Chapter 16: Every Time He Touched His Scars, His Heart Hurt

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As time passed, he grew numb to his sadness and began to treat Chen Mengtian aloofly.

But no matter what, she was his wife in name and the person who saved him when he was nine years old.

His parents had also sincerely loved their daughter-in-law.

That was why even though Jiang Zebei ignored Chen Mengtian, he still treated her a little differently.

Perhaps it was due to a sense of responsibility.

Because of this responsibility, he never thought about divorcing her, unless it was absolutely necessary.

When Jiang Zebei remembered all the things his parents did to shower love on Chen Mengtian, he felt sad.

His father had suffered from hidden injuries. They were from the time when he was attacked by a fierce beast while he was out hunting.

Then, a year ago, his father’s health suddenly failed, and no matter how much medicine he took, he didn’t get better.

Jiang Zebei could only watch as his father grew thinner and, in the end, lost his life.

He cried, he shouted, and he complained, but nothing helped his father survive.

But this was not what caused his heart to hurt the most.

Before they could even hold a funeral for his father, his mother left together with him.

She only left a letter saying that she was worried that his father would be lonely in the underworld, so she wanted him to bury them together.

At that moment, Jiang Zebei felt his world collapse and like he was the only one left in the world.

He lost his parents in an instant, and they were the only family he had. There was no way he could accept it.

He felt dejected and lost.

But in time, he gritted his teeth and endured it. If it were not for Madam Chen and Big Brother Da Long keeping him company, he did not know how he would have gotten back on his feet.

At that time, where was Chen Mengtian?

He remembered that she was flirting with Chen Qing.

These were Jiang Zebei’s scars, and every time he touched them, his heart hurt.

His parents had left half a year ago, but he was walking forward, just like his parents wanted.

Most of the villagers in Chen Village were honest.

Madam Chen and Chen Long were both illiterate, but Madam Chen snapped him out of his sadness while he was at his most dejected.

She said that his father had taught him martial arts and sent him to school since he was young because he wanted Jiang Zebei to be successful. She also added a whole load of other things.

Chen Long did not have a good head on his shoulders, but he had raw strength and liked Jiang Zebei a lot.

During those days, Chen Long did not go to town to work but instead stayed with him for a long time at home.

Many of his classmates also tried to persuade him to get back on his feet, but Chen Mengtian did not.

At that time, he came to a realization. Letting go of each other would mean sparing each other of misery.

…

Chen Mengtian finished washing her face in the courtyard without any idea what Jiang Zebei was thinking about.

She also did not know just how many things the original owner did to hurt Jiang Zebei in the past.

Even though she received the memories from her body, those were just the important memories. She did not have the details.

Chen Mengtian carried the wooden bucket into the house.

She was thinking about Green Lotus Medical Technique. If she wanted to learn everything in those medical books, she had to start from identifying medicinal herbs.

The key was in those herbs. As long as she got familiar with the herbs, she could be considered halfway through finishing her mission.

Green Lotus Medical Technique was unlike modern medicine. Everything about it involved medicinal herbs.

One small shrub of a medicinal herb could be a lethal weapon, but also a medicine that would save a life.

Once she was familiar with medicinal herbs, she would have to practice the ways to insert the golden and silver needles into the acupressure points.

Using silver needles to treat an illness was alright for her, but golden needles could perform miracles. They were harder to control than silver needles.

Even though Chen Mengtian was a Chinese traditional medicine practitioner before she died, she was not familiar with acupuncture.

Similarly, she could not recognize all the medicinal herbs.

The first thing she needed to do was follow Jiang Zebei into the mountains to see whether there were medicinal herbs there.

She had read some books about medicinal herbs in the dimension the day before, and the information was still fresh in her mind.
