My expression was a little desolate. “Why not? Banxia, my body isn’t doing well. You’ve seen it yourself. I don’t want to travel anymore. I want to have a stable life here. My parents left such a wonderful place for me. Why should I leave?
“However, I can understand it if you want to leave. I won’t stop you. You’re still young. You should go out to see the world. In fact, you don’t even need to make finding Ma Ji your goal. Why don’t you go and explore the world on your own? I can sponsor you.”
Banxia’s eyes brightened, then darkened. “How can I do that? How can I leave Miss? Miss has given me my life, so how can I leave Miss?”
I chuckled. “Banxia, we’ve been through thick and thin together. I only wish for you to be happy. I’ll be happy if you’re happy.”
Banxia looked at me doubtfully. “Miss, are you serious?”
I nodded slightly. “I don’t have any memories and don’t remember the past. However, I do remember you. We’ve been living together for years, so of course, I wish you well. Don’t worry. Vincent told me that I have a lot of money. In fact, the island we escaped from didn’t actually belong to my uncle but my
parents too.”
Banxia’s eyes became brighter and brighter.
Tasked, “So, are you still going to look for Ma Ji?”
Banxia’s eyes flashed. “But, but, but –”
I patted her. “What is there to worry about? Don’t you want to see the world? Why would you return to Ma Ji’s side and live under her terror again?”
“What about you?” Banxia’s expression changed.
“Me? I’ll stay here. I still need Mr. Li to cure the poison in my body, and I still need Doctor Lin Ran to treat my injuries. So, Banxia, if you want to leave, then I’ll get someone to send you off. You don’t need to release any signal flares. What if my little uncle saw you as a threat and killed you?”
Banxia’s eyes shrank.
I didn’t rush her. “Banxia, there’s no rush. You can think about it. When you’re ready, come and find me.”
Banxia lowered her head slowly.
I pulled the blanket aside and got out of bed carefully. Banxia didn’t even care about the injury on my back. She just stood there in a daze.
I went to the closet and picked out a light green dress. The design and tailoring were very good. It was obvious that it was expensive. I heard Kong Yun and the other ladies talk about it at the banquet the other day. These things were probably the center of their lives.
Daisy was very good at these things. She prepared clothes and accessories to match my temperament and status. Banxia didn’t understand these things, but she was envious.
I turned around and smiled at her. “Banxia, the people on this island wear beautiful clothes. I couldn’t believe my eyes when we were at the banquet. We didn’t have these things on the island.”
Banxia swallowed unnaturally.
I sighed softly. “It’s a pity that I’m sick, and nothing looks good on me. This pink dress is similar to the one I wore to the banquet. I think it looks better on you. Come and try it on!”
I picked out a dress and stuffed it into Banxia’s hands.
Banxia’s face shone with desire..
