Chapter 990 Xiaoyu’s Crisis
“I won’t give you another chance to leave me. You are mine, mine!”

Xiaoyu became even more emotional. Lin Mengya saw that his long black hair instantly turned into a thick coquettish purple.

The followers behind Xiaoyu suddenly took a few steps back, knelt on the ground, and kept kowtowing to him.

Regardless of anything else, Lin Mengya put her arms around Xiaoyu’s waist and shouted his name hard.

“Xiaoyu! Xiaoyu! Calm down! I’m here. I’m with you!”

His grip on her waist became tighter and tighter, so tight that Lin Mengya felt as if her waist was going to be broken.

But she was still reluctant to let go. She realized that Xiaoyu’s situation was obviously a little weird.

“Mengya, what’s wrong with him?

Qinghu frowned and looked at Lin Zhongyu with vigilance in his eyes.

Lin Mengya shook her head with difficulty and kept patting Xiaoyu on the back with her hands.

The manic youth gradually calmed down, and his black eyes gradually regained their clarity.

“Sis… Sister…”

Xiaoyu said in a hoarse voice, with a hint of guilt in his tone.

“It’s okay, it’s okay. Xiaoyu, don’t be afraid. I’m here.”

Lin Mengya had mixed feelings. Even though she had no idea what had happened, it was obvious that Xiaoyu’s condition was a little weird.

She glanced at the group of people kneeling behind him. It seemed that a lot of things had happened after she left.

“I’m here to pick you up. I’m sorry to make you worry.”

Realizing that he was wrapping his arms around Lin Mengya’s slender waist tightly, Xiaoyu blushed and immediately let go of Lin Mengya.

Seeing that Xiaoyu subconsciously wanted to avoid her, Lin Mengya grabbed his hand quickly, with a gentle smile on her face.

“It’s nothing. I also have good news to tell you. Let’s go and find a place to rest.”

So the atmosphere eased, but apart from Lin Mengya’s men, Xiaoyu’s subordinates all looked at Lin Mengya with awe in their eyes.

Even though Xiaoyu seemed to have returned to normal, no one dared to look up at him.

“Okay, let’s go.”

Xiaoyu gently tried to pull his hand back, but he failed.

With a gloomy look on his face, Xiaoyu led them to the courtyard where he had stayed before.

The decoration inside was just like that of an ordinary farmer’s house, but now, the people standing inside and outside the house were all future talents and elites.

Lin Mengya left Qinghu and the others outside and went into the inner room with Xiaoyu.

“Well, here are no outsiders, only you and me. Xiaoyu, can you tell me what happened?”

From beginning to end, Lin Mengya did not let go of Xiaoyu’s hand.

Xiaoyu was always so sensible that Lin Mengya felt sorry for him. She wanted Xiaoyu to act like a spoiled child like Moyan, but he always hid everything in his heart and gave her a bright smile only, even if it was piled up with his tears.

“I… I’m fine. You said that you had good news for me. What is it about?”

Xiaoyu’s smile was as same as that in her memory, which made her distressed the most.

Lin Mengya held Xiaoyu’s hand and sat on the warm bed. After letting out a sigh, she gently put Xiaoyu’s hand on her belly.

“There’s an unborn baby here who’s even younger than you. You’re going to be an uncle soon. So you have to take good care of yourself. Otherwise, what if the baby will lack your love when it was born?”

Xiaoyu was shocked, and then a touch of ecstasy appeared in his eyes.

He couldn’t help rubbing Lin Mengya’s belly, where the child of Lin Mengya he loved most was. For some reason, tears welled up in his eyes.

“Is there really a child inside?”

Lin Mengya nodded and covered his hand with hers.

“Yeah. I don’t know whether it is a boy or a girl, but I know one thing. When it was born, you must be the child’s favorite uncle, right?”

Lin Mengya didn’t know whether it was her illusion or not, but she always felt that the child in her belly had a special magic power.

If her mission was to destroy, destroy all fate, all bindings…

Then, the child in her belly was a hope for redemption and a new life.

“Yes! I will love the child better than anyone else. Sister, please stay here and don’t leave me again, okay?”

Xiaoyu squatted in front of Lin Mengya, and his eyes were full of pure eagerness.

Lin Mengya felt a burst of sadness, watching Xiaoyu rest his head on her knees and press his face against her belly as if he was feeling the unborn child.

“Okay, I’ll take you with me wherever I go this time. We don’t care about the throne. Xiaoyu, tell me what is going on and why your hair…”

Lin Mengya stroked Xiaoyu’s smooth hair, but the enchanting purple gave Lin Mengya an ominous feeling.

With a bitter smile on his lips, Xiaoyu told Lin Mengya everything honestly.

