"I don't hate him."

Chapter 191 I want to thank God, because it let me meet you.

Su Murong told the little Vermilion Bird the old story again.

She had told Xiao Zhuque many stories before, but most of them were about her and her mother, and she rarely told stories about Yang Pingsheng.

“At that time, my mother was sick, and we had no money. I couldn’t make straw sandals as well as my mother, and no one wanted to hire me. I had no choice but to steal, cheat, and rob. Later, after trying many methods, I was hungry and came up with a stupid idea.”

“I put up a sign at the city gate offering to sell myself to bury my father.”

“I know it was a stupid move. After all, that’s Liuyun City, the most remote place. War is the main theme there, and human life is worthless. People die every day, so selling myself to bury my father won’t arouse people’s sympathy. No one would want to spend money to buy a thin maid. They would rather spend money to buy Five-Color Powder. I did it with a gambler’s mentality, thinking that maybe someone who had never been to Liuyun City would take a liking to me and buy me. At the time, I even thought that if that person offered a lot of money, I would be fine even if I sold myself, as long as that person could save my mother.”

"Then, he appeared."

“He was carrying a medical kit, wearing only thin clothes and a bag, and he would cough after walking a few steps. He originally wanted to go into the city, but then he stopped in front of me.”

Suzaku asked curiously, "What did the master say at that time?"

"I did say that," Su Murong said with a faint smile. "I said, 'Look at your mother.'"

"My lord!" Suzaku exclaimed in shock, "So you were always this rude?"

"What are you talking about?" Su Murong flicked her forehead. "In those times and in those places, a slender lady couldn't survive."

"What then?"

"Later... he asked me a lot of stupid questions. I was extremely impatient because he asked me, 'Where did your father die?' I never thought anyone would ask me such a detailed question, so I pointed out a pile of corpses at the city gate to him, trying to teach him that his nitpicking was annoying."

Did he believe it?

"do not know."

"do not know?"

"Yeah, because I tricked him into turning around, and then I hit him with a stick."

"My lord, you are good, but you are bad!"

"Yeah, I'm so bad," Su Murong laughed. "After all, seeing how serious this guy was and how weak he was, I had a bad idea, so I knocked him out and stole his package."

"Is he alright?"

"It's nothing. I just want money and don't want to hurt anyone. I'll just hide and watch him secretly until I'm sure he's alright before I leave."

“If that’s the case, he must hate you. Look, sir, you robbed him of his money and injured him. If I were him, I would be furious.”

"Yes, that's right."

"Then, my lord, what kind of person is he?"

"Him..."

he……

What should she say?

Yang Pingsheng was a man who looked frail and weak.

The North reveres the strong; the men are burly, broad-shouldered, and exude masculine beauty.

Compared to them, Yang Pingsheng was too thin and weak.

Moreover, he is stupid and easily fooled.

I was fooled by myself the first time I met him.

Then, Suzaku, guess what people said about him after he entered the city?

They called him a big fat sheep.

The children all liked him because he would rather go hungry himself than not share his food with them.

He was so stupid. Some lies that even a three-year-old wouldn't believe, but he believed them.

Later, I couldn't stand it anymore and stepped in to help him out.

I scolded him, called him stupid, and said he was dumb, but he didn't seem to listen at all and went to buy me candy.

Just because I told him my heart was aching and that eating something sweet would make me feel better.

Then, he happily bought it for me! Haha, what an idiot.

Because he was always helping others, he never had enough money in his pocket. The old man at the clinic where he worked was a miser and wouldn't give him any money, so he had no choice but to take another job after sunset every day.

At that time, I worked with him at a tavern.

He's an honest man; he does whatever others tell him to do and eats whatever they give him. But I'm different. Who am I? I often sneak into the kitchen to bring him delicious food. If it weren't for me, he would have been starving long ago.

I worked with him and spent Chinese New Year with him. Later, when my mother became seriously ill, he did everything he could to help me.

He... risked his life to help me. Old Man Qian told me that in order to get him to help, that guy even wanted to sell himself to Old Man Qian.

Yes, he's just that stupid.

He... he's just that stupid.

Haha, after my mother passed away, he was afraid I would be sad, so he moved in with me.

In our area, there's no distinction between men and women. Just surviving is a luxury. Having someone who helps you wholeheartedly is already considered very good, so I don't care about that.

Later, Liuyun City was massacred, and I was rescued by Old Man Qian. After that, I lost contact with him, and that's when I met you.

You'll know what happened next.

So, if you ask me what kind of person he is, I will tell you that he is just this kind of person.

He, well, well...

Just ...

Just ...

he is the one……

"Lord."

The Vermilion Bird's voice rang out.

Su Murong looked up and saw her looking at him with tears streaming down her face, holding his hand, and saying, "My lord, I won't ask anymore, don't be sad."

"..."

She paused for a moment, then raised her hand and touched her tears.

Shadows, embedded in the floor, words and wind, mixed with memories, scattered under the moonlight.

Yang Pingsheng.

Yang Pingsheng.

Yang Pingsheng.

What kind of person are you?

If you are a simple person, then what is the light sphere that you are monitoring me for?

If you are a simple person, then what are you hiding from me?

Who exactly are you?

Where do you come from?

What is your purpose?

Is it really as the mysterious man said, that you have the power of Heaven behind you, and that everything you do is to change me?

I do not understand……

Many, many years ago.

Liuyun City.

The little girl, who had lost her mother, lay in bed, filled with despair.

"Xiao Rong?"

The voice came, but the little girl didn't move.

"Xiao Rong, if you feel bad, just cry it out."

Still no response.

crunch--

The sound of the wooden door being pushed open suggested that the person had gone out.

After a long time, the familiar creaking sound came, and the man returned and lay down next to the little girl.

In the darkness, there was silence for a long time. After a long while, the person's breathing began to become steady.

Only then did the little girl turn around and face him.

She looked at the man, at his face, at his sleeping face, just like that day when she hid in the shadows and secretly watched him give alms to the beggar.

"……Thanks……"

The little girl opened her mouth, her lips barely touching the surface.

"……Thanks."

Thank you for your continued help.

Thank you for taking care of me through thick and thin.

Thank you for your meticulous care.

I know I'm willful and unruly. I've always lied, swore, and had a bad temper. Nobody likes me except my mother.

My life has always been gray. Without my mother, I really don't know what to do.

But you came.

So, I want to say thank you.

Thank God for giving you to me.
