Xie Churan never expected her daughter to enter Chen Nan's room, her eyes filled with panic.
"Mom, why did you lie to me?"
"Tell me, are you and Chen Nan involved?"
Xie Ling'er's eyes were filled with tears.
She wasn't an idiot.
The moment she saw her mother, she knew they had a clandestine relationship.
Seeing that the matter could no longer be hidden, Xie Churan showed no fear and said coldly, "I am a normal woman. Is there anything wrong with seeking my own happiness?"
Xie Ling'er's face was full of grievance, and she cried loudly, "But you knew I liked him! Why did you have to compete with me?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Churan became furious. "You hadn't liked him when we got together. How can that be called snatching a man from you? Doesn't everything have a first come, first served order?"
Xie Ling'er's face was filled with disbelief. She never imagined things would turn out this way.
Tears uncontrollably welled up in her eyes, and her gaze was filled with pain. "So, I became the mistress? I ruined your relationship? I'm an unnecessary person, is that right?"
Xie Churan realized her words were hurtful and quickly said, "Ling'er, things are not what you think. I've already decided to break up with Chen Nan and give you two a chance."
"Enough!" Xie Ling'er screamed. "Are you bestowing charity upon me? If I accept your generosity, don't you think it's absurd? He was your man once!"
"Are you truly willing to give your man to me?"
"Impossible. I know your personality. Even if you give Chen Nan to me, you'll still have feelings for him in your heart!"
"Then, we won't even be mother and daughter."
She became more and more indignant. "Furthermore, do you really think you got together with Chen Nan first? No, I did. I got together with him first."
"When he entered my dreams to heal me, I had already possessed him."
"I had already used him then."
"Used him, do you understand?"
Boom!
A few simple words.
Like thunder.
It made Xie Churan's scalp tingle and a chill run down her spine.
She recalled the reaction of Chen Nan's body when he entered her daughter's dreams to heal her.
She had been curious then.
She had even pressed for details about what happened in the dream.
But Chen Nan had claimed it was an evil spirit in her daughter's dream that transformed into a beauty to seduce him, which led to his reaction.
However...
She never dreamed that...
It would be her daughter seducing Chen Nan.
Nor did she expect Chen Nan to lie to her!
"Xie Churan, I hate you, I hate you!"
Xie Ling'er cried and ran out.
She was utterly disappointed and disheartened with her mother!
Only after her daughter left did Xie Churan snap back to reality. She quickly picked up her phone and dialed Chen Nan's number: "Chen Nan, Ling'er knows about us. Quickly, think of a way. I'm worried she might do something drastic!"
Chen Nan, who had just finished with something on his end, was startled and asked, "Where is she now?"
"It seems she went to the back mountain!" Xie Churan's voice trembled.
She knew her daughter's personality and couldn't handle any shock.
She might be contemplating suicide.
"I can't get back there right now. Don't worry, go to the back garden. There's a locust tree there. Yes, yes, go there, bite your finger, and drip three drops of fresh blood on the locust tree."
Chen Nan said this while getting dressed and heading downstairs. He then said to He Shanshan, who was cleaning herself in the bathroom, "Shanshan Jie, I have an urgent matter to attend to. The medical clinic opens the day after tomorrow. Could you please post a notice here for me?"
"Okay, drive safely."
Just as Chen Nan started his car, Xie Churan said anxiously on the phone, "I've already dripped three drops of blood on the locust tree as you said. What should I do next?"
Chen Nan: "Turn on the speakerphone!"
"Oh, oh, it's on!"
Chen Nan immediately recited an ancient Daoist scripture.
The moment the scripture's voice sounded, the three drops of blood on the locust tree were instantly absorbed by the tree, and a faint red light erupted.
The red light directly entered Xie Churan's forehead.
At this moment.
Xie Churan's eyes became vacant, and a strange voice emerged from her mouth: "Does Young Master Chen have any instructions for summoning me?"
Liu Caihe had possessed Xie Churan's body.
After all, it was daytime, and she dared not expose herself to the sun, or she would be harmed.
"Miss Caihe, there is a young girl on the back mountain who wants to take her own life. I need you to help me save her!" Chen Nan concisely explained his purpose for summoning Liu Caihe.
"Yes, I will go and save her now."
Xie Churan's eyes regained their clarity, but her body was covered in goosebumps.
She hadn't been completely unconscious just now.
She had merely watched herself interact with Chen Nan from the perspective of an outsider.
A ghost!
She recalled the rumors that there was a ghost in Villa 95!
At first, she didn't believe it, but she never expected it to be true.
However.
She never imagined that this vengeful spirit would obey Chen Nan's commands!
Thinking of this.
Xie Churan sighed deeply.
If he could even handle a female ghost, how could ordinary women resist his charm?
As she hung up the phone and ran towards the cliff on the back mountain, she saw Xie Ling'er, her face streaked with tears and her eyes vacant, walking towards her step by step.
There was no need to guess; her daughter must have been possessed by that female ghost.
She also breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter what.
As long as the person was safe, it was a blessing in disguise.
Afterward, Liu Caihe controlled Xie Ling'er and returned to the villa. She lay on the sofa and fell into a deep sleep.
About half an hour later.
Chen Nan arrived, dusty from his journey. Seeing that Xie Ling'er was unharmed, his worried heart finally settled.
"How did she find out about you?" Chen Nan asked Xie Churan, puzzled.
Xie Churan sighed helplessly. "This girl didn't leave after breakfast; she went to your room and then saw me!"
"My mother and I had a huge argument, and then..."
She sighed deeply at this point.
The development of events had exceeded her expectations, making it unbearable for her to handle!
"How will I face her in the future!"
Even though her daughter was saved.
She couldn't be happy.
"Young Master Chen, I can erase her previous memories," Liu Caihe's voice suddenly echoed in Chen Nan's mind.
Chen Nan's eyes lit up, and he said, "Then erase her memory of entering my room!"
"Okay!"
Liu Caihe agreed and then controlled Xie Ling'er to go to the bedroom on the third floor.
As a ghost, erasing someone's memory was not difficult.
Chen Nan looked at Xie Churan, who was full of unease, and said softly, "Let her sleep for a while, and we can wake her up later!"
Xie Churan whispered an affirmative and then looked at Chen Nan, a hint of anger in her eyes. "Chen Nan, are you hiding something from me?"
Chen Nan was bewildered. "Huh? What do you mean?"
Xie Churan glared at him through gritted teeth. "That time you went into Ling'er's dream to heal her, did she... possess you? Why didn't you tell me something like this happened?"
Seeing her anger, Chen Nan felt a bit guilty. He embraced her and said softly, "But, it's you I love."
"If I had told you about what happened in the dream, could we still be together?"
