It hurts!

It was very painful!

It was so painful!

Ji Zhao felt pain all over her body. It was as if she was being burned by a raging fire. Every inch of her skin was on fire.

She subconsciously opened her mouth to call for help, but she felt a puff of smoke enter her throat through her slightly open mouth. It burned her throat, making it impossible for her to call for help.

The moment she opened her eyes with all her might, raging flames burned in front of her. The fire soared into the sky and chilled the entire night sky!

Ji Zhao was at a loss and did not know what to do.

‘Ah Tao! Don’t come over!”

Suddenly, she heard Zhao Lanhua’s hoarse cries. Ji Zhao’s eyes widened in fear Zhao Lanhua, who was standing in the fire, was still holding a bundle in her arms. The surging flames quickly engulfed her!

‘Mother!”

Ji Zhao wanted to rush forward anxiously, but the beam above the house suddenly fell!

Crackle—

The flames in front of her became even more intense.

Ji Zhao weakly knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face.

The fire burned for the entire night and was only extinguished at the moment of dawn.

The Shen family’s courtyard had turned into ruins.

“What a sin! Who did Dashan’s family offend? Why did they suddenly start a

‘That’s right. I heard that the entire family was burned to death…

‘The county office said that it was an accident..

‘Could it be that the Shen family did something outrageous?

‘No way? Dashen and Lanhua aren’t that kind of people!”

‘Do you think it was Ji Ah Tao who did it?”

‘How is this possible?” “1 heard that Ji Ah Tao was the only one who survived this fire…”

‘IIS it that strange?

‘You think it’s weird, too, don’t you?

Ji Zhao could hear the discussions of many people, but there was no one in front of her!

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the atmosphere in the Shen family’s courtyard was still terrible.

Shen Yao guarded the unconscious Ji Zhao. His usually gentle eyes were filled with worry. He reached out to touch her forehead, but it was still burning hot.

‘We can’t let Ah Tao continue burning like this.” Zhao Lanhua wiped the sweat off Ji Zhao’s face with a handkerchief as she instructed, “Third Brother, go outside and take a look. See if your father and the others are back.”

When Shen Yao returned home last night, he saw Ji Zhao lying unconscious on the ground.

Shen Dashan immediately got Eldest Brother Shen to prepare the carriage and rushed to the county city to get a doctor.

However, it was the new year and the county was probably heavily guarded. They would not be able to get a doctor back for a while.

“1 didn’t hear the sound of hooves.” Shen Yao shook his head gently. ‘Mother, go back to your room and rest first. I’ll take care of Ah Tao.”

‘That won’t do.” Zhao Lanhua quickly shook her head and refused. “I have to guard Ah Tao well. But Third Brother, don’t worry too much. Ah Tao has always been very lucky. She will definitely be fine. Perhaps she’s just having a nightmare?”

Why would she suddenly have a high fever from a nightmare?

Shen Yao pursed his lips bitterly. He held Ji Zhao’s right hand tightly, his gentle eyes filled with concern. “Ah Tao, don’t scare me, okay?”

At the end of the morning, Ji Zhao, who had been unconscious for the entire night, finally woke up.

Cough cough—

She coughed a few times sadly. The moment she forced herself to open her eyes, Shen Yao’s extremely haggard face appeared in front of her.

‘Shen Yao, you… cough, cough, cough..

‘Ah Tao, you’re awake?” The moment he saw her wake up, Shen Yao’s dull eyes lit up again. He hurriedly reached for her forehead. The temperature on the back of his hand was finally no longer hot.

Shen Yao quickly helped her sit up against the head of the bed. He turned around to pour some water. After blowing on it to cool it down, he handed it to her.

Ji Zhao took the cup and took a sip. Then, she smiled at him obediently, but tears could not help but roll down her cheeks.

‘Why are you crying? What’s wrong?” Seeing her cry, Shen Yao comforted her anxiously and wiped the tears on her face clumsily.

‘Shen Yao… Boohoo… It hurts…” Ji Zhao buried her head in his arms and cried uncontrollably!

She was in so much pain!

That dream must be another omen!

Everyone in the Shen family, including Shen Yao, had lost their lives in that fire!

The feeling of every inch of her skin being wrapped in fire was indescribably painful!

Ji Zhao cried for a long time until her tears dried up.

‘Did you have another nightmare?” Shen Yao helped her wash her face. Then, he rubbed her soft hair and comforted her gently. “Ah Tao, don’t be afraid. I’ll be by your side.”

‘Mm!”

Ji Zhao nodded vigorously and wrapped her arms around his waist. She closed her eyes and listened to Shen Yao’s steady and strong heartbeat. The sadness that lingered in her heart gradually dissipated.

‘Ah Tao, you’re awake?” Zhao Lanhua brought the cooked porridge into the house. ‘Are you hungry? Mother made you some porridge. Do you want some?”

‘Thank you, Mother.” Ji Zhao nodded obediently. After rinsing her mouth, she finished the bowl of porridge in one gulp.

A warm current flowed down her throat and into her heart.

At this moment, she was completely awake.

The fire in her dream had not arrived yet.

“What’s wrong?” Looking at her absent-minded expression, Shen Yao frowned slightly and asked with concern.

‘Shen Yao, I…”

‘Has Ah Tao woken up? We’ve invited the doctor over!” Brother Shen hurriedly welcomed the doctor into the inner room and asked anxiously.

Half an hour later, the doctor took Ji Zhao’s pulse.

‘Her pulse has stabilized, and her fever has subsided.” The doctor thought for a moment and reminded her, “You have to eat a lighter diet these few days. Later, I’ll prescribe a prescription to calm your nerves. You’ll be fine after drinking it for two days.”

‘Thank you, doctor!”

After confirming that Ji Zhao was fine, Shen Yao was completely relieved. “Father, Mother, Big Brother, go back to your rooms and rest first. I’ll take good care of Ah Tao.” Shen Yao turned to look at the others who were relieved and said softly.

When only the two of them were left in the room, Shen Yao walked up to the dazed Ji Zhao and caressed her cheek with heartache. He asked gently, “Ah Tao, was that nightmare very scary?

‘Mm.” Ji Zhao lowered her eyes and replied gloomily.

Shen Yao took the opportunity to sit beside her and reached out to pull her into his arms. “Ah Tao, don’t be afraid. Sometimes, some things seem to be a dead end, but when you think about it carefully, this might be another chance, right?”

It was a dead end, a chance of survival.

Ji Zhao came back to her senses when he heard those words.

‘That’s right!” She grabbed Shen Yao’s hand excitedly and suddenly looked up. Her eyes were as bright as the stars in the night sky.. ‘Perhaps this is a chance?”
