"Hello, Mr. Fan. My name is Feng Nian. Your daughter, Fan Lingling, asked me to come over." Feng Nian directly explained her intentions.
"Lingling." When Fan Rui heard Fan Lingling's name, he stood up without thinking. He missed his daughter. It had been a few years, but there had been no news of Lingling. The child's mother had also become absent-minded and often said that she had seen her daughter. Just like just now, she also said that she had seen Fan Lingling.
"She's right in front of you, if you're willing to see her." Feng Nian was worried that Fan Rui would not be able to accept this fact. Moreover, she was a stranger. Ordinary people would not easily believe the words of a stranger they had only met once. If Fan Rui was willing to see Fan Lingling, the effect would be many times better than her explanation.
"Yes, I want to see my daughter." Fan Rui suppressed the sadness in his voice. How could he not understand the meaning? Fan Lingling was in front of him, but he could not see her. This meant that his daughter was no longer alive.
Feng Nian used some ox's tears to brush past Fan Rui's eyes.
Soon, Fan Rui saw Fan Lingling.
"Child." Fan Rui stood up and wanted to pull Fan Lingling into his arms, but his hand passed through Fan Lingling's transparent body. He tried his best to suppress his cries. He did not dare to let Wang Lan, who was busy in the kitchen, know as this would aggravate Wang Lan's condition.

During dinner time, Wei Zhen and Feng Nian stayed at the Fan family's house. Fan Rui and Wang Lan even set up an empty bowl and chopsticks on the table. They had been doing this ever since Fan Lingling left home. The Fan family had always kept Fan Lingling's seat.
Fan Lingling was sitting in her seat. It had been a long time since she sat with her parents.
"It's been a long time since our house has been so lively. Lingling, eat more." Wang Lan picked up a piece of meat and placed it in her empty bowl.
Fan Rui wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve. He had never thought that meeting his daughter would be like this.
Even if the two elders of the Fan family wanted to extend the dinner time, there would still be a time when the party would end.
————
Wei Zhen and Feng Nian left the Fan family together. Fan Lingling's face was still stained with tears.
In the Fan family, Feng Nian briefly explained her intentions to Fan Rui. If Fan Lingling and the child were to reincarnate, they would need to be worshipped by the family. Fan Rui agreed with tears in his eyes. He had never thought that the daughter he had raised would end up almost becoming a lonely soul.
"Where are you going? I'll give you a ride." Wei Zhen could not help but ask when he saw that Feng Xiang was deep in thought.
"Let's go to—" Before Feng Nian could finish her sentence, a few people blocked their path.
The leader was a man who was about 1.6 meters tall. He had a fierce face and was a little bald, but his hair was covered in a thick layer of hair oil. He was Yu Meiqiang.
Yu Meiqiang glanced at Feng Nian wretchedly and said with a fake smile, "Master Wei, you interfered in the transportation industry of Zun City behind my back. You don't seem to be so kind."
Feng Nian could tell that these people were here to cause trouble for Wei Zhen. If she helped out, would Master Wei give her some labor fees? She heard that Master Wei had always been generous. The labor fees would likely be enough to buy her a month's worth of snacks.
Before she could ask Wei Zhen if there was any labor fee, Wei Zhen had already started fighting with them. In terms of numbers, the people who were looking for trouble had the absolute advantage. However, in terms of skills, they were far inferior to Wei Zhen. From the looks of it, they did not have the chance to attack. In about five minutes, Wei Zhen had already knocked four of them to the ground. The remaining few were more or less injured and did not dare to go forward.
Wei Zhen patted the dust off his sleeves and said to Feng Nian, "Let's go. I'll send you back."
However, in that instant, he and Feng Nian both sensed that something was wrong with Fan Lingling. Fan Lingling's hair began to lengthen. Countless black hair floated in the air, and resentment gradually filled the surroundings.
Feng Nian cursed in her heart. Fan Lingling was suddenly filled with resentment. It was obvious that she was targeting the people in front of her. No matter what grudges the people in front of her had with it, she could not let Fan Lingling hurt someone just like that. It was not easy for her to prepare for reincarnation. She could not give up halfway.
"Fan Lingling, stop!" She shouted, hoping that Fan Lingling would stop. However, Fan Lingling did not stop. Instead, she wrapped her hair around Yu Muqiang's neck.
Yu Meiqiang felt his vision go dark, and the air gradually thinned. He never thought that he would be targeted by a ghost while finding trouble. He was pulled into the air by Fan Lingling's hair.
With a splash, Feng Nian used a small peachwood knife to cut off the hair around Yu Meiqiang.
Without the support of the hair, he fell heavily to the ground.
"Why aren't you leaving yet?" Feng Nian shouted at the few people who were rooted to the ground. Although she did not know what relationship Yu Meiqiang had with Fan Lingling, she could not let Fan Lingling take Yu Meiqiang's life, unless Fan Lingling wanted her soul to dissipate forever.
Yu Meiqiang was half carried and half dragged away by the others. Fan Lingling was unwilling to give up and still wanted to chase after him, but Feng Nian stopped her in time.

In Feng Nian's rented house.
Fan Lingling gently patted the child and sang a lullaby, but its face was covered in tears.
The female ghost and the two paper figurines silently shifted their gazes from Fan Lingling to Feng Nian. Just now, Fan Lingling had clearly been trapped in an umbrella by Feng Nian and brought back. There were talismans stuck to the umbrella.
After returning, Fan Lingling hugged the child and refused to let go. Her tears never stopped. They did not dare to ask. Nothing had happened when they went out, so why was she tied up so badly after just going out? It seemed that they could not offend Feng Nian easily. Thinking of this, the female ghost and the two paper figurines silently moved towards the corner.
The atmosphere in the room was extremely heavy. Feng Nian sighed heavily. "I know you feel terrible, but you have to think about your parents, your child, and them. Everyone wants you to live freely in your next life." It was difficult for ordinary people to accept that they could not kill their enemies, let alone Fan Lingling, who had almost become a vengeful spirit.
"It's not that that we're not taking revenge. It's not time yet." After saying this, she stood up. Fan Lingling was still immersed in sadness and hatred, but she could not stop the work she was preparing. No matter what, she could not stop sending Fan Lingling and the child to reincarnate. She had to follow her original plan. Before she left, she glanced at the female ghost and paper figurines. "Take good care of it and the child."
The female ghost and paper figurines nodded like chickens pecking at rice, afraid that they would anger Feng Nian.

"What? B-buy a house?!" When Xiao Jiasheng heard that Feng Nian wanted him to buy a house, the first thought that popped into his mind was that the two of them were developing a little too quickly. Although Feng Nian had already met his grandmother and mother, they did not seem to have experienced the stage of being in love before entering the stage of marriage?
Feng Nian saw that Xiao Jiasheng's mouth was agape and thought that he was worried about the price of the house. She explained, "It's just buying a house in Weng Village. The cost should not be high. This is one of the keys to getting Fan Lingling to leave."
Oh, so it was about Fan Lingling. Just now, he thought that Feng Nian wanted him to buy a house so that they could live together after marriage. He seemed to be overthinking.
"Xiao Jiasheng, why are you hesitating? Do you want Fan Lingling to continue following behind you with the child?" Feng Nian saw Xiao Jiasheng's thoughtful expression and thought that Xiao Jiasheng was unwilling to buy the house in Weng Village.
The thought of Fan Lingling's head rolling around on the ground made Xiao Jiasheng immediately pick up his phone and find someone to buy the house that Feng Nian had specified.
