Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 369: Chapter 369 Heavenly Master 76

Who knew that before Gong Lanfang could lead Shuangshuang into the room, her brother Gong Shixuan intercepted them halfway!

Gong Shixuan had good intentions; as a university professor, he was naturally more suitable to tutor a high school student than Gong Lanfang. To repay Shuangshuang for helping his dear little sister, Gong Shixuan decided to personally guide Shuangshuang, determined to significantly boost her grades.

Gong Lanfang could only watch anxiously as her brother, with a calm-faced Shuangshuang, went to the study. She paced around nervously, wishing she could charge into the study, kick her bothersome brother aside, and question Shuangshuang thoroughly about whether Gong Zichen was in any trouble!

Unaware of Gong Lanfang’s anxiety, Gong Shixuan sat properly behind the desk, issuing questions while having Shuangshuang answer them!

Perhaps because Gong Shixuan adopted a teacher’s attitude toward a student, Shuangshuang, rare to see, got momentarily stuck, but instinctively took on the spirit of aiming for a scholarship, answering several consecutive questions beautifully and clearly—precise and clean! Drawing inferences!

Then Shuangshuang, seeing Gong Shixuan’s face full of questioning marks almost forming into a tangible state, suddenly realized, right! She wasn’t dealing with her school’s teacher; she was pretending to be a student in need of tutoring!

But what now? She had already exposed the fact that she had good grades! What to do now? Shuangshuang appeared calm on the surface, but internally she was as anxious as a cat on a hot tin roof!

At this moment, Shuangshuang saw a chemistry book on the bookshelf behind Gong Shixuan! Remembering that Gong Lanfang used to be in charge of teaching chemistry, Shuangshuang immediately had a brainwave and said to Gong Shixuan, ”Actually, the subject I need tutoring in is chemistry!”

Seeing the confusion on Gong Shixuan’s face dissipate as he began earnestly tutoring her in chemistry, Shuangshuang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seems pretending to have bad grades isn’t that easy; it really tests one’s acting skills!

By the time Gong Shixuan finished tutoring, it was already midnight. Gong Shixuan was very pleased with Shuangshuang’s dedication and understanding speed in her studies, feeling that Shuangshuang just hadn’t found the right study direction before. When ending the lesson, he even helped Shuangshuang summarize many study methods.

As soon as Shuangshuang left the study, she was immediately pulled into her room by the anxiously waiting Gong Lanfang, who then lowered her voice and asked, ”I finally got you out here! How’s my nephew? Did he encounter anything unclean?”

Shuangshuang shook her head, her voice cool, ”I have investigated, and his soul body shows no abnormalities, nor is there any Yin Qi lingering around him. It’s unlikely he’s suddenly changed his preferences because of ghostly influences.”

”Ah!” Gong Lanfang uttered a disappointed sound, sitting down somewhat dejectedly on a stool beside Shuangshuang, sighing, ”So there really wasn’t any issue? Could it actually be that Zichen himself had a change of heart?”

Shuangshuang also sat opposite Gong Lanfang and said blandly, ”Not necessarily. Even though he’s not harmed by ghosts, it doesn’t mean there’s no problem. Not all unusual methods are caused by ghosts and demons. Humans can achieve it, sometimes not even requiring ghostly means. There are countless ways to make someone change their heart or fall for you! None of which need ghostly powers! However, simply observing won’t reveal this; I need to thoroughly examine Gong Zichen’s body to determine what’s really happening.”

Actually, the main issue is that though Shuangshuang’s Dharma Eye is powerful, it operates on the soul. While the Dharma Eye can see through all illusions and uncover any ghosts, gods, or demons, if it’s not an issue of the soul body, the Dharma Eye isn’t very useful.

Gong Lanfang’s emotions rose and fell several times because of Shuangshuang’s words, and now she sighed somewhat unhappily, ”I really don’t know what’s wrong with this child, but I absolutely don’t believe someone like Zichen would suddenly do such a thing. I’ll trouble you to find an opportunity to take another look in the coming days.”

Shuangshuang nodded lightly. She naturally needed to find an opportunity for a closer check, but even though she had this in mind, she couldn’t find a chance for several days to check Gong Zichen’s physical condition mainly because Gong Shixuan was too enthusiastic, dragging Shuangshuang into tutoring every day.

Shuangshuang was also quite pained by this, having to pretend to humbly learn solutions to questions she already knew, acting as if finding them hard and praising the teacher for enlightening explanations with a sense of dramatic irony!

Fortunately, after three days, perhaps thanks to Shuangshuang’s excellent performance—not slacking off on classes and listening earnestly, completing all assignments swiftly—Gong Shixuan decided to give Shuangshuang a break. Given she’s a self-disciplined student, there should be a balance between study and relaxation!

Honestly, three straight days immersed in a sea of problems was taxing for Shuangshuang. If it were unfamiliar knowledge, it would be fine, but repeatedly studying well-known points felt less comfortable.

To quickly escape this daily class situation and find an opportunity to explore Gong Zichen’s condition, Shuangshuang planned for a straightforward approach! No more beating around the bush!

Because Shuangshuang was given a break and with an invitation from old friends, Gong Shixuan accepted and went out. Qi Huiyin was busy with a tutoring class and had no time to be at home.

Now, only Shuangshuang and Gong Lanfang were home, and coincidentally, the usually absent Gong Zichen didn’t go out that day either! The timing was perfect.

Gong Zichen had come home late last night and slept late in the morning, getting up close to noon. He yawned as he came out, intending to check the kitchen for something to eat, and casually greeted his Aunt Gong Lanfang at the kitchen door.

As Gong Zichen greeted Gong Lanfang, Shuangshuang silently approached from behind, and with a swift hand chop, Gong Zichen’s body went limp, and he slid down the floor silently, caught in time by Shuangshuang.

After catching him, Shuangshuang effortlessly supported Gong Zichen’s arm and laid him on the sofa.

Gong Lanfang immediately came over, nervously watching as Shuangshuang used her fingers to check the pulse of the pale-faced Gong Zichen lying on the bed!

Of course, Shuangshuang wasn’t skilled in medicine. A person’s pulse can reveal many things; any issues within the body can be found in the pulse. Shuangshuang investigated whether Gong Zichen’s body showed any non-disease-related abnormalities.

After checking for a while, Shuangshuang couldn’t help but furrow her brow. She reached to unbutton Gong Zichen’s clothes, revealing a large area of pale chest, then conjured a strand of Mana condensed at her fingertip, lightly tapping Gong Zichen’s heart area, a small bright spot fell onto Gong Zichen’s chest along with Shuangshuang’s action.
