She swore that she wouldn’t let Lin Sisi live like this forever.
“I don’t want to! I’d rather die!” Lin Sisi screamed, her voice breaking, and with every word, blood seeped from her lips.
She coughed violently, and her eyes were almost swollen shut.
But even with her blurred vision, her gaze fixed on the door.
Chu Jinling had told her to wait, and she… wanted to wait for him.
She was afraid. Afraid that he would be frightened away, leaving her forever.
“Sisi, don’t look!” Lin Aotian sighed heavily, glancing at Su Yingxue. “Dr. Su, go ahead.”
“I don’t want this! Dr. Su, please wait for Jinling. I’ll wait for him…”
“You’re running out of time.”
Su Yingxue, with a solemn expression, looked at Lin Sisi’s face.
Taking a deep breath, she opened her eyes once more and approached Lin Sisi with a dagger.
Though Lin Sisi wanted to resist, Lin Aotian sealed her acupoints, rendering her immobile.
As Su Yingxue’s blade neared her face, tears blurred Lin Sisi’s vision, and she closed her eyes in despair.
“Sisi!”
Chu Jinling rushed in at lightning speed, tripping over a screen in his excitement.
He landed at Lin Sisi’s feet, eating a mouthful of dust, then hurriedly lifted the item in his hand. “Sisi, my father has decreed our marriage. You have to marry me, you can’t run away… Hiss!”
The wound on his face had been hastily treated, and his excited speech now elicited a surge of pain.
Su Yingxue quickly helped him up, casting a curious look at Chu Jinling’s injured face. Before she could question him, Chu Jinling limped over to Lin Sisi, unfurling the imperial edict. “Look, Father has bestowed you with marriage to me. You’re my imperial consort. No matter what you become in the future, you have to marry me!”
Lin Sisi glanced at Lin Aotian, who promptly released her acupoints.
Struggling to open her eyes, all she could see was a yellow blur, and she wept in frustration. “I… I can’t see!”
The pain on Chu Jinling’s face intensified. “Let me read it to you. In the Lin family, there’s a daughter, gentle, graceful, elegant, dignified, and wise…”
“Let me see!”
Lin Aotian snatched the imperial edict from Chu Jinling’s hand, scanning the words and focusing on the red seal to confirm its authenticity.
He laughed with relief. “Sisi, this is truly the emperor’s imperial edict, granting you the title of Imperial Consort!”
“That’s right! Father-in-law wouldn’t deceive you, right? What else is there to worry about?”
Chu Jinling smoothly changed his tune. Lin Aotian was momentarily taken aback.
Realizing the situation, he hastily patted Chu Jinling’s back. “Of course! The Ninth Prince is already my son-in-law! If he dares to mistreat you, I’ll help you seek justice!”
Chu Jinling’s martial skills were mediocre, and after being slapped by Lin Aotian a few times, he erupted into a fit of coughing.
He struggled to concur. “I… won’t let you down!”
With Lin Aotian as his father-in-law, he would think twice about any abandonment.
Moreover, he had no intention of doing so!
Approaching Lin Sisi, he cupped her face and tenderly kissed her. “Don’t worry, no matter how you look, you are my one and only Imperial Consort.”
Tears blurred Lin Sisi’s vision, but her smile carried a trace of happiness.
She gently parted her lips. “Dr. Su, proceed. I’m not afraid anymore.”
Su Yingxue nodded solemnly. “Understood.”
She glanced at Chu Jinling and inquired, “Will you stay and watch?”
The process of purging the poison was not for the faint of heart.
Chu Jinling smiled faintly. “I’ll stay with her. Otherwise, she’ll be frightened.”
As he spoke, he tightly held Lin Sisi’s hand..
