Three times married to Yama
Chapter 75 Midnight Kneeling
My mother and Pei Jiayin followed Yan Jinyue and Pei Yu with their eyes until the two figures disappeared through the door.
"Ah Yin, what's your friend's temper like?" my mom suddenly asked me.
What is Yan Jinyue's temper?
After carefully reflecting on my time with Yan Jinyue these past few days, I think he has a pretty good temper. Apart from his true self being cold and gloomy, his clone is obviously much gentler.
So I replied, "He has a good temper. As long as Pei Yu doesn't provoke him or say anything outrageous, it'll be fine."
No one knows a son better than his mother. After hearing what I said, my mother showed a hint of sympathy for Pei Yu.
"That kid is tough and can take a beating. As long as we don't kill him, it's fine."
I,"……"
Did my mom misunderstand something? Yan Jinyue was definitely having a friendly conversation with Pei Yu, how could she possibly make a move?
Now, only I, my mother, Pei Jiayin, and the sleeping Pei Tiankuo are in the house.
My mother looked at Pei Tiankuo and sighed with a mixture of helplessness and worry. She said, "The Pei family's problems started about six months ago. At the time, we thought it was just an accident, but we never expected..."
"What happened six months ago?" I asked.
My mother took a deep breath before recounting what had happened six months ago.
Six months ago, the first person to have an accident was a cleaning lady who worked for the Pei family.
On an ordinary evening, Cao Yun, a cleaning lady, was passing by the Pei family garden on her way back to her room when she suddenly stood up straight, staring at a certain direction in the garden with a terrified expression as if she had seen something. But there was nothing there.
After a few seconds of stunned silence, Cao Yun suddenly knelt down on the ground, raised her hands above her head, and began to bow in the direction she had just been facing. As she bowed, she wore a stiff and eerie smile. After she finished bowing, she got up and left the garden as if nothing had happened.
This happened for three consecutive days. At first, no one noticed, but on the third day, Cao Yun was kneeling and praying in that direction when she was discovered by the Pei family's steward, which exposed the incident.
"Cao Yun, what are you doing in the garden so late at night?" Upon seeing Cao Yun kneeling, the butler immediately went forward and pulled her up from the ground.
Cao Yun, who was being pulled up, still had a strange smile on her face, which startled the butler. But soon the smile on Cao Yun's face disappeared, and she suddenly trembled violently, as if she had just woken up from a dream.
"Butler Li?" Cao Yun, now fully conscious, looked at the butler in front of her in confusion. "Why am I still here? Didn't I already go home?"
Butler Li glared at Cao Yun. "Are you playing dumb with me? What were you praying for in that direction? There's nothing there!"
Cao Yun looked in the direction that Butler Li pointed out. There was only a white camellia tree that the Pei family master liked the most, and nothing else.
Cao Yun froze, staring blankly at the housekeeper. "I didn't, Housekeeper Li! I don't remember anything at all! This is impossible!"
Seeing that Cao Yun didn't believe him, Butler Li immediately pulled up the video footage from the Pei family garden. When Cao Yun saw herself kneeling and bowing in the direction of the garden as if she had been hypnotized, her face turned pale instantly.
When Butler Li checked the surveillance footage, he also looked back a few days and found that Cao Yun had also exhibited this strange behavior a couple of days prior.
"Cao Yun, your mental state is not suitable for work. I'll give you a few days off. Rest well first," Butler Li said with a frown.
With the surveillance cameras right in front of her, Cao Yun had nothing to say and could only listen to the housekeeper, Li, who gave her a few days off to rest.
However, the accident still happened.
Cao Yun, who was supposed to be on vacation, mysteriously appeared at the Pei family garden at 10 p.m.
