"What kind of medicine did you give me?" Song Zhenbao, unable to move and with red eyes, shouted towards Song Pearl behind her.
Hearing her question, Song Pearl suddenly turned around and saw Ani standing behind her, though she didn't know when she had arrived.
"What? You gave her something?" she asked, surprisingly not shocked.
"Yes, it was me who gave it to her. It wasn't medicine, just a piece of candy," Ani said as she closed the door to the hospital room, smiling while standing there, her eyes flashing with a hint of seductive laziness, much like a comfortable cat.
In the next moment, her smile vanished, and her face took on a somewhat ferocious expression.
"You, Fish Spirit, I will make you harm the person in this world who cares about you the most, making you regret it for a lifetime."
The room fell silent, Ani's words carrying a chilling aura.
"Fish Spirit!"
"Fish Spirit?"
Hong Xinran and Song Zhenbao both looked at Song Pearl in unison. What does "Fish Spirit" mean?
"She is not human; she is a Fish Spirit. The person on the bed is in this state because she married her and had their yang energy absorbed. Haven't you heard of such a thing?"
Song Pearl was causing chaos with her madness! Hong Xinran wouldn't believe such things. Gripping her phone tightly, she quickly pressed several keys; before she could dial, the phone slipped from her hand and crashed to the ground.
"Are you tired of living?" Ani narrowed her eyes slightly. "You are also one of those who care about Song Pearl. If you die, Song Pearl will feel guilty for a lifetime," she chuckled. "Unfortunately, my energy is only enough to deal with one person..."
Song Pearl lowered her gaze and glanced at the two beside her; Hong Xinran and Song Zhenbao immediately lost consciousness and stood dazed nearby. She stood face to face with Ani and asked, "The medicine was given by you; what kind of medicine did you give Qing Wenyu?"
"Medicine?" Ani laughed. "That's not medicine, that's me. This person has too much malice, and I have no way to take advantage of it, so I can only pretend to be this foolish woman." Ani looked at Song Zhenbao. "It's actually a relief that she came to find me."
"There's a reason for everything; you've been haunting me endlessly. You only bully these ordinary people!"
"Yes! I take pleasure in bullying ordinary people! You'll never know what that feeling of joy is like." Ani's face showed a bright delight.
"Did you give this bait to Song Zhenbao?" Song Pearl asked.
"Yes," Ani nodded. "Now that you know, it doesn't matter; I'm not afraid of you knowing. Haven't you always focused on White Cat? Your demon has done a great job covering for me, allowing me to stay by your side for so long!..."
"Demon?" Song Pearl frowned, staring at Ani. "You know about demons?"
"Of course, I not only know but have also become a few demons myself. I left quickly because I was afraid of revealing my true self." Ani smiled.
"So, the demon never returned!" Song Pearl lowered her gaze. "That snake transformation was controlled by you?"
"Of course! Thanks to that self-righteous Zhang Yunye sealing your Demon Soul halfway, otherwise, I really wouldn't have been able to do anything!"
Song Pearl fell silent, listening to her continue.
"And it's also because you trust others too easily; you just felt sympathy for Ani when you heard she had mental issues. You let your guard down and easily believed that Ani would recover because of the demon! Knowing that your Demon Soul was sealed is unfortunate for you. I took my revenge, but you didn't even know; what's the point of that? Fortunately, you managed to recover."
Ani circled around Song Pearl, laughing heartily. "That's great! You don't need to thank me; just wait and see your lover get devoured!"
With her laughter, she suddenly collapsed onto the ground and fainted.
The lights in the room flickered, and the two people, Song Zhenbao and Hong Xinran, standing still suddenly came to their senses.
"My phone, that crazy girl, it's her medicine, what kind of medicine is it?" Hong Xinran picked up her phone and immediately asked.
"She's out of her mind, she's talking nonsense again," Song Pearl said as she helped the dazed Ani onto a nearby bed.
"No, she's not crazy! She gave me medicine; how could she be crazy!" Song Zhenbao exclaimed, wide-eyed as she rushed over to shake Ani. Ani woke up, looking somewhat dazed as she said, "Sister, hello."
"What sister!" Song Zhenbao slapped her across the face. "You gave me a pill; don't you remember?"
Ani smiled.
Hong Xinran pushed Song Zhenbao away. "Pearl, this child is not mentally stable, and you're hitting her? I can see it now; it's actually you who's not stable!"
"How is she not stable? She..." Song Zhenbao wanted to say something but couldn't find the words. "Let me ask her!"
While they were arguing, Song Pearl had already sat down in front of the bed. She knew that the hospital couldn't solve Qing Wenyu's condition, and there was nothing she could do. This cat spirit had already merged with Qing Wenyu's body, spreading like bacteria.
Outside the ward, there were hurried footsteps. The doctor that Hong Xinran had contacted earlier rushed in in a panic.
Seeing Qing Wenyu's condition shocked them just as much as it had shocked Hong Xinran and Song Zhenbao. They quickly moved Qing Wenyu to the intensive care unit.
Ani stood quietly beside them with a silly expression, but if she didn't speak, no one would know she was foolish.
"It can't be!" Song Zhenbao's mental state was on the verge of collapse. "You don't understand; she's a witch from the Land Temple. After I returned, I've encountered her many times and seen her abilities! She's not a fool!"
