Xi Lingxian examined herself from head to toe with great seriousness, but there wasn't a single scar.

However, there is indeed a faint red line on his arm that is not noticeable unless you look closely.

This is their evidence that they claim they were bewitched.

Was she really bewitched?

But she felt perfectly normal.

Xi Jian was frightened by Mr. Zhou's words. Forgetfulness Gu was fine, but what if it was Devotion Gu? What if his daughter inexplicably fell in love with someone who was no good in any way?

He didn't expect his son-in-law to become successful, but he wasn't generous enough to give away his own wealth and status.

More importantly, he worried that someone might use the Gu worms to harm his daughter.

Xi Rui's mouth gaped slightly as he listened. He had to admit that if this Gu worm hadn't been placed on his sister, its effects would have been truly remarkable.

In all the world, who can compare to the Wang family of Langya?

Many talented and extraordinary people served under him.

Mr. Zhou is knowledgeable in witchcraft, so the most urgent task is to dismiss Xi Lingxian.

"If Gu poison were so easy to cure, people wouldn't be so terrified of it."

When the three doctors learned that it was a Gu poison, they felt helpless.

It's a terrifying insect that can remotely control people's minds, corrupting their bodies, minds, and will.

Doctor Zheng took out a bottle of pills from his sleeve and handed it over. "If it is a love-obsessed gu, then the person bound to the gu can control the girl's mind and body. Although this is not an antidote, it can suppress the gu worm."

He stepped forward and accepted the peach branch.

Xi Lingxian scratched her cheek. "Am I really under a spell? But I don't feel anything is wrong."

Mr. Zhou's eyes deepened. "Being controlled by Gu worms means you're no longer a complete person. Does the young lady mind?"

Xi Lingxian seemed thoughtful. "Could this thing be life-threatening?"

Mr. Zhou shook his head. "But if she's exploited by others, she'll become a complete zombie."

Fear finally showed on Xi Lingxian's face. "Alright, alright, then I'll trouble you to help me find a way to remove the curse."

Mr. Zhou bowed deeply, fully clothed, and said, "I will do my utmost."

Xi Lingxian punched her fist, glanced at everyone, and asked, "...Can I go to sleep now?"

Putting aside the fact that she doesn't remember Wang Jue, everything else is really the same.

Wang Jue clenched his fists, his expression inscrutable.

Xi Lingxian had no intention of meeting his gaze and quickly looked away.

This person is good-looking, but he's just too fierce.

"Let Fanfan rest." The fact that his daughter had been inexplicably cursed was a devastating blow to Xi Jian. He was determined to do everything in his power to restore his daughter to normal.

At this point, the usefulness of the young master of the Langya Wang clan came into play.

As the foremost aristocratic family in China, they held the most premium resources in the world.

The most skilled doctors, the finest medicinal herbs...

The best of everything belongs to them, if they so choose.

Wang Jue has no shortage of extraordinary talents under his command. Mr. Zhou and Chen Ting both understand Gu poison. They have seen through their young master's unusual thoughts and are already busy researching antidotes.

Xi Rui felt a strange sense of sympathy for Wang Jue, so he couldn't bear to refuse Wang Jue's request to speak with Xi Lingxian alone.

Xi Song jumped up and down, "No, no, my sister doesn't even recognize him anymore. What if she gets angry and smashes a vase over the back of his head?"

"You reminded me, did the person who was subjected to severe torture vomit anything?" Xi Rui pulled Xi Song outside, "Come on, let's go take a look."

Xi Song's face turned pale instantly. "I'm not going, I'm scared."

"You're so pathetic. If you just look around more, you won't be afraid anymore."

In an instant, only the two of them remained in the cabin.

Xi Lingxian blinked, bent her legs in front of her, and crossed her arms.

"You...you really don't remember me?" Wang Jue tried to soften her expression and not be so aggressive.

Xi Lingxian looked into his eyes and inexplicably felt as if tiny insects were gnawing at her chest.

No, I don't remember.

"What is our relationship?"

Wang Jue's gaze was fixed. "We are engaged."

Xi Lingxian's eyes widened suddenly.

"You...you're not lying to me, are you?"

Wang Jue sat down on the edge of the bed, his expression gentle. "You heard what those people said just now. The effect of the love potion is to make you forget the person you love."

"Then think about it, why do you remember everyone else but forget me?"

That seems to make sense.

Xi Lingxian bit her lip and tilted her head. "But, but if that's the case, who put the curse on me? Why would they do that?"

Without hesitation, Wang Jue replied, "It's someone who likes you. He's jealous of you and me, so he wants to use such despicable means to steal you away from me."

Xi Lingxian asked incredulously, "Do you know who harmed me?"

"pretty close."

Xi Lingxian was a little confused.

She had absolutely no memory of this person, so it was hard for her to believe that he was suddenly her fiancé.

"Don't try to fool me, I need to ask my father."

"You don't believe me?"

She nodded emphatically.

Wang Jue: "...Why?"

"When I see you, I feel uncomfortable all over; my subconscious wants to stay away from you."

"The person who used the curse on me is definitely not a good person, but you might not be either."

Wang Jue's heart suddenly clenched.

"But now you need me to help you get rid of your job. Don't you trust me?"

Wang Jue pressed his hand on her shoulder and said firmly, "Try to trust me. I won't hurt you, okay?"

Xi Lingxian suddenly felt as if her internal organs were being scratched by insects.

She suddenly broke free from him, her expression pained. "Don't touch me."

"Where do you feel unwell?"

Xi Lingxian bit her lip. She was fine just now, but as soon as he got close, she felt restless and uncomfortable all over.

"You, don't, don't come near me."

Wang Jue narrowed his long eyes slightly.

These symptoms look exactly like a love curse.

He needed to erase her feelings for him and prevent her from getting close to him, otherwise she would be tormented by the Gu worms and suffer unbearable pain.

Xiao Yun.

It must be Xiao Yun. Who else but Xiao Yun would be so determined to have her?

Only then did Xi Lingxian realize that something was really wrong with her body. She subconsciously wanted to grab Wang Jue's arm, but was frightened by the tingling sensation from earlier and withdrew her hand.

Looking at him, she thought, "I... I haven't been afflicted with that 'love-obsessed curse,' have I?"

Wang Jue nodded.

"It seems like someone is controlling you, preventing you from getting close to other men."

Xi Lingxian gritted her teeth, "Whoever is so despicable, if I catch them, I will personally turn them into eunuchs."

"..."

His temper hasn't changed at all.

"Breaking the curse is not something that can be done overnight. I'm worried that person might take advantage of the situation to harm you."

"What if he fully activates the Gu worm, causing you to lose all reason and fall in love with him? You would uncontrollably agree to all his demands..."

Xi Lingxian felt nauseous and got goosebumps just thinking about it. "I definitely wouldn't."

"No one can get close to me."

Wang Jue suddenly grabbed her hand, but she dodged it as if it were a plague.

He then realized that she could not be near other men now.

"I do have a plan, but I don't know if you'd be willing to try it."
