That’s why, this was segment linking after segment, everything long having been planned already?
First, let her fall into a coma, then have her husband drawn out, because under normal circumstances, only she can stop him from going. Afterwards, after he goes out, he will discover, things far weren’t that simple. Even if finding a way to cure the sleep gu, he’ll still, because of the other gu on her, be bounded by the hands and feet———-regardless whether or not her husband was certain, for matters concerning her, even if having a trace of doubt, he all won’t act rashly. And as for her, she’ll get waken up by them, and learn that only if she steps in will her husband have a chance of survival, but on the other hand, her appearing might also once again become certain people’s bargaining chip to threaten her husband. Under normal circumstances, how to choose, it simply goes without saying, but………
Those people, sure enough tightly grasped the weakness of human nature.
Just, this deadlock, sometimes indeed required external force to break. Even if an unfavorable factor, at certain times, it was still better than endlessly delaying. That’s why, how to choose, Jing Wan didn’t even need to contemplate more.
“Can I know what the other gu on me is?”
“Substitute gu, a very special kind of gu.” Fu Rong didn’t conceal, truthfully stating.
“In other words, right now, I’ve become a certain someone’s substitute, and that person most likely is the one that wangye will directly face? This kind of substitute gu, to what degree can it substitute, is it bearing the damage the other party will sustain, or dying in place of the other party?”
“Wangfei is clever, but the substitute gu still can’t reach this kind of level. If the main host sustains injuries, then the substitute will bear half the pain, lasting the same amount of time. And if the main host dies, then the substitute will weaken, the permanent kind, the life span also getting affected.”
“In that case, this substitute gu seemingly doesn’t really match its name, but for a bug to be able to reach this kind of effect, it’s also quite incredible. This kind of thing probably isn’t that easy to raise successfully, right? How many still exist?”
Fu Rong momentarily fell silent, “Gu originate from Southern Qi’s Baiyi clan. This servant’s parents are from Former Wei.”
Jing Wan finally revealed an astonished expression, picking up the tea cup and taking a sip. Afterwards, she let out a soft laugh, but there wasn’t any warmth in her eyes, “Fu Rong, say, should I say that for the sake of a single person, you all had two countries join hands and mobilized a large force, or should I be proud of having such an extraordinarily capable husband?”
“Wangye is the one that should be proud of having a wangfei like you.”
Jing Wan looked to Fu Rong. Such an obvious praise, coming from Fu Rong’s mouth, seemingly was just like saying the weather was very good. Because ordinary, that’s why it appeared sincere. Clearly devoted, yet chose to betray. Jing Wan’s eyes flickered, but, “Fu Rong, I still have doubts, hope you can give me an answers.”
“What can be said, this servant certainly will all tell wangfei.”
From Fu Rong’s words previously, one can tell, the extent of what she can say was far more than expected, but the core matter, afraid she won’t say.
“I just want to know, how did you accomplish it? Based on the manor’s security, without a bit of abilities, before even making a move, you probably would’ve already disappeared from this world, but you not only succeeded, you didn’t even get found out. In a certain sense, you even had Gong Jiu dragged down.” Speaking to here, Jing Wan paused, lowering her head, and slightly contemplated for a moment, seemingly understanding something, “En, the main point was here. You’re not afraid of poison. Is it your own abilities, or using external means?”
“Replying to wangfei, it’s an external item.”

Jing Wan nodded, “Looks like, you took not just one kind of ‘medicine’ from Gong Jiu’s place. Gong Jiu is a cautious and attentive person. How many things he’s made, he is all aware inside. Although not necessarily checking every day, but after this incident, Gong Jiu in the future will probably be even more cautious and careful. Some things, he probably won’t casually make anymore. Even if making, he will also for the most part just carry on him.” This was practically forcing out the OCD symptoms.
“Wangfei is too serious. Some things, to be able to succeed once is already extremely lucky. Not to mention, it’s absolutely impossible for there to be a second chance.” The same method won’t work the second time.
Jing Wan declined to comment, but on the inside, acknowledged Fu Rong’s words. For certain people, the same mistake, to successively make twice in a row, absolutely can’t be forgiven. If not walking into a dead end, then it was just producing some very scary things.
“Fu Rong….” Jing Wan’s following words perhaps were the true objective.
The time in which she spoke with Fu Rong was clearly far longer than the others. When Gong mama came in, that pair of eyes, looking at Fu Rong, clearly carried an unusual overtone. If originally she was all relatively tranquil, then at this time, there was also sharpness in her eyes, as if wanting to skin Fu Rong alive.
However, Fu Rong from beginning to end maintained a proper stance, deferential, quiet, and reserved.
“Wangfei, is it Fu Rong…..”
Jing Wan slightly lifted her hand, stopping Gong mama from continuing, “Don’t think too much.”
Was this something where by saying not to think too much, one will just not think too much?
Jing Wan didn’t say anything else, just casually instructing a few words before going to look for Grandmaster Liao Chen.
On the inside, Jing Wan perhaps addressed Grandmaster Liao Chen as a jack-of-all trades, but in reality, she still very much believed in his abilities. In her past life, she perhaps was an atheist, but after experiencing reincarnation, her own husband’s rebirth, and even meeting an actual ghost, those things that can’t be explained by science, she seemingly was able to accept quite well.
Probably knowing that Jing Wan will visit, Grandmaster Liao Chen’s place already had the tea prepared.
“For wangfei to be able to wake, it is very good.” Twirling the buddhist beads, Grandmaster Liao Chen smiled warmly.
Jing Wan also smiled, “This visit is also for the sake of thanking grandmaster for the help. Otherwise, afraid wangye won’t even know how to handle.”
“Wangfei is too serious. Wangye has always had his own ways in handling things. Even without White Dragon Temple, he can still handle appropriately.”
Jing Wan declined to comment. Some things, one perhaps can handle well, but with additional help, it can cause the matter to be even simpler, perhaps saving a lot of trouble. Thus, one can’t erase others’ contributions. In reality, she wasn’t able to express anything, but at least, need to have enough sincerity. However, Jing Wan felt that the best thanks towards Grandmaster Liao Chen should be her husband no longer ‘causing trouble’, and don’t randomly cause some terrifying matters.
Jing Wan picked up the tea cup, lightly taking a sip, “Coming to look for grandmaster, aside from thanking grandmaster, it’s just coming to bid grandmaster farewell. These days, we have troubled grandmaster.”
Grandmaster Liao Chen seemingly wasn’t surprised. Then again, even if unable to make out Jing Wan’s threads of fate, he can still make certain speculations from others, “Has wangfei made up one’s mind? Why not wait a little, perhaps there’s another turn of events. After all, for wangye, there’s nothing more important than wangfei’s safety.”
