The elegant old lady, holding her chest and speaking in a hoarse voice, said, "Are you holding a grudge because of how I used to make things difficult for you? I apologize to you. You can make any demand."
"It's not that."
Qiao Xi felt as if there was a heavy stone pressing down on her heart and said resolutely, "I can't disobey my teacher's orders, I cannot agree to your request."
Hearing this, Liu Qiushuang had a moment of recognition that seemed to say "as I suspected."
Liu Qiushuang immediately deflated, her complexion turning ashen as she said, "I knew it, I was asking for too much. It was our Liu Family that broke the rules first, it's not your fault."
Back then, Liu Zongyun was one of Lu Bannong's patients, someone Cheng Han would not have touched.
She just couldn't bear to give up that sliver of hope, though she also knew it was very unlikely her youngest son would wake up.
Qiao Xi frowned, once again it was about the rules.
