571 The Secret About the Past 189 (1/2)

Tuoba Gucheng's heart was racing nervously. Why couldn't she be awakened if she was just sleeping?

She was that deeply asleep?

But since the doctor had already said that, he could only put her on the sofa and let her be. She was supposed to be on duty to protect him, but now it was the opposite…

He stood there, looking down at her as she slept. Perhaps it was because of something that they had done, something that should not have happened between them, his attitude toward her had improved drastically. Also, as he looked at her now, she did not seem that ugly, after all.

Or could it be that his eyesight was declining?

Throughout the night, he occasionally woke up to check on her and realized she was sleeping all well and fine.

He'd thought that she would wake up the following day.

However, the reality was that she didn't.

Even the doctor did not know what was going on.

Tuoba Gucheng searched online and got a wide variety of answers.

There were even some people who just slept on for many years like that.

Just looking at such answers made his jaw drop in horror.

For the whole day, he was thinking of this strange incident.

Before he slept on the night of the 16th of July, he was still wondering if this woman would actually not wake up for many years.

Yet, in the middle of the night, he felt something licking his face and two arms wrapping around him tightly. Opening his eyes, he received a near-death shock.

He turned on the lights. Seeing An Xiaoning right next to him, he was mortified.

”Why… did you climb onto my bed? Are you tired of living? Get down now!”

”Woof woof woof…”

Tuoba Gucheng reached out and pressed her face. ”Are you a dog? You still dare to bark at me? Get down now!”

”Woof woof woof woof…”

All the thoughts in his mind crumbled as he immediately dragged her to the sofa. ”Mu Ning, since you're awake, stop acting crazy. Do your guard duty properly.”

He watched as she sat on the sofa, her sparkling eyes staring right at him, emitting an innocent gaze.

”Say something.”

”…”

Tuoba Gucheng was going mad. He went closer to her. ”Have you gone dumb from sleeping?”

”Woof woof… ow…”

Seeing her act in an abnormal way, Tuoba Gucheng hurriedly put on his clothes and went to consult a witch.

The witch came over with him and immediately diagnosed, ”She's been possessed by the spirit of a yellow Labrador.”

”A yellow Labrador?”

Tuoba Gucheng instantly thought of the favorite dog he had a few years ago. It was exactly a yellow Labrador, but it died of an illness eventually.

He suddenly felt the weight of the problem he was facing.

”Is there a way to make her go back to normal?”

The witch responded, ”We usually have to wait 'til October to do a ritual to scare the spirit away. Her body is too weak at the moment, so even a dog can possess her.”

”October is too far away, is there a faster method?”

”No, unless the dog is willing to get out of her body before that.”

This was really an eye-opener for Tuoba Gucheng. If he had not witnessed it himself, he would never have believed that such things could actually happen in this world.

”Then, how can we make it leave by itself?”

”Satisfy its wishes. Maybe if you satisfy its wishes, it will leave without regrets.”

Tuoba Gucheng especially instructed the witch, ”You mustn't let this get out.”

”Don't worry, Your Highness, I know what to do.”

”Alright, you may go.”

Tuoba Gucheng sent the witch out of the door.

”Your Highness, what is a witch doing here?” Xiao Chi inquired.
