Rushing things won't make a sale. Nan Yuanman is young and more sensitive to people's emotions. She could sense Li Yuzhen's mother's subconscious resistance towards her.
So instead of asking her directly if she needed help at the hospital, she gave her her business card and waited for her to contact her.
However, for three consecutive days, apart from the second day when Li Yuzhen's mother asked Teacher Li to give her a bank card, some toys suitable for children, and expensive health products, she did not contact Nan Yuanman.
Even Li Yuzhen took sick leave and didn't come to class for a week.
Lou Yuqi lay on the table, fiddling with the pencil in his hand, and looked at Nan Yuanman, who was writing large characters seriously, and asked her, "Boss, what illness do you think Li Yuzhen has? Is it serious? She hasn't come to class for a long, long time."
Nobody plays with him anymore.
The kids in Class 1 are all cowards; none of them dare to play with him.
Nan Yuanman had no interest in those extracurricular activities. Rather than foolishly playing on the slide and building sandcastles, she would rather calm down and draw more talismans or learn more characters so that one day she could read her mother's diary without any problems.
Nan Yuanman didn't rush to answer him. After finishing writing the last big character, she said, "Let's go see her after school."
Lou Yuqi's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly: "Great! Great!"
"By the way, shouldn't we bring fruit and flowers when visiting a patient? I've seen my grandma bring them when she goes to the doctor. Let's go buy some too, I wonder what kind of fruit she likes..."
Lou Yuqi rambled on and on, and Nan Yuanman listened attentively to his nonsense before giving him perfunctory "uh-huhs" and "yeahs."
Nan Yuanman frowned slightly, looking somewhat pained. How could there be someone in the world who talks so much?
I don't know where Lou Yuqi got so much to say.
After finally getting through school, Nan Yuanman invited Lou Yuqi to sit in her car and had her sixth brother, who had come to pick her up, take her to Li Yuzhen's house.
Lou Yuqi greeted his grandmother who came to pick him up, gestured for Nan Yuanman to wait for him, and went with the old woman to a nearby stall to buy a few pounds of fruit. He then ran towards her with the fruit in his hands.
"Hello, Brother Feng." Lou Yuqi greeted him politely before turning to Nan Yuanman and saying, "Boss, I bought some bananas and oranges. They're very fresh. Li Yuzhen will definitely like them."
“Yes, yes, I also asked Sixth Brother to buy flowers and toys.” Nan Yuanman told him to sit down and fasten his seatbelt before the group set off for Li Yuzhen’s house.
Li Yuzhen's family is a well-off single-parent family. Her mother started as a live streamer and then moved behind the scenes after making money. It would be easy for the Feng family to find her family's location.
Feng Jingcheng drove very steadily and quickly. In just over ten minutes, the car entered a high-end residential area.
After parking the car in the underground parking lot, Nan Yuanman and Lou Yuqi got out of the car hand in hand, while Feng Jingcheng resignedly carried the large and small bags and followed behind them, pressing the elevator button to go to the floor where Li Yuzhen lived.
As soon as the elevator doors opened, the first thing that caught Nan Yuanman's eye was the overwhelming resentment.
She blinked hard before she could see the Bagua mirror, yellow talisman paper, and dried pomelo leaves pasted on the door. A faint smell of burnt paper still lingered in the air.
Immediately following were sharp cries, interspersed with indistinct questions and soothing words from women.
The three from Nanmanyuan exchanged glances, and Lou Yuqi stepped forward first and rang the doorbell.
Inside the room.
Li Yuzhen's mother was frantically trying to soothe the loudly crying Li Yuzhen when the doorbell rang. She called out, "Wait a minute!"
"Good girl, Yuzhen, don't cry, Mommy's here, Mommy's here."
Li Yuzhen didn't respond; her face was flushed, and she was crying loudly with her eyes closed.
Li Yuzhen's mother simply picked her up and patted her back gently before opening the door: "Who is it..."
When the door opened, she was stunned to see Nan Yuanman standing there. Feng Jingcheng smiled warmly and said, "Hello, I'm Nan Yuanman's brother. Yuzhen hasn't been to school for several days, and she was worried, so she came to visit her."
