Shen Nian chose a landmark restaurant in Jinghai, where the average cost per person was nearly four or five figures, and the price behind each dish on the menu was an astronomical figure.

The restaurant is located on the top floor of a landmark building in Jinghai, and through huge floor-to-ceiling windows, you can see the entire night view of Beijing.

Although some of Shen Yingwei's netizens came from well-off families, most of them were from ordinary backgrounds and had never seen such a scene before. They called her "Sister Shen Nian" even more warmly.

One of them even recognized Shen Nian as the most popular metaphysical streamer at the moment, and together with the others, they immediately took out their phones to follow him.

Shen Nian curved her lips into a slight smile and gave a faint reply.

Shen Yingjia said somewhat sourly, "We've known each other for so long, and you've never treated me to a meal. These people are only meeting you for the first time."

Shen Nian: "...Do I need to remind you what you did when we first met?"

Shen Yingjia immediately wilted: "Isn't it okay for people to admit their mistakes and correct them?"

"That's why I brought you along, wasn't it?"

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, Shen Nian stood up, about to lead them away, when suddenly someone pointed to a tall building outside the window and said in a trembling voice, "It looks like... someone is about to jump off the building."

Shen Nian looked in the direction he pointed and saw a thin figure standing on the top of the nearly 100-story building.

It appears to be a woman.

Many people also noticed this horrifying scene, and some have already taken out their phones to call the police and fire department.

"It's none of our business, don't worry about it."

"Where do you live? I'll have the driver take you there."

Shen Nian's driver was already waiting downstairs.

The group boarded the car one by one. Shen Nian, holding onto the car door, turned around as if sensing something and saw a black figure plummeting straight down from a height of ten thousand meters.

She smelled a strange, fishy, ​​and rotten odor.

Perhaps all those who are about to die are like this.

Without thinking much, she closed the car door and told the driver to start the car.

After dropping the group off at their hotel, Shen Nian and Shen Yingjia returned to the Shen family home.

Shen Yingjia said with some worry, "Shen Yingwei has been arrested. How are you going to explain this to your uncle and aunt?"

"They favor Yingwei the most, won't they think you did it on purpose...?"

Shen Nian smiled nonchalantly: "What's there to be afraid of? Besides, I have an accomplice."

Shen Yingjia: "...Who wants to be your accomplice?"

"Just tell the truth. I didn't force her to do it."

As soon as the two entered the mansion, they bumped into Song Daiqing, who looked anxious.

"Shen Nian, what exactly happened to your sister?"

There are still some differences between the Shen family and the Gu family.

The Gu family does not believe in metaphysics or feng shui, and has not had any contact with any people from the esoteric arts over the years, so they were unaware of the guild's existence.

However, the Shen family started out gambling on stones, and they not only believed in feng shui but also maintained contact with many esoteric practitioners.

Master Liaochen was one of them.

I also have a rudimentary understanding of China's special management departments.

They knew that the Special Administration Bureau did not follow normal procedures in handling and judging cases, and could not be measured by normal thinking.

As soon as Shen Yingwei was detained, the guild issued an official document and handed it to Song Daiqing in person.

No matter how prestigious Song Daiqing's family background was, she could not contend with such an existence.

If Shen Yingwei were detained by a secular administrative organization, the Shen family could use their connections or resources to bail her out.

However, the Xuanmen Guild clearly does not have such a channel.

Shen Nian glanced at her and said calmly, "Shen Yingwei helped Master Chen refine forbidden items with the intention of harming living people. She has been detained and is awaiting trial."

"...How could that be?"

Song Daiqing frowned and said, "Yingwei has always been kind since she was little, how could she do such a thing? Did Liaochen force her to do it?"

Shen Nian sneered: "Whether she was forced or not is not for you to decide, nor is it for me to decide."

Were you present when she was taken away?

"Yes, I'm here."

The next moment, Song Daiqing raised her hand and slapped her.

