After being forced into marriage, the metaphysical master became the darling of the richest family.

Chapter 488

Wen Chuyun's serious expression made An Jiuxi frown.

Under the man's gaze, she could only nod in agreement, "Don't worry, Senior Brother, I'll listen to you."

Wen Chuyun then looked away and took out a white porcelain bottle from the cabinet on the other side.

"Here's the medicine you wanted. Hurry back and give it to the old man."

After giving instructions on medication, Wen Chuyun went upstairs without looking back.

When An Jiuxi and Jin Yize went out together, Wen Chuyun was no longer on the first floor.

"Xixi, do you want to rest a little longer?"

Thinking about all that had happened today, Jin Yize held the little girl's hand very carefully.

It seemed as if he was afraid that if he used too much force, he would make An Jiuxi uncomfortable again.

"I'm fine now, don't be so nervous." An Jiuxi held his fingers tightly, her smile radiant.

It was clearly meant to put his mind at ease.

But as Jin Yize looked at her smiling face, a bitter feeling welled up in his heart.

His Xixi is so good, why did she have to go through so much...?

Thinking of this, Jin Yize unconsciously tightened his grip on her fingers.

"Yize?"

An Jiuxi noticed that he was in a bad mood and, worried that he was uncomfortable, leaned closer to ask him.

When Jin Yize came to his senses, his eyes met the girl's bright, star-like eyes, and he froze.

Their breaths mingled, and an atmosphere of ambiguity rose between them.

"Cough cough." Jin Yize snapped out of his daze, quickly looked away, his earlobes slightly red.

Even now, when he meets An Jiuxi's eyes, he still feels at a loss for what to do.

An Jiuxi blinked, not missing his reddened earlobes, and her smile grew even brighter. "Then let's take a car back first?"

"Okay." Jin Yize nodded and pulled the person away from Tengwang Pavilion.

As soon as the two got into the car, An Jiuxi took out her phone.

"Who does Xixi want to call?" Jin Yize leaned closer, his gaze sweeping over the phone screen.

I was somewhat surprised when I saw the words "Fourth Brother".

"Xi Xi doesn't believe what Wen Chuyun said?"

An Jiuxi paused, her face showing a conflicted expression. "It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that I feel like Senior Brother is hiding something from me."

"Besides, I was with my fourth brother this afternoon, so he definitely knows what happened."

Jin Yize didn't come, so he made an excuse to stop her. He watched helplessly as she made the call, feeling uneasy.

Shi Wenfu... He won't tell An Jiuxi the truth, will he?

He wondered what he should say to comfort the little girl if she felt unwell later.

A gentle male voice came from the phone.

"What's wrong, Xixi?"

An Jiuxi was startled when she heard the voice.

Fourth Brother's voice, isn't it a little too gentle?

An Jiuxi didn't think much of this small change and asked urgently, "Fourth Brother, what exactly happened this afternoon? Why did my spiritual energy suddenly go berserk?"

After a long silence, the person on the other end of the phone replied with a smile.

"Nothing happened. Your senior brother should have already told you. It's because of the difference in spiritual energy between us. I guess you haven't officially recognized your ancestry yet, and the spiritual energy on me thinks you're an enemy..."

The interpretation of Shiwen Fu is exactly the same as that given by Wen Chuyun.

But An Jiuxi increasingly felt that both of them were hiding something from her.

Thinking that the ancient books her master left her were still at Jinshan Manor, she had no way of verifying them now.

All I could do was offer a few words of concern before hanging up the phone.

As she hung up the phone, Shi Wenfu on the other end let out a long sigh of relief.

He raised his eyes and gave a fierce look to Wen Chuyun, who was holding his wrist.

"Why can't we tell Xixi! If she knew sooner, maybe there would be a solution!"
