“Master, Bai Wanxi’s remnant consciousness in Xu Ye’s body is incomplete, which is why she doesn’t even remember her own name. Moreover, Xu Ye’s body still belongs to him, after all. Bai Wanxi can’t have complete control over Xu Ye’s body even if she has temporarily occupied the dominant position,” the little heart explained.
“In other words, we’re not looking at Xu Ye now, but Bai Wanxi?” Beitang Lie stuck his head in curiously.
“Ah—! Pervert!” Xu Ye wrapped the blanket around his body even more tightly and threw a pillow over.
Quan Jue calmly tilted his head to avoid it, causing the pillow to fly past and smash into Beitang Lie’s face.
“Ouch!” Beitang Lie was hit in the face and fell heavily to the ground.
“Jiaojiao, what should we do? Will Xu Ye never wake up?” Pei Yao helped him up, her eyes filled with worry.
“Probably not. Bai Wanxi is already dead. Xu Ye’s body doesn’t belong to her no matter how powerful her remnant consciousness is. She can’t dominate Xu Ye forever,” Quan Jue said.
“Bai Wanxi has been sleeping all this while. She must have suddenly woken up. She will go back to sleep when her strength is exhausted. Xu Ye’s consciousness will return then. We have to think of a way to comfort her first. You guys go out. I’ll deal with her,” Chi Jiao said after taking a deep breath.
Pei Yao was the first to object. “No way! Jiaojiao, don’t be fooled by her. Have you forgotten? She’s She Qi’s wife!”
Chi Jiao shook her head. She kept looking at Bai Wanxi with a complicated glint in her eyes, but her tone was especially firm. “No, she’s different from She Qi.”
“Jiaojiao, stop talking nonsense. You don’t even know her. How do you know that she won’t harm you? You’re playing with your own life! Mr. Quan Jue, say something.” Pei Yao couldn’t bear to see Chi Jiao act recklessly, and she hoped that Quan Jue would help persuade her.
“Brother Quan, believe me. I know what I’m doing. I won’t do anything rash.” Chi Jiao looked at Xu Ye… no… at Bai Wanxi.
Chi Jiao was not afraid at all when she realized that the person in front of her was not Xu Ye but Bai Wanxi. Not only that, but she also felt inexplicably happy.
Chi Jiao looked forward to seeing Bai Wanxi. She gazed at her as if she was something she had lost a long time ago and had just regained.
Chi Jiao’s heart was filled with joy. She couldn’t help feeling happy to see Bai Wanxi.
And a voice in her heart kept telling her that Bai Wanxi would never hurt her.
She could understand why Pei Yao was worried about her, but Chi Jiao knew very well that Quan Jue would understand her even if others didn’t!
Quan Jue raised his hand and gently touched her long hair upon seeing her burning gaze. “We’ll be outside. Call us if you need anything.”
“Alright.” Chi Jiao smiled sweetly as she watched them leave the room.
She then closed the door and turned on the lights.
Bai Wanxi was still curled up under the blanket when she suddenly saw that the room was bright. She muttered in surprise, “Is it dawn?”
