After sharing a body with her husband

Xie Yan'an frowned, deep in thought.

"I was riding a horse past the cliff when the horse suddenly got spooked and charged straight down the cliff. I tried to jump off to save myself, but my foot got caught."

He was still dragged off the cliff by the horse, but fortunately, the cliff was covered with dense bushes and many branches cushioned his fall, allowing him to narrowly escape death.

"But hitting your head on a rock is almost a death sentence."

Even now, Old Madam Wei still feels lingering fear when she talks about it.

Xie Yan'an looked puzzled. "Why does Mother ask that? Have you found out something?"

Old Madam Wei shook her head.

"We investigated, but couldn't find anything suspicious. We even had the coroner examine the horse's body thoroughly, but they found nothing. All signs indicate that it was just an accident, but..."

Old Madam Wei's intensely turbulent and complex emotions

"But a lingering doubt remains in my heart. My son's horsemanship is the most superb; how could he have made a mistake? And why did he have to make a mistake in such a dangerous place as a cliff?"

Xie Yan'an's expression turned serious.

"Not only was the mother suspicious, but even the son was suspicious. The incident happened too suddenly and too quickly. If there was anything strange about it, it must be related to the horse..."

Xie Yan'an's brow twitched, and he looked at Old Madam Wei.

"If it was murder, who would Mother believe was responsible?"

"I won't lie to you, during the time you were in trouble, I had a lot of wild thoughts and doubted almost everyone around you. I even wanted to kill the villains myself."

You are a kind person and have never offended anyone. If there are any conflicts, they are all related to the mine. People die for money, birds die for food.

After much thought, Old Madam Wei concluded that if the person behind this had ulterior motives, it must be for the jade mine.

Xie Yan'an tapped his fingertips lightly.

"Mother, if I can stay in my body until tomorrow, take me to find the horse's carcass. I want to see it with my own eyes."

"Okay, ever since your accident, the family has been worried about you every single day. Your father is seriously ill and talks incoherently all day long, your eldest brother rarely smiles, and Heng-ge and the others come every few days to ask how your uncle is recovering."

Old Madam Wei wiped away her tears; her eyes were sore and painful, but she was indeed smiling.

"Now, your mother only hopes that your soul can return completely."

Upon hearing this, Xie Yan'an was also in a bad mood.

That night, Xie Yan'an didn't sleep, and Old Madam Wei was even less inclined to sleep. She insisted on staying by Xie Yan'an's side, unwilling to doze off for even a moment. Xie Yan'an couldn't persuade her otherwise, and there was nothing he could do.

Since they weren't sleeping, the mother and son talked all night long.

When Old Madam Wei heard Xie Yan'an say that he occasionally used Shang Lingjun's body to do things, she was extremely shocked.

Only then did she realize that the person who had been massaging her was not Shang Lingjun, but her son Yan Ge'er;

Only then did I realize that the person Shang Lingjun spoke to on the night she was framed by the Qu family at Puji Temple was also Yan Ge'er. No wonder he was able to use the Binding Immortal Rope to catch the villain and also knew the self-defense techniques she taught him.

Only then did she realize that the person who won the horse race at the Spring Festival banquet that day was not Shang Lingjun, but her Yan Ge'er. No wonder she felt that Shang Lingjun's riding posture that day was very familiar.

Only then did I understand why Ati took care of Yan Ge'er so personally, and always chatted with him until midnight...

Old Madam Wei was deeply moved; it turned out that Ati had been secretly saving her son all along…

……

The next day, Shang Lingjun slept until 1:15 AM, when sunlight streamed into the room and onto the bed.

"Aozhi..."

Shang Lingjun opened her sleepy eyes, her mind still foggy. When she saw the bed curtains of a different color, her eyes widened suddenly. This was not her Qixia Pavilion!

She sat up abruptly, clutching her head, her mind going blank. Oh no, what was she doing last night?

Why is her head spinning?

Oh, right, it's the night of the full moon on the fifteenth!

To bolster her courage, she drank a couple of sips of wine, and then her body was taken over by Huo Chuan. Huo Chuan went to test whether their guesses were true. Where was he? Had he gone into Xie Yan'an's body again?

[Chuan Chuan? Huo Chuan! Are you still there?]

No matter how much Shang Lingjun called out in his mind, there was no response.

Huo Chuan has left?

Shang Lingjun looked around the room again. Oh no, why was she all alone in this room?

Where is Xie Yan'an?

She didn't even have time to put on her shoes; she rummaged through under the bed and in the wardrobe.

Where could Xie Yan'an, such a grown man, go?

Oh no, will that bastard Huo Chuan run away after getting Xie Yan'an's body?

It's over! It's over!

Just as Shang Lingjun was in a state of utter distress, a voice suddenly rang out from behind her.

"What are you looking for?"

Xie Yan'an stood with his arms crossed, leaning against the doorframe, a nonchalant smile playing on his lips.

"what!"

Shang Lingjun was so startled she almost jumped up on the spot. When she turned around and saw Xie Yan'an, her eyes widened in shock.

Then, in a fit of anger, she strode over to him, slapped him on the arm, and whispered:

"You scared me to death! Why are you running around like that?"

Then, Shang Lingjun peeked into the doorway, looking nervous.

"Has anyone seen you? If they find out Xie Yan'an is awake now, that would be a real problem!"

"What's the trouble? I'm awake, isn't that a good thing?"

Xie Yan'an found it strange that she looked so worried, as if everything was on edge.

Shang Lingjun clicked her tongue.

"Of course it's troublesome. We haven't even coordinated yet, and you don't even know many people in the Xie family. What if we say something wrong?"

Shang Lingjun looked Xie Yan'an up and down, her eyes gradually brightening.

"Chuan Chuan, I must say, you really enjoy using this body. It seems our guess was right. The key was the full moon night. By the way, what happened last night?"

She looked up at Xie Yan'an with a mixture of confusion and composure, waiting for his answer.

Xie Yan'an's brow twitched; he sensed something was amiss.

"do not you remember?"

Shang Lingjun rubbed her temples, looking quite troubled, and said:

"I just remember I was drunk, and then Xie Yan'an seemed to sit up. It must have been because you successfully entered his body, and then that was it."

She hissed, "My head feels stuffy. I'm never drinking again."

Xie Yan'an placed his hand on her forehead to check; she didn't have a fever, so it seemed she was just feeling dizzy from a hangover.

Then he was relieved.

"It's nothing, you just pounced on me, hugged me and kissed me like crazy, saying you'd make me last longer this time."

He always wanted to tease her.

Xie Yan'an spread his hands, "So it's still here."

Then, Xie Yan'an smiled and pulled her into his arms.

"Thank you so much, Ati."

He greedily craved the warmth of her neck and couldn't resist nuzzling her. This moment of bliss was a long-cherished dream he had cherished.

He could finally hold her in his arms openly and legitimately.

Shang Lingjun froze, her cheeks flushing bright red. What...what?

Hugging him and kissing him passionately?

Really? Would she hug and kiss Huo Chuan?

Is this really something she would do?

Wait... what are they doing?

Is Huo Chuan hugging her?

Shang Lingjun's eyes trembled rapidly, and she even tried to keep her breathing as still as possible.

Her mind was already clouded by the alcohol, and she hadn't quite processed what was happening earlier. Now, nestled in the man's broad embrace, Xie Yan'an's body still carried a faint, pleasant medicinal scent.

The texture feels so realistic.

This is a real man.

It's Huo Chuan...

Huo Chuan is holding her?

Shang Lingjun's cheeks inexplicably flushed...
