(Era Setting, Marriage Substitution, First Marriage Then Love, Ruthless Against Villains) After a car accident, Xia Yuhuan wakes up and realizes she has transmigrated into a novel set in the 1970s....
Chapter 59 If he weren't her father, what else could he rely on to cause trouble?
Zhang Xianya had just come out of the kitchen when she saw Xia Yuhuan and He Xiaojie interacting.
Not wanting to disturb them, she didn't go forward.
“Xiao Jie’s physical condition is fine. His inability to speak is psychological. We need to find someone who specializes in this to examine him. Are there any specialized psychologists in China right now?” Xia Yuhuan asked.
“A psychologist? Never heard of that.” Zhang Xianya shook her head slightly upon hearing this.
Although Xia Yuhuan had already guessed that this was the case, she still felt somewhat disappointed when she actually faced it.
"I'll ask around later," Zhang Xianya said again.
Xia Yuhuan replied, "Okay, then when you inquire, be a little careful, in case someone uses this to make a fuss."
These days, everyone is on edge, and a single word can be a deadly weapon. Especially since psychologists are now only found abroad, Xia Yuhuan didn't want to cause trouble for Zhang Xianya.
"Okay, I understand." Zhang Xianya nodded gently.
Chi Shaokang returned when they were halfway through their meal.
Zhang Xianya was somewhat surprised to see him return.
"Didn't you say you weren't coming back for dinner? Why are you back at this hour? Have you eaten yet?"
"Not yet, I'll go wash my hands and get the bowls and chopsticks," Chi Shaokang said, going to the kitchen to get the bowls and chopsticks himself.
As he sat down, he brought some bad news.
"Xiao Huan, the Xia family said they wanted to come see you, but I turned them away. However, they will definitely come to visit you in person tomorrow."
“Xia Jianyong is, after all, your biological father, so I can’t interfere too much,” Chi Shaokang said.
He felt somewhat aggrieved.
Hmph, if only he were Xia Yuhuan's biological father, then Xia Jianyong, that disgusting bastard, wouldn't have a chance.
But if Xia Yuhuan is his biological daughter, then his son won't have a wife.
Thinking about it this way, Chi Shaokang felt that things were pretty good as they were.
"What does he want to see me for?" Xia Yuhuan was puzzled at first, but then she realized what he meant.
"It's Gangzi who got caught and confessed that Xia Zhuyu was the mastermind. Xia Jianyong and the others are afraid that even though you're so far away, you'll still hold her accountable, so they want me to help them plead for her?"
Chi Shaokang was very satisfied with Xia Yuhuan's quick reaction.
His wife is indeed a clever one.
Unfortunately, her biological father was a real pain.
“That’s right, Gangzi has been caught. He confessed to being Xia Zhuyu’s mastermind. Xia Jianyong got the news and came to me to plead for leniency, but I refused. Then he said he wanted to see you.”
“You were just seriously injured, how could I let him bother you? I refused him outright.”
“But you’re resting at home now. If he comes to our door tomorrow, I won’t be able to stop him,” Chi Shaokang said, frowning.
Not to mention that he has to go to work and can't stay at home all the time.
Even if he's at home, it's not appropriate for his in-laws to come over and turn them away.
After all, the two sides haven't completely fallen out yet, so what would it mean to turn them away?
"Okay, I understand. Dad, don't worry, I know what I'm doing," Xia Yuhuan said with a smile.
Xia Jianyong is just taking advantage of the fact that she is his biological daughter and he is her biological father to cause trouble.
If he is no longer one, what will he have to rely on?
Last time, she used the marriage to the Chi family as an excuse to leave the Xia family and come to the Chi family, thus getting rid of the Xia family.
Now, she wants to use the Chi family's influence and Xia Zhuyu's crimes to completely sever ties with Xia Jianyong.
Xia Yuhuan quickly formed a plan in her mind.
Chi Shaokang and Zhang Xianya had no idea that while Xia Yuhuan was all smiles, she had already put the matter of severing ties with Xia Jianyong on her agenda.
They were still worried about Xia Yuhuan's health and kept urging her to eat more and replenish her body.
Xia Yuhuan, of course, ate her food obediently.
Although her parents were very enthusiastic, she remembered to control her portion size and didn't overeat.
After dinner, Xia Yuhuan rested for a while before Zhang Xianya helped her back to her room.
Zhang Xianya personally watched over Xia Yuhuan as she finished washing up, helped her lie down on the bed, and watched her close her eyes to rest before leaving the room.
After Zhang Xianya left, Xia Yuhuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Emma, Mom is too enthusiastic, even she can't quite handle it.
Overall, however, she still really enjoys the feeling of being cherished as family.
Xia Yuhuan chuckled for a while, then glanced at Chi Yanzhou beside her.
Although Chi Yanzhou was unconscious, Xia Yuhuan didn't dare to share a bed with him and blatantly entered the space right in front of him.
She thought for a moment and tried to enter the space with her consciousness.
Surprisingly, it actually worked!
When Xia Yuhuan appeared in the space, he was still somewhat incredulous.
She looked down and saw that her body was semi-transparent.
Consciousness entering space is clearly limited.
Moreover, after her consciousness entered the space, she could clearly feel her external body and 'see' the surrounding environment and situation by lying on her external body.
He just couldn't move, as if he were asleep.
This discovery surprised Xia Yuhuan.
But mostly, I felt joy.
That would be wonderful if consciousness could enter space independently.
Sometimes when she enters the space, she doesn't have to worry about being discovered. Even if someone sees her, they'll just assume she's sleeping.
Xia Yuhuan thought for a moment and began to try moving around in the space.
She discovered that entering space with consciousness has greater limitations than the body entering space directly.
It's more difficult and tiring to do anything now.
The mental exertion is significantly greater than the physical exertion of entering the space directly.
Xia Yuhuan decided not to do anything else after thinking about it.
Her body was already injured, and she needed to rest and recuperate properly. It would not be wise to expend too much mental energy.
After Xia Yuhuan finished her simple experiment, she planned to leave.
However, just as she was about to leave the space, she suddenly realized something.
"Something's not right," Xia Yuhuan muttered, frowning.
Her gaze swept around, finally settling on the dilapidated house she had previously looked down upon.
At that time, the dilapidated house was just a few planks of wood, with a thatched roof, and looked extremely shabby.
That dilapidated wooden house looked like it was about to collapse.
Xia Yuhuan had previously thought that she would find a way to demolish the dilapidated house and rebuild a new one herself.
Unexpectedly, before she could even take any action, the house began to change on its own.
Xia Yuhuan was extremely shocked.
She rubbed her eyes, trying to make sure she wasn't seeing things.
However, even when she rubbed her eyes while she was conscious, she felt nothing at all.
All she knew was that after rubbing her eyes, the house in front of her hadn't changed at all.
The dilapidated wooden house, which was originally in a state of disrepair and could collapse at any moment, has been transformed into a complete wooden house. Even the thatched roof has been replaced with wooden planks, and a layer of tiles has been placed on top. It is no longer broken, dilapidated, or old!
Xia Yuhuan was stunned.
She couldn't believe it: Could it be that the house in this space could upgrade itself?
