Upon hearing this, she was slapped by an elder of the Ye family, who told her to be careful with her words and not to talk nonsense.

A grand wedding ended abruptly.

Nobody expected it.

The onlookers on the street looked displeased and began to discuss amongst themselves.

"If you ask me, it must be the vengeful spirits of those who perished in the Lin Garden fire, who are preventing the city from holding large-scale celebrations."

"Linyuan is a large place with many houses. It used to be the residence of an old landlord, so it was considered unlucky. Whoever lived there would be unlucky."

"Nonsense. Lin Garden has been established for a hundred years. The fire a few years ago did not reach Lin Garden. It must have been done by evil spirits."

"Bullshit! What era are we living in? You still believe in superstition?"

Young people naturally don't believe in evil spirits committing crimes.

However, the Ye family was of high status, and Ye Qiqi's arrest on the spot was truly chilling. Rumors spread throughout the city, and for a time, the entire city was shrouded in shadow.

Slurp.

A military vehicle sped through the city.

When the car stopped in front of the park, a tall and handsome man rushed out of the car.

He rushed into the fire without regard for anything else.

"Zhizhi, Zhizhi——"

The man screamed with heart-wrenching cries, like the mournful howl of a lone wolf, echoing through the thick fog and reaching the ears of the firefighters, making them feel his utter despair.

Rumble.

At that moment, a thunderclap suddenly exploded in the sky, followed by large raindrops that rushed down, extinguishing the last layer of fire on the garden.

In the rain, the smoke was washed away, leaving behind black grooves.

The firefighters were overjoyed, but their smiles vanished the next second.
