Chapter 297: Wang Yingzhi Sees a Ghost

~9 min read 1,653 words

Shi Youxuan watched the figure running away, feeling a moment of trance.

She felt dazed, as if time hadn't changed and was still stuck five years ago!

Wang Yingzhi was still the same; everyone else had changed, but only she hadn't, still as acerbic, mean, and unreliable as ever.

"Let's go, let's go home," she said, turning to Jian Yining.

Her mood instantly improved.

Shi Youxuan's mood was good, but Wang Yingzhi's was extremely bad.

She couldn't imagine meeting a "ghost" in broad daylight, so she scrambled back home, shouting and screaming: "Old man, come out quickly! I've seen a ghost, I've seen a ghost!"

Sheng Jiang emerged from the room sluggishly: "You're the one with a ghost in your heart, that's why you see everyone as a ghost!"

Wang Yingzhi was parched from running; she grabbed the water carafe from the coffee table and, without even using a cup, poured it directly into her mouth, drinking several large gulps before she felt better.

"I'm not lying to you, I really saw a ghost. Guess who I just saw at the mall?" Wang Yingzhi grabbed Sheng Jiang's hand, acting mysterious.

Sheng Jiang didn't even lift his eyelids: "You saw a ghost, obviously. You said so yourself."

"I'm telling you something serious, can you be more earnest?" Wang Yingzhi said, displeased.

"Fine, I'm being earnest. I can't guess."

Sheng Jiang truly couldn't guess, and he couldn't be bothered to try.

Because he knew that even if he didn't guess, Wang Yingzhi wouldn't be able to hold it in and would blurt it out soon.

Sure enough, Wang Yingzhi looked left and right; even though they were the only two in their own home, she leaned close to Sheng Jiang's ear as if afraid of being overheard...

"Speak normally, I can hear you."

Sheng Jiang pushed her away.

This bad habit was something she couldn't get rid of in a lifetime; she always liked to be sneaky, like a thief.

"I saw Shi Youxuan."

"Your eyes are failing you."

Sheng Jiang stood up and walked away, not believing it at all.

"It's impossible, I saw it clearly—it was Shi Youxuan!"

Wang Yingzhi shouted at Sheng Jiang's back.

Then she sat on the sofa herself, feeling a bit doubtful—could she have seen wrong?

That was also possible.

Shi Youxuan had already died five years ago; it was impossible for her to still be alive.

Even if one were to encounter a ghost, it would happen at night.

In broad daylight, under the bright sky, to encounter a ghost?

She thought about it for an hour and decided to go ask her younger sister.

Sheng Hanyu Villa.

The aunt had made some home-cooked dishes for Shi Youxuan and her daughter, placing them in a food container, ready to deliver them.

Her nephew had specifically called from abroad, begging her to take care of the mother and daughter, saying Shi Youxuan didn't know how to cook and he was afraid the child would be wronged...

Good heavens, for someone who was always so sparing with his words.

Just for this little matter, he had actually repeated himself over and over, as if afraid she wouldn't remember.

The aunt was just about to head out when her older sister suddenly barged in.

As soon as she entered, she grabbed her arm and asked: "Where is Hanyu? I have a super important matter to find him for."

"He isn't home, he went abroad," the aunt said truthfully.

But Wang Yingzhi didn't believe her: "You're lying to me. He must be here. You just won't let me see my son, I'll go find him myself."

She turned to go upstairs to look, and the housekeeper heard the commotion and went over to stop her...

The aunt shook her head, picked up the food container, went out, got in the car, and drove toward Shi Youxuan's Apartment.

This situation had happened many times before; she was used to it.

Wang Yingzhi had always been resentful because her sister lived in her son's villa, and she had come here to cause trouble several times.

She scolded her for having ulterior motives, wanting to steal her son, and even said that her staying unmarried her whole life was because she was coveting her own brother-in-law... she said many nasty things.

If it weren't for Sheng Hanyu, Wang Yinghao really wouldn't want to stay here; the feeling of being scolded by her own older sister for no reason was not good.

This time was still mild.

Wang Yingzhi had been kicked out of the villa by the housekeeper; the housekeeper wasn't as easy to bully as Wang Yinghao, and she was a bit afraid!

