Her destiny stolen? The Divine Witch Ancestor has returned!

Wu Zhao put away his phone.

She walked over to Gu Chen and picked up the blanket that had slipped off his lap.

“Wu Xingyun messaged me. He hasn’t been paying attention to the Shen family for a while… It seems we’ve been letting them live too comfortably.” Wu Zhao patted his arm. “I won’t see your father for now, and you shouldn’t meet with them for the time being either.”

Remembering the talisman she left on Yue Jinsheng's back, Wu Zhao reminded him, "If you experience any severe pain in your legs these next few days, be sure to tell me."

That reversal spell can only be activated when the other side activates the life-threatening spell. After seeing Yue Jinsheng with broken bones all over his body, Madam Yue will definitely not let it go.

Little did she know that activating the Death-Taking Talisman would be the death knell for her precious son!

"I understand." Gu Chen nodded, his dim eyes turning towards the direction of the voice. "Zhao Zhao, if my eyes continue to be bad, you..."

Wu Zhao tightened his grip on his arm: "No, don't overthink it."

Once the life-threatening talisman on Yue Jinsheng expires, Gu Chen's overwhelming fortune will naturally return.

By then, neither the malevolent energy that covets his fortune nor the poison that blinds him will pose any threat to him.

Gu Chen is an emperor star protected by the Heavenly Dao. Once the shield of the Death Talisman disappears, if the Heavenly Dao discovers that anyone dares to have evil intentions towards him, they will be struck by lightning and their soul will be destroyed.

“You have to trust that your subordinates are all highly capable elites,” Wu Zhao said. “Maybe Jin Yao has already analyzed the ingredients of the poison.”

Gu Chen was silent for a while before saying, "Director Mo's program, does it need to be re-recorded?"

"Yes, the Shen family has invested in this program. Wu Xingyun just told me about this. They touched my things, so it seems she's prepared to pay the price."

Relying on the curse mark within Wu Zhao's body, and the strange luck and yin energy protecting him, he dared to do whatever he wanted?

Shen Jiaojiao didn't have the guts to ask the production team to contact her, but she asked Wu Xingyun to participate in the show. That's really interesting.

Wu Zhao thwarted the other party's plans several times in a row, so this time Shen Jiaojiao set her sights on Wu Xingyun.

Gu Chen raised his hand and felt around for a moment, then grasped Wu Zhao's hand in return.

A gentle purple aura flowed into his body, and Wu Zhao heard him say, "You need to be careful. There's a reason she's so bold. According to what you said, since she can take what belongs to you directly, she must have some greater backing."

"I know." Wu Zhao felt his warm, dry palm pressed against the back of her hand.

A tingling sensation came over him, making Wu Zhao slightly withdraw his fingers uncomfortably.

His grip tightened, and Gu Chen held her hand tightly without letting go.

Wu Zhao subconsciously raised his head to look at Gu Chen, whose eyes were empty and unfathomable.

As if by magic, it almost sucked her soul in; she stared at those eyes in a daze, not quite realizing what was happening.

A subtle, almost imperceptible warmth flowed between the two.

Although Gu Chen was blind, his senses were exceptionally strong.

The earlobes hidden among her hair felt slightly warm.

"I... am waiting for you to come home."

Wu Zhao snapped out of his daze and nodded.

"……it is good."

……

Early the next morning, Wu Zhao saw Jin Yao rushing over in the living room.

He didn't look well; he had dark circles under his eyes and stubble on his face that he hadn't had time to groom.

However, he looked very excited, his face flushed with excitement, and said, "The analysis results are in. Although the toxin did cause great damage to the patriarch's optic nerve at first, before I could analyze its specific components, the toxin actually began to be broken down by the patriarch's blood."

"The effects of this poison on the patriarch's eyes will fade over time! The patriarch's eyes will soon regain their sight!"

After he excitedly voiced this conclusion, he only received a glare from Zi Yao.

"Oh, so it has nothing to do with you. It's just that the patriarch has an excellent physique. Then why are you so excited?" Zi Yao pouted, his tense emotions relaxing a bit after receiving good news.

Jin Yao's expression froze, and he stammered, "Then, isn't Gao, Gao Xing, is the patriarch alright?"

Wu Zhao sat on the sofa and breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the news.

Sure enough, it just takes time.

“In that case, you will take turns watching over Gu Chen these next few days. I think… his vision will recover within three days.” Wu Zhao thought for a moment, “I may leave temporarily in the next two days, so don’t let anyone disturb Gu Chen before I return.”

Looking down at the message Mo Dahai had sent on his phone, Wu Zhao said, "I need to take care of something with Mo Dahai. I'll be back in five days if things go smoothly, or... seven days if things take longer?"

Lan Yao was right next to her and accidentally glanced at her phone. "So... who's going with Miss?"

They all knew that the show was a team survival program, requiring participants to team up with another person. Moreover, Wu Zhao and Gu Chen had previously been a "newlywed couple" pair.

If Gu Chen doesn't go, will the production team agree to let Wu Zhao participate in the show alone?

"It doesn't matter. Mo Dahai said the Shen family went all out this time to invite a top celebrity to bolster the show." Wu Zhao was indifferent to the format of the program. "The others have enough to watch, so it won't make a difference if I'm a little bit more. There's no rule saying it has to be two people, is there?"

Uh… Zi Yao asked tentatively, “Miss Wu, you don’t follow the news on Star Blog, do you? After the show’s live broadcast ended, the director released all the live broadcast clips, and you and the head of the family were really popular…”

Wu Zhao: ?

Although the show was plagued with problems and deaths, the duo's popularity was astounding.

Otherwise, the director wouldn't have edited out the scenes involving the two people and put them on Starbucks.

Wu Zhao looked at the phone Lan Yao handed him, where netizens were enthusiastically discussing some details of the two's interactions and the so-called "sweet moments" that had been dug out like photoshopped images.

“…Kids these days have such rich imaginations.” Wu Zhao began to doubt himself.

Could it be that she really harbors ill intentions towards the Son of Heaven?

Netizens say she often gets close to Gu Chen, and she always unconsciously reaches out to touch him.

Wu Zhao: ...Wasn't that to steal the purple energy from him?

Some netizens also said that after she fell into a coma, only Gu Chen could get close to her, and she would unconsciously reach out and hit anyone else who came near.

Feeling a little awkward, Wu Zhao pressed the ring, thinking that it was because she didn't resist the purple aura on Gu Chen's body...?

There were even some short articles with divergent thinking that almost made her throw her phone away.

"You all think so too?" Wu Zhao quickly shoved the phone back into Lan Yao's arms. "Don't you know very well about my relationship with Gu Chen?"

Zi Yao and the others exchanged glances, none of them daring to mention that their master's motives were impure.

An awkward atmosphere gradually filled the air...

Wu Xingyun's voice came from outside, calling out, "Grandma, I've come to pick you up!"

Wu Zhao breathed a sigh of relief and stood up: "Never mind, it will be fine once the show is over and people stop paying attention."

Watching her walk outside, Zi Yao almost laughed: "It seems that our future mistress of the family hasn't realized our family head's thoughts yet."

"Sigh, if you ask me, they're both so special to each other, it's impossible that they don't have any feelings for each other, right?"

There was a click.

The sound of porcelain breaking came from the second floor. When the group looked up, they saw Gu Chen pushing a wheelchair onto the second floor.

A cup was still broken by the footsteps.

"What...did you say?" Gu Chen's deep eyes looked downstairs.

You mean Zhaozhao... has a special feeling for me?
