"Mm." Huo Yusen looked at the little girl who was smiling brightly at him with tender eyes. "Qiqi, you worked hard last night."
Qiqi shook her head, "It's not tiring at all, Brother Jiu, how are you feeling now?"
"Much better."
"That's good." Qiqi breathed a sigh of relief. "But Brother Jiu, I've cleared away most of the evil energy from your body, so why did it suddenly erupt and invade your meridians? Did anything unusual happen after you fell asleep last night?"
Huo Yusen thought for a moment, then shook his head. "Nothing special..." He paused, as if remembering something, and changed his words, "It's just that in the middle of the night, I suddenly felt a little cold. But it only lasted for a moment, and the feeling disappeared quickly. At the time, I thought it was just my imagination and didn't think much of it."
Qi Qi frowned; it seemed that the cover-up was caused by that momentary chill.
But she couldn't sense any traces of evil magic in the room. Unless the other evil cultivator's magic was much more profound than hers, it was impossible for her not to notice any trace at all.
This whole thing is eerie, just like the well that exuded demonic energy in her dream last night.
"Forget it, I'm not going to think about it anymore." Qiqi wasn't going to dwell on things she couldn't understand. "Let's get up and have breakfast!"
She had used up a lot of energy last night, and her stomach was growling with hunger.
Qiqi went back to her room to wash up, change clothes, and then finished her morning class.
When I went downstairs, breakfast was already prepared.
After breakfast, the Ji family unexpectedly welcomed a guest.
"Grandma, what brings you here?" The person who came was Huo Yusen's grandmother, the old lady of the Huo family.
Madam Huo looked to be around the same age as Madam Ji, about eighty years old. She was wearing a dark green cheongsam, her medium-length hair was styled in an elegant updo, and she wore a pearl necklace. She was a very elegant and graceful old lady.
"What, can't I come?" Ji Chengfeng respectfully welcomed her into the living room and sat her down. Her bright eyes couldn't help but look around. "Where's Xiao Qiqi? I can't see her."
She came here specifically to see the little girl who saved her grandson and then her grandson.
The young girl had been kind to the Huo family, and she had prepared some gifts to express her gratitude, which she wanted to personally deliver to the girl.
They couldn't possibly accept the fact that the young girl had helped them so much without them showing any appreciation.
"Qiqi should be doing her morning practice at this time." The maid brought in tea, which Madam Ji took with both hands and handed to Grandma Huo, explaining softly, "This child said that her master stipulated that she must practice morning and evening. It's really admirable that this child is so self-disciplined at only three years old. I wonder what brings Grandma Huo to see Qiqi?"
When talking about her youngest daughter, Madam Ji's tone was filled with an indescribable pride.
There is no child in the world more obedient than her youngest daughter!
How lucky she is to have met such a well-behaved baby like Qiqi.
Madam Huo smiled warmly, "It's nothing, I just wanted to come and see the little girl. Qiqi has been helping our Xiao Jiu with acupuncture and treating her legs, so as her grandmother, I should come and express my gratitude."
After Madam Huo finished speaking, she clapped her hands, and immediately a row of bodyguards came in, each carrying large and small bags.
When Qiqi came down from her morning class, she saw this scene and was stunned.
Madam Ji was the first to see her and quickly called out, "Qi Bao, come here quickly, your Grandma Huo is here."
Grandma Huo?
Is Xiao Jiu's grandma?
Qiqi turned her gaze and saw the elegant old lady sitting on the sofa.
She immediately ran over and greeted everyone with a sweet, soft voice, "Hello, Grandma Huo!"
"Oh my, this is little Qiqi! What a well-behaved and adorable child!" Old Madam Huo looked at the snow-white and cute little glutinous rice ball in front of her, her eyes crinkling with laughter. She scooped the little glutinous rice ball up and hugged it tightly. "Qiqi, thank you for treating your little brother Jiu's leg."
"Grandma Huo, you're too kind. It's no trouble at all." Qiqi nestled obediently in Madam Huo's arms, letting her hug and kiss her.
Grandma Huo felt the little girl in her arms was soft and sweet, with a milky fragrance, and she couldn't get enough of holding her. "Oh my, this child, how sensible she is! Although you said it wasn't hard work, Grandma Huo still wanted to give you something to express her gratitude."
Madam Huo beckoned, and the bodyguards immediately stepped forward.
From left to right, the boxes in their hands contain bank cards, a box of property deeds, a box of heirloom-quality jewelry, a box of documents...
"These are all for you." Old Madam Huo smiled, looking very wealthy. "How about it? Do you like them? If you don't, I'll call right now and have someone prepare something new."
There are so many different kinds of things, and Qiqi doesn't understand many of them.
She stared in astonishment, and said in a childish voice, "Grandma Huo, isn't this... too much?"
"Not much, not much," Old Madam Huo waved her hand. "Before, Xiao Jiu was the only son of our Huo family. You saved him, which was equivalent to saving the future of our entire Huo family. Now you have also saved Xiao Jiu's older brother, which makes you an even greater benefactor to our Huo family. This reward is nothing. I wish I could give you the best things in the world."
Oh my gosh, I must say, Xiao Qiqi's little face is so delicate and beautiful, like a chubby little dumpling, so cute and pretty.
The little guy and his grandson seem to be a good match!
Why not take this opportunity to arrange a marriage between our children?
This little girl is so lovely and popular, we have to make a move first!
Don't turn back and let someone kidnap you again!
Yes, we need to make a proper plan.
While Old Madam Huo was rapidly calculating on her abacus, Madam Ji's gaze swept over the thank-you gift held by the bodyguard. Even though the Ji family was now the richest family in Jiangcheng, she was still somewhat surprised by Old Madam Huo's generosity!
"No, Madam Huo, you've given us far too much!" If she wasn't mistaken, that box of documents was probably a share transfer agreement or some kind of asset change document.
These things are so valuable that we simply cannot accept them.
"A doctor's heart is benevolent. Qi Bao saved Xiao Jiu because she and Xiao Jiu are destined to be together, not for anything else." Madam Ji pointed to the gifts in the hands of the bodyguards, "Please take these back, Madam Huo."
"Yes, yes, Grandma Huo, Qiqi likes Brother Xiao Jiu and is willing to treat his legs. Qiqi doesn't want any reward!" Qiqi blinked her big, dark eyes, looking innocent and naive.
Upon hearing this, Old Madam Huo almost burst out laughing.
"Oh dear, Qiqi likes our Xiao Jiu?" Old Madam Huo felt her smile was harder to suppress than an AK. "Then Qiqi, would you like to be with our Xiao Jiu forever?"
