Seeing this, Zeng Xiaofan quickly helped the elderly couple to their feet. Lin Yuhan looked at them with a face full of utter incomprehension.
"Dad! Mom!"
"What... what are you doing?"
"He stripped off all my clothes and violated me, so why are you thanking him instead?"
Zeng Xiaofan smiled awkwardly and turned to look at the disheveled Lin Yuhan. Startled, Lin Yuhan instinctively tightened her body once again.
"You two should explain it to her first. I'll step outside for a moment."
"She's fine now and can tidy herself up and change into some clothes. The most important thing right now is to tie up this little hen securely and take good care of it."
"The person who cast the spell probably has something containing Yuhan's flesh and blood, such as hair or blood, so there's still a possibility that they might try to harm Yuhan again."
"We must find a way to track that person down to eliminate future trouble. Therefore, until that person is found, this chicken must, absolutely must, be taken good care of."
"Yes, yes, yes!" Lin Ade and his wife nodded like pounding garlic. Witnessing this, Lin Yuhan grew even more astonished.
After giving his instructions, Zeng Xiaofan walked straight out of the room to give Lin Yuhan space to change. Lin Ade tactfully followed him outside as well.
Meanwhile, Lin Dongmei and Lin Yudong stayed behind in the room to recount the entire sequence of events to Lin Yuhan in detail.
When Zeng Xiaofan re-entered the room, Lin Yuhan had already changed into tight-fitting jeans and a white shirt.
Her messy hair was tied up into a top knot, and her fair, delicate face looked utterly pitiful and touching.
The curves of her figure, outlined by those tight jeans, were entirely of supermodel caliber.
Although her breasts were not large, she possessed a special elegance in her attire,
reminiscent of the unique intellectual beauty belonging exclusively to a university dance instructor.
At first glance, she even bore a resemblance to the mute girl played by Huang Shengyi in the movie *Kung Fu*—
pure, ethereal, beautiful, and possessing a blend of innocence and allure. With her red lips slightly parted, she inspired an almost irresistible urge to pull her into an embrace and kiss her deeply.
Completely free of her affliction and dressed properly, the current Lin Yuhan was an entirely different person from the unhinged state she had been in earlier.
The dramatic contrast between her former and current states left Zeng Xiaofan momentarily dazed.
Feeling somewhat embarrassed by Zeng Xiaofan's burning gaze, Lin Yuhan shyly lowered her head slightly and said in a sweet, soft voice:
"I'm sorry... Master Xiaofan... I misunderstood you just now..."
"My sister told me everything. Thank you for saving my life!"
Lin Yuhan accompanied her words with a deep bow toward Zeng Xiaofan. Zeng Xiaofan smiled calmly:
"You're being far too polite... And please don't call me Master Xiaofan; it makes me sound like an old man."
"Pfft~" Lin Yuhan giggled playfully, "Then... then what should I call you?"
Observing their reserved and shy demeanor, Lin Yudong raised an eyebrow as a thought seemed to cross her mind, and she immediately chimed in:
"I'm in my thirties, and my younger sister is ten years younger than me, in her twenties."
"If I remember correctly, Xiaofan, you're also in your twenties, right? You should be around the same age as my sister, maybe she's just a year or two older than you."
"You two can just address each other by your names! By the way, Xiaofan, are you still single?"
"I heard that your ex-girlfriend, Zhou Tingting, dumped you right after you lost your sight, didn't she?"
"You still don't have an official girlfriend to this day, do you?"
Zeng Xiaofan smiled awkwardly. "Aunt Yudong, why are you suddenly bringing all this up?"
"Auntie is just asking you, aren't you?"
"Are you still single or not?"
Before Zeng Xiaofan could reply, Lin Yudong smirked mischievously and said:
"Yuhan is single, too~"
"And she's been single since birth..."
Upon hearing this, both Zeng Xiaofan and Lin Yuhan blushed deeply.
Wasn't Lin Yudong's intention to play matchmaker painfully obvious?
Feeling a sudden wave of headache, Zeng Xiaofan quickly brushed it off with a laugh:
"Hahaha... Aunt Yudong, let's not talk about that for now. We should quickly ask Yuhan about that Soul Cleansing Society thing!"
"Finding the mastermind behind the scenes is the real priority. Yuhan has only escaped danger temporarily; the hidden threat hasn't been completely resolved yet."
"Mm-hmm... That's true..." Hearing this, Lin Yudong's expression turned serious as well:
"Yuhan, did you... did you encounter something when you attended that Soul Cleansing Society before?"
As soon as Lin Yuhan heard the words "Soul Cleansing Society," her pretty face turned completely crimson. She instinctively lowered her head, wearing an expression of intense shame and mortification.
"Yuhan, whatever happened to you, tell me directly. This is crucial!"
"You wouldn't want to fall victim to the Curse of Voodoo again, turning into a mindless nymphomaniac who strips off her pants the moment she sees someone, would you?"
At these words, Lin Yuhan's slender body shuddered violently. Realizing this was no time for coyness, she bit her lip and said with profound shame:
"A while ago, an old classmate of mine said she wanted to introduce a boyfriend to me, claiming he was some wealthy young master from the county..."
"I didn't want to go at first, but my classmate pestered me relentlessly, insisting that I go and meet him."
"I figured there was no harm in just meeting someone to make a friend; if I didn't like him, I simply wouldn't keep in touch afterward. But as soon as we met, he insisted on taking me to some Soul Cleansing Society."
"He claimed it was a very noble event for cleansing the soul and helping people rediscover themselves and the world."
"I didn't want to go, but I couldn't resist his persistence, so I went with him..."
"When we got to the venue, they started a lecture. The more I listened, the stranger it felt. Later... later, the lecturer actually made a huge group of us men and women strip off our clothes on the spot..."
"He said something about the body merely being a stinky skin-bag, and told us to re-examine our bodies, touch each other's bodies, and experience each other's bodies..."
"The... the scene was simply too depraved. I couldn't stand it anymore and turned to run, but they caught me, dragged me into a small dark room, and beat me up."
"Then a man did... did something to my... to my..."
At this point, Lin Yuhan couldn't help but raise her head to steal a glance at Zeng Xiaofan. Her face burned so hotly it seemed about to drip blood, and she stammered, unable to force the words out.
Unable to contain his anxiety any longer, Lin Father frowned and demanded:
"Did what to your what? What happened?"
"Out with it! Master Zeng is right here, what are you afraid of!"
"You have to explain it clearly to him so he can figure out a way to help you!"
Biting her lip even harder, Lin Yuhan still found herself unable to speak. She could only cast a pleading look at her elder sister, Lin Yudong.
Knowing how thin-skinned her younger sister was, Lin Yudong offered a reassuring smile and said:
"It's fine. Tell your sister first, and sister will say it for you..."
With that, Lin Yudong leaned in close, and Lin Yuhan pressed her lips to her sister's ear, whispering a few words.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yudong froze slightly, her face flushing red, though anger was the dominant emotion in her expression!
"That... that man shaved off Yuhan's leg hair.... ahem.... shaved off her leg hair, and took it away..."
