Chapter 122: Chapter 122 Minmin

It was already past four when Xia Tian returned with his wife, Wang Shan, and their daughter, Minmin. They gave their greetings to grandfather and grandmother Xia.

"Auntie," Minmin pounced into Xia Yue’s arms as soon as she saw her, sweetly calling out to her.

"Minmin darling, I haven’t seen you for a while. You’re getting cuter," Xia Yue immediately beamed, hugging her and said.

"Minmin, greet grandfather and grandmother," Xia Tian and Wang Shan greeted old man Xia and his wife first, then sweetly called out to Minmin who was in Xia Yue’s arms.

Xia Yue let Minmin down so she could go greet grandfather and grandmother more properly.

"Hello, grandfather and grandmother! Minmin came to visit you," Xia Ruomin cooed.

"Hello, Minmin," The elderly couple naturally loved their great-granddaughter even more.

"Where are the uncles and aunts?" Xia Tian asked.

"Hello, uncle two, uncle three, aunt five, aunt six, little uncle," Xia Ruomin looked at Xia Yu and the others with a sweet smile.

"Hello, Minmin." The uncles and aunts doted on the youngest in the family. Not to mention, this little lady was far from being mischievous.

"Minmin, can you come over here for a bit?" Xia Xi called out to Minmin with a smile.

"Aunt six," Xia Ruomin felt a bit foreign around this new aunt but found her attractive and quite likable.

"Has anyone given you anything lately?" Xia Xi asked in a soft voice.

"Something?" Xia Ruomin looked at her puzzled.

The others gave Xia Xi inquisitive looks, not understanding why she asked this question.

"[This little one is carrying something harmful. It’s around her neck. If it stays there for a few more days, she’ll be in bad shape.]" As Xia Yue was puzzling over the situation, the system’s voice suddenly resonated in her mind.

"Minmin, is there something around your neck?" Xia Yue immediately inquired.

Upon hearing Xia Yue’s question, Xia Xi promptly reached out to Minmin’s neck where she found a red string with a jade pendant attached to it.

"An auntie gave this to me. She said it would bring peace," Xia Ruomin giggled as she watched Xia Xi pull the red string from around her neck.

"Ghost Heart Curse, so ruthless." Xia Xi recognized the problem within the pendant almost instantly, her eyes flashed with ruthlessness, before focusing on not scaring the little girl.

"What are you talking about, Xi? We got this when we visited Baima Temple. Someone gave it to Minmin, saying it was fated to be hers," Wang Shan stated.

"Ghost Heart Curse. They’re using Minmin’s life to ward off their fatal disaster. Thankfully, we discovered it early. Or else, it would’ve been too late in a few days," Xia Xi explained.

"What?!" Grandfather Xia and the others were shocked to hear Xia Xi’s words.

"Quickly, take off the red string now," alarmed, Wang Shan rushed over intending to remove the red string.

"The malevolent energy has already entered Minmin’s body. There’s only a bit left in the pendant. Even if you take it off now, it won’t help," spoke Xia Xi.

"Then what should we do now?" Wang Shan looked at Xia Xi, in this moment she did not care about the truth. So long as her child was safe, that was all that mattered. If it was true, and they didn’t deal with it immediately, what if something went wrong later?

Xia Xi took a jade amulet from her pocket, glanced at Grandfather Xia and said, "Grandfather, it seems I’ll have to delay giving you your gift. This jade amulet needs to be used now."

"Yes, yes, yes, use it for Minmin first," Grandfather Xia quickly understood that this jade amulet was supposed to be his birthday present, but saving a life was far more important now. The gift could wait.
