Ever since Su Huiqing fell asleep on the private jet, she felt that something was wrong. Something seemed to be affecting her emotions, and she couldn’t tell what it was. As a doctor, she should be the clearest about her own health, but she couldn’t find any traces of her headache.
This feeling was so painful that it made one feel terrible.
She felt that she had forgotten something, but Yu Shijin never said anything. Damn it, she trusted him for some reason.
“It’s fine.” Yu Shijin held her fingers with his right hand, lowered his head, and kissed her lips, silently comforting her.
Su Huiqing just raised her eyes slightly. Those eyes that were usually cold to a certain extent now had a dazed look, and her thin lips slowly regained their color.
Yu Shijin lowered his eyes and looked at the person beside him, for whom he had been searching for so long. Every time he found her, she would quickly disappear again. He had searched for so long and thought about it just the same. He didn’t even dare to admit it when he found her. He was afraid that the damn rules would cause trouble again when they acknowledged each other.
Now that she was so close, this matter could be resolved very quickly.
“Don’t worry, this time, it will really be resolved.” Yu Shijin placed his other hand behind her head and slowly bent down. His voice was no longer as cold as before, but it had a hint of suppressed hoarseness.
In the daze, Su Huiqing could only vaguely hear one sentence.
“Su Huiqing,”—that voice was a little unreal—”wait for me to come back.”
She wanted to open her eyes, but her eyes seemed to be glued shut. She couldn’t open them no matter what, and she only fell into darkness again.
When Su Huiqing woke up, it was already the day after.
When Yu Qin knocked for the third time, Su Huiqing’s voice finally sounded from inside.
Yu Qin carefully pushed open the door and saw a figure standing by the window. The window was open, and the sunlight shone through it. That person was wearing a black jacket and had their back facing her. From that back view, one could feel the cold aura on her body.
Yu Qin put down the things in her hand. “Miss Su, you are finally awake!”
Su Huiqing turned to look at Yu Qin. “Mmm, where’s Brother Yu?”
“I don’t know. He seems to have gone out.” Yu Qin finally heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile, “But fortunately, he went out. These few days, he scared us to death. He insisted on disbanding the guards. If he threw a tantrum, the elders couldn’t do anything to him. If you haven’t come back soon, people here will freeze to death.
“Oh, right, why didn’t Qu Yan and the rest go with you this time? I heard from the chief detective that you guys went to the Dugu Family together.” Yu Qin suddenly recalled this problem.
Su Huiqing sat on the chair. “Do you miss Qu Yan and the rest, or do you want to play Fight the Landlord with them?”
Upon hearing Su Huiqing’s words, Yu Qin immediately straightened her back. “Fight the Landlord. I am not that kind of person!”
Su Huiqing glanced at her but didn’t believe her. Su Huiqing just said, “Qu Yan and the rest will be here soon.”
Yu Qin’s eyes lit up.
Su Huiqing didn’t eat much and just went to the study room. Yu Shijin was not in the study room, but there was a white-bearded old man. He seemed to have heard a noise and slowly turned around.
She stopped in her tracks and narrowed her eyes. “It’s you?”
She knew this old man. She had met him several times before. He was a strange old man who wanted to tell her fortune.
Yu Shijin didn’t like him either, so how did this old man appear here? Su Huiqing took a step back, her eyes wary.
The old man took off the small gourd by his waist and sat on the chair to drink. He had white hair and a youthful face. He looked somewhat mysterious, but Su Huiqing was abnormally vigilant.
“Don’t be like this. Don’t you want to know where Yu Shijin went?” The old man glanced at Su Huiqing and smiled.
Su Huiqing’s hand was still on the door, but she calmed down. “You will tell me?”
“Of course.” The old man looked at Su Huiqing with his bright eyes. “He is probably not far from death now. Do you want to save him?”
“You think I will believe you?” Upon hearing the word ‘death’, Su Huiqing’s heart skipped a beat. However, her first reaction was that he was lying to her. According to Old Master Zhuge’s estimation, it was not time yet. She still had time to save him.
“It doesn’t matter if you believe me or not. I am just telling you what I know. This is not the first time you have died. More accurately, this is the ninth time you have died. Of course, you won’t remember, but you will remember your previous life, right? Do you know why you were reborn?” The old man looked at Su Huiqing with a complicated expression.
Su Huiqing was already shaken when she heard him mention ‘rebirth’.
“Because Yu Shijin tampered with it, but he tampered with it for a price. He had paid for it with something…” The old man shook his head. “Su Huiqing, if you want to save him, go back to the Yu Family and find that lamp. Then, go to the altar and put the lamp on.”
Su Huiqing paused and looked at him. “That’s it?”
“Not entirely.” The old man paused. “You will face a choice. Those two never got along. The Gong Family also looks for an altar. They want the world to break up and rebuild. Yu Shijin wants you to be reborn. Su Huiqing, you don’t have much time left.”
