The moment the antique box was opened, Boss Ma was taken aback. It seemed that Yu Songyu's background was not simple; several of the items were genuine treasures.
Among these items were a few official seals, shimmering with iridescent colors, indicating their excellent condition. They must have been passed down through generations, each worth around ten thousand.
"Boss Ma, I have a good idea of what these are worth. Just verify them and let me know the total; I trust your integrity!"
"Hahaha, thank you for your trust, Miss Yu! Let me take a look!"
Before long, Boss Ma removed his gloves and took a sip of tea. "Miss Yu, the package price is a hundred thousand. What do you think?"
Yu Songyu had no understanding of antiques; he was merely pretending to know and was actually deceiving him. Selling these items one by one would be troublesome; it would be better to sell them all at once for convenience.
However, he didn’t want to let Boss Ma walk away without any profit. Meanwhile, Bai Jie was astonished—how could they have made a hundred thousand in such a short time? Their cozy home and beautiful garden depended on this money!
She remembered the painting she and Yu Songyu had completed together as children; it depicted their dream home. There were colorful little houses, some two stories high, others three stories, and even single-story ones. Some houses had large windmills installed on them. The yard was filled with roses, and there was a lovely swing.
"Cough cough, let's go!"
Seeing Bai Jie lost in thought, Yu Songyu awkwardly cleared his throat twice and gently patted her wrist.
"Oh, right!"
Once they exited Antique Street, Bai Jie continued to chatter excitedly in his ear. "Xiao Yu, let’s get a swimming pool! That way we can play in the water."
"Sure!"
"Did you know? I really want a garden! That way we can grow whatever we want to eat—safe and healthy, all organic!"
"Hey, last time you mentioned giving the dog Spirit Spring Water, and it could actually communicate with humans! We should get a few dogs!"
"Sure! But unfortunately, we don't have enough money. Otherwise, we could build a castle. That would really make me feel like a princess from a fairy tale, ha ha ha!"
"Uh, Xiao Jie, if you have some free time, why don't you go buy a car? I'm tired and planning to soak in the hot springs!"
If Yu Songyu didn't interrupt her, this girl could go on talking forever.
"Are you coming back tonight? What about your rounds at the hospital?"
"Help me with the discharge procedures. I feel like I'm almost recovered. I should be fine resting in the space!"
Bai Jie walked away cheerfully, leaving Yu Songyu's ears finally at peace.
Since Spirit Spring Water has health benefits, soaking in it should help with her recovery, right?
Struggling to get up, she took off her clothes and looked at herself in the mirror.
Her external injuries had long healed without leaving any scars. She was relieved that she didn't have a scar-prone constitution; even the wounds on her lower back and collarbone had shrunk to the size of a coin-sized red mark.
Slowly stepping into the spring water, she felt the soothing flow wash over her.
The flowers blooming by the pond were vibrant and alluring. Yu Songyu plucked a handful of petals and chewed on them.
A familiar warmth coursed through her body, but unlike before, she felt inexplicable pain in certain areas.
Yu Songyu clenched her fists as beads of sweat began to form on her forehead.
This pain made her mind incredibly clear; she could distinctly feel her internal organs being torn apart and reassembled.
Tiny beads of sweat trickled down her forehead, cheeks, and neck, finally splashing into the water and creating small ripples.
She lost track of time as the pain gradually subsided, and Yu Songyu's consciousness became sharper.
