However, it's not necessarily a bad thing. After all, Master Huang is a trustworthy person, and it's better to enjoy life in Utopia than to suffer in Yan Country.

A few minutes later, Nian and Ling arrived at Jieyuan through Xi's portal and soon met up with the others.

Huang Cao nodded, and the group, led by Yi, arrived at the place where Jie's body was stored.

Jie's body lay quietly on a stone bed, his clothes exactly the same as they had been decades ago, and there was no dust around him.

Her eyes were adorned with eyeshadow, giving her a look that was both playful and alluring. Her beautiful face was undeniable, and anyone who saw her would have to call her a beauty.

Unfortunately, her flat chest indicated that she had lost all life force and was merely an empty shell.

"Mr. Huang... let's get ready to begin. We sisters will protect you."

Ling drew a circle with his weapon, and flames blazed in Nian's eyes.

A stream of light flashed around Shu and Xi, and a powerful force swept through the surrounding environment. At this moment, they were more serious than ever before.

Without further delay, Huang Cao placed the green Seed in his palm and, under everyone's watchful eyes, fed Seed to Jie.

In an instant, the Seed turned into steam, outlining the shape of a young girl on Jie's body.

Then, as if possessed by a spirit, it returned to its original body.

A few seconds later, a very faint heartbeat was heard from Jie's body, which then grew louder and louder.

Like thunderous war drums, this was the sound of Great Beast.

At that age, he was first a beast, and only then did he transform into a human.

First came the sounds of animals, and finally the sounds of humans.

The sound of the war drums gradually faded, eventually turning into a gentle pulsation, until the girl opened her eyes.

"You must have slept longer than your older sister, haven't you? It's been so long, sister, and brothers and sisters."

Jie's voice was a little hoarse, but the tears in his eyes didn't lie, nor did his expression or soul.

I have truly returned to the world, no longer a wandering ghost.

Xi and Nian opened their arms and hugged her directly. After all, they were both quite young, belonging to the younger generation, and naturally didn't have as much composure and reserve as older sisters.

Yi wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said to Master Huang, "I'll go outside and make a round, and also tell my brothers this good news. I'll leave things here to you."

After seeing Yi off, Huang Cao walked to Jie's side and said, "It's been a long time, Jie. It must have been decades ago."

Jie glanced at the Huang Cao with a strange look, then uttered a startling statement. "Actually, I see you every day."

A question mark instantly appeared above the women's heads, but the person who said those words had no intention of hiding his actions.

Jie: "Mr. Huang, could you please come a little closer? My voice is a bit hoarse. I'll tell you when you get closer."

Caught off guard, Master Huang leaned in, only to feel as if his lips were enveloped by a patch of moist skin.

At this moment, Jie was still holding Xi and Nian in her arms, and then she just brazenly kissed them.

Everyone else was stunned, especially Shu, who almost dropped the water glass in her hand.

My dear sister, why is this happening?

The most shocked person was Nian in Jie's arms; when their lips touched, they were only a dozen centimeters apart.

But why not me?

Ling was also stunned by what she saw.

No, when exactly did you two get together within these past few decades?

Did I miss some amazing plot twist when I woke up?

All of this happened in a single second. A second after being kissed, Huang Cao gently pushed Jie away and very bluntly wiped her mouth.

"Was this an accident?" Huang Cao asked uncertainly, while he felt many eyes staring at him.

Jie smiled and said, "It wasn't an accident~ Actually, for the past few decades, I've been living with Mr. Huang and my two younger sisters~ Shu and Xi, you two are wonderful too~"

Wait, what did my sister just say?

Jie gave a brief introduction about how he has lived in this time and space over the past few decades, and how he has been involved in his sister's entire life.

Whether it's daytime or nighttime.

The more Shu and Xi talked, the redder their faces became. Although their older sister didn't explain everything clearly, she only talked about participating in daily life.

But everyone knows that life in Master Huang's house is not just about three meals a day.

"Jie... don't say anything, have some water first, you just woke up."

Shu immediately used the "drinking water" technique to shut up his sister's nagging. The latter didn't say anything more, but just stared intently at the somewhat restless Master Huang next to her.

After taking a quick sip of water, Jie gently stroked Master Huang's cheek and recounted all the feelings he had held in his heart for the past few decades.

One by one, she knew more about everything than Presis knew. Huang Cao felt a chill run down his spine because Jie Jie suddenly seemed to have a yandere vibe.

After explaining his inner thoughts, Jie stared intently into Master Huang's pupils with his beautiful eyes, and the strength in his hand increased significantly, as if afraid that the other party would run away.

"So can you give me a chance, a chance to be by your side in a real, tangible way, just like Shu and Xi?"

When talking about his younger sister, Jie even looked at Shu and Xi with pleading eyes.

These two were no match for their sister's onslaught and had already surrendered with their tails between their legs.

However, Master Huang was still a little confused, because he had never imagined that Jie had been watching him from above.

They've even launched a fierce attack on themselves now.

Huang Cao asked somewhat doubtfully, "What color were my underwear this morning?"

"A very simple, square gray," the woman in front of him said immediately, her tone full of certainty and leaving no room for doubt.

Okay, it seems Jie was right. It's certainly nice to have a beautiful woman throwing herself at you...

But...

Having observed Master Huang for decades, Jie naturally knew how much the man in front of her valued relationships and how dense he was, and knew that she wouldn't join this family so easily.

