deadly mantra

Chapter 523 Do you really want to ask me this?
Mrs. Ji stopped talking, and Ji Fanyin stopped talking.

The surroundings were quiet, and the patrolling footsteps could be faintly heard outside the wall.

In silence, Mrs. Ji pressed her temples with her hands. She was tired and pale and sickly. In a short period of time, she seemed to have aged ten years. She mustered up her energy and continued chatting sentence by sentence:
"Have I ever asked, what do your parents do?"

Ji Fanyin smiled and answered truthfully:

"With all due respect, madam, we can count on one hand the number of times we have met, and our relationship is not so familiar that we can chat about everyday things."

Upon hearing this, Madam Ji not only did not show an unhappy expression, but instead smiled kindly:

"I blame me for asking too late. So, what do your parents do?"

Ji Fanyin was visibly stunned for a moment, wondering which drama she was acting in. She thought about it and replied:

"Bao Simu should have told you that I am an orphan."

Mrs. Ji smiled at her:
"That's what Simu said, I want to hear it from you."

Ji Fanyin said with rare seriousness:
"I was very naughty when I was a child. My father said there was nothing wrong with that. But when I tried to behave, he threw me out of the house."

Mrs. Ji asked in disbelief:

"Why? Are there such parents?"

Ji Fanyin shrugged and said without emotion:
"If I knew why, I wouldn't be sitting here."

Mrs. Ji asked again:
"Where is your mother? What kind of person is she?" Ji Fanyin tilted her head and took a deep look at Mrs. Ji:
"You really want to ask me this question?"

Mrs. Ji:
"Can't this question be asked?"

Ji Fanyin shook her head gently:
"Not at all."

However, it was a bit ironic for Mrs. Ji to ask this question.

Ji Fanyin showed a bright smile and said:

"Now is not the time. I will answer your question later. Madam, why do you suddenly ask me these questions?"

Hearing the sound, Mrs. Ji's eyes were covered with mist, like a lost child, a little confused and a little sad. She looked at Ji Fanyin's too clear eyes and said:
"...I don't know why, but the first time I saw you, I felt very kind and familiar. When I woke up, Divine Doctor Mu said that you were here too, and I suddenly wanted to see you. You and Divine Doctor Mu Are you familiar?"

Ji Fanyin:
"We are not familiar with each other. For some reasons, we are just living together temporarily."

"Really?" Madam Ji lowered her eyes, covering up the sadness in her eyes: "Mr. Mu seems to be aloof and cold, and not easy to get close to, but Simu said that she felt that Ming Physician was very kind when they first met and wanted to be her. Sisters... they are very close to each other, maybe it's God's will. After thinking about it for a long time, I plan to accept Miracle Doctor Mu as my god-granddaughter. She has been wandering alone for so many years, so she deserves a family to stop and rest. "

"That's it." Ji Fanyin suddenly smiled: "The old lady called me here because she wanted to know more about Divine Doctor Mu through me, right? However, the old lady may be disappointed. I know Feng Xiaoyao better than Divine Doctor Mu. Other than that, I don’t know much about anyone else, so I probably can’t help you much. I only know that Dr. Mu is very good at healing, but the rest...well, I don’t know.”

Her reaction of immediately disowning the relationship made Mrs. Ji laugh again and again:
"You girl, you are really... Hehehe, why are you panicking? Although our Ji Mansion has encountered some troubles recently, it cannot shake the status and influence of our Ji Mansion in Chixia Country. In the future, Miracle Doctor Mu will become my subordinate. My granddaughter is bound to fawn over her people, so it would be better if you just say a few words and keep your relationship with her clean. Before, I felt that you seemed to be very repulsive to the Ji Mansion and did not want to have anything to do with people from the Ji Mansion."
