Chapter 40: Chapter 40 Feeling Especially Happy_1

Dugu Zixi’s statement, not to mention Sun Datong’s disbelief, even the old patriarch of the Dugu Family and other members of the Dugu Family were skeptical.

But Dugu Zixi refused to speak further, what could you do to him?

Once Dugu Zixi confirmed his full recovery, he became even more eager to see Shen Tianxing again.

He stood up and, with a faint smile toward the old patriarch, his parents, and other relatives, said, "Grandfather, grandmother, dad, mom, and aunt, Dean Sun has said that I am completely healed. You all can rest assured now, can’t you? I’m still a bit tired and would like to retire to my room to rest."

The moment the old patriarch saw Dugu Zixi’s haste to return to his room, he waved his hand, saying indulgently, "Go ahead, you’ve just recovered. Have a good rest, and we’ll talk after you’ve had enough rest."

As for Dugu Zixi, apart from being the Dugu Family’s sole scion, what mattered most was his high intelligence; he was extremely clever and well-versed in numerous subjects at a young age.

Moreover, Dugu Zixi was born with the ability to foresee good and bad fortune.

In the past decade, this ability of Dugu Zixi’s had allowed the Dugu Family to avoid numerous disasters, which was another reason why, aside from being the sole heir, he was held in high regard by everyone in the Dugu Family.

Of course, such a special ability of Dugu Zixi’s was only known to his closest family members; outsiders were absolutely unaware of it, as there was a fear that awareness could bring trouble upon him.

As the saying goes, a tall tree catches the wind, and it’s cold at the top.

Even though the Dugu Family now wielded immense power and stood atop Shenzhou Country, there were times when they too felt fear.

The Dugu Family had a controlling or influential stake in many industries, which, to certain individuals with ulterior motives, made them as appealing as a piece of savory braised pork belly.

The sparsely populated Dugu Family seemed to signal to these people that by eliminating the Dugu Family’s sole heir, the family would have no one to continue its legacy, and these scheming individuals could then obtain what they desired.

So, these people closely monitored the Dugu Family from the shadows, waiting for an opportunity to carve out their share of this "fatty meat."

Every step the old patriarch and the rest of the Dugu Family took, every decision they made, was more cautious, to avoid giving others a handle to grasp, leaving disasters that would make them a target in others’ eyes.

Now that Dugu Zixi’s health had greatly improved, the old patriarch and the rest of the Dugu Family breathed a sigh of relief.

But at the same time, they needed to step up the protection around Dugu Zixi.

After all, Dugu Zixi’s health recovery was something many people did not wish to see.

Those individuals would not target a Dugu Zixi who was on the brink of death, posing no threat.

But for a Dugu Zixi with high intelligence and good health, they would certainly try every means to harm him, to cause his untimely death.

Thinking of this, the old patriarch said seriously to everyone present, "Dean Sun, and all of you, I hope you can keep the matter of Zixi’s recovery confidential, and not let it leak. Can you do that?"

Sun Datong and the members of the Dugu Family knew the importance of this and all pledged they would keep it a secret!

Of course, they also knew that the news of Dugu Zixi’s recovery would eventually get out, but delaying it by even a day was beneficial.

As long as they could wait until Dugu Zixi had fully grown up, they wouldn’t have to worry about him anymore.

Dugu Zixi was still too young, not yet of age, and his family members had to be extra cautious in protecting him.

Sun Datong, upon learning of the existence of such a Divine Doctor whom he couldn’t meet, left the Dugu Family feeling sullen.

But in his heart, he couldn’t forget about it, the Divine Doctor, and he was determined to build a rapport with Dugu Zixi to locate them.

Not only did Sun Datong think this, but even the Dugu patriarch and the others, after the outsiders like Sun Datong had left, gathered again to discuss the matter.

The final conclusion was that anyone who could easily cure Dugu Zixi was certainly no ordinary person, and they must make a point to befriend them, avoiding any offense at all costs!

In the future, no matter what kind of support Dugu Zixi needed, everyone from the Dugu Family must provide their full support!

Shen Tianxing naturally also realized that after she had cured Dugu Zixi, she would definitely attract a lot of attention.

But to her, Master was too important, immeasurably so.

For her Master, even if she had to make an enemy of the entire world, she would not hesitate.

Besides, it was just a small commotion, and Shen Tianxing was completely confident that even if there were any setbacks, she could handle them.

When she woke up and found that Dugu Zixi had vanished, she instantly felt an immense sense of loss.

Releasing her Divine Sense, she searched the Lifespace again, and upon confirming that Dugu Zixi had left the space, Shen Tianxing could only sigh softly.

She knew that her Master had been reincarnated in Capital City, but she didn’t know where in Capital City. Had she known he would leave so quickly, she would have asked him for his address and phone number first.

However, she had mentioned the Lifespace to her Master before. She just wondered if he would remember it? If he would come back in?

As Shen Tianxing was thinking this, she saw the figure of Dugu Zixi appear out of nowhere in front of her.

Seeing that he had indeed entered the Lifespace again, and seeing the Shen Tianxing he had been longing for, Dugu Zixi cast aside his usual restraint and reserve, and with a sweeping gesture, embraced Shen Tianxing tightly, excitedly whispering in her ear, "Little Xingxing, I almost thought I would never see you again."

Shen Tianxing’s face flushed with a hint of shyness at his embrace.

This lifetime’s Master was far cuter than the one in her past life.

Although her Master in the previous life would indulge her unconditionally, granting her every wish by any means necessary,

Shen Tianxing could clearly feel her Master’s affection and care, but whenever she showed a touch more intimacy toward him, he would keep his distance, using the gentlest yet most cruel way to refuse her heart’s approach.

At that time, Shen Tianxing both loved and hated her Master.

He showered her with care and affection, so why did he reject her?

Shen Tianxing could never understand it.

She had bluntly asked her Master this question several times, and only after a few inquiries did he finally respond with resignation, "Between us, there is only the bond of Master and disciple, no marital fate. People who are not meant to be married should not be together!"

At that moment, Shen Tianxing felt her heart shatter into pieces.

But this life’s Master, without any initiative from her, approached her on his own.

Shen Tianxing felt especially, exceptionally blissful.

Perhaps, as Master had said before, heaven had arranged for them both to descend to the mortal world, to be reborn and live anew, all just to bring them together.

Dugu Zixi hugged Shen Tianxing for a while before finally letting her go, eagerly asking her, "Xiaoxing, which city are you living in now? I’ll come to find you, is that okay?"