Hong Xinran and Song Pearl looked at her with pity.
“She might have gone crazy!” Hong Xinran said.
“She has a strong mental fortitude; she won't go crazy.”
Earlier, at the Land Temple, that Cat Demon trying to use her was not a difficult task. Song Zhenbao had always been bold; this kind of thing wouldn't scare her.
Qing Wenyu had gone through another round of examinations, but there were no results, and the cause of the illness remained unclear.
“To prevent his body from continuing to be consumed and deteriorating, the best method is to freeze him first,” a doctor suggested as he took off his mask. “Once medical advancements reach a certain level, we can proceed with treatment.”
“That's the only option we have!” Several other experts nodded in agreement.
“What does freezing mean?” When this news came out, Tian Yue shouted frantically. “What difference is there between my son being frozen and being dead! What on earth is going on, you Quack Doctors! Hurry! Quickly contact another hospital. Get the best doctors!”
She grabbed Qing Yuansheng's arm, crying and shouting.
When she came with Qing Yuansheng, Qing Wenyu had already been moved to another ward, and they hadn't been able to see his condition.
“Why did it change overnight?” Qing Yuansheng asked the two men beside him. He was worried about Song Zhenbao and had arranged for two staff members to take care of Qing Wenyu, but now those two were standing aside with blank expressions.
“He was fine all along; we just stepped out to use the restroom. When we returned, they were all in the room…” The two men looked at Hong Xinran and Song Pearl.
“Uncle Qing,” Hong Xinran said calmly, “I’ll take you to see Qing Wenyu…”
"I want to go too!" Tian Yue shouted as she stood up.
"I'm afraid you won't be able to handle seeing him like this," Hong Xinran said, biting her lip. A hint of sadness flashed in her eyes; although she didn't like it, she still regarded Qing Wenyu as a brother. His current condition was basically hopeless. Unless a drug that could quickly suppress that virus was developed.
"I'm his mother! What is there to not handle?" Tian Yue glared at Hong Xinran, her eyes filled with hostility.
Song Pearl watched them walk away without following. Ani continued to grip her arm. There was still an ethereal quality in her eyes, but upon closer inspection, they seemed somewhat hollow.
Even though her heart was in turmoil, Song Pearl noticed the look in Ani's eyes.
It was all due to her past carelessness; her soul could attach itself to Song Pearl, but she had never considered that the soul attached to the cat could also transfer elsewhere.
Now, she couldn't just stand by and watch Qing Wenyu being frozen in the cold storage waiting for medical advancements.
That cat would cause harm to those who cared for her in this world, making her live a life of regret. She still hadn't figured out if Qing Wenyu was the person she should care about the most, yet it had already taken action.
The sound of footsteps approached again as Qing Yuansheng half-carried the almost limp Tian Yue over.
"What are we going to do? How could this happen?" Tian Yue mumbled. When she saw Song Pearl, her anger flared up again. "It's all because of her; she's the one who caused my son to end up like this!"
Suddenly, she broke free from Qing Yuansheng and lunged at Song Pearl, starting to hit her. Song Pearl stood still, allowing Tian Yue's hands to strike her, her nails breaking the skin.
"Stop it!" Hong Xinran rushed over a moment too late and hurriedly pulled Tian Yue away. "Why are you taking your anger out on Pearl? It was Song Zhenbao and Wen Yu who ended up together; if you want to blame someone, blame Song Zhenbao!" she shouted, regardless of the curious glances from passersby.
"Where is Song Zhenbao?" Qing Yuansheng finally noticed that Song Zhenbao was nowhere to be found. "Wasn't she supposed to be here taking care of Wen Yu?"
"She just left with something." The two caretakers arranged by Qing Yuansheng stood nearby and asked upon hearing this.
Qing Yuansheng's expression was heavy. "Let her leave; I don't expect an outsider to take care of Wen Yu. They are here for a meeting at the Branch Office and have some follow-up work to attend to." He turned to Hong Xinran. "Wen Yu will be transferred to your hospital! I believe you will do your best to treat him."
Hong Xinran smiled helplessly and nodded in agreement. She would do her best, but... this condition couldn't be cured just by effort.
"There are still too many things at the company, and your mother-in-law is emotionally unstable. We should head back now. I'll leave this to you," Qing Yuansheng said to Song Pearl.
"Yes, I will stay with Wen Yu until he recovers and can go home," Song Pearl replied, biting her lip, her eyes slightly moist.
"They will stay behind to help you," Qing Yuansheng said, pointing to the two men with a sigh as he heavily supported Tian Yue and left.
"Pearl, let that girl go back with you! You can't possibly take care of her right now," Hong Xinran said, pulling Ani, who was hiding nearby, toward Song Pearl.
"I brought her out; she was fine when we came. If she isn't normal when we go back, I won't be able to explain it to her family. Xinran, please help me!" Song Pearl pleaded as she handed Ani over to her. "I intended to have her checked properly; I'm counting on you."
"That's not a mental hospital!" Hong Xinran glared at her.
"But you are a great doctor," Song Pearl said with a faint smile. "You might be able to cure her condition." (To be continued...)
