Chapter 102 Past Events
The beginning of the matter was exactly as Uncle Chen said. This woman drugged Uncle Chen because she was greedy for fame and fortune.
This woman was just a hostess in a nightclub. The reason she targeted Uncle Chen was because of another person, Yin Zongyang.
My eyes narrowed when I heard the name.
I was a little surprised to hear his name, but after thinking about it, I felt not surprised.
He really is... involved in all kinds of bad things.
In his early years, Yin Zongyang's external identity was the owner of various entertainment clubs. At that time, Mr. Chen's company did not have the scale of today's national chain, and Mr. Chen was just a small boss with a little money.
Moreover, his wife had just died and his daughter was still young. In the eyes of these women in the entertainment industry, he was a perfect bachelor. Once they got close to him, they would have countless wealth and glory in the future.
This woman is one of those many women.
He can also be said to be the bravest one.
At Yin Zongyang's suggestion, she took the initiative to spend a night with Uncle Chen, and later became pregnant. She then thought that she could gain status by having a son, and thus enter his house.
But Uncle Chen was not as easy to control as she imagined, nor did he care about the child as much as she imagined.
Mr. Chen didn't even want this child who was plotted against, let alone want her.
"My daughter just had a minor illness. If she were in the city, she would just need to go to the hospital, take some antipyretics, and get an IV drip for a few days and she would be fine. But in that remote place, there is no hospital or doctor. Those ignorant people even said that she was infected by some evil spirit and wanted to burn her to death! She was only 5 years old! She died in my arms because she couldn't get treatment!"
Blood and tears flowed from the ghost girl's eyes. She pointed at Chen Qingya on the bed with a crazy look on her face: "Why can she go to school safely and enjoy inheriting everything from you when she is your child, while my child must die!"
Father Chen sneered: "Life and death are determined by fate. Your child had an accident. What does it have to do with me? What does it have to do with Guan Qingya? Aren't all of this what you asked for?"
The female ghost seemed to have heard a funny joke: "It has nothing to do with you? I asked for it? Ha...haha...if you hadn't driven us mother and daughter into the deep mountains, how could my child have died before he could get treatment!"
Father Chen continued to sneer, "What do you mean I drove you and your daughter to the mountains and forests? I did tell President Yin that I didn't want you to appear in front of me again, but I only drove you away, not put you under house arrest! What's more, I gave you 500 million yuan in the beginning. Even if you couldn't stay in City X, you could go to a second- or third-tier city and live a carefree life with this money. Can it be said that you have squandered all the 5 million yuan when your child is only 500 years old?"
The ghost girl's resentment was even more turbulent: "You didn't put me under house arrest? You sent me to the mountains, and I had a child with me. How is it different from house arrest if I can't escape from there? Besides, when did you give me 500 million? I didn't expect that besides being cold and selfish, you also have the ability to lie without thinking."
Father Chen: "You took the money and now you don't acknowledge it?"
Female ghost: "You think you're right if I don't pay you? Even if I go to hell, I'll drag you along with me. Oh no! I'll drag your daughter along with me!"
The ghost girl's words ignited the powder keg. Father Chen became furious and the two started arguing again.
……
Father Chen: "A mad woman who is greedy, vain, shameless and spendthrift!"
Female ghost: "A selfish, cold-hearted, stingy, lying old man who forced his own daughter to death!"
The two of them were arguing endlessly, but based on what I just heard, the fact that Chen's father gave 500 million yuan did not seem false, and the fact that the female ghost did not receive the money should also not be false.
I didn’t know when the quarrel would end if it continued like this, so I cast a silencing spell on the female ghost, and she suddenly couldn’t speak even if she wanted to.
When Mr. Chen saw that the female ghost was speechless, he stopped arguing and looked at me in confusion, not understanding why I did this.
I cleared my throat.
"Ahem, it's no use arguing like this, I'll take the initiative to be the mediator." The female ghost looked unconvinced, obviously thinking there was no possibility of mediation, but she couldn't say anything. Although Father Chen stopped talking, his face was still full of mockery and contempt.
"I will ask you questions next, and you just need to answer them. Please don't say anything else."
After they both nodded, I asked Mr. Chen the first question.
"In the beginning, who did you hand over the 500 million you gave to?"
"The money was transferred to her bank card." Father Chen said, looking at the female ghost.
I asked the ghost girl again, "Are you sure you didn't receive the 500 million?"
The female ghost nodded affirmatively.
Father Chen wanted to speak again, but I interrupted him: "Did she tell you the bank card number you transferred the money to?"
It was a long time ago. Father Chen thought for a while before saying, "No, I asked Yin Zongyang for the bank card number. I didn't want to have any contact with this woman anymore, so I asked her boss Yin Zongyang for the bank card number."
I thought to myself, it was exactly as I guessed. Yin Zongyang did not give Chen's father the ghost's bank card number, but he kept the money himself.
After hearing my guess, Mr. Chen finally calmed down.
I didn't need to mediate this time. Once the suspicion was cleared, the next thing would follow naturally. Father Chen and the ghost girl were finally able to calm down and have a good look at the specific circumstances of that year.
After Yin Zongyang embezzled the money, he sent the female ghost who had just given birth to a deep mountain in City X. He also pushed all the blame on Chen's father, saying that Chen's father had instructed him to do so.
But in fact, Chen's father just told Yin Zongyang that he wanted some money from her and sent her away.
There is a 100-meter-long zipline on the only way leading down the mountain, which crosses a cliff. How could a woman with a young child escape?
The woman wanted to take her child out of the mountains to the city to see a doctor, but the child died of a fever on the way. The woman got lost in the mountains and couldn't find her way out, so she also died in the mountains.
After the death of the female ghost, she was still trapped in her obsession and unable to return to the underworld. The reason why she was able to become a ghost fetus was actually because of a Taoist priest.
The female ghost said that she had been wandering in the land of death for decades. Some time ago, a Taoist priest used her old things to summon her soul, and said that he knew she was still haunted by resentment and could help her get revenge.
The Taoist then extracted most of her soul power and wrapped her into something unknown. By the time she regained consciousness, she was already inside Chen Qingya's body.
After learning that Chen Qingya was the daughter of her enemy, she began to absorb Chen Qingya's yang energy and grew inside her body, intending to kill Chen Qingya.
The truth of what happened back then was pieced together, and the female ghost's aura increased several times.
"Yin Zongyang!"
She said viciously: "Let me go, I want to seek revenge on him! He killed me and my daughter, it was him!"
I shook my head helplessly.
"Why do you think that after you've been dead for so many years, someone suddenly showed up to help you and said he would avenge you? He knew you died in the mountains and was even able to get your belongings. Who else do you think could be that person?"
The female ghost was silent.
Father Chen spoke up: "Only Yin Zongyang is left."
