It was not until Tang Shuang and Jiang Ye entered the house that Auntie Wang stroked her chest. Why was this wretched girl’s gaze so scary just now?!

Tang Shuang helped Jiang Ye to the bed. She hesitated for a moment before unbuttoning Jiang Ye’s clothes.

Jiang Ye took her hand. “I’m fine, really.”

Tang Shuang did not let go. After more than ten seconds, Jiang Ye could only give in and let Tang Shuang take off his shirt.

There were three bruises on the man’s broad and muscular back due to the club. It looked hideous and terrifying. Tang Shuang could almost imagine how painful it had been when the club landed on him.

If those reporters had arrived any later, the consequences would have been unthinkable.

Looking at the scars on the man’s back, Tang Shuang’s breathing trembled and she almost cried again.

In the end, Tang Shuang took out a box of ointment from the box and slowly applied it on Jiang Ye. Jiang Ye did not cry out in pain at all during the process.

After applying the medicine, Tang Shuang covered Jiang Ye with a blanket, then got up and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

When Auntie Wang saw her coming down the stairs, she spat out the melon seed shells in her mouth onto the ground. At this moment, she was sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed on the coffee table. She looked relaxed and comfortable, as if she was the mistress of this place.

“If you want to cook, hurry up. When Butler Li comes over later, you won’t even be able to have dinner! You ran out today and caused Butler Li to deduct half a month of my salary! This is too much… After you finish cooking, wash the dishes and mop the floor. Did you hear what I said? Are you deaf?”

Tang Shuang ignored Auntie Wang’s words and silently took out the vegetables from the fridge and started cooking.

Aunt Wang was originally bribed by Jiang Wei, but after Tang Xue gave her more money, she became Tang Xue’s person.

Auntie Wang also knew that Tang Shuang was preparing to treat Jiang Ye’s eyes. She knew very well that although Jiang Wei had almost controlled most of the Jiang family’s assets, if Jiang Ye’s eyes recovered, it was hard to say who would be the real winner in the end.

She didn’t dare to offend Jiang Ye too much.

However, she did not care about an imposter like Tang Shuang at all. Aunt Wang guessed that after Jiang Ye’s eyes were cured, Tang Shuang would probably have to get lost.

Tang Shuang cooked two dishes and brought them to the room.

Jiang Ye smelled the food and was a little puzzled. “Why has the food become better recently? Is there a new chef?”

As Jiang Ye spoke, he picked up a small vegetable.

Although it was a very ordinary vegetable, it tasted very good. Jiang Ye’s appetite was whetted and he finished the entire bowl of rice.

Seeing that Jiang Ye had a good appetite, Tang Shuang smiled and thought to herself, ‘If only time could stop at this moment forever.’

Outside the window, an orange sunset stained a large section of the sky. The whole world seemed to have been dyed with a warm orange filter.

Tang Shuang looked at the gorgeous sunset. At this moment, she felt that compared to being with Jiang Ye, what she wanted more was for Jiang Ye to see the light again. She hoped that the person she loved could see such a beautiful sunset.

The next day, Tang Xue came over again. She saw that Tang Shuang was brewing medicine and could not help but ask her anxiously, “How long will it take to cure Jiang Ye’s eyes?”

Tang Shuang did not answer. Tang Xue immediately pinched her arm angrily. “I’m asking you a question!”

Tang Shuang frowned, took out her phone, and typed coldly: ‘Not sure.’

Tang Shuang was not lying. The progress of the treatment depended on Jiang Ye’s physical condition. She was not God, so how could she give an accurate number?

However, Tang Xue did not believe her. She glared at Tang Shuang fiercely and sneered. “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. You’re trying to stall for time so that you can spend more time with Jiang Ye, right? Let me tell you, stop dreaming. Jiang Ye only has me in his heart. Do you know that your tricks will only make you look like a pitiful worm? As expected of Gu Rou’s daughter. You’re as stupid and as despicable as her!”

Tang Shuang’s eyes burned with anger when she heard Tang Xue insulting her dead mother. She stared at Tang Xue coldly. Tang Xue felt a little afraid under her gaze.

“What are you staring at!” Tang Xue pushed Tang Shuang hard. Tang Shuang almost hit the hot stove. “If it weren’t for me, do you think you would have a chance to get close to Jiang Ye? You should thank me properly!”

In the blink of an eye, a week passed. Tang Shuang slowly adjusted Jiang Ye’s body to its best state. Next, she needed to start on acupuncture and medicinal bath.
