Chapter 1237: Inverted Hanging Mountain
Xuanji was a sensible child. In her eyes, there was no such thing as getting something for nothing in this world. After arriving at her new home, she often swept the floors and washed the dishes, not daring to slack off.
She was even more afraid—afraid that all of this was fake, that it would shatter at the lightest touch.
Her maturity was heartbreaking.
Dong Chiyu had reasoned with her many times, telling her that this was her home and she didn't need to act this way. But the girl had a knot in her heart and simply could not be swayed.
Sometimes, Dong Chiyu couldn't help but sigh to Ruyi, "Xuanji is so well-behaved. I wonder if it's a blessing we earned in our past lives."
Ruyi strongly agreed. "Maybe it really is..."
Dong Chiyu liked Xuanji very much and often held her as they slept. Though they rarely spoke, it made Xuanji feel incredibly safe, and she always slept soundly.
To her, having food to eat and a place to live was already more than enough.
Both of her mothers were very, very good people.
