Song Jingchen didn’t know what to feel and didn’t refute.

Shen Yijia quickly signaled Lin Shao to bring them inside.

“Have you gotten a doctor to treat Father An?” Shen Yijia asked.

Song Jingchen nodded and said, “The situation isn’t very good.”

In fact, it would be difficult for him to live through the night.

Shen Yijia glanced at him and wanted to say something, but Song Jingchen guessed what she was going to say and said in a low voice, “No.”

He didn’t want Shen Yijia to risk exposing her secret for the sake of an outsider.

Moreover, he did not know how Shen Yijia saved him. If her body was damaged in the process or someone noticed something was amiss, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Shen Yijia choked and stammered, “If anything happens to Father An, Brother Hao will be traumatized in the future. Besides… I’m responsible for this.”

“You…”

“It’s alright, leave it to me.” Shen Yijia didn’t let Song Jingchen continue.

Previously, she had wanted to test the effect of this level-two spiritual liquid for Father An, but Song Jingchen stopped her. She didn’t expect that she would still have to use it on him because of this incident.

She turned around and went to the kitchen. Shen Yijia scooped some flour into a bowl and dripped a drop of spiritual liquid into it.

After some thought, she mixed in some brown sugar and kneaded the flour mixed with spiritual liquid and brown sugar into the size of a pill. She brought it to the side of the stove to dry it. It really looked like a medicinal pill.

Song Jingchen watched her from the kitchen door. Although he didn’t see what she had added, he knew that she had a plan and didn’t object.

Shen Yijia rushed to the An family with the pills and told them that it was a life-saving medicine given by an expert.

Auntie Tian was unwilling at first, but An Dong forced her to let Father An take the pill.

Shen Yijia waited for a while. Seeing that she had nothing to do, she went home.

She went to see Sister Huan first. She was already awake, but she was still a little weak. When she saw Shen Yijia enter, Sister Huan’s eyes immediately turned red. “Sister-in-law!”

“Alright, I’m here. It’s fine. Father An is fine too. Don’t be afraid.” Shen Yijia pulled her into her arms.

“Really?” Sister Huan asked in a choked voice, her tone filled with hope.

Shen Yijia scratched her nose. “What do you think? When have I ever lied to you?”

Sister Huan felt a little better. She frowned and said uncertainly, “Sister-in-law… Actually, I felt like someone hit my leg with something when we were by the river, but when Brother Hao and the others came over, they said that they didn’t see anyone. I don’t know if I’m hallucinating.”

When Shen Yijia heard this, she also felt that Sister Huan might have been hallucinating. It was broad daylight. If there was really someone else there, why didn’t Brother Hao and Lin Miaomiao see him? She comforted her and said, “It’s all in the past. Even if there’s bad people around, I can chase them away.”

After coaxing Sister Huan, she made her drink a cup of water mixed with spiritual liquid before letting her rest again.

After returning to the house, Song Jingchen sat by the window, thinking about something.

“Father An will be fine,” Shen Yijia said firmly, thinking that he was worried about this.

Besides, it was useless to worry about the situation when they had already done what they could.

Song Jingchen looked back at her and suddenly asked, “Are you going to leave?”

The more mysterious Shen Yijia was, the more he felt that this person did not belong to this world. She was clearly very close to him, but he inexplicably felt that this person seemed so out of reach.

He was always worried that she would disappear and he wouldn’t be able to find her again.
