Chapter 332: Yun Mu Regains Her Sight
by 叶微摇Chapter 332: Yun Mu Regains Her Sight
Today, Aju got off work unusually early and couldn't wait to drive back home as soon as it hit five.
He was worried that the little blind girl might suddenly change her mind and leave.
When he opened the door and saw the graceful figure in the garden, he finally felt a bit relieved.
The young girl was wearing a rose-red sweater with a white lace skirt that reached her ankles, revealing her delicate and slender ankles. She wore fluffy slippers and looked charming.
At that moment, she was lying on the grass playing with Roundy. The cat seemed to like her very much and kept circling around her, pouncing on her. Since she couldn't see the cat clearly, she ended up being knocked down onto the grass.
Her long, dark curly hair spread out on the grass as she frowned slightly and scolded, "Roundy, if you keep this up, I'll hit you! Stop it, hahaha..."
On the stone table nearby, Xuanyuan Ming sat there, smiling warmly as he watched the playful scene between the girl and the cat. He said, "This cat had no appetite and was always depressed when it was with me. Today, it drank several bowls of milk after seeing you. Since you're going to live in Ruoshui Garden from now on, let's leave the cat here."
Yun Mu sat up, brushing her messy hair behind her ear, and said, "Sure."
Aju stood at the door, watching the harmonious scene in the garden bathed in the sunset, listening to the girl's melodious laughter...
He felt a certain empty place in his heart slowly filling up, becoming incredibly soft.
For the first time in over five months, he felt his heart beating normally again.
Was it all because of this little blind girl?
At that moment, Xuanyuan Ming turned his head and saw Aju standing outside the door, his eyes fixed on Yun Mu on the grass.
He sighed lightly and waved at Aju, "Aju, you're back. Come in quickly."
Aju walked over.
Yun Mu also turned her head, her unfocused beautiful eyes looking in his direction.
Aju looked at her.
Their eyes met.
Even though he knew she couldn't see him, Aju still felt his heart skip a beat.
Yun Mu turned away first, holding Roundy and petting it.
Aju also looked away, turning to Xuanyuan Ming coldly, "Why are you here?"
Xuanyuan Ming coughed awkwardly and said, "You haven't visited me for a few days. I happened to feel better today, so I came over myself. Luckily I did; from now on, let A Mu take care of the cat."
Aju wasn't particularly concerned about the cat, but seeing how close Roundy was to Yun Mu, he became even more puzzled.
After all, the cat was usually hard to handle and would scratch people easily. When Liu Ling held it before, she was scratched several times, which was why he gave it to the Xuanyuan family to take care of.
Aju's deep gaze fell on Yun Mu again, but she was unaware of it.
Xuanyuan Ming subtly observed his son. Yun Mu had already told him about Aju's condition.
Perhaps due to the side effects of the medication, Aju had forgotten everything about her, remembering only that he once had a substitute wife.
So she wanted to stay by his side, observe any other symptoms, and cure his amnesia.
Xuanyuan Ming naturally supported her.
In his eyes, only a woman like Yun Mu was worthy of his son.
Moreover, he wasn't blind; he had seen the difference in how his son treated Yun Mu compared to Liu Ling. It was clear who the true love was.
He didn't want his son to make the same mistake he did and lose his love, leading to a life of pain.
Xuanyuan Ming stood up and said earnestly to Aju, "A Mu is skilled in medicine. With her by your side, I'm at ease. You must treat her well. I'm leaving now."
Aju's thin lips pressed together, "I understand."
...
After Xuanyuan Ming left, Aju stood in front of Yun Mu with one hand in his pocket, looking down at her coldly, and said, "You're quite capable, managing to convince someone like Xuanyuan Ming to speak on your behalf. Even a cat is so attached to you! Little blind girl, I advise you to behave and do your job as a maid properly. Don't dream of things that don't belong to you!"
"What am I dreaming of? The position of Mrs. Yi?" Yun Mu lifted her face, her beautiful eyes filled with anger, "I wouldn't even consider being Mrs. Ji, let alone yours. Rest assured, I have no interest in you whatsoever!"
Aju, who had intended to provoke her, was unexpectedly infuriated by her words.
"What do you mean? Are you saying I'm not even as good as Ji Min, that sissy?"
"What sissy? Just because someone looks more refined than you doesn't make them a sissy! Aju, you're too petty!" Yun Mu said coldly, raising her eyebrows.
Aju gritted his teeth, "How can you, a blind girl, know who looks good?"
"Appearance reflects character. Ji Min is better than you in every way, so naturally, he looks better than you!"
"You!" Aju's face turned livid, "You're quite sharp-tongued! Have you forgotten whose territory you're on?"
Yun Mu wasn't afraid of him at all. She put Roundy down, stood up, and walked to him by instinct, lifting her face fearlessly and said, "This is your house, so what? Want to fight? Who's afraid of whom?"
Aju's body stiffened abruptly.
The girl was so close to him, almost touching his face, her breath sweet and her eyes captivating.
Aju swallowed, took a deep breath to suppress his anger, and said hoarsely, "Get away from me!"
Yun Mu refused, "Ha, I won't!"
Aju stared at the girl, suddenly feeling an urge to crush her spirit, to see her lose her composure in front of him.
He endured and endured, but in the end, he couldn't help it, his gaze fixating on her lips, faintly visible beneath the sheer veil.
"Little blind girl, you asked for this."
Yun Mu was furious. "I have a name. If you call me little... mmm..."
In the next instant, Yun Mu's lips were suddenly sealed, covered by a warm and soft pair of lips.
Yun Mu's mind went blank as if a firework had exploded within her.
Her long, feathery eyelashes fluttered rapidly, and then she saw the man's narrow eyes up close, clear enough to see his eyelashes.
She...
Could she see now?
Yun Mu was completely stunned.
Yi Jue, however, instantly realized what he had done and quickly pulled away. Seeing the shocked little blind girl before him, he finally smiled in satisfaction.
"Little blind girl, if you get this close and tempt me again, I'll kiss you again! Got it?" His voice was low and magnetic, exceptionally pleasant to hear.
Yun Mu's pupils gradually widened, wider and wider, staring at the familiar face and features before her. For a moment, she couldn't utter a single word, nor did she hear clearly what he had just said.
Yi Jue took her silence as being stunned by him, smiled contentedly, and then turned to enter the door.
Yun Mu watched his retreating back, feeling like a million horses were galloping through her heart.
If she had known that a kiss could restore her sight, she would have let him kiss her long ago, and wouldn't have suffered so much!
