Chapter 124: Chapter 124: This Ancestor Isn’t Very Cold
Xia Xin heard this and handed the phone to Jiangli.
Jiangli didn’t take it, instead saying, “Hello…”
Seeing her shouting into the phone, Xia Xin could only press the speakerphone button.
Wang Xinjun’s voice ca through, “Abbot, Abbot… my Zixin has suffered terribly!”
As he spoke, he began to weep with sobs.
Jiangli calmly asked, “What happened?”
Wang Xinjun continued speaking, recounting Wang Zixin’s ordeal.
Xia Xin didn’t rule out that Uncle Wang was exaggerating.
Because, what Wang Xinjun said was too exaggerated, going on about how miserable Wang Zixin was.
Worried, Xia Xin asked, “So, Zixin is okay now, right?”
Wang Xinjun choked up, “Mhm, she’s in the hospital now, nothing serious, but she still hasn’t woken up. You tell , why does my girl have to suffer all this!”
Xia Xin looked at Jiangli, seeing she didn’t plan to speak, he steeled himself to offer comfort, “Well, Uncle Wang, girls are always more vulnerable, so we need to be extra careful. But luckily, Zixin is okay now, isn’t she? Don’t worry, as long as Zixin is fine, nothing else matters. You need to take good care of yourself now, just make sure you don’t fall ill once Zixin gets better. She’s definitely relying on you right now.”
Wang Xinjun said, “I understand, I get it all. I’m just calling to let you and the Abbot know we’re safe, so you don’t have to worry about us. Zixin and I will head back tomorrow, and I’ll bring her personally to Jiaoyang Temple to offer incense and thank the Abbot and the Ancestral Master for their blessings.”
Jiangli raised an eyebrow; this man was quite on point.
Xia Xin sneaked a glance at her, thinking that the old ancestor didn’t seem too worried.
However…
He suddenly rembered sothing.
Just to send Qiang Hongtao and Shuaishuai away, Jiangli had gone as far as to summon Judge Cui.
Actually, the old ancestor wasn’t as devoid of all emotion as she claid, was she?
Otherwise, she would have simply dismissed Qiang Hongtao and Shuaishuai.
Why then did she need to enlist Judge Cui?
And use her own rit and destiny to pave their way and ensure their path ahead was bright and splendid?
After hanging up on Wang Xinjun, although the old ancestor was still browsing ga guides, she didn’t ask him to play gas with her anymore.
She was probably waiting for Wang Xinjun’s call, wasn’t she?
Thinking this, Xia Xin looked at Jiangli, feeling like he understood the old ancestor a little more.
He cleared his throat and said to Wang Xinjun, “Uncle Wang, we’re relieved Zixin is okay. Our Abbot was quite worried about you all. Now that we know you’re okay, we can sleep well tonight. Uncle Wang, you should rest early too, and if anything cos up, just give us a call.”
Upon hearing that Jiangli was worried about them, Wang Xinjun was deeply moved, thanked them profusely, and promised to visit Jiaoyang Temple personally to express his gratitude once they returned, before hanging up.
Xia Xin put away the phone, and Jiangli glanced at him, “I didn’t expect you, this kid, to be so fond of delivering false edicts. When did I say I was worried about them?”
“Co on, old ancestor, no need to play tough!” Xia Xin chuckled, “Just look at this ga guide. Are you really into it?”
Jiangli glanced at the page that had been left open for a long ti and said nothing.
Seeing this, Xia Xin felt even more certain he was right.
Feeling unusually bold, he took Jiangli’s phone and flipped through to find so short videos for her.
“Old ancestor, stop playing gas and just watch these videos instead to learn more about our world!”
With that, Xia Xin handed the phone back to Jiangli.
Jiangli looked at the tags on those videos: Science Education.
Her face twitched, and she looked up.
Xia Xin was already at the door, slipping away without looking back, running faster than a monkey.
