Fang Qing sat up in a daze and called out to Xiao Dou a few more times, but still received no response.
A wave of panic washed over Fang Qing.
She is truly terrified now.
That's impossible.
Why did things have to come back to this point again? How heartbroken would Zhao Shi'an be if he knew?
What if he repeats the same mistakes he made in his previous life?
No, she must go back immediately.
The commotion outside continued. Fang Qing struggled to get out of bed, but overestimated her body and rolled off the bed.
The fall stunned Fang Qing. She lay on the ground, her mind a blur, and the scene before her eyes kept changing.
One moment it's the roof of the west house where Fangjia Village used to live, the next it's the bed curtains of a tea shop.
"Fang Qing".
Someone suddenly called her name.
Fang Qing felt a sharp pain in her body, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Zhao Wuxia.
Her heart settled back where it was.
"Did you have a nightmare?" Zhao Wuxia asked.
Fang Qing tried to speak but found her throat very sore, so she just nodded.
"The fever has gone down, take your medicine."
Zhao Wuxia helped Fang Qing up.
Fang Qing felt much better at this moment, took the medicine bowl from Zhao Wuxia, and drank the medicine.
It was already bright outside, and Fang Qing realized that she must have slept for a long time.
After a good night's sleep, Fang Qing felt much more relaxed.
After sitting up and taking her medicine, Zhao Wuxia didn't leave immediately, but just looked at her hesitantly, as if he wanted to say something.
"Does Aunt have something to say?"
Zhao Wuxia pursed her lips and tentatively asked, "Qing'er, have you ever had any extraordinary encounters?"
Fang Qing's brow twitched.
An unexpected encounter.
Was her rebirth into this world a stroke of luck?
Fang Qing hadn't even told Zhao Shi'an this secret yet, so naturally she wouldn't reveal it to Zhao Wuxia.
"Speaking of extraordinary encounters, I met a deity when I was very young."
"Is there nothing else?"
Fang Qing shook her head.
Zhao Wuxia's expression struggled again. She tentatively asked, "When I came in just now, your chest was glowing."
Fang Qing's eyelid twitched.
She had seen the scene of her chest glowing twice in her dream just now, once with Zhao Shi'an and once with Xiaodouya.
"Glowing light? You must be mistaken."
Zhao Wuxia shook her head, fidgeting with her fingers as if considering whether or not to speak her mind.
"As Shi'an's wife, there are some things I shouldn't hide from you. We have a treasure in our family that makes the chest of the person it chooses glow when it performs its function."
Fang Qing appeared calm, but she was actually very curious.
"This treasure has been passed down from our ancestors. It is said that an old wandering monk gave it to our ancestors to repay a meal in gratitude. This thing is a relic of a holy monk, a sacred object that can reverse the flow of time and the universe."
“Our Zhao family has always kept this secret, and each generation only selects one child to know it. However, due to my negligence, I inadvertently let Gao Wancheng know about this secret, which brought disaster upon our family.”
“Gao Wancheng imprisoned me in the temple not because he couldn’t let go of me, an old friend, but because he wanted to learn from me the secret of using the sacred object.”
“All sacred objects must recognize their owners. How can we ordinary mortals use them without permission? The only person I know who can summon sacred objects is Shih-an.”
When Zhao Wuxia mentioned this, Fang Qing immediately thought of something that Zhao Shi'an was determined to get back from Gao Wancheng.
Is this the relic that can reverse the course of fate?
"You're saying Zhao Shi'an can summon sacred objects?"
Fang Qing's tone was tinged with doubt.
If Zhao Shi'an could summon sacred objects, why would he have made his life so difficult in his previous life?
"You didn't know?" Zhao Wuxia looked at Fang Qing in surprise.
Then she chuckled softly.
“It seems Shi’an didn’t tell you anything. Have you forgotten what he said to me at my house last time? It was what confirmed that he had summoned the sacred object.”
Fang Qing also remembered the ambiguous words Zhao Shi'an and Zhao Wuxia had spoken that day.
Zhao Shi'an said he didn't want to go back to the past, and also said that everything he had now was something he had begged for.
Fang Qing's heart was pounding; once the idea formed, it quickly took over her mind.
Zhao Shi'an summoned a sacred object? How could that be? He had such a miserable childhood, how could he possibly want to go back...?
Suddenly, Fang Qing thought of the scene in her dream where Zhao Shi'an calmly accepted death, and the scene in the white dream where Zhao Shi'an's chest was glowing. She took a deep breath.
Could it be that this isn't a new world at all, but rather Zhao Shi'an has traveled back to the past...?
When was that?
It seems that not long after she was reborn into this world, she received a mission related to Zhao Shi'an.
The system claims to be a system for helping others, but in reality, all the tasks it assigns her are related to Zhao Shi'an.
Another thing that Fang Qing suddenly realized was that Zhao Shi'an, who was only seven years old at the time, had a villain value of one hundred.
Looking back now, it's possible that Zhao Shi'an returned to his seven-year-old self after his death, and then gradually changed his life.
Even without her, Zhao Shi'an would not have had the painful childhood he had in his previous life.
Thinking of this, Fang Qing broke out in a sweat.
And what about her?
Could her rebirth into this world also be related to Zhao Shi'an?
Fang Qing herself was unaware of how pale her face was.
Zhao Wuxia looked at Fang Qing and asked, "Are you alright?"
Fang Qing's gaze slowly fell on her face.
Why are you telling me all this?
Zhao Wuxia opened her mouth, her expression somewhat unnatural.
"You're not thinking of using Zhao Shi'an to go back in time, are you?"
Fang Qing's quick wit revealed Zhao Wuxia's thoughts, and she looked away.
"Go back to the past, and then what? Change your Zhao family, but do you know what price you have to pay to summon that so-called sacred object?"
Zhao Wuxia naturally had no idea.
"It is life."
Zhao Wuxia opened her eyes wide.
“Even if Zhao Shi’an agrees, I won’t agree. You’ve changed the Zhao family, but what about Zhao Shi’an? He might not even be born.”
Zhao Wuxia was about to say something when Fang Qing interrupted her.
"I'm a little tired and want to be by myself for a while."
Zhao Wuxia remained silent for a moment, then tidied up the dishes and left.
Fang Qing's mind is in a mess right now.
Her mind was filled with scenes of her time with Zhao Shi'an.
She was reborn into this world because Xiaodou learned about everything Zhao Shi'an had experienced.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Shi'an was also reborn.
So what is the meaning of her existence?
For a moment, she felt that the world was incredibly unreal.
She called out, "Little Bean."
She thought that Xiaodou wouldn't respond this time, just like last time, but after a moment of silence, a light screen appeared in front of Fang Qing. On the right side of the light screen was the soybean man with his mouth tightly shut, not daring to speak.
"explain."
