Chapter 1107 - 1101: He Died
Gu Youyou administered an acupuncture treatment to Lord Jie and gave him some pills, and soon he awoke.
Lord Jie opened his eyes, glanced at Gu Youyou, then closed his eyes again. With a sigh and a self-mocking laugh, he said, "Ah, they ended up asking you to come after all. It seems I won’t be dying anytime soon."
Gu Youyou was startled and asked, "Lord Jie, what insurmountable difficulty are you facing, that you would resort to such an extreme measure?"
He propped himself up to sit, his expression extremely weary. His eyes, hollow, gazed at the dark corner of the room and he said, "A few days ago, I received a letter from the eldest. He said the second one was dead. Caught by the Xining Army as a spy and killed by a disorderly sword, not even a complete corpse could be found."
Gu Youyou was suddenly shocked, staring blankly at Lord Jie, her acupuncture needle falling to the ground.
She had thought, since Miss Du was willing to bear Jie Zhonglin’s child, perhaps she could bring them together?
After all, there’s a saying, ’To err is human, to forgive, divine.’
He hadn’t treated Miss Du well before, which was terrible, so she chose to leave him.
