This chain was precisely the Heart-Seeking Curse from back then.
Song Qiming had once vowed never to leave Yu Yaxian, otherwise he would be plagued by misfortune and never succeed in his studies.
Yu Yaxian had also taken the same vow, unwilling to leave Song Qiming.
The two of them had spoken casually, but had not expected that Yue Qingqing, the cultivator, was eavesdropping nearby and conveniently cast a Heart-Seeking Curse.
At that time, with their affection deep and strong, Yue Qingqing temporarily sealed the vow.
But now although their love appeared as strong as ever, many rifts had already formed in their relationship.
It was time to activate the Curse Technique.
From this moment on, even if the two of them wished to part, they could not.
Lovers finally becoming a family, such a beautiful blessing.
The sly Yue Qingqing followed her elders home.
On the way back, while sitting on the bus, Lin Chunju and Yue Jiannan were still sighing deeply.
"It seems it won’t be easy for Yu Yaxian to marry that man."
Yue Jiannan hummed lightly, "She made her choice, who can she blame?"
Back when the Yue Family had not completely prospered, marriage into their family was considered beneath the Yu Family in the eyes of the villagers.
Yue Jiannan especially treasured her like a jewel in his palm, doting and loving her in every way possible.
But now the positions were completely reversed, yet all this was brought on by Yu Yaxian’s own doing.
At least in Yue Jiannan’s heart, it no longer stirred any waves.
After several months, he finally returned to the village, where his family members had already been waiting early at the bus stop at the entrance to the village.
The moment Yue Jiannan stepped off the bus, his luggage was snatched away by Yue Jiandong and Yue Jianxi.
Yue Xiaofang handed a finely-made brocade pouch to her brother.
"I sewed this especially for you, inside there’s a talisman from Wenqu Temple."
Yue Jiannan couldn’t help but laugh, "Why are you only giving it to me now?"
"Previously, I wanted mother to bring it to you, but she said those messy things weren’t allowed in the examination hall. Now that the results haven’t come out yet, it should bless you just in time."
Bathed in glory like the moon surrounded by stars, Yue Jiannan was escorted home.
People in Daye Village hadn’t seen Yue Jiannan for several months and greeted him one after another.
"How did the exams go? Will you be able to get into university?"
"Is it fun studying in the city? Have you found someone to date?"
"How many days is the college entrance exam? Is it difficult?"
Loving the lively scene, Yue Jiannan answered each one of them.
Some even ribbed him, calling him ’Yue Top Scholar.’ Anyone else would surely have been too shy to accept such a title.
But not Yue Jiannan, who immediately replied with a cupped fist.
"I’ll take that as a good omen!"
The crowd burst into laughter, actually not believing Yue Jiannan could get into university at all.
If university was so easy to get into, why hadn’t anyone from the village managed it all these years?
Along the way, they ran into the Yu Family, who were on their way to the convenience store to call their daughter.
Yu’s mother took a quick, indescribable glance at Yue Jiannan, her eyes emanating a dark glint.
Yu’s father grunted and said loudly, "An empty bottle makes more noise than a full one; just a half-year of study and he’s already full of pride."
The Yue Family couldn’t be bothered to respond, but Yue Jiannan was not one to suffer in silence.
"Let’s just wait until the results come out to see who’s right. At least I spent these six months studying, unlike some people..."
Yu’s mother, feeling guilty, feared that Yue Jiannan would reveal her daughter’s affairs and immediately began shouting.
"Enough, head of the family, let’s not waste words with him, our daughter is waiting for our call."
Yu’s father didn’t dare say more and quickly turned away, walking off with his hands behind his back.
Yue Qingqing looked at the Yu Family members and noticed they seemed far less prosperous than before, and she couldn’t help but shake her head.
It goes to show, every drink and peck is predestined.
If the Yu Family hadn’t harbored ill intentions from the start, they wouldn’t have ended up in such a state.
If they could stop here, it might still be good, but if Yu Yaxian harbored other malicious intentions.
Their situation might get even worse.
