Chapter 432 I'm Not Hu Xiner
Seeing that Hu Xiner's face was not right and the Lu family members kept asking questions, Yin Li couldn't help but frown.
He stood in front of Hu Xin'er and scolded her unhappily, "Are you guys done yet?"
Seeing him being overly concerned about Hu Xin'er, and remembering how he had just taken advantage of everyone's sleep to steal the Lu family's girlfriend, Jiang Yao felt a little uncomfortable, and her face showed impatience: "We in the Lu family are discussing important matters, so Pavilion Master Yin will not bother you. Please leave first!"
Seeing that she was being disliked, Yin Li simply sat down on the edge of the bed and asked, "What's the important matter? Let the Pavilion Master hear it too."
Seeing that he had no intention of avoiding suspicion, Jiang Yao became even more angry and was about to quarrel with him.
Mu Qing shook his head slightly at her, indicating that there was no need to waste time talking to Yin Li.
"A soul from another world..." He murmured these four words, his five fingers tightened unconsciously, and worry flashed between his brows.
He had seen records about souls from other worlds in ancient books.
But looking at his wife in his arms, he couldn't imagine that the person who had already entered his heart was actually a ghost from another world.
If the guess is true, when did a new person appear in this familiar body?
When did the kind and weak girl who grew up in the Hu family become confident and generous, and suddenly possess all kinds of skills?
When was it that made him unable to help but look at her with admiration, from repaying the life-saving grace to uncontrollably giving her more and more attention, until he completely fell for her?
His expression was so complicated, how could Hu Xiner not feel it?
The gazes of the crowd left her with nowhere to hide. She wanted to hide in her husband's arms, but she felt that the arms had become so stiff and unfamiliar.
Every trace of doubt in the Lu family's eyes turned into sharp thorns, piercing her heart.
She was having a fever and her head was already dizzy, so she couldn't utter a word of rebuttal at this moment.
Making excuses might be enough to fool Jiang Yao and the others, but what about Mu Qing? He had lived with her since Shuangxi Village and knew Hu Xin'er very well.
She still remembered that when she first crossed over, this man had transformed into a cold-faced killer because of his identity, and he would hold the cold dagger across her neck again and again.
If his identity is revealed, how should Mu Qing face her? Will he choose to kill himself, the ghost who took away the body of his savior?
As time went by, Hu Xiner's silence made everyone feel gloomy.
Soul from another world, the literal meaning of these four words is enough to explain everything.
But after figuring out these four words, the Zen room fell into silence, and no one dared to expose the terrible truth.
Jiang Yao spoke first: "Xin'er, why aren't you talking? Are you really a ghost?"
Ghost? Hu Xin'er woke up from her despair and heard these words. Not only did she twitch the corners of her mouth in self-mockery, but her smile was uglier than crying.
Yes, in this day and age, isn’t her situation just a case of reincarnation?
As her heart was agitated, the baby in her belly seemed to sense her uneasy mood and started kicking hard.
In pain and fear, cold sweat oozed from Hu Xiner's forehead.
Jiang Yao noticed her behavior and understood.
She opened her mouth to ask further questions, but was interrupted impatiently by Yin Li.
"Ghost? I'm actually a demon!" Yin Li's eyes were so sharp that even Jiang Yao avoided his gaze temporarily.
He looked at Hu Xin'er, sweat dripping from her face, and couldn't help but angrily said, "The monk said it was because of Hu Xin'er that we were able to hide in the temple and escape the prince's pursuit! Does her origin matter? Why are you so persistent in asking?"
Jiang Yao retorted, "When did we force her?"
Yin Li glared at her: "Are you blind? Can't you see that she's about to have another miscarriage? You've given birth yourself, too, so why don't you know how to be considerate of pregnant women?"
Jiang Yao felt guilty when she saw that Hu Xin'er was clearly in pain but biting her lips tightly without making a sound.
She admitted that she was a little careless and was able to escape death.
If she were to ask herself, if she were in Hu Xiner's situation, she might not be able to do better than Hu Xiner.
Yin Li turned around and saw Mu Qing looking distracted.
"What are you daydreaming about?" His tone was extremely dangerous. "Hu Xin'er is your wife, and you're just going to watch others bully her like this? Are you going to ruin the medicine I worked so hard to make?"
Hu Xin'er called out softly, "Yin Li!"
This one sound had already consumed all her strength, and her words were filled with dissuasion.
If Yin Li stood up for her, it would only intensify the conflict between him and the Lu family.
What's more, she was the one who made the mistake first...
Mu Qing hugged Hu Xin'er tightly and said with some difficulty: "The original Hu Xin'er saved my life."
"So you want to avenge your savior?" Yin Li turned around, and angrily pulled out the fan from her waist and hit Mu Qing hard on the head.
Mu Qing was so immersed in his own thoughts that he didn't even notice that he was hit.
Yin Li pointed at his nose and cursed, "Are you sick? Being able to marry Hu Xin'er is a blessing earned in three lifetimes. Apart from her, who else would be so foolish as to suffer with you?!"
Jiang Yao couldn't stand it any longer: "Master Yin, I'm afraid it's not your turn to tell us how the Lu family should behave, is it?"
"I, the Pavilion Master, will take care of this trivial matter today!" Yin Li didn't even look at her, but instead said a swear word to Mu Qing.
His spit was almost splashing on Mu Qing's face. "I don't know what the story is between you and the previous Hu Xin'er. Anyway, from the first day I saw the current Hu Xin'er, she has not changed. There is absolutely no possibility that her soul has been replaced by someone else."
Mu Qing was treated like this by him, and for once he did not refute, but his expression became more complicated.
Hu Xin'er said softly: "That's enough, Yin Li."
Yin Li rarely got the chance to curse someone with a clear conscience, and she hadn't cursed enough yet, but seeing her haggard appearance, she shut her mouth obediently.
Hu Xin'er's eyes were tired, and she said with some difficulty: "That's right, I'm not the original Hu Xin'er."
"What?" Although everyone had guessed it in their hearts, they couldn't help but be shocked when they learned the answer, and there seemed to be something else in their eyes when they looked at Hu Xin'er.
They had just been through life and death, so they didn't feel much aversion to Hu Xin'er at this moment.
But precisely because there had been such pure and sincere emotions before, the slight surprise, inquiry and even suspicion in their eyes now was even more unbearable.
Mu Qing couldn't help but hold Hu Xiner's hand tightly, and her face became even paler because of the pain.
