Chapter 393 The little ghost wants to steal his body?

The room fell into deathly silence, followed by a few screams. After a moment of chaos, Zhou You was sent back to his room to sleep.

"Master Lian, is that little devil bothering our Xiaoyou?" Old Mrs. Peng was anxious as she looked at her precious grandson lying on the bed.

"It was that brat who was pestering Master Zhou," Lian Rong nodded seriously, "Master Zhou is about to turn twelve, and his body is weak. That brat wants to take advantage of the situation and snatch Master Zhou's body away!"

Hearing this, Mrs. Peng and Mr. and Mrs. Zhou Pengfei were all frightened.

Especially Madam Peng, she was afraid and even more angry. She glared at Fan Qingyu and cursed in a low voice, "What did I say at the beginning? I didn't let that bastard play with Xiaoyou, but you didn't listen!"

"Mom, Qingyu didn't do it on purpose," Zhou Pengfei protected his wife, "That child didn't seem to be a bad kid before."

Madam Peng glared at him angrily, "How can a mistress's child be a good child!"

"Mom, your words are a bit discriminatory. Didn't you like that child very much before?"

"He wants to harm my grandson now, can't I just say a few words to him?" Old Madam Peng became even more angry, and picked up the cane in her hand and hit Zhou Pengfei twice, neither lightly nor heavily.

Zhou Pengfei quickly hid backwards.

Fan Qingyu's heart was filled with regret and disbelief. She regretted that if she had known this would happen, she would never have let the child play with Xiaoyou.

But she felt that the child was not a bad child.

The Ranran they were talking about was the illegitimate son of the Chen family in their villa complex. His full name was Chen Ran. He was the same age as Zhou You, and what was even more coincidental was that their birthdays were on the same day.

Because Chen Ran was an illegitimate child and was raised in the countryside, he had an introverted personality, which led to no children in the area wanting to play with him and they all excluded him.

But Zhou You likes to play with him very much and often invites him to his home.

Zhou You has been different from other children since he was young. From a scientific point of view, he has autism. From a metaphysical point of view, he is born with congenital deficiencies and is missing a soul.

The Zhou family consulted many masters to have their calculations done, and they all said that as long as they raised the child well, the lost soul would automatically fill the place when the child was twelve years old, and the child would return to normal.

Therefore, everyone in the Zhou family tried their best to take care of the children as they grew up.

But because of this, other children were unwilling to play with Zhou You, and sometimes they would secretly bully him when the adults were not around.

Once, when Fan Qingyu was taking her children for a walk outside, she received a work call. In just a short while, Zhou You ran to the amusement park in the community to play, and was then bullied by some naughty kids in the park.

Chen Ran was there that day too. When he saw Zhou You being bullied by those naughty kids, he stepped forward to help him beat the kids away.

When Fan Qingyu hurriedly found the child, she happened to see Chen Ran beating those children away. She was about to go forward to see if Zhou You was injured.

Chen Ran, with wounds all over his face, pulled Zhou You up and complained about him.

"Are you stupid? Why don't you fight back when they hit you?"

Upon hearing this, Fan Qingyu's first reaction was anger. How could this child scold their child?

But Zhou You's reaction the next second shocked her. Zhou You, who would not let anyone touch him except his grandmother, father and mother, and would scream if others touched him, did not reject Chen Ran pulling him.

After Zhou You was pulled up by him, he said softly but firmly, "Xiao You is not a fool."

Her child spoke!
Zhou You actually didn't reject the stranger at all and even talked to the other person.

The shock that scene brought to Fan Qingyu took her a long time to calm down. Later, they also found that when playing with Chen Ran, Zhou You was like a normal child in every other aspect, and could talk and laugh, except that his reaction was a little slow.

So the two excluded children became familiar with each other, and Chen Ran would often go to Zhou's house to play with Zhou You.

At first, the Zhou family, especially the rather old-fashioned Mrs. Peng, were not very happy about Zhou You playing with an illegitimate child. But when they saw Zhou You playing with Chen Ran, he acted like a normal child and rarely got sick. Even when he went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said that the child's condition had improved.

Therefore, Mrs. Peng did not object to the two children playing together, and sometimes she would take the initiative to go to Chen's house to invite Chen Ran to come and play with Zhou You.

But accidents always come so suddenly. On the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, Chen Ran’s child went out alone to buy things and was hit by a drunk driver. He died due to lack of timely rescue.

They did not tell Zhou You about Chen Ran's death. They only said that the child had moved to a faraway place and would never come back.

They thought that as long as the child's lost soul returned to its place automatically when he was twelve years old and became normal, he might forget Chen Ran's existence.

Even if he still remembered Chen Ran's existence, the child had become normal by then, and when they told him the news of Chen Ran's death, he would be able to accept this fact more calmly.

On the day when Zhou You found out that Chen Ran couldn't play with him anymore after 'moving away', he suddenly fell ill and was admitted to the hospital.

After that, Zhou You had no friends to play with him. He became more autistic than before, more immersed in his own world and unwilling to communicate with others. He often played alone in the toy room where he used to play with Chen Ran, and his seizures became more frequent than before.

At first they all thought that the child couldn't get used to the absence of his friends all of a sudden, but it would get better over time.

But Zhou You's condition not only did not improve, the attacks became more frequent, and sometimes he would use a knife to hurt himself and others. It was as if he had become a different person.

So all these abnormal behaviors of the child are caused by the ghost of Chen Ran. He wants to take over Zhou You's body and occupy the magpie's nest?
Aren't they good friends? Why did you want to harm Xiaoyou?

Mrs. Peng accidentally hit Fan Qingyu with her cane, instantly pulling her out of her thoughts.

Mrs. Peng saw that she had accidentally hurt someone, so she took back her cane in dismay and coughed, "Master, please drive that little devil away from Xiaoyou."

"The little ghost's soul has already merged more than half with Young Master Zhou's body. We can't separate them for the time being," Lian Rong said.

Hearing this, the three members of the Zhou family turned pale. Old Mrs. Peng's eyes went dark and she staggered. Zhou Pengfei supported her in time.

"What should we do then, Master Lian?!" Zhou Pengfei said anxiously.

Lian Rong waved his hand, "Don't worry, today is August 15th, the day of extreme yin. At twelve o'clock in the evening, I will use a ritual to ask the ghost to take the little ghost's soul out of Master Zhou's body."

Hearing this, Mrs. Peng and Zhou Pengfei immediately breathed a sigh of relief and kept saying thank you.

But Fan Qingyu had an indescribable feeling when looking at Lian Rong, but since the other party was a master with whom their family had collaborated many times, she did not think about it too much.
