Chapter 313: Chapter 311: Come Back with Me
"How can your power become stronger?"
Qin Kejing asked again.
Taohua Fairy replied with a smile, "Previously, only you provided me with fresh blood, which was far from enough.
If your parents join in as well, my power would naturally become much stronger."
"How much blood do you need?"
This question was posed by Zhou Rui.
She had always felt that Taohua Fairy was suspicious. Now that Taohua Fairy wanted blood from all three members of their family, she worried that Taohua Fairy intended to harm them.
"Just one bowl per person would suffice."
"Mom and Dad, one bowl of blood isn’t much, please give it to her! Besides, if you apply taohua on the wound, it will heal quickly and won’t leave any marks!
Afterwards, we can buy some tonic to replenish the blood."
Qin Kejing urgently told her parents, as she desperately hoped Taohua Fairy would assist them promptly. Otherwise, the Shen Family would announce the engagement cancellation.
She would not only lose Shen Xihhe entirely but would also disgrace the Qin family.
Qin Siyu and Zhou Rui also realized this. The amount of blood Taohua Fairy requested—one bowl per person—was indeed not much, and was within their level of tolerance.
Zhou Rui went to the kitchen and brought two small bowls.
Both of them cut their wrists and filled a bowl full of blood, then poured it under the peach tree.
Before long, the peach tree had absorbed all the fresh blood, and the figure of Taohua Fairy became much more solid.
Taohua Fairy revealed a satisfied smile, her eyes grew more profound, and black qi emerged from within. However, a faint pink halo surrounded her, which concealed the black qi from others’ view.
"Excellent! Truly excellent!" Taohua Fairy chuckled lightly, "I’ll go fetch him right away and ensure he remains by your side forever."
As her words fell, Taohua Fairy’s figure disappeared from view.
The faint pink halo around the peach tree also vanished, while even more peach blossoms bloomed on the tree.
However, these peach blossoms were no longer pale pink but gradually shifted toward a vivid red, as if they had been stained with blood.
The faces of the three Qin family members turned extremely pale, and a strange black qi appeared at the location of their Life Palaces, which ordinary people could not see.
After Taohua Fairy left, based on Shen Xihhe’s previous aura, she located where the press conference was happening.
The Shen Family owned many well-known businesses in Imperial City, and this press conference was to introduce the company’s new product before announcing the heir’s marital status.
The venue was crowded with journalists who had already heard about the engagement cancellation.
Qin Kejing’s previous actions had caused quite a stir in the business district of Imperial City.
Everyone was speculating when the Shen Family would cancel the engagement.
The crime Qin Kejing committed was not a minor one—it was murder. She was also diagnosed by a professional institution with dissociative identity disorder; no affluent family would accept such a daughter-in-law.
As the staff introduced the new product, all the journalists seemed disinterested.
It was only when Mrs. Shen and Shen Xihhe appeared, the mother and son briefly discussed the new product before switching to the topic of the engagement.
Mrs. Shen publicly stated, "After careful consideration over this period, the mistake made by Miss Qin Kejing is truly unacceptable to us. The Shen Family has always maintained a clean record, with no one ever involved in illegal activities.
Miss Qin and Mr. Shen have different fundamental beliefs and incompatible values, therefore, from today onward, their engagement is annulled, and they shall not interfere in each other’s future marriage prospects."
"Just a few days ago, people saw them shopping together. Has Miss Qin been released? Was it a not-guilty verdict?"
"If Miss Qin is innocent, then why would you still cancel the engagement?"
"Is it true that Miss Qin has schizophrenia? Did she actually kill someone?"
Mrs. Shen answered with a smile, "These questions would be more appropriately directed to the judicial authorities. As for why she was released, we don’t know either.
She wanted to go shopping with Xihe, and Xihe intended to clarify the matter of calling off their engagement, which is why they met."
"Mr. Shen, what is your take on this matter? Do you really no longer like Miss Qin? It is said that you had been together for four years, there must’ve been some affection, right?"
Shen Xihhe replied, "We were indeed together for a long time, but I still didn’t know her well enough. If I had known earlier what kind of person she was, we wouldn’t have started at all.
What she did not only violated the law but also crossed my bottom line. Even those present here wouldn’t tolerate their other half committing such acts, right?"
"So you’re admitting that Miss Qin is guilty. Then why is she able to be out?"
"Are you helping her escape legal punishment?"
Shen Xihhe continued to answer, "We, the Shen Family, would never engage in illegal activities. Those who do wrong must take responsibility, even if they suffer from a mental illness."
He spoke quite bluntly.
Because Shen Xihhe had harbored quite a bit of resentment toward the Qin family, he spilled everything in front of the reporters, leaving no face.
Moreover, the mother and son also threw out a question.
That question was how Qin Kejing, who was clearly guilty, could still be wandering outside. Her loitering outside caused them so much trouble! She even used Evil Techniques to harm people!
"So you didn’t help Miss Qin. Who did then?"
The reporters were indeed very curious about this matter.
If Qin Kejing was guilty, she was a fugitive! Someone helped her escape legal punishment!
Such a challenge to the authority of the law would surely cause a huge uproar if it were made public online.
"I am also curious as to who helped Qin Kejing escape legal punishment. Perhaps you could continue to investigate, and you might dig up something significant."
This press conference from the Shen Family not only announced the dissolution of the engagement but also set a trap for the Qin family.
Everything that needed to be said had been said.
The reporters left loaded with stories, and the Shen family felt they had gotten something off their chest.
"Mom, I need to go to the restroom."
After dealing with the reporters, Shen Xihhe’s expression collapsed. He hadn’t slept all night and was very tired. He planned to go to the restroom to wash his face to freshen up.
The sound of rushing water came from the restroom.
Shen Xihhe stood next to the washbasin, about to scoop up water to wash his face, when he saw the water from the faucet turn into thick, fresh blood, with numerous blackened clots of blood!
He was shocked and stepped back abruptly.
At that moment, a long-haired female ghost crawled out of the mirror!
Her green-gray face was covered in fresh bloody scratch marks, and her eyeballs had even fallen out of their sockets. A smoke-like dense black mist continuously poured out from the bloody sockets.
"Ah!"
Shen Xihhe screamed in horror and hastily ran towards the door.
"Come back with me."
The female ghost laughed coldly and lunged at him.
The exit of the restroom was just ahead, the door wide open, yet Shen Xihhe felt as though there was something blocking the door, preventing him from leaving, and the passersby outside couldn’t see him at all!
"Help! Save me!"
He shouted out to the passersby, but there was no response.
