“Woke up.” Xiao Jinfeng looked at Xiao Jingting, who was getting up to find food, and said somewhat abruptly.
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yeah.”
“How do you feel?” Xiao Jinfeng asked.
“About to become immortal!” Xiao Jingting said frankly. In his previous life, he really missed out; he remained a virgin all his life.
“That’s something! How is he?” Xiao Jinfeng asked.
“He’s still sleeping. It seems like he has broken through to the fourth level of Qi Cultivation.” Xiao Jingting said.
Xiao Jinfeng furrowed his brow and said, “Advanced?”
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yeah. He’s sleeping quite deeply, so I didn’t wake him up.”
“It’s strange. Why did he get ‘Spring Poison’?” Xiao Jinfeng asked in confusion.
Xiao Jingting shook his head, scratching it in distress, and said, “I don’t know either! We can only wait for Mu’an to wake up and ask him.”
Xiao Xiaofan and Xiao Xiaodong walked out of the room. The two little rascals slept in the room Xiao Jingting gave to Xiao Jinfeng last night because the situation on Xiao Jingting’s side was too intense. Xiao Jinfeng felt embarrassed to take a small bed over there, so he let the two kids sleep in the bed, while he and Mu Shuyu slept on the floor.
Xiao Xiaofan looked up, puzzled, at Xiao Jingting. Xiao Jingting waved at Xiao Xiaofan and asked, “What are you looking at?”
Xiao Xiaofan bit his finger, seeming a bit hesitant, and said, “Father, did you bully Mother-Father(he kept calling XMA like that it’s kinda cute , I think I’ll let it be, Mother father for Xiaofan) yesterday?”
Xiao Jingting suddenly became dumbfounded.
“Mother-Father has been saying it hurts.” Xiao Xiaofan muttered gloomily.
Xiao Jingting: “You misheard…”
Xiao Xiaofan grumbled unhappily, “Everyone says I misheard, but I clearly heard Mother-Father crying out!”
Xiao Jingting: “…” This brat, speaking as if his skills were terrible.
Xiao Xiaofan looked at Xiao Jingting full of resentment, making Xiao Jingting feel somewhat guilty.
“Where’s Mother-Father?” Xiao Xiaofan asked.
“In the room.” Xiao Jingting said.
“I’ll go see Mother-Father.” Xiao Xiaofan said.
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Okay, but Mother-Father is still resting. You have to be gentle.”
Xiao Xiaofan nodded repeatedly and said, “I know.”
Xiao Xiaofan ran into the room and leaned over to the side of Xu Mu’an’s bed, calling out, “Mother-Father.”
Xu Mu’an kept his eyes closed, pretending to be asleep. In fact, he had woken up a long time ago, but he remembered how he was diagnosed with Spring Poison yesterday, and how he clung to Xiao Jingting shamelessly, feeling embarrassed, so he simply pretended to be an ostrich.
“Mother-Father, are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?” Xiao Xiaodong asked.
Xu Mu’an’s face flushed red. While the younger son didn’t understand what happened last night, the elder son was quite perceptive.
“Yeah! Mother-Father, what did you do yesterday? You look more tired than after hunting.” Xiao Xiaofan said.
Xu Mu’an blushed and said, “Mother-Father isn’t very tired.”
Mu Shuyu and Xiao Jinfeng took the two kids to the fields, leaving only Xiao Jingting and Xu Mu’an at home.
“You’re awake?” Xiao Jingting looked at Xu Mu’an and asked with a smile.
Xu Mu’an nodded and said, “Yes.”
Xiao Jingting brought a bowl of chicken soup to Xu Mu’an and said, “I cooked chicken soup for you. Drink up.”
Xu Mu’an looked at Xiao Jingting for a long time, sighed lightly, and lowered his head, “You’re not really Xiao Jingting, are you?”
Xiao Jingting was taken aback, calmly placed the chicken soup on the table, and didn’t refute, “How did you figure it out?”
“In fact, it’s easy to see! But I’ve been deceiving myself. A person’s character may gradually change, but it won’t change so drastically overnight. Moreover, the original Xiao Jingting wouldn’t cook, let alone brew wine. You and him are too different…” The original Xiao Jingting was selfish and wouldn’t care about the lives of others.
Xiao Jingting looked at Xu Mu’an, tilted his head, smiled, and asked, “So do you prefer the original Xiao Jingting or me?”
Xu Mu’an lowered his head, silent for a while, and said, “Of course, it’s you.” If Xiao Jingting hadn’t suddenly changed, given the original Xiao Jingting’s personality, their family would soon be ruined. His sons would be sold off, and even if Xiao Jingting wasn’t that bad, with the fines for the abandoned fields, they would still be on a dead-end path.
Xu Mu’an closed his eyes. Regardless of who the person in front of him was or what his motives were, this person was his only salvation.
Xiao Jingting smiled and said, “That’s good.”
“What kind of person are you, and how did you take over Xiao Jingting’s body?” Xu Mu’an asked.
Xiao Jingting looked somewhat puzzled and said, “Take over? I don’t know.”
“You don’t know? Then how did you enter this body?” Xu Mu’an asked.
“I don’t know either! I’m not from your world. I drowned in my own world and woke up as Xiao Jingting. When I entered this body, the original Xiao Jingting seemed to be already dead.” Xiao Jingting said.
Xu Mu’an looked at Xiao Jingting in confusion and said, “Is that so?”
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yeah! I think the original Xiao Jingting probably died from overdosing on Happy Powder1“
Xu Mu’an looked at Xiao Jingting and said, “I don’t know if your situation counts as taking over someone’s body, but you must not tell anyone. This world strictly regulates body takeovers, and once discovered, you will be executed.”
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “I know.”
