That person had said, Chu Youxuan wanted to borrow luck, and the thing she brought back to raise, both required time.
One couldn’t rush these things. This included the blood she was now dripping onto something. Although it could exert its greatest effect, that would at least take a month.
After a month, the thing she was raising should almost be able to harmonize with her. Otherwise...
She feared the backlash when things go to extremes!
"I’ve thought it through!" Chu Youxuan clenched her teeth and bit down on her hand, dropping blood onto it.
All she wanted now was for Li Xingwan to suffer retribution. She would do anything for that!
Not to mention the fear of extreme backlash.
The agent watched her drop blood onto it, feeling somewhat eerie. After all, she had never done this herself; she had only heard about it.
She swallowed hard and turned her gaze away. The more she looked, the scarier it seemed.
Wu Kangkang was passing by outside. He didn’t know what Chu Youxuan was doing. After all, since coming back, she would often hide in her room with her agent.
His dad had even asked him to look into it, but he couldn’t care less.
Wu Shixun had just gone out. With nothing better to do, he was wandering around the house, about to go downstairs when he saw that scene.
He was startled and immediately turned to run downstairs. At that moment, Chu Youxuan heard the noise outside and got up to check. She caught Wu Kangkang just as he was about to dash downstairs.
"Wu Kangkang, what were you doing outside my door?!"
Wu Kangkang looked at them, his face flushed red with anger. "What could I possibly be doing outside your door?! Don’t wrongly accuse me, alright?"
He had just seen Chu Youxuan dripping blood onto some rock, but he hadn’t seen the details clearly.
But it seemed like he had vaguely heard some of the words her agent had said.
"Let me go! Let me go!"
Wu Kangkang struggled. Chu Youxuan watched him, her expression growing darker and darker. She didn’t know exactly what he had seen or heard.
But the one thing she did know was that she absolutely couldn’t let Wu Shixun find out about this.
He already despised her as it was, and had only held back until now out of some semblance of decency.
If he were to find out about this, he would surely announce their divorce immediately.
"I was worried you might misunderstand," Chu Youxuan crouched down and pretended to explain to Wu Kangkang earnestly. "Someone in my family is seriously sick and injured. I was afraid something bad might happen to them, so I had my agent get some folk remedies. Do you understand?"
Wu Kangkang turned his head and glanced at the live variety show being watched in her room.
He clearly saw the figure of Li Xingwan on the screen.
As well as the few people around her, chatting and laughing with her.
Thinking back to Chu Youxuan’s recent blood dripping gesture, he had a feeling that it wasn’t as she described.
But luckily, Wu Kangkang was smart now.
He wouldn’t go against Chu Youxuan, nor would he show any reaction in front of her.
"Who in your family is sick?" he asked casually.
Perhaps it was the recent interaction with Little Mobao, playing with him for a few days, so he had picked up a bit of his composure.
"It’s... one of my sisters," Chu Youxuan replied. "You haven’t met her, but you should call her auntie. She’s of the same generation as another auntie you’ve met before."
"Oh, I see. Is she feeling better now?"
Seeing him ask like that, Chu Youxuan let out a heavy sigh of relief. "Much better, much better. All better now. Kangkang, you’re so considerate, even worrying about my family."
