"Big brother trying to act like second brother?" Ah Chen said again.
Actually, she wasn’t afraid of being found out; otherwise, she wouldn’t be so open about it.
Both Yu Xiaoran and Lu Fengqiu have shared secrets that they currently don’t want exposed to the public.
But with Lu Wangqiu’s personality, if he knew Lu Mingxue’s attitude, he might not be able to hold it in.
Ah Chen leisurely ate her al, while Bai Ying, who was starving, was too frightened to have much appetite. She quickly ate a few bites and dashed upstairs.
She sowhat dared not face Bai Chen, always feeling that beneath Bai Chen’s beautiful and gentle exterior hides a very fierce side.
Unfortunately, Lu Fengqiu usually doesn’t like snacks, so there really isn’t anything to eat in the room. Her stomach felt uncomfortable from hunger, and she didn’t dare go down to get food.
Ah Chen didn’t plan to go out today and stayed ho, not returning to her room, but playing on her phone in the living room, occasionally ssaging Ji Wuyan.
Ah Chen: According to my guess, the Nightingale Clan’s calamity is to possess soone else’s body for trials, but wouldn’t this cause irreparable trouble for the body’s owner? Is this really okay? When they take control of the body, they lose mory, seeming innocent, while clearing their own responsibility. The body’s owner can’t find them, and even if they do, there’s probably no way to deal with them. Can such a family really exist?
Ji Wuyan: Mysterious Families have a long history, with people in various industries. It’s indeed very difficult for an ordinary person to take them down, often having to suffer in silence. Besides, in a family like the Nightingale Clan, their mbers can’t take human form before adulthood, and even then, very few get the chance to beco human. As far as I know, Nightingale Clan mbers are quite rare, and they’ve always been secretive, disliking interaction with us. Every Mysterious Family has their own calamity. The calamity is a secret, but the longer you’re in touch, the more you can guess it, just like us in the Frog Clan. But we aren’t afraid of other families knowing.
Because their calamity is turning into frogs on rainy nights, who knows where they will end up?
Except for mortal enemies, if they really encounter one, they might take extra care, and this way, the Frog Clan would owe them a favor.
But when they beco frogs and remain silent, they’re just ordinary frogs, and Mysterious Families find it hard to sense their presence.
Moreover, Mysterious Families also don’t have the ti to engage in such matters.
Ji Wuyan: I have already shared my theory about the Nightingale Clan with my parents. They said that this behavior is not allowed among Mysterious Families as it disturbs human order, and over ti, it can be detrintal for the Mysterious Families too. You never know, soday soone powerful might co along and try to eliminate all the Mysterious Families. The Mysterious Families will investigate them, and once they have evidence, they will take asures, definitely not letting the Nightingale Clan continue like this.
Ah Chen: That’s good.
Ji Wuyan: My parents suspect that their calamity might not be like that, possibly exploiting loopholes.
Ah Chen: That makes sense.
She also had so guesses about this; it’s inevitable that loopholes can be exploited whether it’s humans or others.
Ji Wuyan: I know of a Turtle Clan. Their calamity is appearing in the sea on specific dates when they reach adulthood. Actually, from what I understand, most Mysterious Families revert to their original form to undergo calamities; only a few change into humans after adulthood. The Nightingale Clan does it differently, being birds before adulthood isn’t strange, but only turning into humans after adulthood, and even possessing living bodies, is obviously peculiar.
Ah Chen: There’s one thing I’m very curious about.
Ji Wuyan: What is it?
Ah Chen: Are both your parents from the Frog Clan?
Ji Wuyan: My dad is, but my mom isn’t. It’s rare but possible for mbers of the Frog Clan to fall in love with one another. Mysterious Families, apart from having calamities and so unique talents, are otherwise similar to ordinary people, experiencing birth, old age, illness, and death. For us in the Frog Clan, once we marry soone we love, we stay human and never revert to our original form again. Ordinary people who are with us benefit from sharing the Frog Clan’s lifespan, never suffering from illnesses, not even minor colds.
Ah Chen: What if one day love fades? Would you revert to your original form?
Ji Wuyan: ...
