Traveling to ancient times, with space

Chapter 242 The Little Blind Man

"Is it good?" Su Yue looked curiously at Gu Ping, who was sitting to the side eating cautiously, as if someone was trying to poison him.

Gu Ping narrowed his eyes slightly, eating each bite with extreme care.

Strangely enough, ever since Gu Ping's eyes developed problems, his hearing and sense of smell have become unusually sharp.

Just moments ago, when he was still in the pavilion in the distance, he was already drawn in by the enticing aroma, his mouth watering.

Now that I've actually tasted it, I find it incredibly delicious.

"Mmm, it's delicious." Gu Ping nodded gently, but then seemed to remember something, though he didn't ask.

Seeing him eating so cautiously, Su Yue hesitated before asking, "But... do you find it a little hard to get your hands on?"

At that moment, Dali was enjoying the grilled fish in his hand.

Although the fish did not come from Su Yue's space, the various seasonings used for grilling did come from there.

These unique spices give the grilled fish a distinctive flavor.

Upon hearing Su Yue's question, Gu Ping was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and replied, "No, I think it's delicious!" As he spoke, he took a big bite of the fish.

At this moment, Gu Ping suddenly pointed to what he was chewing and asked in confusion, "What is this thing that makes my mouth feel a little numb? I've never tasted this before. It feels a bit spicy when it first goes in, but after chewing it a few more times, it gets more and more fragrant."

"This spicy stuff is an ingredient called chili peppers. If you like it, I'll bring you some later, but you can't tell on me." Su Yue looked at Gu Ping, who was sitting steadily on the rock.

Gu Ping thought to himself, judging from that voice, it must be his third brother who had just returned home.

"Don't worry, I definitely won't report you," Gu Ping replied softly with a slight smile.

For some reason, he felt no disgust towards the person in front of him; on the contrary, he found the other person quite cute and interesting.

Since losing his sight, everyone, from his biological father to the servants in the mansion, has become opportunistic, adept at reading people's faces and changing their tune with the wind.

It had been a long time since he had sat side by side with someone and shared a meal like this, and this long-lost feeling of warmth truly made him happy.

Su Yue also thought the little blind boy in front of her was incredibly well-behaved, just like a gentle little lamb!

Especially that little tuft of hair on the top of his head, it's so irresistible that you just want to reach out and ruffle it.

Without hesitation, Su Yue quickly wiped her hands clean on her clothes.

Then, with light steps, she arrived in front of Gu Ping in just two or three steps, and without hesitation, reached out her small hand to the tuft of hair on his head.

The moment her fingertips touched her, an indescribable soft sensation spread throughout her body, causing a small surge of joy to well up in Su Yue's heart.

Oh my, it's just as soft and fluffy as I expected! So, she couldn't help but rub it a few more times.

However, just as Su Yue was having a great time, she suddenly noticed that Gu Ping's originally fair ears had turned slightly red.

Realizing her actions were inappropriate, she quickly withdrew her hand with an embarrassed laugh and made up an excuse: "Hehehe... um, you seem to have a bug on your head, I just wanted to help you get it off."

At this moment, Gu Ping's face was flushed red. Not only were his ears as red as ripe apples, but even his slender neck was a crimson color.

He spoke somewhat awkwardly, "Thank you... thank you." His voice was so low it was barely audible.

Seeing this, Su Yue sat down next to Gu Ping without any hesitation, her beautiful eyes fixed on his face, as if she wanted to take in every subtle expression on his face.

Then, she reached out and gently waved her hand in front of Gu Ping's dull, lifeless eyes.

"Can you see it?" Su Yue asked softly, her voice full of curiosity.

Gu Ping shook his head slightly. His mood, which had just calmed down a little, instantly plummeted again as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

He replied in a low voice, "I can only see a blurry shadow." His words betrayed his disappointment and frustration.

Seeing this, Su Yue couldn't help but feel pity and asked, "How exactly did you get injured?"

She wanted to know more details to see if there was any possibility of a cure; she quite liked the little blind boy.

Gu Ping had never been willing to mention this matter to others, but for some reason, he felt a surge of emotion today as he faced this unfamiliar yet kind younger brother.

He slowly revealed the truth as if possessed: "I don't know what kind of poison it is. The doctor only said that the poisoning is so severe that it is difficult to cure."

Fortunately, apart from blurred vision, my life was not in danger. After saying this, he sighed deeply, as if the long-suppressed bitterness in his heart had finally been released.

Upon hearing this, Su Yue quickly said, "I have some medical knowledge. Can I take a look for you? Maybe I can find a cure."

In fact, even Su Yue herself was not sure, but seeing Gu Ping's adorable appearance, she felt quite compatible with him and had the idea of ​​giving it a try.

Upon hearing this, Gu Ping, who had already given up all hope, was taken aback for a moment, then nodded and replied, "Yes, that's fine."

Since so many doctors are helpless anyway, what harm is there in having one more person take a look?

Su Yue had just gently placed her hand on Gu Ping's eyes, preparing to use her spiritual energy to examine them.

Suddenly, a noisy and urgent sound came over, startling her so much that she quickly withdrew her spiritual energy.

She was careless. If the spiritual energy had entered just now, Gu Ping might have really gone blind.

Gu Yuan whispered, "Quick, quick, quick, someone's coming! Put out the fire! Throw all the fish bones into the flower bushes!"

He had been keeping his eyes on the outside, and with just a casual glance, he immediately noticed a group of people walking in his direction.

The leader of this group was none other than the ruthless and vicious woman, Jiang Ying.

She walked at the front with her head held high and a smug smile on her face, as if the whole world was under her control.

Beside her followed two elegantly dressed, jewel-encrusted ladies who swayed their slender waists and occasionally let out clear, melodious laughter like silver bells.

Behind Jiang Ying and the others followed a dozen or so servants, who chatted and laughed as they hurried toward the pavilion.

They held exquisite fans or held beautiful flowers, creating a lively scene.
