I just broke up with my boyfriend and then I transmigrated into the world of "The Lost Tomb&quo

The icy water engulfed Ling Xiao, swallowing his consciousness. In his dazed state, he forgot how to breathe…

He struggled to sit up and coughed violently until a mouthful of water went down his trachea.

"Ling Xiao!" Xie Yuhua heard the child coughing as if he had choked on water, and knocked on the bathroom door, asking, "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine, don't worry," Ling Xiao replied. He just wanted to calm down. He felt that as his bloodline developed, he was becoming less and less like himself. He began to doubt and deny himself occasionally, like the suicide he thought about on the Ferris wheel, like just now... were those his own thoughts? Also, when his bloodline was developing, why did the pain disappear after Jieyuhua expressed closeness to him?

Headache····

Ling Xiao walked out of the bathroom, and Xie Yuhua was standing at the door. Xie Yuhua took a towel and covered the child's head to wipe him. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed that there was no steam in the bathroom. She then touched the child's neck with her fingertips, and sure enough, it was ice cold.

Xie Yuhua sighed softly and said, "I'll prepare water for you next time you want to take a bath." Before Ling Xiao could even speak, Xie Yuhua added, "If we have time tomorrow, let's go pray to Buddha together!"

Ling Xiao looked at him in surprise and asked, "You still believe in this?"

"This is my first time too. I heard there's a temple that's really good at helping couples find love. Many couples go there to pray for their loved ones' safety. Buddha will remember their partner's face after seeing them and then bless them. I want to take you there to try it out." Xie Yuhua gently wiped Ling Xiao's wet hair, her tone filled with anticipation.

"I've heard that temples help couples find true love and sever karmic ties. Aren't you afraid..." Ling Xiao hadn't finished speaking when Xie Yuhua covered his mouth and said, "We are a perfect match!"

Ling Xiao nodded and said, "If you want to go, then we will go."

After wiping the child's hair, Xie Yuhua took out a hairdryer to dry it. The hairdryer whirred loudly, making it impossible to hear anything else except the sound of the machine. Only then did Xie Yuhua slowly say, "I just want you to be safe."

The moment Xie Yuhua spoke, Ling Xiao leaned back and fell into her arms, muttering, "I'll be safe."

After drying his hair, Xie Yuhua pinched Ling Xiao's earlobe and asked, "Are you hungry? The porridge from the kitchen is cold. What would you like to eat? I'll make it for you."

Ling Xiao turned his head and could see Xie Yuhua's Adam's apple. He stared at the rising and falling Adam's apple and asked in a joking tone, "How come I didn't know that Master Hua could cook?"

He then turned around, pushed Xie Yuhua down onto the bed, and said fiercely with a cat-like expression, "So, Master Hua is a big liar!"

Xie Yuhua was taken aback. He wanted to explain that he hadn't lied to the child, but then he heard the child say, "You lied to me about my food, and now you've lied to me too!" Ling Xiao pinched Xie Yuhua's chin with his fingertips and threatened, "Does Master Hua know what happens when you lie to me?"

Knowing that the child was just playing around, Xie Yuhua let him be and asked, "What will happen?"

"You'll be tied up and locked in a cage, how about that? Are you scared, Master Hua?" Ling Xiao whispered in Xie Yuhua's ear, his voice ambiguous.

Jieyuhua adopted a surrendering posture, pretending to beg for mercy, and said, "I'm scared! I was wrong, I didn't lie to you. It's just that I don't know many dishes. I can learn to cook whatever you want to eat. You can teach me, and I'll cook for you, okay?"

After saying that, Xie Yuhua and Ling Xiao switched directions. Ling Xiao tried to break free several times but failed. Xie Yuhua grabbed the child's wrist, raised the child's hand above the child's head, and kissed the corner of the child's mouth, saying, "What would my child like to eat?"

"No sincerity! It's like you can make whatever I want to eat!" Ling Xiao kicked Xie Yuhua's leg and said, "Go make your specialty dish!"

"Okay!" Xie Yuhua kissed the child's neck again before letting go. He enjoyed the child's affectionate behavior. The child wasn't fierce at all; instead, it made him feel all tingly inside.
