Chapter 1240: Burdensome gifts (2)

Yan.

Damn! She didn\'t expect Old Madam Ji to catch her and that too easily at that. Song Yan turned her gaze back at Old Madam Ji and then shook her head, "You are misunderstanding, Old Madam Ji. I was only looking at my ghost servants. They sympathize with you and thus they were asking me to help you."

If she were to say that Ji Ziyi was in the room, the latter would be so surprised that she might end up losing control of her Yin energy. If she was alone then it would be fine but such a surge of emotional yin energy might cause trouble for these four people sitting in her living room.

She then said, "Old Madam Ji, if you don\'t mind can you give me a few days? It\'s not an easy task for me to let the living see the dead. It needs some preparation as well and I need to ask your daughter as well. Unless she doesn\'t want to meet you, I hope that you will understand."

As she spoke she pushed the two gifts that Old Madam Ji and Shen Hanjing brought with them.

Old Madam Ji\'s expression turned exhausted. She was not that old as she married earlier and gave birth to her eldest son when she was only eighteen. With the care she took of herself, she looked as if she was in her fifties. But in just one night she aged as if she was in her eighties.

"I understand, Master Song," old Madam Ji didn\'t want to haunt her daughter even in her death. Thus she agreed with Song Yan with a sharp nod even if she was tired.

She then pushed the Thunder Stone back to Song Yan and said, "This was not a bribe, Master Song. This is something that we brought to show our goodwill. If not for you, my sons would have died one after another and my husband and I wouldn\'t even know what happened to them."

"The worst thing would have been that murderer getting everything that belonged to our children," stated Old Master Ji with a soft expression. "Without you, our lives would have taken a turn for the worse, Master Song. So don\'t feel hesitant while taking this gift."

Shen Hanjing also pushed his gift forward and then looked at Song Yan before stating, "Master Song, I brought this emperor jade for you because I wanted to show you gratitude because of you, I was able to find the truth about Ziyi. Compared to what you have done for Ji Ziyi this is nothing, so please don\'t feel burdened by this gift."

Song Yan: "..." I am sorry, I do feel burdened.

"This..."

"Master Song keep those gifts," Yi Yu interrupted Song Yan with an awkward expression. "Sister Ziyi says that even if you refuse they wouldn\'t listen and even if you refuse they will only push those gifts back at you."

Song Yan sighed after hearing Yi Yu\'s words. She rubbed the centre of her forehead as she nodded while seeing the Ji family and Shen Hanjing off. Once she closed the door, an exaggerated sigh left her lips as she looked at the gifts that were left behind by them.

"This is going to be annoying," she muttered feeling quite stifled. Though Song Yan didn\'t mind riches, she knew that these things came with hopes and desires. It was enough to tell her that they were going to be troublesome.

When Song Yan was troubled by the gifts Ji Ziyi gurgled once again and Yi Yu turned to look at her before saying, "This is really not the time to say something like that,"

More gurgles.

"Master Song... she ...she says that she doesn\'t want to meet them, you should refuse them," Yi Yu told Song Yan with a bitter expression that matched Song Yan\'s.

"What do you think I was doing?" Song Yan questioned with a helpless expression.

She then turned to look at Ji Ziyi who obviously wanted to see her brothers and fiance. She couldn\'t help but say, "I know why you do not want to meet them but you don\'t need to be so reluctant. We can do something about your appearance as well. Besides what I can your parents and Mister Shen are quite affected by your death if you don\'t meet them then I am afraid that they will end up losing their will to live."

Ji Ziyi\'s eye turned red as it flickered left and right but she didn\'t say anything. Song Yan naturally didn\'t force her and simply asked her to think about it.

She then took her leave from the house, she was going to take a look at Xue Ping\'s corpse. As she wasn\'t the one who took Xue Ping\'s life, that woman\'s soul was still intact, if Xue Ping returned as a grudging soul, Song Yan would have another malicious soul to deal with something that she didn\'t want to do.

She went to her garage and picked up a low-key car before heading towards the warehouse where Ji Ziyi and the rest had dealt with Xue Ping.

Because the warehouse was a place where three corpses were found, the police sealed off the area after receiving the news. Song Yan didn\'t want to be caught dealing with something tricky and used an invisibility talisman before heading over to the inside of the warehouse.

She followed the resentment waves that were flooding through the backyard to the inside of the warehouse and entered the area where Xue Ping\'s corpse was hanging. After a few days and a night, Xue Ping\'s body was half-eaten by the scavengers and the predators roaming around the area. Now she looked badly mangled and the smell that wafted off from her corpse was simply beyond Song Yan\'s limits!
