So it seems that Xiaoshanzi still remembers her.

It was worth it for her to risk jumping out of the window to treat him.

A slight smile appeared on Bai Su's face.

It's just not obvious.

Pei Wenyan glanced at her, his handsome brows furrowing slightly.

"What does 'not mentally unstable' mean?"

"It's nothing, you'll see when we meet."

It's perfectly normal that Pei Wenyan doesn't recognize her.

It would be a miracle if I recognized her.

She passed away unexpectedly before Xiaoshanzi was even married.

She even thought that Xiaoshanzi's taciturn personality meant he might never be able to find a wife in his life.

I can't believe I have a grandson now, and he's already so big.

Bai Su's gaze towards Pei Wenyan softened.

Pei Wenyan felt that something was wrong with him all over.

"Don't look at me like that, I don't like it," Pei Wenyan said with a dark face.

It felt like I was being treated like a child.

"Oh." Bai Su looked away.

Pei Wenyan then asked, "Last time, when you ran away... before you left... you said that my grandfather wasn't sick, but poisoned?"

"That's right."

When Pei Yuanshan's "illness" was mentioned, Bai Su became serious and said, "The poison he is suffering from doesn't have a precise name yet. People in the south like to call it 'Huanhuan Xuanhui'."

"A gentle, mysterious glow?"

"Xuanhui means the sun. If you are poisoned by this, you will die slowly, rather than quickly. You will gradually lose sight of the sun, hence the name 'slowly Xuanhui'."

Pei Wenyan sneered, "To give a poison such a refined-sounding name is truly laughable!"

He suddenly looked at her coldly: "How do you know about this poison?"

"I am learned and talented."

"Oh."

"Instead of laughing at me sometimes, you should use that time to investigate how Xiaoshanzi was poisoned and who poisoned him."

Pei Wenyan frowned.

"What, you little brat? How dare you disrespect my grandfather?"

Bai Su pinched the bridge of her nose: "Alright, I know you're filial. Since you're so filial, you should know that I saved your grandfather's life, so I can call him whatever I want."

"..."

There was no way to refute it.

"I'll find out, but it's best if this has nothing to do with you! Otherwise... you should know the consequences."

He reasonably suspected that Bai Su's appearance at such an opportune time, and her efforts to cure the old man's illness, might be a case of "giving before taking".

It's not impossible to gain benefits by creating trouble for others first and then taking action to resolve it.

Moreover, the old man has always been kind to others and has done countless acts of charity. He has never made any enemies, so he cannot imagine who would want to harm him.

The girl in front of me, however, seemed strange in every way.

Bai Su sighed and stopped wasting words with Pei Wenyan.

It's because both of her encounters with Pei Wenyan ended badly, and both times they even came to blows.

It's normal for the other party to suspect her.

Both of them fell silent.

Fortunately, the car arrived at the central hospital quickly.

Pei Wenyan kept a close eye on her the whole way, as if afraid she would run away, or as if afraid she would come up with some other trick.

Bai Su was helpless.

We arrived at the ward quickly.

As soon as the door opened, Bai Su saw Pei Yuanshan sitting on the bed.

He had been taken off the ventilator, but his face still looked very pale, and he looked like a patient at first glance.

At that moment, he was lost in thought, fiddling with something in his hand with his head down.

Bai Su looked down and saw the conch pendant.

A sudden pang of sadness welled up in her eyes.

"Dad, I've found the person," Pei Wenyan said at this moment.

Pei Yuanshan turned his head in surprise, saw Bai Su, and his expression froze for a moment.

Before he could speak, Bai Su said, "Xiao Shanzi, it's me... After all these years, do you still keep that two-cent junk? Throw it away, and I'll buy you something better in the future."

Pei Yuanshan's eyes widened suddenly. He stared at Bai Su for only two seconds before suddenly getting off the bed and stumbling towards her.

Pei Wenyan was afraid that the old man would fall, so he went to help him up, but the old man, with a strength he didn't know he came from, pushed him away and then knelt heavily in front of Bai Su.

"Master!"

Bai Su's tears welled up in her eyes, and she gently touched Pei Yuanshan's head.

"Xiaoshanzi, you've gotten old, your hair is all white." Her voice was choked with emotion.

Pei Wenyan stood to the side, looking as if he had seen a ghost, and then a surge of anger rose in his heart.

There's a limit to lying!

He grabbed Bai Su's hand, which was touching the old man's hand.

"How dare you lie to my grandfather like that! You're asking for it!"

"Pei Wenyan! Let go of me!"

The old man was furious.

He quickly got up from the ground and slapped Pei Wenyan across the face.

Pei Wenyan was stunned by the slap, and subconsciously let go of Bai Su's hand.

"Grandpa...you hit me? You...hit me for a liar?"

"What liar! She's your ancestor!"

"What ancestor? Grandpa, look closely, this woman isn't even older than me, how could she be an ancestor? You're delirious from your illness, I'll go call the doctor right now..."

"You're not allowed to go! I can't mistake her for someone else; she is the Ancestor!"

It can't be wrong!