Nan Yuanman and Lou Yuqi greeted each other politely, "Hello, Auntie."
"It's alright, come in." A hint of unease flashed across Li Yuzhen's mother's eyes as she picked up Li Yuzhen and turned to go inside. "No need to change your shoes, just step in."
Lou Yuqi looked worriedly at Li Yuzhen, who was resting her head on her mother's shoulder and had fallen into a quiet sleep sometime earlier, her body still twitching slightly: "Auntie, how is Li Yuzhen?"
"She's fine, she just has a bit of a cold," Li Yuzhen's mother said with a forced smile.
Nan Yuanman glanced at Li Yuzhen without saying anything, then quickly scanned the layout of the room, his gaze landing on a copper basin with some dust residue in the corner, and a few small garments placed next to the basin.
A knowing glint flashed in Nan Yuanman's eyes. It seemed that Li Yuzhen's mother had asked quite a few people to help look after her this week, but unfortunately...
Not only did they fail to properly send the two infant spirits away, they also angered them.
The room is now filled with resentment and gloom, almost to the point of marinating Li Yuzhen and her mother.
Li Yuzhen's mother escorted Li Yuzhen into the bedroom before hurriedly coming out to greet them: "What would you like to drink? We have Coke, Sprite, and orange juice at home."
Lou Yuqi: "I'd like a Coke, please, Auntie."
Nan Yuanman: "Plain water is fine."
Feng Jingcheng: "I also want plain water."
It was the first time the three of them had formally visited their classmate's house, and they were so nervous that they didn't know what to say.
After taking a sip of his cola, Lou Yuqi hesitated before asking, "Auntie, may I go in and see Li Yuzhen?"
Li Yuzhen's mother nodded: "Okay, but please be gentle, she just fell asleep."
Lou Yuqi asked Nan Yuanman, "Boss, do you want to come along?"
Nan Yuanman shook her head: "I want to chat with Auntie."
Lou Yuqi scratched his head. Although he didn't know what topics children and adults could talk about, he wisely didn't press the matter. He simply said "oh" and went into the master bedroom.
Li Yuzhen's mother realized something and tightened her grip on the water glass slightly. Nan Yuanman asked, "Auntie, do you need my help? I can give you a 5% discount for Li Yuzhen's sake!"
Li Yuzhen's mother looked at Nan Yuanman, hesitant to speak, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Can you... really help me get rid of them?"
“Of course!” Nan Yuanman nodded vigorously, pointing towards the master bedroom: “Auntie, if you keep dragging this out, it will be even worse for Yuzhen.”
"You've had to ask a lot of people to help send them away these past few days, haven't you? They didn't leave, and they've even harassed Yuzhen more and more, haven't they?"
Li Yuzhen's mother gave a wry smile and wiped her face: "Yes."
She had considered contacting Nan Yuanman these past few days, but she was too young. Even though she had witnessed Nan Yuanman's amazing skills, she still had to be extremely cautious when it came to her daughter's safety.
So she used her connections to find many so-called ghost-hunting masters, and the result was...
Not only did she fail to send the items away, but her life was also thrown into chaos.
She suffered numerous contract breaches at work, and the clothing factory she regularly worked with went bankrupt, resulting in a large number of clothing sold through her studio being returned and unsold. Even a major livestreamer she had just negotiated and was about to sign with reneged on the contract, almost causing her to lose all her savings accumulated over the years.
In her daily life, she and Yuzhen have nightmares when they sleep. Yuzhen has been in a state of extreme fright these days and often wakes up crying in the middle of the night.
She also kept hearing people crying in her ear, asking her why they couldn't do it, why they were abandoned, things in the room would suddenly fall down, and the TV and faucets would inexplicably turn on...
She hasn't had a good night's sleep in days and is almost driven crazy by the torment.
Nan Yuanman stared intently at her, as if trying to see into her heart: "Auntie, can you tell me how your two daughters died?"
Li Yuzhen's mother fell silent. After a long while, she said in a hoarse and painful voice, "They... I killed them."
