"Old Chen, what do you mean?" Feng's mother instantly shifted her gaze to Uncle Chen's face.
Uncle Chen glanced awkwardly at Shi Momo, who was shedding tears, and stammered, "I admit defeat, I admit defeat, alright?" he said, looking at Mu Anxiao, "Let's go." With that, he walked away first.
Mu Anxiao followed Uncle Chen without even looking at Feng Qishi and the others.
Feng's mother looked at the retreating figures of Mu Anxiao and the others and said, "Feng Qishi, you'd better show Momo respect, otherwise I'll deal with you."
"Auntie, can you be gentler with Qishi? Otherwise," Shi Momo pretended to glance at Feng Qishi cautiously and said, "Qishi will be jealous of me."
"He wouldn't dare," Feng's mother said, taking Shi Momo's hand. "Kid, let's go back."
"Yes." Feng Qishi did not dare to disobey his mother's wishes and followed them back.
Not long after, a taxi stopped at the park entrance. Uncle Chen paid half the fare and got out with Mu Anxiao.
Mu Anxiao looked around and said, "Don't go yet. I'll take you to see someone."
Uncle Chen was taken aback. He looked at the taxi parked behind him and said, "No, it's too embarrassing to make them wait here."
Mu Anxiao glanced at the taxi, stepped forward, and leaned through the car window, saying, "You can go now."
"Okay." The taxi driver nodded and drove away.
Uncle Chen was surprised and said, "Little girl, what are you doing?"
"I was going to take you to see someone, but I was delayed by the matter with Feng Qishi," Mu Anxiao said frankly, pointing to the park gate. "Please, come with me."
"Are you going to treat me?" Uncle Chen guessed.
"Yes."
"Shouldn't we go to the hospital?" Uncle Chen asked.
"It's different," Mu Anxiao said, spreading her hands. "Please."
Uncle Chen looked at Mu Anxiao's hand with trepidation in his heart. He thought about the way Mu Anxiao had examined him today and the talk of monsters. He dared not disobey.
"Alright," he nodded.
Mu Anxiao led Uncle Chen into the courtyard and to the door of Zhang Yan's room. She then glanced at Uncle Chen and raised her hand to knock gently on the door. "Are you in?"
Zhang Yan, sitting on the sofa and cracking melon seeds, said, "I'm back. Come in."
"Okay," Mu Anxiao replied. She gripped the doorknob, pressed it gently, and opened the door. "I've brought someone. I hope you can take a look." As she spoke, she stepped aside.
Uncle Chen cautiously stepped into Zhang Yan's room and smiled. "Hello."
Zhang Yan looked at Uncle Chen with surprise, put down the melon seeds he was holding on the table, and stood up. "It's you."
"You know me?" Uncle Chen was surprised.
"No, I just saw you once when you were a child," Zhang Yan said, looking at Mu Anxiao and frowning. He asked mentally: What are you doing?
You bribed the soul spirit, didn't you?
You know?
Yes, I can feel it. The demon core in his body is almost gone. As long as you cast a spell to force out the remaining demon core in his body, he won't be able to see monsters anymore, Mu Anxiao said mentally, glancing at the awkwardly bowing Uncle Chen.
You're really good at finding trouble for me.
I feel like the wolf demon targeted him because of the demon core in his body. To prevent the wolf demon from taking advantage, this matter must be resolved so I can be at ease.
So, if he's cured, you won't have to go to school anymore, is that it?
