Shen Yizhi grabbed Lu Yunxi and scolded her harshly: "What nonsense are you talking about! How could Lu Anning be here? Wake up."
"Mother-in-law, what I said is true. I saw her! She was in the hallway. She was wearing a red dress, her eyes were wide open, and she was holding me. Her hands were as cold as ice. Please send someone to find her quickly. She's hiding here."
The door was pushed open forcefully. Tang Jingyuan strode to the bedside and grabbed Lu Yunxi's hand tightly. "What did you see just now?"
The sharp gaze seemed to see through Lu Yunxi. She was forced to look Tang Jingyuan in the eye, frightened by the sudden questioning. After a while, she suddenly remembered something and struggled desperately.
"It wasn't me! I don't know. I really saw her! Third Master, she was in the corridor just now. The power went out, and it was suddenly very cold. The corridor was full of white fog. No one paid attention to me no matter how I shouted. Then, she suddenly appeared."
Lu Yunxi fell into memories, remembered something, and her eyes were filled with horror.
Everyone looked at each other, and no one spoke rashly.
Pei Wenbin questioned, "Yunxi, are you sure? We're all in the banquet hall, and the whole mansion is fine. There wasn't a power outage, and no one heard you calling for help. Are you having a nightmare?"
"How is that possible? There was a power outage. I waited for a long time, but no one paid any attention to me."
Chen Yizi and Pei Wenbin obviously didn't believe it. How could he allow the mansion to have a power outage when holding a birthday party tonight? Lu Yunxi must have taken the dream as reality.
Pei Chengyi went forward and hugged Lu Yunxi, comforting her softly while explaining to Tang Jingyuan: "Uncle, Yunxi didn't get enough rest these days. She might have fainted on the ground due to exhaustion and had a nightmare. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
When Lu Yunxi heard this, she quickly pushed Pei Chengyi away.
"Why don't you believe me? I'm not dreaming. Her hands are icy cold. She just holds me like that. She said the sea is so cold and she's scared to be alone. She wants me to..."
She didn't dare to say the next words. She looked up and saw that no one was talking, and their eyes were full of suspicion towards her. Lu Yunxi suddenly stood up and pulled Pei Chengyi out the door.
"You all don't believe me, I'll take you to see it."
Lu Yunxi stubbornly took Pei Chengyi to the place where she fainted. The corridor was clean and there was no trace of anything. There was only a puddle of water next to where Lu Yunxi fainted. The size of the puddle looked just big enough for a person to stand there.
The moment she saw the water stains, Lu Yunxi's heart sank, and she became even more certain that she was not dreaming.
"Look! This is the evidence. The entire corridor is clean, except for this puddle of water. Why... is there only a water stain here?" She searched in the direction where Lu An Ning had just floated from, but there was no trace at all. Even the place where she appeared could not be found.
There was only a puddle of water where she stayed for a long time!
Lu Yunxi stared at her surroundings, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became.
"Lu Anning is back! Lu Anning really came back to find me."
She was frightened, and suddenly remembered something, so she ran towards the puddle again. She stared at it for a long time, then squatted down again.
Pei Chengyi frowned, not wanting to see her act crazy: "What are you doing? This water stain might be a servant who forgot to mop it clean, don't be suspicious."
The next moment, Lu Yunxi dipped her hand in the water and put it to her nose and sniffed. The fishy smell of the sea hit her in the face. She was so frightened that she stepped back repeatedly and grabbed Pei Chengyi's hand tightly.
"That's not ordinary water, that's sea water. Cheng Yi, it's really Lu Anning. It's really her!"
Seeing this, Tang Jingyuan stepped forward and asked, "Did you see her? What did An Ning tell you? Where is she?"
"I don't know, I don't know." Lu Yunxi shook her head in fear, not daring to look at Tang Jingyuan: "She asked me to accompany her, she said she was very scared. Don't come to me, I don't know anything, it's really none of my business. It's not me..."
"That's enough." Pei Chengyi shouted angrily, "How long are you going to go crazy?"
Lu Yunxi was frightened and wanted to explain, but Pei Chengyi immediately threw her to Shen Yizhi: "Mom, Yunxi has a fever and her mind is not clear. Please take her to the hospital. I will come over after the party is over."
Shen Yizi understood and immediately pulled Lu Yunxi away, not giving Tang Jingyuan a chance to ask more questions.
Tang Jingyuan didn't insist on asking, he just pretended to ask, and stopped asking when Pei Chengyi stopped him.
"Uncle, Yunxi actually caught a cold and has been having a fever repeatedly. She's talking nonsense, don't take it seriously."
Tang Jingyuan looked at Pei Chengyi and asked, "Are you sure that An Ning's accident really has nothing to do with Lu Yunxi?"
Pei Chengyi smiled slightly and looked directly into Tang Jingyuan's eyes: "Uncle, you forgot, they are sisters, although not blood. Yun Xi is timid and not very smart. Even if she wants to, she doesn't have the ability. She just misses her sister too much, so she has nightmares, don't get me wrong."
"Really?" Tang Jingyuan didn't ask any more questions. After all this commotion, he said that he had lost interest and left with his people early.
Pei Wenbin and Pei Chengyi saw him off from the mansion together. It was not until the car disappeared into the darkness that the father and son came to their senses, looked at each other, and frowned at the same time.
"Cheng Yi, what do you think about this?"
Pei Chengyi seemed to be thinking: "I'll find the answer after checking the surveillance."