“Xiu and I got the royal venomous insect very smoothly in the Pool of Various Venomous Insects. With the thing you gave me, I quickly subdued the royal venomous insect. But I didn’t expect it to be so powerful. After I came back from the Pool of Various Venomously Insects, I noticed something unusual in my body. At first, only some strange patterns appeared on my skin. Later, I often fell into a trance. When I came to my senses, I found … a lot of dead bodies in front of me.”

Even now, Xiaoyu’s voice was still trembling.

Lin Mengya could understand Xiaoyu’s panic. Apart from feeling sorry for him, she was eager to know the reason.

“Later, my uncle discovered it when he treated me. I was too anxious to completely subdue the royal venomous insect. Therefore, it changed my temperament and made me more cold-blooded. Sister, I don’t want to become a ruthless monster. Sister, please help me.”

Looking at Xiaoyu’s helpless tears, Lin Mengya realized that it was a serious matter.

“Don’t worry. I will help you. Didn’t I tell you not to be so anxious to grasp the royal venomous insect? You just needed to take it out. As long as my blood is there, it can’t do anything to you.”

Xiaoyu shook his head with a bitter smile and said.

“Uncle Lie said that something unexpected would happen in Lieyun soon. If I don’t subdue the royal venomous insect as soon as possible, there would be trouble, so I…”

Lin Mengya cursed in her mind, “Wanyan Lie again? This guy can’t do anything right!”

“What about Xiu? I sent both of you into the Pool of Various Venomous Insects back then. I did not just mean to make you fall in love with each other. It happened that the venomous heart insect in Xiu’s body can suppress the side effects on you by the royal venomous insect.”

The royal venomous insect had existed for too long, so Lin Mengya was fully prepared in advance.

It would be perfect if Xiaoyu could completely subdue it, but once he forced his way to subdue it, the venomous heart insect could suppress those sequelae.

Xiaoyu said in a low voice after hesitating for a while.

“Xiu was taken away by Uncle Lie. He said, Xiu is blind and can’t be my legal wife, but we can’t lose the support of the Dongfang Family.”

Xiaoyu’s voice became lower and lower because he saw the dissatisfaction in Lin Mengya’s eyes.

Xiaoyu was afraid that Lin Mengya would get angry, so he hurriedly explained.

“But Uncle Lie won’t make things difficult for her. What’s more, the Dongfang Family has a good relationship with my father now. Xiu should be safe and sound.”

Xiaoyu stealthily looked at Lin Mengya. Lin Mengya felt distressed and angry.

“You brat!”

Lin Mengya poked Xiaoyu’s forehead gently. Seeing his pitiful look, Lin Mengya couldn’t be hard-hearted.

However, Xiaoyu’s behavior had gone beyond her bottom line. She could not allow him to hurt someone else just because he was her younger brother.

“Xiaoyu, you can dislike her or refuse her, but you can’t ruin a girl’s feelings. I know that it’s normal for them to take advantage of each other, but I hope you can stop making use of a girl’s feelings for you. It’s also my fault. I didn’t set a good example for you. I hope you can ask Wanyan Lie to hand Xiu over to me. If you really don’t like her, I also hope you can make it clear to her. I’ll never get involved in the matter between you and her.”

Previously, she wished to get the two of them together. She thought that as long as they got along with each other alone, they would have some affection gradually.

But now, it seemed that she had done something wrong.

“Uncle Lie is missing too. No one knows Xiu’s whereabouts now. Sister, did I do something wrong?”

Looking at Xiaoyu’s cautious look, Lin Mengya just sighed heavily in the end.

“Missing? What’s going on? When did he go missing?”

“The first time I had an attack, Uncle Lie disappeared with Xiu. My father knew where Xiu was hiding, but later he found that Uncle Lie didn’t take Xiu there. In order not to alert the Dongfang Family, we conceal the news and assign people to secretly look for her.”

In front of his sister, no matter how Xiaoyu’s appearance changed, he was still the most obedient boy Lin Mengya was most familiar with.

Frowning slightly, Lin Mengya had a hunch that the disappearance of Wanyan Lie and Xiu was not simple.

“Does anyone know that you’ve been affected by the royal venomous insect?”

Lin Mengya had seen what had happened just now. If she hadn’t been present, Xiaoyu would have been out of control again.

According to the reactions of Xiaoyu’s subordinates, it was obviously not the first time.

Xiaoyu smiled sadly, and the bitter smile on his lips became more and more obvious.

“My father says that we can’t let too many people know about it, otherwise it will be harmful to me. Therefore, except for our trusted subordinates, no one else knows the specific situation about me. In their opinion, it is just like my temperament changed greatly, and I became cold-blooded and bloodthirsty.”

Things were probably not as simple as Xiaoyu said. The heir of a country had become a cruel and bloodthirsty monster, which was almost a fatal blow to Xiaoyu’s reputation.
