  Feng Ling smoothly pushed Ji Mengran behind a brick wall by the side. Not waiting to hear Ji Mengran’s shriek, Ji Nuan expressionlessly turned to leave.

  Ji Mengran was heavily pressed onto the brick wall, her back slammed painfully against it. Her expression was pale and frightened as she stared at the short-haired woman before her. “I warn you; you’re not allowed to touch me! If you dare to do anything to me here, I’ll sue you! I’ll sue you until your ancestors aren’t able to rest in peace!”


  Feng Ling coldly narrowed her eyes at her. “I haven’t even done anything. What are you shouting for?”


  Ji Mengran’s complexion alternated between turning red and pale; her hands were holding her own clothes in a death grip. She was terrified that she would be beaten up and was so nervous her fingers had begun to turn white.

  “Don’t be afraid. Mrs. Mo doesn’t plan on taking your life.” Feng Ling smiled coldly. “But the Ji family’s Second Miss’s thirst for knowledge is too great. We can’t let you return without any rewards. Since you’ve already come, don’t be in such a hurry to leave.”


  “You, what do you mean……” The iciness in her eyes caused Ji Mengran’s lips to tremble.

  Feng Ling brought out Ji Mengran’s phone from her pocket. The moment she saw it, Ji Mengran reached out to snatch it. “Return that to me!”


  Before her hands could even touch it, she watched as her phone slipped from Feng Ling’s grip. She was unable to catch it in time, and it fell heavily onto the ground.

  Ji Mengran felt that things were taking a turn for the worse and quickly bent to pick it up. However, her phone was abruptly pressed under Feng Ling’s feet. An ominous cracking sound rang out.

  Ji Mengran’s body trembled. She slowly raised her head, resisting the urge to cry. Her shivering body straightened and attempted to take a step back but only succeeded in knocking against the brick wall behind her.

  “Do you know where this is?” Feng Ling’s tone was cold.

  Ji Mengran subconsciously glanced around, answering guiltily, “It’s an area vacated a long time ago.”


  Feng Ling’s figure was tall. She glanced at her as though looking down on her. “After being vacated for so long, it’s never been redeveloped or rebuilt. Has the Ji family’s Second Miss never heard of the reason behind this?”


  Ji Mengran’s expression gradually shifted from fear to panic. She abruptly shifted her eyes to meet Feng Ling’s gaze.

  If she recalled correctly, this area had been developed into a brand-new residential area several years ago. Many people had moved into this area, but after a short period of time, rumors of ghost sightings and frequent strange occurrences drove several occupants to move out. This piece of land had actually been an unmarked burial site used by unscrupulous developers. It was only the passage of time that caused people to forget and purchase the homes here.

  However, the fear of the new rumors of ghost sightings kept people from further approaching. Afterward, all of the new occupants moved out, and because the rumors of strange phenomena worsened, this place was subsequently demolished. Even till this day, no property developer has dared to occupy this land.

  Right now, the land they were standing on was that hundred-year-old, unmarked burial site, and these demolished brick walls were……

  “According to the weather forecast, it’ll be raining tonight. Did the Ji family’s Second Miss bring an umbrella? Otherwise, it’ll be bad if you catch a cold while staying here alone.” Feng Ling snatched over Ji Mengran’s purse as she spoke, opening the zip to pour its contents onto the ground. As the things fell noisily on the floor, she lowered her eyes to look at the array of cosmetics and bank cards. With a sneer, she kicked them away, smiling imperceptibly. “You really didn’t bring an umbrella. It seems like you’ll be soaked tonight.”


  “You want me to stay here alone?” A chill ran down Ji Mengran’s back. Her lips were pale from fright, and she did not pay her damaged things any mind.

  “You won’t exactly be alone.” Feng Ling suddenly smiled coldly, throwing her a nasty look. “Tonight, there might be a large crowd of people rising from the ground to accompany you. Miss Ji doesn’t have to be too fearful.”


  “What exactly are you trying to do! I don’t want to stay here! Move aside! Let me go!” Ji Mengran’s body was covered in goosebumps as she shrieked, raising a hand to push her aside and escape.

  Feng Ling avoided her hands, grabbing her wrist and throwing her heavily back against the brick wall.

  “Here’s a simple warning for you. In the future, if you dare to follow Mrs. Mo, I’m afraid the consequences won’t be as simple as being left here for a night,” Feng Ling coldly said. “Miss Ji, have a good evening.”


  “What are you doing! Come back! Give me your phone!” Ji Mengran was terrified she would really be left here. Right now, she had nothing on her, and it was impossible to call a car. She threw herself forward to grab Feng Ling, as though she had lost her mind.

  However, she was cruelly pushed away by Feng Ling and could only stumble back to sit on the ground.

  —-

  A few minutes later, Feng Ling returned to the car and spoke to Ji Nuan. “Mrs. Mo, we can leave now.”


  From beginning to end, Xiao Ba was unaware of the situation. However, she saw that Ji Nuan appeared deep in thought, her expression cold. She did not dare to ask anything. When Feng Ling returned, she glanced at the time and softly said, “Boss Nuan, the people should still be at Xi Min Square. Are we still going?”


  “We’re going.” Ji Nuan closed the files in her hands. “Let’s go.”


  —-

  Ji Mengran struggled for a long time before she finally stood up, moving forward step by step. She thought to return to the cab she had taken here, but this abandoned place was like a maze. After looking for a long while, she finally returned to where she came from, but the driver had already left out of impatience.

  The sky had turned entirely dark, and as she was told, it began to rain. The formerly dark evening had now turned foggy. The cold wind gradually began to hit against her back, accompanied by the sharp, whining sounds of wind passing through the cracks in the brick walls. Each sound was even more terrifying than the one before.

  Ji Mengran’s face had turned white from the lack of blood. She hastily walked away from the area. However, even after arriving at a somewhat wide traffic road, she could not see any cars passing by.

  This was, after all, Hai Cheng’s most deserted and forsaken area. Typically, no one would pass by it. Even the Hai Cheng’s highway entrance did not reach this place, and it was even rarer for a car to drive through here.

  Recalling that Ji Nuan had intentionally driven through half of Hai Cheng to bring her here, Ji Mengran hatefully glared at the dark, wasteland and shouted in rage, “Ji Nuan, you better wait and see! Aaah!!!!”


  The surroundings were so quiet her voice did not even echo. There was only wind blowing from behind her back.

  The cold rain landed on her face, drip by drip. Ji Mengran hugged herself tightly in the cold as she gravely and fearfully glancing back at the demolished wasteland.

  Recalling the ghost sightings and strange phenomenon she had previously heard of, her legs weakened with fear.

  Ji Mengran gritted her teeth, turned away, and no longer dared to look. Standing under the rain, gradually turning heavier, she walked along the road while enduring the cold wind cutting her from behind. All of a sudden, a slanted brick wall inside the wasteland collapsed, frightening Ji Mengran into falling backward and landing on her butt—
