The Double

"It’s all because of the trouble caused by women. Alas," aware that his words might have been inappropriate, Wen Renyao quickly tried to remedy the situation, saying, "I didn’t mean Miss Jiang the Second. And that divination... it might not be accurate either. Ah Heng herself isn’t even afraid, and my master has said, the Fuji Sect’s skills have been declining with each generation. By my generation, my ability to perform spirit writing has become a complete mess, a disgrace to my lineage, so it’s possible there was a mistake."

Although Wen Renyao said this, Jiang Li couldn’t relax because of his explanation. For some reason, she had a bad premonition, as if a heavy stone was pressing on her chest.

Seeing that Jiang Li’s expression still hadn’t lightened, Wen Renyao silently cursed himself for being talkative and suddenly thought of something, then said, "Miss Jiang the Second, there’s no need to worry. That divination isn’t complete yet; it’s only one aspect, there’s more to it, I..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the door to Xue Huaiyuan’s room opened, and Jih Heng walked out.

Wen Renyao immediately forgot what he had wanted to say and just gave Jih Heng a look, surprised, "You actually look quite happy?"

Jiang Li looked at Jih Heng, who had a healthy complexion and a smile on his lips, seemingly at ease. Her heart settled a little as Xue Huaiyuan also came out shortly after. Xue Huaiyuan also appeared well, nodded at Jiang Li with a smile, and her heart finally completely relaxed.

She walked over to Jih Heng and asked softly, "What did father say to you?"

With a slight smirk, Jih Heng replied, "He said you are spoiled and willful and told me to put up with you in the future."
