Liang Zhou looked at the anxious Gao Wen before Ye Xin who was preparing to flee. Then, she asked tonelessly, "Miss Ye, are you afraid? Don't be afraid. I'm not a ghost. I just didn't die."1

Ye Xin gritted her teeth before she resolutely turned around to face Liang Zhou. She knew there was no way for her to retreat now. She could only force herself to remain calm and tried not to tremble before she said, "Who's afraid? What's there to be afraid of? Moreover, you're the one who wants to harm me. Everything is your fault! I want to call the police and report you for abduction."

Liang Zhou looked at Ye Xin, who was clearly only outwardly fierce but inwardly weak, before she laughed lightly. Then, she said, "Ye Xin, I really admire you. If we talk about shamelessness, there's no one who can compare to you and Mu Qing."

Mu Qing, who was standing nearby, wore a livid expression on his face.

One of the elders who had recognized Liang Zhou first asked in confusion, "You… Aren't you Mu Qing's wife? What are you doing here?"

Liang Zhou leaned forward slightly and said, "I apologize, granduncles. I'm injured so I can't greet you properly."

Then, Liang Zhou gestured for Xiao Yu to turn her wheelchair around so she could face the others. Her back was facing Mu Qing, who was staring intently at her. She did not want to look at him anymore. Her breathing was a little weak as though just speaking had taken a lot out of her.

At this time, Xiao Yu brought a portable microphone out and handed it to Liang Zhou.

Clearly, Liang Zhou had come prepared.

Song Ning walked up to Liang Zhou and gently held her hand before she leaned over and said, "Aunty, why don't we return to the hospital first? Mu Chen and Cheng Che will deal with the matters here. I'll accompany you to the hospital, okay?"

Liang Zhou's gaze was gentle as she looked at Song Ning and said, "Song Ning, thank you. I appreciate your kindness, but there are some things that I have to do today. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't have this chance in the future."

After Liang Zhou finished speaking, she gently pushed Song Ning's hand away.

Song Ning looked at Liang Zhou helplessly.

Xiao Yu looked at Song Ning and tearfully said, "Young Madam, don't stop Madam. This morning, someone came to the hospital and replaced Madam's medicine with poison. If I didn't forget something and return to the ward in time, Madam would be gone by now."

Song Ning was shocked. "Who was it?"

Then, Song Ning turned to look at Mu Chen and Cheng Che who were also at a loss.

Cheng Che asked Xiao Yu, "Where was the bodyguard?"

Xiao Yu shook her head and said, "He was lured away."

Mu Chen and Cheng Che's expressions changed drastically.

Liang Zhou waved her hand, indicating that they did not need to discuss the matter anymore. Then, she raised the microphone to her mouth and said, "Forget it. I didn't die. It just means that my life isn't meant to end yet. The heavens are telling me that my mission hasn't been completed so I can't die yet. I came today to complete my mission."

The inexplicable conversation attracted everyone's attention.

One of the elders of the Mu family could not help but ask, "What do you mean by this?"

Then, the elders of the Mu family turned to look at Mu Qing to ask for an explanation.

However, before they could say anything, Liang Zhou said, "I'm here to tell you a story. After listening to my story, I think everyone's doubts will be resolved. When I'm telling my story, I hope everyone can keep an eye on the people here. No one is allowed to leave; not even one person can be missing. After all, the story won't be exciting if they're not here."

A strange smile appeared on Liang Zhou's face as she spoke.

Liang Zhou laughed softly before she said, "My sister, Liang Zhen, was a writer. However, I think she wouldn't even be able to come up with such an unbelievable story. What a pity she died so early and couldn't see the fate of those who had hurt her. It's really true that the heavens are watching our every move. If you do bad things, there'll definitely be retribution."
