Chapter 147: The Dead Come Alive?

rest of the family members will be held hostage at the dilapidated temple.”If someone ran away, her family would have to bear double the punishment, how”Jiang Wan spoke with earnest words. Just as Re..."I'll send you to rest."

Song Jiu'yuan wanted to pick up Jiang Wan, but Jiang Wan pushed him away.

"No, I can do it myself!"

As she spoke, she got up on her own, but her legs went weak and she slid into Song Jiubian's arms again.

Song Jiubian: ...

Facing her hazy eyes, knowing this wasn't a gentlemanly act, Song Jiubian still helped her up.

A flash of white caught the corner of his eye, and Song Jiubian swiftly snatched up a towel to drape it over her.

"Wanwan."

"Um"

Ginger didn't know what she looked like at this moment, her arms wrapped around Song Jiubian's neck.

"Song Jiubian, you're quite good-looking."

Her pretty face kept getting closer, making Song Jiubian's heart race. Was she going to kiss him

She liked him so much, it should be that way, and besides, he didn't dislike her either.

Song Jiu-yuan waited quietly for the pretty lips to fall, but Jiang Wan shook her head suddenly:

"No, being handsome is useless, male beauty harms people."

Song Jiubian:...

"Wawa."

His voice was restrained, yet unbeknownst to the other party, he pinched Song Jiubian's cheek.

"You said that a man's skin is better than a woman's."

Song Jiubian: ...

But mine isn't bad either.

Ginger touched her own face again, leaving Song Jiubian amused and confused.

"Yes, you are beautiful."

His dark eyes fell on her fair and pretty face, she was so beautiful that he couldn't take his eyes off her.

He fought hard to control his emotions, then picked up a towel from beside him and draped it over Jiang Wan's shoulders.

"Ginger, I'll send you back to rest."

As he spoke, he lifted her up. Ginger clung to his neck, half-consciously.

Just stepping out of the hot spring, Song Jiu-yuan hugged Jiang Wan and went out. They happened to meet the head nurse and Song Jiu-li face to face.

"Seeing him holding Ginger Wawa," Song's madam chuckled with a hint of teasing, "So Wawa is here with you."

"I also said how could I not find anyone, since that's the case, take good care of her."

After finishing his words, he pulled Song Jiu Li's feet and ran away quickly. Song Jiu Yuan wanted to pull him back but it was too late.

Thinking of the people in Lin's residence, Song Jiubian hugged Jiang Wan tightly and used his light kung fu to leave directly.

When ginger rolled over, she woke up to find it was morning. The first thing she saw was Song Jiubian's dark eyes staring right at her.

"Song Jiubian, how did I end up here with you"

She frantically checked herself up and down, sitting by the table. Song Jiuyuan beside her softly said:

"Don't worry, I've had the servants from Lin Residence change your clothes."

"Oh."

Only then did Jiang Wan let out a sigh of relief and apologize, "Why haven't you rested"

Song Jiu'yuan glanced at Jiang Wan, who was wrapped like a zongzi.

You took over my bed.

He couldn't even grab a blanket, being separated like this in the middle of the night was such a hassle for a married couple. He might as well sit up and read a book.

Ginger felt a little embarrassed. She rubbed her temples and said, "I won't drink next time."

I didn't expect her to have such a poor tolerance for alcohol. She shouldn't have blacked out from last night's events.

The moment she thought of it, she felt like dying of embarrassment.

It's not right to drink.

Song Jiu's casual reply, followed by turning his back to the side, handed the space over to Jiang Wan.

"Go wash up."

"Uh huh."

Jiang Wan realized that Song Jiubian was quite thoughtful. There were her everyday clothes hanging by the bed.

Rustling sounds came from behind him, and Song Jiubian instinctively thought of the white figure he had seen last night.

His fingers clenched unconsciously. He had never been this tense, not even on the battlefield before. But strangely enough,

He noticed a sweet feeling stirring in his heart, one that made him want to savor it.

Okay.

Ginger, dressed neatly, took a few steps to Song Jiubian's face and found him with a tight expression, looking serious as he stood with his hands behind his back.

"What's wrong"

"It's okay!"

Song Jiubian was serious, and if it weren't for the slight tremor in his Adam's apple, no one would have been able to tell that there were ripples in his heart.

"Let's go have breakfast."

Ginger thought about it and decided to push her wheelchair out anyway. There were a lot of people in the courtyard, so it was better to be careful.

As she pushed Song Jiubian into the living room, she noticed that everyone's eyes were looking at her strangely.

Especially Song Jiuli, when I looked at her, I quickly moved my gaze away.

"Do I have flowers on my face"

Ginger touched her own face, it was fine, still as smooth as ever.

"No, no, I just think your sister-in-law is radiant today, particularly beautiful!"

Song Jiuli thought about the scene of her big brother hugging his sister-in-law last night, and a stream of gossip bubbles rose in her heart.

It's possible that she could become an aunt before long.

Ginger:

No, you keep talking and smiling like that What's the deal with that grin

"Wanni, have your breakfast quickly."

Song Daniu smiled and gave Jiang Wan a bowl of hot chicken porridge. Jiang Wan dazedly took it.

"Are you all so happy, has something good happened"

"The snow has stopped, we can continue our journey soon."

Song Jiubian glanced at Song Daniu and Song Jiali with a faint, chilling look in his eyes, causing their hearts to sink. ...

It seems like Yuan'er (elder brother) is afraid that Wanwan (elder sister-in-law) will be shy.

"Yes, it's not far from Jiuzhou here," Song's daughter-in-law nodded eagerly.

We can reach Jiuzhou very soon, of course I am happy.

Song Jiuli also nodded frantically. Although it looked fine, Jiang Wan always felt something was off.

She hurriedly turned to Song Jiuchili, who usually had little presence, "Jiuchili, what do you think"

"I'm glad too."

Song Jiuci smiled very sincerely. Because he was too tired last night, he only soaked for a minute before rushing back to his room to rest.

He was unaware of what happened in the hot spring pool afterward.

This dispelled Ginger's suspicions.

After a warm and lively breakfast together, the family saw Butler Lin hurrying in with Ren Bang.

"Your Highness, this official says he has urgent business to see you."

Master Lin, fearing a delay, almost didn't hesitate when Ren Bang suggested they meet with Ginger.

"What's wrong"

Jiang Wan put down her chopsticks and wiped her lips. Everyone followed her gaze and looked at Ren Bang.

Upon hearing this, Ren Bang urgently said: "Your Highness, last night during our rest, someone in our exile group froze to death."

I figured in this freezing blizzard, people dying is common enough, so just have them throw the bodies outside.

"Where did you hear that the man who froze to death this morning came back I always felt something was off about him, so I wanted to ask the Princess to take a look."

"Are you sure he froze to death"

I'm sure!

Ren Bang nodded in affirmation. He'd been transporting prisoners for years, and countless people died on the way each year.

"You don't remember me, do you"

Song Jiuli frowned, she was somewhat unconvinced, where could someone who had died come back to life

"Let's go take a look."

Ginger stood up, she was also a little curious about what was going on.

"Very good, your Highness!"

Ren Bang led the way, everyone following behind. He went into detail about that person's behavior and said:

"The body was dumped outside the house last night. Even if we had misread it and it had been alive then, that person wouldn't have survived a night in the cold."ghtly by his own husband, or else he would have been blown away."Little Sprite, where is the nearest place to rest around here"Ginger's voice was laced with urgency. If they didn't hurry, these people...
