Chapter 347: Like a Fool

Chapter 347: Chapter 347: Like a Fool

Xia Xin excitedly took it, overjoyed, "Thank you, Ancestor! I will definitely train hard!"

"Alright," Jiangli glanced at him with disdain, "Now hurry up and wash up, and change my sheets while you’re at it. Make it quick."

Upon hearing that, Xia Xin suddenly became aware that his clothes were completely soaked with sweat.

Not only that, but he had also ruined Jiangli’s bed sheets.

His face instantly became complex and so embarrassed he wished he could find a hole to crawl into.

He quickly jumped off Jiangli’s bed as if there were man-eating hooks on it.

As he got down, he rolled up Jiangli’s bed sheets and said with a flushed face, "I, I’m going to wash..."

Jiangli raised an eyebrow.

Rolling up the bed sheets, Xia Xin then bolted out.

As if there were floods and ferocious beasts in the room.

Jiangli chuckled lightly.

At that moment, Xia Xin’s phone rang.

Jiangli took a look and it was a message from Chen Tianxu.

[Bro Xia, I didn’t know if you were resting, so I didn’t want to disturb you with a call. My dad is okay now, he’s sustained some minor injuries, but nothing serious. But I’m still not at ease, I just discussed with my mom, and we are on our way to B city now. I’ll contact you guys later. Oh, and please thank the Abbot for me, my mom and I will come to offer incense.]

Jiangli understood the message but did not reply.

It was getting late, and Chen Tianxu still had to rush to B city, there was no need to contact him now.

They could talk some other time when there was opportunity.

Jiangli waited in the room for a while, then Xia Xin, who had quickly taken a shower, ran back and deftly changed Jiangli’s sheets and duvet cover.

He rubbed his hands together, standing beside the bed, and without lifting his head, said, "Ancestor, everything is ready. You should rest early!"

No sooner had he spoken than he tried to make a run for it.

However, as if Jiangli had anticipated his move, she caught the back of his collar in one swift motion.

Xia Xin shrunk his head down as if his neck had been grasped, reluctantly staying put with a red face and a soft buzz, "Ancestor, is there anything else you need...?"

"We need to go to S city tomorrow, remember to pack some things, and make sure you have the plane tickets ready—you do use plane tickets for travel around here, right?" Jiangli recalled that Yao Xuanhang had briefly mentioned it.

Xia Xin nodded with difficulty, "Understood, I’ll prepare the plane tickets when I get back."

But... since the Ancestor had a temporary ID card, he should be able to buy plane tickets, right?

Xia Xin was somewhat uncertain and could only try it out later.

Jiangli, uninformed about these matters, left it all to Xia Xin, "Good, just remember that. Go back to rest, we’re leaving tomorrow morning."

Xia Xin patted his chest, "Leave it to me, Ancestor, don’t worry!"

Only then did Jiangli let him go.

Xia Xin, his neck finally free, heaved a deep sigh of relief and turned to run.

Seeing his scared reaction, Jiangli chuckled, "Timider than a scaredy-cat."

Lin Yurong did not utter a word, only smiling.

...

While Jiangli had finally settled down to rest, Yao Xuanhang still had not.

The incident where he ran into a ghost had left a psychological shadow in his heart.

It was as if his mind had split in two.

One half said, there was definitely no such thing.

The other half felt, that the image was too real to be a mere trick of the eyes.

He had wanted to go ask Jiangli about it.

But Cui Wenzhe stopped him.

Without evidence, it really wasn’t fitting to rashly disturb a female Abbot, especially in the middle of the night.

Besides, if there really were ghosts, the Abbot would have certainly noticed them by now.

Cui Wenzhe believed that there would absolutely be no ghosts in the dojo, and it must have been Yao Xuanhang overthinking.

Yao Xuanhang then started to waver and did not insist on seeking out Jiangli, but he still felt uneasy at heart.

So, he stayed awake until dawn, focusing intently on any noise from the neighboring room.

But there was never any unusual disturbance next door.

It made him feel like a fool.
