Stop pretending, the fake heiress is actually a master of metaphysics.

"Baby, baby, where are you? Don't scare Mommy!"

The woman rushed to the window, shouting anxiously.

However, the downstairs area was empty, with no trace of her daughter.

There was a note on the desk next to me that read: "Mom, I'm going to pursue my own happiness."

The woman collapsed to the ground, her face deathly pale; she had completely broken down.

Shen Nian said, "Don't cry yet. Give me your daughter's birth date and time, and I can find out where she is."

As if grasping at a last straw, the woman hurriedly revealed her daughter's birth date and time.

Shen Nian did some quick calculations and said, "To the west of your house, there's an unfinished building. Your daughter and that beggar are temporarily staying there."

The woman immediately called her husband and rushed downstairs.

[My God, an unfinished building, is that even a place for people to live?]

[This guy's love-struck mind is unbelievable! He's got a luxurious villa at home, but he's going to live in an unfinished building?]

I heard that the unfinished building still has a lot of exposed steel bars and glass fragments, and there's no water or electricity, so it's completely uninhabitable.

[A rich young lady falls in love with an old beggar; this world has simply gone mad.]

The woman got into the car and drove to the unfinished building that Shen Nian had mentioned.

At the foot of the unfinished building, they met up with the girl's father, who had also rushed over, and the two began searching for their daughter floor by floor.

They eventually found their daughter sleeping on a thin bamboo mat in a cement room on the fourth floor.

On the ground to the side were several curved bottles and jars of seasoning, as well as a box of instant noodle residue.

The woman immediately rushed over and woke her daughter, saying, "Baby, baby, wake up, Mommy's here to take you home."

The commotion was quite loud, and an old man with gray hair and a hunched back peeked in from the doorway. When he saw the two of them coming, he immediately cursed.

The woman pointed at the old beggar and yelled, "You're trafficking women! I'm calling the police and they'll arrest you right now!!"

Her precious daughter has been pampered since she was a child, how could she sleep in a place like this?

A greedy glint shone in the old beggar's cloudy eyes: "Go ahead and report it. Humph, it was your daughter who wanted to come with me. What kind of abduction is this?"

The old beggar calmly replied, "Your daughter has already agreed to marry us, so she's mine now! A married daughter is like water spilled from a cup; it's not your place to tell her what to do!"

"If you ask me, it's because you've spoiled her too much. I usually just eat a few steamed buns to get by, but she insists on eating instant noodles. Since she's with me, of course she has to eat steamed buns with me."

"If you don't want your daughter to continue suffering, then be sensible and give me your house, car, and money. I will then naturally provide your daughter with a better life!"

The woman was furious. She slapped the old beggar across the face, still feeling unsatisfied, and yelled, "She's my own daughter, I love her myself! Our house and car belong to her, what's it to you?"

This madwoman's logic is ridiculous. If she wants to be good to her daughter, she can just give the money to her daughter directly. Why give it to a complete stranger and then have that man be good to her daughter?

Her words resonated with many viewers in the live chat.

"Rich people are different; my mom should hear that."

Believe it or not, many girls have a hidden husband in their parents' hearts from childhood to adulthood. Whatever their daughter wants, in their parents' minds, there's always her husband who will give it to her.

[Don't you even consider that you treat your own daughter badly? Why should a complete stranger give her what you haven't given her?]

[Some parents treat their sons-in-law like their own sons, giving the best things to their daughters and not supporting them, but instead supporting their sons-in-law, letting a man with no blood relation inherit their family business. They deserve to have their inheritance squandered!]

[But what's wrong with this daughter? Her aunt and uncle seem to love her so much, why does she insist on going with a beggar?]

Shen Nian said calmly, "Your daughter does indeed have a problem."

The camera focused on the girl who was still lying on the ground, fast asleep.

"If I'm not mistaken, she should be under the influence of the Red Thread Gu."

The woman was startled: "...What, Gu? The Gu worms from Miao territory in novels? Do these things really exist?"

Shen Nian said calmly, "The world is vast and full of wonders."

"Red Thread Gu, as the name suggests, can make the person who is infected with the Gu become infatuated with the person who cast the Gu, and want to be with the person like a madman, hence the name Red Thread Gu."

A non-existent red thread is drawn together by the power of Gu worms.

If a minor ghost like a Kumanthong can exist, then a Gu worm, which doesn't have a very significant effect, could naturally also exist.

"Then... Master, can this Gu worm be cured?"

The woman asked anxiously.

Hearing Shen Nian's voice, the old beggar beside him angrily retorted, "You vile woman, what nonsense are you spouting? What 'Gu worm' nonsense? Are you crazy? What rubbish are you talking about? Xiaoyue and I are truly in love!"

Shen Nian sneered: "If she weren't a Gu worm, why would she be interested in you? Is it because you're poor, old, or because you don't brush your teeth or shower?"

The old beggar blushed with anger.

He was still cursing when Shen Nian said, "Hold him down. I'll tell you how to get rid of him."

The girl's father rushed forward and pinned the old beggar down.

The girl's father was, after all, a man in his prime, and subduing a beggar in his seventies or eighties was quite easy for him.

Shen Nian looked closely and said, "Take the things out of his chest pocket."

The man did as instructed, taking out a lock of hair tied with a red string and a dark yellowish-brown talisman from his pocket.

Shen Nian said, "Just burn it."

The woman quickly took a lighter from the man's pocket and, while restraining the old beggar, used the lighter to burn the lock of hair along with the talisman.

The old beggar's eyes widened in horror as he reached out to snatch it, repeatedly shouting, "No!! No!!!! Stop!!!"

The girl's father kicked him into a corner.

As the talisman burned away little by little, the girl, who had been unconscious, suddenly opened her eyes.

"Dad, Mom, what happened to me? How did I get here?"

The old beggar, sprawled on the ground, rushed over and looked at the girl: "Xiaoyue, Xiaoyue, it's me! Do you remember me? I'm the man you love most."

The girl's eyes widened, and she turned away to gag.

"Get away! Don't come near my daughter!"

The girl was vomiting so badly that tears were almost streaming down her face. The woman asked, "Master, Master, what's wrong with my daughter?"

Shen Nian said, "She's spitting out the Gu worms."

As soon as she finished speaking, the girl vomited a pool of dark vomit.

A small, jet-black insect with a single, glaring red line around its waist crawled out of the vomit, made its way to the old beggar, and burrowed directly into the sole of his bare foot.

This sight made the girl turn her head and vomit again.
