With the cannon fodder script in hand, it is easy for the king to change his fate

Chapter 981 The Frail Heiress 26
Xia Zhen has had a Gu worm in her body for more than half a year. Logically speaking, her body should have started to have problems by now, and she shouldn't be so lively and energetic.

But the other person is currently fine, except for the red mark on their face, there are no other changes.

Yun Xiuzi quickly sent a message asking: Has the red mark on her face gotten bigger?
She's been busy cultivating the Life and Death Gu lately and hasn't seen Xia Zhen for a while, so she hasn't noticed any changes in her.

Her son would tell her that Xia Zhen would come to the hospital to see her every day, which was why she judged that Xia Zhen's health was not bad.

Looking back now, something's not right, it's completely wrong.

Before Lian Yang could reply, she sent another message asking if she was feeling unwell.
Lian Yang, who was replying to the message, was startled when he saw it.

Xia Zhen was in very good health, with a rosy complexion, and did not look sick at all.

He had heard his mother talk about the Life and Death Gu, and now that he thought about it, something seemed off about Xia Zhen's situation.

Lian Yang: The mark on her face doesn't seem to have changed; it hasn't changed for quite a while. I haven't heard anything about her being unwell; she's perfectly healthy. Mom, could something have happened? Or perhaps Xia Jinsheng found some expert who helped control it? Will the venomous insects we planted be removed?

Yun Xiuzi: Probably not. Ordinary people definitely can't handle this Life and Death Gu. If the Gu worm had really been discovered, the Holy Gu Clan would have been alerted long ago. Have you noticed anything unusual about the Xia family lately? Is there anything wrong with her?

Lian Yang: There really wasn't anything. She just went to class as usual, came to the hospital to see me, nothing else. They probably didn't find the Life-and-Death Gu; it's probably for some other reason.

Yun Xiuzi: It's probably some advanced medical treatment that's suppressed the Gu worm. Never mind, I've already taken care of things on my end. When I get back, I'll resolve your situation first, then deal with hers. As long as she's weak, breaking up isn't a problem; you can go and take care of her again. There will be plenty of opportunities. People often need to be cared for when they're at their most vulnerable.

Lian Yang breathed a sigh of relief; he felt the same way.

So what if Xia Zhen doesn't like him?
As her body grows weaker and he becomes the only one by her side, she will gradually become dependent on him.

That evening, Qiao Jiajia returned to her dormitory and clearly sensed that something was off.

"Something seems off. What's wrong with you two?" she asked, her gaze shifting between Qin Yin and Azhen. The atmosphere was tense, which was why Qin Yin kept glancing at Azhen.

Qin Yin didn't know what to say; she sensed Lian Yang's anger today.

Although the other party didn't say anything harsh, they did tell her that they hoped she wouldn't get involved in these matters.

This also confirmed to her that Lian Yang truly had no feelings for her.

Lian Yang clearly didn't care when he learned that Xia Zhen had been eating and drinking coffee with other people. Did he like Xia Zhen to that extent?
But now Xia Zhen has figured things out and has broken up with Lian Yang.

Qin Yin was worried that this might affect Lian Yang's condition.

"It's nothing, Lian Yang and I just broke up," A-Zhen said, adding that it was something to celebrate.

She originally planned to wait until Lian Yang and his mother's true colors were exposed before bringing this up, but Qin Yin's conversation gave her the opportunity.

It's not long before things turn sour, so it's good to end this superficial relationship sooner rather than later.

Qiao Jiajia was stunned: "You broke up?"

She subconsciously looked at Qin Yin, wondering if Qin Yin had done something.

“I don’t like Lian Yang. I was just moved and impulsive before. It’s better that we broke up,” Azhen said. “But everything else will continue as usual until he recovers.”

Actually, this matter could end before Lian Yang recovers and their true colors are exposed.

Qiao Jiajia was speechless for a moment. Since Xia Zhen didn't like Lian Yang, they should just break up.

She glanced at Qin Yin, still feeling that Qin Yin might be involved.

Thinking about it, Qin Yin has been acting a bit strange lately, but since no one in the dorm has said much, and they've already split up, she doesn't want to dwell on these trivial matters anymore.

"If you don't like it, it's better to break up."

"You're still involved in Lian Yang's affairs, so no one will say anything."

Lian Yang's roommates would occasionally visit him in the hospital and soon learned that he and A-Zhen had broken up. Then, other people at the school found out. At first, some people were indignant and felt sorry for Lian Yang, but after learning that A-Zhen would still cover all of Lian Yang's hospitalization expenses, those voices quieted down.

Some of the comments were unpleasant, but they didn't affect Azhen; those people didn't dare to actually dance in front of her.

Lian Yang couldn't worry about anything else right now; he just hoped his body would recover quickly.

Yun Xiuzi finally returned. After confirming that there were no problems with the offspring Gu, she implanted the mother Gu into Lian Yang's body.

The mother Gu (a type of Gu worm) works very quickly; the body can feel a noticeable improvement within two or three days. On the other hand, the offspring Gu (another type of Gu worm) show problems more slowly.

Lian Yang waited patiently for three days, but his health did not improve at all, and he began to panic.

"Mom, why are you so slow? Is it because of my health?" Lian Yang asked.

Yun Xiuzi frowned: "Let's wait and see. There will definitely be a noticeable change in ten days at the latest."

So Lian Yang waited patiently.

Recently, Ah-Zhuang has occasionally come to check on things, and when she sees Yun-Xiu-Zi in the hospital, she will say a few words to her.

Yun Xiuzi didn't mention much about her breakup with Lian Yang, focusing instead on Lian Yang's health.

Ten days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Lian Yang's condition showed no improvement. Yun Xiuzi checked the condition of the mother Gu and found no problems.

"Could the problem lie with the Zi Gu? It seems we'll have to make another trip."

Yun Xiuzi didn't dare to delay and went to that village again that day.

The Gu worm was perfectly fine inside the young man's body, without any problems. She rushed back the next day, looking somewhat unwell.

It was noon when Azhen came to check on Lianyang's situation. Actually, they were talking about the problems between the mother and son, and she came to watch the excitement.

Qin Yin was embarrassed, but she couldn't help but care about Lian Yang, so she came along too.

Yun Xiuzi didn't have a chance to speak to Lian Yang alone for the time being. At this moment, she finally remembered Azhen and glanced at the red mark on Azhen's face.

If we can't find the son's problem right now, we might as well check on Xia Zhen's condition.

Yun Xiuzi pretended to fall down, and Azhen caught her.

In an instant, Azhen noticed a Gu worm crawling onto her body, but she did not stop it.

It's time to let Yun Xiuzhi know what's going on.

"Aunt Yun, would you like to rest for a while?" Azhen asked. There was naturally a place to rest in the VIP ward, and she helped Yun Xiuzi there.

The latter did not refuse.

No!

How could it not be?
Where did the venomous Gu in Xia Zhen's body go?
Yun Xiuzi, who was resting with her eyes closed, couldn't believe it. That was a life-and-death Gu. Who could have quietly and without disturbing the mother Gu and brought out the offspring Gu?

Logically, if the offspring Gu is eliminated, the mother Gu should experience problems and even suffer a backlash.

If the mother Gu does not consume all the life force of the host of the offspring Gu, or the offspring Gu itself, then no matter how much life force it absorbs, it will ultimately be useless.

The backlash, though called a backlash, is actually a return to the beginning, albeit in a slightly more severe form.

No, really no!
How could it not be?
