CHAPTER 395: CHAPTER 395: THE VILLAIN IS A JEALOUS LOVER

Tang Zan took a deep breath, his eyes deep as he looked at her.

"Pei Shu’er, do you truly like me? Why is there no spark in your eyes?"

After saying this, Tang Zan was about to turn and leave.

Turning around, he was caught off guard when Pei Shu’er rose on her tiptoes and kissed him, mischief gleaming in her eyes, his face reflected in her captivating gaze.

After the kiss, Pei Shu’er pulled away, her eyes slowly opening.

She smiled and said, "You’re already my husband, and I have nothing to do with Yan Hengyin. Why are you inexplicably jealous?"

Tang Zan pressed Pei Shu’er down, some anger shown in his eyes.

"What angers me is that you trust him. You used to love him so passionately. Whereas your affection for me doesn’t reach that level."

Pei Shu’er finally looked up at Tang Zan.

"That was when I was young and foolish. After all the trials we’ve been through, being together is what matters most, isn’t it?"

Seeing Tang Zan still looking impossible to coax, Pei Shu’er sighed.

"Let’s both take a moment to calm down."

As a result, when she went out, Tang Zan pulled her back, this jealous man kissing her with a gloomy face.

The two parted, both out of breath.

"Pei Shu’er, have you forgotten that you’re still under the control of the Golden Silkworm Gu? How could I let you go out?"

If she went out, who knew how the Golden Silkworm Gu would control Pei Shu’er.

Pei Shu’er could only sit beside Tang Zan, taking out some books and then handing some to Tang Zan.

She wrote down the words "Gu", "Solution", "Antidote", "Golden Silkworm Gu" and then spoke to Tang Zan.

"When you see these words, fold the page, and I’ll look at it later."

The pages in front of them felt exquisite and new, different from the commonly used yellowed paper.

The texture on touching it was also very smooth, with no bumps.

As for the characters on it, they seemed incomplete but weren’t too difficult to guess the meaning of.

He felt a sense of wonder in his heart, knowing these books were related to Pei Shu’er’s secrets.

He looked up and saw Pei Shu’er watching him with a slightly anxious look, yet pretending not to care.

Tang Zan concealed the deep thoughts in his eyes.

"Pei Shu’er, did you forget I’m still angry?"

Pei Shu’er sighed with relief. Tang Zan wasn’t angry, more like he was worried she would continue to be concerned.

She opened her mouth, almost revealing her secret, but held it back.

Time was critical, and now, most of the time, she was controlled to the extent of being irrational and couldn’t read the book herself.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t need Tang Zan’s help.

Besides, the Golden Silkworm Gu was an ever-present risk in her body, better removed sooner rather than later.

But since Tang Zan didn’t bring it up, Pei Shu’er continued to play dumb with him.

"Don’t be mad, it’s all in the past."

She moved closer to Tang Zan’s cheek and gave it a gentle kiss.

Just as she was about to leave, Tang Zan held her again and kissed her thoroughly, then let her go.

"Consider that your payment."

Saying this, Tang Zan began to flip through the books with Pei Shu’er.

Initially, Tang Zan read slowly as he wasn’t familiar with the characters, but once he got used to them, he read much quicker.

After finishing a book, he placed it by Pei Shu’er’s side.

And Pei Shu’er didn’t delay, immediately checking the pages Tang Zan folded for her.

Not finding what she needed, she placed it in the pile of read books.

As she continued flipping, Pei Shu’er noticed the Child Gu of the Golden Silkworm Gu in her abdomen starting to stir.

Then, she said to Tang Zan, "Keep flipping; I’m going to the room next door."

Tang Zan wanted to follow with some concern, but when he reached outside the room, he found Pei Shu’er had already locked it from the inside.

A trace of disappointment flashed in Tang Zan’s eyes, but he said nothing more and just returned to the room to keep flipping through the books.

Meanwhile, Pei Shu’er entered a certain space.

As long as she was in the space, the Golden Silkworm Gu inside her would be ineffective.

But she couldn’t stay in that beautiful place forever.

She felt a bit angry as the Third Prince kept provoking her; did he really think she was easy to bully?

She glanced at the two people lying in the space, neither of whom had awakened, both surviving on nutrient fluids.

Continuing to flip through books in the space, she still couldn’t find related content.

At the same time, she found a few ancient books; their pages yellowed and old, Pei Shu’er dared not flip the pages roughly for fear of damaging them.

After reading a few pages, Pei Shu’er was speechless.

Not a word in these books made sense to her, as if they were ghostly scribbles.

Thinking of this, Pei Shu’er sighed.

But soon, her eyes lit up.

She suddenly thought that although she didn’t recognize them, perhaps Tang Zan might.

She had a strong premonition, feeling the solution to the Golden Silkworm Gu might be in these books.

She found all the ancient books in the space, which had been given for free while scavenging for old books.

She had emptied out many old book markets.

When she exited the space, she found the Gu worm had become still, perhaps the Third Prince had tired it out again.

She hurriedly grabbed dozens of ancient books from the space and handed them to Tang Zan.

Tang Zan looked at the fragile, old paper and glanced at Pei Shu’er.

Pei Shu’er cleared her throat, "See if there’s anything about the Gu technique on these ancient texts."

Tang Zan examined the cover and then read the words on it to Pei Shu’er.

When Tang Zan read a book’s cover, Pei Shu’er added Dayan’s words on it.

Just in case they needed it later.

They went through many until Tang Zan’s eyes lit up, picking up a book with an earthy yellow cover.

"This book is called Gu Technique."

Pei Shu’er was overjoyed. It would be so great if it also had information on the Golden Silkworm Gu.

Tang Zan searched for a long time, finding many types of Gu worms and solutions but none for the Golden Silkworm Gu.

Finally, Tang Zan said, "Perhaps the Golden Silkworm Gu is not called that in this Gu Technique."

Thus, he focused on the symptoms of the outbreak and the features of the Gu technique.

And then, he discovered a type of Gu that might just be the Golden Silkworm Gu.

Tang Zan said, "This Gu in this book is called Human Control Gu."

Pei Shu’er picked up a pen, looking at Tang Zan with some hope.

"My dear~ Read quickly; I’ll translate as you read."

Tang Zan read a sentence, and Pei Shu’er noted it down.

He was now reading the method to craft the Human Control Gu, which involved raising many poisonous silkworms together, and once the other silkworms were devoured, leaving one, its body golden, then the Gu was complete.

Then it talked about the precautions when implanting the Gu; the process took a long time, requiring the wrist to be cut open, the Gu worm inserted, and the host needed to have no resistance.

At last, it described the method to solve this Gu worm.
