Inside a dim courtyard filled with thick steam coming from a pool, Su Yue was seen resting her milky smooth back on the edge of the pool with her eyes closed.
This time, her mask was taken off, but Ah Yue Lin was by her side, scrubbing her arm.
Silence reigned in the bathhouse for a while before Ah Yue Lin finally opened her mouth.
"Master, will you take me along to the poison valley?"
Su Yue slowly shook her head.
Ah Yue Lin sighed and cupped water with her palm to wash off the foam on Su Yue's arm.
"I knew you wouldn't. I'm a failure, I can't do anything properly."
Su Yue sighed and remained silent.
"If only, if only…" Su Yue slowly lifted her hand with her eyes closed, telling her to stop talking.
Ah Yue Lin nodded and continued bathing her master in silence.
