Yan Ran rushed into the inner room, where he was soon greeted by a pale-faced Yan Fei lying on her bed. Staggering, he made it to her bedside before his legs gave out beneath him while blobs of tears fell from his eyes.

So, at this moment, where it had all come to an end, she could find it in herself to wear a gentle smile as she stroked her younger brother's messy hair. "Ran, listen to me, alright? I'm happy here—truly happy. These past four years I spent married to the Fang family have been my happiest days. Shixiu is a very kind and sweet person. This big sister of yours is really, truly content. So, even though I'm leaving this world early, I promise you, I have no regrets."

_{"Ran, Xiu is my most beloved person. So if you do love me as a sister, you must heed his words. Do you understand? Going against him is going against me. Not being good to him is not being good to me. I owe him far too much in this life, so whatever difficulties come in the days ahead, you must stay by his side and not let me ever be worried for his sake..."}01.2: A Promise to Yan Fei

_{Fang Shixiu, a handsome man with a towering stature, possessed the noble and elegant air one would find difficult to express. Every motion he made in his belted snow-white robe exuded the grace and elegance of a delicate beauty, while his long, black hair—from where it was bound atop his head by a white silk ribbon—cascaded like a river as it fell behind him.}
"L-little b-brother..." Seeing the boy had grown even more since their last meeting, Yan Fei, in her heart, felt somewhat more aѕsured. Hesitantly, she then extended her hand and wiped away his tears. "Even as a fifteen-year-old adult, how can you still shed so many tears like this? Aren't you ashamed?"

Its shine and tempting lυstre were a world away from the mess of hair sported by Yan Ran.

_{He'ning was their son and the child Yan Fei had just given birth to.}While tears from Fang Shixiu's eyes dampened his lapel as he held Yan Fei tightly in his arms, "We will be happy, and we will be all right."

He'ning was their son and the child Yan Fei had just given birth to.

_{Her lids then fell gently while the corners of her lips pulled lightly into a smile...}Fang Shixiu again looked at Yan Ran. His shoulder-lеngth hair was messy and dull, making it clear from a single look alone that it was the result of malnutrition. But in terms of looks, what stared back at him wildly was a pair of pitch-black eyes frаmed by delicate brows that were quite pretty, along with a pair of thin lips pressed into a line.

Her lids then fell gently while the corners of her lips pulled lightly into a smile...

"Sis..." Some words were better left unsaid. But, once she said this, Yan Ran couldn't help himself from throwing himself into his older sister's embrace and wailing. "Come back home with me. Wouldn't it be better for us to go back home? What good is there in staying in this golden cage? Please... please... sobs"

01.2: A Promise to Yan Fei

_{Yan Ran froze, pinned down by Fang Shixiu's imposing manner—not just because he was taller but also because of his aura.}Fang Shixiu was the one to interject, "He's still young. He's young and has yet to understand the rules."

Yan Ran froze, pinned down by Fang Shixiu's imposing manner—not just because he was taller but also because of his aura.

_{Helplessly, Yan Fei let out a laugh as she then explained. "Xiu, this is your little brother. This is Yan Ran."}Again, Yan Ran let out an internal scoff after hearing that man's words.

Helplessly, Yan Fei let out a laugh as she then explained. "Xiu, this is your little brother. This is Yan Ran."

_{"Sister!" Yan Ran snapped his head upward. "Stop it! Stop speaking nonsense! You're not leaving! You're not going anywhere! You're staying right here—you're staying here with me forever!"}Yan Fei, struggling to breathe and with her breaths reduced to pants, then spoke. "I-it's alright. I'm fine. I'm already used to it... Ah—he's back... Xiu, this is Yan Ran."

"Sister!" Yan Ran snapped his head upward. "Stop it! Stop speaking nonsense! You're not leaving! You're not going anywhere! You're staying right here—you're staying here with me forever!"

_{That chaotic heart of Yan Ran's now trembled. What a terrible man!}
At his tearful pleas, even Yan Ran's eyes began to grow heated.

That chaotic heart of Yan Ran's now trembled. What a terrible man!

Only three people were left in the room. Beside Yan Fei's bed, Yan Ran was on his knees, on the verge of crying. But the fear of making things hаrder on his sister had given him the strength to suppress this urge, and in its stead, those tears of his did nothing but well in his eyes. "Sis, please don't be upset. I promise—I swear to you that I will listen to everything you say."

_{A tall man entered the room. Thinking of making a run for the door, Yan Ran bolted, but he was seized by that man, who whispered in his ear, "Behave yourself with me for a little while. This may be your sister's final moment! And if you dare hurt her once more, I swear I will end your life myself!"}Fang Shixiu, who only focused on her, moved swiftly to tuck two pillows behind her after she got up.

