Chapter 195: An Niang blames herself
Zhang Shulan was slightly stunned when she heard this.
Still unaware that he was being suspected, he answered truthfully, "After I returned home with Niuniu, I accidentally learned that Mr. and Mrs. Sun had come here. I was worried about them, so I followed them here."
"Is it that simple?" Not only Chu Ci expressed doubt, but even Ding Yong and Sun Fu found it hard to believe.
However, Zhang Shulan continued calmly, "That's true. It was Granny Yan, who helps with the house cleaning, who told us that Mr. Sun and his wife were coming here. That's how we found out and followed them."
Her tone was sincere and her eyes were calm, as if what she said was true.
At this time, Sun Fu and Ding Yong also said, "When we went out, it seemed that Granny Yan did ask us some questions."
"As for what was asked specifically and how we answered, I'm sorry, Boss, we were so confused at the time that we really don't remember it."
Chu Ci couldn't help feeling speechless.
Can this matter be let go so easily?
Just when Chu Ci was feeling extremely conflicted, the purple-robed envoy had already received the news and hurried over.
As soon as he entered the room, Fifteen couldn't wait to tell Niu Niu everything in detail, from the state in which she was found tied up at the beginning, to the series of events that followed, as well as the various abnormal situations that occurred.
After listening to Fifteen's story, the Purple-Robed Envoy began to look at Zhang Shulan and Niu Niu carefully. His eyes were filled with scrutiny and inquiry, as if he wanted to find some clues from them.
However, Zhang Shulan behaved as normal as ever.
As for Niu Niu, he had seen her no less than a hundred times.
But just when the purple-robed envoy felt that the clue was about to be lost, suddenly, the strange color in Niu Niu's eyes caught his attention.
He couldn't help but exclaimed "Huh?", which made everyone present turn their eyes to him.
The purple-robed envoy did not speak, but instead stared straight at Chu Ci.
Chu Ci understood his meaning instantly and immediately signaled Fifteen to take Zhang Shulan and Niu Niu away first.
After the outsiders left and confirmed that no one was eavesdropping, the purple-robed envoy slowly said, "Niuniu is very likely to have been cast under a spell."
"The art of incantation?" In his previous life, Chu Ci, out of curiosity, had spent some time studying the relevant content.
So Chu Ci quickly reacted at this moment, "What the Purple Envoy meant is that Niuniu was hypnotized by someone unintentionally?"
The purple-robed envoy nodded. Ding Yong and Sun Fu felt more and more confused when they heard the words Chu Ci said. Chu Ci hurriedly explained.
"That is to say, all the previous behaviors were not Niuniu's original intention at all."
When Sun Fu heard this, she immediately became extremely anxious: "Who on earth is this? Who is so cruel and crazy that he actually took advantage of an innocent child!"
Compared to Sun Fu's anxiety and emotional outburst, Ding Yong seemed calmer and more rational. He immediately followed up with a question: "Is there any way to break this Zhuyou technique?"
After saying this, Ding Yong stared closely at the Purple-Robed Envoy and Chu Ci, his expression full of eagerness and anticipation, as if he was eager to know how to resolve the difficult situation before him.
When the purple-robed envoy heard this, his brows slightly furrowed, and various situations of the Zhuyou technique quickly flashed through his mind. "Theoretically, it should be possible. However..."
"But what?" Sun Fu asked anxiously before the purple-robed envoy could finish his words.
"I just noticed that the strange color in her eyes is very deep. As far as I know, there is no human ability that can solve it."
The Purple-Robed Envoy first gave Ding Yong and his wife a glimmer of hope, and then poured a basin of cold water on them.
Chu Ci thought to himself: With this kind of behavior, aren't you really worried about getting beaten?
Just as Chu Ci was muttering to himself, he did not expect that the purple-robed envoy suddenly said something, directly involving himself in this situation.
"However, from my point of view, your boss seems to be quite familiar with the art of incantation. Maybe she has a way?" The purple-robed envoy looked at Chu Ci with a hint of inquiry and expectation in his eyes.
And as the purple-clothed envoy said this.
Ding Yong and Sun Fu's eyes suddenly lit up, as if they had grasped the last straw of fate in the darkness.
They looked straight at Chu Ci with hopeful eyes and shouted in unison: "Boss——"
When Chu Ci heard the shout, he was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. He was really dragged into this mess for no reason.
Forget it, things have come to this anyway, and I am not afraid of the itch even if there are too many lice.
Chu Ci shook his head helplessly, a bitter smile appeared on his face, and then he slowly said: "I can try it, but I'm really not sure what the specific result will be."
"After all, this art of incantation is extremely secretive, and the methods used to perform it are also different. There are many variables and uncertainties involved."
"We understand." Although they responded like this, their hearts were filled with endless bitterness.
Sun Fu even doubted herself deeply in her heart, her thoughts were in a mess, "Is it because of me that Niuniu has suffered so many disasters and tribulations?"
"Is it because I, as a mother, failed to protect her that she fell into such a difficult situation?"
Her eyes revealed deep pain and self-blame, and her face became extremely gloomy.
Chu Ci was shocked, and immediately said to her firmly: "No, it's not like that, Sun Fu, you are definitely a good mother, this is not your fault at all."
"The ones who are wrong are those who have bad intentions, who are thinking about Niu Niu, and who are taking advantage of Niu Niu."
"Really?" However, Sun Fu didn't seem to believe what he said, and her eyes were still filled with deep doubt and pain.
Chu Ci was not discouraged and continued to say: "Yes, it must be so."
"Also, I swear here that I will do my best to rescue Niuniu."
"So, as Niuniu's mother, you must take good care of yourself."
"Think about it, if Niuniu recovers and finds out her mother is gone, she will feel guilty for the rest of her life. Do you want to see Niuniu suffer such a painful ending?"
While Chu Ci was trying to persuade Sun Fu, he stared at her closely, his words were earnest and sincere, trying to dispel her inner doubts and pain.
At this moment, Ding Yong also understood Chu Ci's intention.
He quickly joined in, and said anxiously and seriously: "Ann Niang, you promised me. No matter when, where, or what situation we are in, our family of three will be together. You can't break your promise."
