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

Chapter 549

It was as if he deliberately interrupted her, as if he knew what was going on.

An Jiuxi was having a headache from thinking about it, so she decided to put the matter aside for now and wait until she returned from Yunnan and Guizhou.

......

I woke up early the next morning.

Jin Yize glanced at the sleeping little girl beside him, left a kiss on her forehead, and then turned and got out of bed.

His eyes fell on the clothes lying in the bathroom, and his body stiffened abruptly.

Those flowers, they seem to be from the Shi family's back garden?

"Yize, why are you up so early?"

An Jiuxi yawned and came to Jin Yize's side.

An Jiuxi's heart skipped a beat when she saw the man staring at the clothes on the ground.

"Did you sneak off to the Shi family's house last night?"

Jin Yize's expression was serious, and his voice was colder than An Jiuxi had ever heard before.

She frowned slightly, but still nodded in acknowledgment, "I did go. There was no need for the family to hide it from me when you went."

Jin Yize sighed helplessly, carefully checked her body and found no injuries, then felt relieved.

"Did you see the old man?"

Seeing his serious expression, An Jiuxi shook her head. "What's wrong?"

Judging from Jin Yize's expression, he didn't want her to see Old Master Shi.

Could it be that Old Master Shi has done something detrimental to her?

An Jiuxi couldn't understand why Jin Yize and her fourth brother were so opposed to her going to the Shi family.

"Grandpa said he went to another province to discuss cooperation and won't be back for a while. We probably won't be able to see him until we leave Yunnan and Guizhou."

A hint of regret flickered in An Jiuxi's eyes.

Jin Yize thought about what the old man had told him and hesitated whether to explain it to the young girl in front of him.

"Actually, the old man did have something to discuss with me, but it's very important, and I... don't really want to tell you."

Considering the potential consequences of this matter, Jin Yize really lacked confidence.

Whether I can handle it.

An Jiuxi was taken aback. This was the first time she had ever seen such a hesitant expression on Jin Yize's face. "What exactly is it?"

He remained silent.

An Jiuxi's eyes flashed, as if she had thought of something, "Is it related to me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the person in front of him nodded.

This inevitably reminded her of the scene she saw in the Shi family's collection room.

Could it be... that one?

"Yize, we agreed that we would face everything together, so no matter what it is, even if it means my death, you should tell me."

An Jiuxi gripped the man's hands tightly, her tone firm.

Jin Yize hesitated. He moved his lips and said, "Xixi, I really can't lose you. No matter what kind of loss it is, I can't bear it."

An Jiuxi was startled by his reaction.

Just as I was about to ask for details, my phone rang!

"Who called?"

She looked puzzled and picked up her phone to take a look.

It was actually Yuan Xiaofei?

Jin Yize breathed a sigh of relief. "Answer it first. Yuan Xiaofei usually won't call you unless it's something urgent."

An Jiuxi nodded, realizing the seriousness of the situation.

As the call was answered, Yuan Xiaofei's solemn voice came through.

"Sister Xi, there's a new discovery at Baiyu Snow Mountain."
