"Don’t lie to , I saw everything."
"There’s sothing off at ho, you must have felt it too, right? It’s not just my hallucination from ntal stress, right?"
Several tis, Sang Yang almost irritably wanted to interrupt Su Li, but she spoke quickly, babbling on, leaving him no chance to cut in.
Even though Su Li was scared, she still looked at her husband with encouraging and loving eyes, "Don’t worry, the masters will surely have a solution."
The master with two whiskers stroked his chin and confidently replied, "Of course, it’s just that..."
His thumb and index finger rubbed together, the aning was clear.
Su Li understood and directly reached into Sang Yang’s briefcase to take out a checkbook, "My husband owns a company, we have enough money to thank the masters."
Today, Sang Yang was still caught up in the panic of Su Li noticing his strange behavior, and before he realized it, Su Li had taken his wallet and bank card.
"If it’s not enough, we still have the house and the car... as long as you can save him..."
The few sneaky-looking masters couldn’t hide their delight.
"Alright then, we won’t let you down."
To ensure the masters were more dedicated, a mont of impulse led to one million being transferred out of Sang Yang’s bank account.
Coming to his senses, Sang Yang was furious, not even the fiercest female ghost could compare to the agony of his dwindling wallet, especially when there wasn’t any ghostly thing to begin with.
"What nonsense!" Sang Yang dragged them to the police station.
But they were released in less than half an hour.
The "conn" Sang Yang thought he had caught turned out to be genuine Taoists, verified by the Taoist Association.
The million Su Li transferred was considered a legitimate transaction and couldn’t be recovered.
Filled with rage, Sang Yang even had to apologize to the "conn," quite a humiliating experience.
---------
Rewind to half an hour earlier when Sang Yang was dragging the masters away, curious neighbors were rushing over to see what was happening.
Le Zilan was the first to arrive; she was also the most concerned.
After all, she lived next door.
"Ah Qiu, don’t you think your husband seems to be... raising a ghost..."
As soon as Le Zilan spoke, everyone fell silent, their expressions varied.
Su Li: "I have so suspicions too... My husband had a beloved girlfriend who died, never found her body."
"Ah..." Everyone felt both horrified and scared.
Ghost stories, whether one believes in them or not, naturally evoke so fear of the unknown.
As night fell, the onlookers couldn’t stay long and quickly dispersed.
Standing in front of the Sang Family’s house always felt especially chilly.
Le Zilan quickly skipped ho, not daring to linger.
Once the last ray of sunlight was devoured by the darkness, the entire villa district fell silent, with all lit houses tightly shut.
Sang Yang fiddled with his phone, looking at Yu Qiu’s na on the lit screen.
Veins popped on his hand, tightening and loosening, the call was never made.
In frustration, he kicked the nearby concrete step, unable to vent his anger.
The phone vibrated with a ssage from Su Li.
"I’m a bit scared, I’m going back to Daddy’s house."
Returning ho, the house was engulfed in darkness; Yu Qiu was indeed not there.
Sang Yang, rembering the previous project, suppressed his anger and replied to Su Li’s ssage.
"I’ll co get you tomorrow, and I’ll visit Daddy."
As Sang Yang absentmindedly stepped into the house, the dark room suddenly lit up.
A black-haired woman in a white dress sat on the sofa with her back to the door, languidly saying, "You’re back."
Sang Yang’s heart clenched, pupils contracted, "Are you crazy?"
The woman, with a hint of sarcasm, said, "Have you fallen in love with her?"
Sang Yang paused, "How... could I..."
The woman’s voice suddenly sharpened, "But you hesitated just now, you hesitated..."
"You fell in love with her, her face so similar to mine, yet much more beautiful... how could you not love her..."
The woman turned sideways, revealing half a shocking face with ridges and hollows like centipedes.
"You promised , you promised ."
Sang Yang hesitated, "Ah Qiu... she’s actually innocent, we..."
"Didn’t I say you’re in love with her? Feeling sorry?" The woman swept a teacup onto the floor furiously, "Don’t forget, it was your idea, your plan. And... you killed soone..."
"I did it for you."
"That’s why we’re the sa, birds of a feather, no one can shake the other off."
"Why should Yuan Yuqiu be so lucky, everything she has should be mine..." The woman’s tone softened, slinking over like a fem fatale, clinging to his shoulder, whispering into his ear, "If it were , everything of the Yuan Family would be yours... including ..."
Under the light, the other half of the woman’s face was revealed, a jade-like face quite similar to Su Li’s present body.
"Don’t stir things up anymore, she might have already sensed sothing."
"If she had any sense, she wouldn’t be so obedient to you... wouldn’t believe sharing a room with was an illusion or ghost..."
The woman’s sarcastic, triumphant laughter echoed in the air, yet Sang Yang felt a heavy stone weighing on him.
He wanted to say: because of love, one becos blind.
Ah Qiu only loves him, it’s not stupidity, it’s not stupidity....
Perhaps sensing Sang Yang’s wavering, the woman’s voice turned cruel and threatening, "If you dare back out, I’ll tell your precious Ah Qiu the truth tomorrow..."
"You..."
"You used to say you loved , did so much for ... continue to love ."
-----------
Su Li knew nothing of what transpired in the villa.
At the Yuan Family, Nanny He had left but recomnded a new housekeeper about the sa age as Yuan Guowei.
It seed the new housekeeper got along well with Yuan Guowei.
When Su Li arrived, Yuan Guowei and Aunt Yuan were one sitting, one standing.
One was reciting poetry, the other endlessly praising.
"Sir, your reciting is beautiful."
Yuan Guowei looked very pleased by the complints, "To recite beautifully, it’s still my wife who does it best. Her voice is pleasing, bringing poetry to life."
"My wife can be said to be perfect, not only does she recite poetry beautifully, but she also has..."
"Daddy."
Su Li’s words disrupted the two, one showed delight, the other had a peculiar expression.
Su Li caught Aunt Yuan’s oddity, but it went unnoticed by Yuan Guowei.
Su Li gave her a second glance, Yuan Guowei quickly explained, "Recomnded by Nanny He, very quick and diligent."
