“Blockhead!” The old man was startled and supported him quickly.
Feng Jiu’s eyes narrowed slightly, she frowned and said: “Open up his clothes.”
“Oh? Undress him? Oh, alright.”
The old man responded and started to untie Zhuo Junyue’s clothes. Just as his hands had reached out to remove his trousers, Feng Jiu, who was watching at the side, twitched at the corners of her mouth and asked: “Why are you taking off his trousers?”
The old man was startled and looked at her in astonishment: “Didn’t you tell me to undress him?”
A few dark lines appeared across her forehead and she glanced at the old man: “No need to remove his trousers.”
Having spoken, she stepped forward and placed the child on the bed before she opened up Zhuo Junyue’s clothes and examined him. When she saw a little red patch on his chest, she didn’t speak. The old man next to her gasped.
“This, this is the Concentric Curse! d.a.m.n it! They actually used such underhand methods!” The old man looked angry. His hands were twisted tightly into fists and they made a clicking noise.
“In addition to his memory being tampered, there is also the Concentric Curse.”
Feng Jiu frowned: “It’s not that troublesome when memories have been tampered with. I can use hypnosis to make him regain his memories. But with the Concentric Curse, I will have to either find the person who cast the curse, or Fourth Young Mistress.”
“Help him retrieve his tampered memories first, then we will find a way to remove the Concentric Curse.” The old man said, his face was as black as the bottom of a burnt pot. It was shameless for a reclusive family clan to use such underhand methods.
“I need him to wake up to perform hypnosis on him.” Feng Jiu said. She took out her silver needles and pierced one into the acupoint on his head. After a while, he woke up slowly.
“What’s wrong with me?” He asked. He felt a blood qi had backfired earlier that injured him, but he didn’t know how it had happened.
“What’s wrong? You, why do you have to be so handsome? All this happened because of your face. Well, now your memory has been tampered with and someone has cast a Concentric Curse on you. I think your wedding is definitely going ahead.” The old man snorted in annoyance softly, at the side of the bed.
Upon hearing those words, Zhuo Junyue was stunned. He looked down and saw a small red patch on his chest. The pain he had experienced earlier had come from there.
“Can you undo it?” He asked Feng Jiu.
“Don’t worry! It can be undone!” She said as she looked at him and continued: “First, I will help you undo the fake memories they have given you. Relax and don’t think about anything.” As soon as she had spoken, she looked at the old man beside her: “Old man, go and stand guard outside. Before we come out, do not let anyone come in and disturb us.”
“Understood.” Sage Hun Yuan said. He was just about to walk out when he saw the child asleep on the bed and asked: “Do you want me to take Hao’er out?”
Feng Jiu glanced at the child and when she saw that he was already asleep on the bed, she said: “No need.”
Upon seeing this, Sage Hun Yuan went outside and guarded the room. In the room, Feng Jiu waved her hand and set up a soundproof barrier, then she took out a pendant from s.p.a.ce and said to Zhuo Junyue: “Look at my pendant and relax, think about nothing.”
While the hypnosis was going on inside the room, outside, the guards in the Manor hadn’t alerted the guests that they were conducting a search. When they were pa.s.sing through South Paradise Courtyard, they noticed that the two guards guarding the courtyard had their acupoints sealed, so they shouted: “Go back and report to the Patriarch quickly, and we will proceed into the courtyard.”
When the old man sitting in the courtyard saw the people outside pouring in, he snorted softly: “They came quickly.”
