Yun Baichen looked at Yun Jiu before him, feeling a deep sense of comfort. This Xiao Jiu had always been a source of worry, sensitive and fragile, but at this moment, despite her slightly erratic behavior, she was much better than her previous gloomy self.
"Xiao Jiu, you did well this time," Yun Baichen nodded, a hint of approval in his gaze. "You should head back now. Don't mention the door or the Spirit Gathering Pill to anyone."
Upon hearing this, Yun Jiu's eyes brightened, knowing that her grandfather had accepted her explanation. She obediently replied and then skipped away.
Watching Yun Jiu's lively figure bounce off, Yun Baichen couldn't help but twitch his lips before turning to Butler Ji. "Old Ji, do you think what Xiao Jiu said is true?"
Butler Ji pondered for a moment and replied, "Master, regardless of its truth, Miss Jiu is indeed much better than before. She used to always have a sullen face, but now she seems much more cheerful."
Yun Baichen sighed. "Yes, she has changed a lot. However, with the Spirit Gathering Pill in the hands of the Bai Family, if Bai Peng manages to break through to the seventh level of Refining Spirit after taking it, our position as the Yun Family could become precarious."
Butler Ji also showed concern. "You're right, Master. The Bai Family has always been eyeing us closely. With the Spirit Gathering Pill in their possession, they are likely to become even more arrogant."
Yun Baichen frowned slightly. "Even if Bai Peng succeeds in breaking through, it will take at least half a year. We need to come up with a plan during this time."
Just then, Yun Jiu suddenly returned and hid beneath the window, eavesdropping shamelessly.
She felt a tingle of curiosity; although she had decided not to covet the treasures of the Yun Family anymore, she was still fascinated by the legendary treasures.
Yun Baichen and Butler Ji had no idea that someone was eavesdropping in broad daylight, and since Yun Jiu lacked spiritual power, they remained oblivious to her presence.
Yun Jiu felt her eyes suddenly grow heavy as she listened. Her cheap grandfather was truly good to this little white-eyed wolf, always defending her and even preparing a Spirit Gathering Pill for her.
Hmph! If you don't appreciate it, then it's my gain! This Spirit Gathering Pill is incredibly beneficial for me! Yun Jiu thought happily to herself.
At that moment, a child's voice rang out, "Yun Jiu! What are you sneaking around for?"
Startled, Yun Jiu turned to see a seven or eight-year-old boy glaring at her with anger.
Feeling a bit embarrassed, she smiled at Yun Baichen, "Grandfather, um, I just thought it was nice and cool here, so I came to enjoy the breeze."
Seeing her awkward expression, Yun Baichen couldn't help but chuckle. "Xiao Jiu, if you want to eavesdrop next time, remember to find a more hidden spot."
Caught in her thoughts, Yun Jiu's face flushed red, and she shot a glare at the little boy. "Brat! What do you know!"
The boy's face showed indignation, tears welling up in his eyes. "Grandfather, she's clearly a white-eyed wolf. Why do you always protect her?"
"Because she is the daughter of the Yun Family. Her name is Yun Jiu! She is your Ninth Sister!" Yun Baichen's voice grew stern.
Yun Jiu's heart trembled at the mention of being the daughter of the Yun Family.
Though she always wore a cheerful smile on her face, deep down she was a cold-hearted person.
According to her friend from a past life, Yun Jiu was nothing more than a smiling tiger; with so many smiles, even she almost believed she had a warm heart. However, now, Yun Baichen's gentle words and earnest teachings felt like a warm breeze, melting the ice that had formed deep within her heart.
