Chapter 204 So Painful
"There's something in front of her that we can't see!"
Xu Yan got goosebumps all of a sudden. "Hey, at this critical moment, please don't joke around!"
"Who has time to joke with you?"
Bai Youyou stood in front of the female ghost and slowly squatted down. Although her face was cold, she still softened her tone and said, "Let me see what you really look like."
The female ghost was stunned for a moment, she knew that the person in front of her was a master.
The female ghost shrank, her resentment enveloping her like a thick mist.
She refused to reveal her true face, and was deeply obsessed, as if only by maintaining this horrible appearance could she vent the tremendous hatred in her heart.
Bai Youyou looked at her quietly, there was no fear in her eyes, only deep pity.
She understood that this female ghost must have felt deeply wronged.
Bai Youyou sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness and sadness in her tone, "You can't get out of this situation like this."
The female ghost shuddered, as if these words had touched the softest part of her heart.
She slowly raised her head, and a hint of confusion flashed across her resentful eyes.
Bai Youyou continued, "Tell me, who are you? Why are you in so much pain?"
The female ghost hesitated for a moment, but ultimately couldn't resist Bai Youyou's gentle yet determined gaze.
The resentment in her body gradually dissipated, revealing her original appearance.
It was a beautiful and gentle face, completely different from the fierce and terrifying one just now.
However, this face was filled with sadness and despair, as if it had experienced the most cruel torture in the world.
When Bai Youyou saw the true appearance of the female ghost, her heart was shocked.
She saw the various experiences the female ghost had in her lifetime.
Her name is Li Wan, and what shocked Bai Youyou was that this house was actually her former home.
Bai Youyou turned around and walked up to the dying man, looking down at him coldly.
This man was none other than Li Wan's husband, Hu Jun. He was a second-generation rich man with a lot of money. He originally had only one daughter, and later had this son in his old age. Therefore, he doted on her without limits, which led him to commit such a heinous murder.
He appears polite on the surface, but in reality he is a twisted pervert.
He is also the younger brother of Shen Xiaoyu's mother and Shen Xiaoyu's uncle.
Li Wan is a pretty flight attendant who met Hu Jun, who was traveling, during a flight.
Hu Jun fell in love with Li Wan at first sight and began to pursue her vigorously.
The gifts he gave ranged from limited edition bags to top-notch jewelry.
He took Li Wan to a Michelin restaurant for dinner and booked the entire amusement park just to make her smile.
Li Wan was a little hesitant at first.
She was a little overwhelmed by Hu Jun's enthusiasm.
But Hu Jun's persistence and sincerity finally moved her.
Li Wan accepted his proposal.
The wedding was luxurious and romantic, making others envious.
Half a year after marriage, Li Wan became pregnant.
Hu Jun was overjoyed and became even more considerate to Li Wan.
He prepared delicious food for Li Wan in different ways every day, took her for walks and told her stories.
He even turned down many business opportunities just to spend more time with Li Wan.
After his daughter was born, Hu Jun poured all his love into this little life.
He watched his daughter grow up day by day, and his heart was filled with happiness and satisfaction.
On the day of his daughter's full moon, Hu Jun held a banquet in the most luxurious hotel in Jiangcheng.
Friends and relatives came to congratulate and the scene was very lively.
Shen Xiaoyu, Hu Jun's niece, also came.
She was wearing a bright red dress and had exquisite makeup on, which made her look particularly dazzling.
She walked up to Hu Jun and congratulated him with a fake smile: "Congratulations, uncle, on the birth of your daughter."
Hu Jun smiled and thanked him: "Thank you, Xiaoyu, come, have a drink."
Shen Xiaoyu picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and then glanced casually at the child lying in the stroller.
She pretended to be surprised and said, "How come this child... doesn't look like you at all?"
The smile on Hu Jun's face froze.
He looked carefully at his daughter, then at himself.
My daughter's nose and eyes do look more like Li Wan's.
Shen Xiaoyu continued, "Look at this child's eyes. They are big and round. They are nothing like your narrow eyes."
There was a hint of sarcasm in her tone, like a needle that pierced Hu Jun's heart.
Hu Jun forced a smile and said, "He's just a kid. He hasn't grown up yet."
Shen Xiaoyu seemed not to understand what he said and continued, "And this nose, it's tall and straight, and it doesn't look like your flat nose at all."
Every word she said was like a knife, cutting wounds in Hu Jun's heart.
The guests around heard what Shen Xiaoyu said and looked at Hu Jun.
Hu Jun felt his face burning, as if he had been slapped in the face.
He suppressed his anger and said to Shen Xiaoyu: "Xiaoyu, you've drunk too much."
However, Shen Xiaoyu seemed to be deliberately going against him and said loudly: "I'm not drunk! I'm telling the truth! This child doesn't look like you at all! Could it be..."
She paused deliberately, then looked at Li Wan meaningfully.
Li Wan's face also turned ugly.
She picked up her daughter, glared at Shen Xiaoyu, and said, "Shen Xiaoyu, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."
Shen Xiaoyu smiled nonchalantly, and seemed to mutter, but she made sure everyone could hear her voice, "It's true that it doesn't look like that. I'm not saying anything nonsense."
Li Wan's eyes turned red with anger. He pointed at the door and yelled at Shen Xiaoyu, "You are not welcome here. Get out of here."
Shen Xiaoyu sneered disdainfully, "My uncle paid for this place, so I can stay here if I want. Don't think that you have ascended to heaven just because you are with my uncle. A wild chicken is a wild chicken, and you still want to become a phoenix."
Li Wan was so angry that she was shaking while holding her child, but her husband said nothing and let her and the child be hurt by such rumors.
"Hubby, please say something..."
How she wished at this moment that her husband would stand firmly in front of her.
But Hu Jun just glanced at her and said nothing. Li Wan's heart felt like it fell into an ice cellar.
This full-moon party ended in an unpleasant way because of Shen Xiaoyu's words.
After Hu Jun returned home, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Shen Xiaoyu's words made sense.
He began to doubt his daughter's background.
His attitude towards Li Wan also underwent a huge change.
From the previous gentleness and consideration, it has turned into indifference and suspicion now.
Li Wan noticed Hu Jun's changes and felt very wronged and sad.
She didn't understand why her once happy family had become like this.
She tried to communicate with Hu Jun, but Hu Jun didn't listen to her explanation at all.
He was certain that his daughter was not his and was filled with resentment towards Li Wan.
Shen Xiaoyu's words were like a seed that took root and sprouted in Hu Jun's heart, growing into a towering tree, covering the sky and blocking out all the light.
He began to observe his daughter unconsciously, looking for similarities between him and himself.
His daughter's eyes were big, round, clear and bright, like two black grapes, while his eyes were long and thin, with the tails slightly upturned.
