Becoming the Empress: Golden Finger Set Under My Bed

Chapter 67. Being Tough is also a Kind of Talent

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Someone dying because of her?

Against the blowing wind, An Rushuang looked down at the abyss. She could even feel numerous demons were climbing upwards from the abyss to tear her into pieces.

In spite of this, she still did not want to turn back and return to the imperial palace where numerous monsters could eat up humans from dignity to souls.

An Rushuang looked down smiling. When she raised her head, her eyes were as bright as burning higan bana.

“People will eventually die; it’s destined or man-made. I only kill those who are bound to go to hell!”

Saying so, she slowly stepped into the abyss and all of a sudden everything turned into darkness.

Looking at the abyss in front of him, the monk took a deep sigh before he waved his hand and said to himself, “Fine!”

Suddenly, the abyss turned into flat land while red higan bana gradually turned black and fell down. When the last petal of bana fell down, the land turned into glittering water.

A girl dressed in blue was lying on the water. Her skin was fair and her eyes closed…

“Miss An, Miss An! Wake up…”

A hoarse voice was heard slowly. It sounded familiar yet strange.

“Lord An is so concerned about you. Lady An also fell sick. Mr. Ye said if you wake up, you’ll be fine. Please wake up, Miss An!”

Then her hand was tightly held and several drops of tears fell on her hand.

“God, it’s all my fault. Please let me suffer those for Miss An. My lady, I owe you so much that even though I spend my whole life, I cannot return your favour.”

Saying so, she began to cry.

But she didn't realize the girl in the bed was frowning and slowly opened her eyes. Against the bright sunlight outside, An Rushuang slightly blinked her eyes before she saw Zhao Xiaotao crying sadly at her bedside.

“Silly girl, what are you saying…”

With eyes wide open, Zhao Xiaotao stammered, “Miss An…Miss An has woken up!”

Rushing into the room, Hong Yu hurried to her, “Miss An!”

Both of them said in a hoarse voice. They must have cried for a long time. Hong Yu held An Rushuang’s hand and said, “Miss An! I’m so worried about you! How…”

Not having finished the sentence, Hong Yu was patted on the shoulder by Nanny Liu, “Behave yourself in front of Miss An!”

Then Nanny Liu turned to An Rushuang and saw her pale face, “Do not bother Miss An. Call Mr. Ye here and prepare red date porridge. Miss An needs rest now.”

Zhao Xiaotao said quickly, “I run fast and I’ll go for Mr Ye.”

Although Hong Yu still wanted to stay with Miss An, she also agreed with Nanny Liu. So she said, “I’ll go to the kitchen…”

Then they both left the room.

Seeing Nanny Liu’s red eyes, An Rushuang reached out to hold her hands and said, “Nanny Liu, I’m all right…”

Saying so, An Rushuang tried to get up, but she was too weak to pull herself up from the bed.

Seeing this, Nanny Liu hurried to help her and put a pillow under her head, “Miss An, why bother getting up? Please take a rest.”

Shaking her head, An Rushuang looked out of the window. The sun was setting in the west, surrounded by bright golden light.

“Did I sleep for a whole day?”

She felt her body was so heavy and weak. It was just a second in the dream. However, it might have been a day in real life.

Wiping her tears, Nanny Liu said, “Miss An, you’ve been slept for three whole days. Everyone in the An Family is worried about you… please do not risk your life in the future.”

“Three days? It might be too late for…” said An Rushuang in a surprise.

She turned to Nanny Liu, “Hurry up! I have to see my dad! Is he at home now?”

Saying so, An Rushuang wanted to get out of bed, but she was soon stopped by Nanny Liu. “Ah! My good girl, please take care. If you have something to tell Lord An, I can ask him to come here. Lord and Lady are also concerned about you. They were here looking after you, but today Lady An fell ill and they left… ”

Thinking of Lady An, Nanny couldn't help taking a sigh. Miss An’s sickness seemed to have drained Lady An.

“How’s my mum? I want to see her!”

An Rushuang suddenly thought of what the monk said, “Every step you take forward, there’ll be someone dying because of you.”

Suddenly she felt so cold that she couldn't even help shivering.

Seeing her reaction, Nanny Liu said hurriedly, “Rest assured, Miss An. Lady An is okay. She is just too tired these days. As long as she takes enough sleep, she’ll be fine.”

Hearing this, An Rushuang finally calmed down and looked up to her, “You’re not lying, are you?”

“My little girl, why would I lie to you? Take care and go for your mum tomorrow. You couldn't even stand today. If you go for her, Lady An will worry about you!”

Pulling the pillow under An Rushuang’s back, Nanny Liu adjusted it so that An Rushuang could feel more comfortable.

“All you need is to take rest and eat well. Wait for Mr. Ye. Only after he says you are fine, can I be assured.”

However, An Rushuang still had one thing in her heart. Looking at the doorstep, she didn't see Zhao Xiaotao. Suddenly she felt a bit down.

“Nanny Liu, how about Xiaotao’s mum?”

Looking at Nanny Liu, An Rushuang was so anxious.

Nanny Liu immediately understood what she was thinking about. Looking at her pale face, Nanny Liu didn't even know how to respond. At this time, she didn't care herself; she was now still worrying about Xiaotao’s mum.

“Miss An…”

Calling her, Nanny Liu touched Rushuang’s hair with her rough hands. She said in tears, “What should I say? Miss An, please put yourself first. If anything bad happens to you again, how should I…”

Saying so, Nanny Liu began to cry. Although An Rushuang was worried about Xiaotao’s mum, she couldn't ask more, “Nanny Liu, it’s just an accident. I won’t have such a bad luck to meet all the villains in the capital.”

“Don’t push your luck, missy. Buddha, please forgive her. She was talking nonsense…” said Nanny Liu.

Seeing An Rushuang didn't have any reaction, Nanny Liu urged, “Come on! Pray for yourself! Do not say those things.”

At a time, An Rushuang didn't even know whether to cry or laugh. So she prayed for Buddha’s bless as Nanny Liu said.

Meanwhile, Zhao Xiaotao brought Ye Chengzhi here. Followed by Ye Chengzhi, Zhao Xiaotao walked ahead with a medicine kitwhile Ye Chengzhi slowly walked in, carrying an old man on his back.

Glancing at An Rushuang, the old man hummed, “Being tough is also a kind of talent.”

The old man was exactly Bian Wen.
