At this critical moment, Ye Huohuo bit her tongue, chanted a spell in her heart, and sprayed a mist of blood from her mouth into the car.
Something in the air seemed to dissipate, and her body finally regained some strength.
She painstakingly drew out her right hand, sketching half a Qingxin Talisman in the air, and then pressed the phantom image of the half-talisman into the back of Li Mohan's heart.
Li Mohan felt his body plunge into ice water, a chill seeping from the bottom of his heart, and the unbearable heat throughout his body lessened by half.
His mind cleared, and he realized he was pressed down on the girl named Ye Huohuo, his hand reaching inside her clothes.
His body stiffened, and he quickly withdrew his hand, returning to his seat. His expression was a little unnatural, "I'm sorry, I..."
Ye Huohuo tried to remain calm, waved her hand, and pulled her clothes straight, "It's not your fault, you've been hit by the Peach Blossom Sha. It's already difficult enough to hold on until now.
But you've also felt it, I can help you with your condition. What I just injected into your body is half a Qingxin Talisman. As long as I complete the talisman for you, your Peach Blossom Sha will be completely resolved.
And I have only one request, you be my nominal wife for a year."
As Ye Huohuo spoke, she took out a yellow paper talisman and held it between two fingers, "Actually, another benefit of marrying me is that I can help you ward off all those lingering flirtatious women around you..."
She gestured towards the woman lying on the ground outside, "Like her. There must be many around you, right? Doesn't it bother you? I can help you deal with them all!"
Li Mohan glanced at the woman on the ground outside, then at Ye Huohuo. The latter condition seemed to sway him.
He only wanted to marry one person. If it wasn't her, who he married didn't matter.
Compared to those women who were desperately trying to marry him, marrying this disheveled-looking woman would at least bring him peace.
Moreover, his grandfather had been urging him to get married lately, constantly saying that as the eldest brother, his unmarried status was directly affecting the marriages of his three younger brothers.
Since that was the case, he might as well agree to her. He figured this little minnow wouldn't be able to cause any significant trouble.
"Okay, I agree, but you must keep your word. We won't interfere with each other, otherwise..."
"Rest assured, everything can be written into a contract. Besides, our profession values integrity. If I go back on my word, and you don't punish me, heaven will punish me!"
As if to witness her words, as soon as Ye Huohuo finished speaking, thunder rumbled in the clear sky.
Ye Huohuo looked up at the sky and sighed. When would her Heavenly Fish Guarding Formation be broken? There was still a year left. If she couldn't break this formation while staying with Li Mohan for this year, she would truly lose her life.
Thinking of this, she grabbed Li Mohan's finger and bit down on the tip of his middle finger, drawing blood.
"You..." Li Mohan hadn't expected this crazy woman to bite him without a word.
He watched her smear the blood from her middle finger onto the paper talisman, then bite her own middle finger to add a drop of blood.
Then she muttered something inaudible, and the talisman spontaneously ignited at her fingertips, burning to ashes. He even saw the flame transform into a faint light that rose into the sky through the open car window.
Before this, Li Mohan had never believed in such supernatural things, but today's experience forced him to.
He had always been cautious. Tonight, he hadn't drunk a single drop of water or eaten a single bite of food, yet he had still been affected and almost taken advantage of.
This woman in front of him seemed crazy, but she actually had some skills. At least when she finished drawing the remaining half of the talisman and pressed it to his chest, the uncontrollable lust within him completely vanished.
At the same time, the stalled car could be driven again, and his phone, which had no signal, started ringing.
Li Mohan picked up his phone and saw dozens of missed calls. The phone numbers of his three younger brothers appeared one after another in the missed calls.
Had something happened at home?
He quickly answered the phone.
"Big brother, where have you been? We couldn't get through to you no matter what! We're dying of worry!"
Before he could speak, his fourth brother, Li Mochen, spoke from the other end of the line.
"Get to the point!" Li Mohan frowned, his voice chillingly cold.
"Hurry to second brother's hospital. Grandpa is in trouble!" This time, Li Mochen was unusually direct.
"What happened to Grandpa?" Li Mohan's brow furrowed even tighter.
