Chapter 105: Crisis Solved

Setting aside issues she couldn’t figure out in the short term was Jiang Xia’s way of doing things.

With this matter temporarily shelved, Jiang Xia and her father began to investigate why some seeds weren’t sprouting.

After a glance, Jiang Chuan asked, “Are you sure all these seeds are alive?”

“Yes,” Jiang Xia nodded.

Her confidence stemmed from a whimsical experiment where she had buried a shriveled, seemingly dead seed in the soil, only to find it sprouting the next day.

While she wasn’t sure if the revival was due to the interspace’s water or the soil, the miraculous revival surprised her.

Jiang Chuan looked at Jiang Xia suspiciously, only to see Jiang Xia’s dissatisfied expression.

Since his daughter had asked him, he couldn’t outright admit his ignorance. He offered vaguely, “Perhaps the varieties are different. Some bloom in a month, others don’t for half a year.”

This offhand remark gave Jiang Xia some new ideas.

She checked the various categorized vegetables she’d planted: bok choy, lettuce, tomatoes, spinach, and some fruits like apples and pears. These two fruit trees bore fruit only after she watered them more than usual.

After inspecting all the ripe fruits, it seemed like her dad was right. The fast-growing ones were indeed early maturing fruits.

Looking at the two land she had watered for two days, Jiang Xia’s eyes sparkled. Perhaps her mother had discovered something valuable.

Just as she was about to share this good news with her father, something unexpected happened. A sudden feeling of dizziness overcame her, making the world seem to spin.

When she opened her eyes, Jiang Xia found herself back in the wooden house.

Jiang Xia was fine, but Jiang Chuan, Jiang Gu, and Zhou Lan looked as if they had been dropped from the sky, sitting dazedly on the floor.

Jiang Gu was the first to recover, looking around bewilderedly and asking, “Mom, how did we get back?”

She had just been enjoying the sweet water and listening to her mother’s stories. How did they suddenly return?

Zhou Lan was equally confused. Shouldn’t Xiao Xia have warned them before bringing them back?

Zhou Lan and Jiang Gu both turned their wide eyes to Jiang Xia, who quickly waved her hands, denying, “It wasn’t me, I didn’t do it, don’t jump to conclusions.”

After this round trip, Jiang Xia had a feeling that her interspace seemed to have its own consciousness.

“The wolf pack has left,” Jiang Chuan’s words instantly drew everyone’s attention.

Jiang Xia quickly ran to the window and saw silence in the woods. It was as if their previous life-threatening situation had never existed.

Cautiously, Jiang Xia pushed the door open. Zhou Lan tried to stop her but couldn’t match Jiang Xia’s speed.

Birdsong echoed from afar, strikingly loud in the silent night.

Jiang Xia surveyed the surroundings, and when her gaze fell on a wooden wall, she broke out in a cold sweat. The wall was covered in scratches from claws, and some parts even appeared to have been bitten.

Although Jiang Xia wasn’t sure why they had retreated, just thinking about the earlier scene sent a chill down her spine.

Jiang Chuan and Zhou Lan followed her outside and upon seeing the same scene, they fell silent. They had disappeared when the pack of wolves were attacking. If they had been in the car, and had been spotted by the pack, it was uncertain if they would have survived.

Jiang Gu hid behind the door, watching her parents and sister with solemn faces, not daring to speak. She suddenly remembered the previous times her parents had gone into the mountains. She felt a sense of relief that they hadn’t encountered a pack of wolves then, otherwise she might have lost them.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Chuan spoke, “We need to speed up.”

They couldn’t stay on the mountain for long. If it wasn’t for their daughter’s interspace transporting them in the nick of time, the consequences were unthinkable. But, judging from her expressions when she moved in and out, the spatial shifts weren’t under her control. So, who controlled this interspace?

Jiang Chuan expressed this to Jiang Xia. At first, she was stunned by her father’s question, but then her expression turned serious, and the joy from their narrow escape quickly faded away.

“Mom, have the wolves all left?” Jiang Gu asked cautiously.

Zhou Lan turned to Jiang Gu and showed a reassuring smile, “Yes, they’re all gone. Come out now!”

Seeing his wife and youngest daughter approach, Jiang Chuan gave his daughter a significant look. Jiang Xia understood and didn’t bring up the subject again..
