Bab 1354: Her Wish Was Finally Granted

Chu Yi and Chu Qi helped him back to his bedroom, Chu Jiu following them. After helping him wash his face and feet, she tucked him into bed.

Zhao Qian was her savior.

She could never forget the events that had happened back when she was nine.

Following the conviction and beheading of her father, her home was raided and confiscated. The men were exiled, while the women were taken into the Royal Academy as servants.

Her ill mother struggled to raise her until she turned nine.

When her mother could no longer work, the matron of the Royal Academy tried to sell her to a brothel in exchange for money.

She remembered being dragged out into the snow. Her mother, despite her illness, ran out to stop her from being taken away but ended up being beaten up.

She lunged at her captors like a maniac, only to be battered even more viciously.
