What Qiao Jin had said to Song Yanqing still lingered in her ears.
If they went there now, something bad would probably happen.
However, it was impossible for Qiao Fei not to bring Qiao Jin with her.
She held Qiao Jin's hand and pleaded with her earnestly."Xiao Jin, mom will take you there, but you must not say anything offensive when the time comes. Just follow us to the banquet and leave together with us, okay?"
Mu Qichu had also heard about what Qiao Jin said about the Song Family's Young Master.
Although Song Yanqing was well-known for being sickly, no one had ever dared to curse him in person.
It stood to reason that they shouldn't bring Qiao Jin, but Qiao Fei felt that since Qiao Jin was back with them, it wouldn't be appropriate not to bring her.
Still, she simply begged Qiao Jin not to speak.
Qiao Jin's expression was also very serious."I won't say anything."
She would leave as soon as she got the death energy.
Qiao Fei was a little relieved."As long as you don't talk, it will all be fine."
As long as Qiao Jin didn't say anything, the world would be at peace.
Qiao Jin still felt that Song Yanqing was a bit weird, not only because of his heavy death energy, but also because of the strangeness of his omen.
It was just that Qiao Jin couldn't tell what the situation was, at the moment.
After all, she still needed formations for basic purposes, and at a glance, she could only understand shallow things.
That night, Mu Qichu, Mu Qilian, and Mu Zhenming all returned home.
It was their formal acknowledgement of Qiao Jin.
The eldest brother had been working abroad for a year and a half now, and he didn't come back often.
Mu Zhenming still maintained the most basic courtesy towards Qiao Jin, and being the role model as the head of the family, he welcomed Qiao Jin to the Mu family's home.
Mu Qichu and Mu Qilian did not respond, while Qiao Fei clapped happily.
With a smile on her face, Qiao Jin said to them, "Thank you all for the warm welcome, and thank you, Zhenming and Feifei. In the future, everyone will be family, and I will protect all of you."
The Mu family had no response to that.
Qiao Fei's smile stiffened for a moment, but soon she exclaimed heartily, "Well, well, everyone will be family from now on."
Besides, she was truly overjoyed at Qiao Jin's arrival.
Then, she immediately summoned Qiao Jin to eat.
Eating more and talking less was surely the right way.
Mu Qi sneered and rolled his eyes conspicuously.
Mu Zhenming frowned slightly to signal that even if he didn't like her, he shouldn't show his dislike, since after all, the Mu family needed to uphold its image of being well-bred.
Their first formal meal together was eaten with a peaceful yet somewhat unusual ambience.
***
Early the next morning, Mu Qilian and Mu Qichu had to go to school. After all, they were only a little older than Qiao Jin, and they were both in college now.
Qiao Jin had to have her checkup first.
When she arrived at the hospital, she'd do nothing more than some routine blood tests and other examinations, and the results would be available by noon.
They were people of distinguished status, so naturally, the checkup results came quickly.
But during the examination, Qiao Jin saw Huo Ling, who had called her before, standing off to the side.
Her complexion didn't look good even to the naked eye, and the pallor of her face was even more terrifying than that of the patients.
Had it not been for the fact that she knew that Qiao would come back for a checkup today, she would have returned to her hometown to see her brother already.
It was just that she still had some unanswered questions, and she wasn't willing to give it a rest until she got to the bottom of them.
During Qiao Jin's checkup, she couldn't get in, but after the checkup was finished, while they awaited the results, Qiao Jin found an excuse to drive Qiao Fei away. She sat on the bench in the small garden outside the hospital. When Huo Ling saw that she was sitting there alone, a grateful look appeared on her face, and she quickly approached her.
