Daily Life in the Countryside After Being Reborn

Chapter 924: Chapter 49: Yezi’s Farewell (Part 2)

The two elderly people, seemingly in their twilight years, looked at Xiao Xian. The whole matter, with its most direct victim, stood right before them.

"There’s no need. Just saying ’guilty’ won’t solve anything anymore. What my grandfather has been waiting for isn’t something that can be resolved with mere words of justice. I’ll handle things my way, let everything start over," Xiao Xian didn’t harbor much hatred toward Zhang Lvxiao. The root of the matter didn’t lie with the Wang Family. They were merely a part of the entire affair.

"What do you plan to do?" Wang Fenglei understood the meaning behind Xiao Xian’s words, "Are you planning to use this chance at Cangqiong Palace?"

"Yes, I’m very curious about what wish you made when you entered Cangqiong Palace years ago." Everyone who participates in Cangqiong Palace is told that if they succeed in the trial, they can make one wish.

"My wish," Wang Fenglei seemed a bit lost. After a pause, he sighed, "My wish was to ensure the Wang Family’s glory would last for a hundred generations."

Zhang Lvxiao was stunned. She had always believed that Wang Fenglei’s deepest wish in his heart was to bring her back to life, to bring that certain someone back.

His heart was still filled with the Wang Family.

"My wish is quite similar to Senior Wang’s," Xiao Xian said as she saw them off, standing by the window and staring at the gray sky.

She just wanted to know what awaited her beyond the heavens.

The selection site for the Cangqiong Palace was soon delivered to each participant in the form of a letter.

"Huh, why can’t I see what’s written on the letter?" Yiyi ultimately didn’t join the trial. Wang Shuai, Xiao Xian, and Li Ye participated on behalf of the Huake Institute.

"Only the participants themselves can see what’s written on the letter," Xiao Xian closed the letter, silent.

"I’ll go ask Wang Shuai and Li Ye where their trial sites are?" Yiyi contacted Wang Shuai, and his trial site was in Beijing. As for Li Ye, Yiyi made a few calls but couldn’t reach Yezi.

"What’s going on? At such a critical moment, that kid dropped the ball," Yiyi glanced at Xiao Xian, "Xiao Xian, isn’t your trial site in Beijing too?"

"My trial site is..." Xiao Xian already knew where Yezi had gone. He must have gone to Guizhou.

Xiao Xian wasn’t wrong. When Yezi received the notification letter, he initially wanted to discuss it with Xiao Xian. But after seeing the location mentioned in the letter, he decided to return to Guizhou first.

Yezi found Xiao Xian three days later.

He looked very tired.

"I went back to Guizhou," Xiao Xian thought Yezi went home to visit Mama, father, and Niuniu.

Niuniu is Yezi’s sister.

Before Yezi could finish speaking, without any warning, he hugged Xiao Xian, "Xiao Xian, do you know, I really like you."

Something was welling up in Xiao Xian’s eyes, and she bit her lip.

Yezi’s arms were warm and strong. He was no longer the mischievous ten-year-old boy.

"Yezi, I can’t, there’s nothing I can do." Xiao Xian gently placed her hand on Yezi’s back and took a deep breath, recalling how this warmth appeared in her hardest, most helpless moments; he had already grown into a good man.

"If it weren’t for him, would it..." Yezi already knew the answer to this, and he kissed Xiao Xian’s forehead before letting her go.

The Xiao Xian before him only had serenity in her eyes.

Like the beautiful night sky.

Yezi always knew Xiao Xian guarded a secret she had never shared with him, and he also had his own secret, one he couldn’t tell her.

"I already know the answer. So, where’s your trial site this time?" Yezi resumed a lively demeanor, reverting to the mischievous Yezi.

"A very strange trial site, it’s actually in Cherry Valley," Xiao Xian shrugged, having always thought the trial for Cangqiong Palace would be held in the same place.

Unexpectedly, the trial locations were different for everyone.

"Cherry Valley? When do you plan to leave," Yezi tightened his grip on the envelope in his pocket, which contained the location of his trial.

"Tomorrow. I want to visit Aunt and Uncle again. After all, no one knows the outcome of this trial," Xiao Xian prepared for the worst.

"Alright, I won’t accompany you then; I need to go home and see my parents," Yezi ruffled Xiao Xian’s hair.

"You didn’t go back to see them? I thought you went to Guizhou to see them," Xiao Xian was puzzled about where Yezi had been for the past three days.

"Old Man Fei isn’t doing well, so I went back to see him for the last time," Yezi forced a smile.

"You went to see him?" Xiao Xian still remembered the last time she saw Old Man Fei in Fiji, he wasn’t in good condition, his pulse almost petrified. Old Man Fei also mentioned wanting to see Yezi once more.

"Yes, he gave some instructions," Yezi didn’t want to elaborate. After chatting a bit more with Xiao Xian, he hailed a taxi for her to go see Zhuo Feng and the others in Yanqing.

As the taxi drove away, Little Pig flew out.

"Why didn’t you tell Xiao Xian about the place you’re going to? That place is a no-return, you know," Little Pig wondered. Yezi had always been clever, so why didn’t he make things clear?

Yezi said nothing. He took out the letter from his pocket, staring at the words "Beast Star" on the paper. (To be continued. If you enjoyed this work, please visit Qidian () to vote for a recommendation ticket, monthly ticket. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
