Xiao Yu stood at Yunxi's room door, watching the two people walking away. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. When they reached Xiao Jianying’s room, Yunxi secretly glanced at Xiao Yu and upon seeing him looking back, she stuck out her tongue at him.

After the two entered the house, Xiao Yu's sister, Xiao Yu, poked her head out from her room door, covering her mouth as she giggled at Xiao Yu. However, soon after, she was pulled inside by her husband Lu Jianhong. As he went in, Lu Jianhong gave Xiao Yu a thumbs up and followed Xiao Yu into the house.

Xiao Yu watched as the hallway quieted down, shook his head helplessly, and walked out of the top floor of the antique city to the clinic.

In Golden Auspiciousness Forest Villa District, Jin Xianglin’s family home.

The Jin family returned home and sat on the sofa. Jin Xianglin looked at his daughter in front of him and said, "Xiu Zhu, I want to tell you this: no matter what thoughts are in your heart, you must put them down, or else if something really happens, Father won’t be able to help you!"

Regarding Jin Xiu Zhu's temperament, Jin Xianglin had some understanding. If he didn't make things clear with her, who knew what might happen.

"That’s right! Xiu Zhu, that Xiao Yu isn’t someone you can control either; you should give up on that idea in your heart!" Hearing Jin Xianglin's words, Shao Jingru also spoke sternly.

“Mom and Dad, don't worry. What could happen I just admire Doctor Xiao and want to pursue him!” Jin Xiu Zhu said carelessly.

"Moreover, having a doctor with such superb medical skills as your son-in-law in the future wouldn’t be disagreeable for you guys."

When Jin Xiu Zhu talked about this, she spoke without any hesitation and showed none of the reserve expected of girls.

"No, I don't agree that you do this. I tell you now: give up on this thought early to avoid getting hurt later!" Upon hearing his daughter not taking a single word he said seriously, Jin Xianglin looked at Jin Xiu Zhu sternly and said.

“That’s right, my good girl. Listen to your dad this time! Your father won’t harm you!” Shao Jingru also spoke earnestly to Jin Xiu Zhu.

"Don't worry about it, don't worry about it. Mom and Dad, I'm already grown up and know what is appropriate and inappropriate. You just relax. Besides, who knows if Doctor Xiao might be willing too After all, being with me could save him from decades of hard work, but with that girl he won’t get anything!”

In Jin Xiu Zhu’s mind, her parents were wealthy, and whenever she wanted something since childhood, they would buy it for her. She remembered when she was in elementary school, one of her classmates had a very beautiful toy. When she saw it, she liked it so much that she wanted to have it too.

But her classmate also liked it and wouldn't give it to her, so she used her pocket money to buy it. Eventually, though she spent half a year's worth of her pocket money, she got the toy as she wished. From then on, she knew that with enough money, one could get even the most beloved item from others if they were willing to pay the price.

"Daughter, listen to your dad! This person is someone we can't provoke!" Xiao Jingru saw her daughter showing no intention of letting go and couldn’t help but say this.

Jin Xianglin and Xiao Jingru had never revealed Xiao Yu’s identity to anyone, not even their own daughter. They knew that such an extraordinary person as Xiao Yu didn’t like others knowing too much about him; if they told their daughter, they feared she might blab and bring trouble upon them.

"Why He's just a doctor! How can we provoke him" When Jin Xiumeng heard her mother say that they couldn't provoke Xiao Yu, she was taken aback and asked hurriedly.

"Erm…"

Hearing what her daughter said, she didn’t know how to reply. Should she tell her the truth—that Xiao Yu was an extraordinary person If she did so, would it cause their secret about him to be leaked Moreover, revealing this might only make their daughter even more curious about Xiao Yu.

"Xiumeng, I will explain why we can't provoke Xiao Yu. His mother is someone we can’t provoke! To some people, us merchants are merely tools; therefore, you must pay attention not to bring any trouble upon our family!"

Seeing that his wife was struggling with an answer, Jin Xianglin took over and said this. It wasn't good to reveal Xiao Yu’s identity, but revealing a little bit about Xiao Jianying wouldn’t be too problematic.

"Oh…" Jin Xiumeng nodded thoughtfully.

Seeing their daughter nodding, both Jin Xianglin and Xiao Jingru let out a sigh of relief, thinking she had taken in what they said. However, whether or not Jin Xiumeng truly understood was something only she knew.

In the Antique City, Wan Sheng Hall

Xiao Yu came down from the rooftop of the antique city and entered Wan Sheng Hall; at this time, Wang Erxi had already left, and the hall was dark inside.

After Xiao Yu opened the door to enter, he switched on the lights and looked around the whole place with a satisfied smile.

