Chapter 70 - 70: 070. That’s my brother-in-law then (first update)
Hearing Yan Shiba’s voice again, Su Liang was quite surprised.
When Yan Sui personally came to kill Ning Jing that time, Su Liang thought Yan Shiba would have little chance of surviving.
Unexpectedly, she was still alive.
And judging by her voice, she seemed to be doing just fine.
The door opened from the inside, and Bai Xiaohu looked at Su Liang with a big grin, “Sister Su Liang, you’re back! Sister Ajiu has been waiting for a long time!”
Sister Ajiu…Su Liang squinted her eyes, only to see the bed meant for patients in the Firewood Room moved out and placed under a tree in the backyard. And resting on it was none other than Yan Shiba.
By her side sat Aunt Bai, holding a bowl and happily feeding Yan Shiba soup?!
Zhuzi stood next to them, concentrating as he clenched his fists and massaged Yan Shiba’s legs?!
Yan Shiba wore one of Su Liang’s dresses, her face having grown thinner since their last meeting. At first glance, she looked gentle, beautiful, and delicate, nothing like the “assassin” she was known to be.
Aunt Bai stood up, looked at Su Liang, and spoke with heartfelt emotion, “Your sister is injured and came to seek your help. You must take good care of her. Having a sister by your side is just wonderful!”
Only then did Su Liang notice that Yan Shiba’s leg looked unnatural, and her right arm seemed motionless.
By the time Ning Jing returned from parking the carriage in the backyard, Aunt Bai and her two grandsons had already left.
Yan Shiba stretched out one hand and looked at Su Liang pitifully, “Liang sister, I almost didn’t get to see you again!”
Upon getting closer, Su Liang discovered that Yan Shiba’s right arm and both legs had been severely injured, rendering her helpless. Although she should be in great pain, it didn’t show on her face.
“Did Yan Sui do it?” Su Liang asked.
Yan Shiba snorted coldly, “I didn’t expect that shameless old bastard to actually poison me! I was thrown off a cliff and almost lost my life!”
Su Liang asked the crucial question, “Who saved you? How did you end up here?”
In this condition, not only was using Martial Arts near impossible, but even simple movements were also difficult. Someone must have saved her and brought her here.
“A very beautiful young man,” Yan Shiba said, with a hint of a smile in her eyes.
Her description sounded strange to Su Liang, “And where is he? He just left you here and went away?”
Yan Shiba seemed irritated, “Despite my repeated requests, he insisted on leaving, as if I would eat him alive!”
Su Liang scoffed lightly, “Isn’t that what you planned to do?”
Yan Shiba winked at Su Liang, “You understand me so well, Sister Liang.” “Who’s Ajiu?” Su Liang asked.
Yan Shiba’s smile deepened, “I told them I’m your sister, and my name is Su
Jiujiu.”
Two nines equal eighteen, how reasonable… Su Liang was nearly speechless.
“Has Yan Sui been here?” Yan Shiba asked.
“He’s dead,” Su Liang answered.
Yan Shiba was stunned, but then she burst into laughter, “Hahaha! I knew it! Sister Liang would definitely help me take revenge!”
“It was Brother Ning,” Su Liang corrected. She didn’t have the ability to kill Yan Sui, it was Ning Jing who did it.
Yan Shiba’s face fell, “What’s with this ‘Brother Ning’? It’s so cheesy! Sister
Liang, speak like a normal person!”
Su Liang:… Isn’t ‘Sister Liang’ cheesy too? Is ‘Brother Ning’ weird? Talk about double standards…
“Where’s the Jade Band?” Yan Shiba asked.
“Here. If you want it, take it,” Su Liang answered succinctly.
However, Yan Shiba shook her head, “What use do I have for it now? I’ll wait until my body has fully recovered!”
“Being injured so badly, it won’t be easy for you to recover,” Su Liang said.
Yan Shiba immediately hugged Su Liang’s arm and shook it, “That’s why I came to find Sister Liang! With you around, of course it’ll be easy! Your Medical Skills are unbeatable!”
