When they returned to Yan Family, Xuebao and Yan Junyi walked into the living room together after getting out of the car. They just realized that Yan Meiqi had actually arrived home before them. She was currently in the living room.

Old Master Yan, who was standing at the side, was laughing happily. Since entering the Yan Family for so long, it was the first time Xuebao saw a smile on Mrs. Yan's face. Although that smile was very faint, it was a real smile. That ice-like face of hers was not that scary anymore!

"Dad, take a look at this. Can you understand the words on it? I heard from my mentor that this is a 'Moon God', but I don't think it looks like it." Yan Meiqi took out a piece from a pile of strange-looking stones and handed it to Old Master Yan.

Old Master Yan took the strange stone from her hand and used a magnifying glass to study it carefully.

After Yan Meiqi saw Yan Junyi and Xuebao, she happily waved at Yan Junyi and said, "Big Brother, quickly come over and take a look. I have gained a lot this time. I have found everything related to the Moon God. Quickly come over and take a look."

Yan Junyi was not interested in these things at all. He only felt that his sister had been led astray by Old Master Yan, but he still walked towards the middle of the living room and sat down on the sofa, looking at them lazily.

Xuebao took a step forward and looked at the treasures in front of Yan Meiqi. She found that they were all strange-looking stones. They looked very old and some of the stones were even engraved with many things that she did not understand.

Were these things really related to Moon God? Yan Meiqi went on a trip to pick up these antiques? Was she doing this for Yan Junyi's illness? When she found that Old Master Yan and Yan Meiqi were so interested in these things, she wondered if these things were really helpful to Yan Junyi!

In the middle of the living room was a family of four from the Yan Family who were joking and busying themselves. Xuebao felt that she was isolated, so she bored and walked upstairs. When she walked out of the balcony and saw the direction of south yard, she naturally thought of Yu Er.

Xuebao found the newly bought binoculars from the cabinet and stood on the balcony to look at south yard. Unfortunately, the trees in the garden blocked her view.

After hesitating for a moment, Xuebao took the telescope and secretly went up to the fourth floor. She was on the roof of the fourth floor looking in the direction of south yard. Through the binoculars, she could vaguely see the white wall building in south yard.

It was very quiet there. There was no one there. Of course, she could not see Yi Yuer's figure. She did not know if she was in the house or if she would never appear again. Xuebao sighed lightly!

She suddenly remembered the scene of Old Master Yan inviting a priest to exorcise evil in south yard last night. Could it be that Old Master Yan's method really worked? Yi Yuer's soul was chased out?

Xuebao shook her head, feeling that her thinking was very funny. But she was also so eager to know the answer, otherwise she would really be driven crazy by these strange phenomena. She suspected that Yan Junyi's previous wives were tortured like this and went crazy. If she faced these things that could not be solved with common sense every day, sooner or later she would lose her mind!

In order not to be tortured to the point of losing her mind, Xuebao secretly decided to make the truth come to light. The previous two times when she went to south yard, she could see Yi Yuer, so she was prepared to go and try again today!

Xuebao avoided the gazes of others and arrived at south yard. She crouched outside the iron fence that she had peeked at the last time and looked through the iron fence towards the main hall of the main house. She saw those crazy and disheveled women again.

An old woman was combing their hair and dressing them up. The hair that the old woman had just combed was messed up by another madman. The old woman was very angry, so she used something unknown to hit the woman's palm. In the next moment, the woman began to cry.

Xuebao saw their expressions and felt very sympathetic towards them. She did not know if there would be a day when she would be like them, locked up in this seemingly luxurious but very cruel house.

She laid outside the wall and looked for a long time, but she did not see Yi Yuer's figure. A complicated feeling infected her pretty face, and it was hard to tell whether she was happy or disappointed. She did not know if she wanted to see Yi Yuer.

Her small hand reached into the pocket of her clothes and pinched the string that she had bought with Yan Junyi the day before yesterday between her fingers. But she did not move after a long time. After hesitating for a long time, she placed the string under the wall of the fence. She took one last look at the woman in the room, then turned around and quietly walked towards the front yard.

After she went back to her bedroom to take a shower and fell asleep, she heard the maid tell her that Young Master was looking for her. She had no choice but to get up.

When she reached Yan Junyi's bedroom, Yan Junyi was taking a shower. Xuebao, with her sharp eyes, saw a stone that looked like a human face on the bedside table. There were a few ancient words carved on the stone, but she could not understand what it meant.

Xuebao thought that this must have been brought back by Yan Meiqi from other places. Just as she was about to put it back, Yan Junyi walked out of the bathroom. He was wearing a light blue robe and his hair was still dripping.

Xuebao held the wondrous rock and walked in front of him. She looked up at him and asked, "Do you also believe in this?"

Yan Junyi looked at the rock in her hand and shook his head, "I don't believe in this kind of thing." He had never believed that there was a curse in the world, even though he was helpless against the illness in his body.

"Then why did you bring this thing back?" Xuebao did not understand and put the stone back.

Yan Junyi used a dry towel to wipe the water droplets on his hair as he casually said, "That was Mei Qi's good intention. I could not bear to refuse, so I brought it back."

So that was the case. Xuebao understood. Yan Junyi wrapped his arms around her waist and lowered his head to kiss her lips. Xuebao's small face leaned to the side, unwilling to accept his kiss.

