Bai Tingxue's head, which had been flattened by the fall, gradually became fuller as if it had been inflated, and her face returned to its previous tender and beautiful appearance.
Although his complexion was still a little pale, unlike that of normal people, it was much better than before.
The two stopped and looked at each other in surprise. They soon noticed the changes in their own expressions from each other, and then looked around together.
Bai Tingxue only then noticed the figure of Taoist Bai. Her eyes were red and she murmured unconsciously, "Grandpa Bai——"
Taoist Bai didn’t have the ability to see ghosts and couldn’t see anything, but at this moment he seemed to have some kind of feeling, and his nose felt a little sour.
Seeing this, Wei Mian chanted a spell and wiped his eyes.
At that moment, the scene in front of Taoist Bai changed. When he opened his eyes again, he saw two people standing in the middle of the living room. Wasn’t one of them the girl Tingxue that he had been worried about?
Taoist Bai wanted to say something, but after moving his lips for a long time, all that came out was a helpless sigh.
"You kid, why are you so depressed?"
Bai Tingxue's eyes became even redder. Yes, why could she be so depressed? She only found out later that she could go to the police station and report them for such a thing, or make a big deal out of it and use the pressure of public opinion to confront her family.
At worst, I can leave this family and find a way to pay for college myself. If all else fails, there are student loans. There is always a way.
But she chose the most irreversible option, and she was still under the control of her family even after her death.
Wei Mian suddenly asked, "Do you need help breaking off your engagement?"
Although she asked this, she was just asking because she could see that the two had a good relationship and did not have the kind of resentment that people thought was caused by being forcibly tied together.
On the contrary, both of them care about each other very much.
Sure enough, after hearing Wei Mian's words, Bai Tingxue and the boy exchanged a glance, then quickly looked away. "No, no need..."
Taoist Bai was also a smart man and immediately understood why she said that. He looked at the boy carefully and felt that the Bai family had hit a lucky jackpot this time.
After Taoist Bai and Bai Tingxue finished reminiscing about the past, the three of them left immediately. He was extremely angry about what Bai Cong had done. He was obviously his closest relative, but he had lost his humanity for the sake of profit.
Bai's parents are not good people either. They knew what their son had done but pretended to be blind and even added fuel to the fire.
They all deserved the retribution they received.
Parents who have been partial to their daughters since childhood have always treated their daughters as tools to exchange for betrothal gifts. They may develop some feelings for their children in the process of raising them, but they do not care about them as much as they do about their sons.
When their interests conflict, he chooses to stand by his son without hesitation.
As for that selfish brother and sister-in-law, there are obviously many ways to make money, but Bai Cong chose the one that is the most convenient and inhumane for himself.
Wei Mian has already seen their future from the two of them.
A year later, Bai Cong and his wife will die suddenly. Since they used their sister's betrothal money, the retribution will eventually come.
As for Bai's parents, what could be more painful than losing their beloved son at such an old age? Spending the rest of their lives in old age without anyone to rely on and a miserable old age is the punishment for them.
Liang Haoran has always been by his master's side. He has been doing this for the past few years, but he still feels that he will never be able to learn enough from his master.
However, Wei Mian felt that once his strength reached a certain level, he would ask him what he would do every time he dealt with something.
Liang Haoran sometimes feels that his approach is the same as his master's, and sometimes it is completely different.
For example, if he were to handle the matter of Bai Tingxue, he might help the two to cancel their engagement and let them reincarnate separately, but he felt that doing so was not perfect.
In his imagination, after doing this, the boy would appear in his dreams to his family, and his family would come to the Bai family to make trouble and ask for the betrothal money back.
Bai Cong and his wife will definitely be worried about this money, and the issue of arranging a ghost marriage for his sister for profit will be resolved.
"There's nothing wrong with you doing this, but you have to consider two other aspects."
On the way back, Wei Mian patiently reviewed what happened today to Liang Haoran. Her voice was soft and unhurried.
"Bai Tingxue's suicide can be said to have been orchestrated by Bai Cong. He was worried that his sister wouldn't get into a good university, so he once harmed her during the college entrance exam, forcing her to take the exam despite being ill. Bai Tingxue's score was much lower than usual."
"That's why Bai Cong used her poor college entrance exam results as an excuse to brainwash Bai Tingxue's parents into getting married quickly in exchange for a large betrothal gift. The Bai parents acquiesced."
"Later, Bai Cong arranged a blind date for Bai Tingxue, which led to a falling out between the two. Bai Tingxue then realized how her family treated her, and provoked by Bai Cong's words, she decided to jump off the building."
"There's a causal relationship behind this matter. Of course, no one in the Bai family is innocent in this matter, but the most despicable one is still Bai Cong."
"He was able to arrange a posthumous marriage for Bai Tingxue five days after her death, which shows he had already made preparations beforehand. Some things don't bear scrutiny. There's a good saying online: 'The more you think about it, the more terrifying it is.'"
Liang Haoran frowned and thought. He had just noticed that Bai Tingxue's death was related to Bai Cong, but he didn't know it was such a reason.
The master can always make inferences through some clues or facial features, so what he calculates is more comprehensive than his. Once you know the whole picture, your judgment will be much more objective.
Every time he thought he was very powerful, he would find that his master was even more powerful than him, forcing him to suppress his budding pride.
There is always someone better than you, and he still has more room for improvement. Life never stops, and learning never ends.

Tianji Fortune Telling Shop was renovated some time ago. During this renovation, they also bought another office on the same floor. In addition to the original reception room, they also added three smaller reception rooms.
In addition to Master Wei, the fortune-telling house has added three more masters.
I heard that one of them is the youngest son of Zheng Kaiyuan, the head of the Zheng family, a family of Taoist priests.
He studied under the late Master Zheng since childhood, and later studied under Master Wei for several years. Now he can take orders independently and is good at catching evil spirits and exorcising them.
The second one is Master Liang, Master Wei’s apprentice.
The young and promising man is good at the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, Feng Shui and divination. No matter whether it is the Feng Shui of a yang house or a cemetery, everyone who has consulted him praises it and says that he is like a teacher.
The third master’s surname was Peng, and everyone respectfully called him Master Peng.
I heard that he is a Feng Shui master from Hong Kong City, who has been on the Feng Shui rankings for two consecutive years. He is also the official Feng Shui master of the Li family, the richest family in Hong Kong City. He only comes to the inland very occasionally.
This person is good at all kinds of Feng Shui formations for seeking wealth. Just look at the fact that the Li family's business has been thriving in recent years. This Feng Shui master is quite capable.
Compared with these three Feng Shui masters, Master Wei, the head of the family, is even harder to see.
