Chapter 188 The Soul Departure Syndrome

Norwegian Svflan Castle.

The doctor said that Jiang Mian should have a good sleep, so Ji Zhi Xiu really didn't disturb her.

He cleaned her body and changed her clothes every day, applied fragrant lotion to her, and slept with Jiang Mian.

Until Fan Cheng couldn't stand it anymore, he reminded, "Mr. President, don't you think the young madam's condition is a bit unusual?"

Even if she needed rest due to overwork, she shouldn't sleep for so long without any reaction.

Except for her breathing, she was like a sleeping beauty, completely unaware of the outside world.

It had been two days.

Ji Zhi Xiu paused, "What do you mean?"

Fan Cheng knew that after finding the young madam, the president's spirit had relaxed by half.

It was as if he had been too tense for too long and suddenly relaxed, spending all his time with the young madam and neglecting the company. He understood all of this.

But this condition was not right!

Both the president and the young madam, these two people, were in a very abnormal state!

Fan Cheng gritted his teeth and said, "Has the young madam been sleeping for too long?"

His words seemed to break the beautiful dream Ji Zhi Xiu had been immersed in, forcing him to accept the reality.

Silence fell in the room for a while. Ji Zhi Xiu looked at Jiang Mian's face and said gently, "Let the doctor take a look."

The doctor was called again and performed another full body examination on Jiang Mian. Then, he was somewhat ashamed, "Mr. Ji... Madam's physical functions are all normal."

"Then why hasn't she woken up yet?" Ji Zhi Xiu said coldly, sitting by the bed.

The doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead. "This... I don't know why, Mr. Ji! It's my incompetence!"

"Get out!" Ji Zhi Xiu was furious.

The doctor quickly scrambled out of the room.

Fan Cheng looked worried, "Mr. President, if this doesn't work, we'll find someone else. Don't worry."

"Let all the doctors come. Whoever can wake up Madam will have their conditions met," Ji Zhi Xiu said lightly.

"Okay, I'll give the order right away."

For two consecutive days, the room was crowded with doctors, but not one of them could wake Jiang Mian.

Ji Zhi Xiu's face grew colder.

Until Lu Cong couldn't help but call him, "Brother Xiu, how are things on your end? When are you coming back?"

The weather was good today, and the sunshine poured in through the window.

It fell on Jiang Mian's eyelashes, making her features even more beautiful.

Ji Zhi Xiu used a towel to wipe her fingers one by one and then said, "I found her, but I'm not sure when I'll go back. Lu Cong, she's been sleeping all the time. Is she blaming me, that's why she refuses to wake up?"

Lu Cong was a little confused, "What do you mean? What happened to Sister-in-law?"

Fan Cheng couldn't help but interject and explained the situation in a few words.

On the other end of the phone, everyone fell silent.

After a long while, Ye Yi said, "Could it be that woman Shen Tingyu did something else to Jiang Mian, causing her to be like this?"

Chang Qin thought for a moment and said, "Sister-in-law's symptoms are like soul separation syndrome. Since doctors are useless, maybe we can try a different approach?"

Ji Zhi Xiu's eyes moved, "What do you mean?"

Chang Qin said seriously, "Have you heard of witchcraft? Or curses? In short, it's using some things to make a person seem like a living dead. I think Sister-in-law's current condition is very similar."

Ye Yi frowned, "Indeed, it's like something that madwoman would do."

Ji Zhi Xiu's voice was hoarse, "Do you have any solutions?"

Chang Qin: "I don't have any solutions, but I can recommend someone. Her name is Qin Xiao Yan, the daughter-in-law of the Lu family in Hong Kong. I heard that she learned fortune-telling from her master in the mountains since she was young, and after coming down the mountain, she married the eldest son of the Lu family. I heard Qing Qing mention it once before. A doctor in their hospital always claimed to see ghosts. At first, everyone thought he was hallucinating due to overwork and didn't pay attention. Until one time, this doctor made a simple mistake that should not have been made during work. Later, they contacted Qin Xiao Yan, and the matter was resolved."

Chang Qin spoke for such a long time that his throat felt a bit dry.

He reached for the Mojito on the table and took a sip to moisten his throat, finally adding, "If you need it, I can give you her number."

Ji Zhi Xiu lowered his eyes and looked at the sleeping Jiang Mian, "Send it to me."

After hanging up the phone, Chang Qin quickly sent the number.

Ji Zhi Xiu dialed the number and stood up, by the window.

The call was quickly answered, and a sweet and childlike female voice came from the other end, sounding young, "Hello, I am Qin Xiao Yan."

Ji Zhi Xiu moved his thin lips, only to find that the words he wanted to say were a bit difficult.

Before he could speak, Qin Xiao Yan, still thinking, then realized, "Are you Mr. Ji Zhi Xiu? Someone has already informed me that you will contact me."

"It's me."

"Then let's get straight to the point. What happened to your wife?"

To be honest, based on her tone and voice alone, Ji Zhi Xiu found it hard to trust her.

But when he turned his head and saw Jiang Mian sleeping peacefully on the bed, Ji Zhi Xiu still said, "She's in a deep sleep, and the doctors say there's nothing wrong with her."

Qin Xiao Yan thought for a moment, "Then what happened to her before? Please don't mind me asking so many questions. These are very necessary for me to understand her."

Ji Zhi Xiu recounted the whole story from beginning to end.

Qin Xiao Yan mused, "So, she doesn't react at all when you talk to her? This does sound like soul separation syndrome. However, I need to see her in person to confirm. I'm in Hong Kong now. When can Mr. Ji come over?"

"I can arrange for a flight to go there now," the man said lightly.

