  This time, Chu Mu was out for a longer time, but Shen Ran's health was deteriorating very quickly. Chu Yue realized that if this continued, Shen Ran would not be able to survive until Chu Mu came back.

  "Chu Yue, is he back?" Shen Ran leaned on the bed, his face extremely pale, his body extremely thin, as if all his strength had been drained away. He held the quilt in his hand and said weakly, "Did he say when he would be back?"

  "He should be back soon. My brother said yesterday that he was about to succeed. Brother Shen, please hold on for a while." Chu Yue followed Chu Mu's instructions and lit a talisman fire for Shen Ran every day to nourish his soul. However, even so, the effect was still minimal. Shen Ran was also very clear about this. He forced a smile and said, "Forget it, give up."

  "That won't do, Brother Shen. Just hold on for a while. When my brother comes back, he will save you." Chu Yue reached out and held Shen Ran's hand, as if he wanted to warm up his cold hand. He said, "You have finally come to this point today. As long as you get over this hurdle, you can keep going."

  "I want to, but I'm too tired." Shen Ran closed his eyes slightly, and he forced himself to cheer up, and smiled, "Chu Mu hates me, right? What happened three years ago, and what happened to you later... He hates me for everything, right?"

  "I don't know... But Brother Shen, when I saw you three years ago, I knew for the first time that my brother must have fallen in love with you." Chu Yue said with a smile, "Because my brother is a person who never wants to get too close to others. Even with Lin Jiaojiao, they can only be considered to have a slight acquaintance. My brother would never let her live in the Chu family, let alone next to his room."

  Shen Ran didn't say anything. He looked at Chu Yue quietly. Chu Yue continued, "I remember that day when you entered the Chu family. My brother arranged your accommodation. He talked to the elders for a long time, and finally he was very stubborn to let you live in the Chu family. Although there are very few people whose souls are seriously injured by ghosts, it is not uncommon. Moreover, for a Feng Shui family like ours, we have seen countless cases. But my brother never cared. He said that life and death are determined by fate and cannot be forced."

  "Life and death are determined by fate...and cannot be forced..." Shen Ran murmured in a low voice.

  "Yes, but he insists on being strict with you, even if it goes against the Chu family's long-standing principles." Chu Yue said.

  Shen Ran was of course very clear about Chu Mu's style of doing things, including the encounter that day, which was actually just a play performed by Shen Ran to target Chu Mu and lure him into the circle.

  He thought it would take some effort, but he didn't expect Chu Mu to be so cooperative.

  "Later, you two got together. During those three years, not only my brother, but we all didn't doubt you. I don't know if it was because you were too good at disguising yourself, Brother Shen, or because of some other reason... Until the day when the incident broke out, for you, your three-year plan went down the drain, and for my brother, it was like the sky fell..." Chu Mu lowered his head and whispered, "In fact, I only found out later that the reason why your plan failed was because of the conspiracy of the Wang, Bai, and Lin families. They arranged a spy in the Chu family to replace something, and the Bai family gave the wrong location, so that you fell into their trap."

  Shen Ran had no idea what Chu Yue was talking about. He subconsciously raised his head and looked at Chu Yue. Although he couldn't see anything, there was confusion in his eyes. He asked, "Is it arranged?"

  "Yes, it was arranged. That's why the evil spirit you controlled lost control that time and killed me by mistake." Chu Yue took a deep breath and lowered his eyes. "My brother only found out about it later. Before he knew it... he kept blaming himself and feeling regretful..."
