Jiang Tan looked at Gu Junchuan helplessly, and could only stand obediently at the door, watching his fellow apprentices approach the little bear...

Thirteen took out a piece of talisman paper from his pocket first, recited a spell quickly, and with a "snap", he stuck the yellow talisman on the little bear's head.

Several people took a step back at the same time, and a black mist emanated from the little bear's body.

Chang Liu made a hand seal and pointed at the black fog in the void. The black fog seemed to be ignited by something. A burnt smell came from the air, and the black fog disappeared into the air little by little.

Ruomu reached out and took the little bear from the shelf. In his hands, the bear was just an ordinary doll.

Seeing this, Jiang Tan pulled Gu Junchuan closer.

There was nothing unusual about the little bear. It was just an ordinary, slightly old doll.

Jiang Tan took the doll from Ruomu, and observed it carefully again and again, while asking Gu Junchuan: "Is this thing given to you by your mother?"

"My mother had it specially made for me on my seventh birthday. My name is embroidered on the foot of the bear." The slender fingers took the bear from Jiang Tan's hand, turned the bear's left foot over, and slightly pulled apart the fur on the doll, revealing the letters embroidered in the same color thread as the doll.

Gu Junchuan stroked the letters above, his eyes lowered, not knowing what he was thinking.

Jiang Tan thought he was thinking about something sad again, so he took the little bear from him again.

"Let me see what this custom-made item from a rich family looks like..." The brisk words stopped halfway through. Jiang Tan frowned, lifted the little bear's left foot, and carefully observed the embroidered letters on it.

Chang Liu saw Jiang Tan's expression suddenly change, and walked forward, "What's wrong? Did you find anything?"

Jiang Tan lifted up the little bear's left foot and stretched the embroidered part in front of Chang Liu's eyes, "There's something wrong with this embroidery thread!"

Chang Liu frowned slightly, took the little bear from Jiang Tan's hand, looked at it carefully, and slowly traced the letters embroidered on it with his fingers.

"This embroidery thread is also under a curse. Although it has now been broken by Thirteen's talisman, but..." Chang Liu looked at Gu Junchuan with a meaningful look.

"Brother Changliu, please feel free to speak." Although Gu Junchuan was weak, he was extremely intelligent. Otherwise, he would not have been able to grow a subsidiary of M Group into its current size behind the scenes over the years and surpass Gu's!

Chang Liu glanced at Gu Junchuan, pointed at the embroidered letters and said, "This embroidery thread is not an ordinary embroidery thread. It has been cursed. You have been in poor health since childhood, and this is one of the reasons."

Gu Junchuan's heart sank, "Please tell me more details, Senior Brother Changliu."

Chang Liu sighed and handed the little bear to Gu Junchuan: "Your name is embroidered on the little bear's left foot. This means you are using your health to exchange for someone else's fortune. This is also the reason why you have been weak since childhood. This is also what you often say - borrowing your life to change your fortune!"

“Then should we check with the craftsman who made the teddy bear and find out where the embroidery thread came from?” Jiang Tan asked hesitantly. He wondered if he could still find out the whereabouts of the embroidery thread after so many years.

"No need to check." Gu Junchuan's cold voice seemed a little broken in this empty room. "This was embroidered by my mother herself!"

Now everyone was silent. "Maybe your mother doesn't know that there is something wrong with the embroidery thread?" Jiang Tan held Gu Junchuan's hand and racked her brains, trying to think of words to comfort him. Unfortunately, she was really short of words in this regard and didn't know how to comfort him!

"Yes, what Junior Sister said is true. Most people don't know this kind of spell for this kind of embroidery thread. Mrs. Gu may have been deceived." Ruomu smiled and walked forward, patting Gu Junchuan on the shoulder. "Don't think too much. Today's incident can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. Don't you feel that your body has become much more relaxed?"

After he said this, everyone reacted. Jiang Tan even grabbed Gu Junchuan's wrist, placed it on his vitals, and carefully felt the beating of his pulse.

Gu Junchuan lowered his head slightly, looking at the person in front of him who was taking his pulse seriously, and the long-lost feeling of hunger suddenly came up.

He slightly struggled to free himself from Jiang Tan's fingers, and held Jiang Tan's small hand with his backhand, "Brother Ruomu is right, I do feel much better now. I'm hungry now, come with me to eat something!"

After saying that, he nodded slightly to the others and pulled Jiang Tan out of the warehouse.

Looking at the backs of the two people leaving together, Ruomu lazily raised his arm, leaned on Changliu's shoulder, and said with a smile: "This person is too realistic. He didn't even think about taking us to eat something. We've been busy all night and we're hungry too!"

"Second Brother, I'm hungry too!" Thirteen, who was still growing, quickly raised his hand. The little food he had eaten in the evening had long been digested.

Chang Liu looked at the two people playing funny and smiled: "I'll make noodles for you two when we get back later."

Thirteen wailed and protested loudly, "Don't worry, Senior Brother. There are so many delicious foods down the mountain. You really don't need to cook for us." After that, he quickly took out his phone and skillfully opened the food delivery app. He ordered several times, then raised his head and said to the two of them anxiously:

"Big Brother, Second Brother, let's go back quickly, otherwise the takeaway may arrive before us!" After saying that, he ran out quickly as if his butt was on fire.

Ruomu laughed and patted Changliu on the shoulder: "Big Brother, look at your skills. How scared did you make our little Thirteen?"

Chang Liu glanced at Ruo Mu who was smiling brightly, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "On the mountain, I saw that you guys were eating very happily. Don't worry, Xiao Shisan ordered takeout, and he probably didn't bring your portion. As the eldest brother, I must not let the younger brother starve, so I'll leave the noodles for you."

Ruomu was stunned, and took a look at Changliu who was smiling maliciously, and quickly took his hand off Changliu's shoulder, and said with a fake smile: "I won't bother you, brother. I can solve the meal by myself."

After saying that, he walked out quickly. Not far away, he heard Thirteen's voice calling out, "Stinky Thirteen, did you bring my share of midnight snack?"

Even late at night, Gu Junchuan could still find a restaurant that was still open, but perhaps because it was too late, the entire restaurant was empty.

Jiang Tan looked around the restaurant curiously. Looking at the decorations, she knew that the price must be high. She moved her chair next to Gu Junchuan and asked in a low voice:

“Is this restaurant empty because it’s too expensive? Is it going to close down?”

Looking at Jiang Tan's cute appearance, Gu Junchuan couldn't help it. He raised his hand, touched her head, lowered his head slightly, and spoke in a low voice, imitating her.

"This restaurant is owned by the M Group. The financial statements for the past two years have been pretty good. It shouldn't go bankrupt!"
