The Lucky Bride Is Pretty And Delicate Chapter 478 Raw Food

478 Raw Food

The burning pain in his stomach disappeared, and he gradually felt full. Xu Lin threw away the remains of the chicken bone in his hand and cried as he looked at the blood on his hand. “What happened to me? What exactly is happening to me…”

He was not a barbarian or a lunatic. He had lived a luxurious life since he was young. Xu Lin was unable to accept what he was seeing.

However, he could not lie to himself. He could no longer eat the cooked food. The originally delicious food tasted like wax in his mouth. He could not taste anything, but raw food was delicious to him.

It was tender and fragrant. The feeling of being full spread to every part of his body. There was no longer a burning hunger in his stomach. Instead, he was satiated.

Was he still human?

Madam Xu’s eyes were red. She reached out and pulled Xu Lin into her arms, patting him gently. “Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid. I’m here.”

No matter what her son had become, she would not abandon him.

If he couldn’t eat cooked food, it didn’t matter if he ate raw food. They were rich and she could get anything that Xu Lin wanted to eat.

Xu Lin hugged Madam Xu and sobbed like an injured little beast.

Madam Xu was also crying. She didn’t know who threw the note in, but it saved her son’s life. No matter what the person who threw the note was up to, at least her son didn’t have to suffer anymore.

Madam Xu patted Xu Lin’s back gently. “You’re just sick. It’s fine.”

Xu Lin licked the blood at the corner of his mouth and looked at Madam Xu. “Mother, I’m afraid. I’m afraid that I’ll become a monster. I’m afraid that I’ll start to eat people. I…”

Madam Xu interrupted Xu Lin. “Nonsense. That won’t happen.”

How could he eat people? He was just scaring himself. There were so many livestock to choose from. There was no need to eat humans.

Her son was still human, not a monster. It was just that the food he preferred had changed.

Xu Lin lowered his eyes and hid the hunger and thirst in his eyes. He swallowed his saliva and did not tell Madam Xu about his terrifying thought of wanting to bite his mother’s throat open. She had already suffered enough for him and would definitely not be able to accept it.

Xu Lin was in pain. “Mother, dismiss all the servants in the mansion. There’s no need to have so many people. I won’t go out of the courtyard in the future. If you miss me, come and see me.”

When Madam Xu heard this, her heart almost broke. She choked and said, “Okay.”

Xu Lin pushed Madam Xu away. He pulled the blanket over himself and turned around. “Mother, go and rest. I’m sleepy.”

Tears streamed down Madam Xu’s face as she stood up. “Alright, Lin, rest well. Mother will come and see you tomorrow.”

Madam Xu packed up the food box before leaving. She called the butler over. The butler had served the Xu family for decades, so Madam Xu did not hide anything from him.

Like Madam Xu, the old butler’s tears fell like rain. He sobbed and promised Madam Xu. “Madam, don’t worry. I will see to it that this matter is kept a secret. Young Master is just sick. When we find a divine doctor, he will definitely be cured.”

Madam Xu was exhausted. “I won’t give up on Lin. You’re right. He’s just sick.”

After dismissing the servants, Madam Xu lay on the bed and sobbed hard. She was in so much pain that her heart was broken into countless pieces. Every part was bleeding.

Why did her son have to suffer so much? What did the Xu family do wrong? Because Xu Lin was weak, he never had any friends. He was raised like a delicate flower in a greenhouse, nourished meticulously. She knew that Xu Lin yearned for that kind of unrestrained life, riding fast horses and drinking strong liquor.

However, he would never be able to try these things.

In this big world, there must be someone who knew what to do to cure her son.

Madam Xu cried loudly and then slowly wiped away her tears. Her gaze became even more determined. Even if she had to spend her entire life, she was going to find a doctor and save her son.

No matter who did this, as long as she caught him, she would make him beg for death. Even if she died and turned into a vengeful spirit, she would pester and haunt that person.

The servants were dismissed. The ones left behind were all old and loyal. They swore to the heavens that they would never leak out a word.

Three times a day, animals were carefully butchered and sent over to Xu Lin. In the beginning, Xu Lin could still accept it, but within three days, he was furious. “You don’t have to cut it in the future. Just send the whole thing over.”

He liked to bite, tear, and devour the whole animal bit by bit. The sliced meat couldn’t give him that kind of satisfaction.

The servants could only do as he said.

Madam Xu was incomparably worried. Every aspect of Xu Lin was pointing to the fact that he was turning into a beast. His eyes were bloodshot when he bit and devoured the raw food.

Madam Xu couldn’t bear to watch him anymore. She knew very well that her son was changing in a terrifying direction. Before long, he would completely lose his humanity and become less and less human.

After wolfing down the food, pain flashed across Xu Lin’s eyes. The servants had already prepared a bathtub. He immediately washed up and changed into brand new clothes. The clothes were incense-stained, covering all the smell of blood.

The room was also cleaned up. After lighting the incense and opening the window, Xu Lin said energetically, “Mother, I want to read.”

Madam Xu nodded. “Alright, go to the study room to read.”

Xu Lin nodded and stretched his arms. “My clothes are a little small for me.”

Madam Xu looked at her son, who had clearly become stronger in just a few days. Her thoughts were complicated. It seemed that other than eating raw food, her son had not changed at all. It was good that he had become stronger. His face was also rosy and healthy, and his footsteps were steady.

However, she did not feel at ease at all. Instead, she was even more worried. She went forward to take a look and said, “It’s indeed a little small. I’ll get the tailor to make a few more sets for you.”

Xu Lin nodded and went to the study.

Madam Xu’s eyes were filled with worry. In order to find people to help her son, she had been on the go all day. The two state ministers in the palace were both from the Cloud Breaking Sect.

The Cloud Breaking Sect was a large sect. The two state ministers weren’t able to help, but perhaps if she went to the Cloud Breaking Sect, she could find some help.

Madam Xu thought for a moment. The 23rd of July was the 16th birthday of the Seventh Princess. Xia Qiluo was also at the age for marriage. She and the Crown Prince were both born of the Empress, so this year’s birthday would definitely be held grandly.

Xia Qiluo had been to the Cloud Breaking Sect to cultivate. Madam Xu wanted to ask her for help. With Xia Qiluo taking her to Cloud Breaking Sect, things would go much smoother. Therefore, Madam Xu put a lot of effort in choosing a birthday gift for her.

As Liu Sanniang walked General Black on the street, the dog gradually led her to Duke Xu’s Mansion. She rubbed General Black’s head. “Since we’re here, let’s go and see how things have developed.”
