"Then I will not be able to see Sister Gu too?" Ying Yue asked. If she could not see her sister Gu, then she was ready to give up on her cultivation.
Over the next few months, Ying Yu subconsciously started to think of Gu Jin as her real sister and her attachnt to Gu Jin beca so deep that she couldn’t sleep well at night if she didn’t Gu Jin at least once a day.
Gu Jin didn’t know whether to laugh or cry but at last, she felt touched instead. This was the little sister raised by her! See! She is so filial! Not like that stinky boy, who hardly shows his face!
However...
"Yue’er I know you love a lot but...never give up on the opportunity presented to you just because of your habits."
Ying Yue pursued her lips, seeing which Gu Jin’s heart lted. Even when pouting Ying Yue, looked so cute!
"Yue’er if you miss this opportunity then, you will never be able to beco strong. If you can’t beco strong how will you be able to find your father?" Gu Jin coaxed.
’Sister Gu is right.’ Ying Yue thought and she couldn’t help but feel guilty.
What right does a nobody like her have to throw a tantrum? Why would soone even care about her anyway? It was just sister Gu.
She would guide her and try her best to gently explain to her if she(Ying Yue) threw a tantrum!
"You are right...sister Gu." Ying Yue said in a small voice.
"Then be good and promise that you will not question once I send you to the place of your seclusion."
"Promise." Ying Yue said hurriedly.
Gu Jin heaved a sigh of relief. A part of the problem was solved, now she only needs to solve the next part.
Thanks to her advancent, now she could directly communicate with Si Kai even if he was on Beast Tar Island.
She wouldn’t need to use the link between her and Si Kai to communicate.
Gu Jin wasn’t worried about anything as long as she could send Ying Yue to her destined island in space.
Thinking so, Gu Jin spent so more ti with Ying Yue and left the Long mansion.
Once in her villa, Gu Jin started to cultivate.
...
The next day when Gu Jin arrived at her school, she t Liang Bao.
Liang Bao dragged Gu Jin into one classroom and asked,
"Where is Yao’er? Why can’t I contact her?"
Gu Jin didn’t hide anything from Linag Bao and told her the truth.
Liang Bao held her forehead in disbelief.
Finally, after taking 5 minutes to calm herself, she shook Gu Jin’s arms and asked,
"Is it true? The parasite attacked our Siyao? Wait! You said that parasites may even take control over humans, right?"
Gu Jin nodded.
"God! Jin’er, if it’s true then the entire Fujio City is in danger!" Liang Bao trembled.
Gu Jin narrowed her eyes and asked,
"Who knew about Lu Siyao’s innate talent?"
"Huh?"
"Do you know all how many people know about Lu Siyao’s innate talent?" Gu Jin repeated her question.
"Many." Liang Bao said with uncertainty. "Why are you asking?"
Gu Jin narrowed her eyes and told her about her suspicion,
"I think soone is controlling those parasites."
"What? Why do you think so? Did you have so dream regarding this?" Liang Bao asked curiously.
Gu Jin shook her head,
"No. I think the parasites have talent in identifying innate talent. Yet they are precisely able to locate their target."
"What do you an Jin? Why can’t I understand you?" Liang Bao scratched her head
"I think so organizations or so individuals who know about the talents of others are the ones behind this."
"How can you be sure that the parasite doesn’t have the talent to identify innate talent?" Liang Bao asked.
Gu Jin touched her forehead.
She can’t tell Liang Bao that her innate talent is more than Lu Siyao, yet the parasite doesn’t attack her at all. And instead attacked Siyao.
It was as if Lu Siyao was on their radar!
For this reason, Gu Jin couldn’t help but praise herself.
Thank god she decided to keep a low profile when her mana awakening had taken place.
"Instinct." Gu Jin said lightly.
This ti Liang Bao didn’t doubt Gu Jin’s instinct and said,
"Then what should we do?"
Gu Jin didn’t know how to answer.
Fight? They don’t even know how to detect the parasites!
Hide? Isn’t it like waiting for death?
So what to do?
This was the first ti, since entering the magic world, Gu Jin felt a sense of helplessness wash over her.
She prided herself on being able to solve problems and protect those she cared about, but this situation was different.
The enemy was invisible, insidious, and seed to have an upper hand.
"Jin’er, we need to figure out a plan," Liang Bao said, her voice breaking through Gu Jin’s thoughts.
"We can’t just wait for them to co to us."
Gu Jin nodded slowly.
"You’re right. We need information. The more we know about these parasites and their capabilities, the better we can defend against them."
Liang Bao looked thoughtful.
"There might be so old records or books in the library. The history of magic is vast, and there could be sothing about similar threats from the past."
"Good idea," Gu Jin agreed.
"We’ll start with the library. And we need to be careful about who we trust. If soone is behind these attacks, we can’t risk tipping them off."
Liang Bao nodded in agreent.
"I’ll start gathering information discreetly. You keep an eye on things at the academy."
Gu Jin nodded.
Even though the danger was very close to them, Gu Jin wasn’t too much worried.
After she wasn’t the only one who fighting against the parasites.
There were also the special forces and so other individuals.
All she needs to do now is to do her part.
After all, she didn’t want to beco a hero who protects the world. She was happy being a villain who only cared about her family!
A month passed just like that.
The head butler stared at the sleeping figure and Long Yifan who was sitting beside the sleeping figure with a sad expression.
When Gu Jin said that Jamsine was cured completely and might wake up in a month, the head butler counted each day, in the hopes that a month would pass by hurriedly.
But as the date neared to end of the month, the head butler was slowly becoming disappointed.
What if...
What if ...jasmine doesn’t wake up?
Just the re thought was enough to make him feel sad.
Let alone Long Yifan who had so much expectation from Gu Jin.
Just then a servant ca inside the room to inform them that the food was ready.
Long Yifan finally nodded and after kissing Jasmine’s forehead, he went downstairs with the head butler.
Once Long Yifan finished his al, he didn’t leave and instead remained seated.
After a while, he asked in a low voice,
"What do you think? When will she wake up?"
The head butler knew that Long Yifan was talking about Jasmine and said with a serious expression,
"She would wake up before the month ends! I believe Little Jin...I an Miss Gu’s treatnt would work for sure!"
Long Yifan lowered his head and asked
"What if she doesn’t?"
It can’t be helped.
For the past few years, he constantly hoped that his sister would be cured.
When Gu Jin started the treatnt, Long Yifan thought that he would finally be able to see a miracle.
But with each passing day, he was wondering whether Gu Jin did it intentionally.
Did she want to give him hope and crush it at the critical mont?
Considering how she took revenge for all the grudges it was quite possible.
But...
But for so reason Long Yifan hoped that he was wrong.
He hoped that Gu Jin would slap on his face by truly making Jasmine wake up.
However...the conditions were not looking so optimistic.
Was Gu Jin truly telling the truth when she said that Jasmine would wake up in a month?
Or maybe... maybe Gu Jin was right but soone from his mansion was playing so tricks?
Waht if soone was secretly poisoning his sister?
The more Long Yifan thought so, the more convinced he was.
Just then, two maids with so injections and dicine started to climb up the stairs.
"Wait." LongYifan suddenly said and the two maids trembled. They didn’t dare to continue climbing.
"Co here." Long Yifan said.
The two maids followed Long Yifan’s instruction and walked down.
"Sir you called us?" One of the maids who looked a bit older asked.
Long Yifan lightly glanced at her and asked.
"Is this young miss’s dicine and food for today?"
The two maids nodded.
It was a common fact that everyone knew.