Originally, she was still full of anger after being kicked out, but seeing her sister's car, although it had driven far away, she could still catch up, so she became happy again.

Wang Yingzhi got in the car, fastened her seatbelt, stepped on the gas to catch up, and seeing her sister's car in front, she slowed down to keep a distance, neither too fast nor too slow.

She thought that by following her sister, she would be able to find her son.

And then tell her son the news that she had seen Shi Youxuan!

Shi Youxuan was the apple of Sheng Hanyu's eye; everyone in Jiangzhou knew this.

She wanted to use Shi Youxuan to ease her relationship with her son; of course, whether the person she saw at the mall yesterday was Shi Youxuan or not didn't matter—what mattered was that the person could be used by her.

Wang Yingzhi had a good plan, following her sister all the way to the downstairs of the Apartment.

"Hanyu would live in a place like this?"

Wang Yingzhi muttered to herself: "Maybe it's a golden house to hide a mistress? Oh my, if that's the case, that would be great! I'll be able to hold a grandson soon..."

She was still dreaming her daydream of holding a grandson when she saw Shi Youxuan come out from inside.

She was also leading a little girl of four or five years old by the hand.

Her eyes stared fixedly at the shadow on the ground—that's right, Shi Youxuan had a shadow!

That means she is a human, not a ghost.

She is still alive?

Wang Yinghao also knew she was alive, and they were actually in contact, yet only she had no contact with her.

Wang Yingzhi was furious.

She felt her dignity had been insulted; she was the legitimate mother of Sheng Hanyu, so by what right was Wang Yinghao closer to them than she was?

She pushed the car door open and was about to get out, but she pulled her foot back; Wang Yingzhi was not completely stupid, and she suddenly realized—something was wrong.

She had known that Shi Youxuan went missing after her "miscarriage," and the child who had suddenly appeared now was definitely not her granddaughter, but some bastard born to who knows whom; it would be useless for her to go up there now.

Wang Yingzhi sat honestly in the car until Wang Yinghao came out from inside and drove away, then she got out of the car and walked into the building unit.

In the lobby, she asked the property management: "Hello, may I ask which floor Shi Youxuan lives on? My younger sister asked me to bring her some things, but I forgot to ask for the floor number."

Wang Yinghao had just left, and the two sisters still looked quite alike.

Thus, the property management staff did not think much of it; not only did they tell her the floor, but they also helped her press the elevator button.

"Ding-dong—"

Shi Youxuan heard the doorbell ring and, thinking it was her aunt returning, opened the door without even looking through the peephole!

As a result, she saw Wang Yingzhi standing at the doorway, and her smile immediately vanished; just as she was about to close the door, Wang Yingzhi stuck a foot into the door frame and also used her hand to forcefully hold it open to prevent it from closing.

"Shi Youxuan, do you have any shame? You are already married and have a child, yet you still come back to pester my son. My son will never want you, you had better give up this idea sooner rather than later..."

The child was in the room, and Wang Yingzhi's loud voice successfully frightened Shi Ran.

She ran out from the room and kicked and struck at Wang Yingzhi: "Get out, get out of here! You were the one who bullied my mommy at the mall, and now you've bullied your way to our home? I'll have Daddy throw you into the ocean!"

"Ranran, go back to your room, she has the wrong person."

Shi Youxuan was afraid of frightening the child and told her to go back to the room.

Shi Ran was also afraid that her mommy would be bullied, so she insisted on staying to accompany her mommy and drive this old woman away!

Wang Yingzhi became even angrier when she saw the child, and she became even more unbridled and started spouting nonsense.

"Little bastard, you're just as fierce as your mother. Who is your father? At such a young age you're already talking about killing and fighting; your father must not be a good person either, a piece of trash who deserves to be hacked to death and shot..."

"Shut up!"

Wang Yingzhi immediately shut her mouth.

A moment later, she turned her head to claim credit: "Hanyu, you came at just the right time. This woman even has a wild child outside; let's stop thinking about her. Mom will introduce you to a young woman who has never been married, and we can have a few children of our own... Hey, Hanyu, what are you doing?"
