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

Chapter 69

He squeezed the little girl's fingers. "Why are you so sleepy? Didn't you sleep well last night?"

An Jiuxi frowned. No, she slept very well!

However, her body does sometimes act like this.

Her master once said that her body was different from that of ordinary people because her original spiritual energy had been extracted.

Thinking of her master, An Jiuxi wanted to take out her phone and make a call.

She moved her hand and realized that it was being held tightly by the man.

She glanced up at the person in the wheelchair, who returned her a calm, puzzled look.

An Jiuxi frowned, looking at the faint aura of spiritual energy emanating from their clasped hands, and said nothing, letting him hold them.

With his other hand, he reached into his side pocket, pulled out his phone, and dialed his driver's number.

I thought it was another unanswered call, but to my surprise, it rang a few times and then got through.

An Jiuxi immediately stood up straight. "Master?"

Amidst the whistling wind, a strong voice rang out on the other end of the phone, "My dear Jiu Jiu, do you miss your master? Why did you suddenly decide to call your master?"

Jin Yize, standing to the side, tilted his head slightly, his dark brows slowly furrowing.

Jiujiu...good baby?

"What's so sudden?" An Jiuxi pouted, "I kept calling you, but you didn't answer!"

"Oh dear, is my darling upset?" The strong voice was full of heartache. "Alright, alright, it was Master's fault. Master shouldn't have ignored my darling's calls. Tell me, what do you need Master for?"

An Jiuxi snorted, "Can't I call my master if there's nothing wrong?"

"Yes, of course! My sweetheart can call Master whenever she wants!"

An Jiuxi pouted. Her master was glib and unreliable; eight out of ten of his words were unbelievable.

The remaining two sentences require careful consideration and repeated deliberation.

“There is something I need to take care of,” An Jiuxi explained about her application for a job as an external assistant at the Special Administration Bureau. “Master, I’m making a lot of money now, so how much do you owe? Maybe I can pay it off for you soon!”

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone.

If it weren't for the whistling wind blowing in, she would have thought the other person had hung up.

What exactly is the master doing?

Why is the wind so strong?

run away?

Judging by the wind's gusts, it's probably going to need a talisman to travel a thousand miles a day.

Just as An Jiuxi was feeling puzzled, her master's voice rang out again, "Going to the Special Administration Bureau is fine. Although the guys there are all good-for-nothings, the people behind them are quite capable. With them protecting you, I'll feel more at ease."

He paused, then added, "By the way, if you encounter something you can't solve, you can ask your senior brothers for help."

An Jiuxi was stunned. "Senior brothers...?"

When did she get a senior brother?

Why didn't she know?

"Didn't I tell you? Before you, Master took in eight other disciples. Speaking of which, you're the ninth one, which suits your name quite well!"

An Jiuxi, “…”

Is the question now whether her ranking matches her name?

She now has eight senior brothers, but her master has never mentioned it to her!

“Master…” An Jiuxi gritted her teeth.

Before she could speak, someone hurriedly interrupted, "Oh dear, Jiu Jiu, your master has some urgent business to attend to, so I have to go now. If you need anything, go find your senior brothers!"

"How am I supposed to find my senior brother...?"

blah blah blah!

The call was disconnected!

An Jiuxi, “…”

Not only did she fail to find out how much money her master owed, she also suddenly encountered eight mysterious senior brothers whom she couldn't even locate...

This craftsman is no longer needed!
