Chapter 95 Burdened by Yin Debts, Unable to Reincarnate

At this moment, the elevator arrived at the floor that Lu Shijing wanted to go to. The elevator doors opened, and Lu Shijing's assistant was waiting outside.

"President Lu."

Upon seeing his assistant, Lu Shijing gestured with his chin toward Sheng Weiping and said, "Have security come and throw him out. Also, regarding the project we're working on with Shengtong Group, they haven't delivered on time and have breached the contract. Have our lawyers chase up the breach of contract payments."

Sheng Weiping, the CEO of Shengtong Group, looked at Lu Shijing in disbelief. "Mr. Lu, this woman is clearly acting crazy here and cursing me. Why don't you kick her out? And about the breach of contract, I really can't afford the penalty. Please give me a few more days!"

Lu Shijing turned to look at him, his face expressionless. "I don't care what the situation is with Shengtong Group. If you can't pay the breach of contract fee today, then we'll see each other in court."

"President Lu, how can you be so heartless! If you won't give me an extension, the other partners certainly won't either. Are you trying to bankrupt me?!"

Lu Shijing ignored him and went straight out of the elevator. He saw Yun Shu watching the show, so he casually pulled her along and led her to his office.

Sheng Weiping chased after Lu Shijing out of the elevator, but Lu Shijing's assistant stopped him.

The assistant said, "Mr. Sheng, I advise you to leave. Your constant pestering of Young Master Lu will only annoy him. If he gets annoyed with you, Sheng Tong Group will only be in a worse situation than it is now."

Sheng Weiping's face turned pale and then red. He stared intently in the direction of Lu Shijing's office. Only when he saw Lu Shijing pull Yun Shu into the office did he realize something was wrong. He asked his assistant, "Who is that woman to President Lu?"

"Miss Yun is Mr. Lu's wife, but..."

Before the assistant could finish speaking, Sheng Weiping's face turned deathly pale. "It's over. That crazy woman is actually President Lu's wife."

Sheng Weiping stood there in a daze. The security guard downstairs caught up with him, and his assistant asked the guard to escort him out of the company gate.

The CEO's office.

Thinking about the recent situation of Shengtong Group, Lu Shijing said to Yun Shu, "You just said that Sheng Weiping doesn't have many days left, what do you mean?"

"He is burdened by karmic debts, which has caused him constant bad luck and prevented him from succeeding in anything he does. Recently, the influence of these karmic debts has become stronger, and he is facing a bloody disaster."

"No wonder."

Lu Shijing suddenly realized.

“Shengtong Group has a history of several decades and is an old company that has always performed well. However, since the death of Sheng Weiping’s wife, all the projects they have invested in have encountered various problems, and the operating conditions of Shengtong Group have deteriorated.”

Yun Shu carefully recalled Sheng Weiping's appearance and muttered to herself, "Sheng Weiping's karmic debt comes from his marriage palace. Could it be... that he killed his wife?"

Hearing Yun Shu's mutterings, Lu Shijing stood up abruptly. "Yun Shu, is this just your guess, or...?"

If it's true, I must tell Old Master Sheng; we have some connection. Old Master Sheng founded the Shengtong Group and has only one daughter. Sheng Weiping changed his surname to Sheng after marrying into the Sheng family.

Yun Shu frowned and said, "That's not right. His marriage is a mess; he has more than one wife."

Lu Shijing replied, "After Sheng Weiping's first wife passed away, Old Master Sheng was heartbroken and his health deteriorated, so he retired to recuperate and handed the company over to Sheng Weiping."

A year later, Sheng Weiping married a new wife, who brought with her a boy in his early twenties, five years younger than Sheng Weiping's son. Rumors circulated that the boy Sheng Weiping's second wife brought home was his illegitimate child.

Yun Shu's lips twitched. "It's not just a rumor; he is indeed destined to have two biological sons."

