Chapter 390

Before An Jiuxi could ask what Shi Yao meant by those words, she felt a sudden dizziness.

When she woke up again, she was already back in her bedroom.

There was a noise at the door, and Jiang Wan pushed the door open and entered.

Seeing that she had woken up, he subconsciously glanced at the bedside, where the peach wood sword that should have been standing was nowhere to be seen.

It must have gone back into her bag.

"Xixi, is there anything wrong with your body?" Jiang Wan sat on the edge of the bed, holding the woman's small hand, her spiritual energy covering her pulse.

The resistance disappeared.

"Am I unconscious?" An Jiuxi raised her hand to rub her temples, suddenly feeling that something was different about her body.

She subconsciously pulled her hand away from Jiang Wan's grasp and sat down to examine her spiritual energy sea.

The remaining six small holes have been reduced to three!

It's clear that her mother helped her!

An Jiuxi opened her eyes and looked at Jiang Wan with joy, "Sister Jiang Wan, my body has recovered a bit. It was the spiritual energy left behind by my mother that helped me!"

Although that's what she said, An Jiuxi felt even more sorry for Shi Yao.

You should know that... for a Xuanmen practitioner to leave behind spiritual energy, they need to forcibly extract a wisp of their own innate spiritual energy.

That kind of pain felt like having your heart ripped out!

Jiang Wan rubbed the little girl's head and said, "Shi Yao can die without regrets if she can see you again."

An Jiuxi's smile faded slightly, and she couldn't help but sigh as she sat on the bed.

Just then, the bedroom door was pushed open again.

Jin Yize strode in and, seeing An Jiuxi sitting on the bed, assumed she had just woken up and didn't think much of it.

"Dinner's ready, shall we go downstairs together?"

Jiang Wan tactfully got up and left first, leaving the young couple alone.

Overwhelmed with emotion at Shi Yao's appearance, a dark glint flashed in her eyes as she thought of the peach wood sword.

No matter what... we can't let Xiaoxi have any connection with the Shi family in the capital!

That's not a place for a girl!

Thinking of this, Jiang Wan secretly planned to stay close to An Jiuxi in the future.

As for Shi Wenfu, who's been bothering her little girl, she needs to find a way to get rid of him as soon as possible!

Inside the bedroom, An Jiuxi, unaware of Jiang Wan's schemes, held Jin Yize's hand and recounted what had just happened.

"Your mother-in-law will surely be pleased that you are so healthy, and she will have no regrets in the afterlife."

"It's just that... he's never met me, his prospective son-in-law."

The man's tone was full of regret, and his serious expression warmed An Jiuxi's heart.

She reached out and tugged at the man's cheek. "Then next Qingming Festival, I'll introduce you to my mother?"

Jin Yize was taken aback. "Where should we meet?"

Judging from the expression on his face, An Jiuxi knew that this man must have intended to meet somewhere else.

Unable to resist the urge to tease him, she deliberately leaned closer to the man, a slight smile playing on her lips, "Of course, I'm going to where I'm supposed to be, to see him."

Jin Yize's mind flashed through images of the underworld from TV dramas, and he couldn't help but swallow hard.

"Really go?"

Seeing the hesitation on his face, An Jiuxi blinked, feigning doubt, "Yize, are you willing? Then I'll tell my mother in advance that we won't go..."

Before she could finish speaking, someone covered her mouth.

"Yes, yes, yes! I definitely will! After all, she's my mother-in-law!"

Jin Yize's anxious appearance seemed somewhat comical to An Jiuxi.

Seeing his fearful yet determined expression, she couldn't help but laugh and reached out to pinch his cheek.

"Alright, stop overthinking it. What I mean is that we're going to the cemetery to see my mother, not to some underworld."

Upon hearing An Jiuxi's words, Jin Yize felt relieved.

"That's fine, that's fine."

After saying that, Jin Yize narrowed his eyes, realizing that An Jiuxi was teasing him.
