"You've sustained injuries that've penetrated deep into the marrow; there's no saving it," Xia Ziqi said.
"Really? Don't scare me," Fang Yi responded shamelessly.
Pu-chi, Xia Ziqi couldn't help but burst into laughter, instantly clearing the previously somber atmosphere between them.
Xia Ziqi got up, poured a glass of water, took a sip, and then sat back down on Fang Yi's lap. Extending her jade arms, she wrapped them around Fang Yi's neck and said, "I think I still need to explain things clearly to you."
Fang Yi nodded solemnly.
Xia Ziqi said, "Actually, when I married Cai Cai's father, I was deceived by him, and you know what happened after that. Before that, I was also a rich girl, the youngest child of the Xia family's generation. My elder brother is now the head of the Xia Family, and he is already over forty years old, so my situation is somewhat special."
