Chapter 779

Qiao Muting strode over with his long legs, his pace leisurely.

Shu Xia nodded, "Mm, much better. Applying medicine every day, it shouldn't leave a scar."

Although injuries were nothing compared to one's life, she was a girl after all, and she cared about her appearance; if scars were left on her forehead or hands, it would certainly affect her looks.

Before Shu Xia could finish speaking, she was swept up into Qiao Muting's arms.

"I asked the doctor, marital relations are allowed."

"What did you say?" Shu Xia was thunderstruck, looking at Qiao Muting in disbelief.

He! Went! To! Ask! The! Doctor!

She had a follow-up appointment at the hospital tomorrow, how was she supposed to go!

Before she could think about these things, Qiao Muting had already placed her on the bed.

His warm breath fell against her lips, "Focus."

Matters in the bedroom had been led by Qiao Muting from the very beginning; in this regard, he was so overbearing and dominant that one could not refuse him.

Shu Xia had no time or energy all night to think about how to go to the hospital tomorrow.

She drifted and sank several times.

It only ended when she was completely drained of strength.

As she couldn't stop trembling, Shu Xia asked him in a daze, unable to control herself: "Have you fallen in love with me?"

A drop of sweat fell onto the corner of her eye; he pulled her into his embrace, feeling her tremors, and asked in return: "What did you just ask me?"

Shu Xia gradually regained consciousness and shook her head weakly, "Nothing."

"I'll carry you to wash up." Qiao Muting didn't continue to ask, and just like every time it ended, he carried Shu Xia to wash up.

Shu Xia responded with a lazy "mm."

When they came out after washing up, Shu Xia didn't feel very sleepy.

Qiao Muting didn't feel very sleepy either.

Shu Xia sensed that Qiao Muting seemed to have something to say.

Sure enough, Qiao Muting spoke up, "Grandmother felt quite unwell when she went back to the Ancestral Residence this time. She used to get sick easily when she went there before, but this time the feeling was even more intense than before."

Shu Xia immediately asked: "Did Grandmother say where she felt unwell? Did she see a doctor?"

"There is a family doctor, but they didn't see any problems. They guessed it was fatigue from the several-hour car ride, but I feel it's not quite normal," Qiao Muting said in a low voice.

Shu Xia couldn't lie still anymore, "Did you go to the hospital after returning?"

Qiao Nainai's health was already poor to begin with; if there was any situation, they had to go to the hospital as soon as possible.

"We went to the hospital first, don't worry. Grandmother felt much better after leaving the Ancestral Residence," Qiao Muting said.

Shu Xia breathed a sigh of relief, "She felt much better after leaving the Ancestral Residence?"

Alarm bells rang in her heart.

Almost as if they shared a telepathic connection, Qiao Muting took out his phone, "This is a video I had someone take of the Ancestral Residence. Almost every corner was filmed. Do you have the energy to watch it?"

The words "have the energy" left Shu Xia speechless for a moment. After rolling her eyes at him, she tapped her index finger to play it.

There were some sounds on the screen, and one could see some people.

However, Shu Xia's attention was not on these people, but on the ornaments and decorations in every place.

The Ancestral Residence was very large.

Almost every place had been seen.

However, two rooms were not recorded.

"These two rooms weren't recorded," Shu Xia said.

Qiao Muting nodded, "Those two rooms belong to Great Uncle and Fourth Uncle; they don't allow anyone to enter their rooms usually."

"There's nothing wrong with the places that appeared in the video." Shu Xia could be certain of this.

Qiao Muting frowned, "If there is something that shouldn't be there, it should be in their rooms, but they show no abnormalities."

"That is indeed the case. Is it really just a coincidence?" Shu Xia couldn't figure it out either.

Moreover, the Qiaojia Zuzhai looked perfectly normal.

It was a place with excellent Feng Shui.

It was even better than the Laozhai where Qiao Nainai lived.

In such a place, an Evil Object generally cannot exert much influence.

If Qiao Nainai felt unwell just by going back, an Evil Object capable of causing this level of harm could not possibly have no effect on the other members of the Qiao Family.

But according to Qiao Muting's account, the other members of the Qiao Family should all be fine.
