Ji Fang found it hard to believe her almost fantastical words.
But noticing something was off about her daughter's tone, she couldn't help but worry.
"Yan Yan, once someone dies, they're gone. They can't come back."
Perhaps the recent investigation by the Dorrance family has put too much pressure on her.
Therefore, feeling guilty, she thought of these supernatural things.
"Mom, it's true, she's really still here..."
As Ling Yan spoke, she turned on all the lights in the room, as if afraid that there might be another dark corner in the room.
Ji Fang grew increasingly worried as she listened. "Yan Yan, what exactly happened?"
We were talking fine the other day, so why are you saying such strange things today?
The scenes from the movie, along with Gu Weiwei's struggling expression as she was injected with the drug for the last time, flashed through Ling Yan's mind, plunging her into deep fear.
"Mom, if what Gu Siting said is true, he will soon find out where Gu Weiwei is. He will find her, he will know... that we killed him..."
At first, Gu Siting wanted to hide Gu Weiwei's body in the renovated wine cellar, but she didn't care.
Even though she lived in the Gu family home and knew that her body was in the basement of the Gu residence, she never felt the slightest fear.
But today she felt a fear from the depths of her soul, as if Mu Weiwei was relaying one message after another to Gu Weiwei.
Gu Siting said at that time that the owner of the nine-eyed dzi bead would tell him where Gu Weiwei's soul was in the world six months later.
Now that we've calculated the time, that six-month period is almost up.
Before today, even though Kaman Dorrance had been sending people to investigate Gu Weiwei's death, she had never been afraid.
But now, she was truly afraid, afraid that the nine-eyed dzi bead would really keep Gu Weiwei's soul in this world, allowing them to find her.
At that time, no matter how much she and her mother deny it, they will believe everything Gu Weiwei says.
After listening, Ji Fang remained silent for a while before offering words of comfort.
"Don't worry, I'll book a flight for tomorrow to come and be with you, and we can discuss it then."
Her daughter's tone sent chills down her spine.
"Mom, don't hang up, talk to me, I'm scared..."
Ling Yan nervously looked around her room, which was empty except for her, as if there was something unseen around her.
She couldn't confide in or discuss this with anyone except her mother, and she especially couldn't tell Gu Siting.
“Okay, I won’t hang up. Mom will talk to you,” Ji Fang said patiently.
Regarding Gu Weiwei's matter, the mother and daughter could no longer discuss it with anyone else but each other.
Ling Yan sat curled up on the sofa, holding her phone. "What will we do if Gu Siting finds out, Mom? What will we do?"
If he had known Gu Weiwei was still alive, he definitely wouldn't have given her his heart.
"There will be a way. Once I get there, we'll figure something out together," Ji Fang comforted her distraught daughter.
Although what the daughter said was a bit far-fetched, it's better to be safe than sorry, so perhaps they really need to be prepared.
Otherwise, if Gu Siting and Kaman Dorrance really found out, the two of them would definitely not survive.
"Mom, I don't want to die, and I especially don't want to die at Gu Siting's hands." As Ling Yan spoke, she was overcome with grief and couldn't help but cry.
She had been battling illness for over twenty years, and was only just beginning a new, healthy life when everything was about to end. She was unwilling to accept it.
