Chapter 96: Chapter 96: Xiao Jingran’s Sixth Sense

Ling Yu was aghast.

She thought that the Xiao family only had this one anomaly who could see ghosts, Xiao Qingya. When Xiao Jingran passed by her ghost before, she was sure he couldn’t see her.

That was the reason that she had to try another method—entering his dream—to communicate with him.

Currently, she was absolutely terrified and guilty. Don’t tell her that she had made two members of the Xiao family awaken their sixth sense?

She really wanted to turn back and run from the scene. The reason she had confidently entered the room with Xiao Qingya was because she was sure Xiao Jingran couldn’t see her.

Now, he actually could.

What should she do?

"Who are you talking–" Physician Bai stopped himself, and a flash of understanding crossed his eyes. He was astonished.

After patting his disciple’s shoulder, he got up. "I will ask Mo Chen to come over and check your condition."

Physician Bai disappeared behind the door. Meanwhile, Xiao Jingran was still staring at the Ling siblings, and it made them start to feel uncomfortable.

Ling Yu had a familiar face, but her current appearance was more grotesque. Xiao Jingran was a physician and he had dealt with some people’s deep wounds. Hence, he wasn’t that afraid.

He turned to Xiao Qingya. His mother had said that she could see ghosts. He was suddenly a little worried these ghosts’ appearance would make the little one frightened.

However, upon seeing her bright eyes and lively face, he realized that he had worried too much.

[Young Sir, I am deeply sorry!] Ling Yu immediately kowtowed in front of Xiao Jingran, apologizing profusely. [I have made you suffer for these past three weeks.]

Xiao Jingran frowned, and soon, he became helpless. "Get up."

Ling Yu didn’t even dare to lift her head. She was truly feeling guilty right now. Xiao Jingran was Xiao Qingya’s eldest brother. Since she had decided to follow Xiao Qingya, she wanted to obtain his forgiveness.

"It’s alright, it’s not your fault," Xiao Jingran said gently. "Get up. Don’t kowtow to me."

After all, she wasn’t completely sane before.

Ling Yu glanced at Xiao Qingya, and when she saw the little one nodding in approval, she finally got up.

She thanked Xiao Jingran profusely, and then excused themselves, dragging her brother out of the door. Xiao Qingya had told her that their appearance was similar to normal humans in her eyes—it was part of her ability, and only she had it.

So... for other people who had opened their sixth sense, their appearances must have been terrifying. Just like Xiao Qingya, Xiao Jingran had just opened his sixth sense and thus, she didn’t want their ghostly appearance to disturb him.

The medicine boys also excused themselves, realizing that the Xiao family probably wanted some time alone for themselves.

"Eldest Brother, you can also see ghosts?!" Xiao Yuxi had an envious look on her eyes. "Little Ya also has the ability... I wonder if I can have it too."

Xiao Jingran coughed, and then shook his head. "It’s not a good thing. You will be scared if you see their appearances."

Not all ghosts were conscious like Ling Yu and Ling Bo. Besides them, he also could already see some faint figures wandering back and forth. Some had the look of confusion on their faces; they looked dazed and lost.

Zhou Anran secretly examined her eldest son’s reaction.

So far, Xiao Qingya hadn’t said anything within her inner thoughts.

Although she already had a guess in her mind, she still wanted to make sure whether Xiao Jingran also could hear it.

Her eldest son’s current mental state was still a little unstable, so she didn’t want him to reveal any clue in front of Xiao Qingya.

Each of the Xiao family members seemed to be lost in their own thoughts.

Meanwhile, Xiao Fenghao didn’t want to provoke his brother’s attention, so he remained silent in his spot, worried he might attract his insidious brother’s attention.

Alas, his eldest brother wouldn’t miss his only troublesome brother.

"How has Hao’er been doing?" Xiao Jingran gave him a gentle smile.

Xiao Fenghao’s mouth twitched. Fortunately, Xiao Jingran hadn’t read the letter that had revealed his misdeeds.

He stiffly replied, "I have been doing well, Eldest Brother. You can ask Mother or our sisters. I have been helping them in the fields."

Zhou Anran sighed, and she immediately told her eldest son. "You should rest. Don’t bother yourself too much with matters we can talk about later."

Now, she didn’t want Xiao Jingran to know what had happened for the past few months yet. It would only burden his mind.

"Let Mr. Mo examine you to make sure there is nothing wrong first."

With that, she went toward the door. Just as she guessed, Mo Chen was sitting on a chair near the door outside.

Zhou Anran gestured to the room, looking rather worried. "Mr. Mo, can you please take a look at my eldest son?"

Mo Chen nodded, and he walked inside. The moment he heard that Xiao Jingran also had his sixth sense opened, he was mildly surprised.

Nevertheless, upon thinking about his condition, his case wasn’t that peculiar anymore considering what he had gone through. He was almost interested in him until Physician Bai warned him with a stern face that he shouldn’t have any design on his disciple.

Mo Chen wondered whether Xiao Jingran would have an ability similar to Xiao Qingya’s.

After he was done checking Xiao Jingran, he found out that his case was rather normal. He could only see and communicate with the conscious ghosts, but he couldn’t affect them the way Xiao Qingya did.

"Most people who had their sixth sense opened couldn’t communicate with ghosts. They can only see it. You belong to the rare ones," Mo Chen explained.

Xiao Jingran nodded, rather unfazed by his new ability. He was still calm and composed.

"Do you want to close your sixth sense?" Mo Chen suddenly asked.

At the same time, Xiao Jingran suddenly heard a strange mechanical voice.

[Congratulations, Host. You have gained 1000 points.]
