Chapter 1071: I’m Here

The scenery in front of Chi Jiao changed in the blink of an eye. The beautiful scene turned into smoke and dissipated completely, and the world was covered in dark clouds for a moment. A cold wind howled, and the sound of horse hooves and fighting came from afar.

Chi Jiao didn’t know what had happened. In this dream, her body felt so weak that she couldn’t control it. She couldn’t escape. Her legs went limp and she collapsed to her knees.

A whistling sound rang through the air and the girl in the white dress pushed her to the side, only to have her back pierced by an arrow.

Chi Jiao saw the girl spit out a mouthful of blood.

This mouthful of blood seemed to shatter the illusion in front of her, causing Chi Jiao’s gaze to sway. She could now clearly see the girl’s face.

It was a face that Chi Jiao could not forget. The girl’s gaze was tender and her smile was beautiful. Even the blood on the corner of her lips was so lovely that it instantly stole Chi Jiao’s heart.

It was Bai Wanxi.

“Sister!” Chi Jiao subconsciously shouted when she saw Bai Wanxi fall, waking up from her nightmare.

Chi Jiao was still in a fluster even after waking up!

She took deep breaths and seemed in a complete daze.

She grabbed at the empty air in front of her until someone held her hand tightly.

Chi Jiao turned and met Quan Jue’s eyes.

“Jiaojiao, what’s wrong?” Quan Jue’s eyes were filled with concern. He seemed to have been here for a while. At this moment, his large hand was tightly holding Chi Jiao’s hand, unwilling to let go.

Chi Jiao took deep breaths and hugged him tightly. “Brother Quan, I had a nightmare. I dreamed that Bai Wanxi died to protect me. I am so scared…”

Chi Jiao’s voice was soft and sounded extremely agitated.

Quan Jue hugged her tightly as well. He patted her back gently and comforted her softly. “It’s alright. I’m here.”

With Quan Jue’s company, Chi Jiao’s heart, which had risen to her throat, finally relaxed. However, she still hugged him tightly, unwilling to let go.

Her eyes were filled with helplessness as she said pitifully, “Brother Quan, let’s go look at the diary again when we’re done with our work.”

Chi Jiao was worried about Bai Wanxi. She was worried that She Qi would persecute the Bai family.

She didn’t know why she was worried about this family from hundreds of years ago. She knew that everything in the diary had occurred hundreds of years ago. She couldn’t change it even if she knew what happened next.

Even so, she couldn’t control her emotions. It was as if everything concerning was constantly tugging at her heartstrings.

Quan Jue couldn’t bear to see Chi Jiao’s uneasy expression and hugged her even more tightly. He used so much strength that it was as if he wanted to melt her into his bones.

He patted her shoulder and coaxed her. “Alright, I’ll do whatever you want.”

Chi Jiao composed herself and lay in Quan Jue’s arms. Suppressing the uneasiness in her heart and calming her emotions, her face turned slightly red as she asked, “Brother, when did you arrive?”
