At noon, the servants went out early to buy daily necessities and food. Li Ming and the others probably didn’t take a blind person seriously, as they didn’t leave anyone to watch over them. Chen Chen entered through the back door smoothly.

“Young Master, the Old Master…” Chen Chen lowered his head and spoke with difficulty. “He’s gone.”

After hearing and confirming this fact for the second time, Jiang’s face was deathly pale. After a long time, determination returned to his eyes. The grief and despair turned into forbearance that was carved into his bones, waiting for the day when it would erupt.

Jiang Ye took a deep breath. “I have known about this.”

Ignoring Chen Chen’s surprised expression, Jiang Ye continued, “Tang Xue is my wife now, Chen Chen. In the future, you will see her as you see me.”

Jiang Ye gently held Tang Shuang’s hand, his eyes revealing a trace of gentleness.

Chen Chen looked at Tang Shuang, shock and disbelief in his eyes. He opened his mouth. “But she…”

As Jiang Ye’s most trusted person, Chen Chen had naturally met Tang Xue before. In order to make Tang Xue happy, Jiang Ye had even asked him to buy many things for her. He was sure that he had not mistaken her for someone else.

The woman in front of him was not Tang Xue!

When she led him in at the back door, Chen Chen thought the woman was a maid or another trusted subordinate of the young master.

But why did Young Master say that she was his wife?!

Seeing Chen Chen’s shocked gaze, Tang Shuang hurriedly raised her index finger in front of her lips, hinting for him to shut up.

Chen Chen did not know if he should listen to ‘Tang Xue’ or tell Jiang Ye his doubts.

While he was conflicted, he did not say that Tang Shuang was not Tang Xue.

“Xue’er, if you have anything to say, you can type it out on your phone. If there’s anything you want Chen Chen to do, you can tell him.” Jiang Ye did not notice the strange interaction between the two people in front of him.

Chen Chen looked at ‘Tang Xue’ in confusion, not understanding what this fake ‘Tang Xue’ was going to say.

Tang Shuang typed something on her phone and handed it to Chen Chen—

“There’s a possibility that Jiang Ye’s eyes can see again. I need some medicinal herbs.”

Chen Chen was utterly shocked. He was so excited that he almost jumped up. “Young Master, this woman… Madam said that your eyes can be cured!”

Jiang Ye was stunned. He did not expect Tang Xue to say such a thing. His eyes could see again? But even the best ophthalmologist in Hai City said that his eyes could not be cured…

“Xue’er, I know you want me to see again.” Jiangye forced a smile, but there was loneliness and sadness in it. “But I really can’t see again.”

Jiang Ye thought that Tang Xue was probably disgusted with him.

No matter how much Tang Xue loved him, she could not accept the fact that he was blind.

Actually, he wanted to tell her that his hearing was excellent now. He was still learning braille. He could still think… and even if he couldn’t see, he would try very hard to be as brilliant as before.

He wanted so badly to tell her— Don’t be disgusted with me. Even though I’m blind, I’m no worse than anyone else.

However, when he heard her say that, Jiang Ye was still very sad. How could he tell his lover that his eyes really were incurable? The thought that she would be disappointed in him and be disgusted with him made his heart almost suffocate.

Tang Xue saw Jiang Ye’s eyes darken. She was immediately anxious. Did Jiang Ye not believe her?

She continued typing on the phone in a panic. Because she was in a hurry, she mistyped several words. In the end, she hurriedly handed the phone to Chen Chen.

“I’m telling you the truth. I’m a doctor. There are ways in Chinese medicine to cure your eye disease. Trust me.”

Chen Chen relayed Tang Xue’s words to Jiang Ye, who looked shocked.

He knew that Tang Xue’s family owned a very famous medical center. It had a long history and was famous for its medical skills. At its peak, the medical center had even treated many of the country’s leaders. A bottle of medicine could be sold for more than 100,000 yuan. It was even awarded the Hall of Fame Achievement Medal by the International Medical Association.

However, after Tang Xue’s father took over, the medical center did not seem to be that famous anymore. However, because of their former reputation, the Tang family still relied on this medical center to earn a lot of money. They were promoted from the middle class to the new money of Hai City.

When he first liked Tang Xue, his family looked down on the Tang family’s background and thought that they were nouveau riche who did not have good upbringing or manners. In the end, they relented because of the medical center.
