When the Swallow Came, Ertai Saw the Light

Everyone in the capital knew that Forte was dead. Blind in both eyes and with all his muscles and veins damaged, the once victorious God of War was trapped in a lightless house waiting for death. He drove away seventeen maids and did not allow anyone to come near. Little Yanzi doesn't care. She just wanted to save enough money to pay the rent in Gouwei Hutong and raise the old orange cat until the end of its life. He told her to get lost, and she squatted at the door sweeping the yard. He smashed the medicine bowl, and she knelt down to clean it up. He said he couldn't cure it, so she stayed by the bed with a bowl every day and fed him one bite at a time. Until he asked her: "Why don't you leave?" She smiled and said, "My mother said that the King of Hell will not accept people who want to die on their own. Before you die, I have to make medicine for you." He was silent for a long time, and in that boundless darkness, he heard his own heartbeat echoing again. Later, he regained his sight, pushed aside everyone, walked up to her, and raised his hand to wipe the ashes from her face. "Why have you lost so much weight?" Xiao Yanzi blinked: "General, can you see me now?" He looked at her with a serious look he had never seen before: "Yes. I saw it. It's very beautiful."