She knew that the man in front of her was treating her as Yi Yuer's substitute again. When would she hear him call her by her name?

When she understood his feelings for Yi Yuer, Xuebao did not dare to hold any hope anymore.

Every time, Xuebao would decide to be cold to him to take revenge for his disloyalty to this game. However, every time it was halfway through, she would start to respond to him.

Even if every time she heard Yu Er's name, she did not have the mood to care. She only wanted to follow her feelings, respond to him, and be obsessed for a long time.

Yan Junyi gradually stopped all his movements. As usual, he gently held her in his arms.

Today, she did not hear Yu Er's name. Xuebao opened her eyes in surprise and surprisingly saw Yan Junyi looking at her with that deep and melancholy gaze again. She did not know what he was thinking at the moment. Was he missing Yu Er?

In order to break this strange atmosphere, Xuebao looked at him and said, "I am going to Waterhill to travel in a few days. After class tomorrow, I will go shopping with my classmates. I will go back to my mother's place tomorrow night."

"Yes." Yan Junyi responded, then he turned to the side.

Xuebao propped herself up and laid on his chest. She lowered her head to look at him. "Recently, someone found a strange underground palace in Waterhill called Moon God Temple. Are you interested in going there to take a look?"

"I'm not interested." Yan Junyi closed his eyes. He had no interest in Moon God Temple.

Xuebao was very unhappy with his refusal without any consideration. But she did not give up. "It will be Saturday three days later. You don't have to go to work. Think of it as going for a stroll. Aren't you afraid that I will sleep in the same bed as Lin Jian? "

"You dare?" Yan Junyi suddenly opened his eyes and stared at her.

"Then do you want to go?" Xuebao laughed dryly.

Yan Junyi turned his head slightly and glanced at the date three days later on the calendar. That day was like a sharp knife stabbing into his heart. His heart instantly ached. He shook his head, closed his eyes again, and prepared to rest.

Xuebao saw that he was not interested and did not force him anymore. She only felt that these things might have something to do with his illness and he might be interested. Since he did not want to go, then forget it.

On the way to Waterhill, Xuebao and Lin Jian naturally sat in the same row of seats. The classmates had long regarded them as a couple and didn't find it strange.

They set off in the morning and when they arrived at Waterhill, it was already afternoon. The five-hour journey made everyone feel tired.

The bus stopped steadily in the parking lot, and the students could not wait to rush out from the bus. Xuebao hung her luggage on Lin Jian's body and skipped to the villa with the girls.

"That's senior Lan Ning's car. He arrived before us." A girl rushed to the side of a silver-white sports car and exclaimed with a face full of infatuation.

"Where is senior Lan Ning now?" Another girl joined in.

Xuebao looked in their direction and saw a silvery-white car. She felt that it was very familiar because this car was rarely seen in Ning City, so she remembered it.

Where did she see it? She remembered that it was on the day of the banquet when the staff stopped her. It was precisely after the owner of the car said something to them that she was allowed to enter the venue.

This car belonged to Senior Lan Ning? So the mysterious person who had helped her that night was Lan Ning. He was the owner of the Water Bay Villa, and only he had the right to let her enter.

Just as everyone was surprised, the car door was pushed open from the inside, and Lan Ning, dressed in casual clothes, walked out from the driver's seat. He greeted everyone with a smile. "Good afternoon, everyone. Can we go in now?"

"Hello, senior." The girls answered happily. After all, this was their first time coming into contact with the influential people in the school. It was difficult to control the excitement in their hearts. When Lan Ning walked in, he was surrounded by a group of girls like a celebrity.

Lan Ning was surrounded in the middle, and he maintained a polite smile on his face. He finally managed to squeeze out some spare time, and turned around to glance at the group of boys who were left behind. Then his gaze stopped on Xuebao for three seconds.

After seeing Xuebao and Lin Jian walking together, his face darkened a little, but quickly returned to normal. He continued to chat and laugh with the girls as he walked towards the villa.

Behind him were some couples. Maybe it was because they had a boyfriend by their side that they did not dare to be infatuated with him. Lin Jian turned his head and smiled at Xuebao. He said, "Your secret crush is about to be divided among the girls. Aren't you going to fight for a chance?"

"You really want me to do this?" Xuebao smiled mischievously at him. She raised her hand and pressed the sun hat on Lin Jian's head.

"I don't want you to do this. Is it useful?" Lin Jian teased. No matter what Xuebao did, as long as she was happy, he wanted her to do it!

"It's useless." Xuebao laughed loudly and looked at Lan Ning's back in front of her. A trace of bitterness suddenly surged in her heart. She forced a smile and said, "In the past, no one told me that Lan Ning's home was the Prominent Family of Ning City. I know my own limits."

She could only be infatuated with Lan Ning. He was not suitable to be her boyfriend. She knew about this the moment she saw Lan Ning at the banquet. Furthermore, she was not clean anymore. She had already married someone. She was not worthy of Lan Ning, who was like a prince.

Lin Jian turned his head and looked at her with a surprised look. He teased her, "Do you have times when you feel inferior?"

They entered the room. The class monitor arranged Xuebao and Lin Jian in the same room. Xuebao did not care about this. After she put down her luggage, she could not wait to walk out of the house. She planned to visit this luxurious vacation villa. She left Lin Jian alone in the room to clean up the room.
