Believe It Or Not, I Already Caught You

Because of Elder Wus need for magic tools, Master Mao and Minister Lou used almost all their connections in the search for all the magic tools they could find.

But no matter how well-connected they were, in todays post-divinatory era, it was still incredibly difficult to find good magic tools.

Although the magic weapon couldnt be found for a while, Chen Yus first New Year in the capital came first.

Chen Yu, wearing a red sweater, helped Mayor Chen put up the couplets, and then went to the kitchen to give Mother Chen a hand. As the mayors wife, Mother Chen usually didnt cook much, and she herself wasnt very fond of cooking. But every year at New Years Eve, she would always personally cook the dinner.

One was because the nanny aunt was home for the holidays. The other was that on days like the New Year, Mother Chen wanted everything in the family to be made by her own family.

Mom, will the dumplings fall off if I stuff them in like this? Chen Yu asked as she packed the sizzling dumplings.

A bit will, but it wont be terrible, Mother Chen finished and reminded her, Remember to bring some vinegar too. Dumplings without vinegar will taste a little worse.

Oh Chen Yu responded. After thinking for a moment, she asked, Mom, can Brother eat these things now?

Chen Yang finally woke up two days before the New Year, and after another 24 hours of observation in the intensive care unit, he was finally transferred to a general ward. Although his condition had greatly improved, he still couldnt be discharged from the hospital in a short time. Mother Chen was afraid that his son would be lonely in the hospital for the New Year, so she prepared some dishes for the New Years Eve family dinner and planned to go to the hospital to accompany Chen Yang to welcome the New Year.

He cant, Mother Chen said and packed up the braised pork she had just made.

Then why are we still preparing so much? Chen Yu wondered.

We eat them ah. Your brother can watch, Mother Chen said with a smile.

Mom, are we going there to care for my brother or to stimulate him? Chen Yu couldnt help but stammer.

Its just a formality. The point is that our family is eating New Years Eve dinner together. Mother Chen reasoned. She looked at the second floor and said, Or you should stay at home with Elder Wu.

Mother Chen and Mayor Chen had to go to the hospital to spend the New Years Eve with Chen Yang, but it would be asking too much to let Elder Wu accompany them. Hence, their reunion meal was scheduled for noon. At dinner, theyd have to come home to accompany Elder Wu for another New Years Eve dinner together. However, Mother Chen felt that it was quite impolite to leave a guest in the house while the host family headed out.

Its okay. I talked to the old ma Grandpa. Under her mothers disapproving gaze, Chen Yu changed her address. Besides Grandpa never celebrates New Years Eve. Back when I was in Damu Village, he used to take me out every New Years Eve.

Take you out for what? Mother Chen asked curiously.

Take me out to exorcise gho Er just something like that ah. Noticing that her mother instantly froze, Chen Yu hurriedly stopped the conversation.

After saving Chen Yang in the hospital that day, Mr. and Mrs. Chen only asked why Chen Yu knew these spells, as well as made sure that the spell that saved Chen Yang would not cause any harm to Chen Yu. They didnt ask any more questions after that. They didnt ask, so Chen Yu also didnt say much. It was just that when they talked occasionally, they would no longer deliberately and sedulously avoid the topic as before.

Especially after Elder Wus arrival; he occasionally recounted the past and always mentioned exorcising.Whenever that happened, Father Chen remained calm, but Mother Chen was a bit scared. After one or two instances, Chen Yu slowly noticed it. Later, she restrained mentioning much about it in front of her mother.

Mother Chen packed the last dish and closed the lid of the thermos.

Mom, give it to me. Ill take it to the car, Chen Yu said and took the thermos from her mothers hand. She turned and ran outside.

Mother Chen watched her daughters cheerful back as she jogged away, and a trace of chagrin flashed in her eyes. She was chagrined at her own cowardice. It was rare for Shishi to take the initiative to mention her past experience. How could she be so useless that she couldnt even control her fear even after listening?

After everything was ready, Mayor Chen drove the three to the hospital. The family of four ate a simple and delicious New Years Eve dinner in Chen Yangs single ward. Of course, Chen Yang, who just awakened not long ago, could only drink a mouthful of chicken soup.

After eating, Chen Yu helped Mother Chen clean up the lunch boxes on the table together, and then the family sat down to chat. Mother Chen was holding a fruit knife and peeling apples for them.

Chen Yu found it too troublesome, so she just grabbed an apple and directly gnawed on it -nom-nom-nom.

Ill have it peeled in a minute, Mother Chen couldnt help but say.

Its okay. Chen Yu smiled cheekily and continued to nibble on the apple in her hand.

Chen Yang smiled despite himself and asked, I heard that Elder Wu came to Beijing? Chen Yang woke up only the day before yesterday. His mental state had been bad for the past two days and barely improved today.

