Xu Changqing frowned, looking at the still-bleeding wound on her left shoulder. After a moment's hesitation, she took the wolf tooth hanging from her neck and pressed it against the wound.
'Is this related?'
'It is?'
Before the large box appeared that night, she had been holding this wolf tooth. Later, in her panic, the cloth strip and bandage had been transferred into the box.
But as she looked now?
It didn't seem to be sucking her blood like some jade pendant or ring from a novel… 'My brain, honestly. How could I even think of that?' Xu Changqing shook her head with a wry laugh.
"What are you laughing at? Hurry up and wash so you can get to sleep." Although Old Mrs. Xu, who was just a wall away, was whispering, her voice was exceptionally clear in the dead of night.
Xu Changqing quickly called out her agreement and put the wolf tooth pendant back on. 'I do need to hurry. I'll wash up quickly, then I need to take the kitchen knife back to the kitchen.'
