Chapter 100: Eighteen Levels of Hell
After Shen Ningyuan finished speaking, Ji Zehai choked up.
Because she was right, Ji Yunchuan's body was not even found, he died a violent death.
Buddhists often say: Those who die an unnatural death will go to the eighteen levels of hell.
Ji Zehai stared at Shen Ningyuan, wishing he could cut off a piece of her flesh.
Being stared at by Ji Zehai, Shen Ningyuan asked in surprise: "Why is Lord Ji staring at me like this? Did I say something wrong?"
Ji Zehai's mouth twitched, and he forced himself to calm down, pretending to be calm and said: "No, you are not wrong."
Since Ji Zehai said so, Shen Ningyuan would of course continue crying.
She cried and wailed, and her words were full of curses that Ji Yunchuan would go to the eighteen levels of hell and suffer there.
Occasionally, she would say a few nice words, all of which were to remind Ji Yunchuan that if he didn't have enough money in the afterlife, he should remember to tell her in his dreams so that she could burn paper money for him.
Ji Yunchuan was standing in the corner. When he heard these words, the anger in his heart was pent up and was almost on the verge of exploding.
Fortunately, at this time, Shen Ningyuan was tired of crying and stopped crying instantly.
It was as if nothing had happened just now.
Ji Yunchuan looked at Shen Ningyuan who suddenly became quiet, and was confused for a moment.
Why did she suddenly stop moving? Was she waiting for something?
After a while, a servant's voice was heard: "General Shen and his family are here to pay their respects!"
Hearing this voice, Shen Ningyuan's brows moved slightly.
Are mom and dad here?
Afterwards, the Shen family, headed by Shen Potian, appeared in everyone’s sight.
Shen Ningyuan looked up and saw that only Shen Potian, Shen Haobai, and Cui Mingzhu came from the Shen family.
The first time he saw Cui Mingzhu, a strange smile immediately appeared in Shen Ningyuan's eyes.
She knew that Cui Mingzhu would definitely come.
Shen Potian led the two of them to the center of the ancestral hall, and worshipped Ji Yunchuan's coffin, and then walked to Shen Ningyuan, and said solemnly: "Yuan'er, condolences!"
Then he added: "With your parents here, you don't have to be afraid of anything."
"Dad, I know."
Shen Ningyuan nodded, and turned his gaze to Shen Haobai behind Shen Potian, with some doubt in his eyes.
Shen Haobai looked at Shen Ningyuan and shook his head calmly.
Seeing this, Shen Ningyuan was certain that Shen Potian and Cui Jin didn’t know about Ji Yunchuan’s fake death.
After Shen Potian finished his condolences, he took Cui Mingzhu away from the ancestral hall.
In the following period of time, they had to stay in the front hall and wait with everyone else to see Ji Yunchuan off for funeral.
After walking into the front hall, Cui Mingzhu made an excuse to go to the toilet, said hello to Shen Potian, and left the front hall.
Shen Haobai glanced at Cui Mingzhu, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
He knew that Cui Mingzhu must have some new plan!
After Cui Mingzhu left, Shen Haobai also made up an excuse and left.
Arriving outside the wall of Ji’s backyard, Shen Haobai found Yi Ge.
Instruct her to tell Shen Ningyuan about Cui Mingzhu's abnormality.
After doing all this, Shen Haobai returned to the front hall and stood behind Shen Potian.
Shen Potian glanced at Shen Haobai with his peripheral vision and asked in a low voice, “What did you go out for just now?”
"Father, I just went out for some fresh air." Shen Haobai replied.
Hearing this, Shen Potian’s face darkened and he emphasized his tone, “Haobai, you and your second brother are very wrong today.”
“Father might have seen it wrong,” Shen Haobai said.
"I saw it wrong?" Shen Potian snorted coldly, "I know you are hiding something from me and your mother!"
Shen Haobai was startled, and looked at Shen Potian’s back nervously.
When he was so nervous that he didn't know how to respond.
