1205 I Want to Make You Stay 83 (2/2)

”Were my eyes playing tricks on me, then?” the crewmember murmured to himself while rubbing his head.

An Xiaoning did not discover anything unusual with the corpse either. Seeing that she did not say anything, Wang Jinsheng and Team Leader Zhang both came to a consensus to continue incinerating the corpses. It was the best way to solve the problem.

To their astonishment, a black luxury limousine began driving toward them all of a sudden.

The limousine stopped beside them, and eight burly men who were dressed in black alighted from it. They stood in two rows, after which an elderly man who had a head full of white hair alighted from the car. He began walking toward An Xiaoning and the rest together with his bodyguards.

”You must be the legendary Ms. An,” the elderly man said with a smile.

”You are…?” An Xiaoning asked, trying to recall if she had seen him anywhere before.

”I'm a member of the Gong family from H Nation.”

An Xiaoning immediately realized who he was. He was the patriarch of the Gong family, who always kept a low profile.

”Oh, I see, it's old Mr. Gong. Pardon me for my ignorance.”

”Don't say that. I rarely go out, and I've never been on the news before. It's only understandable that you don't know who I am, Ms. An. I heard a piece of insider news about the appearance of mutated corpses here. Is that true?”

”Yes, but we've already incinerated them.”

After taking a look at the two coffins, the elderly patriarch said to An Xiaoning with a smile, ”Ms. An, to be honest, these two corpses were buried by our family. You can't touch them.”

An Xiaoning said in puzzlement, ”Mr. Gong, could you tell me the reason? I'm sure you're aware that this burial ground has the optimal conditions for mutation. We can't leave the corpses untouched. We're worried that the zombie incident will repeat again.”

”I know, that's why I came here personally to talk to you guys about something. May we discuss it in my car?”

An Xiaoning and Team Leader Zhang looked at each other before conceding with a nod, ”Alright.”

They followed the elderly Mr. Gong into the car. There were only four of them inside. Noticing that the sky was about to turn dark, An Xiaoning said, ”Mr. Gong, just tell us the gist of it. We're running short on time.”

”Okay, here's the thing. The pair of twins in the coffin are my biological sisters and they're actually not dead yet. They're merely just hibernating, that's why it appears that they're moving. We'll have to start from fifty years ago…”

It turned out that when Mr. Gong was 29 years old fifty years ago, his father was involved in an extramarital affair with a woman who was about the same age as his sister. The elderly Mr. Gong's father was bewitched by his mistress and would often stay out late, completely neglecting his wife and family. Mr. Gong's mother was greatly disappointed and thus stopped trying to convince him to go home. However, Mr. Gong's younger sisters were extremely indignant and constantly tried to provoke their father's mistress. They even beat her up and caused her to have a miscarriage. Mr. Gong's father cut off their financial resources because of that.

At that time, his father was an accomplished businessman while his mother was a homemaker. Fortunately, the elderly Mr. Gong had already made a name for himself by then, and thus, his mother and sisters proceeded to live together with him. However, his sisters refused to take it lying down. After a few months of peace, they found out that the woman had gotten pregnant again.

The pair of twins utterly detested the woman because she had snatched their father away and ruined their parents' marriage. Yet, there was nothing they could do. After the first miscarriage, Mr. Gong's father paid extra care and attention to his mistress and instructed a large number of bodyguards to chaperon her wherever she went, leaving the pair of twins with no chance to act.

Mr. Gong's mother happened to chance upon a monk when she headed to the temple on the mountains. The monk told her that her husband had been pestered by an evil spirit and that he would die very soon if they did not get rid of the spirit. The elderly Mr. Gong's mother was frightened beyond limits. However, she was still rather apprehensive and decided to consult a reverend in the temple, only to discover that it was really the case.

Mr. Gong and his mother prayed earnestly to the deities in the temple and asked for an amulet in a bid to get rid of the spirit. They finally found a chance to meet the mistress. Just as they were about to take action in front of his father, the woman fainted and slipped into a coma.