Her lids then fell gently while the corners of her lips pulled lightly into a smile...

_{Lifting his gaze, Yan Ran, for the first time, stared down at the foe that had stolen his sister.}
Hаrd times were something she had known well since her youth. But after marrying Fang Shixiu, all she knew was the affection that came with being loved by him in every possible way. Sometimes, such happiness also left her feeling uneasy—making her fear that gaining too much bliss would result in her life being shortened.

Lifting his gaze, Yan Ran, for the first time, stared down at the foe that had stolen his sister.

But after living a life like this, she had long been more than satisfied to the fullest.

Yan Fei smiled softly, until her chеst suddenly tightened and her face grew much more pallid.

While tears from Fang Shixiu's eyes dampened his lapel as he held Yan Fei tightly in his arms, "We will be happy, and we will be all right."

_{But, in that very instant, Yan Fei burst out in a fit of coughs, where each heave expelled blood. Her situation made the doctor, who had entered the room earlier and had been standing off to the side, rush towards her hastily. But Yan Fei only waved him away and said, "Please stand back. I still have something important to say to them. After I'm finished, I'll allow you to treat me."}Hearing his sister's words, Yan Ran forced back his cries to answer. "Whatever you say, I will do. I'll be good to him. I'll listen to him. But, Sister, please get better. Please don't leave me—please!"

Without him, I wouldn't want to live so much as a day, and I think that this feeling is one he shares with me as well! But he has given me so much happiness, while I haven't repaid him for all the joy he has blessed me with in return. Our children still haven't grown up yet... In the future, I truly hope there can be someone who can love him even more than you do me. Someone who'll love him and give him a life filled with even more joy. So, Ran, please do me this favour and look out for him. Please don't let him do anything foolish. His goal is to become the God of the Sword, and he hasn't achieved that dream yet. The day he accomplishes it, Ran, I want you to witness it in my place—cough, cough... cough, cough, cough..."

He was the perfect man. A man whose cultivation, bearing, and behaviour left no area for complaint.

_{"Sister!" Yan Ran snapped his head upward. "Stop it! Stop speaking nonsense! You're not leaving! You're not going anywhere! You're staying right here—you're staying here with me forever!"}
Startled, Yan Fei, not daring to do so much as move the hand holding her, turned his head towards the young maidservant and shouted, "Why are you still just standing there? Go find a doctor—hurry!"

Fang Shixiu, who only focused on her, moved swiftly to tuck two pillows behind her after she got up.

_{Whatever Fang Shixiu said to Yan Ran beyond his earlier words had fallen on deaf ears, however, as Yan Ran was now staring at him in a stupor while lost in confusion over the flush of heat in his cheeks that pricked along with the odd feeling in his heart that was closer to the sensation of being burned.}
Yan Fei, struggling to breathe and with her breaths reduced to pants, then spoke. "I-it's alright. I'm fine. I'm already used to it... Ah—he's back... Xiu, this is Yan Ran."

_{Her lids then fell gently while the corners of her lips pulled lightly into a smile...}Once more, Yan Fei brought the two's hands together, then, after doing so, again laid back on the bed as she told them weakly, "Apart from my parents, who are no longer in this world, you two are my most beloved, my most cherished, and... the one's I worry for the most. Ranran is still so young and so stubborn... so Xiu, from now on, you'll have to look out for him a bit more, alright? Without me here, I'm scared he'll end up going astray, so... cou-cough—cough. It's okay. Please let me continue. He's... he's a pure-hearted kid. Whatever he loves, he loves madly with reckless abandon. And because the one he loves the most is me, he'll ignore you out of jealousy. But as siblings, ever since we were small, he has liked all the same things I do, so I think he will come to like you and rely on you just the same way too. So until that time comes, all I ask of you is to bear with him a bit, alright?"

Her lids then fell gently while the corners of her lips pulled lightly into a smile...

_{Slowly, Yan Ran dragged himself to his sister's bedside and made it a habit to avoid meeting Fang Shixiu's eyes once more.}Turning his head, Yan Ran then cried out to Fang Shixiu in a rigid tone: "Jiefu. (Brother-in-law)"

Slowly, Yan Ran dragged himself to his sister's bedside and made it a habit to avoid meeting Fang Shixiu's eyes once more.

_{And in response, the older man smiled while tousling the young lad's hair. "Yes, Ran, from now on, we're all just one family."}
"Ran, come. Come here."

And in response, the older man smiled while tousling the young lad's hair. "Yes, Ran, from now on, we're all just one family."

_{Upon hearing these words, the ailing woman's lips curled upward in a smile of relief. "Good, that's good to hear."}
At his sister's call, Yan Ran first shot a glance Fang Shixiu's way, which had the misfortune of meeting the eyes that man had also fixed in his direction. Yan Ran shuddered. Not only was the gaze that met him overflowing with harshness, it was as stern as it was sharp.

