Master, Your Wife Has Become a Super Star Through Fortune-Telling-Chapter 77 - 78: Ancient Man Child

Xiao Yue, who had been about to speak, choked on her words again. For a moment, she forgot what she was going to say, looking dazed and shocked.

"Not... not a coincidence?"

You could feel Xiao Yue’s shock even through the screen.

[Yeah, I thought something was off too. If a third-grader is struggling with addition and subtraction under twenty, there’s definitely a problem!]

[And didn’t Xiao Yue say her son used to be pretty smart?]

[I have a weird thought. His mistress’s daughter is supposedly really smart, but Xiao Yue’s son is getting dumber and dumber. Could there be a connection?]

These bullet comments flashed before the eyes of the still-shocked Xiao Yue.

Her expression was stunned, as if she was trying to remember something.

"But how is that possible! How could something like this happen in the world! This is just too absurd!"

But as soon as she finished speaking, a string of doubts floated across the screen.

[Why wouldn’t it be possible?!]

[In the streamer’s channel, I’ve even seen Spider Demons. This shouldn’t be that strange!]

But when Su Nian’s calm words appeared, it was the final blow.

"It is indeed man-made. That’s why your son became like this."

Hearing this, Xiao Yue’s face paled. A moment ago she couldn’t believe it, but after Su Nian’s confirmation, she was completely stunned.

When she came to her senses, she exploded in fury. "How dare that bitch do this to my son! That bitch!"

The "bitch" she was referring to was, without a doubt, the mistress.

But Su Nian shook her head. "There’s more than one bitch. Your husband was involved too."

Xiao Yue: ???

Audience: !!!!

[Holy crap, holy crap!]

[That scumbag was just complaining about his son not being smart, and it turns out he’s the one who caused it! How dare he have the audacity to complain!]

[What kind of animal is he? That’s his own son!]

Hearing Su Nian’s confident words, Xiao Yue also sensed something was wrong.

"My son... was harmed by his own father like this?"

Su Nian nodded and added, "Your son doesn’t have any major problems, but when you get home later, remember to flip over his mattress. There’s something special inside!"

Xiao Yue nodded blankly. Soon, her son’s checkup results came back, and indeed, nothing was wrong.

She drove her son home. Thanks to her house’s good location, she arrived quickly.

She watched her son dazedly holding an ice pack to his cheek to reduce the swelling.

Xiao Yue’s heart couldn’t take it anymore. She thought about how she used to feel a little annoyed by her son’s slowness, and now all she wanted to do was cry.

No one was home. That fool of a husband wasn’t there.

Su Nian: "Don’t worry. Your husband went on a date. He’ll be back tomorrow."

[LMAO, ’on a date,’ sure.]

[That mistress really deserves to die!]

[Why drag a child into adult problems? I really don’t get it!]

[Even if that scumbag loves the other woman, can’t he remember this is his son too?] 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Xiao Yue couldn’t accept it either. She felt the blood run cold in her veins.

’What if I can’t find it? And what if I do... what do I do then?’

But the most urgent task was to lift the bed slats.

But she ran into a problem. Although Xiao Yue worked out regularly, she wasn’t quite strong enough.

Luckily, her son was there to help. She lifted it enough to create a gap, and the boy helped her raise it further.

With great effort, they finally lifted the bed slats off.

Xiao Yue trembled all over. In the center, under the slats, was something wrapped in black cloth. When she sniffed it, there was a faint smell of dried fish.

With trembling hands, Xiao Yue slowly unwrapped the black cloth.

Her eyes widened. She was so focused that she even forgot her son was right next to her.

The little boy tilted his head, looking puzzled.

[What could that dark thing be?!]

[I have a feeling it’s one of those things from the Tai Country. My sister got one before. They’re really sinister and have to be wrapped in black cloth, but I’m not sure.]

[All I can say is, screw that bastard.]

When the black cloth was completely unwrapped, the object inside was revealed.

It was a bizarre, tightly wrapped infant figure. Its skin was so wrinkled and shriveled it looked as if it had been taken out of the womb before it was full-term.

And then there was her own child’s "Eight Characters" of birth. She still recognized her husband’s handwriting. Besides, only the two of them would know their son’s birth details so precisely.

With all the evidence before her, Xiao Yue clutched her chest, feeling as if she was about to faint.

But her son steadied her with his small hands.

"Mom, is this the present Dad gave me?"

"What!!!"

Xiao Yue was terrified. She whipped her head around to look at her son.

But the little boy looked a bit confused. "Dad said he was giving me a treasure. He had me sign my name on it and even pricked my finger to add two drops of blood. It hurt so much!"

"But Dad said the present wasn’t ready yet. He said he could only give it to me after it was ’all grown up.’ Mom, why did you open it now? Is the present ready?"

"But Mom, how did you know about the present? Dad told me not to tell you. He said it was a little secret between us."

Xiao Yue closed her eyes, then opened them again. In an instant, the despair in them was swept away, replaced by boundless hatred!

After taking a moment to compose herself, she didn’t say anything more. She gently took her son’s hand and put the bed back together.

Then she immediately called for bodyguards. Her husband was a potential threat, and she needed to ensure her and her son’s safety before she could fight back.

After doing all this, she calmly sent five "Carnivals" to Su Nian.

"Streamer, I want to ask how to break this."

"You have to send this thing off to get rid of the problem for good. Have your son drip his blood to awaken it, and then I can purify it."

"Okay!"

Her hand trembled as she held her son’s, but Xiao Yue steeled herself and pricked his index finger with a needle. When the first drop of blood fell, the ghoulish thing didn’t react.

But after five or six drops, it began to emit a strange black smoke.

Meanwhile, Su Nian began to softly chant a spell, her hands constantly forming seals!

The paper with the birth characters on it spontaneously burst into flames, quickly turning to ash. Then, the dark, lumpy object also began to burn rapidly.

To Su Nian, this thing was quite weak. It didn’t take much time for her to deal with it completely.

The objects were reduced to a small pile of black ash, which fell onto the black cloth.

"Master... what now?"

Xiao Yue’s hands trembled as she held the bundle.

"Now, find a reliable master. Tell them this was your child, then give them your son’s birth date, but pushed back by four hours. Have it properly buried according to that new birth time!"

"Be careful. You must be completely sincere in your heart. Treat this thing as your own relative. Don’t do anything disrespectful, or if it latches onto you, the consequences will be severe."

"Okay..." Xiao Yue nodded, shuddering at the thought.

"As for your son, you need to take him away immediately. It would be best to go abroad for two or three years before coming back!"

"This Ancient Man Child is one of a pair of twins. The other one, with your husband’s illegitimate daughter, is its sibling. But that one is very vicious. It has been constantly drawing nutrients from this one. Your son was tricked into willingly giving up his talents, which that one absorbed and transferred to the illegitimate daughter."

"But now that you’ve dealt with this one, the other will definitely be affected. As long as you get far enough away, it won’t be able to influence you. By the time you come back, it will have long since faded away, and that family will face the punishment they deserve."
