Chapter 832: Chapter 832: She Might as Well Take a Leap of Faith

Ye Jinyan eventually passed out from the pain, his clothes seemingly soaked as if submerged in water, his hair the same, completely drenched.

His face was deathly pale, devoid of color, and even in his unconscious state, he appeared to be in deep agony, as his body twitched intermittently.

"How painful must it be to end up like this?" Xi Wei looked at the unconscious Ye Jinyan on the bed, unable to help but feel heartache.

A man standing at seven feet was directly overwhelmed by pain into unconsciousness.

Bai Haoxue stood beside and bit her lips, silent.

She hadn’t experienced it personally, but she had witnessed it.

Yet those who saw it were all quiet at the moment, as if sharing a deep, empathetic connection.

Witnessing Ye Jinyan transition from pain to passing out, Bai Haoxue understood Ye Jinyan’s words even more.

He said he was selfish, that he was afraid of death, which is why he surrendered.

But how many people are truly unselfish?

How many can withstand such agony repeatedly and remain resilient?

"Father, you’re out of medicine, right?" Bai Haoxue looked at Bai Xiang seeking help.

Bai Xiang nodded, "Back when Lan Sizhan gave me the medicine, there were indeed a few pills left, but they were stored in our home.

Our home has been completely cleared out and renovated by Bai Xiongan and the others, plus it’s been over four years, surely they’re nowhere to be found."

Bai Haoxue looked towards the Nameless Elder, "Sir, do you have any idea? Even if you can’t cure him, temporarily alleviating his pain would be great."

The Nameless Elder shook his head, "I have no knowledge of Gu Worms, I don’t know how to deal with them at all.

However, this Gu Worm is very sinister, only someone who knows how to handle Gu can treat him."

It wasn’t until evening that Ye Jinyan woke up; he bid farewell to Bai Haoxue before leaving.

As Bai Haoxue watched Ye Jinyan’s figure retreat farther away, an indescribable feeling welled up inside her.

Back in her room, after hesitating for a long time, Bai Haoxue decided to share her truest thoughts with Ji Hanyu.

Bai Haoxue said, "Ji Hanyu, when Miss Chu returns, I must try to break the ’Black Gu Contract’ between Ye Jinyan and me.

Ji Hanyu, I know you’re looking out for me, you can’t bear to and don’t want me to take risks.

But after trying my best, regardless of success, it will at least give me peace of mind; I will have a clear conscience.

As things stand, I feel bad... It’s not just that person being Ye Jinyan that makes me uncomfortable.

If it were any other stranger, I would still feel uneasy.

Someone who didn’t originally love me fell for me because of the Black Gu, and I am the master of his pain or joy, I am the master of his life.

This feeling of holding someone else’s pain, joy, or even life is not satisfying at all, only feels like a heavy pressure.

Especially now, seeing Ye Jinyan in such pain because of me, I feel even more distress and burdened, the feeling of bearing a life weighs me down so I can hardly breathe."

Additionally, Ye Jinyan would visit her from time to time, simply because he missed her.

This left her feeling speechless, embarrassed, even uneasy.

Continuing like this, it will surely get worse... Ye Jinyan will worsen, Ji Hanyu will become more distressed, and she...

She might be driven mad.

Being caught in such a dilemma, she might as well take a gamble.