Upon hearing these words, the ailing woman's lips curled upward in a smile of relief. "Good, that's good to hear."

_{But it lasted no longer than a quick glance before returning to Yan Fei. Once his eyes were on his beloved, it had become so warm and gentle it could've melted into water on the spot.}

_{The fearful doctor looked towards Fang Shixiu after hearing her words, and upon seeing that man wave him away as well, he obediently made his exit.}"Promise me. Promise me you will take care of one another in the future and allow yourselves to be happy. Promise me so I don't leave this life with worry."

The fearful doctor looked towards Fang Shixiu after hearing her words, and upon seeing that man wave him away as well, he obediently made his exit.

_{"Xiu, after I'm gone, if you still have any love for me, please take good care of Yan Ran for my sake. As long as my brother lives, I will live on as well. Treat him as you would me. This is the last time I will make things difficult for you, alright? I know... I know the one you love the most dearly is me."}
That chaotic heart of Yan Ran's now trembled. What a terrible man!

_{The coughs Yan Fei broke into this time were far more severe and impossible for her to suppress. Fang Shixiu then turned to call the doctor, but after the man ran in, Yan Fei pushed him away and kept both her brother's and husband's hands in a deadly, firm grip.}
Slowly, Yan Ran dragged himself to his sister's bedside and made it a habit to avoid meeting Fang Shixiu's eyes once more.

_{"Ran, come. Come here."}
Sadly, Yan Fei herself had now reached for his hand, along with Fang Shixiu's, and brought the two together. But, without a second thought, Yan Ran had pulled his hand back, and even the reluctant Fang Shixiu had also pulled his away.

"Ran, come. Come here."

_{"Ran, call him Jiefu (brother-in-law)." Again, Yan Fei turned her gaze towards Yan Ran.}But that boy only let out a "humph" while refusing to speak a word.

"Ran, call him Jiefu (brother-in-law)." Again, Yan Fei turned her gaze towards Yan Ran.

_{Heeding his cry, the young servant girl ran out.}
Helplessly, Yan Fei let out a laugh as she then explained. "Xiu, this is your little brother. This is Yan Ran."

Heeding his cry, the young servant girl ran out.

_{Yan Fei smiled after she spoke for a moment before her eyes turned to Yan Ran. The look in the gaze she pointed his way was no different than that given by a mother to her wayward child—pained while nonetheless brimming with indulgence.}Hаrd times were something she had known well since her youth. But after marrying Fang Shixiu, all she knew was the affection that came with being loved by him in every possible way. Sometimes, such happiness also left her feeling uneasy—making her fear that gaining too much bliss would result in her life being shortened.

Yan Fei smiled after she spoke for a moment before her eyes turned to Yan Ran. The look in the gaze she pointed his way was no different than that given by a mother to her wayward child—pained while nonetheless brimming with indulgence.

_{Hearing his sister's words, Yan Ran forced back his cries to answer. "Whatever you say, I will do. I'll be good to him. I'll listen to him. But, Sister, please get better. Please don't leave me—please!"}
Fang Shixiu again looked at Yan Ran. His shoulder-lеngth hair was messy and dull, making it clear from a single look alone that it was the result of malnutrition. But in terms of looks, what stared back at him wildly was a pair of pitch-black eyes frаmed by delicate brows that were quite pretty, along with a pair of thin lips pressed into a line.

Hearing his sister's words, Yan Ran forced back his cries to answer. "Whatever you say, I will do. I'll be good to him. I'll listen to him. But, Sister, please get better. Please don't leave me—please!"

_{Her lids then fell gently while the corners of her lips pulled lightly into a smile...}
Not a thing, not a damn bit, of this child would be easy to handle at all!

Her lids then fell gently while the corners of her lips pulled lightly into a smile...

_{01.2: A Promise to Yan Fei}So, at this moment, where it had all come to an end, she could find it in herself to wear a gentle smile as she stroked her younger brother's messy hair. "Ran, listen to me, alright? I'm happy here—truly happy. These past four years I spent married to the Fang family have been my happiest days. Shixiu is a very kind and sweet person. This big sister of yours is really, truly content. So, even though I'm leaving this world early, I promise you, I have no regrets."

_{But that boy only let out a "humph" while refusing to speak a word.}
"Ran, call him Jiefu (brother-in-law)." Again, Yan Fei turned her gaze towards Yan Ran.

But that boy only let out a "humph" while refusing to speak a word.

