Chapter 1248: Chapter 1243: Brother Yu is Only Valuable When Alive
Su Miaoyan saw Xiao Yu’s resoluteness and suddenly made a decision in her heart. Her delicate arms wrapped around Xiao Yu’s neck, and she deeply kissed him. Xiao Yu sank into his reluctance to part with her. He knew that this separation would be forever.
But suddenly, he felt a pain at the back of his neck. By the time he realized something was wrong, Su Miaoyan had already laid his body down.
Su Miaoyan, frail from lying in his arms for many days, supported every movement she made with sheer willpower.
“Yan’er, what are you doing…”
Xiao Yu felt the world spinning before his eyes, and he began to feel dizzy.
Su Miaoyan started to remove his outer robe, then she covered him with a transformation cloth.
...
Ying San, who had been monitoring the situation outside, now came in, ready to ask Xiao Yu, “Young master, when are we breaking out… Madam?”
He realized the person sitting up in front of him wasn’t Xiao Yu, but the frail madam who could only survive by being held.
Su Miaoyan put her index finger to her lips and said in a husky voice, “Wait a moment, let me speak a few more words with Brother Yu.”
She looked down at the man sleeping on her lap, her eyes full of warm love. She cracked a smile, “Brother Yu, you forgot, Sister Xue is so skilled. I used to follow her around, and Sister Xue taught me about a place called the sleep acupoint. Press hard on it, and someone will slowly fall asleep, just like you are now.”
Su Miaoyan cradled his head, feeling that Xiao Yu was about to fall asleep.
Xiao Yu, his mind foggy, mumbled, “No… Yan’er, don’t.”
What silly thing was she doing!
“Promise me, okay? You must not let Ningning become an orphan. My Brother Yu… you must survive.”
Su Miaoyan pressed her forehead against his, tears unable to form, “Brother Yu, let me protect you just this once.”
Just this once.
After crying, she covered Xiao Yu with the transformation cloth and stood up. Seeing the place where Xiao Yu lay blend in with the yellow soil, she smiled with relief, “Such a treasure, able to save lives.”
Ying San, watching this scene, was utterly shocked. “Madam! What are you…”
She had put the young master to sleep with an acupoint; was she planning to charge out with them?
Once they left the canyon, it was a path of certain death!
“Madam, we are going to die, turned into a feast for the Gu corpses. Why are you doing this?”
Ying San, using his sword to support his weary body, knelt on the ground.
“I’m not afraid!”
Su Miaoyan fastened Xiao Yu’s outer robe, her hoarse laugh tinged with a hint of lightness, “Brother Yu has protected me for a long time and even allowed me to have Ningning. This time… it’s my turn to protect him, okay?”
Ying San was stunned. His eyes reddened and tears could no longer be held back.
Biting his lip, he knelt down and bowed deeply to Su Miaoyan, “Madam… profoundly righteous!”
“Not really…” Su Miaoyan turned around, looking back at Xiao Yu’s place with lingering affection. She didn’t want to leave either, but her eyes were filled with satisfaction, “To have been with Brother Yu so long and had a child, I’m already very content. But I can’t let my beloved husband die for me. He needs to survive to better cherish Ningning and to seek justice for these innocent people.”
Along their journey, too many had been sacrificed in their protection.
In the balance between her and Xiao Yu, her value was negligible.
Only if her Brother Yu survived, would everything have a chance to flourish.
