"Do you mean your dad is having an affair now?" Lin Yan’s face immediately changed. No matter how composed or innocent a woman is, she won’t look good upon learning of her husband’s betrayal. Ye Qiu was surprised that her mother didn’t start crying hysterically or become completely lost. Although her hands were shaking, she was already much calmer than Ye Qiu expected.
"Mom, don’t panic, it’s because those mother and daughter used a secret technique. Dad is now uncontrollably developing feelings for Cheng Qing."
"You said her name is Cheng Qing?"
"Yes."
"No wonder he easily developed feelings; she was his first love."
Ye Qiu quickly tried to persuade her, "Mom, now is not the time to settle scores with Dad, but the time to deal with them trying their best to get close to our family and extract our family’s luck. If we let this continue, our whole family will have terrible misfortune."
"What did your master say?" Lin Yan’s eyes were intensely focused on Ye Qiu.
"Master said she hasn’t met Cheng Qing yet, so it’s hard to analyze the specific situation. However, based on speculation, there is a very powerful person behind those mother and daughter plotting for them. At first, Cheng Yixue intended to exchange lives with me, but by coincidence, I blocked her attempt. However, they’ve already targeted our family, and they won’t easily give up without achieving their purpose. Mom, now that my brother is abroad and I’m on my guard, the easiest targets for them are you and Dad."
"Where is your master now? I want to meet her."
"Master is currently staying at a temple in the city center; if you want to see her, we can go now."
If Lin Yan had any doubts about her daughter’s words at first, they vanished instantly when she met Daoist Miao Ran. Some people just easily influence others with their presence.
"Master, please save our family." Lin Yan finally shed tears. She hadn’t experienced many things in her life, and what she showed was her last bit of strength in front of her daughter.
"Ye Qiu is this poor Daoist’s only disciple. Please don’t worry, Miss Lin. What we need most now is your cooperation." Daoist Miao Ran comforted her.
"Daoist, just tell me what to do, and I’ll cooperate for sure."
"Ye Qiu mentioned before that Cheng Yixue has already influenced your natal family, so now I suspect not only your husband but also your nephews have been enchanted. Those mother and daughter are quite strange, and you need to alert your elder sister-in-law."
"My eldest brother, my Zi Yi has also been affected?" Lin Yan felt a chill run through her.
"Last time, I saw cousin with Cheng Yixue, and afterwards, senior sister said cousin’s aura had changed, likely due to his luck being absorbed. Furthermore, cousin’s attitude towards me turned very bad, believing I’m the reason he’s not with Cheng Yixue. Mom, involving uncle and cousin in this matter won’t work, as there’s no reason to speak to someone already bewitched."
"Are they actually that sinister?"
"That’s why our whole family needs to be alert."
"Daoist, whatever you say, I’ll listen to you."
"It would be best if you can find a way for your husband, brother, and nephews to stay as far away from those Cheng Family mother and daughter as possible. I still haven’t figured out their details, so I’ll need some time."
"I’m afraid that’s not possible." Ye Qiu shook her head, "Dad’s current work focus is here, there’s no reason for him to travel far."
"Then keep this Jade Talisman close to you, even when showering, do not take it off."
Lin Yan immediately recognized these as good jade and promptly offered Daoist Miao Ran a heavy reward.
"There’s no need." Daoist Miao Ran smiled kindly at Ye Qiu, "Ye Qiu is my only disciple, how could I take your money?"
Ye Qiu followed suit and said, "Mom, since Master won’t accept, just donate the money to a reliable charity."
Lin Yan suddenly understood, "The Daoist indeed has a high realm."
The mother and daughter later visited Ye Qiu’s Aunt Chen Yun, who isn’t a housewife like Lin Yan but has been working at the Lin Family’s company. Although the Lin Family’s assets aren’t as much as the Ye Family’s, Chen Yun has far more power than Lin Yan.
Upon hearing about her son being bewitched, she wasn’t surprised like Lin Yan since she had already noticed differences in her son.
"I was wondering why he’s changed lately, turns out he’s been enchanted and had his luck taken away." Aunt Chen’s imposing presence was strong, and her anger terrifying.
"Aunt, we haven’t figured out their details yet, please don’t act rashly, calm down, you must calm down."
"What did Ye Qiu’s master say?"
"This is the peace charm given by her master; when you get home, make sure your whole family wears it to be less affected." Lin Yan took out three Jade Talismans, "Ye Qiu’s master doesn’t take money from family, but if you’re willing, donate some money to charity."
"Got it, Ye Qiu, thank your master for me later."
"Daoist said it’s best to let them temporarily stay away; do you have any ways?"
Aunt Chen sneered, "I can’t temporarily transfer your brother away, but Lin Ziyi is no problem."
Ye Qiu admired her aunt for this aspect, a strong businesswoman who had everything in her grasp. If only her mother could learn a bit.
The mother and daughter spent the whole day busy outside, returning home at nine in the evening, but Ye Yuanan still hadn’t returned.
"I thought he was really working, didn’t expect he’d be stopped by his first love." The more Lin Yan thought about it, the angrier she became, feeling betrayed.
"Mom, stay calm, Dad is also bewitched."
"If his mind was firm, could he be bewitched?"
"Mom..."
"Don’t worry, I won’t settle scores with him yet, but I do want to find a time to meet Cheng Qing and see what kind of person she is."
"I’ll go with you."
Lin Yan knew her daughter was concerned about her safety, so she didn’t refuse.
While the mother and daughter waited at home, Ye Yuanan was with his first love Cheng Qing, full of tender amorous feelings.
"Yuanan, thank you for helping me find this job. Without you, I truly wouldn’t know what to do!" She slightly raised her chin, her eyes shimmering, full of admiration.
Ye Yuanan was instantly moved; she was the first woman he ever loved, and even after all these years, she was still so beautiful and captivating.
"It’s nothing; you are very capable, even without me, you would definitely manage."
"Stop coaxing me." Cheng Qing laughed, "I even went to apply at your company last month, but didn’t get hired."
"With your work experience, how could that be?" Ye Yuanan frowned.
"But there must’ve been better candidates." Cheng Qing didn’t say much, but she knew Ye Yuanan would definitely investigate, leading to more feelings of guilt toward her.
"I’ll provide you an explanation." Ye Yuanan promised.
"Really, there’s no need, don’t make it difficult for your subordinates. I already have a good job now, don’t I?"
Ye Yuanan thought to himself, is that really the same?
