His face was cold and menacing. We've already argued about this several times, he doesn't want to back down, but there's simply no room for compromise. Arguing further is pointless.I took a deep breat...My brother rarely shows such a serious and cold expression.

"What's up, hey... it's the middle of the night..." I reminded him.

“Let’s get going right away and head back tonight. Lin Yanhuan has nothing important to do there, so the sooner we leave, the better. He’s a big spender, after all.” My brother winked at me discreetly.

His words were clearly meant to be serious. He must have thought of something terrible, otherwise he wouldn't have such a grim expression.

He drove for a hundred kilometers before he slowly said to me, "Xiao Qiao, I just realized something."

"What's wrong Looking at you, I don't even dare to ask."

"This is just my guess, you listen to see if it makes sense." He pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "I suspect... Grandpa used that tower to absorb the life force of souls, and then replenish Grandma."

I wasn't too surprised when I saw Grandfather holding a pagoda and with Grandmother's spirit appearing behind us today; it brought up a question for me.

——In the middle of the night, what was the old man taking the tower out for

Thinking back to the last time, my great-grandmother said, “Maybe we have broken too many taboos and will be wiped out together”

What is the matter with the red lines on my cousin Chen Suixin's neck Why does she become possessed and have a spirit leave her body when she takes off the red lines, with her head floating around randomly

"You thought of it too, right Qiao" My brother's face was grim. "Perhaps that tower absorbs the life essence of women around it to replenish Grandma. Otherwise—have you ever seen a ghost like Grandma So bright-eyed and radiant, smiling serenely, not only hasn't she become listless but she’s even emotionally rich, just like a living person"

I nodded silently.

My brother slapped the steering wheel, and the horn blared a piercing shriek on the highway. He growled, "So I told you! Everything about offending the Ghost King, or our family's yin-yang work causing women to die young, is a lie! The truth is this tower! It's absorbed too much of the life essence from surrounding women."

He was so angry his teeth were grinding, suspecting that even my mom had her life force sucked away when she came to live in the old house. As for me, I've lived in the old house since birth, but I'm pure Yin from my four pillars, so it doesn't matter if I get sucked a little.

"I never expected Grandpa to be like this, willing to give up his descendants for his wife." My brother scoffed.

"Calm down, bro... If it were me, I'd do the same." I soothed my brother.

My brother glanced at me: “You’re remarkably calm. Aren’t you angry”

To fall in love with someone is to hate oneself so much that one would willingly jump into a fire and be burned to ashes, who would still care about others.

The last drama club performance was a great success. All the tickets were sold out, and they made tens of thousands of yuan. After deducting all expenses, the president gave each member a red envelope and also invited the performers to a celebratory meal.

I also received the invitation, it was still Lily who came to call me personally. I'm not really interested in the dinner party, but since Lily is now with Mu Yunliang, maybe I can get some useful information from her.

In a private room at a restaurant near the school, four tables were occupied by people. Lily dragged me to sit beside her, and our conversation kept circling back to Mu Yunliang.

She kept asking me about Mu Yunliang's childhood, but I don't even remember anything about his childhood!

Lily smiled sweetly and explained, "I'm sorry, Xiao Qiao. Because I want to introduce him to my parents, I wanted to learn more about him from you."

Meeting parents! No way! Is this the rhythm of getting engaged

Lily smiled and explained, “Xiao Qiao, I’m a year older than you, and I’ll be 20 soon. In this society, if girls don't get married early, there's a high chance they'll become leftover women. I plan to introduce him to my parents in a while. If everything goes well, I'll go meet his parents next. Then the two families will have a meal together, and we'll get our marriage license first. I'll hold the wedding banquet when I graduate.”

I was stunned: "Lily, are you sure Getting married at 20 He is—"

Mu Yunliang, he's a monster wearing human skin! We don't even know what's under that skin yet!

Lily spoke of Mu Yunliang with a look of adoration and admiration in her eyes. It seemed that Mu Yunliang not only had Lily completely submissive in bed, but he also had complete control over her heart.

I frowned, observing Lily's words and actions carefully. Her complexion seemed normal, however, when the food arrived, some of her gestures caught my attention.

There was a small basin on the table for collecting tea water, but she ignored it completely. She raised her hand and spilled wine at her feet. There was an empty chair behind her, and she hung her bag on the back of the chair, but she wouldn't allow others to put anything on the chair.

The more I watched, the more nervous I became. Her actions made me think she was like a ghost-raiser.

Li Li should be completely clueless about Taoism. Could these be taught by Mu Yun Liang

For example, spilling the water from a cup on the ground, leaving an empty set of bowls and chopsticks, or leaving an empty seat...

However, I didn't feel any ghostly presence, and the chair behind her was perfectly normal.

Considering her relationship with Mu Yunliang now, I had to be wary of her, so I secretly took a picture and sent it to my brother.

My brother quickly replied, saying he'd drive over right away and that I should try to keep hold of Lily and follow her!

After dinner, Lily had a little drink and took out her phone to call for her boyfriend to pick her up. My heart was pounding. Could Mu Yunliang be about to appear before me openly

Last time he kidnapped me, he inexplicably said he wanted to "help" me. He pulled out half of my unborn child's soul and transferred it into a doll... He performed the peeling and soul-binding ritual on Mu Yunliang. Was that also just to "help" me

I don't believe a cruel and perverted person like this could possibly have any good intentions.

“……Ugh, I guess I'll just take a taxi back.” Lily hung up the phone, pouted and said coquettishly, “It’s so annoying, he’s out of town and can’t pick me up… Oh well, if we got married sooner and bought a place here it would be so convenient…”

She mumbled to herself as she swayed and went to grab her handbag. I saw her say to the empty seat, "Let's go."

This is definitely abnormal! These actions are typical of someone who raises ghosts, especially young ghosts. It's possible that it was taught to her by that imposter Mu Yunliang.

But there are no ghosts here, could it be that she didn't raise it successfully

I followed closely behind her as we walked out of the street. After she took a taxi, my brother's car immediately pulled up in front of me.

I pulled open the backseat and saw Jiang Qiyun sitting in it.

"How did you get here" I was rather surprised.

Jiang Qiyun let out a cold snort: "Nonsense, do you think I'd let the two of you face Mu Yunliang alone You're no match for him, and besides, his target is still your belly!"

"Whoa, guys, look how she got out of the car... crap, isn't that Situ Lin!" are they so lenient only towards you" My sister frowned slightly.Well, this question..."Maybe he's worried I miss home," I replied.Even if you miss home, listening to your description, it sounds like...
