Chapter 209: Woke Up Again

“Xi Er” slowly closed her eyes, and her soul was floating up. Is my soul coming out?

It’s good. This physical pain is finally over…

She seemed to have had a long dream. This time, it wasn’t a modern world in the dream. Her familiar parents were there. Instead, it was a strange place. She stood on an empty ground. There seemed to be a voice calling her name again and again. She looked around, but she couldn’t find the person who was calling her name. That voice was whispering into her ears. It was an affectionate, sad… female voice.

Who is calling me?

Why does it sound so sad?

After a long time, the sad voice gradually disappeared. It was replaced by footsteps and… Wan Qiyu’s voice…

The slender eyelashes of the girl on the bed twitched slightly. Is my… soul returned to my body?

It’s great.

Suddenly, the girl on the bed opened her eyes, but she closed them back as she wasn’t used to the daylight.

“Xi Xi, you finally woke up.”

Wan Qiyu was so excited that his fingers trembled slightly.

When Xiao Xi opened her eyes again, she saw Wan Qiyu’s excited handsome face. She opened her mouth and spoke with a hoarse voice, “I’m back to my body?”

The smile on Wan Qiyu’s face gradually faded. His eyes flashed, and he sat on Xiao Xi’s bed, holding her little hand, “Don’t worry about that much, your sword injury is very serious. If I didn’t try my best to save you, I’m afraid you will now become a soul now.”

Xiao Xi was not stupid. Wan Qiyu’s expression told her that her soul had not returned to her body. She frowned, “Where is this place?”

Wan Qiyu looked at her and said slowly, “Regent mansion.”

Xiao Xi was a little surprised, “Didn’t Feng Lingran leave with my body? How could Nan Gongyin let me go? How could I be at the regent mansion? My body… where is my body?”

Wan Qiyu was a little bit dumbfounded. He patted Xiao Xi’s palm lightly, “Xi Xi, you have too many questions. This is not good for your current health. No matter what, let the injuries on your body recover first okay? Even it is for the real owner of this body. You’re borrowing Xi Er’s body now. You can’t ruin the body of someone else and return it to her right?”

Xiao Xi gradually calmed down. Looking at Dumbass Yu in front of her, she still had a lot of questions in her mind that she didn’t understand, but he probably wouldn’t tell her now.

“Okay.” Xiao Xi said, “When I get better, will you tell me all these?”

Wan Qiyu nodded, and his dark eyes flashed with concern, “You just woke up, you shouldn’t talk more. Take a good rest! I will go out first. I will come to see you tomorrow.”

A few days later, Xiao Xi hadn’t seen Feng Lingran since she woke up. Wan Qiyu was also vague, saying only that Feng Lingran was very busy with the matters in the imperial court recently.

The sword injury on Xiao Xi’s shoulder also improved day by day. Although her hand couldn’t exert force to grab something, she could at least get out of the bed and walk.

Xiao Xi saw Ling Er in her original room. It closed its eyes and cultivated beside the Spirit Epiphyllum. These days, Ling Er had lost a lot of weight.

“Lord has ordered that no one can enter Miss Xiao’s room without his permission. Come out quickly.”

Steward Qin saw “Xi Er” enter Xiao Xi’s room, his face was very ugly. Even his words sounded a little bit harsh.

Almost everyone in the entire mansion knew what this girl thought of Lord, but there was only Miss Xiao in Lord’s heart. He never took a look at “Xi Er”. This time he brought back “Xi Er” who was seriously injured, did he go and visit her?

If she wasn’t useful for Lord, he would have chased her out long ago.

Xiao Xi turned around, looked at Steward Qin, and walked out, “Steward Qin, when will Feng Lingran come back?”

Qin Wen angrily said, “How dare you call Lord’s name directly?”

Xiao Xi didn’t seem to see the anger on Qin Wen’s face. She still wanted to ask something, but she still shut her mouth. If she told Qin Wen that she was Xiao Xi, he would be more angry, thinking that she was deceiving him. Even Feng Lingran didn’t believe in her, why would Qin Wen believe in her?

She didn’t say anything, and she didn’t ask about Feng Lingran’s return. She walked past Qing Wen and went further away.

In a blink of an eye, another half month passed, Xiao Xi’s shoulder injury was basically recovered with the help of Wan Qiyu’s magical medicine. Her hand can lift some light things. Xiao Xi’s face also looked a little better.

In the past half month, she still hadn’t seen Feng Lingran. He had never come to visit her.

“Wan Qiyu, I’m almost recovered now, can you tell the whole story?”

Xiao Xi finished the medicine sent by Wan Qiyu, put the medicine bowl aside, looked at him and said.

Wan Qiyu looked at Xiao Xi and said with a smile, “Actually, it’s nothing, but that day when you were about to die. Feng Lingran suddenly changed his mind. He returned your body to Nan Gongyin and brought you back. ”

Xiao Xi was shocked. How could this be? This is not like Feng Lingran’s style! Does he know I’m Xiao Xi?

“He recognized me?”

Xiao Xi’s voice trembled a little. Although it was a little weird, this was the only reasonable explanation.

Wan Qiyu laughed, “I don’t think that’s the case. He probably saw that Xi Er looked more like you, so he could not bear to see Xi Er die that day right?”

