Liran Day's face gradually darkened, showing deep exhaustion. She had been practicing for days, which made her very tired. She closed her eyes slowly and fell into a deep sleep, her breathing becoming longer and slower.

As the night quietly passed, Liran Day woke up in the early morning when the first ray of sunlight shone into the bedroom. She opened her eyes and looked towards the bedside, where Iris lay quietly on the bed. Her wounds had already scabbed over, but they looked somewhat fierce.

"It seems Angela's medicine worked even better than expected," Liran Day muttered to herself. She stood up from the chair, stretched her muscles, and then walked over to untie Iris from her restraints before leaving the bedroom.

She encountered a maid cleaning at the doorway of the bedroom. The maid immediately bowed respectfully upon seeing Liran Day and stepped aside.

Liran Day nodded and walked straight out, disappearing from sight under the maids' curious gazes.

...

After a while, Bai Wei stealthily entered the bedroom, carrying two baskets of blood-filled buns. She looked at Iris on the bed and leaned closer, extending her slender fingers to gently touch Iris's nose tip. She softly said, "Mom, I've brought you food."

Iris's eyelashes trembled, and she suddenly opened her eyes, coldly saying, "Get away!"

"Uh..." Bai Wei was startled by Iris's sudden rebuke. She hesitated for a moment but soon realized what was happening and pouted in grievances, muttering, "I didn't do anything wrong. Mom, why did you yell at me?"

Iris looked at Bai Wei's pitiful expression and her face showed an apologetic look. She gently said, "I'm sorry, Bai Wei. I thought you were Liran Day, so I..."

Tears glistened in her red pupils, sparkling and translucent. She bit her lip, and tears fell down, making her look pitiful.

"Wuwuwuwu... I brought you breakfast, why are you still being mean to me? Did I do something wrong?" Bai Wei's little face was covered with tears, her eyes shining with teardrops, looking at Iris pitifully, her eyes full of grievances and sadness as if she had been greatly deceived and hurt.

Seeing the crystal-clear tears on Bai Wei's cheeks, Iris softened her tone, unable to resist her emotions. She softly said, "Come here, let Mom hug you."

Iris opened her arms and stared at the tearful Bai Wei, extending her arms, waiting for Bai Wei to hug her.

Bai Wei threw herself into Iris's embrace, crying and pressing her small face against Iris's chest.

Iris lowered her head and looked at Bai Wei in her arms, softly saying, "I'm sorry, Mom was wrong. I thought you were Liran Day, so I... Stop crying, okay?"

"Mhm mhm." Bai Wei said with her mouth, but while doing so, she took the opportunity to rub against Iris's embrace, as if seeking comfort.

"Mommy is fifteen years old, but my chest is still like that of an eight-year-old child. However, my legs are still slim. The scars just affect the appearance a bit, but the feel of my legs is still good." Bai Wei lay in Iris's embrace, her little head rubbing against Iris's chest as she muttered to herself.

Noticing something was off, Iris frowned and said, "Alright, you Bai Wei, trying to take advantage of the situation, huh? Let me teach you a lesson!"

As she said that, Iris raised her arm, ready to spank Bai Wei's little butt.

Bai Wei, seeing this, quickly dodged, saying, "Hehehe, you can't hit me, you can't hit me..."

After saying that, Bai Wei quickly ran away.

"This little rascal! She's getting better at acting!" Iris was itching with anger.

She tried to stand up and slowly walked towards the table.

"After a period of rehabilitation training, I should be able to fully recover and leave this place." Iris said to herself. She stuffed a bun into her mouth, chewing it with a graceful manner.

...

One shadow guard was lying on the bed, resting. Memories from the past rushed into his mind, causing his head to throb painfully. His forehead was covered in beads of sweat, his clothes already soaked with sweat.

His eyelids twitched slightly, and he slowly opened them, only to see a white expanse in front of him. His consciousness gradually became clear.

He rubbed his heavy temples, trying to sit up with support. However, his body was so sore that he couldn't sit up.

"Ouch! It hurts so much! My head is about to explode!" Shadowguard gritted his teeth and said, in pain. He felt like his whole head was about to burst, the pain was unbearable.

"Kerris, what's wrong with you?" Suddenly, a gentle male voice came from the bedside.

He was Kerris's colleague, named Brix, also a Shadowguard.

"My head hurts so much!" Kerris covered his head, painfully.

Brix walked to Kerris's side, helped him up, and asked, "Kerris, let me take a look at your head!"

Kerris nodded, allowing Brix to examine him.

"What's going on? Your head seems a little swollen, is it a nerve injury in your head?" Brix frowned, puzzled, "What's been going on with you lately, with intermittent headaches?"

"I don't know either." Kerris shook his head. He also wanted to know what was going on with him lately, why he always had headaches.

"Wait, I'll go get the healer for you." Brix said, turning to leave.

Kerris reached out and grabbed Brix's shoulder, "Don't bother the healer, let me rest for a while."

Hearing this, Brix turned back, looking at Kerris's pale and weak face, he couldn't help but worry, "Kerris, are you really okay? Should we call the medical team to check on you?"

"No need, just let me rest for a while. I know my own body." Kerris refused. He didn't want others to worry about him, especially Brix.

Upon hearing Kerris's firm words, Brix sighed and didn't insist anymore.

"Well then, Kerris, rest for a while. I won't disturb you. If you need anything, just call me." Brix instructed.

"I know, thank you for your concern. You can go busy yourself now, I'll be fine after resting for a while." Kerris smiled at Brix and then closed his eyes.

After Brix left the room, Kerris slowly opened his eyes, his eyes gleaming with coldness, filled with murderous intent.

Kerris clenched his fist, his teeth grinding.

Kerris looked at his right arm, three sharp tattoos grew on it, with very peculiar patterns, as if an open mouth devouring his flesh and blood.

"Hehe... It's time for revenge, my dear Majesty." Kerris whispered.

In the afternoon, the sunshine was bright and the sky was blue.

The white clouds were as white as snow, drifting like beautiful mist.

Bai Luan played with Bai Ying in the courtyard. Bai Ying felt helpless, as she was bullied by this little snake almost every day. With her mother injured and unable to protect her, and her grandmother unable to understand her, her fate was worrying. Bai Ying could only wait to grow up and strike back.

Bai Luan played with Bai Ying while thinking about what to eat tonight.

"Um, I want roasted suckling pig, roasted lamb leg, chicken wings, grilled eggplant..." Bai Luan mumbled to himself while playing with Bai Ying.

Hearing this, Bai Ying's previous "revenge plan" instantly disappeared. It blinked its big eyes and stared at Bai Luan, showing a pleasing expression.

"You don't get a share, you don't have teeth." Bai Luan pouted, with a disgusted expression.

"Ying Ying...Ying Ying..." Bai Ying opened its mouth in protest.

Bai Luan looked and said, "You actually showed a little bit of your teeth."

"Well, then let's change the taste at night, and have meat porridge!"

"Ying Ying..." Bai Ying nodded happily, "Ying Ying! Ying Ying!"

Bai Ying jumped in place, looking very happy.
