Shocking! The master of metaphysics is actually the ancestor of ghosts and monsters!

She swallowed hard, her voice softening, "Dad, I know I was wrong."

Then, as if pleading, she said, "But Mom hasn't lived with us for so many years, and we haven't spent much time together lately. Now that she's been arrested, what will happen to her?"

"This isn't good for our reputation either..."

Ye Feifei's voice softened, she lowered her stance and began to act coquettishly.

"Dad~"

Ye Feifei's attitude changed, and she stopped being willful, which made Ye Mingcheng's tone also become better.

"Feifei, your mother is only locked up for a few days. She'll be out in less than two weeks."

He also wanted to make Lin Miaolian suffer a bit, since her previous words had been too presumptuous.

Ye Feifei thought of Lin Miaolian and still wanted Ye Mingcheng to use his connections to get Lin Miaolian out as soon as possible. "Those few days inside are very difficult to get through. My mother is so frail. After she goes in, how will she face people when she comes out?"

Ye Mingcheng interrupted her directly, "Alright, Feifei, it's time for your mother to suffer a bit. I've always protected her too well."

“Dad, if Mom gets involved in these things, people in the industry will laugh at us. If I go out, people will laugh at me too. What will happen to our reputation? I heard that the stock price has also dropped.”

Knowing that her persuasion was futile, Ye Feifei started talking about stocks. She didn't believe that her father cared about neither her mother nor their current business.

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone. Ye Mingcheng looked at the reports and data on the table and fell into deep thought.

After a long pause, he said, "I will consider this matter."

After saying that, the call was disconnected.

Ye Feifei looked at her phone and then threw it away violently.

I wonder which little bastard betrayed my mother.

As a result, she was ridiculed by her classmates, and now all the talk at school is about her mother going to jail.

The servants stood there, trembling with fear.

They dared not move an inch, nor take a single step.

Not to mention speaking, everyone remained silent.

Ye Feifei vented her anger and looked at the servants around her with a bad expression.

The servants all lowered their heads.

"What are you hiding for! Get back to setting things up!!"

The servants scattered immediately after she yelled at them, none of them daring to provoke Ye Feifei.

Ye Feifei plans to hold a birthday party ahead of schedule and invite influential people from the school to come and give her advice. Perhaps someone will be willing to help her get Lin Miaolian out of trouble.

If Lin Miaolian spends half a month in jail, her reputation will be ruined, and she'll probably never be able to shake off that stain.

Now we need to find a way to get out. He'll only be in there for three days, and there'll still be a chance to explain, even if he's been framed.

Three days is not a long time, and no one will say anything afterward.

Thinking of this, Ye Feifei felt even angrier. Her mother was really something, not caring about her family at all while she was away.

But who exactly did she offend?

Lin Miaolian narrowed her eyes, a hint of malice flashing in them. She was going to find out who it was, and then she wouldn't hold back.

……

……

As soon as Jing Li arrived at the hospital, she went to look for Lu Fuqing, but when she opened the ward door, Lu Fuqing was nowhere to be seen.

However, Old Master Lu has also disappeared without a trace.

She then went to find Jiang Shaoxing, but was told that he had been transferred to another position.

Jing Li: "???"

She's still recovering from her illness, how did she get transferred to another job?

She had intended to consult the oracle, but found that her body was in excruciating pain, so she gave up. Next, she would save some energy to consult the oracle for other people, in order to accumulate merit for the sickly one.

She hadn't walked more than a few steps down the corridor when a group of people gathered around her.

"Miss Liang."

The voice conveyed surprise.

It's Xiaoya.

Jingli looked up and saw that Xiaoya's face was no longer haggard. Although she was still tired, her mental state seemed to have improved a lot.

Xiaoya hesitated, unable to utter a sound, but her eyes suddenly reddened.

Jing Li turned around. "Let's go."

I happen to have something to ask her.

The two returned to the place where they had talked before. It was almost evening, and there were few people around, and the cameras couldn't see them.

Having learned from past experiences, Jing Li now avoids such instruments.

Xiaoya's eyes were red, and she didn't say anything for several minutes.

Jingli didn't urge her, but quietly watched her.

After a while, Xiaoya spoke quietly, "They're dead."

Xiaoya's eyes were filled with joy.

It also seemed like a great weight had been lifted off their shoulders.

“My adoptive mother knew perfectly well that my adoptive father had ulterior motives towards me, but she still pushed me away because she couldn’t control him. She was afraid that it would be better for him to stay at home with someone she could control than for him to go out and find someone else to mess around with.”

As she continued, Xiaoya's tone shifted from calm to agitated, "If that man was a repeat offender, then she was an accomplice. They adopted me simply to satisfy that man's physical needs. I was... I was..."

She paused towards the end of her sentence.

Her eyes were bloodshot, and it seemed as if she had used all her strength to slowly utter those words, "I was raped, it started when they adopted me..."

She looked up, and her voice stopped.

She wiped away the tears that had uncontrollably streamed down her face from the corners of her eyes, and then quietly asked Jingli, "Miss Liang, don't you want to know why I'm telling you all this?"

Jing Li did not answer, but watched her like an observer without responding.

Xiaoya thought she would see sympathy, shock, or surprise in Jingli's eyes, or perhaps a strange look.

But there was nothing there, only calm.

This situation is truly astonishing.

The girl said nothing, yet it was as if she had said everything, as if everything was almost transparent to her.

Xiaoya lowered her head. "They're dead, all of them are dead!"

“When I was adopted, I was a child. I was so scared that I didn’t dare to resist. I tried to call the police like other people, but it was no use. I had no evidence, and after I called the police, I got a beating. I was too cowardly and thought that my life would just pass by like this, so I let it go until I met Mrs. Lu.”

"She was so gentle, so beautiful, so kind. I regret that I was not her child."

"After learning about her husband's affairs, I suddenly became courageous. I wanted to kill my adoptive parents and then use this worthless life to try to get a chance from Ye Jiabo, a chance to help Mrs. Lu turn her life around."

"Her husband is a complete ingrate. How can there be so many bad people in the world..."

Xiaoya's emotions gradually calmed down, and Jingli's calm demeanor made her speak much more naturally.

From initial restraint to naturalness.

After she finished speaking, seeing that Jingli still showed no intention of speaking, she slowly opened her mouth.

"Those scumbags died because of that talisman."