Yun Shu thought for a moment, "Sheng Weiping's first wife died, which must be related to him, otherwise he wouldn't have gotten into this karmic debt. Moreover, after he killed her, he used special methods to deal with it, which prevented his wife's soul from entering reincarnation, and she has been harboring resentment for a long time."

Lu Shijing's expression was complicated; he didn't know whether he should tell Old Master Sheng.

The old man had always been fond of doing good deeds, but he never imagined he would have such an ungrateful daughter who had ruined his only daughter like this. The old man's health was already poor; if he knew the truth, he would probably suffer even more.

Yun Shu's voice came again, "I want to go to Sheng Weiping's house to see why his first wife died and couldn't be reincarnated. Do you know where his house is?"

"Know."

Lu Shijing glanced at the date. "However, you have a match tonight, so you can't go. Let's go another day."

"Then let's go tomorrow."

Lu Shijing stared at her for a while, "If you advance this round, you'll need to choose a mentor, and you should rehearse with your mentor tomorrow."

"..." Yun Shu looked at Lu Shijing speechlessly, "I might not even advance, so don't say things that will upset me."

Seeing her sullen expression, Lu Shijing raised an eyebrow. "You really don't want to advance?"

"yes."

Yun Shu suddenly thought of something, her eyes lighting up, "I didn't charge you for the paper offerings and lucky charms I gave you, could you ask the company to terminate my contract? The kind where I don't have to pay a penalty for breach of contract."

Lu Shijing stared at her for a while before slowly saying, "No, it doesn't comply with company regulations. You can calculate the cost of the paper offerings and amulets, and I'll give them to you separately."

"Fine, I already said I'd give it to you, so I won't take your money."

As soon as Yun Shu finished speaking, her phone rang. It was her agent calling, probably urging her to go to the scene.

"Oh, right, this is for you. Happy Mid-Autumn Festival. I hope nothing will bother you on this night of reunion."

Yun Shu took out a paper mooncake gift box from her bag and placed it on Lu Shijing's table before walking towards the door. "I have to go to the scene now, I'm leaving first."

Lu Shijing picked up the mooncake gift box on the table and found that the box could be opened, revealing six paper-made Cantonese-style mooncakes inside.

Since he accepted Yun Shu's strange and unusual items, he has no longer felt uncomfortable, and his mental state has improved a lot.

At this moment, Mu Qing pushed the door open and came in. "Ah Jing, tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival. Are you going home?"

Lu Shijing didn't say anything, but Mu Qing noticed the box of paper mooncakes on his table and saw that Lu Shijing was staring at the mooncakes in a daze.

"Was this a gift from Yun Shu?"

Upon hearing this name, Lu Shijing turned to look at Mu Qing and nodded.

"As expected of Yun Shu, even making paper offerings for the Mid-Autumn Festival." Mu Qing scoffed. "But, given how good we are, why doesn't she give me any?"

Although they were just paper effigies, he now knew that Yun Shu's paper effigies had wonderful uses! They could ward off evil spirits and protect the home!

Upon hearing Mu Qing's words, Lu Shijing frowned in displeasure. "You want to eat it? How about I give you this box?"

Mu Qing: !

Are you serious? This is fucking food for the dead! Have some humanity!

Mu Qing quickly moved towards the door, "This is a gift from Yun Shu, and only you can afford it. You should keep it for yourself!"

Seeing Mu Qing run away in a panic, Lu Shijing's expression became somewhat satisfied, and he played with the mooncake gift box given by Yun Shu for a long time.

He only packed up his things and went to the competition venue after the talent show started filming.

The finals are just around the corner, and this year the competition venue is even more formal. The company has booked a square and set up a special stage.

It took Lu Shijing some time to drive there, and by the time he arrived, it was already Yun Shu's turn.

Yun Shu stepped onto the stage, bowed politely to the judges, and said, "Hello everyone, my performance will be a solo flute piece called 'The Corpse Rises'."

Lu Shijing: ?

Judges: ???
