In her heart, Xia Rulin felt excited too. The condition of her eyes was becoming more serious and she was no longer able to see things at a distance. She was only be able to perceive things clearly when she was close to them. If this kept up, she would definitely turn blind eventually. She had already made preparations to live out the remaining years of her life in darkness, but now there was a ray of hope.
Once Ling Chuxi had done all the necessary preparations, she indicated for everyone else to leave the space. Before she started the treatment though, Ling Chuxi asked Xia Rulin a question that had been weighing on her heart all along.
"May I ask you a question, Aunty Xia?" asked Ling Chuxi seriously.
"What is it?" replied Xia Rulin.
"How is it that you know the Xia family's benefactor and I look alike? You said she appeared when your grandmother was young…" said Ling Chuxi hesitantly. At the time, Xia Rulin shouldn't have been born yet.
