Chapter 119: Treating the Illness

"Is what you're saying true?" Leng Xi Yue was skeptical. If this really was an illness, she might be able to cure Liu Juan.

"It's true," Liu Juan wiped her tears, "Sister, I'm not a tourist wandering around for fun, I'm a vagrant surviving on whatever food I can find, staying longer wherever there's food. When people start to disdain me, I quietly leave."

"What about your boyfriend? Doesn't he care for you?" Jin's mother was curious.

"Wu Gang? I met him while wandering. He thought I was a tourist, was attracted to my beauty, and insisted on traveling together. Within a couple of days, he was madly pursuing me, and I agreed to him for the sake of a full meal.

But Wu Gang isn't truly intending to support me; he just wants to take advantage of me. Can't you see? The reason Wu Gang suggested you provide a month's meals is that he doesn't want to spend money on me. My appetite is too big for him to afford."

"But I think he treats you quite well," Jin Yu said, "Think about it, you've only been at our house for a short time, and he's already spent forty-six thousand on you. That's no small amount of money. If he didn't like you, would he spend so much?"

"That's because he wants to take advantage of me. He hasn't succeeded yet, so of course, he's willing to spend," Liu Juan sighed deeply, "Ah, after spending so much, I won't be able to escape tonight!"

"You don't like him?" Jin Yu also started gossiping.

"It's not about liking or not liking," Liu Juan said sadly, "If he truly loved me and wanted to marry me, I would willingly be with him. But I don't want to share a bed with him before marriage. Despite my lowly status and being homeless, I have my dignity. I hope to be respected like any other woman."

But now, it seems I have no choice, just as you said, he has spent too much money on me," Liu Juan said, followed by a deep sigh.

Leng Xi Yue felt a deep sympathy for Liu Juan's plight, especially when she heard the words 'lowly status and homeless'. She then said, "Liu Juan, maybe I can cure your illness. Would you like to try?"

"Really?" Liu Juan was incredibly excited, "If you can really cure my illness, I would work like an ox or horse to repay your kindness."

"That's not necessary, it's just a small effort on my part. Come lie down on the couch, and I'll see if I can treat you," Leng Xi Yue said, leading Liu Juan into the old house's living room and asking Jin Yu and Jin's mother to take the children out to play for a while.

The children wanted to listen to their grandmother's stories, so Jin's mother and Jin Yu took the sextuplets to the hotel lobby to tell stories.

Inside the old house's living room.

Liu Juan lay down on the couch as Leng Xi Yue instructed and closed her eyes.

Leng Xi Yue placed her hands on Liu Juan's abdomen, closed her eyes, and used her will to control the energy of the spirit bead to treat Liu Juan's big appetite condition.

Liu Juan was curious about how Leng Xi Yue was treating her and peeked with half-open eyes.

She had thought Leng Xi Yue would sit cross-legged and use her palms to emit energy, just like her boss would.

Unexpectedly, Leng Xi Yue's method of treating illness was extremely simple, sitting sideways on the couch and gently stroking her stomach, appearing effortless. If such a method could cure her illness, it would mean Leng Xi Yue's "rejuvenation technique" was much more powerful than her boss's.

If that's really the case, she must be extra cautious when planning to abduct Leng Xi Yue's six children, or she might fail completely.
