Ning Meng had never seen Shi Shanyan before.
The book only mentioned that he had died prematurely and though she did possess Grandma Shi’s memories, she knew that when Shi Shanjin was the oldest child, Grandma Shi became pregnant with Shi Shanyan when he was a year and two months old. After Shi Shanyan was born, he died prematurely.
In the end, he wasn’t even recorded into the family tree, so Shi Shanshen and Shi Shanxing who came after, moved up a place.
The system explained, “It’s reasonable to say that children who died prematurely cannot have funerals nor tombs made for them. Crematoriums and the like do not accept children who have died.”
Shi Shanyan’s ashes were in that box which meant that someone had burned him in private, and a tablet was even made for him before it was sent to her.
Ning Meng couldn’t figure out why the person who sent the urn to her didn’t show up. Instead, he had to rely on Li Chun and used express delivery the next day, unafraid that something might go wrong in his plans.
“Sometimes, a newborn child is very useful.” The system euphemistically said, “Shi Shanyan’s birth date and physique are only slightly worse than yours.”
After all, because he was a boy, his yin aspect was naturally inferior to a girl’s.

She turned around to close the door but realized that the blonde woman was also following her.
As she got closer, Ning Meng was once again amazed by her appearance. She had no visible wrinkles, as if she was a delicate and lustrous girl in between the ages of 18-20.
After thinking about it, she let her in.
The room was quite big, and Ning Meng walked straight in before becoming dumbfounded in place.
It was the first time she had seen this side of Shi Qi.
Shi Qi was lying in bed with his eyes closed. His face was twisted into an ugly expression. His usual delicate face was bloodless, looking like a porcelain doll. It was clear at first glance that he was injured or was suffering from something.
She didn’t know what happened that night, but it was evident that the cause was due to the evildoer behind the scenes.
Ning Meng was stunned for a while, and reached out her hand. As soon as she touched his skin, she felt a searing pain and retracted it with a hiss.
The woman said softly from behind, “You can’t touch him at the moment.”
Ning Meng turned around, “What should I do? Does he have to go through this? Or do I need to do something?”
The woman stared at her all of a sudden, an inexplicable light shining in her green eyes. Even her whole person seemed to have changed, “Would you be willing to do it?”
Do it? Do what?
Ning Meng had an odd feeling, but still asked, “Tell me what I have to do first.”
If she didn’t tell her, how would she know whether Ning Meng was willing to do it or not? Moreover, Ning Meng still didn’t know whether she harbored good or evil intentions at present. When Shi Qi was young, she had just left without taking care of him. Now that she appeared, Ning Meng didn’t know if she was going to provide any help.
Although she was not clear about her identity, it did not prevent her from condemning her behavior of neglecting and leaving the child as well as disappearing.
Thinking of this, she asked the system again, “What in the world is her identity?”
She was not a human, nor was she a vampire so what was the reason for her immortal-like unchanging appearance?
The system hesitated for a while before speaking, “Due to an opportunity, she was able to achieve immortality.”
The world was a world in a book so everything depended on the author’s original setting. Even though it had not been specifically mentioned, everything in her mind had already constituted this world. The system also had to go check before it was able to learn what she was.
Immortality was not a simple matter, especially to someone who lived a life of sins.
As if to judge whether she was useful to Shi Qi or not, the woman moved in the room for a long time, and finally found something on the table. After she opened it, she then swept her a glance again.
Ning Meng squinted her eyes and took a peek.
Why did it look like a marriage certificate…
She was still deep in her thoughts when the woman had already put down the thing in her hand and walked straight towards her. The urn she was holding onto was also placed on the table, “I need your cooperation later.”
Ning Meng hesitated for a moment before nodding.
According to the system, she should have good intentions and if she had intentions of harming Shi Qi, she wouldn’t have given birth to him or killed him as soon as he was born, there was simply no need to wait until today.
After thinking about it for a long time, Ning Meng suddenly felt lucky.
That evildoer wanted to use Shi Shanyan who was just born that year. After so many years of scheming, Shi Shanyan’s brother Shi Shanxing had already grown up and fell in love with the woman in front of her but when this matter became known to that evildoer, whose goal was to live forever, and Shi Qi’s mother happened to be such a person, the evildoer chose to take her away to obtain immortality, and so, she left Shi Shanxing and not long after giving birth to Shi Qi, she left.
The evildoer behind the scenes then had no choice but to come up with a new complicated plan, preparing to use Shi Shanyan whom he had just kidnapped not long after he was born.
The more Ning Meng thought about it, the more she felt that her conjectures were right.
The woman took a bowl and said, “Blood.”
Ning Meng gritted her teeth and cut her wrist, carefully squeezing out half a bowl of blood. She endured the pain and bandaged the wound, watching her draw on the ground with it.
After a while, the floor of the entire room was smeared with bright red patterns.
After everything was over, the woman stood not far from the bed and began to sing a cryptic song. It was at this time that Ning Meng saw the various patterns and texts that appeared on her arms when her clothes slid down. It looked very mysterious.
At the same time, a cluster of flames suddenly appeared in the center of the distance between her and the bed.
Very quickly, the flames rose higher.
Ning Meng stared at her unblinkingly, and in front of her, she saw several people appearing around the flames. The vague figures began to dance the same dance as the woman, but the rate of speed they danced at was not as fast as hers.
They were clearly inside the room, but the whistling wind rang in her ears, and there seemed to be shouts coming from afar, causing one’s heart to pound with excitement.
Ning Meng was still in a daze when the person across her suddenly pulled her and pricked her fingertips. Before she could react, a drop of her blood was squeezed onto Shi Qi’s lips, and trickled into his mouth.
The singing voices became louder until it finally calmed down.
She turned her gaze and saw that the flames and the people had vanished without a trace, as if they had never been there to begin with.
And apart from her blood, there was nothing else left in the room.
👀 what is happening *patiently waiting.jpg* Thank you for the chapter!
What is happening?! O.o
I’m confused… the mastermind kidnapped Shenyan when he was a baby, but did nothing to him until he coincidentally could not find Shi Qi’s mother, who somehow became immortal and she coincidentally met ShenXing who is Shenyan’s younger brother and married him and had Shi Qi…??
