"Wanwan, do you think that brat will come back? Is it true?"
Is it true?
Maybe.
Ultimately, Wan Jiao herself didn't know either.
However, facing the old man's eager and expectant gaze, Wan Jiao chose to say something positive: "Ye Jin sacrificed himself for the country, dying a heroic death. I've calculated his fate; he wasn't meant to die. No one can predict the future, but Grandpa, I believe he will come back."
Old Master Ye knew at least seven or eight tenths of Wan Jiao's abilities.
Since she said that, there's a high probability that there really is a chance.
He wept with joy, “Wanwan, don’t worry, just do what you need to do. This old man will take good care of himself and wait for that brat to come back and for my great-grandson to be born.”
Wan Jiao left after Old Master Ye had gone to sleep.
As she walked through the courtyard of the old house, she set up special magic arrays around her to prevent any accidents from happening.
Before leaving the old house, she repeatedly instructed the old housekeeper, "Don't let anyone in before I come back."
The old butler's eyes widened in shock, his expression one of utter horror as he looked at Wan Jiao. "Young Madam, you mean..."
"Shh~" Wan Jiao made a gesture, glancing at the outside of the old house's courtyard wall. "Just do as I say."
"Yes, young mistress!"
…
After returning from the old house, Wan Jiao contacted Amber and briefly explained that she needed to leave the capital city for a while. Upon hearing this, Amber immediately asked, "Wan, where are you going? When are you coming back?"
Wan Jiao is going to Kunlun, but she can't tell Amber, much less anyone else.
She pursed her lips, glanced at Xiao Lejin's fair and delicate face, and said, "Director An, I'm taking my Xiaojin out for a vacation."
Xiao Lejin Amber knows.
He hesitated for a long time on the other end of the phone before finally sighing, "Xiao Wan, please come back as soon as possible. Strange things have been happening lately, I'm worried..."
The security bureau stopped there.
Wan Jiao squeezed Xiao Lejin's little hand tightly and answered An Bo seriously, "Director An, I understand."
Amber: "OK, then have fun."
Wan Jiao: "Mm."
Immediately after hanging up the phone, he took Xiao Lejin and embarked on the journey to Kunlun Mountain.
…
Before reaching the Kunlun Mountains, Wan Jiao could still use teleportation talismans to travel with Xiao Le Jin, but once they reached the Kunlun Mountains, the teleportation talismans were no longer useful, and they could only travel on foot.
Wan Jiao held Xiao Le Jin's hand and walked for several hours before finally reaching the foot of Kunlun Mountain. In the distance, they spotted a figure.
Little Lejin blinked. "Mommy, who is that?"
Wan Jiao didn't recognize the man in the suit at first glance. It wasn't until the man turned around, looked at her and Xiao Lejin and smiled that she twitched her lips and asked in a very unpleasant tone, "Li Wen? What are you doing here?"
Li Wen glanced at Xiao Lejin, whom Wan Jiao was holding, and smiled gently. "According to seniority, you should call me that..."
Before Li Wen could finish speaking, Wan Jiao pulled Xiao Lejin behind her, staring at him warily, "Are you here to stop me?"
"You're overthinking it." Li Wen pulled out a family bucket from somewhere and handed it to Xiao Lejin in a flattering manner. "This is delicious. Children in the human world love it. Why don't you try it?"
The aroma of fried chicken is truly enticing.
Little Le Jin swallowed twice, then blinked her big, dark eyes and asked Wan Jiao, "Mother, can I eat this?"
We mean, when your precious daughter is so cute and adorable, asking if you can eat something in such a soft and sweet way, who could bear to refuse?
Wan Jiao smiled indulgently, took the family bucket from Li Wen's hand, and stuffed it into Xiao Lejin's arms. "Xiao Jin, you eat slowly. Me and this..."
Wan Jiao hesitated for a moment, her gaze lingering on Li Wen's face for about three to five seconds before she finally said, "This uncle has something to discuss."
"Okay, Mommy, I'll wait for you obediently." After saying that, Xiao Lejin waved her hand and a small chair appeared. She sat down and started fighting with the family bucket.
Wan Jiao immediately erected a barrier, separating her and Li Wen from Xiao Le Jin outside.
Li Wen narrowed his eyes, "Ling'er, you..."
"My name is Wan Jiao," Wan Jiao interrupted Li Wen, reminding him, her voice tinged with displeasure.
Li Wen gave a meaningful "oh," seemingly unaffected, and said, "Jiao'er, I'm honored that you want to spend time alone with me."
Wan Jiao: "..."
The difference between high and low is that she hasn't regained her memories.
Otherwise, I really want to know what kind of past 'Runling' and this Lord Liwen have, and why he always speaks to her with that 'ambiguous' look and tone.
"What are you doing here? Please answer my questions."
Wan Jiao was so serious, and Li Wen seemed to find it boring. He shook his head many times before changing his previous nonchalant attitude and saying, "You can't go to Kunlun Mountain."
"Can't we go?" Wan Jiao stared intently into Li Wen's eyes. "Why?"
Li Wen didn't rush to answer Wan Jiao, but instead looked at Xiao Lejin, who was eating a family bucket of KFC outside the barrier. After watching her for a while, he said, "The God of the Underworld loves his daughter dearly and has planned for a thousand years to rebuild her divine soul. This fatherly love is touching, but..."
He only said half of what Wen said before stopping.
Wan Jiao twitched her lips. "The dignified Lord Li Wen can't even finish a sentence?"
Li Wen's face darkened with anger. "Even if I don't need to say anything more, you know perfectly well, don't you? Why can't you face reality? Why do you have to defy fate?"