"You were there, why didn't you protect your sister? Why did you just watch her being taken away?"

"Auntie, what are you doing!"

Shen Yingjia was stunned. She didn't expect Song Daiqing to hit Shen Nian directly. She quickly stood in front of Shen Nian to protect her.

"This has nothing to do with Shen Nian. Shen Yingwei was trying to harm people, and it was Shen Nian who saved us; otherwise, we would all be dead by now!"

"Snapped!"

Another sharp crack rang out, and Shen Yingjia also received a slap from Song Daiqing.

"I'm disciplining my daughter, you have no right to say anything!"

The third aunt, who had been watching the scene unfold, rushed over when she saw her son being beaten, pulling Song Daiqing away: "You know Xiao Jia isn't your son, what right do you have to hit him?"

She, as his own mother, has never been able to bring herself to hit her son.

Shen Yingjia said, "Mom, I'm telling the truth. Shen Yingwei took us to the haunted school building and made us play a ghost-summoning game. When the ghosts came, she ran away and left us there. If it weren't for Shen Nian, I wouldn't have seen you tonight!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xi became even more enraged and slapped Song Daiqing across the face: "So, Song Daiqing, your daughter tried to kill my son, and you're still protecting that murderer!"

"Shen Nian was merely upholding justice by turning against her own family! You actually harmed two innocent children; you have no conscience at all!"

"What kind of bewitching drug did Shen Yingwei give you that made you abandon even your own daughter and nephew?!"

Shen Nian looked at Song Daiqing and raised her hand to touch her face.

It hurts, but it doesn't hurt.

Song Daiqing was just an ordinary person, delicate and weak. How much strength could she possibly have? Shen Nian barely felt any pain.

But that doesn't mean anyone can lay a hand on her.

While Song Daiqing and Lin Xi were entangled, Shen Nian stepped forward and kicked Song Daiqing in the chest.

She was truly made of paper; with just one kick, she lightly bumped into the wall behind her.

Shen Nian said slowly and deliberately, "Not only was she at the scene, but I forgot to tell you, it was I who reported the case and had Shen Yingwei taken away."

"Do you hate me?"

She looked down at Song Daiqing: "I only did the right thing, and you're already yelling at me to kill me."

"Shen Yingwei has done so many wrong things, have you ever punished her even once?"

"Sometimes I really wonder if Shen Yingwei has bewitched you, making you so unable to distinguish right from wrong and so prone to distorting the truth."

She raised her hand to press on Song Daiqing's chest and abdomen, and felt two broken ribs.

"If you lay a hand on me again, it won't just be these two ribs that get broken, Madam Shen."

Song Daiqing gasped in pain, "You unfilial daughter...you unfilial daughter! I'm going to tell your grandfather to kick you out of the family! The Shen family has truly brought back a scourge!"

"Suit yourself. You can always see who gets kicked out of the house."

The Shen family's private doctor carried Song Daiqing away.

Shen Zhaozhang also rushed over upon hearing the news. He glanced at Shen Nian and said, "No matter what, she is still your biological mother. How could you lay a hand on her?"

Shen Nian retorted, "So I'm just supposed to stand there motionless and let her hit and scold me?"

"She's your mother, so she has the right to hit you and scold you. What child can't be hit or scolded by their own parents?"

Shen Nian sneered: "But that's on the condition that you actually raised me."

"You gave birth to her but did not raise her; you have done me no favor. If it weren't for the fact that you gave birth to this child, she would already be dead, instead of just having two broken ribs."

"You...you're a complete scourge!"

Shen Zhaozhang was so angry that he turned and left.

Lin Xi held Shen Yingjia's hand tenderly, checking the wounds on his face and body.

Then she looked at Shen Nian: "Nian Nian... thank you for saving Xiao Jia. I was wrong before. Whatever compensation you want, I will send it to you."

Shen Nian: "...Just give me five million."
