Looking around Jian Cen's current dwelling, the walls were riddled with cracks, the roof had several gaping holes, the floor was damp, and pests scurried about. The air was thick with the stench of decay.
Zi Wan couldn't help but furrow her brow.
The person in her arms trembled violently, his body burning hot to the touch. She reached up to feel his forehead; this frail little figure was running a fever.
“Hey, are you okay? Can you hear me… don’t die on me! Mo Lin Jun will question my abilities! I don’t want this great opportunity ruined by you!”
In a flurry, she rushed to find water and medicine, her feet aching and back sore. Only then did Jian Cen settle down, his fever finally subsiding.
Jian Cen struggled to open his eyes, and through the haze, he saw a beautiful and charming face.
The woman was anxiously replacing the wet cloth on his forehead, murmuring, “You can’t die… what will I do if you do!”
He didn’t remember knowing this woman but felt a strange familiarity before drifting back into unconsciousness.
When Zi Wan returned to the Nine Heavens estate, she found the imposing Si Ming Jun waiting in the hall.
The maid Xiao Qian cautiously followed behind Zi Wan and whispered, “Today, shortly after Lady descended with Mo Lin Xian Jun, Si Ming Jun barged in wanting to see you.”
It seemed that after waking up from his drunken state, Si Ming Jun had discovered that Ming Book had been altered and was now here to seek retribution!
Sure enough, upon seeing Zi Wan, Si Ming Jun hurled the teacup he held tightly in his hand. Fortunately, Zi Wan was quick-witted and caught it before placing it back down. With feigned ignorance, she asked, “I wonder what brings Si Ming Jun to my humble abode so suddenly?”
"Hmph, Lady... what do you think of this Ming Book?"
Si Ming Jun presented the "evidence," the Ming Book filled with her messy handwriting. "I've heard that Mo Lin Xian Jun is the most understanding of all. Should I show this Ming Book to him?"
That insufferable Si Ming Jun! How dare she bring Huan Mo Lin into this!
In the end, to minimize the situation, Zi Wan had no choice but to descend to help Jian Cen, who was destined for great wealth and honor, navigate through the trials she had rewritten for him.
A day in the Nine Heavens equates to a year in the mortal realm.
At this moment, Jian Cen had grown into a graceful young man. He had grown taller, his features more defined. Though dressed in coarse linen, he still exuded charm, catching the attention of young girls passing by.
Zi Wan observed coldly and spat disdainfully. She had always heard that Jian Cen was one of the most handsome men in the Nine Heavens, yet she found him merely passable, not worthy of her admiration.
If she remembered correctly, once Jian Cen left this small town, he would encounter a group of grass thieves who would abduct him to the renowned Blue Tower in the capital.
The so-called Blue Tower was similar to a brothel, but its clientele consisted of wealthy women, while the attendants were handsome young men.
Celestial beings had their own rules; they could not recklessly use their powers when descending to the mortal realm. Otherwise, altering fate would bring about heavenly tribulations.
For safety's sake, Zi Wan sealed all her powers to prevent any impulsive actions.
She stealthily followed Jian Cen but soon lost track of him.
Zi Wan looked around in confusion. Suddenly, someone wrapped their arms around her waist, and her hands were pinned down tightly.
A warm, humid breath brushed against Zi Wan's neck, and a familiar deep voice whispered in her ear, "Who are you? You've been following me. What are your intentions?"
"Um... my name is Zi Wan... Hehe, as for following you, it's just for fun..."
Seeing Jian Cen seemed ready to hoist her over his shoulder, Zi Wan turned pale with fear and blurted out, "Actually... I've admired you for a long time!"
Feeling Jian Cen's body stiffen, Zi Wan quickly struggled to break free from his grip and leaned against a tree to catch her breath. She hadn't seen him for a while, and she was surprised at how much stronger he had become!
