Nan Yuanman stared wide-eyed at the endless stream of golden merit appearing on his spiritual platform.
So many, so many merits.
Wow!
The little dumpling was so excited that she couldn't help but stand up on her tiptoes. She was about to make a fortune!
If all this merit is given to Grandpa, he will recover quickly!
Brother Zhang Shimian is right about some things: we should do more good deeds so that we can accumulate more and more merit!
The merits within her spiritual platform seemed to sense Nan Yuanman's thoughts. They paused for a moment, then sent a large stream of merits rapidly into her spiritual platform, into her peacefully beating crystal heart.
The beating glass heart paused for a few seconds, then started beating again, spewing out a mist mixed with pale gold.
The mist vanished from her mind in the blink of an eye, quickly seeping into her meridians.
Before Nan Yuanman could even lament the sudden loss of his merit power, a warm sensation suddenly spread through his limbs and bones, making his body feel as warm and comfortable as if he were soaking in a hot spring.
At the same time, an irresistible drowsiness spread from within her body, and the little dumpling, exhausted from a day's work, finally closed her eyes with tears in her eyes and fell fast asleep.
When Nan Yuanman woke up again, he was back at the manor, dressed in clean clothes, and lying on a soft bed.
Before Nan Yuanman could recall her memories before falling asleep, she heard a loud commotion. Listening carefully, it sounded like her sixth brother and Lou Yuqi playing a game.
Besides the commotion, there was the sound of keyboards being typed, Aunt Qingwan chatting on the phone, and Feng Zining talking during a meeting.
It's so noisy... so noisy...
Nan Yuanman frowned in discomfort, and couldn't help but raise her hand to cover her ears. She rolled over and buried herself in the blanket, only then did her ears feel a little better.
When Feng Congqian came in, he saw that the little girl who was lying on the bed was gone, and there was only a big bulge on the thin blanket.
A smile flashed in Feng Congqian's eyes. He walked over and patted the thin blanket: "Little lazybones, aren't you getting up yet? The sun's already high in the sky."
Nan Yuanman curled up in the blanket, whimpering and acting coquettishly without saying a word.
Fearing she would suffocate, Feng Congqian simply lifted the thin blanket, revealing the little fleshy mound of flesh with her little bottom sticking out underneath.
Seeing Nan Yuanman clutching her ear in slight pain, Feng Congqian's smile faltered. He picked her up in a slightly flustered manner and asked softly, "What's wrong? Is your ear uncomfortable? Let Daddy take a look?"
Even when he lowered his voice, it sounded like a loudspeaker was on in Luo Nan Yuanman's ears, making her head buzz.
She couldn't help but grab Feng Congqian's mouth and say, "Dad, don't speak. It's too loud and hurts my ears."
Feng Congqian stopped talking, but his hands continued to work, carefully examining her ears.
It was still fair and tender, with no obvious external injuries, and there were no signs of injury inside the ear.
Nan Yuanman was in so much pain, his fleshy face contorted in agony as he examined him.
She didn't know how her hearing became so, so good after she woke up from a nap, as if someone had put a megaphone in her ear.
Even though there were so many rooms between them, she could hear her sixth brother fart when he went to the toilet.
The little dumpling looked dejected, snuggling into Feng Congqian's arms, pouting and crying with teary eyes that she felt terrible.
Feng Congqian was heartbroken. After he brought Nan Yuanman to his side, the little dumpling had always been full of energy and lively. How could she look so listless and dispirited now?
He covered Nan Yuanman's ears with one hand and took out his phone with the other to send a message to Su Runze, asking him to bring the Feng family's medical team over.
Su Runze, who had finally managed to snag a vacation and was about to head out fishing with his rod, was speechless.
He truly owes Feng Congqian a debt he has never been close to in his life.
Feng Congqian's commotion in calling for a doctor was quickly noticed by the rest of the family. Within minutes, everyone in the manor rushed to Nan Yuanman's bedroom.
Feng Jingcheng exclaimed loudly, "What's wrong with Yuanman? Is she sick?"
Lou Yuqi stopped playing his game and asked anxiously, "Boss, are you alright?"
The moment those two loud speakers blared, Nan Yuanman saw stars and her head was buzzing; the intense dizziness made her involuntarily cry out, and her face turned even paler.
Feng Congqian's face darkened instantly. He opened his mouth to curse, but considering Nan Yuanman's strange hearing, he didn't utter a sound. He just pointed to the door, his eyes saying three big words—Get out!
The perceptive Feng Zining noticed that Feng Congqian's hand was constantly on Nan Yuanman's ear, and guessed that there might be something wrong with her ear. Before Feng Jingcheng could say anything, she grabbed him and Lou Yuqi by the collar and dragged the two simpletons out.
Meng Qingwan also sensed something, but didn't say anything. She raised her finger and pointed to her ear, her eyes asking if there was something wrong with Nan Yuanman's ears.
Feng Congqian nodded with a dark expression.
Meng Qingwan glanced worriedly at the little dumpling whose eyes were brimming with tears from gagging, and her heart sank.
I was perfectly fine yesterday, how come I suddenly got sick?
Even after rushing over and conducting two or three full-body examinations on Nan Yuanman, Su Runze still couldn't figure it out.
The examination report showed that the young woman was in good health and had no problems whatsoever except for needing to take some calcium supplements.
But seeing how uncomfortable she looked, it wasn't an act. What exactly went wrong?
Su Runze frowned and then conducted a targeted examination of Nan Yuanman's ears.
While waiting for the results, he gave Feng Congqian two soft earplugs and asked him to plug Nan Yuanman's ears.
With the earplugs, Nan Yuanman finally recovered a bit, and her originally pale face regained some color. At least she had the energy to eat.
As Nan Yuanman ate, she introspectively examined her spiritual platform, remembering how much merit she had accumulated yesterday…
Upon seeing this, the little dumpling was stunned.
The altar was completely empty, with only three or four strands of golden light of merit remaining. The forty or fifty strands of merit she had seen last night, which could have almost filled the entire altar, had all disappeared!
What about her merits?
Where did they all go?!
Nan Yuanman then realized that a portion of her merits seemed to have been consumed by the glassy heart in her mind!
The little dumpling looked completely wilted.
When Feng Zining arrived, he saw Nan Yuanman looking at the bone broth in front of him with teary eyes.
He frowned slightly, walked over and sat down in front of her, and asked softly, "Are you still feeling unwell?"
"It hurts, it hurts so much my heart feels like it's going to fall out..." Nan Yuanman said, pouting, on the verge of tears.
She already had a hard time supporting her grandfather with her merits, and now this Hundred Fox Goddess's heart, which she stuffed into her brain, was trying to steal her merits too!
Waaaaah! Why is her life so miserable!
She really wants to return it, sob sob...
Feng Zining frowned: "Don't talk nonsense. With me and Dad here, we won't let anything happen to you."
He didn't know how to comfort her, but he couldn't bear to see her so listless, so he forced a conversation: "When you're better, your cousin will take you to a banquet and we'll eat lots of delicious food, okay?"
Nan Yuanman was still mourning the loss of his merits when he heard Feng Zining say that, and subconsciously looked up to look at his face.
Upon closer inspection, she indeed noticed something amiss.
She blinked and asked in a soft voice, "Fourth Brother, do you have a girlfriend?"
