My Wife is a Goddess: 99 Secret Kisses Chapter 132 A REWARD PART 20

Someone grabbed her shoulder and she jumped in nervousness. She turned around and saw Ming Yu. She sighed in relief and said, "Oh, it's only you."

Ming Yu slightly smiled. "You get nervous too easily.

"What do you want me to do? It's the boss's wife!" She wiped her sweats again.

Ming Yu agreed with her. "That's true. Be careful next time. It's almost lunchtime. Shall we go to a restaurant?"

"Sounds good. I need some rest too."

"Let's go together."

"Wait, let me put my stuff in my office." They headed to her office room.

------------

Xue Lin looked at the dishes on the bed table and she almost drooled. Ge Chen took a bowl of fish soup, blew the warm soup and fed her gently. Since she could not use her hands, she obediently sat there and drank the soup.

Xue Lin suddenly asked, "How long was I out?"

Ge Chen replied, "Seven days."

"That long!" Xue Lin was stunned. No wonder her stomach was crying for delicious food!

Ge Chen explained, "You lost too much blood and you were dead tired."

Xue Lin nodded in understanding. "That's true. How did you find me? My car and cellphone were in the city. Even if you tracked them, you couldn't have found me."

Ge Chen hesitated before saying, "…I placed a nano tracker on your wrist.w.a.tch." He was afraid that she would get mad at him for secretly tracking her all this time.

Xue Lin said, "Thank goodness you did or I would turn into ashes by now!"

"...Are you not mad?" Ge Chen carefully asked.

"You saved my life. Why on earth I would get angry?" Xue Lin tilted her head in confusion.

Ge Chen was relieved by her words. "Thank you. I was worried."

Xue Lin shook her head. "Please don't. But, I would appreciate it if you don't do this anymore. You see, there are things you cannot fight against no matter how powerful you are. I don't want you to put yourself at risk when you try to save me. I will never find peace if something happens to you because of me."

Ge Chen frowned slightly. "And, you think I will find peace if something were to happen to you under my watch? I can't do that."

"I know, it's hard. I told you what I felt. You are not obliged to listen to me." She indirectly gave him permission to track her. She didn't force him and didn't want to bind him with her.

"Thank you, my wife. Do you remember what happened?"

"Yes, but I don't remember what happened after I fainted. There was fire everywhere. So I want to know what the rescue team or police found out."

"Why don't I tell you after you finish eating? It's kind of a sickening story." He was sure that she would vomit after hearing the details.

"Don't worry. My appet.i.te won't go away because of some sickening stories." Xue Lin a.s.sured him.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he reported her, "They found forty-one heads and their body parts were scattered everywhere."

Xue Lin covered her mouth. She tried not to feel nausea or the delicious food would go to waste. Just thinking about the food in front of her, she pushed back her disgust. After Ge Chen let her drink water, she said, "Including Puja and me, it should be around forty-two. I guess Puja is dead."

"She is. We found her head as well."

Xue Lin felt bad for Puja. She liked to show off but she was never a bad person. It was the demon inside her that was the bad person. She wished she could somehow save her but it was beyond her control. She was dead long ago. Puja died the moment the demon took over her body. "I see. What about the house? Did you find any clue there as to who were those people?"

"No, the house was destroyed. The thing that shocked everyone was that the destruction couldn't have been done by one person. It would take at least an army of hundreds to make the whole thing turn into dust." Ge Chen carefully looked at her and asked, "That's why the investigation team needed your report. Do you remember anything before you fainted?"

"Nothing. The last thing I heard was them chanting some mantra and there was a fire. I felt my body burn by the touch of fire… you will break the spoon." She was looking at the spoon he was holding.

"Sorry." In anger, Ge Chen was gripping the spoon so tightly that it almost broke.

"It's okay. What else did the investigators find?"

Ge Chen described, "Though there was no clue in the mountains, they checked that woman's house and the bar. She was a devil worshiper. They got all the related doc.u.ments. Your cla.s.smate Lin Tingfeng and her husband both died in her hands. She did some kind of ritual. All the members of devil worshipers were present in the mountains. So, I guess they all died. They were trying to sacrifice you, weren't they?" He gritted his teeth.

"Calm down, I'm still alive. Yes, you are right. They wanted to sacrifice my soul. If they succeeded, my soul would have been consumed by the devil and I could have never ventured to heaven or h.e.l.l." She jokingly said.

Ge Chen looked at her for a while and commented, "You seem to know a lot about this stuff."

Xue Lin looked at him in the eyes and "Do you doubt me?"

"No." Ge Chen replied without hesitation.

Xue Lin smiled softly. She didn't know why she felt so happy that he didn't doubt her. She also commented, "You also know a lot about rituals, don't you?"

Ge Chen didn't deny it. "I do. My maternal grandmother's family has a spiritual connection with four G.o.ds."

"Oh! I remember. I was lectured during the preparation of the wedding." Xue Lin recalled. "I want to know more about them. May I go to their main house?"
