An Xiaoning asked, “Your sister went back to apologize to your parents, and so did Elder Brother. Isn’t that too much of a coincidence?”

“They were in cahoots all along. I’m not surprised at all. Let’s not tell Father about this. I’ve already laid a trap for him earlier on. Seems like it’s time to check my harvest.”

Seething with anger, Mrs. Gu exclaimed in fury, “I was upset about your brother returning home because I was worried that he would be up to some sordid act again. Have I ever let him down ever since I married your father? It’s not easy being someone else’s stepmother, but I’ve been treating him like my own even when he was not financially independent. Beicheng gets to inherit the company purely because of his abilities. What’s there to be upset about? He’s such a vicious and wicked ingrate. He wishes that we’d all be dead so that he can be in charge of the Gu family! Mingxi’s sister is so greedy too. They’re both sisters, what right has she got to covet her parents’ company and want it all to herself? Such a rapacious person like her will never be satisfied!”

Lin Mingxi was devastated. Fortunately, they managed to find out about it earlier. Otherwise, she would have lost both her baby and her own life.

No. 5 arrived with An Xiaoning’s bag, which she then unzipped. From inside it, she retrieved three yellow-colored, rectangular pieces of paper.

She then began writing an amulet with some red ink that she had made herself.

All three amulets were different.

After she was done writing them, she spread the amulets face-up and waited for them to dry.

She then took out a small joss urn from her bag and placed it onto the table before taking out two more joss sticks.

Gu Beicheng and Lin Mingxi held one joss stick each.

“Both of you, stand there beside each other,” An Xiaoning instructed, pointing at the coffee table.

The two did as instructed.

“Light up the joss sticks, pray thrice, and place them inside the urn.”

Gu Beicheng lit up each of the joss sticks with a lighter and prayed sincerely before placing them into the joss urn.

An Xiaoning lit up the dried amulets and laid them down onto the table.

The three amulets slowly turned into ashes.

“Bring me a mug for drinking.”

Gu Beicheng hurriedly handed her a mug.

” ”

An Xiaoning poured the ashes into the mug and handed it back to him. “Add some hot water into this and mix it evenly.”

Gu Beicheng poured the boiling water in the kettle into the mug to form a black, murky solution.

“You can’t be thinking of making me drink that, can you?” said Lin Mingxi, pointing at the mug.

“That’s right. Drink it once it’s cooled down. You’ll be fine after drinking it. The yellow paper was made using herbs. It might taste a little strange, but it’s still bearable.”

Lin Mingxi felt much more relieved after hearing her words. Once the water had cooled to a suitable temperature, she picked the mug up to take a sip before saying, “You’re right, it does taste a little strange, but it’s not too bad.”

She then gulped it down in one breath.

An Xiaoning handed her another cup of clear water and said, “Rinse your mouth.”

“Xiaoning, will she really be fine after this?” Mrs. Gu asked worriedly.

“Yes, she’ll be alright.” Noticing that Lin Mingxi had stood up abruptly, An Xiaoning asked, “Where are you going?”

“Back to my parents’ place.”

“Just rest for a while and go in the afternoon instead. Listen to me,” An Xiaoning advised.

Lin Mingxi heeded her advice in the end and lay in bed to rest for the rest of the morning. She planned to head to her parents’ home in the afternoon.

The thought of the incident sent anger rushing through her veins. She repeatedly comforted herself and reminded herself not to blow her top. Instead, she simply forced herself to endure it.

After having lunch, Lin Mingxi returned to the Lin family home together with Gu Beicheng.

Coincidentally, Lin Mingyuan happened to be having lunch with Mr. and Mrs. Lin.

As soon as Lin Mingxi entered the house, she was greeted with the sight of the three of them having a joyous and harmonious meal. Unable to tolerate Lin Mingyuan’s hypocrisy any further, she stepped forward and flipped the dining table.

She did just that right in front of her parents.

Mr. and Mrs. Lin were dumbfounded and shocked out of their senses. With a grave expression on her face, Lin Mingyuan hollered, “Mingxi, what are you doing!?! You’d better know your limits!”

“What am I doing? I should be the one asking, what are you doing here, you wretched woman!?! You sounded Father and Mother out to find out my birth characters and then put a curse on me to make me suffer a miscarriage within a week. I’ll even have died within a month. My dear sister, you’re so vicious. No wonder you came home all of a sudden acting out of the ordinary. Turns out you were up to a malicious act! Are you enjoying yourself, being in cahoots with Gu Dongcheng?” Lin Mingxi snapped, glowering at her.

Lin Mingyuan retorted, “What evidence have you got? Don’t accuse me if you don’t have any proof. Since you said that I was the one who did it, show me the evidence!”

“Drop the act. You know clearly yourself whether or not you were the one who did it!” Lin Mingxi looked at her parents and barked, “Did you guys leak my birth characters!?!”

Mr. and Mrs. Lin looked at each other in dismay and shook their heads fervently. “No, are we such people? We definitely didn’t!”

“You didn’t? If you didn’t, how did those people who are looking to harm me find out about my birth characters?” Lin Mingxi questioned, clearly not believing them.

Gu Beicheng held her hand and asked, “Father, Mother, when did she come home during the past few days?”

Mrs. Lin answered truthfully, “Apart from yesterday, she’s been coming home every day. Why would your father and I leak the birth characters and timing to others?”

“Father, Mother, there’s a hypnosis technique that allows one to find out some secrets from the subject who has a poor willpower. The subject won’t be able to remember anything after the hypnosis.” Gu Beicheng then glanced at Lin Mingyuan and said, “Am I right?”

“Utter bullshit! Do you two think it’s right to lie to Father and Mother like this? I didn’t do anything of that sort. Don’t try and accuse me without any solid proof,” Lin Mingyuan vehemently denied.

“You’ll know if we’re maligning you after hearing this,” said Gu Beicheng, who then played a voice recording.

It was a conversation between Gu Dongcheng and Gu Beicheng.

Gu Beicheng: “How long have you been in cahoots with Lin Mingyuan?”

Gu Dongcheng: “Not that long, but it’s been some time.”

Gu Beicheng: “Did you two work together to put a curse on Mingxi?”

Gu Dongcheng: “Yes, we did.”

Gu Beicheng turned off the recording and said, “So? Are you still going to deny it now?”

Lin Mingyuan refused to admit to it and retorted, “It’s just a one-sided confession from him. It doesn’t prove anything.”

“I’ve already checked the call and communication history between you and Dongcheng. You two are contacting each other very frequently. The Gu Corporation and the Lin Corporation have never been in a partnership before. So why are you meeting him so often?” Gu Beicheng questioned.

“That’s none of your business.”

Gu Beicheng sneered, “You’re right, it’s not. However, I can’t take it lying down if you’re trying to harm us. Even if you refuse to admit it, the police will still need a witness. I believe Dongcheng’s statement is enough to prove something. If you still continue to deny it, the police will extract an answer from you via hypnosis.”

Lin Mingyuan’s temples were throbbing vigorously. At this point, she utterly detested Gu Dongcheng. I can’t believe he betrayed me!

“Stop trying to frame me. What has it got to do with me if your brother is trying to harm you? I don’t know what happened at all.”
