"N-nothing." Qian Suisui gave a stiff smile. "I just came to see you. Since you're alright, I'll be going now."
Qian Suisui felt a huge sense of loss at this moment, and fearing that she would lose her composure, she quickly said goodbye.
Lin Jingge didn't try to stop her. Watching Qian Suisui's departing figure, she felt that Qian Suisui was acting strangely today.
If Qian Suisui really cared so much about her deception, her first reaction should have been to question her, not to turn around and run away like this. Qian Suisui's reaction really puzzled Lin Jingge.
Seeing Lin Jingge standing motionless at the door, Lin Shu stepped forward.
"Sister, Grandma just came looking for you." Lin Shu repeated Grandma Lin's words to Lin Jingge.
This reminded Lin Jingge of the agreement she had made with Granny Lin.
Once she had stepped out of the door, Lin Jingge remembered that her clothes were covered in blood and were tattered.
She quickly turned around and went back to her room, rummaging through her clothes.
After going behind the screen, she quickly changed her clothes, closed the door, and ran to the next room.
At this point, she was too lazy to disguise herself anymore. Anyway, Chu Wang had already discovered her, and now that Qian Suisui had seen her, it saved her the trouble of explaining.
Grandma Lin had heard Lin Jingge's footsteps quite early on.
If you embark on the path of spiritual cultivation, your five senses will also be enhanced as your spiritual power increases.
Grandma Lin put the needle and thread on the table and looked toward the door.
She didn't close the door and waited for Lin Jingge to arrive.
"Grandma!" Lin Jingge jumped across the threshold, walked quickly towards Grandma Lin, and then sat down in front of her.
Lin Jingge frowned slightly when she saw what was on the table.
"Grandma, it's so dark already, why are you still doing needlework?" Lin Jingge said with some disapproval.
You must know that the Qian family is not a place to keep idle people. In order to keep herself and her granddaughter in the Qian family, Granny Lin would exhaust all her energy every day just by taking care of the spiritual plants.
I was exhausted when I got back, but I still had the energy to do this delicate needlework.
"It's just for fun, not tiring at all." Grandma Lin smiled slightly, her wrinkles at the corners of her eyes deepening. "You haven't changed any of your clothes this year. It's almost early autumn, so Grandma wants to make you a new dress."
At this point, Grandma Lin's expression softened even more.
She took out the fabric, which was already mostly embroidered, from the basket and showed it to Lin Jingge as if it were a treasure.
"Look, I embroidered your favorite magnolia flower for you."
Lin Jingge quickly reached out and took the cloth handed to her by Granny Lin. The magnolia flowers embroidered on it were lifelike.
Overwhelmed with emotion, Lin Jingge's eyes welled up with tears, and she was unable to utter a single word, simply listening silently as Grandma Lin murmured beside her.
"We used to have a magnolia tree in front of our house," Grandma Lin said nostalgically. She planted it specifically because Lin Jingge liked it.
More than a decade has passed in the blink of an eye. Who would have thought that they would wander far from home and suddenly miss a tree?
Thinking of this, Granny Lin looked at Lin Jingge.
Only then did she notice something was wrong.
She couldn't even see Lin Jingge's cultivation level.
An idea welled up in her mind, and even her overflowing emotions were suppressed. She looked at Lin Jingge with burning eyes.
"Jiaojiao...you...you've broken through to become a Spirit Master?!" Granny Lin's voice trembled as she spoke, her sunken eyes widening in shock.
"Yes, that's exactly the good news I wanted to tell you."
"Good, good, good!" After confirming her thoughts, Granny Lin said "good" three times in a row, and even stood up excitedly, patting the table with her hand: "Our Lin family has hope!"
Speaking of this, Granny Lin sighed again: "If the pharmacopoeia were still here, you would be able to unlock the second chapter with your current cultivation level."
The words came out casually, and it wasn't until later that Grandma Lin realized what she had said. She quickly looked down at her granddaughter, afraid that the other woman would think that she was blaming her.
Grandma Lin is quite content with her current life, but as a member of the Lin family, she still harbors a glimmer of hope for the revitalization of the Lin family.
"That's not what I meant, Grandma..." Grandma Lin quickly explained.
Lin Jingge smiled and said, "Grandma, I'm fine, don't worry. One day, I will definitely get the pharmacopoeia back!"
"It doesn't necessarily have to be..."
"Grandma, you've forgotten, your granddaughter is a Spirit Master now too." Lin Jingge said, pretending to be serious.
Seeing this, Granny Lin decided not to continue.
All I could say was, "Do everything within your means, don't force yourself. Grandma doesn't need you to be strong, I just hope my little one can be safe and sound."
Even at times like this, the old woman didn't forget to care about her. Lin Jingge felt a pang of sadness, but more than anything, she felt a warm glow in her chest.
Neither of them spoke for a moment. Grandma Lin looked at Lin Jingge's face and belatedly asked her why she had taken off her disguise.
Lin Jingge explained the reason.
"Grandma, we won't need to disguise ourselves anymore." Lin Jingge took out a cream from her spatial storage that could remove the disguise from her face.
Disguise is insoluble in water, and day by day, it feels like there's an extra layer of skin on your face, which is very uncomfortable.
Now that her whereabouts have been exposed, she no longer needs to disguise herself.
While helping Granny Lin remove her makeup, Lin Jingge talked about her future plans: "Granny, I'm afraid we can't stay in Lingyun City any longer. Chu Wang will be coming soon."
Even though they are now protected by the Qian clan, what if Chu Wang comes up with something that will tempt Qian Zhong?
