Bab 23: Reasons
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Hua Shu reconstructed her words and pretended to be depressed. She lowered her eyes to hide the emotions in her eye and said in a low voice, "I'm really sad about Grandma He's death. I've been sick for the past few days, and my mind has been in a daze and I keep having nightmares. The past scenes, whether good or bad, have all been replayed in my dreams. It's as if I've experienced another lifetime. The feelings in my heart are really hard to describe."
After hearing what Hua Shu said, He Ling understood. She herself had been abandoned and had once been as weak as Hua Shu. However, she had been painstakingly taught by her mother since she was a child, so even though she had experienced all sorts of emotions over the past twenty years, she no longer felt inferior and weak. Instead, she had become more gentle and tenacious.
"Looking back at my past, I understand one thing. People who feel inferior and weak will never succeed. That's why I want to change. One day, I will become a strong person." Hua Shu's tone was firm and her expression was solemn. What she said before was half true and half false, but what she said now was from the bottom of her heart.
With space and the heavenly eye, Hua Shu firmly believed that she would definitely become a strong person.
He Ling nodded her head in approval. "I believe in you. You will definitely succeed."
Although her words were mostly encouraging, she really thought highly of Hua Shu. As long as she had a firm heart and was not afraid of setbacks, she would not have to worry about money and clothing.
After this conversation, He Ling was relieved, and Hua Shu no longer had any worries either. She just needed to slowly reveal herself day by day, so that everyone could gradually get used to it.
After He Ling left, Hua Shu could not wait to close the door, turn off the lights, and enter her space.
There was no time for cultivation. Hua Shu sat in the meditation room for more than twenty days, and the outside world turned from night to day. She only slowly stopped when she sensed someone knocking on the door.
After checking her cultivation, Hua Shu could not help but feel delighted. After a night of cultivation, even though the speed of cultivation while refining spiritual energy was much slower, it still allowed her to break through two stages in a row, she was now at the middle stage of the eighth level of the Qi Refinement realm.
What made her happiest was that after cultivating like this, the spiritual energy stored in her body was the most essential, so she did not need to spend time refining it again. Although the speed of her advancement was much slower than before, she could clearly feel that it was easier to break through the bottleneck during these two advancements. Moreover, after she broke through, she did not feel as flimsy as before. It was probably because she advanced too quickly that her foundation was unstable, right? From the looks of it, one could not focus solely on the path of cultivation.
There were a few knocks on the door again that snapped Hua Shu out of her thoughts. She restrained her aura and at the same time, she took another blindfold on her body. Only then did she think of leaving the space.
She hurriedly took a few steps to open the door and saw He Ling anxiously raising her hand. She was about to knock on the door again.
Seeing Hua Shu appear in front of her, He Ling heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Little Shu, you finally opened the door. I thought your condition had gotten worse and it almost worried me to death."
After knocking on the door for so long, there was still no response. She thought that Hua Shu was too ill and possibly unconscious. She had already decided that if there was still no response, she would have to knock on the door.
"I'm sorry, Auntie He. I slept too soundly," Hua Shu said rather apologetically.
It was all her fault for being too engrossed in cultivation and not paying attention to the time outside. This time, she was reminded that she had to carefully calculate the time next time.
"It's fine, it's fine." He Ling waved her hand carelessly, "It's fine as long as you're okay. I'm just here to tell you that I'll take Little Bin and the other two to the city to see a Chinese doctor later. Keep an eye on Little Fan. There's food in the fridge. If we're not back by noon, you can heat it up and eat with Little Fan. There's no need to wait for us."
