Quan Zhi simply shook her head.
“Quan Zhi doesn’t want to see you, and there’s nothing I can do to help you see her. However, I can tell you that Quan Zhi’s death wasn’t suicide. If you’re interested, you can investigate that matter.” Song Mian said this and then led Quan Zhi and the others away.
"Check the surveillance footage! Check the surveillance footage from the research lab on the day Quan Zhi died!" Quan Feng said, but he couldn't hold back any longer and rushed out of the attic to the research lab.
Quan Yanyan tried to stop them, but to no avail. She tried everything she could to stop Quan He and Quan Zeyu.
But Quan He and Quan Zeyu didn't even give Quan Yanyan a glance, and simply left her behind.
The three brothers rushed to the research institute like madmen.
After investigating the surveillance footage, the three Quan brothers finally saw Quan Zhi in the dim and blurry video.
Quan Zhi, who was diligently conducting research in the video, suddenly suffered a myocardial infarction due to overwork.
She hurriedly dialed 120 and then called the three Quan brothers.
But the three brothers seemed to have made a pact, and none of them answered the phone.
Quan Zhi stumbled and scrambled to her feet, her thin and swaying figure causing the three brothers immense heartache.
She held onto the edge of the window, wanting to go downstairs first.
Just then, Quan Zhi's phone rang.
With difficulty, Quan Zhi opened her phone, only to find a video sent by Quan Yanyan.
After Quan Zhi opened the video, the phone played the cheerful laughter of the Quan family.
Quan Fengxian heard his own voice first.
"Second brother, third brother, put your phones down right now! Today is Yan Yan's birthday, we need to give her a proper celebration!"
Quan He's voice followed immediately: "I know, today is the first birthday we've spent with Yan Yan, so no one is allowed to disturb us."
Quan Zeyu's voice rang out: "Happy birthday to our little princess! May you always be happy!"
In stark contrast to the cheerful voice in the phone video, Quan Zhi was filled with sorrow. Her tearful eyes made it difficult for her to see the road ahead, and she swayed and fell out of the open window.
"No—!" Quan Zeyu threw himself onto the screen, but he couldn't stop the tragedy that had already happened. He could only kneel on the ground and slap his face repeatedly: "I'm such a beast! How could I not know anything! That day was Yan Yan's birthday, but it was also Quan Zhi's birthday! She was so pitiful, and she died all alone!"
"No, I must go and beg Miss Song Mian again, beg Miss Song Mian to help us see Quan Zhi one more time!" Quan Feng wiped his red eyes.
Quan He glanced at his phone: "I just sent my bodyguards to find Song Mian. They said the Fu family is waiting for her outside her funeral shop, seemingly trying to extort money from her and demand the patents left by Quan Zhi..."
"The patent for Q10 should not belong to the Fu family. Let's go to the funeral shop!" Quan Feng said, then pulled his two younger brothers and quickly headed to Song Mian's funeral shop.
Song Mian took Quan Zhi back to the funeral clothing shop.
As soon as Song Mian stepped into the funeral clothing shop, she saw a figure dart out from the side.
"Boss Song, you've really kept us waiting." Fu Cheng looked at Song Mian with a half-smile, a dangerous glint flashing in his eyes.
Song Mian then realized that Fu Cheng was holding a small fruit knife in his hand and pointing it at her fiercely.
Her heart pounded uncontrollably, but Song Mian maintained an absolutely calm expression: "Fu Cheng, why aren't you home yet? It's getting late, you should go home quickly, otherwise your parents will be worried about you."
Fu Cheng, a far cry from the docile demeanor he had when he first met Song Mian, now had a dangerous glint in his eyes as he coldly warned her, "Stop grinning at me like that. Song Mian, I've been so kind to you before, but you've never taken it. Now, my whole family has searched your house thoroughly, but we haven't found the original documents for the research patents that Quan Zhi left behind!"
Looking at Fu Cheng's fierce expression, Song Mian saw through his thoughts at a glance: "So, the reason you were so nice to me before wasn't really for Quan Zhi, but to take the patent away from me?"
Song Mian finally understood why Fu Cheng insisted on following her after she left the Fu family, all the way to her funeral clothing shop.
She wondered why the Fu family had been so inactive until she got involved in the matter, at which point they suddenly became very agitated.
It now appears that the Fu family came prepared.
At this moment, Fu's parents also came over from the direction of the backyard.
Smiling, Fu's parents didn't seem as scary as Fu Cheng.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Song, our son is a bit impulsive sometimes. But don't worry, as long as you cooperate with us and hand over the original patent documents, we can guarantee you won't be harmed in any way." Mr. Fu spoke gently, but in reality, he was looking at Song Mian with greedy eyes.
Song Mian's heart tightened, and she suddenly realized, "So it seems that Quan Yanyan wasn't lying all along. At least her assessment of everyone in your Fu family was correct."
At first, Song Mian thought that Quan Yanyan had taken advantage of Quan Zhi, so Quan Yanyan's words were completely unbelievable.
But now it seems that things are not as simple as she imagined.
Quan Yanyan did hide a lot, but her assessment of the Fu family was actually correct; everyone in the Fu family was indeed a vampire.
“Mr. Song, actually, the three of us are the most pitiful. When we raised Yan Yan, we planned to have this daughter lead our whole family to a better life. But we never expected that that brat would be so ungrateful. After trying to climb the social ladder, she completely ignored us. Our family couldn’t take such a blow. We were forced to set our sights on Quan Zhi.”
Fu's mother looked troubled, but what she actually said sent chills down one's spine.
Song Mian listened quietly, anxiously observing Quan Zhi's reaction beside her.
Quan Zhi's expression remained unchanged, showing no surprise at the behavior of the Fu family of three.
Clearly, Quan Zhi had already remembered everything while she was at the Quan family's house, which is why she was so calm in the face of the Fu family's cold words.
However, although Quan Zhi didn't care about the Fu family, she was very worried about Song Mian.
After circling around Song Mian several times without finding a suitable opportunity to save her, Quan Zhi had no choice but to ask Lin Jiaojiao and Meng Yi for help.
"Miss Lin, Mr. Meng, it's all my fault that the young boss is in danger. How can we help him get out of this predicament?" Quan Zhi was extremely anxious, her eyes filled with guilt. "If only I could possess their bodies, I would definitely beat them to a pulp!"
"Actually, a ghost like you who died unjustly has a very high status in the ghost world. If you are willing to give up all the offerings and ghost money under your command as taxes, I can help you have about ten minutes of possession."
As Meng Yi spoke, he took out an electronic device that looked like a mobile phone from his pocket, entered Quan Zhi's name, and carefully calculated: "Not only that, because you died tragically, as long as you are willing to be reincarnated, it will be a good thing for the ghost realm. If you are willing to contribute all the offerings and be reincarnated, I can help you get a back door."
