Xiao Zhen

Jian Ai wanted to go upstairs to see Ji Haoyu’s condition a few times, but she held back because at this moment, everything she did seemed inappropriate.

Because of Old Ji’s sudden death, the invited guests left in silence.

Soon, only the Ji family’s servants and Jian Ai were left crying in the living room downstairs.

Jian Ai did not leave. She told herself that she could not abandon Ji Haoyu at this time.

Moreover, Xiao Zhen was not here yet.

Of course, she did not expect Xiao Zhen to save Old Ji because Xiao Zhen had said he could treat all illnesses in the world, but he could not treat dead people.

The living had already passed away. These words were obviously the result, and it was the kind that had a full stop.

She looked at the time. It had been a long time since she called Xiao Zhen. Although Xiao Zhen’s villa and manor were in another suburb, he should have arrived now. Why was he not around?

Jian Ai subconsciously frowned and thought negatively. Could something have happened?

Just as she was thinking too much, the door of the Ji residence’s villa opened. Xiao Zhen and Zhi Tong appeared at the same time.

“Sect Master!”

Xiao Zhen quickly walked forward, but he immediately realized that everyone in the living room was crying. With this atmosphere, it was obvious what had happened.

Jian Ai shook her head helplessly. “He’s already gone.”

These words were exceptionally heavy. It was unknown if the atmosphere affected Jian Ai or if she was sad at the thought of Ji Haoyu. The moment she opened her mouth, tears fell.

Although these tears did not come suddenly, they still shocked Jian Ai. She quickly raised her hand to wipe them away and looked at Xiao Zhen. “Why are you so slow?”

However, Xiao Zhen looked at Jian Ai with a complicated expression and didn’t answer her. Instead, he said, “Sect Master, take me up!”

Jian Ai was stunned. After confirming that she had not heard wrongly, she couldn’t help but repeat, “Grandpa Ji has already left. Can you still save him?”

Xiao Zhen nodded.

Jian Ai subconsciously said, “Didn’t you say…”

Xiao Zhen beat her to it. “I can this time!”

Because of the environment, Jian Ai did not notice that Xiao Zhen’s expression differed from before. Her mind was filled with the words ‘he could save him.’

“Follow me!”

She believed in Xiao Zhen! Since he said he could save him, he would!

They went to the second floor together and followed the crying to Old Ji’s room. The people in the room were still immersed in sadness, so no one cared about Jian Ai and the rest.

Ji Haoyu still maintained his standing posture. Like the last standing warrior on the battlefield, he stood there without moving.

When she reached the door, the first thing Jian Ai saw was Ji Haoyu’s back. That back covered too much weight and emotions. With just a look, Jian Ai could no longer control her tears and they flowed down.

Ignoring the feeling in her heart, Jian Ai wiped her tears and rushed in.

“My friend has a way to save Grandpa Ji!”

When she came to Ji Haoyu’s side, Jian Ai said.

Ji Haoyu slowly turned his gaze to Jian Ai. There seemed to be no emotions in his pupils, or because he was too sad, he did not understand the meaning of Jian Ai’s words.

Seeing this, Jian Ai couldn’t help but reach out and grip Ji Haoyu’s ar]=. She looked into his eyes and said, “Ji Haoyu, my friend can save Grandpa Ji!”

At this moment, life gradually returned to Ji Haoyu’s eyes. His throat moved as if he wanted to say something, but Jian Ai shook her head. “Don’t say anything. I know Grandpa Ji has passed away, but…”

Jian Ai struggled in her heart for a moment. She did not know how to explain it to Ji Haoyu. In the end, she could only look at Ji Haoyu with a firm gaze and ask, “Ji Haoyu, do you believe me?”

Ji Haoyu looked at Jian Ai for a long time and nodded.

Jian Ai: “That’s enough. It’s enough to believe me!”

Ten minutes later, everyone in the Ji family returned to the corridor. The door of Old Ji’s bedroom was closed again.

Everyone still had tears on their faces. They looked at the tightly shut bedroom door and wanted to say something but hesitated.

Old Ji had already passed away, but someone still said that they could save the dead. The Ji family naturally did not believe it.

However, since Ji Haoyu had spoken, these people did not dare to disobey. They only thought that he was too sad and unwilling to accept this reality.

“Brother, can Sister Xiao Ai save Grandpa?”

Ji Haoxue’s tears had dried up from crying. Her eyes were swollen like walnuts, but she was the only one among them who still had hope.

Ji Haoyu pulled Ji Haoxue into his arms. He did not know how to answer Ji Haoxue’s words. He only asked, “Do you believe Sister Xiao Ai?”

Ji Haoxue nodded hard.

Ji Haoyu looked at Ji Haoxue. Seeing this, he said, “It’s enough to believe her.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Haoyu also looked up at the tightly shut bedroom door. He did not know if Jian Ai could do it. To be honest, he did not know what Jian Ai meant when she said that they could save his grandfather.

However, when he looked into Jian Ai’s eyes and she asked, “Do you believe me?”, he instinctively chose to believe her.

But did he believe it? Save a dead person?

He should not have believed it in his heart, but because of her, he had expectations again!

In the room, Jian Ai, Xiao Zhen, and Zhi Tong stood around the bed. The heart rate machine that was left behind during the resuscitation was still on Old Ji’s bed frame. The rhythm on it was zero.

Obviously, he was no longer around.

Jian Ai frowned and looked at Xiao Zhen with uncertainty. She asked again, “Are you sure?”

Xiao Zhen and Zhi Tong looked at each other. This time, Zhi Tong said to Jian Ai, “Sect Master, go out and wait too. Don’t let them pile at the door to disturb Brother Xiao Zhen. Let them go to the living room.”

At this moment, Jian Ai vaguely felt that something was wrong. She couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Why?”

Jian Ai couldn’t help but look at Xiao Zhen. “Are you going to use a forbidden technique to hurt yourself?”

“Sect Master, you’re overthinking!” Xiao Zhen said, “I won’t hurt myself. It’s just that the way to save a dead person differs from saving a living person. We can’t be disturbed. There are so many people outside the door, so it’s indeed inconvenient. Sect Master, it’s better for you to be outside!”

Jian Ai looked at Xiao Zhen skeptically and then at Zhi Tong. However, there was no time for her to think too much about it. She could only nod. “Alright, I’ll go out and wait.”

In the end, Jian Ai still instructed worriedly, “Don’t force yourself!”

“Don’t worry, Sect Master!” Xiao Zhen promised again.

Jian Ai nodded and turned around to leave.

Seeing Jian Ai come out, everyone couldn’t help but look up at the same time. In the next second, Jian Ai quickly turned around and closed the door. Then, she said to everyone, “Everyone, go downstairs. My friend is afraid of being disturbed.”
