Chapter 291 He has something to do
Ye Wanxi observed their reactions and smiled, "Actually, there are more than just these two methods. If we can find someone to perform a ritual for them, these wandering ghosts might still be able to reincarnate."
"But people with such abilities are usually either catching ghosts or on their way to do so. If you actually run into them, you'd be lucky to avoid getting beaten up. Asking them to help you pass on to the afterlife is probably..."
"Thank goodness we're alright." Old Song shivered, gripped his wife's hand tightly, and decided to go back and find a temple to pray.
Although they couldn't personally thank the lady who helped them avoid the crisis, it shouldn't hurt to pray to the gods more often, right?
After all, there's an old saying that goes, "The more gods you worship, the more gods will protect you!"
After explaining the situation between the two of them, Ye Wanxi took the afternoon tea that Gao Min had handed her and sat down on the sofa. She also invited a few guests to sit down and have something to eat.
She gave them the amulets because they were not related to her, yet they were willing to speak up for her despite being complete strangers.
Now that the two have overcome their misfortune, it can be considered that their previous encounter has created a relatively positive outcome.
Thinking this, Ye Wanxi looked up at the Song family of four, her gaze suddenly falling on their eldest son.
"Huh?"
"What's wrong?" Old Song immediately became nervous when he saw Ye Wanxi's expression. "Is there something else between us?"
"You're all alright." Ye Wanxi pointed at Song Zhaoming. "He's in trouble."
"What?"
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the Song family members all changed. Song Zhaoming frowned unhappily, clearly disgusted and repulsed by Ye Wanxi's words, and his eyes revealed a hint of blatant suspicion and wariness.
The Song couple couldn't worry about anything else at this moment. They looked at Ye Wanxi anxiously and asked for help, "Master Ye, is there something wrong with Zhaoming? Will he be in trouble? How can we avoid this?"
"Don't be nervous. Let me ask him a few questions." Ye Wanxi waved reassuringly to the two of them, then stared at Song Zhaoming and asked, "Have you ever been in a relationship?"
Song Zhaoming's face darkened, and he said sarcastically, "Aren't you a master? You can't even guess this?"
"Can't I even ask?" Ye Wanxi noticed his rejection and chuckled. "Then there's nothing more to say."
"Hey, wait, Zhaoming, what's wrong with you? Just answer Master Ye's questions, why are you asking so many questions?" Old Song's face turned fierce when he got anxious, which was quite intimidating.
Although Mrs. Song did not get angry, she stared at her son with disapproval and gently advised, "Zhaoming, speak properly."
Song Yulan knew that her brother was a staunch atheist, and since matters of the heart were her brother's Achilles' heel, it was not surprising that her brother would be unhappy.
However, since they came with the Jiang family today, even if they didn't want to give Miss Ye face, they couldn't afford to disrespect the Jiang family.
Otherwise, people will definitely think that they are repaying kindness with enmity. They kindly led them to find someone, but they are so disrespectful, which will make them lose face as well.
"elder brother……"
Song Zhaoming knew what his sister meant, but he held back and said, "Mm."
Are you still single?
"Um."
Do you have someone you like?
"No."
With each question Song Zhaoming heard, his face darkened further.
The expressions of the others also became somewhat subtle. Ye Wanxi's questions were too strange and ambiguous, sounding as if she was deliberately inquiring about people's love lives and that she was interested in them.
Even Gao Min was a little startled. She coughed lightly and reminded Ye Wanxi to stop.
Song Zhaoming's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. After holding back for a long time, he finally couldn't help but sneer, "Is this all Master Ye wants to ask? Or is Master Ye trying to tell me that I will meet my other half and fall in love with her quickly?"
Ye Wanxi ignored his sarcasm and calmly said, "Sorry, I was just curious, so I asked a few more questions. Now that we've got to the point, since you've had relationships before, did you know that your ex-girlfriend is no longer alive?"
Song Zhaoming's eyes narrowed slightly. After realizing what Ye Wanxi had said, he jumped to his feet: "What did you say? How could Yun Qing..."
Mr. and Mrs. Song also looked bewildered: "This..."
Jiang Shaofeng and the others also looked surprised and a little embarrassed. After all, this was someone else's family matter, and it was really inappropriate for them to be listening.
But since the people came with them, they couldn't leave early and were forced to just watch from the sidelines.
"It seems you don't know." Ye Wanxi sighed as she looked at the undisguised shock and grief on Song Zhaoming's face, and dropped another bombshell, "Then you probably don't know that she gave birth to your child before she died."
"child?!"
The elderly couple gasped in shock, and Song Zhaoming turned deathly pale, swaying precariously.
Song Yulan quickly reached out to help him up, angrily saying, "How is this possible? How could that woman have my brother's child? She was the one who initiated the breakup, and she'd already found someone else. Even if she really is pregnant, who knows whose child it is?"
"Yulan!"
Song Yulan was stopped by Song Zhaoming, but instead of shutting up, she became even more angry: "Did I say something wrong? That woman is a gold digger. You treated her so well, but she broke up with him just like that and even cheated on him. Such a materialistic woman doesn't deserve you at all."
Song Yulan had always known that her brother had a girlfriend he had been dating for nearly two years. The girl was about the same age as him, and the two had a very good relationship. Her brother also liked this future sister-in-law very much.
About eight or nine months ago, when the two were about to get married, the woman cheated on her brother with a rich second-generation heir who was inferior to her brother in every way, and abandoned her brother.
This incident was a huge blow to her brother. Since then, he has never dated again, nor has he ever mentioned that woman in front of her.
But Song Yulan knew that her brother had never been able to let go of that woman.
That's why Song Yulan hated that woman even more. Her brother was so outstanding, how could anyone bear to treat him like that?
But now, someone is telling her that the woman is dead, and that she had given birth to her brother's child before she died. This is utterly absurd!
Hearing Song Yulan's roar, Ye Wanxi didn't rush to explain. She only asked Song Zhaoming one last question: "Is that what you think too?"
Song Zhaoming was silent for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "I don't think she's like that."
"elder brother!"
Song Zhaoming lowered his eyes and remained silent. Yes, he thought she wasn't that kind of person, but the truth slapped him hard in the face.
Just like nine months ago, he didn't think that the person he loved would leave him for money, and he didn't believe that the relationship of the past two years was just a false bubble that would burst at the slightest touch and couldn't be kept.
