Chapter 706: Loss of Vitality
"What are you thinking about?"
Lu Yichen suddenly spoke up, interrupting Zhong Nianyao's thoughts, "You've been in a daze so early in the morning, has something happened?"
This morning, he went to the Zhong family, picked up Zhong Nianyao, and had breakfast together. However, not long after, he saw Zhong Nianyao holding her chin in a daze.
Hearing Lu Yichen's voice, Zhong Nianyao also came back to her senses. She shook her head, thought for a moment, and then said, "After returning to the Zhong family this time, I discovered something very strange."
"What's wrong?" Lu Yichen felt a little strange. "Did something happen?"
"Yeah," Zhong Nianyao nodded and continued, "Zhong Mengfan came to see me last night."
Hearing Zhong Mengfan's name, Lu Yichen subconsciously frowned, "She's looking for trouble with you again. She's really a ghost that won't go away."
"That's not the case." Zhong Nianyao shook her head. "She just wants to know who the person who once possessed her was."
In fact, until now, she still didn't know who that person was. However, she was certain that person must know her and hate her to the core. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to call out her name.
She did not forget that before the thing disappeared, it called out the name "Yao Xi".
Lu Yichen frowned slightly, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes, "No matter who that person is, since she dares to hurt you again and again, she must not be let off."
"That person is indeed a hidden danger." Zhong Nianyao nodded and continued, "However, the most important thing now is not to resolve the danger in that position, but Zhong Mengfan's physical condition."
"Zhong Mengfan, is she in trouble?" Lu Yichen's tone was very flat, without any ups and downs. "When I saw her yesterday, she was still as vigorous as ever!"
He did not forget that Zhong Mengfan had been targeting Zhong Nian Yao yesterday.
"It's true that you can't tell anything from the surface." Zhong Nianyao frowned and said, "However, last night, I took the opportunity to check on her physical condition. Her body functions are very poor, and she has lost a lot of vitality. If she continues like this, Zhong Mengfan will soon be unable to hold on."
"Lose vitality?" Lu Yichen couldn't help but frown. "Could it be the sequelae of being possessed by that thing before?"
"That should be it." Zhong Nianyao nodded. "Although I don't know who that person is, or to be more precise, it's not a person. The person behind it must be quite powerful. It's because she is too powerful that Zhong Mengfan's body simply can't accommodate her. So when she possessed Zhong Mengfan, she absorbed a lot of his vitality as nutrients."
"Even if I hadn't expelled that thing from Zhong Mengfan's body, she wouldn't have been able to hold on for much longer."
A hint of indifference flashed across Lu Yichen's eyes. "When we get back, we'll investigate thoroughly and find out who it is. Besides, she should still have my evil spirit lingering on her."
"Right now, she must still be suffering from the pain brought by that evil spirit!"
After hearing Lu Yichen's words, Zhong Nianyao's eyes lit up, "I almost forgot about this matter. The evil spirit from Yi Huai has been transferred to that person. It seems that it will be easier to find that person after we go back."
"Letting her suffer for a while will earn her some interest." Lu Yichen said calmly, "After we return, we'll settle the debt with her, both principal and interest."
Zhong Nianyao nodded. "Zhong Mengfan should be having an attack soon. I just don't know what will happen then."
"Her problem isn't serious, is it?" Lu Yichen said calmly, "Losing vitality isn't a difficult thing to deal with, and it's not difficult to solve."
"That's what I said, but it also depends on how others react!" Zhong Nianyao blinked and continued, "If no one is willing to sacrifice, then she will definitely not get better."
Lu Yichen nodded, then placed the peeled eggs on Zhong Nianyao's plate with a gentle smile on his face. "Don't think too much, eat quickly! Thinking too much while eating can easily lead to indigestion!"
"Yeah." Zhong Nianyao nodded, then checked the time, "Then where are we going?"
"Let me go shopping with you first, and then go to the movies!" Lu Yichen said his plan with a smile, and asked, "What about you? Is there anywhere else you want to go?"
Zhong Nianyao shook her head. "I'll leave it to you to arrange. I'll listen to you today. I don't have to worry about anything."
Lu Yichen reached out and touched Zhong Nianyao's hair.
The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere around them became ambiguous.
The atmosphere on this side is sweet, but not so good on the other side.
Above the Nine Heavens, inside a holy white palace—
All the furnishings in the palace are mainly white, but they do not appear dull. Instead, they carry a holy atmosphere.
At that moment, on the bed in the bedroom, a woman in white was curled up in agony, her teeth biting her lips, which were already oozing a little blood. Her hands were clenched tightly, and her sharp nails had already dug into the flesh, bringing out a little bit of blood.
It was obvious that the woman in white was in great pain. Her forehead was covered in cold sweat, and her white clothes were gradually becoming damp.
When I turned around, I saw the woman in pain on the bed. She had a delicate oval face, curved eyebrows, long eyelashes, and a small, rosy mouth. She had closed her eyes in pain, but I could almost imagine how beautiful she would be when she opened them.
Even though she was in great pain, her beauty was not diminished at all. If anyone were here, they would definitely be fascinated by her sickly appearance.
Two maids were standing by the bed, their expressions filled with panic and fear. Their faces were no better than the woman in white on the bed.
However, the woman in white on the bed suffered physical pain, while the two little palace maids suffered mental torture.
"Otherwise, let's go find the Medicine Fairy!" The little maid in green couldn't help but speak, "If we really continue like this, if something happens to the master, we won't be able to bear the consequences! Besides, this isn't the first time, if in the future-"
