The Liang residence, which everyone eagerly awaited.
Liang Xin was indeed using a hair growth secret recipe that his wife, Xia, had found out from outside.
Despite his serious illness these days, Liang Xin had a large bucket of ginger juice brought to him to wash his hair.
"Make more, make more! What's the point of saving this little bit?" Liang Xin felt a handful of ginger juice being smeared on his head, but he still felt it was too little.
He hasn't been to class for the past few days. Every day when he's at home, he can't help but take out a mirror to look at the large patch of scalp on his head. The white scalp looks like blooming white flowers among his black hair, which is quite unsettling to look at.
He hasn't had that nightmare for the past two days, but he still feels uneasy.
The more his hair didn't look good, the more worried he became.
Will that demon Lin Wanyue come and take his head at any moment?
After all, this is really not a difficult task for a prodigy!
Especially when he looked at the alopecia areata on his head, he became even more convinced of this.
The servant sent to find the Taoist priest has not yet returned with a reply.
"Get out of my way, I'll do it!" Madam Xia pushed away the frail maid, had someone bring over a water ladle, scooped out a large spoonful of ginger juice, and poured it directly onto his head.
"Ouch—ouch!" A burning pain shot through Liang Xin's scalp, and he instinctively frowned. "This is too hot... It's been like this for so many days, and I haven't seen any results. Can this method really work?"
“But there aren’t many people in our whole county who have had alopecia areata. I’ve just heard that this remedy is good for treating baldness, so it should work.” Madam Xia helped him rub the ginger juice into his scalp. The ginger juice was hot, and Liang Xin frowned in pain, but he didn’t stop.
Seeing him wince from the spiciness, Madam Xia couldn't help but say, "I really don't know why you had to provoke the Lin family. Now you've caused trouble. Even the higher-ups have sent word that although they're beating up Zhang Xiangyang's gang, isn't that also a slap in your face?"
Upon hearing his wife mention this, Liang Xin's face immediately turned icy cold.
He's been sick these past few days, and half of the reason is because of this.
He hadn't expected the Jiang family to be so loyal to Lin Wanyue, spending money to find help in the provincial capital just to avenge that monster.
"Why are you saying all this?" Liang Xin said coldly.
"I'm not doing this for you..." Madam Xia pinched his hair, but found several broken strands lying in her palm. She quickly and discreetly tossed the broken strands aside and said softly:
"Ahem, I'm only doing this for your own good. Think about it, I've heard that Master Li is quite capable, but he also said that the little Lin family kid isn't some kind of monster. Why do you have to go against him?"
"Ha, that useless thing! Just because he says she's not a demon doesn't mean she isn't! I think he just couldn't handle her and wanted to escape, so he found her. Such an excuse! If that girl wasn't a demon, how could she have caused me to end up like this?" Liang Xin's anger surged. If he weren't lying down washing his hair and unable to move around easily, he would have been driven away by his wife.
Madam Xia continued to persuade him: "Are you stupid? Even if it's true, so what? Master Li is a Taoist priest with some skills, and even he couldn't handle it, which only proves that the little kid is very powerful. Even if it's a demon, it's a powerful demon!"
"Even if you hire someone else, you might not be able to handle it, and you might even provoke her more! Besides, if she really is a demon, do you think you'll just lose a few hairs? You'd probably lose your head too!"
"..." Liang Xin remained silent.
He remained silent, but in his heart he did agree with what his wife had said.
Ever since that dream, Liang Xin had been terrified of this matter.
He felt that his dream and the incident of alopecia areata were caused by Lin Wanyue. But if that was the case, and the girl was able to accomplish these two things without anyone noticing, she could also kill him in his dream!
It will still go unnoticed by anyone.
"What can I do?" Liang Xin remained silent for a long time before finally giving up.
Madam Xia's eyes flickered, and seeing his wavering, she quickly said, "Master, since we can't deal with her, why don't we just treat her like a goddess, like Master Li did?"
“What if they show mercy because of our devout worship? Wouldn’t that be a good thing? Besides, I’ve never heard of anyone dying in this county because of her. On the contrary, she’s helped you catch bandits a few times, sir. Isn’t that a great thing?”
Liang Xin had always harbored resentment towards Lin Weiming for his unwillingness to serve him, and he always wanted to find an opportunity to get revenge.
Therefore, he often treated Lin Weiming and the Lin family as enemies.
But upon hearing his wife's words, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and suddenly realized the truth.
A powerful enemy is certainly not a good thing!
But what if we turn enemies into friends...?
If he could use Lin Wanyue's powerful strength to his own advantage, wouldn't he have gained a powerful and capable ally?
You should know that killing a lot of bandits can be considered a political achievement!
If he has a proven track record, why would he worry about not having a chance to be promoted?
"That makes sense!" Liang Xin, disregarding the ginger juice covering his head, quickly scrambled to his feet. Just as he was about to grasp Madam Xia's hand, he suddenly let out a scream.
"Aww—"
It turned out that the ginger juice on his head had flowed down his head and into his eyes. The burning pain was bearable on his scalp, but it was like torture when it got into his eyes.
After some effort, Liang Xinzhong finally washed the ginger juice off his hair. With tears in his eyes, he held Madam Xia's hand and asked, "Madam, your words are more valuable than years of reading! But what should I do? I can't possibly apologize to such a child, can I?"
"My lord, what's wrong with that? Since that little brat is so capable, why don't you go and apologize? Even if word gets out, it will be a story of buying bones with a thousand pieces of gold. Besides, as an adult, you can bend down and apologize to a little brat. If she is a magnanimous demon, how could she not forgive you?" Madam Xia smiled sweetly.
"Hmm...that makes sense!" Liang Xin nodded, convincing himself.
Actually, he couldn't think of a better way, but he was just too embarrassed to do it.
Now, after being persuaded by his wife, Liang Xin felt that this was not something unacceptable.
Perhaps because she had figured things out and felt better, Liang Xin felt that her body, which had been feeling drowsy these past few days, seemed to be feeling better as well.
He made a quick decision and went to the Lin family's house alone that night.
Although he had promised to apologize to Lin Wanyue and ask for her forgiveness, he still wanted to save face and didn't want others to see it, so he didn't bring any servants with him.
At night, someone knocked on the Lin family's door—
