The Divine Doctor And A Common Farmer-Chapter 1690 - 1777: Breakdown

Dong Huiying stared straight at Yun Ge, her eyes filled with astonishing heartache. She thought Yun Ge was her best friend, and she herself was Yun Ge’s best friend too. But this so-called "best," this so-called "friend," turned out to be so inadequate.

The care she had for Yun Ge was utterly insignificant compared to how much Yun Ge valued her. She had never realized that Yun Ge’s heart harbored such heavy pain.

And now, as she gazed intently at her eyes, she saw the reflection of herself left in them.

Her desolate pupils mirrored her own image.

Dong Huiying could see that today, this matter regarding Fengsu was like the last straw that broke the camel’s back. And after this incident, Yun Ge was truly, truly, on the verge of collapse!

Her soul was continuously plummeting downwards. Falling incessantly.

To her, living was unbearably painful.

She wanted to help her!!

Dong Huiying took a deep breath, then cupped Yun Ge’s pale face, resting her forehead against Yun Ge’s forehead.

Yun Ge’s eyelashes were thick and curled, like a small fan. They trembled slightly.

Dong Huiying softened her expression and lightened her voice. Her cautious and careful demeanor was as if Yun Ge at this moment was a fragile object. She wanted to cherish her, wanted to be good to her. And even if Yun Ge’s heart was a shattered mirror, she still wanted to use the greatest tenderness she had to smooth over the pain and scars etched into Yun Ge’s heart over the years.

"Yun Ge, have I ever told you this?" Her voice was soft, like a lover’s whisper.

"In this world, everything happens for a reason. You’re shouldering all these sins yourself, but I have to tell you, that’s not right."

"Yun Ge, it’s not your fault."

"Did you hear me?"

"Everyone has their fate, and no matter what has happened, those events that have taken place are absolutely not your fault!"

Yun Ge sobbed, looking back at her in sorrow and despair: "No, you’re wrong. It’s my fault." She laughed low, yet it was a desolate laugh. "You see, Purple Chervil, you can take a mirror and look at your face. What a beautiful face, as lovely as flowers and the moon!"

"But do you remember?"

"That year, because of a bowl of Lotus Seed Soup, you almost lost your life. In the end, although your life was saved, but because your body accumulated too many toxins that couldn’t be cleared, you were disfigured."

"Between you and me, we’ve always known. The reason you were disfigured back then was because you took a blow for me."

"That bowl of lotus seed soup was meant for me, it was meant for me!!"

Yun Ge screamed nearly in frenzy: "Why don’t you remember? And even if you didn’t forget those things before, why put on a pretense of indifference?"

"That was your face, that was your face!!"

"Because of me, you were disfigured!"

"Back then in the Capital, you endured ridicule, discrimination, and mockery all because of me!"

"But why didn’t you care? Why!?"

"Your attitude towards me never changed; you deliberately glossed over everything, acted as if nothing happened!"

"Why, why, why!!"

Yun Ge cried while laughing, laughed while crying.

Yet unknowingly, for whom did she cry, and for whom did she laugh?
