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

Chapter 71

"What's wrong? You look terrible."

As she spoke, she reached out to place her fingers on the man's wrist pulse.

Jin Yize withdrew his hand, his dodging action bordering on panic.

"It's okay, my shoulder is a little numb from all the pressure you've been putting on it!"

An Jiuxi, “…”

A blush crept onto the girl's fair cheeks. "Excuse me," she paused, "you could have pushed me away."

She never expected to sleep so soundly.

Seeing the girl's embarrassed expression, Jin Yize smiled and felt quite pleased.

Just as they were about to invite the little girl into the house, Old Master Jin came out of the villa in a panic.

Upon seeing An Jiuxi, he immediately stepped forward, "Little Xi, come with me quickly."

He grabbed An Jiuxi's wrist and dragged her out.

Fortunately, An Jiuxi had a stable lower body and was not dragged down by him.

"Grandpa, what happened?"

The old man explained quickly, "An old friend of mine is having some trouble at home. His grandson is on the verge of death. You should come with me to take a look, okay?"

Human life is at stake, so An Jiuxi naturally wouldn't refuse.

She turned to look at Jin Yize, "I'm going with Grandpa, you..."

"I'll go with you!" Jin Yize waved his hand, and Lu Huaisang quickly pushed him forward. He looked at the little girl and slowly added, "Just in case."

An Jiuxi knew perfectly well what this "unexpected need" referred to.

He nodded and said nothing more.

The old man couldn't help but glance at his son.

That brat has always been cold-hearted and indifferent. He doesn't care much about outsiders, or even about things at home.

Now they've actually offered to go and help.

The old man looked at Jin Yize, then at An Jiuxi, and his eyes held a meaningful look.

It seems that marrying Xi was the wisest decision he ever made in his life!

Everyone got into the car, and Lu Huaisang took over the driver's position and started driving.

The old man pulled An Jiuxi to sit in the back seat, squeezing Jin Yize into the passenger seat.

He claimed he wanted to tell An Jiuxi about his old friend's grandson.

Mr. Jin's friend, surnamed Li, made his fortune in real estate and is one of the top real estate developers in China.

For three generations, the family had only one son per generation, and in this generation, having offspring has become even more difficult.

The old man's son was over forty years old when he had this one child, and the whole family doted on him like the apple of their eye.

Even so, the child still had an accident.

Last weekend, it was a birthday party for one of my child's kindergarten classmates, and we invited him to our home.

Grandpa Li personally took the child there, but on the way back he received a call from a classmate asking when the child would arrive.

This startled Old Master Li. He had just personally delivered the child to the other party, so why was he asking when the child would arrive?

Grandpa Li rushed back, but couldn't find his grandson anywhere. He immediately started making a scene and even called the police.

But it wasn't just that family; other parents and children who came to the birthday party also said they didn't see Grandpa Li bring their children over.

Police reviewed surveillance footage from the villa area and found that Mr. Li's car only entered and exited the villa area once, after he received the news and rushed back to confront the authorities.

Grandpa Li immediately sensed something was wrong and mobilized his family to search for people.

The police didn't dare to be negligent either, and with the cooperation of both sides, the child was finally found in an abandoned residential area.

However, the bizarre situation shocked everyone.

The child is only three years old and has just started kindergarten, but his skin is as wrinkled and rough as withered tree bark.

It's like... suddenly aging decades!

After listening to the old man's words, An Jiuxi frowned slightly, seemingly lost in thought.
