Feng Yuanlin still had some understanding of his subordinate. He was one of those solemn and serious types. There was no way he’d reveal his privacy in public. Sun Su was even more unlikely to wag her tongue too freely and stage a show to deceive him. The experiment just now must’ve been true.

Lin Chongchang, on the other hand, was dumbstruck. He was an atheist and his worldview was obviously badly shaken, such that he couldn’t recover his senses for a long time.

“Can I have a try?” Feng Yuanlin wasn’t usually a curious person, but an inexplicable spark of curiosity ignited in him at the moment. Is this talisman really effective?

Sun Su looked torn. “Director Feng, actually this talisman turns into ashes after several uses. This is the last one. This sort of talisman should have a limited number of uses.”

Director Feng was amazed. He didn’t expect that this talisman was still consumable. A Master must have really drawn it. If so, then everything had a logical explanation and the links between these traces could almost be pieced together into fact.

What Feng Yuanlin had thought, Lin Chongchang naturally did too. Officer Huang scratched his head, still somewhat puzzled. “So did they really run into a female ghost?”

Feng Yuanlin deliberated for a moment, before shaking his head and said, “What got into their heads was probably the handiwork of the Talisman Master. As for what they confess, even though it’s all true, it’s still their subjective feelings, after all. I’ve heard that some Masters are powerful enough to use camouflaging techniques. I’m sure that’s how those two mistook that master for a ghost.”

Officer Huang was immediately dumbstruck. If he had heard this in the past, he would have never believed it without first-hand experience and would have even thought it was ridiculous. But the facts were in front of him, so he had to believe it.

Lin Chongchang was also momentarily speechless, too shocked to say anything. His mood was a bit complicated. If supernatural beings really did exist in this world, perhaps his grandson could really see those ghosts and monsters. He found peace, but at the same time, felt pins and needles. He couldn’t understand why that Master, who saved his grandson, was slow to appear.

While the group was caught up in their individual shock and ruminating on their thoughts…

Feng Yuanlin’s office landline suddenly rang. He got up and immediately answered the phone, and said to Lin Chongchang, who was sitting on the sofa anxiously, “Elder Lin, I’ve got word from the traffic police that Haoxing has been found, unharmed. A police officer is already sending him over to the station.”

Lin Chongchang bounced up overjoyed, agile and not at all like an old man. “I knew Xingxing was blessed with good fortune and would be fine. By the way, what about the Master? I have to thank him properly.”

Feng Yuanlin narrowed his eyes, puzzled. “There was only Haoxing in the car.”

“Huh?” Was that Master just their conjecture? It was purely those two who abandoned the car and fled? Lin Chongchang was in a fog.

Feng Yuanlin shook his head at Lin Chongchang’s doubt and explained, “It should indeed be that Master who saved Haoxing. The officer reporting below said that they locked in on the car based on the license plate number we gave them. When many traffic officers surrounded and closed in on the car, it was still running and it only stopped when it was completely surrounded. But when they searched it, there was only Haoxing in the backseat, so it must have been the Master who didn’t want to expose himself.”

Lin Chongchang thought so too. Haoxing was only a few years old and couldn’t drive at all.

Soon, Lin Chongchang saw Lin Haoxing, who was completely the opposite from how overly frightened he imagined his grandson would be; he was alive and kicking as if he’d just returned from a trip, his face overflowing with smiles. Lin Chongchang was flabbergasted. It had been a long time since his grandson had laughed so happily.

“Xingxing, you scared grandpa to death. Fortunately, God has blessed us. I’ve been saying that our Xingxing is blessed with great fortune.” Lin Chongchang examined Lin Haoxing up and down. Seeing that he was in perfect condition and unhurt, only then did he put his heart at rest.

“It’s not God’s blessing, it’s Sister who saved me.” Lin Haoxing’s adorable delicate face was filled with adoration.

Lin Chongchang looked at Lin Haoxing in surprise. “Sister? How did she save you?” Although he already knew that someone had saved Lin Haoxing, he was still taken aback to hear that it was a girl.

“Yeah, Sister is awesome. As soon as she whirled a shot, a whole lot of them keeled over…” Lin Haoxing swallowed the word ‘ghost’, rolled his eyes, twisted his head to continue sucking the White Rabbit creamy candy Sister had given him, and grunted, “You won’t understand anyway.” How many times had he told them that he could see ghosts, yet no one believed him. Even his grandfather always looked worried, thinking he was sick, and didn’t believe him in the slightest, so he didn’t want to waste his breath.

Lin Chongchang: “…”

Lin Chongchang was a meticulous man. At a glance, he saw an extra red string on Lin Haoxing’s neck tied with a Pisces jade pendant that even had a little blemish on it. As an antique dealer, his eyes were sharp, so he could tell at a glance that this jade pendant was worth a few thousand. It was only because of some flaws that it was cheaper. It had an ordinary style and wasn’t worth much, but it looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

“Xingxing, did that sister give you this jade pendant?”

Lin Haoxing nodded and hid it in his clothes like a treasure, acting as if he was afraid of it being snatched away.

Lin Chongchang was immediately nonplussed and a bit jealous. It was just a worthless piece of damaged junk, so did he have to treat it like a treasure? But reminded of the Master’s saving grace, he didn’t force his grandson to take it off.

On the other hand, Feng Yuanlin and Officer standing on the side were confounded. It really was what they thought it would be. Someone had stepped in to save the day, and surprisingly, it was a woman.

Lin Chongchang thanked Feng Yuanlin and took his precious grandson back to his mansion.

Fan Ming and Lin Jingshi waited for news for a long time without seeing their son, and instead received a merciless phone call from Lin Chongchang, saying that he couldn’t trust them and so his grandson would stay with him for a while.

The two had no choice but to bow down to Lin Chongchang. However, after several days, Lin Chongchang never sent him back. Fan Ming was indifferent and still got up early and came home late as usual, obviously not so concerned about his crazed son, but Lin Jingshi missed him sorely. After speaking to Fan Ming several times, but getting no response, she had to go to Lin Chongchang’s mansion by herself in bitter anger.

Lin Chongchang was gratified to see his daughter coming. Although this mother was derelict in her duties, at the end of the day, she really loved her son beyond redemption. He looked at the reserved and apprehensive Lin Jingshi. “Fan Ming didn’t come with you?”

When Lin Jingshi heard her father asking about Fan Ming, she quickly tried to smooth things over for her husband, “H-He wanted to come and missed Xingxing, but he’s too busy. He shoulders all the company matters alone.” Her intention was to keep her father from castigating Fan Ming, but she didn’t expect it to be completely counterproductive.
