"Zhong Yan, my daughter's current state is partly due to your efforts." Seeing her unyielding attitude, Lin Yang immediately prepared to turn hostile: "If you heal her, I will forgive and forget about it."
"Mr. Lin, is this your way of being polite before resorting to force?" Zhong Yan remained calm and composed, as if his attitude had no effect on her.
In reality, his eyes betrayed an undisguised disgust.
Lin Yang felt somewhat embarrassed by what she said: "Zhong Yan, I treated you with courtesy because you are a young girl with some skills, but if you don't know how to appreciate it, don't blame me for being impolite."
Zhong Yan snorted coldly and strode forward.
Lin Zhengling's situation was entirely of her own making. However, to be fair, it was indeed an undeserved misfortune. If she hadn't been so determined to suffer bad luck and couldn't swallow her anger, and hadn't returned to the lakeside, she wouldn't have been haunted by the water ghost.
Thinking of the words the water ghost spoke before it died, Zhong Yan felt a headache coming on.
Lin Yang made a gesture, and a large group of people immediately rushed in from outside, looking at her warily.
Zhong Yan frowned. Was this someone trying to bully others by abusing their power?
Lin Yang stared coldly at her back. The tension and unease he had shown earlier had long since disappeared. If it weren't for her, his daughter would never have ended up like this.
“Zhong Yan, let me tell you the truth, you have to do this today, whether you like it or not. Besides, that water ghost is looking for you!”
“So you knew.” Zhong Yan turned around and glanced at him. “Mr. Lin, if I’m not mistaken, your daughter felt resentful after returning home, so she secretly ran back to the lakeside at school to burn paper money for that water ghost, hoping it would come and take my life. Unexpectedly, the water ghost was scattered by me earlier, leaving only a wisp of vengeful spirit, which entered Lin Zhengling’s body and used her as its host.”
"You..." Lin Yang was stunned. He never expected that what she said was completely correct. It was clear that when Zhong Yan entered the room just now, she pinched her finger. He could do that kind of pretentious action too.
Looking at his expression, Zhong Yan found it even more amusing: "Mr. Lin, I understand that you want to protect your daughter, but why does it have to be based on a stranger? I don't have time to play these games with you. Besides, let me tell you, being a host body isn't so easy. Over time, Lin Zhengling's consciousness will be gradually devoured, and she will become a monster without any independent consciousness."
