Chapter: 147 out of 513 – The truth behind the haunting (2)
Wen Wan woke up during lunchtime . Ji Man personally cooked lunch for her . It wasn’t because she wanted to treat her well . She just wanted to avoid Wen Wan getting food poisoning during her stay here .
Later in the afternoon, Ji Man went over to old madame’s courtyard .
After Ji Man had been chatting with old madame for a while, Ji Man mentioned Qian Lianxue and old madame responded, “Lianxue is quite pitiful . She’s Qian Yingchen’s older sister . She’s had to constantly drink herbal medicine since she was born . Xuan-er felt pity for her, and since she also likes Xuan-er, she entered this household as an honored concubine . ”
Based on Ji Man’s impression of Marquis Moyu, he definitely wasn’t the type of person that would feel unchecked sympathy . Instead of saying he felt pity for Qian Lianxue, it would be better to say Qian Yingchen was very valuable to Marquis Moyu .
In order for Marquis Moyu to continue showing care and concern towards Honored Concubine Xue, Qian Yingchen had to continue being important to Marquis Moyu .
Fine, she would admit that she was already biased against Marquis Moyu . Anyways, this person always gave her the impression that he did everything with purpose .
Qian Lianxue’s background could be considered simple and clean . She also had a good-natured personalty . She probably wouldn’t do anything outrageously evil . Ji Man thought that perhaps, she was being too suspicious of everyone and overthinking things .
Ning Yuxuan had already said that he would send over people, but Ji Man didn’t see a single shadow that evening . Holding onto the belief that the male lead was all-powerful, Ji Man still persuaded Wen Wan into sleeping early .
Nie Sangyu's servant girls slept on the floor of her room again and the lamps were also left lit .
When midnight arrived, Ji Man even silently counted out, “three, two, one” . As expected, the sound of a baby crying started on the roof .
However, this time, the sound of crying was accompanied with the sound of fighting . Many roof tiles were broken from the fighting before the sound of the crying fell from the roof and into the courtyard .
The courtyard was suddenly brightly illuminated . Ji Man hurriedly put on an outer robe and went outside to look .
A group of servants were holding up lanterns . At the center of the group, there was man holding a baby . Because the living baby was feeling unwell, it let out a plaintive cry .
As expected, the baby ghost hadn’t been real .
As expected, the baby ghost hadn’t been real .
Ning Yuxuan was standing by the side . “Mingjie take off that person’s mask . ”
Ning Mingjie was currently restraining the black-robed figure by his hands . Hearing these words, he took off the mask –
Alright, even after the mask was taken off and an honest-looking face was revealed, Ji Man still didn’t recognize the person .
The black-robed figure pursed his lips and glanced at Marquis Moyu, then his head tilted to the side and black blood dripped out of his lips . He was dead .
Ji Man retreated two steps and frowned . She had never seen someone actually commit suicide in real life .
Ning Mingjie handed the baby over a servant, as well as the corpse for the servants to deal with . Then, he briefly looked at Nie Sangyu and said, “Madam, there’s no reason for you to come out . You might have nightmares . ”
Ji Man thought; I didn’t want to come out, ah . But, it was so noisy outside . Everyone had a curious heart . How could she possibly not come out to see?
“So, the baby ghost turned out to be fake . ”
“So, the baby ghost turned out to be fake . ”
Marquis Moyu curved his lips and said, “It’s strange . We missed catching this person several times before . Usually, he never appears if he sees other people nearby . He’s certainly brave today . I had arranged for people to come here early in the day, but he still came . ”
Ji Man froze for a moment .
“Even though that black-robed figure committed suicide, it’s still possible to find some traces of clues,” Ning Yuxuan said, “I want to see, who tried to stretch their hand into my residence . ”
Ning Mingjie nodded, “It’s rather contemptible to use this type of a trick on women . ” Ning Mingjie believed that if you didn’t like someone, you should just directly assassinate him or her . Why act out a fake haunting?
Ji Man yawned . Now that they knew a living person had been behind everything, the household should be able to stop worrying . It wasn’t early anymore . The rest of this matter could be given to the men to handle . It was time for her to sleep .
After Ji Man returned to her room, she started to tell Wen Wan what had happened .
With her eyes half-opened and leaning back on a pillow, Wen Wan listened . After Nie Sangyu was done talking, tears suddenly started to fall out of Wen Wan’s eyes .
“Exactly who hates me this much?” Her beautiful, delicate tears resembled fallen raindrops on pear blossoms . “My baby, I lose it just like that . I have nightmares every night, and I haven’t been able to peacefully sleep . If I find out who’s behind this, I’ll definitely pay them back a hundred, no, a thousand times!” As Wen Wan said this, her face suddenly looked ferocious and sinister . Her voice had also become malevolent .
Ji Man was shocked by this change . Feeling there was something off about this, she asked, “It’s not like you actually harmed someone’s baby . Why did you get so afraid when you heard that baby crying?"

Wen Wan paused . She lowered her eyes and stop speaking .
Ji Man shrugged and just assumed that Wen Wan wasn’t very brave .
The next day, Marquis Moyu showed the baby to the rest of the household . The innocent baby with unknown origins was starting to look slightly purple . Its eyes were shut and it kept wailing .
Wen Wan kindly said, “Send the baby to a temple to be raised . After all, it’s still a life . ”
Marquis Moyu went with her recommendation and ordered the servants to send the baby away . Then, he ordered for all of the paper talismans and other like-items to be removed from the residence .
Ning Yuxuan looked at everyone as he said, “Don’t mention this matter again in the future . I’ll definitely find out who the hidden criminal is and severely punish him or her . ”