_{That chaotic heart of Yan Ran's now trembled. {What a terrible man!}}"L-little b-brother..." Seeing the boy had grown even more since their last meeting, Yan Fei, in her heart, felt somewhat more aѕsured. Hesitantly, she then extended her hand and wiped away his tears. "Even as a fifteen-year-old adult, how can you still shed so many tears like this? Aren't you ashamed?"

_{A tall man entered the room. Thinking of making a run for the door, Yan Ran bolted, but he was seized by that man, who whispered in his ear, "Behave yourself with me for a little while. This may be your sister's final moment! And if you dare hurt her once more, I swear I will end your life myself!"}Fang Shixiu then went straight to Yan Fei's bedside, where he sat before gently lifting her hand into his own. "Father has seen He'ning, and he is already quite fond of him."

_{The fearful doctor looked towards Fang Shixiu after hearing her words, and upon seeing that man wave him away as well, he obediently made his exit.}
Fang Shixiu was the one to interject, "He's still young. He's young and has yet to understand the rules."

_{"Promise me. Promise me you will take care of one another in the future and allow yourselves to be happy. Promise me so I don't leave this life with worry."}
Again, Yan Ran let out an internal scoff after hearing that man's words.

"Promise me. Promise me you will take care of one another in the future and allow yourselves to be happy. Promise me so I don't leave this life with worry."

Slowly, Yan Ran dragged himself to his sister's bedside and made it a habit to avoid meeting Fang Shixiu's eyes once more.

_{Yan Ran froze, pinned down by Fang Shixiu's imposing manner—not just because he was taller but also because of his aura.}
But, in that very instant, Yan Fei burst out in a fit of coughs, where each heave expelled blood. Her situation made the doctor, who had entered the room earlier and had been standing off to the side, rush towards her hastily. But Yan Fei only waved him away and said, "Please stand back. I still have something important to say to them. After I'm finished, I'll allow you to treat me."

_{That chaotic heart of Yan Ran's now trembled. {What a terrible man!}}Only three people were left in the room. Beside Yan Fei's bed, Yan Ran was on his knees, on the verge of crying. But the fear of making things hаrder on his sister had given him the strength to suppress this urge, and in its stead, those tears of his did nothing but well in his eyes. "Sis, please don't be upset. I promise—I swear to you that I will listen to everything you say."

Once more, Yan Fei brought the two's hands together, then, after doing so, again laid back on the bed as she told them weakly, "Apart from my parents, who are no longer in this world, you two are my most beloved, my most cherished, and... the one's I worry for the most. Ranran is still so young and so stubborn... so Xiu, from now on, you'll have to look out for him a bit more, alright? Without me here, I'm scared he'll end up going astray, so... cou-cough—cough. It's okay. Please let me continue. He's... he's a pure-hearted kid. Whatever he loves, he loves madly with reckless abandon. And because the one he loves the most is me, he'll ignore you out of jealousy. But as siblings, ever since we were small, he has liked all the same things I do, so I think he will come to like you and rely on you just the same way too. So until that time comes, all I ask of you is to bear with him a bit, alright?"

_{Sadly, Yan Fei herself had now reached for his hand, along with Fang Shixiu's, and brought the two together. But, without a second thought, Yan Ran had pulled his hand back, and even the reluctant Fang Shixiu had also pulled his away.}
"Ran, when the day comes that you meet the woman you will love, you will understand how important your brother-in-law is to your sister—to me. Without him, I wouldn't want to live so much as a day, and I think that this feeling is one he shares with me as well! But he has given me so much happiness, while I haven't repaid him for all the joy he has blessed me with in return. Our children still haven't grown up yet... In the future, I truly hope there can be someone who can love him even more than you do me. Someone who'll love him and give him a life filled with even more joy. So, Ran, please do me this favour and look out for him. Please don't let him do anything foolish. His goal is to become the God of the Sword, and he hasn't achieved that dream yet. The day he accomplishes it, Ran, I want you to witness it in my place—cough, cough... cough, cough, cough..."

_{Startled, Yan Fei, not daring to do so much as move the hand holding her, turned his head towards the young maidservant and shouted, "Why are you still just standing there? Go find a doctor—hurry!"}"Ran, Xiu is my most beloved person. So if you do love me as a sister, you must heed his words. Do you understand? Going against him is going against me. Not being good to him is not being good to me. I owe him far too much in this life, so whatever difficulties come in the days ahead, you must stay by his side and not let me ever be worried for his sake..."

_{Fang Shixiu, a handsome man with a towering stature, possessed the noble and elegant air one would find difficult to express. Every motion he made in his belted snow-white robe exuded the grace and elegance of a delicate beauty, while his long, black hair—from where it was bound atop his head by a white silk ribbon—cascaded like a river as it fell behind him.}But it lasted no longer than a quick glance before returning to Yan Fei. Once his eyes were on his beloved, it had become so warm and gentle it could've melted into water on the spot.
