Qin Ruohan suddenly ordered coldly.

“Cancel it.”

Qin Shi suddenly looked at Qin Ruohan in surprise, and the frustration in his heart instantly dissipated.

“Noted. I’ll do it immediately.”

He knew it—that Little Mute was spouting nonsense. How could she know how to tell fortunes?

Most of the fortune-tellers in the world were charlatans.

After Qin Shi left, Qin Ruohan could not help but think of Ye Caitang’s exquisite facial features and fair skin.

Especially that lass’ big and bright doe eyes that sparkled like stars. They were lively and charming, and extremely seductive.

Those beautiful big eyes always gave him an indescribable sense of familiarity.

Late at night, Qin Ruohan suddenly woke up in fear from his sleep.

He turned on the bedside lamp and poured a glass of red wine. He walked to the French window with loneliness and coldness, and looked at the slightly cold moonlight outside the window.

He had a dream. He dreamed of something that had happened 10 years ago.

Those were memories that he had deliberately forgotten.

Back then, when he was 15 years old, he was kidnapped and tortured until he was on the verge of death. Because of his good looks, he was spared from his original fate of death and sold by the greedy kidnappers to human traffickers who were operating a sex business in the countryside.

At that time—even though he was covered in wounds—he was fancied by a disgusting and perverted nouveau riche. The human traffickers forced him to service the nouveau riche.

He refused and was badly beaten up again. At that time, a young pretty lass stood up and expressed her willingness to persuade him to service the nouveau riche with him.

He was already a young man, while the girl was very young and looked to be about only seven or eight years old.

Her bright doe eyes—sparkling like the stars—were exceptionally beautiful and carried a trace of innocence. The nouveau riche immediately took a fancy to the girl and agreed to her request.

He had initially hated this nosy little girl. But after entering the room, the little girl cleverly knocked out the nouveau riche and escaped with him.

Later, the little girl brought him back to her home in the countryside to recuperate. The girl’s house only had a nanny who did not respect the girl, and her food and clothes were terrible.

The girl’s nanny was also unwilling to take care of him. She did not give him food or medicine.

In order to take care of him, the girl would give him half of her food every time.

She even specially went to the elderly TCM [4. TCM refers to Traditional Chinese Medicine] practitioner next door to seek medical advice on how to treat his injuries.

In order to treat his injuries…

Every morning, the girl would run up the mountain before dawn to help the elderly TCM practitioner pick herbs and beg him to treat him.

The girl was very smart and quickly learned to recognize a lot of herbs. In order to treat him, she would go up the mountain to search for herbs for him every day.

Every time that he did not want to drink the bitter Chinese medicine, the girl would sweetly call him Big Brother.

His injuries were very serious and he was malnourished. The girl took care of him for more than a month before he could barely get out of bed.

He wanted to repay the girl, so he used the elderly TCM practitioner’s cell phone to contact his family to pick him up from the girl’s house. He also arranged for them to bring her home with him.

The night before he was about to bring the girl home, the nanny found out that she was about to lose her job and committed arson. In order to save the girl, he suffered severe burns and was sent back to the Capital overnight for emergency treatment.

At that time, he suffered burns on more than 50% of his body. Other than his face and arms, he suffered burns everywhere else.

It took three years of multiple skin graft surgeries to remove all the burn marks on his body.

After his recovery, he immediately went back back to the countryside—based on his memory—to look for the girl. Unfortunately, the girl’s house was in ruins, and her whereabouts were unknown.

In fact, it was unknown if she was dead or alive.

At that time, he hated his family for not bringing the girl to the Capital for emergency treatment. Back then, the fire was so intense that he almost died.. How could a girl without any kith or kin survive?
