Chapter 2:Moment of Peace

An unknown time later Qiuyue's finger twitched. Opens her eye and saw only darkness "So I have gone to purgatory" spoke.

Qiuyue knows there will be no heaven for her. A hearing sound of footsteps she closes her eye and prepares to receive hell minions torture. But she was wrong.

"Sis are you okay" with childish sound someone removes cloth blocking her eye. What came to her view was old but sturdy looking room and a small girl dressed in ragged clothes stained with dirt holding wet cloth.

"I'm-I'm alive?" spoke Qiuyue, checks her body to affirm it is not an illusion.

Thin, crippled and covered in scars of all types and sizes. Touching her right eye she felt nothing. This was her body and proof she is alive.

Qiuyue tried to move but girl stops her "Please sis don't move your wound will open" and swaps cloth. Felling comfortable she slowly closes her eye.

A week later.

In front of a rundown shack located in front of a forest, there is a woman missing a left arm seen trying to chop a wood but with her thin arm, she struggles to lift a chopping axe.

"A! sis stop you still haven’t completely recovered yet ?" appears small girl from the shack and stops woman's action.

"Yun don't worry I already recovered let me help you."

spoke woman. She is Qiuyue it is been a week since she saved by three orphans from a forest. A girl now asking her to go bed and rest is Yun youngest from three.

Yun really doesn't want Qiuyue work because she remembers horrible state her body in. Also hearing Qiuyue doesn't have any place to go she wanted her to stay with along with her brothers.

"Hey granny don't try to do something beyond your limit what will happen your old back snaps" a boy a head taller than Yun walks towards Qiuyue along with another boy holding two rabbits. Those two is Ling and Min just returning from hunting a food.

Despite his rude remarks Ling takes an axe from her hand and begin to chop wood showing his well-shaped back. "Sorry for not being much help," said Qiuyue.

"It is an okay lady don't push your body it is been the only week," Min said while skinning rabbits for dinner.

Seeing rabbit meat Yun happily run towards house while holding Qiuyue's hand "Yaay! rabbit let's make a soup I have some leftover mushroom sis let's wash it"

Inside the hut, there were only a few crude furnishings placed inside, a dining table, some long benches, and a mirror beside the table.

For previous royalty like Qiuyue, it was like heaven and earth in past few days, but in opposite she felt like at home now. In her previous Jin family, every day was full of backstabbing and hidden plots there was no single day without peace. She spent all of her days thinking how to get strong and how to kill someone to protect her secret.

While in mid of her thought Qiuyue hears "Sis will you go ?". Moving her head she saw Yun with her clear blue eye.

"No, I will stay here now let's be quick after the dinner I teach you a trick," said Qiuyue with a gentle smile.

Seeing her smile Yun said "Sis is very pretty" with an innocent look. Qiuyue begins laughs hearing little girl's word.

What a weird child calling woman missing one eye and one arm a pretty. Qiuyue thought.
