I remembered what my father once said: “Sang Yi, if you become weak, then you will be the most pitiful person in this world.”
I do not want to be a pitiful person.
Father, Brother, you will always be with me, right?
I said hoarsely, “Doctor Sun, don’t tell anyone about this.”
“Many people are waiting to see the joke of This Palace.”
“This Palace doesn’t want…”
“This Palace doesn’t want…”
I couldn’t continue.
My voice was already choked with emotion.
One day, Awei was crying outside the courtyard, murmuring, “Your Highness, Your Highness! I can’t go on living! What should I do?”
I was furious; I’m not dead yet!
When she came in, she secretly wiped away her tears and then stealthily pulled out a small cat from her sleeve.
The kitten was thin and sickly.
“Your Highness, please save it; it’s about to die.”
I was so angry that I almost laughed.
I told her to quickly take the cat and get lost.
“Take good care of it and don’t bring it back to bother me.”
“Yes.”
She left happily.
The next day at noon, I had just woken up.
I saw that sick cat burying its head in my bowl drinking milk.
Its belly looked like it was about to burst.
I was startled and quickly cradled it in my hands.
"Stop drinking, stop drinking, or you'll burst!"
Awei heard the commotion and rushed in, "What's going on?"
The cat let out a loud "meow" and started having diarrhea, vomiting everywhere.
I stood there awkwardly, holding my hands.
Awei was also stunned and after a while shouted, "Oh no, what happened to it—"
Tears streamed down my face as I said, "Awei, my hands!"
After finishing its business, the cat pounced on the bowl to drink milk.
Awei was both angry and amused, scolding it while wiping its mouth.
I originally thought the cat wouldn't survive, but unexpectedly it became lively day by day.
It loved to drink the milk from my bowl.
Whenever Awei brought me milk, he had to hurry me to drink it.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be any left for me soon.
Thanks to Sick Cat, my appetite improved as well.
Seeing that I was feeling better, Awei personally knitted a few yarn balls, hoping Sick Cat would play with me.
However, neither Sick Cat nor I liked yarn balls.
Every day we would climb up the tree and play hide-and-seek with the sparrows.
One day, while I was climbing in the tree,
suddenly a loud shout came from below: "The Emperor has arrived—"
I looked down and saw Liangqiu Hongxin looking up at me with a puzzled expression.
I found it amusing all of a sudden.
He frowned and said, "Why are you up in the tree? It's dangerous; come down quickly."
I was laughing when suddenly I felt a sharp pain in my chest.
Unable to grip the tree trunk, my whole body swayed precariously.
Liangqiu Hongxin opened his hands, ready to catch me.
"Sang Yi, don't be afraid, jump down, I'll catch you."
In that moment, I felt as if I had returned to the past.
During that time, he truly treated me very well.
A wave of softness surged in my heart. I closed my eyes and told myself that if he could catch me, I would say goodbye to him properly.
From then on, we would part ways completely.
Just then, a cry came from outside the door.
"Hongxin, my arm was scratched by a cat, it hurts so much."
Liangqiu Hongxin, who will you choose?
I let go of my hand.
Although the tree was not high,
and although I landed on soft ground,
my tears still flowed.

The prince entered the capital to pay tribute.
A grand banquet was held in the palace.
Puyi accompanied Liangqiu Hongxin and happened to sit next to me.
She wore an extravagant cloak, her fox fur more luxurious than mine.
She looked at me and smiled provocatively, "Sang Yi, long time no see."
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of the ring on my ring finger.
Her expression immediately darkened.