As she finished speaking, Yan Shiba nestled her head against Su Liang’s arm, “From now on, I’ll have to rely on you. If you abandon me, I’ll cry for you to
See.
Su Liang’s forehead twitched, and she had a feeling that peaceful days were now far in the future…
“I know, you two are siblings now.”
“We’re still sisters, of course sisters are closer.”
“I can change your last name for you, can he?”
“In the future, if anyone with the Ning surname dares to bully you, I’ll chop them up!”
“Sister won’t forget what you said initially, that you liked the rumored number one handsome man in the capital city, Gu Ling. As long as sister helps you find him, you’ll come with me.”
“No matter where, sister will definitely help you find Mr. Gu and bring him to you to have fun! Let the people with the Ning surname leave!”
Ning Jing in the room snapped a piece of wood he was about to carve while looking through the window at someone clinging to Su Liang. He stabbed the wooden piece with a knife!
If Yan Shiba wasn’t as severely injured and could move on her own, Su Liang would probably just invite her for a meal and let her leave.
But now, this once feared assassin has become a disabled person who can’t take care of herself, lying at Su Liang’s house. Throwing her out would be like sending her to die.
As a doctor, Su Liang decided to challenge herself to see if she could heal Yan Shiba.
But first, they needed to set some rules. “Call me by my name, not Little Sister Liang.”
“Alright, Little Sister Liang.”
“Speak properly, don’t be so affected.”
“I don’t talk like this to others, I only change when I see Little Sister Liang because I like her so much. I’m truly helpless!” “Don’t be so noisy.”
“Little Sister Liang, are you tired of me?”
Su Liang nodded, “Yes! I’ve always been tired of you, can’t you tell?”
Yan Shiba sighed, “It’s okay, I’m your sister. I won’t mind.”
Su Liang: …
Ning Jing didn’t welcome Yan Shiba, but he didn’t drive her away either.
So, Yan Shiba stayed on.
Su Liang devised a treatment plan for her. It wouldn’t be easy. If everything went smoothly, it would still take two or three months to heal.
“In a few days we’re going to the Provincial City. You stay here, and I’ll have Auntie Bai come take care of you. I’ll give her wages,” Su Liang said.
“Ning Jing is going to take an exam, what are you going for, Little Sister Liang? Can you really bear to leave me here alone with no one to care for me? You can go, I’ll just die!” Yan Shiba sighed.
Su Liang was originally considering whether to stay at home and not go with Ning Jing to the Provincial City, but seeing Yan Shiba’s look, she decided to go! Too noisy! She needed to go out for some quiet time.
“This trip was planned a while ago. We’ll be back in at most half a month,” Su Liang said.
Yan Shiba saw Su Liang looking impatient, so she gave up, “Alright, alright. As long as you’re happy, Little Sister Liang.”
“You can stay and help take care of the house,” Su Liang said.
Even though Yan Shiba was temporarily disabled, the hidden weapon of poison needles on her usable left arm could easily deal with small thieves.
Just as Su Liang was thinking about this, Yan Shiba lifted her left arm and said to her, “Take this for self-defense.”
Su Liang refused, “You keep it. I’ll get you a wheelchair tomorrow.”
“Little Sister Liang is so good to me.” Yan Shiba’s face was full of gratitude.
“Tonight, you can only choose to sleep with me or him, who do you choose?”
Su Liang got up and walked out, “Choose your head.”
“You can take it!” Yan Shiba said, but Su Liang had already left the room.
Dinner was served in Yan Shiba’s room. Ning Jing was cleaning up the dishes and Yan Shiba hummed, “Did you hear? She doesn’t like you. Don’t even think about her!”
Ning Jing paid no attention.
Yan Shiba continued, “Someone worthy of my sister would have to be at least like the rumored Gu Ling. It’s perfect since she likes Gu Ling too.. He’s going to be my brother-in-law! Once I find him, you better leave as far away as possible!”