Qin Xiao Yan nodded seriously, "Okay, I'll wait for you in Hong Kong. But..."

She paused, smiling a little awkwardly, "Can you tell me your address when you arrive? I'll come to you."

Qin Xiao Yan was a little troubled, but she had no choice. Her husband always strongly opposed her doing these superstitious things.

Ji Zhi Xiu didn't have time to inquire why she said that. He nodded slightly in agreement, "Okay, I'll contact you when I arrive."

"Mmm hmm!" Qin Xiao Yan said cheerfully, "By the way, send me her birth date and time. I need to cast a divination for her."

"Okay."

Thousands of miles away in Hong Kong.

Qin Xiao Yan took out the ancestral copper coins and tossed them three times against Jiang Mian's birth date and time. A trace of confusion appeared on her beautiful face as she looked at the hexagram, "A destined tribulation? But isn't it a little early?"

As she was thinking, she heard footsteps outside the door.

Qin Xiao Yan quickly leaned over and tidied up her things, hiding them under the quilt.

Lu Yi Ze pushed open the door and saw her awkward yet polite smile. A hint of disgust flashed in his eyes, "What bad thing are you doing again?"

Qin Xiao Yan smiled sweetly, "I'm not, husband~"

"Stop it, don't call me that! I'm here to tell you that I won't be sleeping with you tonight. I'll be in the study. You know what to say to Grandma, right?" Lu Yi Ze said with disgust.

Qin Xiao Yan nodded, "I know. As long as Grandma doesn't ask me, I won't say anything."

"Good that you're sensible!" Lu Yi Ze snorted and left the room.

After he left, Qin Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

She found her good partner from under the quilt, held it in her hands, and her small mouth pouted, "I'm sorry, old friends, for making you suffer with me."

She shook her head. If her master hadn't said that her destined person was Lu Yi Ze, she wouldn't have stayed in the Lu family.

Alas, Qin Xiao Yan couldn't understand why her destined person was such a rude and arrogant young master like Lu Yi Ze!

Forget it, it's all fate.

It's good that he doesn't sleep with her. She can have the whole bed to herself, which sounds quite liberating!

......

By the time Ji Zhi Xiu arrived in Hong Kong, it was already a day later.

He had a small villa in Hong Kong. After getting off the plane, Ji Zhi Xiu sent the address.

Qin Xiao Yan arrived soon after.

This was the first time Ji Zhi Xiu saw Qin Xiao Yan.

She looked about as he had imagined, with a very childish appearance.

A melon-seed face, a pointed chin, short hair that reached her ears, red lips and white teeth, and a pair of bright almond-shaped eyes. She had an indescribable aura of spiritual energy about her.

She was wearing a gray tracksuit, which didn't look like that of a wealthy young madam at all.

Instead, she looked like a college student.

Qin Xiao Yan was led into the room by Fan Cheng. Her eyes fell on the bed, and she couldn't help but exclaim, "She's really beautiful!"

Jiang Mian, sleeping on the luxurious large bed, had a peaceful expression, with a faint smile on her lips.

Wearing a pale yellow puff-sleeve dress, the sweet doll collar made her look like a sleeping princess.

Ji Zhi Xiu glanced at her lightly, "Can we start looking now?"

Qin Xiao Yan withdrew her gaze, "Yes, but you need to go out for a while. I... cannot be seen when I'm treating."

Under his intense gaze, Qin Xiao Yan explained softly.

Ji Zhi Xiu looked at her clear eyes and sincere tone, pinched his brow, and walked out, "Don't take too long."

A soft murmur came from behind her, "I'll try my best. I don't know if her case is complicated..."

The room fell silent.

Qin Xiao Yan lifted the quilt, then unbuttoned Jiang Mian's dress, muttering softly, "Sister Jiang, you're a girl, and I'm a girl too, so it's okay..."

Half an hour later, Qin Xiao Yan opened the door and leaned against the doorframe.

There were some beads of sweat on her forehead, and her face was pale, "Alright, you can come in now..."

Ji Zhi Xiu had been waiting at the door. Hearing this, he didn't even look at her before rushing to the bedside.

Qin Xiao Yan's eyes showed a hint of envy, "It's so good..."

She could tell that Mr. Ji loved his wife very much.

Fan Cheng brought a glass of water and handed it to her, asking with concern, "Are you alright, Miss Qin?"

Qin Xiao Yan raised her face, her small face bright, and took the glass with both hands, "Thank you, Assistant Fan! I'm fine!"

She had just consumed too much energy and was a little slow to recover.

After drinking the water in one gulp, Qin Xiao Yan handed the cup back to him.

Fan Cheng: "Would you like another glass?"

Ji Zhi Xiu: "Why hasn't she woken up yet?"

Two voices spoke at the same time.

Qin Xiao Yan stuck out her tongue, "Thank you, I won't drink anymore."

She turned and walked into the room, "Don't worry, I haven't told you yet. Sister Jiang does have soul separation syndrome, which is a common form of witchcraft. It's likely that the other party took something she usually uses and knew her birth date and time, then specifically found a malevolent master to perform the ritual. A person has three souls and seven spirits. She currently has only one soul and two spirits, and the rest have been attracted away, causing her to be unable to wake up."

Qin Xiao Yan paused and continued, "We can put aside who harmed Sister Jiang for now. The top priority is to find Sister Jiang's three souls and seven spirits. Otherwise, if it takes too long, even if she wakes up, she won't be normal!"

Ji Zhi Xiu frowned slightly at what he heard. All of this was beyond his knowledge.

But the scene before him forced him to believe.

Looking at Jiang Mian, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, Ji Zhi Xiu's expression was calm, "How do we find the remaining souls?"
