Xie Xiaoqing is a female internet celebrity that Wang Xingyu is extremely infatuated with. In order to save her younger brother who has fallen into a casino, Wang Xingyu made a high-stakes gamble with Lu Hu, and the result was predictable.

The Taoist priest Qingye has cultivated Taoism for 213 years, and the experiences he has had are beyond the imagination of an ordinary person.

Having acquired all of Qingye Daoist's memories, Wang Xingyu recalled the mess he made three days ago when he unwittingly ended up at the gambling table and immediately realized the problem. That's when he asked Lu Hu about it.

Lu Hu replied without hesitation, "No."

Wang Xingyu said, "If you don't tell the truth, I'll call the police and say that you've set up an illegal casino and cheated me out of 8.6 million yuan."

Lu Hu snapped, "Am I being too lenient with you?"

Wang Xingyu remained calm and said, "You have an IOU, so I can't deny it. Now I just want an answer. Is that so difficult?"

Lu Hu pondered for a moment and said, "Alright, I can tell you. You guessed right. Xie Xiaoqing's younger brother, Xie Long, owes me four million in gambling debts. The two siblings don't want to pay it back, so they set a trap for you, and you stupidly walked right into it. Heh, what's that saying again? A simp, a simp, in the end, he gets nothing."

Wang Xingyu ignored his sarcasm and said, "I understand. Second question, do you ever feel unbearable pain at night?"

"Excruciating pain?"

Lu Hu chuckled and said, "I'm perfectly healthy."

Wang Xingyu shook his head and said, "That's not right. I know some esoteric arts. The Yin energy in your body is extremely heavy, you are a typical evil ghost, no, to be precise, you are possessed by water ghosts, and two female water ghosts at that."

Lu Hu laughed heartily and said, "You're getting more and more outlandish, kid. Two female water ghosts, I'm impressed..."

Before he could finish speaking, he seemed to remember something, his voice abruptly stopped, and his face instantly turned pale.

Wang Xingyu guessed that this guy was definitely thinking about those two female college students, so he continued, "Logically speaking, you shouldn't be alive today. Perhaps your yang energy was too strong, preventing them from succeeding. However, your yang energy is clearly insufficient now, and you should feel it within three days at most."

Lu Hu cursed, "Bullshit! What era are we living in? Nobody will believe your nonsense."

Wang Xingyu shrugged and said, "Don't believe me if you don't want to. Mr. Lu, if there really is a ghost, you can come to me. Maybe I can help."

"Keep making things up, keep making things up."

Lu Hu stared intently into his eyes and said, "I think you're just trying to avoid paying me back that 8.6 million."

Wang Xingyu revealed a mysterious smile: "A mere eight million six hundred thousand is nothing to me."

"How arrogant!"

Lu Hu sneered and left with his henchmen.

A hint of disdain appeared on Wang Xingyu's lips.

Now that he has obtained the primordial spirit of the Green Leaf Taoist and has the cultivation level of the Out-of-Body stage, he can absolutely roam freely in this world where spiritual energy is scarce.

However, Wang Xingyu knew very well that the weapons of the modern world were too powerful.

Let alone those at the Nascent Soul stage, even a Yang God master would probably not be able to withstand the baptism of the missiles.

Ten minutes later, the door was pushed open again.

"Dad, you're finally awake."

A childish voice rang out.

Wang Xingyu turned his head and saw a beautiful little girl rush to the bedside, her big, dark eyes full of surprise.

The little girl had two pigtails and looked very cute.

"Xiao Xin'er".

Wang Xingyu called out, his voice incredibly hoarse.

The little girl in front of him was his daughter, Wang Xinyu, whose nickname was Xiao Xin'er.

"Daddy, does it still hurt? Do you want me to blow on it for you?"

Xiao Xin'er asked innocently.

Wang Xingyu's heart melted at the sight of the little one's adorable face. He gently stroked her hair and said softly, "Daddy's all better now, it doesn't hurt anymore. Baby, did your mommy bring me to the hospital?"

"Besides me, who else do you think it could be?"

A cold voice came from behind.

A tall, slender, and beautiful woman walked in through the door.

She wore a well-fitting suit, revealing her fair neck. Her features were delicate and refined, and her beautiful eyes were like two clear springs.