But Shen Potian suddenly chuckled, "Forget it, you are not young anymore, I am too lazy to care about you. No matter what you do, just pay attention, everything is based on the safety of you three brothers and sisters, understand?"
After hearing this, Shen Haobai's face froze, with a hint of disbelief in his eyes.
He originally thought that Shen Potian would be angry at their self-assertion.
Unexpectedly, even in the case of doubt, Shen Potian still chose to turn a blind eye.
Shen Haobai nodded quickly, "Remember what my father said!"
After getting Shen Haobai's response, Shen Potian stopped talking, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
After hearing what Shen Haobai said, Yi Ge went to the ancestral hall immediately.
Coming to Shen Ningyuan's side, Yi Ge leaned close to her ear and told her Shen Haobai's words verbatim.
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan raised her eyebrows slightly.
As soon as she arrived at the Ji family, was Cui Mingzhu so impatient?
Here, Shen Ningyuan just got the news from Cui Mingzhu.
Over there, Cui Mingzhu and Ji Yunchuan had already met in a remote courtyard.
After leaving the ancestral hall, Ji Yunchuan held his breath.
He hated Shen Ningyuan with all his heart, but because of his current situation, he had no way to deal with Shen Ningyuan.
So when he met Cui Mingzhu, Ji Yunchuan's face was not very good.
Seeing him like this, Cui Mingzhu looked worried and asked quickly, "Brother Yunchuan, what happened? Why do you look so bad?"
"It's all because of that bitch Shen Ningyuan!" Ji Yunchuan said angrily.
"What did Chen Ningyuan do again?" Cui Mingzhu asked.
"she--"
Just after uttering a word, Ji Yunchuan opened his mouth, unable to say anything.
He couldn't bring himself to say that Shen Ningyuan was in the ancestral hall, crying and cursing him to go to hell.
In the end, he could only grit his teeth and said, "Nothing!"
Then he asked Cui Mingzhu, "Are you used to living in Shen Ningyuan's villa?"
Cui Mingzhu nodded quickly, "I'm used to it. I live in the other courtyard with good food and drink. It's much more comfortable than living in the Shen family."
"That's good." Ji Yunchuan breathed a sigh of relief. "From now on, you should stay in the other courtyard and take good care of your pregnancy."
As he spoke, Ji Yunchuan lowered his gaze to look at Cui Mingzhu's bulging belly.
She continued: "This is my first child. Since I have a choice, I certainly hope that he can be born safely."
"But, it's a bargain for Shen Ningyuan. We have to let her live a little longer."
As he spoke, Ji Yunchuan sighed regretfully.
If only Shen Ningyuan could be poisoned to death at the funeral that day!
"By the way, Brother Yunchuan, I haven't asked you yet, what are you doing in the Marquis' Mansion?" Cui Mingzhu suddenly thought of something and asked immediately, "There are so many people in the capital, what if you show up at the Marquis' Mansion rashly and get seen by others?"
Ji Yunchuan frowned, but still pretended to be calm and said, "It's okay, I know my limits."
Seeing this, Cui Mingzhu became even more nervous. "What is so important that Brother Yunchuan has to risk being found out for faking his death and come to the Marquis' Mansion in person?"
When Cui Mingzhu questioned him, Ji Yunchuan no longer concealed the truth and said, "That day, when I secretly returned to the mansion, I met a man in the ancestral hall, but I couldn't see his face clearly. I wanted to kill him to silence him, but Ji Yunnuo suddenly appeared and interrupted me."
"What?" Cui Mingzhu's expression changed instantly. "Brother Yunchuan, was someone really seeing us that night?"
Ji Yunchuan nodded, "Yes."
"So I came to the Marquis' Mansion today just to see if there are any suspicious people." Ji Yunchuan added.
At this moment, Cui Mingzhu's face became very ugly.
Nene said, "With so many people in the mansion, how can we be sure who was that night?"
"But if we don't find out, if the truth about Brother Yunchuan's fake death is revealed, and that person's plan is ruined, he will not let Brother Yunchuan go!"
When she spoke the last part, Cui Mingzhu couldn't help but tremble and her body shook slightly.
