BXBX NOVEL Chapter 49 - A Real Charm?
With her legs trembling and tears from her eyes, Han Xiaowen ran to her mother's room.
The room was not much decorated with colours and had a simple white paint, but still, there was a serene atmosphere within it.
A small flower pot was placed beside the head of the bad which had the freshest flowers available.
On the bed laid a charming and beautiful woman who seemed to appear in her mid-forties. She was identical to Han Xiaowen in all aspects be it the face, hair, or body. Her face looked exquisite, but her eyes were closed and eyebrows creased seemingly in deep thought and worry.
A nurse was sitting by her head taking care of the medical instruments and other medicinal stuff.
Noticing that Han Xiaowen walk in, the nurse stood up with haste and greeted her before walking out of the room.
Walking out she sighed and shook her head.
The nurse had been taking care of Han Xiaowen's mother for more than a year now, and she had seen Han Xiaowen crying by her mother's side many times.
Watching her still unconscious mother, Han Xiaowen couldn't hold it any longer and cried loudly as she fell on the floor kneeling.
It had already been years and though it might look that Han Xiaowen had not yet given up on her mother, there was no one by her side to make her feel secure or anyone who would make her feel better. These two years she has been trying to hold herself from falling apart.
She didn't have friends who could be called as such nor any relatives besides her aunt, but she was also very busy and rarely came to meet her.
Han Xiaowen had been storing all her pain and sadness in her heart.
She would only be able to open up herself at night crying all night by her mother's side trying to pour out her pain and agony.
But it was like crying in front of a tree, there was no emotional support which made her even more miserable.
"Sniff sniff."
After crying for a few minutes Han Xiaowen wiped her tears off and stood up while carrying the wooden case.
Han Xiaowen opened the case and the Spirit Cleansing Charm from it and placed the case careful y by the side of the bed.
As she held the charm her body trembled, the charm was worth 50,000 Yuan's, but the money didn't mean much to her while comparing it to her mother's life.
She knew it was not going to be fake, it would still have some effect on her mother, but nevertheless, she couldn't contain her excitement in her heart as her eyes brightened as she thought that her mother would really wake up after her years of slumber and hug her like before just by throwing the charm in her hand on her.
Li Fen who had just walked in sighed after looking at Han Xiaowen and shook her head.
'If only she had not been fooled, what can we do she was forced to do it, with how the things in the companies are going on she is really going to become someone's puppet, Sister Xaiowen is really pitiful.'
She wanted to wait for Han Xiaowen after she uses the charm and talk to her properly thinking of finding a way to solve the problems.
Though she was her bodyguard Li Fen treated Han Xiaowen like her small sister and didn't want to see her fall into such a situation.
Han Xiaowen stood there clutching the Spirit Cleansing Charm and took a few steps back as she stood ramrod by spreading her legs.
Han Xiaowen then took a deep breath to calm herself down a bit and walked closer to her mother and placed the Spirit Cleansing Charm on her forehead as Ye Qian had told her to.
After placing the Spirit Cleansing Charm on her mother's forehead Han Xiaowen again took a deep breath and lightly muttered.
"LIN"
Seeing how Han Xiaowen was behaving and even believing in such superstitions Li Fen felt her heart move.
Because Han Xiaowen who was a well-educated scholar who studied at the best university was having faith in such kinds of things.
But then something strange happened which forced her to not believe herself whether what she was seeing was true or not.
Li Fen rubbed her eyes and looked at the scene in front of her again.
The charm the Han Xiaowen had placed on her mother's forehead containing red engravings started to fly above her head and stopped when it was about 50 cm in the air from her body.
Then the old yellow paper turned into many small pieces and started to form many golden coloured paper bits which further started to emit light and then flew across the woman lying on the bed and formed a dome on her.
While the biggest piece of the charm which was still flying in the air emitted a golden ripple that passed to all the tiny golden balls surrounding Han Xiaowen's mother which emitted rays of golden light that started to converge at the biggest piece and formed a dome with a light net.
It was as if a small sun was present in the room but it was cold, and the light was so bright that it could have almost blinded the ladies if they had not covered it with their hands. Still, they felt stinging in their eyes.
'What the fu*k is this, is this really magic or I am hallucinating.'
Li Fen thought as she closed her eyes with her hands.
While Han Xiaowen had completely different thoughts.
'That master didn't try to deceive me he was really sent to help me by the nature.'
A few moments later the sensation was lost and when they opened their eyes they saw.
Many ripples were being passed to and fro between the small pieces and the big piece of the charm.
Han Xiaowen was also shocked a little she had not thought that such things would happen, after placing the charm and muttering the word.
She had thought that the charm would stitch to her forehead for a while and then the medicine in it would penetrate her mother's head which would help her wake in a few hours or a day.
However, things didn't turn how she had thought and even outpaced her imagination capabilities.
Meanwhile, after a minute or so, the golden net started to fade away and the charm started to disappear and then a few cool silver rays entered her mother's body.
In the blink of an eye, all they could see was literally nothing of the charm as if it never existed, to begin with.
Li Fen felt her fine hairs standing. She had seen many of some frauds who try to cheat people by using some chemical reactions after being with Han Xiaowen all the while as they searched for a cure for her mother's conditions.
'Could it be that these are things what the real charms do?'
Thinking of this Li Fen glanced at the Wooden case lying beside the bed and she started to shake.
It was not only her who was terrified by the charms, but Han Xiaowen was also trembling all over but it was from the shock, fear and delight as well.
Han Xiaowen was also looking at the Wooden case and thought.
'These charms might really work as well and if that master that sold charms to her had said was true then mom will wake up soon.'
With that thought tears of joy welled up in her eyes.
Han Xiaowen couldn't hold on to herself anymore and rushed to the bed in excitement and sat beside her mother eager for her to wake up.
