Lin Zhilu glanced at Xiao Hu a few more times.
Seeing Xiao Hu's pale face, Qi Zhiyang stood beside Lin Zhiluo and asked, "Did you figure something out?"
He was confident in himself, but Xiao Hu was definitely not Lin Zhiluo's type.
“He went to a place of great evil a few days ago, and now he’s surrounded by evil energy. He’s going to have some bad luck these next few days,” Lin Zhiluo said. Then she whispered to Qi Zhiyang, “Stay away from him. If you get tainted by his evil energy, you’ll have bad luck too.”
Xiao Hu had a sullen face. Did this Master Lin think she was speaking very softly?
"Master Lin, please come in." Xiao Hu respectfully invited him in. He had lived in the capital since childhood, and later, after joining the official army, he also encountered problems that science could not solve.
The higher he climbed, the more he came into contact with, and the more he realized that the world was far more complex than he had ever seen.
However, looking at the beautiful and young Lin Zhiluo in front of him, he was somewhat skeptical that she could handle his nephew's problem.
They've tried everything at home, even hiring a master, who's currently inside watching over things.
Lin Zhiluo and Qi Zhiyang also went in. Their two young and beautiful faces did not attract the attention of the group of masters at all.
However, when they came in, the white-bearded old man sitting in his seat looked at Lin Zhiluo with shining eyes.
Lin Zhilu nodded to him.
Yao Wanning immediately stepped forward: "Master Lin, please go and see my son."
Lin Zhiluo nodded. She and Yao Wanning went upstairs: "Is your son awake or asleep now?"
Yao Wanning said anxiously, "She's already asleep. If she were awake, I wouldn't dare bring anyone over."
"If you take people to his room, won't he wake up?"
"No, he's a very deep sleeper. No matter how loud we make noise, he won't wake up."
Lin Zhiluo turned to look at her: "How did you find out that your son was not right?"
“My son is usually very lively and cheerful, but lately he has become very withdrawn, and his daily habits are changing. I unintentionally tested him with something from the past, and he actually got it wrong. There are some things that only my husband, my wife, and our child know.”
“He was very familiar with this house, but he mostly just looked around. One time he fell asleep and I didn’t know, so I called him to have a midnight snack, but I couldn’t wake him up no matter what I did. Even the family doctor came.”
“I kept an eye on him from then on, because I couldn’t wake him up every night.”
"These aren't enough to get you to bring in so many masters. What happened to make you think in this direction?"
Yao Wanning whispered, "One day he fell asleep, but he suddenly opened his eyes and told me to save him. He said he was Yuanwei, and my son's name is Xiao Yuanwei. He said he was kicked out and that the person inside his body was not him."
"And then what?"
Yao Wanning shook her head: "After that, he stopped making any noise. I got a little scared, so I ran out and told my husband about it."
Lin Zhilu nodded: "I understand about this."
As soon as she entered Xiao Yuanwei's room, she was noticed by Xiao Yuanwei, who had already woken up.
"Mom, who is she?"
"This is Lin Zhiluo, she came to visit with your Uncle Qi," Yao Wanning said with a smile. "We have many guests, and I'm here to ask you to greet them."
They were afraid of alerting the enemy, and since today happened to be Xiao Mingzhi's birthday, the Xiao family secretly invited a group of masters to the hospital behind Xiao Yuanwei's back.
"Hello." Lin Zhilu looked at Xiao Yuanwei.
She turned to look at Yao Wanning: "What about that set of jewelry you told me about before?"
“Baby, go downstairs when you wake up, Mommy has something to do.”
After saying that, they left with Lin Zhiluo. Their acting was so natural that Xiao Yuanwei didn't notice anything unusual.
He looked at his body, and his soul and body seemed to be more in sync. He was now sleeping less and less. If one day he didn't have to sleep during the day, he would have succeeded.
Xiao Yuanwei knew it was Xiao Mingzhi's birthday, but when he went downstairs and saw the people in the living room, he flinched for a moment. He had never met so many guests before.
"Useless trash, you're not even as good as Xiao Yuanwei's hair."
At that moment, the words of suppression he had heard before flashed through his mind.
He slowly walked out.
He is now Xiao Yuanwei. He is no longer a child disliked by his parents. He is now the chosen one whom he admires.
Lin Zhiluo watched from a distance: "This isn't your son, it's someone else, but..."
She narrowed her eyes: "What's interesting is that their souls are very compatible. After some time, his body and soul will be able to integrate well. As for your real son, without a physical body, he should be..."
She quickly calculated that the Xiao family had already given Lin Zhiluo his birth date and time before she arrived.
She chuckled, and Xiao Mingzhi and Xiao Hu both looked at Lin Zhiluo nervously.
Knowing he was concerned about his son, Xiao Ming asked anxiously, "Master Lin, what are you laughing at? How is my son?"
“If your son were to enter the other person’s body, he could live for a while longer. But I’ve calculated that your son’s soul is currently wandering outside, and he will be completely destroyed in three or four days.”
"What!" Upon hearing this, Yao Wanning immediately burst into tears, and almost couldn't stand up.
Xiao Mingzhi immediately helped Yao Wanning up, and Lin Zhiluo looked at her and said, "This matter is easy to handle. Don't worry, I'm here. Even if your son goes to the underworld, I have a way to bring him back."
Watching the commotion below, Lin Zhiluo said to the three people beside her, "Don't let your son notice anything unusual for now. Once he's asleep tonight, I'll force his soul out, and then you two, taking his body, will go find his soul."
Xiao Hu looked at Lin Zhiluo in astonishment: "You know where his soul is trapped?"
"I know, it's in a small villa complex to the west."
Lin Zhiluo was able to divine that Xiao Yuanwei's soul was in the West.
She thought for a moment and asked, "Do you have any siblings or close relatives living in the villa complex to the west, or a child about the same age as your son?"
"Yes..." Upon hearing Lin Zhiluo's words, Xiao Mingzhi immediately remembered that he had a younger brother.
"Xiao Mingzhi, if anything happens to my son, don't blame me for being ruthless towards him." Yao Wanning looked at Xiao Mingzhi with a deep gaze.
Xiao Mingzhi said in a deep voice, "Let's find our son first. Once he's safe, I'll handle this matter properly."
Lin Zhiluo wasn't interested in their family's affairs, but seeing her so calm, Xiao Hu couldn't help but ask her, "Aren't you curious?"
"What's there to be curious about? That family is just an illegitimate child of your family's older generation. Your old man has always favored him, but he envies the life of you two brothers even more. This whole thing was caused by his greed."
“I believe you are a master now,” Xiao Hu said.
Lin Zhiluo sat down next to Qi Zhiyang, sipping her tea while looking at Xiao Yuanwei.
Xiao Yuanwei met her gaze and then quickly looked away, feeling as if this beautiful woman had seen right through him.
