The eldest daughter of the Su family, stolen away for 18 years, has returned! She's actually a little Taoist priestess from the countryside who can divine fortunes and capture ghosts.
As ...
Yan Ning remained calm and said indifferently, "It's hard to tell right from wrong. I won't interfere with matters of revenge. When we get to the underworld, judges will come to judge you and her."
"Haha, you still have some self-awareness; you know you can't control it."
Yuan Yuan grinned sinisterly, her face expressionless, seemingly unconcerned about the trial.
Yan Ning paused, then asked calmly, "I only want to know one thing."
"Now that you've taken your revenge, why don't you leave?"
Yuan Yuan froze, the madness on her face vanished instantly, replaced by a trace of desolation, and her tone became somber:
“I can’t go back… My family has long since abandoned me, and no one is performing a ritual for me to pass on to the afterlife.”
"Whatever, being a wandering ghost is fine too."
Yan Ning smiled and said softly, "I can help you. I can help you leave the building."
Yuan Yuan was somewhat surprised, and a glimmer of light flashed in her previously dim eyes:
"Really? You're willing to help me?"
She couldn't believe that in this cold world, there would still be someone willing to lend her a helping hand.
Yan Ning nodded and said earnestly, "It's true, my master taught me all these skills so that I could help those suffering in the world."
After saying that, Yan Ning opened the canvas bag beside her.
She first took out an old-fashioned copper bell, shook it gently, and it made a clear and melodious sound.
Next, she took out several sandalwood candles, placed them around the room, and lit them with a lighter.
The candlelight illuminated her face and added a touch of warmth to the gloomy hallway.
The Xie family.
Xie Huaiye sat in the room, his brows furrowed, and irritably threw his phone on the table.
Several unprocessed messages remained on the phone screen.
Chen Mei's husband had already received confirmation from the police that Chen Mei had committed suicide.
However, he continued to accuse the Xie Group online, causing the Xie Group's stock price to begin to decline.
He even went so far as to demand ten million from Xie Huaiye before he would shut up!
Ten million is nothing to Xie Huaiye, but if he agrees so easily, what if this kind of thing happens more and more often?
He was quickly thinking of a solution when his phone suddenly rang.
Xie Huaiye glanced at the caller ID; it was Assistant Li.
He reached out and pressed the speakerphone button, and Assistant Li's voice, instantly tinged with excitement, came through the receiver:
"Mr. Xie, I just received a text message from an anonymous number saying that Chen Mei committed suicide because she felt guilty and uneasy for years after causing the death of her colleague Yuan Yuan."
"That person also sent over a lot of photos and a handwritten confession from Chen Mei. The photos were evidence that Chen Mei spread rumors about Yuan Yuan five years ago."
"In her confession, Chen Mei admitted that she fabricated rumors about Yuan Yuan at the company, which caused Yuan Yuan to lose her job and ultimately led to her death. She expressed deep regret and felt like a sinner."
"Chen Chenmei also said that her husband was Yuan Yuan's boyfriend back then, and the two of them got together after Yuan Yuan was falsely accused by Chenmei of leaving her job!"
Xie Huaiye sat up abruptly and immediately asked:
Who is that anonymous number? Why did they send it to you?
Assistant Li seemed a bit confused as well, and after a pause, he said, "I don't know, the number is disconnected when I called, how strange!"
"Could it be a colleague who knew the truth about Yuan Yuan's death five years ago, and only dared to send an anonymous text message to tell the truth?"
Xie Huaiye calmly said, "Send me the evidence first, and I'll verify its authenticity."
Assistant Li continued, "Okay, I've already sent you the email."
Xie Huaiye logged into his email, opened the email forwarded by Assistant Li, and carefully examined the photos and suicide note.
His gaze sharpened as he stared intently at the screen, not missing a single detail.
After careful examination, Xie Huaiye confirmed that the photos and the letter of repentance were genuine.
Chen Mei's husband simply wanted to use public pressure to make a hefty sum of money from the company.
This evidence clearly shows that Chen Mei committed suicide, and that she and her husband were the ones who killed Yuan Yuan.
With this irrefutable evidence, public opinion will definitely shift immediately.
Chen Mei's husband no longer dared to extort money from the company so easily.
Xie Huaiye narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a moment, and then hung up the phone.
He quickly picked up his phone, dialed the head of public relations, and gave a concise and forceful explanation:
"Go and negotiate with Chen Mei's husband immediately, bring the information I just sent you, and make him stop spreading rumors and insulting the company right away."
After hanging up the phone, Xie Huaiye leaned back in his chair, his fingers rhythmically tapping on the table.
He was puzzled. Who was this unfamiliar number, and why was it suddenly helping him?
Is it really as Assistant Li said, that a colleague who knew the truth back then had a change of heart?
But how could an ordinary colleague possibly have such detailed and extensive information?
At this moment, Assistant Li sent a picture via WeChat, saying:
"There's one more thing. The security guard just told me that Miss Su used your fiancée's name to stay in the building for about an hour last night."
When Xie Huaiye clicked on the picture, he saw Yan Ning walking in the middle of the hall with a small bag on her back.
He frowned and asked, "What did she go to the building for?"
After a moment's hesitation, Assistant Li replied, "It seems she went to the 18th floor, where there are no security cameras."
Xie Huaiye pursed his lips. Why did Su Yanning suddenly go to the Xie Group building? Is she related to that mysterious number?
Could it be... that she is the mysterious person?
After seeing Yuan Yuan off, Yan Ning returned to the Su family.
Under intense mental torment, Chen Mei was forced to write a letter of repentance.
Collecting those photos and Chen Mei's confession and then forwarding them to Assistant Li took Su Yiwan a considerable amount of time.
If it weren't for Xie Huaiye giving her three million, and her feeling indebted to him, she wouldn't have bothered helping Xie Huaiye with these cleanup matters.
After returning to her room, she washed up and went to bed, falling asleep immediately.
The next day, Yan Ning went to school again with her schoolbag on her back.
The school was peaceful today. Because of Yan Ning's previous treatment of Su Muyao, the students were all exceptionally polite to her, and some even offered to help her hand in her homework.
Yan Ning attended classes for the entire morning, but she always felt like something was missing.
She pondered for a moment and suddenly realized that Teacher Qiao didn't seem to be here today.
She was usually the first one to arrive at school, and as soon as she got there, she would come to the classroom to see her classmates. Sometimes she would even bring them food.
She didn't show up all morning today.
Yan Ning found it a bit strange, but then she thought that she was probably dealing with the divorce.
During lunch break, Yan Ning was about to lie down on the table to sleep when her phone suddenly vibrated.
She picked it up and saw that Teacher Qiao had suddenly sent her a message.
The message was concise, containing only three numbers: "995".
Yan Ning frowned and silently counted to himself, 995...
Help me?!