Is Feng Lingran so kind? I don’t believe it at all.

Suddenly, Wan Qiyu approached Xiao Xi and said mysteriously, “Xi Xi, could it be that your body hurt Feng Lingran so badly that Feng Lingran has given up on you? That’s why he brought back Xi Er to take your place?”

Xiao Xi frowned and rolled her eyes at Wan Qiyu. Can’t this guy say something good?

Wan Qiyu didn’t seem to see Xiao Xi rolling her eyes on him, and he continued to say, “If this is the case, then when your soul returns to your body, Feng Lingran will get along with Xi Er. Xi Xi, I think you can just stay with Nan Gongyin.”

Suddenly Xiao Xi stretched out her hand and pushed Wan Qiyu down on the edge of the bed, “Just shut your damn mouth!”

Feng Lingran brought me back to the regent mansion for so many days, but he never came to visit me. How could he get along with Xi Er

Wan Qiyu pretended to fall to the ground and exclaimed. He climbed up from the edge of the bed, stretching out his head. He said despicably, “Xi Xi, you are so angry to hear that Feng Lingran would get along with Xi Er, this proves that you still love Feng Lingran right?”

Xiao Xi really wanted to stuff a shoe into Wan Qiyu’s mouth. How did he conclude that I love Feng Lingran?

“Dumbass Yu, enough.”

Wan Qiyu smiled at Xi Xi and said, “It doesn’t matter, if you are afraid that Feng Lingran and Xi Er will get along, I will teach you a trick.”

“…”

“Just let your soul stay in Xi Er’s body forever and don’t go out. Isn’t this making the best of both worlds?” Wan Qiyu chuckled, and he continued to say foolishly, “It happens that Feng Lingran needs the blood of your body to completely relieve the cold blaise, so it is not a murder if I drain all the blood of your body.”

Xiao Xi’s eyes almost popped out. She bent over to pick up a shoe and smashed it on Wan Qiyu’s head, “Dumbass Yu, why don’t you die?”

“Ouch… you little fox, I saved your life and thought for your own good. You actually smashed my head with your shoe? You’re ungrateful, vindictive, heartless…” Wan Qiyu saw Xiao Xi picked up another shoe and threw it at him. He hurriedly left Xiao Xi’s room. He pointed at Xiao Xi and said, “I will never give you medicine tomorrow onward.”

The shoes flew out of the room. Wan Qiyu widened his eyes and avoided them.

Xiao Xi’s mouth twitched. She glanced outside and saw the man behind Wan Qiyu, and she was taken aback.

Feng Lingran reached out and grabbed the flying shoes. His cold face was like a shining diamond under the sunlight. He looked at the girl in the room with the dark abyss eyes.

Wan Qiyu turned around and saw Feng Lingran. He was a little surprised. He said with a smile, “Lingran, you come back from the imperial court so early today? Hehe, I have something to do, I’ll leave first.”

When Wan Qiyu was about to leave, Feng Lingran reached out and stopped him.

“Come in with me.”

After that, Feng Lingran took the shoes in his hand and walked into Xiao Xi’s room.

Doubts flashed in Wan Qiyu’s eyes. Why did Feng Lingran tell me to go in? Could it be that he heard what I said just now?

Wan Qiyu’s face looked a little awkward. He followed Feng Lingran into Xiao Xi’s room.

Feng Lingran threw the shoes under Xiao Xi’s bed. He looked at Xiao Xi’s delicate face, which looked much better than before.

“Is her injury healed?”

Wan Qiyu froze for a moment and said, “It’s much better, but it will take some time before it is completely recovered.”

Feng Lingran nodded, and suddenly said, “I just heard you mentioned little fox, do you mean her?”

Wan Qiyu was shocked in his heart. I really guessed it correctly. Feng Lingran indeed heard it.

“Lingran, don’t you think she looks like that little fox?”

Xiao Xi’s face turned pale. She glanced at Wan Qiyu, and Wan Qiyu gave her a wry smile.

Feng Lingran’s dark eyes stared at the little girl in front of him strangely, and his thin lips raised a cold smile, “It’s really similar, but she is not after all.”

Xiao Xi’s heart slowly relaxed. However, before she was completely relieved, Feng Lingran’s words made Xiao Xi anxious again.

“I feel a bit strange. Why did Xiao Xi next to Nan Gongyin suddenly become stupid? Is it really because of Green Juice Voodoo?” Feng Lingran’s dark eyes were looking at Xiao Xi’s face, not letting go of any of her expressions.

Xiao Xi knew that the current Feng Lingran was the Feng Lingran with cold blaise. His eyes were filled with a kind of strangeness as if they could devour human souls.

After a while.

Xiao Xi couldn’t bear Feng Lingran’s dark and cold eyes, and she said, “En, the Green Juice Voodoo antidote that Xiao Xi drank is the blood of Nan Gongyin’s mother. His mother had already been lying in the tomb, so her blood must have a problem. It was possible that Xiao Xi became stupid. However, it isn’t that Xiao Xi can’t be saved. Maybe Mister Yu has a way to let Xiao Xi return to normal. Mister Yu, am I right?”
