Chapter 417: Chapter 417: Is Today Ominous or Auspicious?

Second Aunt Zhang: ...

"I haven’t even opened my mouth yet, and you’ve already spouted off so much?"

She took a deep breath, trying to light incense in the inner room, but Song Yunuan grabbed her by the arm.

Song Yunuan was smiling, but her voice sounded sinister, "Second Aunt Zhang, don’t go just yet. First, clear up Xia Zhi’s hallucinations. After that, we can sit down and talk slowly."

At this moment, the security guard responsible for surveillance saw Song Yunuan and Xia Zhi enter the yard.

He started to arrange manpower while he pretended to be checking the electricity meter, preparing to knock on the door.

Unexpectedly, several serious-looking ladies approached, all from the neighborhood committee, wearing red armbands.

Seeing him at the door, they immediately began to interrogate him.

After seeing the identification he presented, they whispered to him that they had already discussed with the young girl who had entered earlier. She would signal them from inside, and then they would move in to make the arrest.

The people inside were engaging in feudal superstition.

Feudal superstition was unacceptable, and they definitely had to catch the fraudster, Second Aunt Zhang, in the act.

Otherwise, who knows how many innocent people might be deceived.

So, it was like this?

The security guard blinked and obediently stood behind the ladies.

Waiting for the signal from Song Yunuan who had just entered.

At this moment, Song Yunuan was holding Second Aunt Zhang’s hand tightly; her fingers were long, soft, and pearl-colored under the sunlight. They seemed gentle yet were amazingly strong.

Second Aunt Zhang was rendered immobile as if clamped by iron pincers.

Then Xia Zhi quickly spoke up, "I did as you told me and brought her here. Now hurry up and get rid of my hallucinations."

Song Yunuan replied, "I know what you want to find out. To avoid trouble later, I’ll simply tell you everything today, but I can’t just say it directly. My body is inhabited by a deity; you need to prepare the altar and other offerings. Otherwise, when the deity descends, your meager preparations would bring bad luck upon us both."

Second Aunt Zhang suddenly regretted it a bit.

This didn’t seem quite right.

"Then you start talking. After you finish, I will dispel his hallucinations," she finally had a chance to talk.

"That won’t do. I don’t trust you. Besides, he’s sort of like my uncle. I can’t let him be embarrassed like a lunatic. It’s also my fault for getting him into this. You must dispel his hallucinations first, or I won’t tell you a single word."

Upon hearing this, Xia Zhi was so moved he almost cried.

It wasn’t about who caused trouble for whom; it was those four words.

Sort of like my uncle.

In truth, he didn’t really care for it.

But hearing it stirred complicated feelings inside him.

Once again, resentment filled his heart against his mother. Ah, if she had been just a bit kinder, would she have ended up in such a situation?

He stood next to Song Yunuan, and at that moment, he clenched his fists with gritted teeth, "Don’t think that I’m easy to bully."

An altar?

Second Aunt Zhang said to Song Yunuan, "You’re right. I will set up the altar now, but you have to let me go."

Song Yunuan released her hand.

Meanwhile, Shangguan Wan remembered the first time she met Song Yunuan and her fierce demeanor.

But as soon as she thought of Zhong Shaoqing, she blurted out, "... Song Yunuan, how is Second Young Master Zhong now? You wouldn’t have detained him just to extort his medical fees, would you?"

Song Yunuan turned to look at Shangguan Wan, "What’s it to you?"

Shangguan Wan: "I am his fiancée! Of course, I have the right to ask."

Song Yunuan’s eyes whirled, and suddenly, with a clap of her hands, she had a sudden realization, "I totally forgot you’re his fiancée. Indeed, Zhong Shaoqing is not doing well, he is going through the toughest phase right now.

You don’t know, his beastly father actually gave Second Young Master Zhong those addictive drugs, and now that he’s run out of them, every time his craving hits, he bangs his head against the wall."

You have no idea, his head bashes are unbearable to witness. Since you’re from the same place as he is, why don’t you either help him buy some good medicine, or go and comfort him yourself? Singing and dancing for him would do as well."

He’s fallen ill again these past few days and is tied up in a room. Otherwise, he would have come to look for you earlier since he likes you the most. Once the business here is sorted out, I’ll take you to see him."

After finishing these words, Song Yunuan’s brows and eyes were filled with joy, seemingly genuinely delighted.

Shangguan Wan, who had been full of confidence, was frozen in place, her body rigid.

How could she have forgotten?

She had heard from her mom that to keep his son under control, Chairman Zhong regularly injected him with an incredibly dominant drug, one that a person could never quit in their lifetime.

They say it’s called "Living Deity."

When her mom spoke of this, she fiercely cursed her own father for his lack of conscience, not cherishing his daughter and arranging a marriage with such a family solely for benefits.

Shangguan Wan retreated several steps.

Her face instantly turned ashen.

Xia Zhi glanced at her coldly, "Little Wan, I heard that lunatic really likes you. He must miss you terribly after not seeing you for so long."

Shangguan Wan, suppressing her fear, said, "I... I was just asking casually. Actually, our engagement was already annulled a long time ago, I swear, it really was."

Song Yunuan asked curiously, "Did you annul it unilaterally?"

"No, no, it was my dad and Chairman Zhong who annulled it together. Anyway, we have no relation now, I was just asking casually."

Song Yunuan showed a very disappointed expression.

Just as she was about to say something, Second Aunt Zhang came out from a room and said to Song Yunuan, "You and Xia Zhi come inside."

Then she looked towards the courtyard; two bodyguards stood at the doorway, exuding an aura of indomitability.

Xia Zhi is just an idiot.

No matter how strong Song Yunuan was, it was useless; the psychotropic incense had already been lit.

Silently, it had spread throughout the whole house.

Second Aunt Zhang stared intently into Song Yunuan’s eyes.

Song Yunuan glanced into the room. Oh my, it’s all set up.

She shoved Xia Zhi to hurry him inside, then turned to Second Aunt Zhang, "Shouldn’t you change your clothes?"

Afterwards, Song Yunuan pressed on her forehead, her gaze toward Second Aunt Zhang became blurred, and her figure swayed, "Has the deity arrived? I’m feeling so dizzy. Hurry up and change, quickly, quickly!"

Someone like Second Aunt Zhang surely had a set of clothes on hand for a specific occasion.

Song Yunuan stamped her foot urging Second Aunt Zhang, "Hurry up and change your clothes. If the deity leaves, you won’t know anything."

So Second Aunt Zhang went into the bedroom and after putting on a robe-like garment, Song Yunuan approached and grabbed Second Aunt Zhang, with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, "Before you did something bad, didn’t you cast a fortune for yourself, to see if today is auspicious or ominous? Is there any bloody disaster? Any dangers of jail?"

While speaking, she pulled Second Aunt Zhang towards the outside.

Kicking the door open, she dragged Second Aunt Zhang out into the courtyard.

She shouted towards the main gate, "Aunt Liang, come in quick! Someone named Second Aunt Zhang is here performing superstitious rituals..."

Second Aunt Zhang reached out, trying to push Song Yunuan away, but Song Yunuan held on tightly.

With a ghastly pale face and a gloomy gaze, Second Aunt Zhang said to Song Yunuan, "You were prepared for this, I really underestimated you."
