When Guo Yiyang and Li Minxi emerged after washing up, Guo Xuyang had also slowly woken up.
Seeing their concerned eyes, Guo Xuyang said, "I'm sorry for making you worry. I couldn't stop myself."
Li Minxi slapped Guo Xuyang several times and then burst into tears again. "Do you know you almost killed me? You weren't yourself just now. No matter how much I called you, you didn't respond, only tormenting me."
"I'm truly sorry. I don't know why I became like this. In the future, if I go crazy again, tie me up."
"What's the use of tying you up? We can't even catch you. What's wrong with you?" Li Minxi asked, her voice hoarse.
"I don't know what's going on either. I just know that if I don't release it, my body feels like it's going to explode."
"When did this start?"
"About two or three days ago," Guo Xuyang said after thinking. "After I finished with Xia Li that day, I seemed to have a dream, and then I became like this."
"What dream?" everyone asked with great concern.
"I dreamed I went back to three months ago, to the time I was hit by a car. Then Xiao Yun and I had a child. In the end, I was hungry but couldn't find the elevator to the cafeteria."
"That wasn't a dream, you were sleepwalking. You stood in the living room hallway for a full half hour without moving," Xiao Yun said.
"Anyway, since then, I've become extremely sensitive to your bodies and often want to exercise with you. But every time we finish, I feel an unspeakable exhaustion, as if I'm possessed."
"Yangzi, could it be related to that place?" Xiao Yun asked, looking at Li Minxi and the others.
"What place? What are you talking about?" Li Minxi asked.
"This is a very strange thing to talk about. I always thought it was a dream, but it was real," Xiao Yun said. Seeing that Guo Xuyang didn't stop her, she continued. "Haven't you noticed that Lü Liang hasn't appeared?"
"Didn't Manager Jiang say Lü Liang was busy?" Li Minxi replied.
"Yes. He wasn't busy, he was imprisoned. He was imprisoned to save us. Originally, for the oil in Alabama, we followed Yangzi to Alabama. We entered a mysterious space there, filled with all sorts of monsters. Xiao Yu and I went in first, and Yangzi and Lü Liang went in to save us. Later, we came back, and Lü Liang remained inside forever," Xiao Yun said.
"Are you possessed? Are you telling a story? It sounds like something out of Arabian Nights," Li Minxi said, obviously not believing Xiao Yun.
"Believe it or not, it's up to you. I also thought I was dreaming, but the fact that Lü Liang isn't with us is real. So I suspect Yangzi is possessed by the monster from inside," Xiao Yun said confidently.
"What should we do if that's the case?" Iliana asked.
"I don't know. How about we take Yangzi to see a shamanistic medium?"
"If Lü Liang couldn't get out, how could that thing possess Yangzi? I think you're talking nonsense," Li Minxi still didn't believe it.
"Then what do you suggest? We can't let Yangzi continue like this. Not only are we suffering, but he is too, and there's no enjoyment to speak of. Could it be for procreation?" Xiao Yun suddenly slapped her thigh and said.
"Right. Yangzi, you said just now that you wanted to vent, right?" Li Minxi asked.
"Yes. Is there something wrong with that?" Guo Xuyang was puzzled.
"That's it, it must be. You're doing it with us for procreation, not for pleasure. You said that if you don't vent, you feel like you're going to explode, right? Then Xiao Yun is right. Something must have controlled you and wanted to procreate, making you feel uncomfortable and forcing you to do it. You only feel better after venting," Li Minxi's analysis was quite convincing.
Guo Xuyang even began to believe Li Minxi's analysis. However, he knew this was a side effect of his ability upgrade, but he couldn't tell these women about his ability.
"We are all around Yangzi now. What if he has an episode when we're not around? Will he just find any woman to vent with? This matter needs to be handled quickly. Otherwise, something will happen sooner or later," Li Minxi said.
"What should we do? Can a shamanistic medium help?" Guo Yiyang asked.
"Let's take Yangzi to try tomorrow," Xiao Yun said.
"I'm not going. What shamanistic medium? That's all a scam," Guo Xuyang said.
"You can't keep going like this. The sisters can't accompany you every day. What if you have an episode?"
"It's okay. I think I can still control myself."
"Seeing a shamanistic medium won't cause you any harm. Why aren't you taking any responsibility for yourself? Even if not for yourself, for Iliana, for the unborn child, you should go and see, shouldn't you?" Li Minxi was getting anxious.
"Alright. If the shamanistic medium finds something, don't blame me. You all should sleep early. It's not early anymore," Guo Xuyang finally agreed reluctantly.
Li Minxi and the others had been kept up half the night, and it was already past midnight. They all fell into a deep sleep.
In the morning, Guo Xuyang was woken up by Cheng Xiuping's phone call. "Brother Guo, we've arrived at your villa's entrance. When do you think would be a good time to start?"
"Okay, I'll be right out." Guo Xuyang hung up the phone and called Xiao Yun. "President Cheng and the others are here. Use your key to open the iron gate above the swimming pool. Send the raw stones to the west side."
"Okay, I'll go down now." Xiao Yun quickly put on her clothes and went down to open the iron gate of the swimming pool without even dressing up properly.
"President Cheng, so early." Guo Xuyang hurried to greet him.
"There's quite a lot of stuff. Otherwise, we probably won't finish in a day. Come on, I'll take you to see the west side." Cheng Xiuping led Guo Xuyang to the villa on the west side.
The villa's overall structure hadn't been greatly altered, only the swimming pool had been renovated. It was also connected to the villa below, allowing direct access from the villa to the area beneath the swimming pool. The upper part was designed with an automatic retractable cover, and the overall renovation style was similar to the King's Villa. However, the swimming pool wasn't covered to become a house; instead, it was dug deeper and converted into a two-story basement.
"Very good. President Cheng, thank you for your hard work. This design is very discreet. From the outside, one wouldn't be able to tell that raw stones are stored inside. It's very convenient for access and storage."
"At the time, I considered converting the entire swimming pool into a house like the King's Villa. But then I saw it wouldn't match the overall environment and might attract the attention of those with ulterior motives, so I didn't make major changes."
"This is very good. From now on, any further raw stones will be placed in the King's Villa, as this place attracts too much attention with people coming and going."