That tone, that form of address, that look in his eyes...

Furthermore, only he and his master knew that the conch shell was a souvenir that his master had bought for him at the beach for two cents.

There's no mistake, she is my master!

"Grandpa, I think you've really gone mad..."

Pei Wenyan suppressed his anger.

He really wanted to have Bai Su dragged out, but he was afraid of angering the old man.

The doctor said that it's crucial to keep the old man's emotions stable.

He dared not provoke his grandfather any further, and said seriously, "I checked, she's still a few months shy of eighteen. No matter how powerful our ancestor was, she's still human, not a god. It's impossible for her to stay young all these years. Besides, she doesn't look like our ancestor in the photo at all."

He had seen photos of his ancestors.

She is a very beautiful and elegant woman.

Bai Su looks nothing like her ancestor.

"Shut up! I'm not confused, you're the one who's confused! I might mistake you for someone else, but I would never mistake our ancestors!"

Pei Wenyan was so angry that he choked and couldn't speak for a moment.

Over there, Grandpa Pei was already apologizing to Bai Su.

"I'm sorry, Master, please forgive this unfilial descendant."

Bai Su nodded gently: "How could I blame a junior? Go back to bed quickly, you can't get agitated."

Grandpa Pei obediently returned to his hospital bed.

Bai Su took his pulse, asking about his condition while checking his pulse.

My physical condition has indeed improved a lot, but there are still many residual toxins that need to be cleared, and I need to detoxify at least three more times.

"Have you been feeling unwell anywhere else these past couple of days?"

Old Master Pei stared at her, refusing to look away.

"I feel perfectly fine, no discomfort whatsoever..."

"You're lying again." Bai Su sighed and said, "The residual poison in your body hasn't been cleared out yet. You'll definitely feel dizzy, have palpitations, and sometimes feel like you can't breathe these days, right?"

Old Master Pei nodded guiltily: "It happens occasionally."

Bai Su said helplessly, "You're still the same as before. You never tell me if you're feeling unwell or have suffered any injustice. You used to be the thinnest among your fellow students. Once, a colleague from the research institute caused you to fall and break two ribs. I didn't even realize it until your ribs had almost healed..."

Old Master Pei's lips trembled as he said, "I was afraid you'd worry..."

"I could let it go before, but I can't do that now. You're getting old, and you absolutely can't tough it out if you're not feeling well."

"Yes... Master."

"Does your knee still hurt on rainy days like before?"

Old Master Pei wanted to keep it a secret, but seeing his master's serious expression, he decided to nod.

"Yes, it will."

"This means the fluid buildup in your knee hasn't gone away after all these years. Why didn't you go to the hospital to get it checked out? Western medicine is so advanced these days, there must be a way to fix it."

"I don't like coming to the hospital..."

"Was it because I suddenly developed a high fever that scared you, that you still have a phobia of hospitals?"

"Yes……"

Pei Wenyan listened in stunned silence.

He knew nothing about these things, so how did this woman know?

Just how many secrets did she investigate in their family?

Bai Su said, "Now that I'm back, I'll take care of your health gradually. Things are different now; I have plenty of time to treat your illnesses."

"Thank you, Master."

Pei Yuanshan nodded, finally unable to contain his curiosity, and asked, "Master, how did you become like this? Back then... we all watched you being buried."

Bai Su recounted her experience of being reborn.

There were only Pei Wenyan and Pei Yuanshan in the ward, so she wasn't worried about the secret being leaked.

"My memory is stuck at the testing site. After I saved that child... then the explosion happened, and I lost consciousness. I felt like my whole body was being submerged in a black sea."

"When I opened my eyes again, I was indeed in a sea, but it was a blue sea."

"I saw a boy who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old struggling in the sea, so I swam over and saved him."

"Then, back on shore, I met Little White."

"She immediately scolded me for risking my life to save someone in the sea, saying I should have gone to find an adult first."

"It was at that time that I learned that I had become Bai Su, Xiao Bai's granddaughter."

Pei Yuanshan was surprised to hear this, yet he also felt it made perfect sense.

His master knew a little about the I Ching and Qimen Dunjia, and she had also revealed to him that she was born with a god-level talent system.

Perhaps it was those mystical arts that saved my master, or maybe it was that system...

The latter is more likely.

In short, Master has been reborn.

She was reborn as the granddaughter of her senior sister.

"Senior Sister...where is she now? Did she come to the capital with you?"

Bai Su paused for two seconds and then said, "She passed away."

Pei Yuanshan's tears rolled down his cheeks, and he cried like a child.

They mourned the death of their eldest sister, but were also happy for their master's rebirth.

"I know nothing about any of this... I only heard from my grandson that someone saved me, and that person said he had a name, Song Shiyi. I've been trying to find this person ever since, and I never imagined that this person would actually be you, Master..."

Bai Su said, "After I came to the capital, I've been trying to find you and your fellow disciples. But my current identity is too ordinary. Even if I knew your identities, finding your addresses and getting close to you would be as difficult as climbing to the sky. Fortunately, I had good luck and ran into someone who looked exactly like you in the mall..."
