Chapter 316: Wu Xiaoyu’s Midnight Dilemma

However, Mu Feiyan seemed not to hear, as she calmly and rhythmically walked down the stairs without even turning her head.

What’s going on? Could it really be a ghostly possession? This house is in the military camp, with such strong Yang energy, how could there be evil spirits?

Wu Xiaoyu followed Mu Feiyan slowly, anxiously yelling, “Mu Feiyan… Mu Feiyan, what’s wrong? Can you hear me?”

Mu Feiyan, who had gone downstairs, walked straight to the living room, sat on the sofa, picked up a magazine from the coffee table, and started flipping through it page by page.

Reading a magazine in the living room late at night without turning on the lights? This bizarre behavior made Wu Xiaoyu alarmed and anxious.

God damn it! Though my family has been butchers for generations and I have Qi Refining Realm cultivation, I’m not a professional Mage! Why am I encountering so many strange and eerie things?

Wu Xiaoyu pulled out the Jade Token from around his neck, held it in front of him, and prepared his spiritual power with the other hand, ready to test Mu Feiyan.

“Mu Feiyan…” Wu Xiaoyu called her from behind, but Mu Feiyan continued flipping through the magazine as if she hadn’t heard.

Damn! Could it be some powerful evil spirits? How come I can’t detect anything?

Wu Xiaoyu tentatively placed his right hand on Mu Feiyan’s shoulder, ready to pour spiritual power into her body to expel any unseen evil spirits.

However, as soon as he touched Mu Feiyan, she suddenly turned her head, stared blankly at Wu Xiaoyu, then turned back.

Her empty, vacant eyes truly scared Wu Xiaoyu. Damn it! Do they have to be this terrifying?

Wu Xiaoyu poured spiritual power from his right hand into Mu Feiyan’s body, searched around, but found no traces of evil spirits. Instead, he realized Mu Feiyan was completely unconscious.

Walking around the house late at night without consciousness, sitting in the living room reading magazines? Could she be suffering from sleepwalking?

Determined that Mu Feiyan was not possessed by evil spirits, Wu Xiaoyu waved his hand in front of her eyes, seeing no reaction, confirming her unconscious state.

Wu Xiaoyu gently felt her pulse and diagnosed carefully, finally confirming she had sleepwalking disorder.

Though she could walk and ‘read’ magazines, she was still in a sleep state, which explained why she didn’t respond when called.

For sleepwalkers, it’s crucial not to awaken them. The best approach is to gently guide them back to their room.

Even though Wu Xiaoyu had the means to treat sleepwalking, it was inconvenient to do so now, so he lifted her hands, trying to guide her back to the room.

But just as Wu Xiaoyu was about to grab her hands, he saw her starting to take off her nightgown. Damn it! I’m not that kind of person; don’t try to seduce me!

Wu Xiaoyu dared not wake Mu Feiyan, so he let her strip off her nightgown. Should he go upstairs alone, pretending nothing happened?

But if she were to run outside naked, it would disgrace Mu Zhuangfei’s family and make Mu Feiyan a laughingstock.

More importantly, Mu Feiyan was unconscious; she was acting mechanically. If an accident happened, it would be terrible.

After much hesitation, Wu Xiaoyu finally lifted her dropped nightgown, put it back on her, and gently lifted her arm, trying to make her stand up.

Mu Feiyan indeed stood up as Wu Xiaoyu hoped, but her nightgown fell off again as she stood.

Faced with her curvaceous, fair, and delicate body, Wu Xiaoyu couldn’t help but react.

To prevent himself from losing control and doing something shameful, Wu Xiaoyu quickly picked up her nightgown, draped it over her from the front.

Wu Xiaoyu was about to fasten a few buttons when he heard footsteps coming from the upstairs hallway.

Damn! If Mu Zhuangfei and his wife saw this, even jumping into the Yellow River wouldn’t clear my name!

Wu Xiaoyu quickly squatted down, caught in a dilemma. If he quietly slipped into the dining room, he might avoid detection.

But such a move would seem too guilty. How would he explain if found later?

If he righteously escorted Mu Feiyan upstairs, even if Mu Zhuangfei knew his daughter had sleepwalking.

But if he saw his daughter naked, he’d hardly forgive him.

As Wu Xiaoyu hesitated, he realized the footsteps sounded like Li Qianqian.

Having woken up needing to pee, Li Qianqian was headed to the bathroom when she heard the sound of pages turning downstairs, her curiosity piqued, she decided to go down.

At the stairway corner, she saw a figure in the living room, vaguely recognizing it as her cousin.

“Cousin, what are you doing?” Li Qianqian asked curiously while walking downstairs.

Hearing Li Qianqian’s voice, Wu Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief. It really was Li Qianqian; what a scare!

Seeing the crisis had passed, Wu Xiaoyu stood up, ready to stop Li Qianqian from shouting.

Li Qianqian came downstairs and saw Wu Xiaoyu standing next to her cousin and felt a surge of jealousy, shouting, “Wu Xiaoyu, why are you here?”

Damn it! Do you have to shout so loudly? Wu Xiaoyu rushed forward, covered her mouth, and whispered, “Li Qianqian, could you lower your voice a little?”

Raging Li Qianqian was not easily subdued, she bit Wu Xiaoyu’s hand and cursed, “You shameless!”

“Listen to me explain…” Wu Xiaoyu covered his injured hand and hissed softly.

Seeing he was angry, Li Qianqian begrudgingly glared at Wu Xiaoyu, then glanced at her cousin, questioned:

“What’s there to explain! Why are you two up in the middle of the night doing in the living room?”

Wu Xiaoyu was about to explain when Li Qianqian bypassed him and walked to Mu Feiyan, seeing her cousin wearing her nightgown backwards, she was shocked!

Li Qianqian saw Mu Feiyan nearly standing naked in the living room and was too stunned to speak.

Her cousin was wearing just a nightgown, fooling around with Wu Xiaoyu in the living room in the middle of the night, how shameful!

Before Wu Xiaoyu could explain, Li Qianqian angrily scolded Mu Feiyan, “Cousin, how can you do this?”

“And in your own living room, what if Uncle and Aunt found out, how would they scold you!”

But after scolding, she saw no response from her cousin. Shouldn’t she feel ashamed?

Just as Li Qianqian planned to touch Mu Feiyan, Wu Xiaoyu hastily shouted, “Stop!”

Li Qianqian saw Wu Xiaoyu caring so much for her cousin, fearing she might hurt her, and felt even more jealous.

“Wu Xiaoyu, you are disgraceful! How can you do such scandalous things in the living room?” Li Qianqian angrily rebuked.

Blinded by rage, she paid no heed to her loud voice, which worried Wu Xiaoyu might wake Mu Zhuangfei and his wife, he hurried to her, silencing her, and explained:

“Your cousin has sleepwalking disorder. I didn’t do anything with her, please don’t misunderstand, alright?”

Li Qianqian was stunned, looked at her cousin, and saw she was still motionless, becoming somewhat convinced.
