After Lin Chenyi finished speaking, he looked at the stunned Nan Yuanman and, fearing she might not understand what the word "shake off" meant, raised both hands in a separating motion: "It means you've broken up with her. Do you understand?"
"I know." Nan Yuanman crossed her short arms and nodded. In the past, when Aunt Zheng and the others chatted, they often talked about which girl in the next village had dumped which boy.
She knew that when the word "甩" (shuǎi) is used in the context of romantic relationships, it means to break up.
Nan Yuanman looked puzzled: "But didn't you say you wanted three babies? It's not easy to find a girl willing to have your child, why do you want to break up with her?"
Lin Chenyi chuckled awkwardly, scratched his head, and said embarrassedly, "It's because I was young and impetuous back then, and I hadn't seen much of the world. I just wanted to follow my parents' arrangements, get married and have children when I reached a certain age, and live a life according to the established order..."
But after joining Wild Hunt Studio and participating in gaming competitions, he saw so many new things and was unwilling to be tied down by his child so early.
"Besides, isn't there a saying going around these days? Marriage is the grave of love, and I don't want to go to the grave so early."
So even though that girl was gentle, kind, considerate, and family-oriented, Lin Chenyi still painfully broke up with her.
“But…” Lin Chenyi said hesitantly, “After we broke up, she… died in a car accident.”
Lin Chenyi touched his nose and continued, "I was still playing in a competition when she had the accident. By the time I heard the news and rushed over, it was too late. Her body had already been properly taken care of by the police."
"Little Master," Lin Chenyi pursed his lips and asked, "Do you think it's possible that she... is the animal that begged for a title that I met in the countryside before?"
“Because I wasn’t there when the accident happened, she blames me and that’s why she’s bothering me now.”
After listening to Lin Chenyi's explanation, Nan Yuanman's round little face showed a look of realization. No wonder there was a red line between the weasel on the big brother's back and him.
So that's what happened.
She touched her chin with her chubby little hand, trying to think like an adult: "That's a possibility, but if this weasel had such a past with you, it will be hard to get rid of it."
"Because what you did, big brother, was really unfair!"
Nan Yuanman imagined what would happen if she painstakingly cultivated, only to encounter a person spouting nonsense when she was seeking a title, claiming that she was his gentle and kind wife who had given birth to triplets.
Because of that one sentence, a cause and effect relationship was formed between us.
She must accomplish everything this man has said in order to have any chance of successfully obtaining the title.
She finally came to that man's side, became his girlfriend, and then his wife. When she wanted to take the next step and have a child, she encountered his strong opposition, which even led to their separation. As a result, she failed to obtain the title, her cultivation regressed, and she died...
It's only because she's kind that she didn't just kill Lin Chenyi.
Lin Chenyi wore a bitter expression, a hint of regret rising in his heart: "What should I do? I didn't mean to... Who knew the animal petition was real?"
Nan Yuanman looked up again at the ferocious weasel on his back, waved his little paw in front of it, but it acted as if it didn't see him, still staring intently at Lin Chenyi.
Nan Yuanman frowned: "Big brother, what's the name of the girl who's going to have your child?"
"Huang Xueyan, her name is Huang Xueyan."
“I’ll try to see if I can bring her back to her senses and talk to her.” Nan Yuanman rummaged through her small satchel, taking out her tools, and asked him, “Big brother, are you sure you’ve told her everything? Are you hiding anything?”
Lin Chenyi touched his nose, a hint of guilt flashing in his eyes, and forced a smile: "No, that's all."
Before Nan Yuanman could ask further, Lin Chenyi continued, "Little Master, is there anything I can do for you?"
"No need, you can just sit on the bed." Nan Yuanman pulled out a talisman and a thin red string.
Her fingers deftly folded the talisman into a triangle, tied it in the middle with a red string, and left the two sides long.
Then, Dada stepped forward, stood on tiptoe to let Lin Chenyi extend his left hand, and tied one end of the red string to Lin Chenyi's little finger. Lin Chenyi looked puzzled: "What is this...?"
"Oh, because this is just a wisp of a weasel's soul. It has no consciousness. If I want to communicate with it, I need to use your body as a bridge."
As Nan Yuanman spoke, he tied the other end of the red string to his little finger as well.
Then, she pulled out a small bowl, no bigger than her palm, grabbed a handful of white rice from her cloth bag, and put it into the bowl.
He then took out three more purple incense sticks and lit them.
Lin Chenyi watched her take things out one by one, and couldn't help but look curiously at her small handbag. This small handbag could hold a lot of things, just like Doraemon's magic pocket.
If Nan Yuanman could hear his inner thoughts, she would definitely tell him that what could be contained was not a small handbag, but her small coffin.
Most of her work tools were kept in a small coffin; her handbag was just a cover.
After doing all this, Nan Yuanman started chanting incantations, and Lin Chenyi nervously reached out and grabbed her mouth: "Wait a minute!"
Nan Yuanman, pouting: "?"
Lin Chenyi swallowed hard and asked her, "Will I be alright?"
Nan Yuanman shook her head, pulled his hand off with the one that wasn't tied with the red thread, and patted her small chest loudly: "Don't worry, with me here, I guarantee you won't be in any trouble."
She reiterated, "As long as you haven't hidden anything else from me."
Lin Chenyi touched his nose and coughed lightly: "Don't worry, I have absolutely nothing to hide."
Nan Yuanman stared at him with her dark, bright eyes for a long time, making Lin Chenyi feel uneasy, before she finally spoke softly, "Then I'll trust you this once, big brother."
Lin Chenyi forced a smile.
Nan Yuanman's small face was serious. He made hand seals and murmured an incantation: "Heaven and earth, yin and yang, all living things... Use the talisman to balance, use incense to guide, and summon the ghost as before..."
As the childish chanting began, the blood-red weasel that had been lying on Lin Chenyi's back, its slightly dull eyes, became much more lively.
Its soul was gradually drawn into Lin Chenyi's body by the wisps of incense burning in Nan Yuanman.
This was Lin Chenyi's first time encountering such supernatural things. His body was tense, and he couldn't help but hold his breath, staring intently at Nan Yuanman.
His vision gradually blurred as Nan Yuanman chanted the incantation, and finally, everything went black, and his consciousness completely disappeared.
Nan Yuanman watched the rapidly burning purple smoke and knew that the soul possession had been successfully induced. She stared intently at Lin Chenyi, whose eyes were closed.
She opened her mouth, about to speak, when she saw Lin Chenyi, who had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly open them, his brownish eyes filled with a beastly ruthlessness.
Nan Yuanman quickly greeted her, "Sister Huang Xueyan—!!"
Before she could finish speaking, she saw Huang Xueyan, who was possessing 'Lin Chenyi', suddenly reach for the fruit knife on the bedside table and swiftly stab it into her abdomen.
Nanmanyuan: "!!!"
Feng Yuli, who happened to be passing by, exclaimed: "!!!"
Shen Mengjie, returning from buying drinks: "!!!"
