“If you hadn’t given her an overdose of the drug, how could anything have happened to her?” Lu Miao said coldly.

“She used her pregnancy to blackmail me first! She brought all this upon herself by jumping off the building, and she even caused my son to witness it. Ever since then, he’s had mental issues and is now in a mental hospital. Why does she have the right to seek revenge on me? Arrest her, arrest her!” Madam Hai shouted hoarsely.

After Jiang Ting jumped off the building, her son went insane. She threw away everything that the woman had touched in the house, except for this unfinished oil painting. Her son held onto it tightly every day.

Later on, she was forced to send Xiao You to a mental hospital, fearing that throwing away the painting might upset him when he wanted to paint. So, she locked the painting in the storeroom, but the woman’s spirit seemed relentless.

“Madam Hai, there’s a reason behind every injustice, but I can’t help you with this matter. Jiang Ting and her child will forever be by your side,” Lu Miao said, turning around and heading towards the exit.

“Master, Master, please don’t go,” Mr. Hai hurriedly got up and tried to catch up, but by the time he stepped outside, Lu Miao’s figure was already gone.

Back inside the house, he glared at Madam Hai and said angrily, “It’s all because of you. If you hadn’t drugged her, our son wouldn’t have gone crazy. I wouldn’t have been tormented and ended up in the hospital, and Jiang Ting wouldn’t have come back for revenge.”

“What do you suggest then? Should we let our son marry that scheming woman? If you had listened to me earlier and had her tied up and sent to the hospital for an abortion, Xiao You wouldn’t have gone insane,” Madam Hai retorted angrily.

“Now even the Feng Shui Master doesn’t care, what should we do?”

“What nonsense Feng Shui Master! I can see clearly that it’s all her fault.”

As they argued heatedly, a sharp crying sound suddenly came from the room behind them, followed by another and another, as if numerous babies were crying in their ears. The eerie cries echoed, sometimes sounding like they came from the room, and other times like they came from the kitchen.

The cries filled every corner of the house.

“Give me back my life!” a female voice suddenly rang out amid the cries.

In the oil painting placed on the coffee table, the woman seemed to come to life, as if she wanted to crawl out of the painting.

Although the house was well-lit at the moment, Mr. Hai rushed outside in a panic and disappeared from sight.

Madam Hai was so frightened that she fell to the ground, unable to stand up, and fainted on the spot.

At that moment, near the drainage pipe behind the villa, Lu Miao closed the eerie video on her phone and glanced at the pool of catfish swimming around in the small pool.

She had dealt with all kinds of supernatural events, but the Haifamily’s case was not one of them.

After her first visit to the Hai family, she was sure that there was no trace of evil in their house, and it was impossible that there was something dirty.

But the couple was convinced otherwise and didn’t ask for the reason. They just wanted her to solve it, which could only mean one thing—they were feeling guilty.

The deleted information on the internet also confirmed this.

After leaving the Hai family, she took a look around the villa.

There was a small pool covered with a stone slab behind the first floor. When she lifted the slab, she found a lot of water inside, filled with catfish. When she heard the wailing, she immediately understood.

The crying of the catfish sounded similar to a baby’s crying, and they were afraid of light and liked darkness. They were active at night, and she guessed that the crying they heard was probably the sound made by the catfish when they entered the bathroom through the drainage pipes at night.

The sound of the catfish was amplified through the house’s drainage pipes, making it difficult for them to determine where it was coming from.

As for the footsteps at night and the painting, she took the painting down when she went upstairs and deliberately made the footsteps sound.

The Haifamily’s situation was not difficult to investigate, and she quickly figured out everything.

She loved money, but not all money was worth earning.

For someone like Madam Hai, the law couldn’t punish her, and it was impossible to expect her to be condemned by her conscience. In her eyes, everything was someone else’s fault, so she could only punish her in another way and let her suffer for the rest of her life.

The next day was Monday. Lu Miao did not stay in captial for long. She booked a flight back to Luo City the next morning.

After Gu Ziheng found out, he hurriedly booked two more tickets and went straight to Lu Siyu’s place to grab Gu Xingyu. He personally escorted her onto the plane and sent her back to the Gu family.

When Shen Qinghe heard that she had caused trouble with Lu Miao at the television station, she was so angry that she ordered someone to whip her a few times.

“Gu Xingyu, how did I give birth to such a stupid daughter like you? Do you even have a brain? How many times do I have to explain the engagement between Lu Miao and your second brother? It was Lu Siyu who was afraid of death, and they made Lu Miao the scapegoat. The person you should hate is Lu Siyu, not Lu Miao!”

“You guys are the ones without brains! ” Gu Xingyu gritted her teeth and shouted, struggling to get up. Behind her, there was a sharp pain that pierced her heart. The sticky blood stains stuck her clothes and her back together, burning.

Gu Ziheng reached out to help her, but she pushed him away. “Get lost. In your eyes, it’s always my fault.”‘

He struggled to get up from the ground and staggered back to his room.

Shen Qinghe fell onto the sofa weakly. This was her biological daughter, so she naturally felt sorry for her.

However, she could not let her continue like this.

“Ziheng, find a psychiatrist. I’ll bring Xingyu to take a look and have her examined. ”

She really felt that there was something wrong with Gu Xingyu’s brain. Although Gu Xingyu was arrogant and willful in the past, at least she was not so stubborn.

Her current stubbornness had already reached a point that made one’s hair stand on end. It was as if she had been drugged and would not acknowledge anyone other than Lu Siyu.

In Gu Xingyu’s room upstairs, there was the sound of things being smashed.

Gu Ziheng couldn’t help but have a headache.” Got it. I’ll call her now.””

He struggled to get up from the ground and staggered back to his room..
