Chapter 35
It’s Eldest Aunt
As the excavator finally arrived at the place where the female ghost was floating, Ye Yan was also calculating her plan in her heart.
“Yunbao, what are you doing?” Ye Yan squatted in front of Yunbao. “Can you help Eldest Aunt pick up the wallet there? It’s not convenient for me to go down in my high heels.” If Yunbao had not heard her thoughts, she might have been very willing to do this for her. However, she had heard Ye Yan’s thoughts and knew that she wanted to hurt her. Naturally, she did not want to go down.
“Eldest Aunt, it’s so tall here. Yunbao’s legs are too short to go down.” Yunbao blinked her big eyes and acted cute at her while looking for an opportunity to leave. Unexpectedly, Ye Yan blocked her way and did not give her any way out.
“Yunbao, are you afraid of me?” Ye Yan approached her step by step. Yunbao wanted to push her away, but at the critical moment, she could not use her strength. She pushed Ye Yan and stumbled a few steps back herself, almost falling.
How could this be? Yunbao subconsciously called her master several times, but no one answered. Could it be that she had been abandoned? Yunbao thought aggrievedly. That disappointment surged in her heart. No matter how hard she tried, she could not defeat the strength of an adult.
She looked helplessly in Gu Lin’s direction, hoping that he would notice the commotion here, but he was discussing work with Gu Luo and the others.
After the excavator finished resting, it began to operate again. The deafening noise sounded again, and the flying sand made it so that people could not open their eyes. Ye Yan took the opportunity to push Yunbao down and quickly turned around. She did not realize that a pair of eyes beside her had witnessed the entire process.
The pain she had imagined did not come. Yunbao stood steadily in the pit and did not even fall.
“Yunbao, I’m sorry.” It was Song Yun’s voice. “I had no choice. This is the only way to expose Ye Yan.”
“I thought Master didn’t want me anymore.” Yunbao’s low voice sounded. Song Yun blamed herself. “Fortunately, Master is still here. Master protected Yunbao, right?”
“In the future, I’ll tell you my plans. I’m sorry, Yunbao,” Song Yun apologized again.
The female ghost saw Yunbao in the pit and pointed below her. A corner of a sack was revealed.
That should be He Han’s corpse.
“Yunbao, shout and run there!” Song Yun commanded.
Yunbao jumped up. “Eldest Uncle! Third Uncle! Eldest Uncle! Third Uncle!” Yunbao tried her best to wave her hands to attract their attention. Finally, Gu Lin saw Yunbao in the pit.
“Stop the machine!” Gu Lin used the walkie-talkie to contact the person in the excavator. The machine finally stopped when it was a fist away from Yunbao.
“Pull her up!” Gu Lin instructed the professional team.
“Eldest Uncle!” Yunbao interrupted him. “There’s something in here.”
Something!? Ye Yan’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be… Impossible. That person clearly said that everything had been arranged!
Impossible, impossible! Ye Yan comforted herself. That damned little thing was really lucky! Ye Yan was so angry that she gritted her teeth until they almost shattered.
“Mommy, are you alright?” Gu Zi carefully held Ye Yan’s hand. Her mother had become so terrifying that she no longer recognized her.
Ye Yan shook off Gu Zi’s hand. “Aren’t you annoying?! Calling me mommy from morning till night!” She shouted loudly.
Gu Zi was so frightened that she could not speak. Tears welled up in her eyes. Gu Lin also noticed the commotion and ran over to hug Gu Zi. The girl bit her lips and cried silently, trying her best not to cry.
Ye Yan also realized what she had done and hurriedly apologized, “Zizi, I’m sorry. Mommy didn’t mean to shout at you. I’m sorry.” However, Gu Zi buried her face deep in Gu Lin’s arms, not wanting to respond to her.
“We found something!” The person digging shouted.
“I’ll settle the score with you later.” Gu Lin glared at Ye Yan and left with Gu Zi in his arms.
Damn it! Ye Yan thought. What did they dig up?
“It’s a sack,” the man reported, but when he opened it, the contents startled everyone.
It was a corpse. The corpse was highly decomposed. The smell of decay spread in the air after the bag was opened. Gu Luo and Gu Lin hurriedly covered the eyes of the children beside them, but Gu Zi was still so frightened that she could not say a word. She lay motionless in Gu Lin’s arms.
After such a thing, the project could only be suspended and the police came to deal with it.
“Yunbao, how could you go down there to play? Don’t you know that it’s very dangerous?” Gu Lin reprimanded Yunbao with a dark expression. If he had discovered Yunbao any later, her life might have been in danger! Even Gu Luo, who was usually gentle, was a little angry, but he was more afraid than angry.