Ji Wuyan: So far, that has not happened. According to the Frog Clan’s history, true love ans staying together for a lifeti. Once a Frog Clan mber gets emotionally attached, they’ll consider that person their whole world. That person already likes the Frog Clan, so there probably won’t be a lack of love, right? But based on my guess, if the human side genuinely stops loving, it wouldn’t have any impact; the Frog Clan mber just won’t like another person.
Ah Chen: I see. Mr. Frog, rest assured, I won’t let you be the precedent. Think about it, if it happens, you’d leave a heavy mark in Frog Clan’s history, subject to all kinds of speculation from future generations. Quite a tragic scenario.
Ji Wuyan breathed a sigh of relief, amused by the conversation.
Yu Xingfan, after being warned, went abroad. His rebirth was exposed by Yu Xiaoran, and since he knew he couldn’t cause trouble, he stopped paying attention to dostic news.
He only found out two days ago that Yu Xiaoran had issues, allegedly mory loss.
He felt things weren’t simple, saw an opportunity, and hastily returned without visiting ho, going to find Yu Xiaoran first.
By coincidence, Yu Xiaoran wasn’t at the company today because he was punched by Lu Wangqiu yesterday, leaving him with a facial injury. Currently, there aren’t any problems with Yu Family, no urgent need to go, and he plans to take advantage of this ti to clean up the unsettling presences.
Notified by the butler that Yu Xingfan had arrived, he knew Yu Xingfan ca to see the show, possibly stir up so trouble.
Luckily, he returned now; if Bai Ying were controlling his body, there’s no telling what Yu Xingfan would do, definitely uncontrollable.
"Cousin, heard you were sick?" Yu Xingfan walked in with a face full of excitent, eting Yu Xiaoran’s icy stare that stiffened his smile— was he actually fine now?
Or was this just a fake story released by Yu Xiaoran?
Yu Xiaoran pointed at the file folder on the table: "Open it and see whether you’re going abroad or staying in China."
Unless the current dilemma is resolved, Yu Xiaoran won’t let Yu Xingfan off so easily, but he also can’t send him to jail, lest a cornered rat bites.
After reading it, Yu Xingfan’s face turned grim and he said through gritted teeth, "Then let cousin arrange for soone to book my ticket."
He definitely does not want to go to jail.
He’s sowhat aware of Yu Xiaoran’s thoughts, but similarly he doesn’t want to push him into desperation.
Yu Xiaoran nodded, "Okay."
Having dealt with Yu Xingfan, Yu Xiaoran returned to the Yu Family.
The Yu Family patriarch, knowing he returned, breathed a sigh of relief. He didn’t explain the specifics, only saying he’ll handle it, so Yu Beiyuan didn’t ask further, letting him decide.
Having found out Lu Fengqiu didn’t go to the company and the Lu Family didn’t cause any trouble, Yu Xiaoran decided to visit the Lu Family and et Bai Ying.
He believed going now wouldn’t cause any issues.
Upon entering the Lu Family, he saw Ah Chen sitting on the couch playing with her phone.
Facing her smiling face, he instinctively glanced away.
He heard her say, "Rember to go with to handle the procedures when the ti cos. You must keep your promises."
"I know, I won’t break my word." Yu Xiaoran felt a bit annoyed but knew he couldn’t provoke her now by refusing to divorce as leverage.
Otherwise, she could easily put Bai Ying into his body, and that experience would be quite unpleasant.
Finally, he t Bai Ying, seeing her occupying Lu Fengqiu’s body, making Yu Xiaoran feel sowhat strange.
"Rest assured, I’m just here to check in, the previous incidents weren’t your fault," he said.
Bai Ying will return to her own body eventually, she can’t stay here forever, and now there’s a chance to get along, which he certainly won’t miss.
Bai Ying felt relieved, then had an expression of dismay: "She’s quite clever, planned to record audio to expose her but got discovered."
"No rush, we’ll figure it out slowly."
anwhile, Lu Mingxue was trying to contact the Bai Family.
However, hearing it was Lu Mingxue approaching, no response ca. Due to past incidents, it’s likely hard for his ssages to reach the Bai Family mbers eardrums, and he couldn’t openly speak of it, since outsiders knowing would be unfavorable.
Ultimately, he thought of a thod, contacting Bai Jingwei’s agent.
