“Alright, I’ll leave now.” Song Fan grabbed the handbag beside her. With Song Yin’s funeral approaching, she needed to pack up and move out to avoid potential trouble.

Lan Yue wailed, “You’re so unfaithful. Aren’t you afraid your dad will do anything to me in the office?”

“I’m not afraid.” Song Fan had already walked to the office door. Turning around, she added, “Just remember that beating someone up and causing disability can result in a jail sentence of eight to ten years.”

Having said that, she left without looking back, leaving Lan Yue gnashing her teeth and silently scolding her for being heartless. Lan Yue’s karate and self-defense skills were taught by Song Fan. Now, he was here to warn her. It was infuriating!

Upon reaching the villa, Song Fan noticed eerie white lanterns and the sound of mourning in the courtyard.

A man in a Taoist robe brandished a wooden sword, reciting chants—a scene reminiscent of exorcism from TV dramas. However, the Taoist priest sported a pair of glasses, giving him an unusual appearance.

Seeing Song Fan’s return, the servants dared not make a sound, fearing her displeasure. They were aware of the strained relationship between Song Fan and Song Yin. Now, as they worked on arrangements for Song Yin, they were unsure if Eldest Miss would be angered.

Meng Yu, however, was too preoccupied to pay attention to Song Fan at the moment. She gazed at the Taoist priest with an earnest expression. “Taoist priest, do you think my daughter’s soul can truly rest in peace? Will I stop having nightmares after today?”

Meng Yu didn’t believe in ghosts and deities; otherwise, she wouldn’t have dared to commit so many heartless acts. However, she had been plagued by nightmares since yesterday and couldn’t recall their content. That was why, when someone in her social circle recommended a Taoist priest, she decided to give it a try.

The Taoist priest wore a ponderous expression. He furrowed his brow and said,

“Madam, your daughter’s spirit is filled with resentment. She seems to have suffered a violent death, but in my opinion, it’s more likely she was murdered. That’s why her soul is restless, and you’re troubled at night.”

“Was she killed by someone?” Meng Yu clenched her fists tightly and felt a twinge of guilt. However, in front of so many people, she couldn’t afford to show any signs of remorse.

“I told you, Yin Yin is usually the most obedient. Why would she resort to robbing criminals?” Meng Yu said fiercely. “Someone must have incited her.

Someone must have harmed her, right?”

The Taoist priest remained silent, merely stating, “If her spirit is not at peace, the entire family may be affected. It’s crucial to guide her to the Elysian World as soon as possible.”

Song Fan’s cold laughter hinted at her understanding. The Taoist priest was subtly suggesting that this matter could be resolved with money. Without payment, the whole family might face turmoil.

This kind of charlatan Taoist priest was skilled in smooth-talking. Coupled with the vulnerability of those present, it was easy for him to earn money.

Song Fan didn’t want to witness the charade any longer. As she was about to enter the villa, the Taoist priest stopped her. “Miss, do you disagree with what

I’ve said?”

He detected the cold laughter and approached to argue with this young girl. Though some family members doubted him, he could always persuade them.

However, he distinctly felt the girl snort coldly just now, and all the servants around immediately lowered their heads. This girl held a high status in the family—likely Eldest Miss Song. He couldn’t afford to let someone of such status disbelieve him; otherwise, his efforts would be in vain.

“What difference does it make if I agree or not?” Song Fan raised her head to look at him, her eyes devoid of emotion. “In any case, I’m not the one giving you money. She just needs to believe you.”

The Taoist priest felt as though he had been electrocuted the moment he met Song Fan’s gaze. He stumbled backward, almost losing his balance.

“What’s wrong?” Meng Yu asked worriedly. “Priest Li, what happened?”

She then turned to Song Fan, her eyes welling with tears. “Fanfan, I know you and Yinyin didn’t get along, but now that she’s gone, can’t you let go of your grudge? Priest Li is here to soothe Yin Yin’s soul. Can’t you be more understanding?”

Meng Yu cried as she spoke, and many of the servants around her joined in. Over the years, Meng Yu had treated them well. Song Yin was usually lively and cute, with a good relationship with the servants. Recalling past events, everyone felt a bit dissatisfied with Song Fan’s cold demeanor.

“Sister,” Meng Xia said with some dissatisfaction, “Yin Yin is gone. Can’t you be more tolerant? Moreover, Priest Li didn’t provoke you. What are you doing?”

Song Fan pursed her lips. “What did I do?” She stared coldly at the two people performing in front of her and then at Priest Li.. “What do you think I did?”
