'Cutting flesh to save the mother, so this is how my illness can be cured.'
'I truly am a solitary star that brings disaster, cursing my father, my mother, my kin, my child, and in my old age, I still harm my granddaughter.'

"Grandpa, did you catch a cold? Is your throat uncomfortable?" Qu Jing asked.
"No." Qu the Hunter forced a smile, his voice a bit hoarse, "By the way, Jingjing, has it been a while since grandpa last made rice cakes for you?"
"We ate them during the New Year."