En. Chen Yu nodded.

Then Shishi are you alright? Chen Yang asked.

Me? Chen Yu blinked in confusion. What can happen to me?

If you were fine, Elder Wu wouldnt have come to the capital, Chen Yang said with certainty.

Although Chen Yang had no memories of when his soul left his body, he himself knew best how his injuries were at that time. His parents also both mentioned about Chen Yu saving him. As a person who had witnessed Chen Yus battle against a Ghost King, Chen Yang felt that his assumption was completely reasonable.

Theres nothing Grandpa came here just to celebrate the New Year. Didnt you guys always urge me to ask him to come here for the New Year? Chen Yu laughed it off, trying to muddle through it.

Shishi Since youve saved me, it makes no difference to say anything now. But at least you should let us know what happened to you in order to save me. Chen Yang said seriously, Otherwise, Mom, Dad and I cant be at ease.

Chen Yu was taken aback. She turned and looked around only to see that their father and mother, at some point, looked at her worriedly.

Although you keep saying that saving Yangyang has no effect on you, but even if we dont understand metaphysics at all, we know that it is extremely difficult to bring the dead back to life, Mayor Chen remarked.

In the past, no matter how they asked Chen Yu to pick Elder Wu up to the capital, Chen Yu always said she couldnt contact him. However, as soon as Chen Yu fainted, Elder Wu rushed to the capital the next day without being informed.

It was such a coincidence. Even if Chen Yu insisted that her move that day completely had no impact on her, how could they believe her? They didnt pursue it, firstly because they didnt understand how the Metaphysical world worked. They were afraid that they might touch a taboo that shouldnt be known to the public. Secondly, Chen Yu obviously intended to conceal it, so they found it inconvenient to dig deeper.

However, not asking didnt mean they werent worried deep inside. Luckily, Elder Wu came just in time. He made them feel a lot more at ease.

On Zhang Ziyangs matter before, you told me that the price of reversing fate against the natural order is tremendous. Then, when you saved me

Not the same, its not the same. Your situation is different from Zhang Ziyang, Chen Yu quickly interrupted without waiting for Chen Yang to finish.

Where is it different? Chen Yang asked.

Its just Chen Yu didnt know how to explain Metaphysics to three ordinary people, so she once again attempted to muddle through. Aiya, you guys wont understand it even if I say Anyway, Im perfectly fine.

The three of the Chen family looked at each other. Finally, Father Chen spoke, If you really dont want to tell us, we dont have to know. Just if something bad really happened to you, you must tell us.

Shishi, your dad and I are ordinary people, and we dont understand anything in your Metaphysical world. You dont know how worried we were after you passed out that day. If Elder Wu hadnt arrived the next day, we Mother Chen choked on her voice as she spoke, I only want you to live well. You and Yangyang are both my children. Nothing can happen to either of you.

Seeing how Mother Chen was crying while talking again, Father Chen sighed and comforted his wife gently while wiping her tears.

I I When Chen Yu saw her mother crying, she panicked: Im really fine, Mom. Dont cry.

Chen Yu deliberately concealed everything because she was most afraid that her mother would react like this.

The more Chen Yu pacified her, the more Mother Chen imagined things, and so her cries turned sadder.

Aiya Im really fine. Chen Yu was tangled for a long time before resigning to her fate. Alright, I admit it. Grandpa came to the capital indeed because of me.

Mother Chen immediately stopped crying, and the three people looked at Chen Yu in unison, listening to her attentively.

At that time, I used a forbidden technique when I saved Big Brother, and this technique had a certain backlash on me. Thats why I suddenly fainted that day. Grandpa sensed that I had used the forbidden technique that day. He was afraid that I would suffer a backlash so he came here to find me, and then healed me, Chen Yu briefly explained the cause and effect.

Healed you? Mother Chen still had some doubts.

Really. If I wasnt cured, do you think the old man would be in the mood to lounge around in his room playing games all day? Thinking of that internet addicted old man, Chen Yu couldnt help but want to castigate him, even forgetting to call him Grandpa.

Mother Chen and Father Chen exchanged glances, and both saw the incredulity in each others eyes. It turned out that Elder Wu was hiding in his room all day, not practicing making talismans, but playing games?

So you guys just rest assured. Im really fine, Chen Yu reiterated anew.

Then you must not mess around again in the future, Mother Chen instructed uneasily.

Mom, why do you always talk about me? Why dont you talk about my brother. Had he carried his amulet properly, these things wouldnt have happened, Chen Yu directly dumped the blame.

The Chen couple immediately turned their attention and looked at a certain culprit.

Ouch Why do I feel a little pain in my chest? I may need to rest for a while, Chen Yang said, lying down spontaneously, and covered himself with his quilt.
