Love letters are not allowed in the exorcism notebook!-Chapter 780 - 27 Eldest Miss Li Reinstalls the System

Wang Yunxiao has a wish, which is to sleep inside this fluffy big tail.

Unfortunately, his wish is left unfulfilled as he is kicked out by Li Mumu, one foot after another.

But tonight can’t be said to be without gains; at least he has confirmed that there’s a thirty percent chance the white stoat... bah! The big snow ferret he encountered at the auction that day was transformed by Li Mumu.

Why only thirty percent, you ask... Who knows if all those practicing Demon Magic Gate can turn into snow ferrets? With no other cases to refer to, Wang Yunxiao can’t just make wild guesses.

The main thing is he knows next to nothing about the Longevity Sect, nor does he have any idea when Li Mumu started to mingle with those demonesses.

After all, Eldest Miss Li studies at school every day, diligently and positively.

Research requires rigor, and so does dealing with women.

You can’t think with your little head instead of your big head. Rushing at every sight of a woman often ends badly.

Only teenagers stepping into adolescence would believe "love is blind".

Mature single middle-aged women, which of them wouldn’t consider a prospective spouse’s car, house, and annual salary?

Li Mumu is that type of tough nut to crack. Wang Yunxiao feels that every time he has an in-depth conversation with her at close range, it drains a significant amount of his brain cells.

With other girls, it just takes a few words, and he has them figured out.

Li Mumu can have a whole night of face-to-face comedic dialogue with him.

You strike and I parry, no decline in wit.

What’s with your insistence on being so strong-willed as a woman? Do you feel there is more money in playing the straight man, or are you cultivating your back bumper to perfection?

Guessing her identity isn’t hard, but Wang Yunxiao feels that unless he throws the evidence in her face, she’ll never admit it.

Next time, he’ll find the opportunity to corner her in a dead end and see how she’ll argue then.

The intention is good, but the next day Li Mumu falls ill.

When Wang Yunxiao goes to see her in the morning, he discovers her three tails are gone. She’s shivering under the covers, and when he touches her forehead, it’s burning hot.

This is exactly the same as her symptoms when it just started snowing.

What’s with that... Did you delete the entire thesis and start over from the title?

The symptoms are more severe this time around, with the specific manifestation being her mind is offline again—not only is her reaction slow, but she can’t even recognize Wang Yunxiao.

Her gaze is as vacant as that of a child just picked up from a trash heap.

So fragile it makes your heart ache.

Wait a second... Fragile?

This is something Wang Yunxiao has never associated with Li Mumu before.

You could say Eldest Miss Li is knowledgeable, composed, gentle, and virtuous; quirky; wilful and capricious; occasionally silly...

But even when she was being silly in the past, you couldn’t describe her as fragile.

She looks harmless, but if you harbor any ill intentions towards her and rashly approach, you might just get scratched to death by her claw.

Wang Yunxiao’s memory of being scratched by that big snow ferret...bah! by White Hair, is still vivid from that night.

It was literally a chunk of flesh gouged out.

But it’s different now. Looking at Li Mumu in front of him, Wang Yunxiao even wonders if she has deleted her account and run off with her bucket.

The girl in front of him, besides resembling Li Mumu, has none of the preconceived notions about her that exist in his mind.

Wang Yunxiao doesn’t even believe it and touches her again. There’s no resistance whatsoever.

"Li Mumu?"

"?"

The girl shrinks back into the covers, looking at him with a puzzled and dazed expression.

"Do you remember who I am?"

"..."

Li Mumu doesn’t say a word, just shrinks back into the covers and quietly watches him.

What’s to be done with this, tell me...

With no other options, Wang Yunxiao asks, "Do you feel unwell anywhere?"

"So cold."

Nonsense, with such a high fever, anyone would feel cold.

She wouldn’t agree to go to the hospital... Wait a second, that was her before.

"Should I take you to the hospital?"

Li Mumu hesitates for a moment, then lightly nods.

Well, it seems like frying your brain isn’t entirely without benefits.

"Get dressed, and let’s go now."

Li Mumu didn’t move an inch, just staring blankly at Wang Yunxiao.

"You... surely haven’t forgotten how to dress yourself, have you?"

That’s it, her brain must have been bleached.

Wang Yunxiao tentatively asked: "Is it ok if I help you get dressed?"

Li Mumu clutched the quilt, saying nothing.

"Then I’ll go call Jiang Yinyin over. Do you remember who Jiang Yinyin is?"

"..."

Wang Yunxiao sighed and turned to leave.

"Don’t go..."

"I’m going to find Jiang... huh?"

Finally, a reaction!

Wang Yunxiao quickly returned, sat down on the edge of the kang bed, and asked softly, "I won’t go, just tell me what you need."

"Who are you?"

I...

Speechless, Wang Yunxiao said: "My name is Wang Yunxiao, and you’re Li Mumu. You don’t remember that?"

"Oh..."

Li Mumu’s eyes whirled around and she whispered: "Wang Yunxiao, I’m hungry."

Are you a pig? Did you finish all the biscuits and sausages from yesterday?

Ah right, she must have forgotten...

Wang Yunxiao turned to grab the biscuits from the table, handing them to Li Mumu: "Eat some of these to fend off the hunger, I’ll go boil some water for you."

"Don’t leave."

"I won’t go; I’ll just be at the door, you can see me."

Li Mumu thought for a while and finally nodded her agreement.

Wang Yunxiao went to the outer room to boil water, and as soon as he placed the kettle on the stove, he turned to see her wrapped in a quilt, hidden behind the door crack, munching on biscuits rapidly, her large black eyes fixed intently on him.

"It’s ok, you don’t have to be scared, this is a school, there are no strangers here... do you still remember who you are?"

"My name is Li Mumu."

"Anything else?"

"We are not husband and wife."

Huh?

Wang Yunxiao thought to himself, what does that have to do with anything? I’m talking about the front gate and you’re talking about hip joints?

Just as he was about to retort, it struck him before the words left his mouth, and he frowned, looking at Li Mumu.

This was cold reading.

She didn’t remember anything right now, but she was gathering information through this approach.

The content of these few sentences was not important; what was important was that she could derive her own analysis and judgment from Wang Yunxiao’s reaction.

Is it confusion, secret delight, or awkward silence?

Any of these reactions could reveal a considerable amount of information.

But it’s useless to try that on me; I know these tricks too.

After thinking a bit, Wang Yunxiao said indifferently: "It’s the end of October of the second year of the Ming Country, your name is Li Mumu, and you’re the daughter of Overseas Chinese who has returned to the country. Your father is Mu Yuming, and your mother is Li Ya... Do you remember any of this?"

Li Mumu’s gaze shifted, silently nibbling on the biscuits without a word.

Indeed, she was cold reading.

If you truly forgot everything, why aren’t you surprised at all about your dad being Mr. Mu and your mom being Mrs. Li?

Because she was parsing the amount of information contained in the sentence, she wasn’t concerned about the truthfulness of the content.

Certain professionals have to instinctively doubt everything, even themselves.

"I’m your good friend, I know a lot about you, you can ask me anything."

Li Mumu looked at Wang Yunxiao quietly, and after a long while, she finally spoke: "You suspect I am not who I claim to be."
