Su Xiaoxiao and Su Xiaoxiao died on the same day, but the former was lucky enough to take over the latter's body and survive.

So, the unusual reaction he saw from Su Xiaoxiao just now made it seem like Su Xiaoxiao had returned!

The atmosphere in the bedroom instantly became heavy, and the three of them stared at the person on the bed with grim expressions.

Time passed second by second, and the sky gradually brightened.

The three people in the bedroom didn't dare close their eyes even once. Nangong Yi kept calling Su Xiaoxiao's name, repeatedly telling her, "Don't be afraid..."

"Knock knock knock—"

As soon as it was light, the old butler informed Nangong Cang about Su Xiaoxiao's accident.

The old man rushed over anxiously, and when he heard that Huangfu Junhao and Shan Jiaxi were in the bedroom but hadn't taken Su Xiaoxiao to the hospital, his worry became even more evident.

"Yi'er, it's me!"

"Grandpa Nangong, what brings you here?"

After opening the door to let Nangong Cang into the bedroom, Huangfu Junhao gestured for Shan Jinxi and him to go downstairs for the time being.

After all, the matter was too bizarre, and they were afraid of frightening the elderly.

Nangong Cang walked into the bedroom with a serious expression. When he saw Su Xiaoxiao lying on the bed with a pale face, he was startled with unease.

"Grandpa, Xiaoxiao is just feeling a little unwell..."

"Where is Xiaoxiao's jade bracelet?"

After glancing at Su Xiaoxiao, Nangong Cang noticed that the bracelet he had given her earlier was not on her wrist, and an ominous premonition suddenly rose in his heart.

Nangong Yi only has Su Xiaoxiao in his heart now and doesn't care about the bracelet at all.

"Grandpa, you should go back first, this place..."

"You brat, where's that little bracelet? It's the one that saved her life!"

Nangong Cang originally didn't want to tell Nangong Yi so soon, but since it had already happened, he had no choice but to reveal the secret.

After Nangong Yi took the bracelet out of the drawer, he immediately asked him to put it on Su Xiaoxiao and reminded her that she was never allowed to take it off again.

Although Nangong Yi didn't understand what it meant, his grandfather had always believed in fate and the supernatural. Following his grandfather's instructions, he quickly put the bracelet on Su Xiaoxiao's wrist.

After a short while, Su Xiaoxiao's breathing gradually returned to normal.

Ten minutes later, color gradually returned to her face.

Nangong Yi turned back to look at her grandfather in disbelief, her eyes filled with excitement and deep confusion.

"Grandpa, you knew all along?"

“Xiao Xiao is fine now. Leave her here to the housekeeper and the others. You come back to the main house with me.”

After Nangong Cang finished speaking, he left the bedroom, but Nangong Yi did not follow him out. He just stood motionless by the bed, watching Su Xiaoxiao cautiously.

"Yi'er, I swear on my life that Xiao Xiao is indeed alright, but she just needs a little more time. You can rest assured and come with me."

"Grandpa, can I wait until Xiaoxiao wakes up before going back with you?"

“Have I ever lied to you since you were little? Little Xiao Xiao hasn’t woken up yet, but you don’t need to worry.”

"All right."

Nangong Yi agreed somewhat reluctantly. After covering Su Xiaoxiao with the blanket, he whispered in her ear, "I'll be back soon," and then quickly followed his grandfather downstairs.

Huangfu Junhao and Shan Jiaxi, who were having breakfast downstairs, quickly put down their bowls and chopsticks and went over when they saw the grandfather and grandson coming downstairs.

"Junhao, Jiaxi, I have something to do and need to go back to the main house with Grandpa. Xiaoxiao is fine now, but I'd like to trouble you to take care of her for me."

Although Huangfu Junhao and Shan Jiaxi were very puzzled, they nodded seriously and went upstairs into the bedroom again after the grandfather and grandson left.