Despite not wearing makeup, she possesses a cool and aloof beauty.

However, his gaze toward Wang Xingyu was tinged with coldness and hatred.

This stunningly beautiful woman is Wang Xingyu's wife, or more accurately, his ex-wife, Lin Yuxi.

"Yu Xi, thank you for your help."

Wang Xingyu gave an awkward smile.

Two years ago, Wang Xingyu became madly infatuated with Xie Xiaoqing, spending over a million yuan on tips alone.

In the end, he broke with his parents and divorced Lin Yuxi.

Seeing his ex-wife now, Wang Xingyu felt incredibly ashamed.

"Have some water."

Lin Yuxi didn't embarrass him. She picked up the thermos and poured him a glass of warm water, her tone calm yet cold.

"Thanks."

Wang Xingyu took the cup, drank the water in one gulp, and when he handed the cup back, he noticed that Lin Yuxi's eyes were a little dark, obviously due to lack of sleep.

It's estimated that Lin Yuxi stayed with him during the time he was unconscious.

"I was unconscious for several days?"

"Three days."

"What are you doing at the hospital?"

Lin Yuxi's face turned cold.

"A woman called me and said you were in the hospital."

Needless to say, that person must be Xie Xiaoqing.

"Snapped!"

Wang Xingyu slapped himself hard across the face.

He was knocked unconscious because of Xie Xiaoqing, but it wasn't Xie Xiaoqing who took care of him; it was Lin Yuxi.

He had such a wonderful wife and such a lovely daughter, yet he chose to become Xie Xiaoqing's lapdog. He was utterly hopelessly stupid.

"Dad, why are you hitting yourself?"

Xiao Xin'er asked, puzzled.

"Because Dad is too stupid and dumb."

Wang Xingyu's eyes were a little red, and his voice was choked with emotion: "Dad is sorry for you and Mom."

Lin Yuxi turned her face away, a tear glistening in the corner of her eye.

"The doctor said you're fine. After waking up, you'll be observed for half a day and then you can be discharged."

Lin Yuxi took a deep breath and said, "Xiao Xin'er, it's time to go home and let Daddy get some rest."

"No, I don't want to! I want to stay with Daddy!"

Xiao Xin'er stepped forward and hugged Wang Xingyu's arm tightly, her little face full of stubbornness.

Wang Xingyu's eyes welled up with tears, and he felt utterly ashamed.

"Sweetie, you come back with Mommy. Daddy will come visit you tomorrow, okay?"

"Really?"

Xiao Xin'er's eyes lit up, revealing an expectant look.

"Dad swears."

"Then let's pinky swear."

Xiao Xin'er extended her little finger and grabbed Wang Xingyu's little finger, saying, "Pinky promise, never to change for a hundred years."

Wang Xingyu affectionately patted Xiao Xin'er's head and said, "Go."

"Dad, don't forget!"

Lin Yuxi pulled the reluctant Xiao Xin'er out of the ward.

As I reached the door, I heard Wang Xingyu's voice behind me.

"Yu Xi, I was wrong, I'm sorry."

Lin Yuxi trembled, seemingly never expecting her usually arrogant ex-husband to apologize to her. All the grievances and resentment in her heart surged up at once.

But she didn't turn around. Instead, she pushed open the door and went out with Xiao Xin'er.

"Snap"

Wang Xingyu slapped himself again, secretly resolving that he would definitely win Lin Yuxi back in the future.

After Lin Yuxi left, Wang Xingyu immediately checked out of the hospital.

The wound on his head had long since scabbed over thanks to the nourishment of the Causal Pearl.

"Dr. Wang, your hospital fees have already been paid."

The female cashier in charge of processing the settlement said with a smile.

Wang Xingyu felt a warmth in his heart; he knew that Lin Yuxi must have paid for it for him.

Do you know me?

"You performed my father's heart surgery last year."

Wang Xingyu is the deputy director of the internal medicine department at Antai Hospital, the largest private hospital in Haijiang. He is highly skilled in medicine, and many people seek him out for surgery. How could he possibly remember the female cashier's father?

"How is your father now?"

"The recovery is going very well."

"That's good."
