Chapter 8 - Picking Up Lu Ye

Two meters was far, but thank goodness the bottom of the groove was rife with lush water weeds and provided some cushioning for her fall. 

Gu Yan fell down and sprained her left ankle. There was also a bleeding scrape on her arm. 

Thankfully, she wasn't hurt badly. 

The wicker basket fell not far away, and the mushrooms that she had picked all rolled on the ground. 

Gu Yan decided to get them back once the pain from her ankle alleviated. 

She lied down on the weeds facing up. Suddenly, burping sounds came from the depths of Gu Yan's mind. 

She looked around in confusion. A second later, the jade pendant at her chest heated up, so she took it out through her collar. 

Gu Yan was surprised by what she found. The image of a little seedling with two tiny leaves appeared on the plain jade pendant that had no images or engravings on it!

She rubbed her eyes. She was a hundred percent certain that there was nothing on the jade pendant before. 

All of a sudden, a green light dashed out from the inside of the jade pendant. The green light carefully flew to her arm. 

After a warm and tingling sensation, the scrape that was the length of her finger disappeared!

Gu Yan was flabbergasted. 

Can it be that the green light from the jade pendant had something to do with how quickly my leg healed?

As if it was trying to verify Gu Yan's thoughts, the jade pendant twinkled again, and the green light flew out and came to Gu Yan's sprained left ankle. It spun around the ankle twice and went back inside the jade pendant. 

Gu Yan's left foot was also healed!

The jade pendant was still plain and simple as ever. But when she looked closely, the little seedling on the jade pendant was extra verdant, and the two leaves looked very energetic. 

This magical green light had healing powers!

Gu Yan's eyes sparkled, and she almost jumped up in excitement! 

This was too freaking incredible!

Maybe this green light would listen to her commands!?

Gu Yan quickly tested this idea at the thought. 

She was so happy that the green light came out of the jade under the summon of her thoughts.

The green light carefully flew around, from the prior injury on Gu Yan's leg to her sprained ankle and to the scrape on her arm.

As if it did not find a target during its route, the green light went back into the jade pendant voluntarily. 

Once again, it became the little seedling with two leaves.

Gu Yan finally understood. The green light was transformed from the little seedling inside the jade pendant!

She could not stop herself from being hyper-excited as her heart beat wildly!

This jade pendant was a treasure!

A gust of mountain wind blew by and made the tree leaves rattle. 

Seeing that the sun was already high in the sky, Gu Yan slowly pacified her excitement and decided to pick up those mushrooms again before looking for Lu Ye's traces. 

However, she already spent so long looking and still hadn't seen him yet. 

Could it be that this event got altered from her rebirth and became different from what it was in her previous life?

But Gu Yan suddenly stopped while she picked up the mushrooms. 

She caught a whiff of the strong smell of blood. 

Could it be Lu Ye!?

Gu Yan looked around and found a huge patch of water weeds that were pressed down. It vaguely looked like a person was lying on the water weeds.

Gu Yan did not think much and ran over. 

She ran to the location and saw a man wearing a camouflage uniform covered in blood!

The man lied there motionlessly. His body rose and fell faintly in rhythm, indicating that he was still breathing, but he was in a coma. 

Gu Ye's hands trembled as she gently flipped over the man's body.

Once she saw the man's handsome face, her expression froze as tears instantly gushed into her eyes

It was Lu Ye! It really was Lu Ye!

Gu Ye remembered that Lu Ye and Lin Haoran shared the moniker 'New Star in the Army'. He and Lin Haoran were the Ace of the Northern Military Zone and the Ace of the Southern Military Zone respectively. Together, they were called the Two Heroes of the Military. Both of them were very accomplished at a young age and were very outstanding, and they were capable of anything and everything. Not long ago, they fought some special battles together and went on mysterious missions. 

If it wasn't because of that medical accident, Lu Ye would have a boundless bright future. The army commander position that Lin Haoran got should have belonged to Lu Ye!

All because of that selfish Lin Haoran and that cruel Bai Weiyang!

Gu Yan closed her eyes and saw the trust in Lu Ye's eyes as he looked at her right before the operation!

But, he closed his eyes forever later on… 

Gu Yan felt like her heart was slashed by knives, and her tears fell down like rain.
