Chapter 901: Ling Yan Loses Her Wariness
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
At the Gu residence in Country A.
It had been a week since the appointed time and the owner of the Nine-Eyed Pearl that Gu Siting had been waiting for still hadn’t appeared.
Although the Gu family had been sending people to look for him, the other party’s whereabouts were mysterious. They had never found any news about that person.
Therefore, Gu Siting could only wait for the person to contact him.
This kind of waiting made him very anxious, but there was nothing he could do.
However, Ling Yan’s initial anxiety turned into relief.
Ji Fang did not stay long at the Gu family home. She packed her things and was ready to leave Country A.
Gu Siting did not let her stay in the Gu family, so she called her daughter almost every morning to confirm her condition.
However, compared to the anxiety and fear from a few days ago, Ling Yan had calmed down.
When Ji Fang called early in the morning, she decided to meet her in person. After all, some things were not convenient to talk about over the phone.
Ji Fang had been on tenterhooks for many days. When she saw that her daughter was fine, she could not help but hug her.
“I thought we would never see each other again.”
Ling Yan looked at her mother and smiled.
“Don’t worry, nothing happened. I think we were just worrying too much.”
She also thought that the owner of the Nine-Eyed Pearl would show up and tell Gu Siting that Gu Weiwei was still alive.
She even had nightmares for days. She dreamed that Gu Weiwei was back, that she pointed at her nose and said that she was the murderer who killed her and that she was going to dig out her heart to pay for it.
However, so many days had pa.s.sed since the agreed time, and the Nine-Eyed Heavenly Pearl’s owner had yet to appear.
“Are you saying that Gu Siting has no idea about Gu Weiwei if that person doesn’t show up?” Ji Fang asked in surprise.
“If he knew, would I have come out to see you like this?” Ling Yan let out a sigh of relief and said, “It’s because we have a guilty conscience that we believe in the supernatural. It’s good enough if a person dies, how can they still be alive in this world?”
Gu Weiwei had been dead for so long and had been lying in the crystal coffin in the cellar. She would not be able to come back to life if her heart was gone.
When Ji Fang heard her words, although she was relieved, she was still worried.
“Although he didn’t appear, we still have to be careful.”
Ling Yan looked around and whispered, “Mom, I think that Gu Siting can’t accept Gu Weiwei’s death, so he thought that she would still be alive.”
There was no such thing as the owner of the Nine-Eyed Pearl, nor anything about Gu Weiwei being alive. It was all his imagination.
And she thought that it was true because Gu Weiwei died because of her and also because of Mu Weiwei’s movie.
“But Mu Weiwei… is too suspicious,” Ji Fang said.
Even now, when she recalled the scene in the movie, she could not help but have gooseb.u.mps.
Ling Yan, on the other hand, was very open-minded. “It’s just a movie. Most people would act that way in that kind of movie.”
If Mu Weiwei was still alive, she would have identified her as the murderer long ago, instead of waiting for Gu Siting to find her.
She was also shocked that she had believed in such a ridiculous thing.
“But…” Ji Fang felt that something was still wrong.
There were so many suspicious points before, but because that person did not appear, they were all too vague now.
