The Love Gu Suddenly Died, and Hope Shattered

The next day,

Ma Yi carried the food box back into the house.

Her eyes were calm, and her expression was normal.

It was as if nothing had happened yesterday.

But upon closer inspection,

But they found her face was very pale, almost bloodless.

Although she hid it very well,

However, his unsteady gait and listless complexion were still immediately noticeable.

On the soft and spacious bed,

Her Mother and Older Sister were lying there.

Sleeping soundly, sleeping sweetly.

The sun was already high in the sky, but there was no sign of me waking up.

It is conceivable that

They had such a wild time with the young master last night.

Ma Yi glanced at it quickly, then immediately lowered her head again.

A fleeting glimpse of envy, jealousy, and resentment crossed his eyes.

"Young master, it's time to eat."

Ma Yi spoke in a soft, gentle voice.

"Just leave it there."

Gao Yunyi remained seated by the window, resting his chin on his hand and gazing out.

Ma Yi put down the food box.

Instead of turning away, he squatted down and opened the food box.

She took out a small bowl from inside.

The small bowl contained a bowl of hot soup, emitting an enticing aroma.

This is a bowl of ginseng chicken soup, which is very nourishing.

Ma Yi placed the ginseng soup in front of Gao Yunyi and spoke respectfully and gently.

"Young master, you must be tired from last night. Have a bowl of ginseng soup to replenish your energy."

Gao Yunyi then turned his head back and took a deep look at Ma Yi, who was looking down and dared not look at him.

He actually knew very well what the other person was thinking.

After all, he's not the kind of clueless straight man.

Unfortunately, this dark-skinned, short-haired tomboy was not his target.

His task was to make him a scoundrel who accomplished his mission and left without a trace, leaving behind only the tears of his beloved.

Since it's destined to hurt a woman,

He would definitely choose those wicked women with hearts of snakes and venom.

Ma Yi is right.

She's just a good girl and shouldn't be deceived and manipulated.

Thinking of this, Gao Yunyi smiled inexplicably.

I never imagined that I would have a scumbag boyfriend with principles and morals.

It's worth having a drink for yourself.

Let's use soup instead of a bar.

Then,

Gao Yunyi accepted the ginseng tea offered by Ma Yi with both hands and drank it all in one gulp without any suspicion.

And you know what?

This pheasant and ginseng soup tastes really good.

Ma Yi is so thoughtful.

Then we absolutely cannot lay a hand on her.

Although Ma Yi had her head down, her eyes were fixed on the small bowl, her hands clenched so tightly that she didn't even notice her nails digging into her skin.

Her heart was pounding like a drum, and her forehead was covered in sweat.

Until he watched the young master finish the ginseng soup in his bowl,

When the small bowl was handed over, Ma Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had been pulled out of the water.

Now that you've drunk the ginseng soup that the other person carefully prepared, you should naturally show them some concern.

Why are you sweating so much?

Gao Yunyi asked.

Upon hearing this,

Mai Ma Yi and said, "It's hot... too hot."

"Is it hot?"

Gao Yunyi felt the cool breeze blowing in from the window.

"Um."

Little Ma Yi stubbornly retorted.

Why do you look so pale?

Gao Yunyi asked again.

"I didn't sleep well last night, I had insomnia."

Faced with the young master's sudden concern, Xiao Ma Yi seemed very unaccustomed to it, and even her tongue got tied in knots.

After hearing Ma Yi's explanation, Gao Yunyi simply smiled and remained silent.

"Then, young master, I shall take my leave now."

Ma Yi just wanted to get out of there as soon as possible; every second felt like torture to her.

"Um."

Gao Yunyi turned his head back to the window and softly hummed in agreement.

Upon hearing the answer,

Ma Yi let out a heavy sigh of relief, then hurriedly tidied up the small bowls and fled the house.

This strange behavior is too abnormal.

Before, she couldn't wait to stay by the young master's side, but now she avoids him like the plague, not wanting to stay for even a second longer.

How could Gao Yunyi not see it?

But he didn't care about these trivial matters at all.

It seemed that the conversation had woken the mother and daughter in bed.

Ma Wa and Ma Die opened their sleepy eyes and sat up in bed, exhausted and in pain.

I wonder if it's because I drank the ginseng soup.

Gao Yunyi felt his interest had been rekindled.

Do you hate me?

Gao Yunyi asked the mother and daughter on the bed.

"My Lord Beast God, you must be joking. We are overjoyed to serve you, how could we possibly hate you?"

Ma Wa's eyes sparkled with admiration and reverence.

Upon hearing this, Gao Yunyi felt no joy whatsoever; instead, his expression darkened slightly.

The task required him to observe human love, hate, joy, sorrow, and happiness, and to experience the seven emotions and six desires of ordinary people.

But now,

These two women had only love and joy in their eyes, without a trace of hatred or sorrow.

This is clearly not right.

Was he not hitting me hard enough, or abusing me deeply enough?

Thinking about this,

Gao Yunyi frowned slightly, then picked up the soft whip at his feet.

He got up and walked towards them.

At the same time,

Ma Yi ran back to her room with a nervous and fearful heart.

After closing the door tightly,

She collapsed to the ground like a fish out of water, panting heavily.

My heart is pounding.

The back of my clothes was soaked with sweat.

Last night,

She almost exhausted Essence Blood in order to induce the birth of the Love Gu, to the point that she fainted due to excessive blood loss.

Fortunately, her efforts paid off.

She succeeded.

The Love Gu has produced an egg. If the young master ingests the egg, he will develop feelings for her.

She didn't want to do that.

But she had no choice.

She did everything she could, but the young master still had no feelings for her whatsoever.

The thought of how the young master looked at her yesterday, as if she were a cold, lifeless stone, made her...

Ma Yi felt so heartbroken she couldn't breathe.

This was her last trump card; she was betting everything, and success or failure hinged on this.

Even if it is eventually exposed and incurs the young master's hatred,

It's better than those cold, indifferent eyes.

Ma Yi took a deep breath.

She stretched out her trembling hands and pulled her Natal Gu from her clothes.

But soon,

All the excitement and anticipation on her face vanished.

It was all because of that Natal Gu she had carefully chosen, that Love Gu that carried her hopes and obsessions.

He died.

It transformed from a soft, cuddly little silkworm into a hard, unyielding shell.

"How could this happen? How could this happen?"

The Love Gu died suddenly, and hope was shattered.

Ma Yi's entire body, along with the lifeless silkworm corpse, froze on the spot, her face filled with despair and death.

Suddenly,

A mouthful of blood spurted from her mouth.

Spray it on her hands, spray it on the lifeless silkworm corpse.

Ma Yi fell to the ground.

Like a withered and dying weed, it went unnoticed and uncared for.

But her eyes,

It did not die out like a dying ember in the wind.

Instead, it exudes a deep, overwhelming grief and intense hatred born from love turned to hate.
