' You should let go of rotten things'

Wu Jin returned to Wu Genji's ward, the words of the old woman still ringing in his head, of course, he knew that the old woman was talking about the peach that was stuck in the metal strips but … as he came to a stop in front of the door of the ward that was left open, he felt his heart twist and turn as he looked at Wu Genji who was lying on the hospital bed. She looked pale and sickly like always but he could see the differences in her physique at once, unlike his parents whose eyes were covered with the rose-tinted glasses of parent love, he was much clearer in his head.

He could see that Wu Genji's body was no longer as frail as it was before, he could see that her thin figure has gained some flesh and she looked healthier than before, his fingers clenched as he stared at his parents who were smiling ears to ears after listening to the doctor report.

" The patient is showing miraculous recovery, as long as she continues with the treatment she is undergoing, she will be able to walk on her own feet soon," said the doctor as he read Wu Genji's vitals.

Listening to the report from the doctor, Mother Wu's eyes crinkled until they were completely hidden by her chubby cheeks even Father Wu looked rather happy, he looked at the doctor and asked in an excited voice, " Doctor are you sure? Genji is not only okay but she is recovering as well?"

The doctor nodded his head, he looked down at the woman who was lying on the bed and his brows scrunched up slightly. He was sure that when this girl's family brought her to the hospital last time for a check-up, she was so sick that she was on the verge of dying but how in the world, did she make a full recovery so soon?

The doctor was confused but there was nothing else he could say about this case, it was the Wu family's matter even if they were illegally buying organs and organising surgeries for their daughter, it was their problem not his, there was no need for him to pay extra attention to this case.

" I will be going now," said the doctor as he bowed slightly to the Wu couple who were lost in their own world before taking his leave.

The doctor nodded at Wu Jin as he walked past him as he was leaving the room, Wu Jin nodded blankly as his gaze remained locked on Wu Genji.

" Didn't I say that Genji is a miraculous baby?" Mother Wu exclaimed with a soft clap of her hands as she placed the tips of her fingers against her mouth and happily stared at Wu Genji. " She was blessed with the blessings of the Gods, see… even though the doctors said that she was going to die at the age of twelve, she survived for so long and is now on the road of recovery, humph… I told you that the doctors were mistaken when they told us that our daughter was fated to die young."

Father Wu was also especially happy as he nodded and agreed with Mother Wu, his arms curled around his wife as he gazed at his daughter, his eyes brimming with love. " You are right, Genji was blessed by the Gods…even the King of Yama could not bear to take her away from us."

The Wu couple were happier than ever, on the other hand, Wu Jin who was standing outside the room could hear the cries of the families who lost their children, many were not even in their teens.

His heart felt heavier than ever as Song Yan's words echoed in his ears like a haunting whisper, 'your sister died the day she established a relationship with that demon, now she is nothing but a shell.'

A shell, that was all that was left of his sister.

He was lost in his thoughts when Mother Wu's gaze fell on him and her face lit up with a smile as she looked at him. " Ah Jin you are here?" She walked to his side and stretched her hands in front before grabbing hold of his hands as she said with tears brimming in her eyes. " Your sister is recovering, did you hear that? She is going to make a full recovery soon." Mother Wu sniffed as she wiped her tears and smiled at him. " I will see who will call her a jinx and sickly princess after that, I bet everyone who looked down on Genji will surely regret it."

Wu Jin smiled awkwardly as he nodded and said, " That's right mum," then he shook his mother's hands off and then smiled at his parents with a hesitation-filled expression and said, " I will go and look at the situation, there is a lot of things that I need to take care of——"

" Aiya!" He was still speaking when he heard his mother exclaim suddenly as she smacked her hand on her forehead and clicked her tongue. "It's a good thing that you reminded me or else I would have forgotten all about it."

Wu Jin frowned thinking that his mother wanted to say something serious to him but then he heard her scold the murderer who was behind all these killings as she emphasised strongly that he caught hold of the mass murderer and punish him with the death penalty.

" I understand mom, I will see what I can do," said Wu Jin as he turned around and left the room. If his mother knew that all these killings were done by her own daughter, then would she insist on the death penalty? Wu Jin didn't know and he didn't want to know either.

With his trembling fingers, he fished out a small glass pearl from his pocket, he has been bringing it with him ever since Song Yan gave it to him and he has been thinking of whether to use it or not but now that the situation was like this, he had no other choice but to make a choice.
