"Trying to leave? How could you? If you leave, how will the next act play out?" the middle-aged man whispered softly.
Then, he pulled out sothing very strange from his pocket.
It seed like a flute, only it looked very miniature, about the length of a finger.
After taking out the flute, the middle-aged man placed it by his mouth and gently started playing it.
However, while the man was lost in playing, no sound actually ca out.
If anyone were to see this scene, they would surely be scared stiff. It was just too eerie.
While the middle-aged man was playing the mini flute, Wang Xiaoyan, who had been still all along, suddenly trembled for no apparent reason.
At this mont, Nangong Lifen was discussing with Wen Qixiang about whether the Life Spring could cure Wang Xiaoyan, while Liu Haoyang was applying for flight routes.
None of the three noticed this strange situation.
Wang Xiaoyan’s body just trembled once and soon returned to normal.
Yet, there was sothing still off about her body.
If any one of the three in the villa had their attention on Wang Xiaoyan, they would surely notice the eerie situation on her body.
A small bump suddenly appeared on Wang Xiaoyan’s lower abdon, which didn’t look noticeable at first glance.
This little bump was about the size of a soybean, and it looked more like a pimple.
It didn’t seem conspicuous, but what if it could move?
At this mont, that little bump hidden under Wang Xiaoyan’s skin was moving quickly towards her arm.
It moved from Wang Xiaoyan’s arm to her finger.
Soon after, a grain-sized wound mysteriously appeared on Wang Xiaoyan’s fingertip, from which a tiny black insect erged, crawling out of the window and disappearing.
At the sa ti, the middle-aged man outside the villa stopped playing the mini flute.
A black insect was resting on his finger.
The man’s gaze at the black insect was strange; it was not a look one would give to an insect but more like one would give to a lover.
Infatuated, fervent...
The scene looked quite bizarre.
The middle-aged man casually flicked his finger, and the black insect vanished.
He chuckled with satisfaction, muttering to himself, "Now, even if the Wang Family jumps into the Yellow River, they won’t wash away their suspicions. Heh, I can’t wait to see Ye Xuan and the Wang Family beco enemies again!"
After saying this, he chuckled carefreely, turned around, and left.
anwhile, the guards continued to patrol around the villa diligently, never having noticed the middle-aged man’s presence.
Not long after the man left, Wang Xiaoyan, who had been unconscious on the bed, suddenly opened her eyes.
Her eyes first showed confusion, but soon regained clarity.
Suddenly, as if rembering sothing, her face was overtaken by terror, and she scread sharply.
The scream imdiately alerted those in the villa.
They almost rushed to the bedside, only to find Wang Xiaoyan had already gotten up, curled up at the foot of the bed, holding her knees, trembling with fear.
"Xiaoyan, what’s wrong?"
Seeing Wang Xiaoyan like this, Nangong Lifen asked nervously.
"Mom, I’m scared!"
Seeing Nangong Lifen, Wang Xiaoyan threw herself into her mother’s arms, crying uncontrollably.
Nangong Lifen quickly embraced her daughter, comforting her while looking at Wen Qixiang with a puzzled gaze.
Didn’t Ye Xuan just say that their daughter couldn’t wake up after being poisoned, and Wen Qixiang had confird Ye Xuan’s words?
But what was happening now?
Why did Wang Xiaoyan suddenly wake up?
Though happy about her daughter’s awakening, Nangong Lifen couldn’t help but feel sothing was off.
Wen Qixiang looked at Wang Xiaoyan with a startled, sowhat strange expression.
Suddenly, he asked, "Madam Wang, may I check Miss Wang’s pulse?"
Mrs. Wang nodded, saying to Wang Xiaoyan, "Dear, let Dr. Wen have a look."
After crying for a while, Wang Xiaoyan finally cald down.
Yet, her earlier behavior left her feeling quite embarrassed.
Without saying a word, she extended her wrist.
Wen Qixiang placed two fingers on Wang Xiaoyan’s pulse and began diagnosing her.
Initially, his expression remained neutral, but soon, Wen Qixiang’s brow furrowed deeply.
Seeing Wen Qixiang furrowing his brow, Nangong Lifen couldn’t help but get nervous.
"It’s strange, really strange, how could this be? It’s impossible!"
After a long while, Wen Qixiang finished checking the pulse, but his expression remained peculiar, expressing continuous amazent.
Seeing Wen Qixiang’s look, Nangong Lifen hurriedly asked, "Dr. Wen, how is my daughter? Is it serious?"
Wen Qixiang replied with a smile, "Not at all. Miss Wang’s health is excellent, even better than before coming to Hai City."
Hearing Wen Qixiang say this, Nangong Lifen showed a weird expression, asking, "And the Poisonous Insect in her body?"
Upon hearing the words ’Poisonous Insect’, Wang Xiaoyan’s body trembled sharply, fear evident in her eyes.
Wen Qixiang didn’t hide the truth, saying directly, "That’s precisely what I find strange, Miss Wang no longer has the Poisonous Insect inside her."
"Disappeared?"
The others in the villa exclaid in unison.
"Indeed, the Poisonous Insect has vanished," Wen Qixiang said.
"Does this an Xiaoyan’s illness has been cured?"
Nangong Lifen exclaid excitedly, not noticing the slight tremor in her voice.
Wen Qixiang chuckled, saying, "Indeed! Congratulations, Miss Wang, you are completely healed."
"What about the insect?" Wang Xiaoyan asked weakly.
"It’s completely gone," Wen Qixiang replied.
With Wen Qixiang’s confirmation, both Nangong Lifen and Wang Xiaoyan showed expressions of joy.
Looking at her smiling daughter, for so reason, Nangong Lifen felt sothing was not quite right, though she couldn’t place what it was.
Perhaps because she was thrilled her daughter had recovered, Nangong Lifen discarded her doubts quickly.
