“Argh!”�

  With a heart-wrenching scream, Wenxin went limp.

  She hurriedly retreated, tears and mucus streaming down her face as she screamed.

  The soundproofing in the old house was poor to begin with. Now that Wenxin was screaming, the neighbors turned their attention to the unit.

  Wenxin shrieked sharply as she struggled to escape. However, Jiang Yeqing kicked her again.

  He hollered, “Open your eyes wide and take a look! Who is this who died here? Damn it, who was the reason for her death? Damn you, b*tch!”

  The man didn’t care about shaming her. He even scolded her and pinned her against the corpse.

  Wenxin scrambled backwards desperately, struggling and trying her best to retreat. However, she could not resist the furious man at all.

  \r \r \r

  Staring at the dead body in front of her, Wenxin widened her eyes and finally, her eyes rolled back before she passed out.

  Some neighbors were already coming forward to watch. Lao Wu quickly stopped Jiang Yeqing and said, “Hurry and call the police. What’s the use of torturing her now that things have turned out this way? This woman isn’t a good person either. How can a normal girl do this? Look at the ear studs on her ears. They’re real gold and real diamonds, and of some luxury brand. They cost at least tens of thousands. With this money, if she had hired a nanny to look after her mother, this wouldn’t have happened.”

  But it was too late to be saying these things.

  More and more neighbors were coming. Some of them covered their noses and mouths as they cursed aloud.

  Although the spoken language of Kang City was rather obscure, Jiang Yeqing understood a little of what they were saying.

  Given this, he turned around with a sullen expression and got Lao Wu to call the police.

  The results of the autopsy were out very quickly. She had died from the poor quality of her lifestyle, and it had been six days since her demise.

  As the doors and windows in her unit were tightly shut, the smell did not spread too far. Hence, no one had realized that someone had died in their home.

  Jiang Yeqing was heartbroken and disappointed, but more than that, he felt guilty.

  He had been looking for them all these years, but because he had been looking for a long time, his attention to the matter had waned somewhat.

  If he had found them earlier, or come to Kang City earlier, or gone to that restaurant a few days earlier, would the outcome have been different?

  However, there were no “ifs” in these things.

  He personally organized Madam Jiang’s funeral.

  It wasn’t a big event, but it was solemn and dignified.

  After Wenxin regained her consciousness, she started acting insanely.

  She cried whenever she saw Jiang Yeqing. When she saw Madam Jiang’s photograph, she cried even harder and fainted several times in front of Madam Jiang’s urn.

  Later on, even when she came to, she remained in a daze and did not say a word. She did not even want to groom herself. For a few days, she was like this.

  Initially, Lao Wu and Jiang Yeqing thought that she was overly sad and thought that she had some conscience. However, to their horror, she started to eat the food offerings laid out on the altar for the spirit of the dead.

  Wenxin’s behavior was too bizarre, hence as soon as the funeral ended, Jiang Yeqing took her to the doctor.

  The diagnosis came out very quickly. She was in a confused state of mind resulting from the shock.

  Lao Wu was stunned for a moment by the diagnosis. Then, he patted Jiang Yeqing’s shoulder sympathetically and said, “What do you plan to do with this woman?”

  This woman…… the man didn’t even bother to address her properly. It only showed how much he disliked her.
