Imperial Doctor Zhong had also been puzzled by this incident, but it was after all a private matter of others, and it was difficult for him to ask.

Bai Zhi looked at the furnishings in the room and thought about the situation of the old lady just now.

When Wei Xuan appeared, his expression was calm and steady. But his eyes have betrayed his heart. There were emotions in his eyes, but he doesn’t know what kind of emotion it was. It was very complicated. She was afraid that only he knows what he was thinking at that time.

“He must have his reasons for doing this. Maybe, just to be with his mother!” Or maybe, he was afraid that his mother would lose her mind and would be harmed by the gu, so he became the killer.

Of course, she didn’t dare to say this nonsense.

After a while, Wei Xuan came out of the inner room with an iron kettle in his hand. He nodded to Imperial Doctor Zhong, went to the water tank outside to fill with water, and then took charcoal from the stove and put it in the hall.

The iron kettle was placed on the small stove and letting the water boil. He took out a few white porcelain bowls from the cabinet. They were much more beautiful than the bowls on the table. They were new and at least had no gaps.

He put tea leaves in each bowl and brought out half a plate of snacks. After finishing all these tasks, he bowed his head to Imperial Doctor Zhong and said, “Please forgive me if I didn’t greet you well.”

Imperial Doctor Zhong hurriedly waved his hand: “Don’t say such a thing, we bothered you first.”

Wei Xuan’s gaze fell on the broken bowl on the table. The gu worm in the bowl entered his eyes. His flat brows instantly frowned and his expression slightly changed.

Imperial Doctor Zhong asked: “Do you also know this heart-bitting gu?”

Wei Xuan nodded: “I have seen it in the book. It roughly looks like as written in the book.”

As soon as Bai Zhi heard this, she rushed forward and asked urgently: “Is there written in the book on how to get rid of this heart-bitting without harming the human body?”

Bai Zhi’s voice was clear and crisp, like a jade pearl falling on a silver plate.

He turned his head to look at Bai Zhi. Since entering the door, his attention has been on his mother and Imperial Doctor Zhong. He never looked at the others.

Looking at the girl in the pink dress at this time, he found her eyes bright and clear, as if there was a stream of autumn water in her eyes.

Every time her long eyelashes blinked, it seemed to like a small fan, fanning a warm breeze, and it was blowing on the face with warmth.

She looked beautiful. Look beautiful than the ladies in the painting.

Seeing Wei Xuan staring at the other girl in a daze, Imperial Doctor Zhong quickly coughed.

Wei Xuan returned to his senses and blushed, he quickly bowed his head to Bai Zhi and said: “I hope you don’t blame me for my gaffe.”

He confessed that he had lost his mind. Bai Zhi smiled secretly but didn’t show it on her face. She simply asked again: “Young Master Wei, you haven’t answered me yet.”

Wei Xuan let out a cry. He couldn’t remember what she asked just now. There were only those bright and moving eyes in his eyes, which were as clear as a mountain spring without any variegated colors or emotions. When he saw it, he found it different.

Imperial Doctor Zhong said hurriedly: “She asks you if here written in the book on how to get rid of this heart-bitting without harming the human body.”

Wei Xuan busily replied: “There must be. However, when I read the book, I was still young and didn’t read it seriously.”

Bai Zhi asked urgently: “Where is the book? Is that book still there? Can I borrow it?”

Wei Xuan shook his head: “The book is not with me. It’s at my uncle’s house. I lived at my uncle’s house when I was a child. I saw this book at my uncle’s house.” His uncle was also a gu cultivator. His mother learned cultivating gu from his uncle.
