Xia Xianning caught a glimpse of his reaction and knew who was on the other end of the phone.
Sure enough, Luo Yingbai was silent for a long time, finally saying weakly: “Xianning is also here… yes…” and then the call was hung up.
Xia Xianning consciously turned the steering wheel, and the car originally heading to Luo Yingbai’s school turned in the opposite direction: “Was it a teacher?”
Luo Yingbai said: “Yes. Both Dad and… Mom are back. Dad asked us to return. But Mom’s illness is not yet cured.”
Xia Xianning kept one hand on the steering wheel and reached out to pat the back of his head: “She’ll get better.”
“
Carefully calculating, Luo Yingbai hadn’t seen his parents for a long time.
The separation curse that Luo Yingbai suffered belongs to the latter.
The separation curse: if not separated, then death will separate. Those cursed cannot speak about anything related to witchcraft but will develop murderous intentions towards all relatives and friends known before the curse. Initially, Luo Yingbai had to leave home and couldn’t explain the reason to his family, so he had to pretend to have a conflict with his father to escape.
Although the Xia and Luo families didn’t know about the separation curse, they never gave up searching for the attacker. Three months after leaving home, Xia Xianning’s side finally investigated the mastermind’s identity and passed the message to Luo Yingbai.
Luo Yingbai, staking his life as a contract, turned passive into active, using the special relationship between the curse caster and the cursed to restrain the other party. Although he never found the person’s exact whereabouts, he could at least ensure they wouldn’t act rashly.
The person originally meant to control him ended up being controlled instead – a feeling that was probably not pleasant.
Luo Yingbai always suspected that his death in the previous life was a trap set by the other to escape him, though this was never confirmed. Now reborn, with the curse gone, he didn’t know what changes this would bring to the entire situation.
