Zhu Yunya wiped the tears at the corners of her eyes and nodded. She followed Fang Chengtao’s gaze and looked at Lu Zijia.

“Master, what can we do to save our daughter? We can prepare whatever you need.”

Fang Chengtao helped his wife to sit down and said to Lu Zijia sincerely and respectfully.

Lu Zijia glanced at Fang Yingying, who was curled up in the corner of the bed, indifferently and said, “You don’t have to prepare anything. Just tell me the truth honestly.”

Judging from the female spirit’s face before, it seemed that she wasn’t a bad person when she was alive. Instead, she was a girl who had low self-esteem and was cowardly.

Once this kind of self-abased and cowardly person became paranoid, that person would definitely be several times more terrifying than ordinary people.

Fang Yingying must have done something to that female spirit for the female spirit to be onto her so persistently.

As soon as Lu Zijia spoke, the expressions of Fang Chengtao and his wife immediately froze and their eyes even glittered slightly, as if they were trying to hide something.

“You better think carefully before answering. Otherwise, I can’t help you either.”

Before Fang Chengtao and his wife spoke, Lu Zijia reminded them as if she saw through their minds.

Hearing Lu Zijia’s reminder, Fang Chengtao knew that he couldn’t hide it from her and he couldn’t help sighing heavily.

“Chengtao.” Realizing that her husband was going to tell the truth, Zhu Yunya grabbed his arm and signaled him to stop talking with her eyes anxiously.

That incident was suppressed with great difficulty. It had only been a year. If it attracted other people’s attention again, his daughter would live a hard life even if she was saved.

How would Fang Chengtao not know what she was thinking? However, their daughter was about to die right now. He couldn’t watch her die just like that.

Living a difficult life was better than losing one’s life.

In the end, Fang Chengtao still told the truth in detail.

It turned out that Fang Yingying always bullied a quiet, self-abased and cowardly high school female cla.s.smate in school a year ago. That female cla.s.smate was called Cheng Keqi.

Perhaps Cheng Keqi was bullied so badly the last time that she committed suicide by jumping off the roof of the school.

This incident caught a lot of attention in the school and the society back then.

In order to protect his daughter, Fang Chengtao could only go against his conscience and use his connections to suppress the matter. At the same time, he let his daughter transfer to another school to lie low.

And yet, even though the matter was suppressed, the other schools didn’t dare to take Fang Yingying in, so Fang Yingying stopped going to school this year.

Fang Chengtao only wanted to protect his daughter. He didn’t suppress or eliminate Cheng Keqi’s family. He even gave them a sum of money.

However, Cheng Keqi’s family refused to accept the money no matter what. They only wanted to seek justice for Cheng Keqi.

However, a year had pa.s.sed and Cheng Keqi’s family still hadn’t been able to seek justice for her.

And the culprit, Fang Yingying, who indirectly forced Cheng Keqi to die, was still living happily. She didn’t feel guilty at all because of what happened to Cheng Keqi.

Seeing that his daughter didn’t feel guilty at all, but went out to play every day and came back almost every night drunk, Fang Chengtao was extremely disappointed.

After some education, seeing that his daughter had no intention of changing at all and that his wife was stopping him, Fang Chengtao gave up completely and didn’t discipline his daughter anymore.