So she wasn't in a hurry for the man to give an immediate answer. "Perhaps we can live together for a while, just like with Shu and Xi. When you do something for them, please include me in the equation."

Ah?

Is this something that can be easily calculated? Do you know what the three of us do at night?

Looking at the serious yet slightly shy expression on Jie's face, Huang Cao assumed that the other person probably knew.

"Let's spend some time with my sister first, we won't mind."

Shu hugged Ah Cao tightly, enveloping the man in her arms with a maternal glow.

While it's difficult to accept a woman's love, what if that woman were my sister?

If it were an outsider, Shu would never be able to so readily advise A-Cao to let go of her resentment, because she doesn't understand what kind of feelings the outsider actually has for A-Cao.

But what if this person is your own sister?

Shu has always been biased towards his own family, even his own sister has boldly expressed her love for him.

If she didn't help, she would be letting down her sister. But she wouldn't force Ah Cao to accept, giving her a chance so that neither of them would have any regrets.

Jie grasped the man's hand with both of hers, her eyes filled with affection. "Please believe me, give me a chance to prove myself."

Huang Cao took a deep breath and stepped forward to hug Jie:

"Okay, but before that, we still need to keep our distance. At least at home, I'll give you a room to stay in."

Home is so wonderful.

Jie's feelings for Master Huang were not only love, but also an indescribable gratitude and desire to repay him.

Whether or not I can be resurrected without this man is another matter for now.

This whole family will probably never have freedom, let alone happiness, in their entire lives.

The appearance of the Huang Cao changed their fate, adding a touch of warm color to the world.

Therefore, due to the combination of various emotions, Jie's love is intense and sincere.

As the saying goes, one can only repay a great kindness with one's life.

Shu was the first to tell her family the news, but Warfarin and the others were not surprised. Instead, they went back to their room to check the size of the bed.

It's suitable; no need to change it for now.

Why weren't the women surprised? Because they had all seen Jie before; his sudden appearance would have been a real surprise.

Only Ines and the others had never seen it before.

In this world, Huang Cao actually saw Jie even earlier than he saw Ling.

After all, it was Yan Country that initially wanted to borrow grain from Utopia through millet, and later, after Jie heard about Utopia's education system, he took the initiative to come to Master Huang to investigate.

As for when he met Ling, that was another wonderful romantic encounter.

Anyway, when she recalled that day, she actually felt a little anticipation for things to go wrong, since she was drunk at the time.

When Jie consulted Master Huang about education, he was indeed very polite, but people can change.

When Warfarin met Master Huang, she was only looking for food, but she was captivated by this blade of grass, and the same was true for Lamian.

Therefore, initial attitudes don't really mean anything.

After a while, Yi returned from outside and looked at Jie, who was holding Master Huang with reluctance, with an expression that said, "I knew it."

He walked over and patted his sister on the shoulder with a meaningful expression.

"Sister Jie, you must treat Master Huang well. Our family has owed him so much."

Jie nodded heavily, "I will."

When the time comes, I'll have a healthy, chubby child, raise them from a young age, and repay them handsomely.

Huang Cao asked Yi, "Yi, have you told your brothers about Jie's resurrection?"

Yi replied, "The message has already been sent, and both the older and younger brothers have received replies. However, they cannot return yet because something happened to the second brother."

Wang, the second oldest in the Sui family, is also the most mischievous one.

Perhaps he was given too many pieces, which caused him to become a little mentally unstable, constantly believing that only he could revive his beloved sister.

Because Master Huang had never kept his promise, his family didn't say much.

No matter how much his older brother, younger brother, or younger sister tried to persuade him, Wang did not stop and continued preparing for the chessboard.

But now that Jie has returned, under Master Huang's protection, even if something unexpected happens, he won't return to Sui's consciousness.

Jie lowered her head and said, "I will handle this matter properly. Although I am the younger sister, he can still listen to me to some extent."

Only by presenting the facts to the second son can one persuade him.

The reason why the second brother hasn't caused any major trouble is precisely because Ji is keeping an eye on him. After all, you can't plan this big game without a good intelligence agent.

"But where is he now?" Ling asked.

"I know my second brother has divided himself into countless chess pieces, but as long as I find a few pieces, I have a way to forcibly wake him up with a slap."

After saying that, a ruler that shimmered with yellow light appeared in Jie's hand.

Yi touched his neck somewhat awkwardly, and suddenly felt an urge to find a hole to crawl into.

Thankfully, Master Huang was here, otherwise I would have been punished according to family rules.

Yi: "The chess pieces are a bit hard to find because they move around. Most of them are near the Si Sui Tai. Should I go and negotiate with them?"

Jie: "Spread the word of my resurrection far and wide. If he changes his mind after hearing it, that would be good. If not, then I'll have to wake him up myself."

After resolving his second brother's matter, Jie gave our Master Huang a light peck on the cheek:

"Wait for me for a month. I'll come find you after I've taken care of some things."

Huang Cao nodded. "Okay, I also need some time to adjust, and I'll prepare your room in the meantime."

After receiving permission from Warfarin and the others, Huang Cao didn't immediately think about hugging and cuddling with Jie.

Even if the other person agrees, wouldn't it be unfair to them if I invited them to my home without being prepared and something unpleasant happened later?

Whether you like the other person or you're just lusting after them, it doesn't matter.
