Chapter 315.1: The Person At the Bottom of the Lake
 
But, her eyes were still unable to make out the person’s looks clearly.
She lifted a heavy arm a little weakly, to shield the light shining into her eyes, which felt like a strong intense sunlight to her at that moment.
Her light action immediately caught that person’s attention and a familiar voice that was filled with delight sounded beside her ears.
Fei Er! You’ve finally woken up!

Qing Lan Fei jumped with a start, as she moved her hand away from her eyes to get a better look at the person who had moved to come right before her.
That all too familiar voice. Who else could it be but Mo Jing Yu?
Upon seeing there was no reaction from her, the man’s handsome countenance quickly came to be tinged with a sliver of worry as he opened his mouth again to ask gently:
Fei Er, are you alright? Are you feeling unwell anywhere?

It was only then that Qing Lan Fei seemed to come to her senses, her frigidly cold fingers warily seeking to go touch the man’s face. But her actions were very slow, her eyes carrying a bewildered glint as she puzzled over the situation.
Mo Jing Yu immediately grasped her hand, ignoring the icy cold temperature on her palm, and pressed it tightly against his own cheek, to let her properly feel his presence, that it was really him.
He assumed that she was just shocked, and his voice became tender and comforting as he said:
It’s alright now Fei Er. I’m here now and you won’t be in any more danger. I will be here by your side.

Qing Lan Fei’s eyes blinked. But no matter how hard she tried to see, she only saw a dazzling and blinding white. Besides being just able to make out the fuzzy silhouette of a person, she was unable to see anything else.
When her ears heard the man’s gentle voice again, her eyes could not help but began to mist over, her voice a little hoarse as she said softly:
Jing Yu, I am unable to see…..

Mo Jing Yu’s face became startled, like he might have misheard what the woman said.
What did you just say?

What does she mean by saying she is unable to see?

My eyes….. They cannot see anymore.

Qing Lan Fei closed her eyes and then opened them again. She did not know why but she always seemed so frail before the man. She had clearly not feared anything when the man was not with her earlier, even though she was unable to see anything.
But the moment he appeared, she immediately felt as if her entire world had collapsed.
And hearing her repeat those same words, it then came to dawn on Mo Jing Yu.
He slowly lifted a hand to wave it before her face. However, the woman’s beautiful and enchanting eyes continued to stare blankly ahead, not even blinking a single time, as they gazed rather woodenly at him.
Maybe, she wasn’t looking at him at all, but just facing blindly into a particular direction, and did not move.

How did that happen?

Mo Jing Yu grasped her shoulders in disbelief, the expression on his face grave, but his eyes were filled with thick roiling pain.
Did those people do this to you? I will never let them off for this!
