Wu Xie had no idea what happened after that; he only knew that when he woke up, he saw Jie Yuhua.

"Little Flower?" Whether it's true or not, calling her that is definitely the right thing to do.

"I haven't had a chance to visit you yet, I didn't expect you to be discharged from the hospital so soon." Xie Yuhua poured him a glass of water, and then said hesitantly, "Now that you're back, why don't you go to your room? Why are you sleeping in the study?"

God knows how unbelievable it was when he came to the study to retrieve something this morning. One of the two men was lying face down with his head in his hands, and the other was huddled in a corner. Surrounding them were bronze fragments scattered all over the floor. But where did all this bronze come from in the study? Even the golden birdcage that Lingxiao was hanging on there had been torn down. Fortunately, there were no birds inside.

"Little Flower, is that you?" Wu Xie asked cautiously.

"Are you crazy to ask such a question?" Xie Yuhua laughed.

“I saw Ling Xiao,” Wu Xie said bluntly.

"What did you say?" Xie Yuhua frowned and took another step forward.

“It must be Ling Xiao, he disguised himself as you.” Wu Xie recounted what happened last night, but Xie Yuhua’s brows furrowed even more deeply.

“It might not be a child… If it were a child, why wouldn’t they come to me immediately?” Jieyuhua comforted Wuxie.

“Xiao Hua…” Wu Xie subconsciously reached out to pull Jie Yu Hua, and actually saw bronze-colored blood vessels emerging under the skin behind his ear, which looked just like the fungal veins on Xiao Ge’s neck. However, when he looked more closely, the thing disappeared.

Wu Xie's temples throbbed, and he immediately responded, "No, no, it's probably because I'm too tired. The dream was too real. You're right, how could Ling Xiao not come looking for you now that he's back?"

Xie Yuhua found him extremely strange, but he didn't want to bother with it. He found someone to take the two of them back to their room for a full check-up.

"How's the injury on your arm?" Wu Xie couldn't help but ask tentatively as Jie Yuhua was leaving.

"What injury?" Xie Yuhua looked down and scanned her shoulder again before instructing the family doctor to examine Wu Xie's brain. She then turned away without looking back.

"No injury?" Wu Xie blinked hard, glancing back at the still unconscious Xiao Ge. He didn't think he was seeing things; Xiao Hua did indeed have that thing on her neck, but why did it suddenly disappear? Could it be the bronze artifacts causing trouble...? He was truly bewildered, but what could he do if he couldn't believe Xiao Hua?

Wu Xie decided to go outside for a stroll, hoping to discover something different, but he ended up seeing Jieyuhua again…

But if these are all fake confidantes, won't the real Xiaohua be in danger? After all, they can't all be here at the same time, so it can only be that the real Xiaohua is being controlled.

The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed, so Wu Xie quietly retreated and began his mission to save Xiao Hua.

So during his recovery, the young man noticed that Wu Xie, who was in the same "hospital room" as him, was always sneaking around, leaving early and returning late.

He would always go out at unpredictable times, and when he came back, he would take out all kinds of flour from his bulging arms, break them apart into different pieces of paper, and hide them in various places on his body.

Whenever he saw the person named Jieyuhua, he would enthusiastically offer her a cup of water with flour in it, but the person never drank it.

Occasionally, he will do something out of curiosity, like smelling or tasting something, and then he can lie on the ground and sleep all day.
