After helping Lu Yinan apply the medicine, Lu Miao and Gu Shiyan went upstairs together. Suddenly, Lu Miao remembered that Lu Yinan’s current room used to be Gu Shiyan’s.

As Lu Miao was contemplating how to kindly suggest that Gu Shiyan should go upstairs, she saw Gu Shiyan naturally heading towards his original room on the second floor. On the other hand, Lu Yinan bid her good night with a smile and went upstairs to the third floor without any objection.

Lu Miao exchanged glances with Gu Shiyan and rubbed her chin. Just yesterday, Lu Yinan and Gu Jinxi had almost had a tragic confrontation over the rooms, and neither was willing to give in. How come Lu Yinan was so cooperative today? Could something have happened without her knowledge?

Shaking her head, Lu Miao decided not to dwell on it. It would be best if they could live together peacefully. She didn’t want to think too much about it and simply returned to her room.

After putting on a mask and a hat, she took out her tablet and opened the short video app. She hadn’t planned to livestream today, but she still needed to deal with the matter of the girl who was troubled by the yin peach blossom yesterday. Also, she needed to provide meticulous guidance for the girl’s solo ritual.

She logged into her account and casually checked her balance. To her surprise, after deducting all the gifts and platform shares from her recent livestreams, she had nearly seven hundred thousand in her account.

Even though she often forgot to livestream and rarely did it, plus she had never taken any business cooperation, she didn’t expect to earn so much money. No wonder everyone was eager to get into the livestreaming industry; it really was a fast way to make money for ordinary people.

She transferred the money to her bank account and opened the charity fund’s website. She made a donation of one hundred thousand as a good deed.

Then, she returned to the app and instead of going live, she found the account of the girl from last night and initiated a video call with her.

The call was answered almost immediately; the girl seemed to have been waiting by her phone.

However, today there were two girls on the screen. Besides the girl with a baby face from last night, there was another girl who appeared slightly more mature.

At this moment, the baby-face girl looked so nervous that she was almost on the verge of tears. When she saw Lu Miao on the screen, she panicked and blurted out, “Young… Missy, something bad happened.”

Lu Miao furrowed her eyebrows slightly. “Did your phone screen go dark when you went to sleep last night?”

The girl nervously nodded and then immediately shook her head.

“What do you mean?” Lu Miao asked, puzzled.

The girl tried to swallow hard and then stammered, “After I… after I finished the livestream last night, following your instructions, I set the talisman as my screensaver and set the phone screen to never turn off. But then, last night, the power suddenly went out, and my phone’s battery didn’t last until morning. And… and then, when I woke up this morning, I saw…”

Seemingly recalling something terrifying, the girl’s pretty face was filled with horror. “I saw a pile of inexplicable things on the coffee table in the living room. ”

“Inexplicable things?” Lu Miao tapped her fingertips on the table. “Let me see.”

The girl hesitantly picked up her phone and got up, and the other girl next to her held her hand to reassure her.

As the screen moved, Lu Miao quickly saw the terrifying things that scared the girl.

There were neatly arranged stacks of money, but it wasn’t real currency; it was incense money!

In addition to the incense money, the other half of the coffee table displayed a set of vibrant red wedding clothes, along with a phoenix crown and some jewelry.

Together, they formed a complete bridal outfit.

Placed next to the incense money, the visual effect was exceptionally eerie!

The doll-like girl’s voice trembled as she spoke, “I’m sorry. I know you didn’t want anyone else to witness the ritual, but I was too scared, so I called my best friend, Ning Yun, to accompany me.”

Ning Yun, who was beside her, comforted her in a soft voice, “It’s okay, don’t be afraid. I’ll be with you.”

Then, Ning Yun took the phone and tried to remain calm as she asked Lu Miao on the other side of the screen, “Master, what exactly are these things?” Lu Miao raised her hand and pressed her temple. “These are gifts from Han Lin to her as part of the marriage proposal.”

“Marriage proposal?” Ning Yun’s expression changed upon hearing this. “Yes, when the gifts are brought in, it means Keke has accepted and agreed to the marriage.”

Lu Miao was also in a dilemma. It seemed that Han Lin was determined to marry Keke. If the power hadn’t gone out last night and the talisman was in place, the gifts wouldn’t have been able to enter. But now that the gifts were inside, it became troublesome.

All the things she had prepared earlier were now useless.

The key issue was that Keke was miles away from her, and even the fastest flight couldn’t get her here in time.

There were many things she couldn’t handle remotely.

Keke was scared to the point of crying upon hearing this. “I… I don’t want to marry him. Master, please save me. I really don’t want to marry a ghost.” Ning Yun, who was at the side, also pleaded for mercy.

“He doesn’t just want to marry you. He made a mistake that prevented him from reincarnating. Now, he’s using the marriage to take your soul and make you suffer for him so that he can reincarnate.”

Keke’s legs went weak and she fell to the ground. She cried and shouted,” Master, save me, save me. As long as you can save me, I’ll give you as many

Angels Descent as you want.””

“He treats you well not out of affection, but because he’s using you. Never easily believe a man’s words, whether they’re alive or dead!”

Lu Miao sighed and checked the time.

It was already past nine in the evening, and there were less than three hours left until midnight.

She hoped they still had time to resolve this.

Taking a deep breath, she said directly, “The things I need can’t be bought at this hour. Both of you need to find something at home, anything, and assemble it into a life-size doll, like a human figure. Then draw the facial features on a piece of paper and stick it on the doll.”

“After that, dress the doll in that set of wedding clothes and put on the jewelry.

Finally, use Keke’s fingertip blood to draw eyes on the doll’s eye sockets.”

“Use this doll as Keke’s substitute and place it on the sofa next to the gifts.”

“Remember, the wedding party will arrive at midnight sharp.lt had to be done before midnight!”

Keke and Ning Yun instantly panicked and immediately began to look for things in the house to make dolls.

However, in order to make it into a puppet, there had to be at least a skeleton that could support it.

They searched frantically, sweating profusely, but couldn’t find anything suitable. In the end, Ning Yun pulled open a wardrobe, forcibly broke the clothes hanger rod, and combined it with some flexible coat hangers.

With Lu Miao’s remote guidance, they struggled for over two hours before they finally managed to create a roughly humanoid figure and then used paper to make a head with facial features.

Checking the time, it was already half-past eleven..
