Chapter 816 - 816: Reunited!
Su Ji glanced at him, and then at him again after a moment.
The horse galloped quickly, and the wind was so strong that it was hard to open one’s eyes.
The ride was very bumpy, but Prince Huai restrained her tightly.
She didn’t even have to worry about hurting the little guy in her stomach. Regardless of her past life or present life, he was the only one who would never betray her.
His eyes were still filled with paranoia. When he said, “if you make it, I’ll accept it” , his voice was trembling.
He was forcing himself to admit it.
Of course, if the heavens wanted to play a prank on them, they might not be able to catch up.
It was a 50 – 50 chance.
Su Ji listened to his breathing coming from the back of her head. She seemed to be able to hear his heartbeat, and the occasional “lope” was deafening.
Her heart suddenly tightened and her throat became dry.
Time was tight, and she shouldn’t be thinking about this.
However, he was the War God, Prince Huai, who had protected her for a lifetime.
“Why aren’t you talking?” Prince Huai rarely saw her so quiet. “Are you afraid you won’t be able to make it?”
Su Ji smiled. “Prince Huai seems to be very good at naming.” “Slightly better than Your Highness,” he replied. Su Ji’s lips twitched. “Why don’t you come up with a baby name?”
The body that was pressed against her back stiffened.
Prince Huai was extremely intelligent, so he naturally knew what she meant.
But he said angrily, “I don’t have any thoughts.”
Su Ji shrugged.
Bian Tong’s location happened to be the abandoned hospital where Zhou Zicheng kidnapped the plastic surgeon.
It was very quiet here, so it was convenient for the ritual to proceed.
There were only ten minutes left before the auspicious time. He wondered how Su Ji’s preparations were going.
Bian Tong was originally very confident, but he was made anxious by the original owner..
After all, there was only one chance. If there was a slight mistake, it would really be over.
If he had known this would happen, he would have reincarnated earlier. The pressure was so great…
At this moment, the original owner was already standing at the designated Dosition. but she was Dacing back and forth nervouslv.
Bian Tong held a tree branch of moderate thickness in his hand and drew a circle with a radius of one meter around the original owner. “Miss Su, please do not leave the circle.”
The original owner paused. “Ah, okay.”
After agreeing, she continued to pace around, but the area was smaller.
She really didn’t leave the area that Bian Tong had drawn, she just paced back and forth inside.
Bian Tong steadied his mind and continued to draw formations.
Outside the circle, he drew the pattern of the Eight Trigrams. The lines were extremely smooth and curved. He had drawn it many times. The pattern had been imprinted in his mind for thousands of years. Left arc, right arc…
Then, there was only the last stroke left to complete, and it would be a perfect ending.
With a flick of his hand, the branch snapped with a crack.
Bian Tong:
Although this pattern did not have to be drawn in one stroke, it was the first time that a branch had broken after so many attempts. It gave people a bad feeling.
Bian Tong’s eyebrows trembled violently. He picked up another branch, and when he returned, she was still pacing back and forth.
The ground in the circle was almost worn thin by her.
“Ms. Su Ji!” Bian Tong couldn’t take it anymore. “Please be quiet!”
He seriously suspected that the reason why he had not drawn a perfect picture just now was because of her!
“…” The original owner was stunned by his roar, and her mouth was pursed into a wavy line.
She finally stopped in her tracks. “I-I’m sorry…”
She was just too anxious to go back and was afraid that an accident would happen.
But why did he have to shout at her fiercely?
That was why she had to go back!
He was still living a comfortable life in the Great Shang.
After the formation was drawn, Bian Tong placed all the treasures that were used as a primer on the eight corners of the formation. There was only one minute left before the auspicious time…
In the hospital.
Pei Huai sat in front of the hospital bed. Pei Xi flipped through a magazine and occasionally spoke to him. He answered absent-mindedly.
The hour hand on his watch jumped. The auspicious time had arrived…
Pei Xi called him again, but he did not hear it at all.
The auspicious time had arrived. Whether Su Ji could return or not was already a foregone conclusion.
Pei Xi vomited five minutes later. Her head was dizzy and she could not control her vomiting.
That was the side effect of the emergency treatment this morning. Stimulating those acupuncture points could help her recover, but it might cause her to vomit.
Bill came back from buying the cupcakes. When he saw the scene in front of him, he almost threw everything away.
Pei Huai asked the nurse to prepare some things in advance. He gave her some disinfectant water. The ratio was precise and there was no mistake at all.
Pei Xi felt a little better after drinking it. The originally chaotic scene quickly returned to normal under Pei Huai’s orderly handling.
Another half an hour had passed since the auspicious time.
It was about an hour and a half’s drive from the place where the ritual was held to the hospital.
However, if Pei Huai drove, he would only need an hour to arrive.
At this moment, he called Bian Tong, but there was only a system notification.
“I’m sorry, the number you dialed is not available at the moment.”
Pei Huai almost crushed his phone. Pei Xi was drinking lemon-flavored water.
“This water…
She wanted to say, “this water doesn’t taste good” but before she could say it, she noticed his cold and tense expression.
She swallowed hard.
Pei Huai looked at her and her heart tightened. She hurriedly drank two large mouthfuls of water and at the same time, made an expression that the water was really delicious.
Pei Huai retracted his gaze.
Just like that, another half an hour passed.
“Ding!”
The sound of the elevator reaching the floor came from the corridor outside the ward.
The elevator was not close to Pei Xi’s ward, so Pei Huai should not have heard it.
But he did hear it.
And it was clear.
He got up at that moment and took big strides.
Footsteps came from the corridor.
Pei Huai held the door frame with one hand and opened the ward door with the other.
Su Ji, who was outside the door, raised her hand just in time to open the door.
Pei Huai’s eyes locked onto her.
He was trying to distinguish whether she was the original Su Ji or Su Ji.
Her ponytail was tied behind her head, her bag was slung over her shoulders, and her shoelaces were tied neatly. She was still dressed like an obedient girl.
His lips were tightly pursed.
The air froze between the two of them for half a minute.
“Su Ji is here?” In the ward, Pei Xi tilted her head and looked over. Her voice broke the silence.
Then, Su Ji raised her hand and brushed her hair.
Pei Huai looked at her actions and heard her cold and smiling voice. “Where’s the baby? I want to see my goddaughter!”
She was Su Ji, not the original.
Pei Huai came back to life.
Su Ji looked at him. Both of their eyes were bloodshot.
They were reunited.
The moment before Su Ji left, Prince Huai said it.
“Tangyuan.”
“What?”
Tangyuan was small and cute.
The outer layer was white, but the inside was filled with black sesame.
Like him, and like her.
Tangyuan, the name he gave…
