Cheng Ying never woke up, and all Tang Ziyu’s attention was focused on him. Every night she got up in the middle of the night to feel his forehead to see if he had a fever. During the day, she worried about Mu Xiangtian and Yue Qing again. Somehow, she even hoped that Murong Hong would escape. Life was too precious, and she didn’t want them to kill anyone either.

Bai Yuting had been by her side the whole time, helping her regain her strength. She decided to take care of Cheng Ying while also taking care of her godfather’s business. This way, she was kept busy all day long and had no time to think about other things.

It was still rare for a woman to be seen in public doing things that only a man could do in this small town, but since she had previously shown what she was capable of and was also the boss’s goddaughter, everyone felt that it was normal for the second young lady to be in charge.

Qin’s mother loved Tang Ziyu very much because she had saved the entire Qin family and was now helping to take care of the business. So she had someone send her delicious food every day and bought her a large stack of clothes. Tang Ziyu looked at her and thought of her own mother, and her heart couldn’t help but feel a little sad. She had promised Situ not to leave, so she couldn’t go back, and now with Cheng Ying in this condition, she couldn’t leave even more.

She sent a die to Xiaoyun Villa in the hope that Mu would know where she was, but she was afraid that someone else might find out, so she sent the die. A few days later, when she was at the jade shop, someone delivered a letter saying that Cheng Ying had woken up.

She hurried back to see him and found that he had indeed improved a lot and could already walk around. She was overjoyed: ‘Brother Cheng, it’s so good that you’ve woken up.’ Tang Ziyu realised that she had actually said something stupid, but when one is excited, one really doesn’t know what to say.

‘You, you, are you Tang Zihan?’ “Yes, no. I am Tang Ziyu. I disguised myself as a man and went to Xiaoyun Villa, and now I am back in disguise. To be honest, we really haven’t met before. I am Tang Ziyu, I am not a man, I am a woman.” Tang Ziyu bowed, then laughed and stood up, looking at him with sparkling eyes.

Cheng Ying felt a little dizzy. If she was a woman, then her brother was not a homosexual; but if she had one, was she androgynous? She could tell that he was confused, and Tang Ziyu felt a little embarrassed. ‘I deliberately put a jade stick on my body, so others think I am a man. The Adam’s apple is also fake.’

‘I see. Good day, Miss Tang.‘ “You’re welcome, Brother Cheng. Thank you for saving me last time.” “You’re welcome. You’ve already healed my wounds, so I should thank you too.”

’Brother Mu and the others don’t know anything yet, but I’ve already sent someone to deliver the message. This is my adoptive father’s house, so you can rest assured and stay here. If anything happens, just ask someone to find Miss Er, that’s me. I’ll be at the jade shop during the day, so if you have time, you can come and visit. If you like anything, I can give it to you.’
