"With me here, there's no need for you, you sickly snake."
I rubbed the top of Yu Rongling's head and asked Immortal Liu, "How long will the treatment take? Can I help?"
"About half a day. Since you're the Spiritual Girl, your help won't be any less effective than Yu Rongling's," Immortal Liu's eyes softened, seemingly influenced by Yu Er's rare obedience.
I had estimated Han Dai would look for me about now, but half a day should still be enough, "Let's start now, Sister Immortal Liu... I will find a way to repay you later."
"Any clean and spacious room will do." Immortal Liu followed me upstairs, "Wanwan, you saved my precious great-grandson, there's nothing I wouldn't do for you, don't feel guilty."
"Okay." I was deeply moved, and with Immortal Liu's help, I brought Chen Shufen into her room and laid her flat on the bed.
Immortal Liu has a character both upright and mischievous, but at heart, she's a compassionate and loyal person.
Just the act of saving her grandson was enough for her to walk through fire and water for me at any time.
Just then, my phone vibrated in my pocket.
I guessed it was a text message and wasn't planning to look.
But thinking of Han Dai, who was being followed by the little zombie demon, I still took it out.
Han Dai sent a text message: Save me, the zombie demon is killing me.
My heart sank; the little zombie demon had indeed made a move.
Once Hu Jiao knew Han Dai was well and back to filming in Xiangshan.
Jealousy would undoubtedly drive her to manipulate the zombie demon against Han Dai.
Everything happening at this very moment was orchestrated by me.
Yet it was too coincidental that Han Dai's issue and Chen Shufen being stricken with Forbidden Woman Witchcraft clashed together.
It was too late now to look for Yu Longting; his injuries required him to heal in seclusion.
My thoughts were in turmoil when Han Dai's call came through.
The sharp ringtone made my chest a mess, and I turned to Immortal Liu, "Sister, I... need to take a call."
"Go ahead." Immortal Liu said with a smile.
I held the phone and left the room, answering it in the hallway outside.
Before I could speak, a terrible shrieking came from the other end, "Ah—save me, Miss Wan, I don't know what happened, but the zombie demon suddenly wants to kill me."
"Don't panic, her attacking you was within my expectations; stay calm." I was unsettled myself but still asked Han Dai to remain calm.
Han Dai's emotions instantly became more hysterical, crying out, "Didn't you say she still had kindness and wouldn't kill me? Why are you now saying that you expected her to try to kill me?"
"She didn't kill you before because she couldn't bear it, but this time the person controlling her has given more cruel instructions, and she can't resist."
My anxiety tightened as I inquired, "What's your situation over there? How did the zombie demon try to kill you? Give me some more details."
"Last night, the zombie demon suddenly took a piece of wire and tried to strangle me. Luckily I wasn't dead asleep and managed to dodge in time," Han Dai's voice was trembling badly, as if she was pushed to the brink, enveloped by the shadow of death, "Please help me, she's still looking for me."
Being followed by a zombie demon, Han Dai must have been on edge these past days, unable to sleep or eat in peace.
So she was certainly unable to sleep deeply at night; any slight noise and she would wake up, which, in turn, saved her life.
"Wire..." I chewed over the word.
I remembered how Duan Hong died...
Han Dai asked in fear, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
"Han Dai, your only chance is to face a life-or-death situation. These are the circumstances you must confront to survive, you need to calm yourself down," I analyzed the real situation for Han Dai. Judging from the context of Han Dai's words, she seemed to be temporarily out of danger, "Are you hiding right now?"