Since it was still early, Xiao Yu didn’t go to sleep but took out a book and sat at the consultation table to read. Gradually, his entire mind sank into the book, and that indescribable restlessness gradually subsided.

At eleven o'clock at night, Xiao Yu put away the book in his hand, stretched lazily, and headed towards the rest room.

"Knock knock knock......knock knock knock......."

Just after washing his face and getting ready to sleep, Xiao Yu heard urgent knocking sounds from outside the clinic.

Hearing the knocks, Xiao Yu walked out of the rest room. As soon as he entered the outer room, he heard a noisy conversation coming from the door.

Xiao Yu went up to the door and opened it. He saw Wang Fang, who had come to him that night, along with her male classmate, accompanied by several parents and teachers-like individuals behind them.

Seeing the two of them, Xiao Yu was taken aback and blurted out to Wang Fang: "Has your classmate not recovered yet"

"Not yet, doctor. Please go and take a look at him quickly!" Wang Fang said urgently.

The male classmate showed an embarrassed expression; they had found a fortune-teller in the eastern city that night, but the woman was extremely arrogant and wouldn't come out of her house to see them no matter what.

They then asked some classmates for help and sent these girls to the fortune-teller's place.

Since it involved playing with a Ouija board which is considered superstitious, none of the students dared to tell their teachers about this.

When they arrived at the fortune-teller's place, those female students who had been shouting and screaming due to playing with the Ouija board suddenly became quiet. They were rather happy thinking that it was all over, but unexpectedly, these silent girls fell into collective unconsciousness without any signs of waking up.

The fortune-teller said there was no problem and claimed she only needed to perform a ritual for them to wake up. But after the fortune-teller's ritual, the girls did indeed regain consciousness, stopped talking nonsense, but started mimicking various animals; even the fortune-teller herself went mad.

In desperation, they informed their school teachers. When these teachers saw this scene, all of them were dumbfounded: some students were crawling on the ground while others were jumping around and making weird noises continuously.

The fortune-teller stood in the middle of them, occasionally kicking one or the other but never dared to approach a girl named XiaoXiao. Every time XiaoXiao tried to get close, she would run away quickly.

Seeing this situation, the teachers were at a loss as well. Clearly, these girls weren't sick in the conventional sense; if they were ill, it must be mental illness. So, someone who seemed like an administrative leader decided that they should inform the parents quickly and see how they would handle it: find someone to treat them or send them to a psychiatric hospital.

Although these teachers claim to teach science and educate people, they still hold a sense of reverence towards supernatural beliefs because some phenomena cannot be explained by science.

Just like some officials who say they only believe in the Party and not in ghosts or deities, yet they always perform rituals for the spirits when a new office building is completed.

The parents of these girls arrived at the scene just as dawn was breaking. Seeing their daughters' condition left them perplexed and unsure of what to do next.

Especially after learning from the teachers that the students had been playing with a "pen ghost" before falling into this state, they all stood by anxiously but did not know how to proceed.

As the sun rose higher in the sky, these girls who were initially crawling on the ground fell motionless and lay there without moving. The fortune-teller also remained still on the floor.

The family of the fortune-teller was more accustomed to such situations since she often dealt with similar cases. Although this incident had a mysterious twist, it was within their understanding as unexpected occurrences could happen during spirit-invoking rituals.

Seeing that their children were unconscious on the ground, the parents quickly carried them to the hospital.

The doctors at the hospital informed the teachers and parents that these girls weren't ill; they were simply tired and sleeping. They advised everyone to take the girls home.

In the afternoon, the girls gradually woke up, all complaining of body aches. Upon seeing their schoolmates' parents and teachers gathered around them, they were taken aback.

Only after listening to their parents’ recounting did they start feeling scared, trembling with fear but still unsure how to react. Particularly XiaoXiao was troubled because she usually initiated the pen ghost game.

At this point, she realized some things truly shouldn't be played with, although fortunately, the crisis had passed.

Even though the incident is now over, given that most families only have one child, they naturally wish to protect them from any further harm. Therefore, these parents took their daughters to several fortune-tellers and spiritual healers for consultations.

The spiritual practitioners listened to their stories and began performing a dance around the girls while sprinkling water mixed with leaves on them. After completing their ritual, the spiritual healer told the family that the reason the girls were in such a state was due to being possessed by spirits; what they just did was to help remove these spirits from the girls.

Although the spirits had been expelled from the girls' bodies, they weren't entirely gone and needed to be further driven away at night through burning paper money and joss paper cars. Of course, the families of the girls paid a hefty fee for this service.ge families often found it tough.Even if they wanted to cultivate in a remote mountain forest, they couldn't abandon their family responsibilities.
