When there was no antidote to the poison, the onset of the poison would be frequent.
It was the most malicious way to torture a girl.
She was injured. Though she was conscious, her leg was fractured. She needed a long time to recover. He placed her in the cave and walked around everywhere to find herbs to neutralise the poison.
He could tell that the girl knew about medicine but only at the beginner level. She was not skilled at medicine.
To neutralise the poison by herself was impossible.
He must help her.
He was not very skilled back then, though he was better than his father, Gu Chonghua. He was still specialised in neutralising such a poison.
But he loved studying weird subjects when he was young and remembered seeing such poison in an ancient book. He was still wondering whether such poison existed in the world when he was reading the book.
He then studied it for a while.
But it was lucky that he did some study and knew where to start when he met the girl.
He tried many different ways to come up with the antidote. It took him three months to neutralise the poison.
When he succeeded, he did not know whether he should be happy or sad.
He fell in love with her after spending three months with her.
He would go to the mountain almost every day to take care of her and satisfy all her needs. He tried his best to make her life better.
Of course, he hid his real intention. He hoped that she would accept him. He would be responsible for her and was willing to do anything for her.
In order to find the herbs to make the antidote, he ran around everywhere in the mountains. He almost fell to death multiple times, but he did not give up.
Girls would really be touched by a man’s true love and care. After more than half a month, she was softer on him. And she started to accept him after one month.
He was delighted and determined to get the girl. After spending such a long time together, he really fell in love with her.
It was rare to meet someone who shared the same interests and values as him. They could chat about the same things. How could he not fall in love?
Love came fast. Soon they fell in love with each other. They looked forward to meeting each other all the time. After some time, there was only love and sweetness.
Those were the best three months in his life.
Her leg was recovering, and she wanted to leave for some time to look for her family. He wanted to go with her, but she did not agree. She said it was not the right time yet. He should wait for her to return.
She was pregnant for more than a month back then.
He brought her somewhere before she left.
Staring at the marriage certificate from more than ten years ago, Gu Yunshen felt it was ridiculous, especially with the things that happened when he was young.
But soon he smiled with sadness.
‘Our daughter has grown up, and she has reached the age of getting married. Do you still remember us?’