"We don't know. He was fine earlier, but an hour ago he suddenly fainted. Uncle Zhao rushed Grandpa to second brother's hospital. They couldn't find anything wrong, but he just wouldn't wake up!"
"I understand, I'm on my way!" Li Mohan's fingers gripping the steering wheel turned white at the knuckles. His gaze fell on the woman on the ground outside the car, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes.
He tapped a number on his fingertip.
"Boss!"
"Completely blacklist the Chen family. Spread the word, anyone who helps them will be blacklisted as well! Within a week, make them leave Haicheng!"
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line, but then a quick reply came, "Yes!"
Ye Huohuo noticed the murderous aura emanating from Li Mohan and became alert. She thought, this person must not be offended, he kills with a soft knife, piercing the heart!
"He brought it upon himself, and anyone who uses such a vicious Peach Blossom Sha is not a good person. You're doing the right thing!" she quickly declared her stance, lest she be silenced later.
Li Mohan glanced at her, said nothing, got out of the car, and threw the woman on the ground into the back seat. After all, it was a life, and at this late hour, he couldn't leave her in the wilderness.
He looked up and saw a colorful bicycle parked not far away.
"You rode this here?"
A rare hint of surprise appeared in his eyes. This was more than ten kilometers from the city, and this girl had ridden a bicycle here, which was incredible.
Ye Huohuo poked her head out of the car, "Don't be touched, just treat me better from now on!"
"I'm going to the hospital. I'll take you into the city, and you can go home yourself!" Li Mohan glanced at her, saying ungentlemanly.
Ye Huohuo pretended not to notice his dislike for her and said with a sincere expression, "I'll go to the hospital with you."
"I won't go back on my promise of marriage! You don't need to follow me to the hospital to meet my family!" Li Mohan's eyes showed displeasure.
Ye Huohuo, having honed her skills for many years, possessed sharp eyes that could detect even the slightest expression. Whether she could save her life in the future depended on this young master, so she had to serve him well.
"Don't misunderstand, I'm going to the hospital to save your grandfather! I have no other intentions!"
Li Mohan raised an eyebrow at her, "You? No need, Mohen is a doctor, he can handle it."
Ye Huohuo shook her head, stroking her chin with a profound air, "I heard your call just now. You've had a full check-up with no problems, but the person still won't wake up. This is beyond the scope of medicine!"
"You... can cure it?" If it were before, Li Mohan would never have believed it, but now...
"As long as it's something related to metaphysics, I can solve it!" Ye Huohuo's small face was full of arrogance, although the makeup on her face truly ruined her image.
"Good, I hope you don't disappoint me!"
On the way back to the city, the trunk of a black Mercedes was half-open, with a colorful bicycle stuck inside.
It was quite like the two people in the car.
"The bump on your head?..." Li Mohan glanced at Ye Huohuo in the passenger seat from the rearview mirror.
Ye Huohuo had now removed the terrifying makeup from her face and taken off the pink wig on her head, revealing her naturally pretty and charming face, as well as her thick, shoulder-length black hair.
There was also a pigeon-egg sized bump on her forehead.
Li Mohan found Ye Huohuo's current appearance much more pleasing to the eye, but she looked too young, like a student.
"How old are you? You're not underage, are you!"
"How is that possible? After tonight, I'll be twenty years old. We can get our marriage certificate tomorrow." Ye Huohuo's cat-like eyes curved, "If you don't believe me, I can show you my ID? Don't worry, I never do anything illegal!"
"No need!" Li Mohan felt awkward with her, as if he were taking care of a child.
"How did you get the bump on your head?" His gaze fell on the bump on her head, which looked quite serious, "Let's get it checked at the hospital later!"
"I fell off my bicycle and landed on a rock. It's nothing, just a bump. No need to check. If I had to go to the hospital for something like this, I'd be going five times a day." Ye Huohuo was nonchalant.
Injuries? She was used to it. She brushed shoulders with death every day, but she never thought of dying. She wanted to live well and find the person who caused her family's ruin! Make them wish they were dead!
Before the car even reached the hospital, Ye Huohuo saw a mass of black energy shrouding the sky above the hospital from afar. Her eyelids twitched. Could it be that she had encountered a formidable foe?
