When they arrived here, their daughter was in great pain, her body was covered in bumps, she was gasping for breath, and even her face had turned blue. They were terrified; they almost lost their precious baby.
"MoMo, are you alright? Baby, is there anything else that's bothering you?"
How did you manage? Aren't you supposed to be sensitive to sunlight?
"Momo, are you feeling unwell anywhere? Let Daddy take a look."
The Taoist priest also found it strange, but it didn't matter anymore. "Your young lady was able to come here because Lin Xi helped her bear the pain just now..."
"Taoist Master!" Mo Yan interrupted the Taoist Master, "You still haven't answered me. Why is it that I have no relation to this girl and no connection with her whatsoever, so how can she help me bear this pain?"
Don't you Taoists say that you value fate? There has to be a reason, right?
"It can't be that this girl's illness is her suffering, because she's taking my place. If that's the case, then everyone in the world who's unwell is suffering on my behalf."
Previously, Yun's parents were too worried about their daughter to investigate further. Later, feeling sorry for the child, they were swayed by Lin Xi and naturally believed this reason even more.
After not seeing each other for several years, Lin Xi became well-behaved, sensible, and knowledgeable, while their daughter knew nothing and only caused Lin Xi pain. Gradually, their hearts were bewitched, and they sided with Lin Xi, whom they felt very guilty about.
Their daughter's soft voice brought them back to reality. Yes, their daughter was right. Even if the child wasn't feeling well, how could they be so sure it was because of their daughter?
“You saw it yourselves. I saved your daughter when she was feeling unwell. Now Lin Xi is experiencing the same pain as your daughter, while your daughter is completely unharmed. Doesn’t that prove it?”
The Taoist priest was utterly speechless. Were they trying to renege on their promise?
He quickly ordered the Gu worm to attack Mo Yan, but nothing happened. Instead, Lin Xi was in excruciating pain.
At first, Lin Xi was able to endure it, but soon she was rolling on the ground in pain, and Mo Yan quickly came to her parents' side.
"Mom and Dad, you see I'm fine now, but isn't this person suffering too?"
"Is the Taoist priest going to say that it's precisely because she's in pain that I'm not in pain? That's far-fetched."
Seeing his slight panic, Mo Yan continued speaking with a dark expression.
The Taoist priest: "..." Why is this little girl so difficult to deal with? Shouldn't they all be bewitched?
The Taoist priest looked at Mo Yan and could only grit his teeth and speak, his voice tinged with confusion.
"Isn't that right? Lin Xi took on the pain for you."
Upon hearing this, Yun's parents, for some reason, felt that the Taoist priest was absolutely right.
Mo Yan stretched out her hand and shook it twice.
Among Mo Yan's belongings was a string of bells, given to her by the original owner's grandfather. They had been sealed away for some reason, but Mo Yan had just broken the seal.
The sound of the bell rang, startling Yun's parents and instantly pulling them back to reality.
Seeing this, Mo Yan snorted and then spoke.
"What's the reason? What's the justification? Why is this happening? You have to tell me why. You haven't said anything or shown us any proof. You just want my parents to bring this girl to live with us."
They also had to pamper this girl, and I was living in this place, in this place where there wasn't even an electric light.
"I have no family, no friends. Even if you kill me or sell me, my parents won't even know."
After she finished speaking, Mo Yan looked at them with a pitiful expression, her eyes filled with glistening tears. She looked at them sadly and asked, "Mom and Dad, don't you love me anymore? Otherwise, how could you bear to leave me in such a place?"
Aren't you afraid you'll never find me again?
Their daughter's words suddenly brought them to their senses. Yes, how could they leave their daughter here alone?
There's no cell phone signal here, so they wouldn't even know if their daughter had an accident here. How could they entrust their daughter to this Taoist priest they just met?
Seeing that they had regained consciousness, Mo Yan continued, "Mom and Dad, I know you've been very worried about me. How can you abandon me and take someone else back with you?"
The couple was heartbroken by their daughter's cries and quickly hugged her, saying, "Don't cry, don't cry. It's all Mommy and Daddy's fault. We won't abandon you."
Yun's father then looked at the Taoist priest and said, "Taoist priest, my daughter is right. We will never let anyone else take her place."
"But……"
Mo Yan interrupted her father, "Dad, you're wrong. It's really not certain whether this Taoist priest wants to help me or harm me."
Yun's father: "???"
Mica: "???"
Seeing her parents' puzzled looks, Mo Yan slowly spoke, "Isn't that right? This so-called 'big rise' means you're leaving me here to suffer, while Lin Xi goes home and becomes your little princess, pampered by you in every way. Maybe then you'll feel sorry for Lin Xi suffering for me, and feel guilty."
As for me, I am a stranger in this place, with no relatives or friends, and I can only listen to this Taoist priest and that Haoxuan.
"In time, you might forget about me, your daughter, altogether."
Mo Ming was extremely shocked; he never expected his daughter to say something so mature.
But his daughter was right; how could he leave her here alone?
