Meanwhile, Ye Mohan had already carried Jian Yixue downstairs.
Upon reaching the car, Ye Mohan opened the door with one hand, carefully lifted Jian Yixue from his arms into the passenger seat, and meticulously fastened her seatbelt.
Jian Yixue's face was flushed the whole time. When Ye Mohan bent down to fasten her seatbelt, the man's breath brushed against her neck, sending a shiver down her spine and making her feel dizzy and confused. In the end, even her breathing became disordered.
Her shyness became even more pronounced.
When Ye Mohan noticed Jian Yixue's unusual behavior, he couldn't help but smile slightly.
Before leaving, he kissed Jane Yixue's cheek.
The sudden action made Jian Yixue catch her breath and blush.
Upon seeing this, Ye Mohan's smile deepened.
Seeing that Jian Yixue was already extremely shy, he didn't dare to use too much force, for fear of scaring her.
He then patted Jian Yixue's head, got up and left, closing the car door for her.
Jian Yixue watched his figure as he walked to the front of the car, took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it. Puffs of white smoke enveloped him, giving him an air of mystery from afar.
Jian Yixue stared at Ye Mohan ahead, unable to look away for a long time, her soul almost being stolen away.
After a long while, Ye Mohan stubbed out his cigarette and waited for the wind to dissipate the smell from his body. At that moment, Lin Yi also rushed over without stopping.
After Ye Mohan handed him the keys, he sat in the back seat. As soon as he got in the car, Jian Yixue smelled a faint tobacco scent mixed with the fragrance of pine on him.
"Sorry to keep you waiting," Ye Mohan said softly, glancing at Jian Yixue.
Jian Yixue shook her head and grinned, "No, I just admired a particularly beautiful painting."
Ye Mohan glanced at Jian Yixue, and seeing her expression, he understood her meaning. He smiled faintly and said nothing.
In a dark alley not far from [Nightfall], the lynx that had been thrown out earlier was now enjoying the passionate lovemaking that it had previously longed for but could not have.
It was nearly midnight when we got back to the villa.
At the bedroom door, Ye Mohan and Jian Yixue said goodnight to each other.
"Get some rest early; staying up late is bad for your skin."
Jian Yixue chuckled, never expecting that Ye Mohan, usually a workaholic, would have this side to him.
"And you?"
Ye Mohan patted Jian Yixue's head: "I still have some work to do, you should get some rest."
Jian Yixue nodded obediently and went into the bedroom.
Upon seeing this, Ye Mohan headed towards the study.
Back in her bedroom, Jian Yixue plopped down on the sofa and rubbed her tired head. In her past life, she had a very low alcohol tolerance, but for some reason, she was fine today except for feeling a little tired.
"Master, Master, it's all thanks to me! That wine was delicious, I want more!"
A voice that didn't belong to her rang in Jian Yixue's mind, startling her so much that she sat up abruptly from the sofa and looked around.
Who is it?
Jian Yixue looked around warily. If she didn't have a strong heart, she would have been scared to death in the middle of the night.
"Master, it's my adorable baby! Put your hand on the jade pendant around your neck, close your eyes and you'll see me!" A warm and sweet voice rang out.
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue hesitated.
The voice in my mind rang out again: "Master, I would never harm you. In my previous life, I saw you being strangled to death as soon as I woke up. I used all my energy to throw you into the time tunnel, which led to our meeting today."
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue frowned, realizing that her rebirth was not a coincidence.
Then, following the baby's advice, she closed her eyes and placed her hand on the jade pendant in front of her chest.
"Master, you can open your eyes now."
When Jian Yixue opened her eyes, she was shocked by what she saw.
The azure sky was clear and boundless, like a painting.
A gentle breeze blows, and an endless green meadow stretches out before you. A cobblestone path leads to a magnificent three-story palace on the right.
Golden sunlight shone on the eaves of the palace, reflecting a magnificent light that was dazzling and splendid.
The palace with its red bricks and yellow tiles stands calmly and serenely in the gentle breeze.
Above the bright red lacquered gate hangs a black plaque made of golden nanmu wood, on which are inscribed three large characters: "Muxue Pavilion" in a flowing, elegant style.
A clear spring gushed forth not far away, flowing around the palace and finally into a lake not far from it.
The lake water is crystal clear, and the blue sky and white clouds are reflected on the surface, like a colored landscape painting.
A peach orchard full of blooming peach blossoms beside the lake is particularly beautiful, and everything in front of you is like a paradise.
Jian Yixue was puzzled.
Wasn't I just in the room a moment ago?
How did I end up here in the blink of an eye? What happened?
"Master, Master, look down."
Hearing the sound, Jian Yixue looked down at the ground and saw a snow-white rabbit staring at her from the grass.
Her beautiful brows furrowed, and she asked in confusion, "Are you talking to me, little one?"
The rabbit on the ground nodded and said happily, "It's me, Master. I've finally met you."
Jian Yixue's puzzled expression remained unchanged. She squatted down, picked up the adorable baby on the ground, and stroked its fur.
After a long pause, he asked, "What's going on?"
As the adorable baby enjoyed Jian Yixue's grooming, it said, "Master, I have some memory loss."
“Tell me what you know,” Jane said.
She was eager to know what was going on.
The little one nodded and began to recount what he knew.
Jian Yixue then realized that this was a space inside the jade pendant. The baby had been here since birth. It could control everything in the space just like its owner. When there was no owner, it would fall into a deep sleep and could only wake up when the next owner appeared.
She was able to enter because in her past life she was kidnapped and killed by Jian Jiaojiao. Her blood accidentally dripped onto the jade pendant, which awakened the adorable baby and saved her life.
Jian Yixue fell into deep thought. How could this be so fantastical? Is there really a time tunnel?
"Sweetie, can you open a time tunnel at will?"
The baby shook its head: "No, it will consume most of the baby's energy every time it is activated, and it usually takes hundreds of years to recover the energy. It is completely useless to the master."
Jian Yixue nodded after hearing this; she had only asked casually.
“Master, you can go inside the palace and take a look. There are things left behind by the previous masters there.”
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue, carrying her adorable baby, followed the path to the entrance of the hall. The three large characters "Muxue Pavilion" on the plaque made her feel especially close to them.
She pushed open the door and went inside. Inside the room were several large bookshelves, filled with rows of antique-style books with blue covers.
She walked to an old-fashioned desk not far away and saw a letter on the desk that looked very old.
