The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses

The woman came to.

She opened her eyes and stared at everyone around the coffin. She asked in a hoarse voice, "Who… are you guys?"

"It doesn't matter who we are. The point is, do you remember who you are?"

"I obviously know who I am. I'm Ms. Gong Feiyan."

"Ms. Gong? There are so many people who have the surname 'Gong.' I really don't know which family you belong to. I've already removed the chains from your ankles. Can you stand up on your own?"

"I can't stand up…" said the woman, who tried to get up but to no avail, for she had been immobile for too long.

"Here, let me help you."

As An Xiaoning was about to extend her arm, Wang Jinsheng said, "Ms. An, you…"

An Xiaoning shot him a glance to hint him to shut up. She bent forward to grab Gong Feiyan's shoulder and helped her up slowly.

However, An Xiaoning did not plan to let her leave the coffin.

"Ms. Gong, how did you end up in this coffin when you're still alive? Since you've already come to, it'll be your sister's turn soon," said An Xiaoning, keeping her eyes fixed on the other coffin.

Gong Feiyan shifted her gaze onto the coffin and said eagerly, "You guys, don't let her come to. She's been possessed by a supernatural being. If you awaken her, the consequences would be dire!"

"A supernatural being? What's that?" An Xiaoning asked.

"She's being possessed by an evil spirit. That's the reason I got implicated too. Could you carry me out of the coffin? I can't lift my legs," said Gong Feiyan, who appeared pale and ghastly.

Who would dare to carry her without An Xiaoning's permission?

"Ms. Gong, why don't you tell me detailed information about your family? We'll help you search for your family. I'm from the police force."

"You're a police officer? I don't want to search for my family. If they were to find out, they'll continue trapping me inside the coffin. Please don't, I'm begging you!" she refused, shaking her head profusely. She was on the verge of tears.

"Okay, okay, don't get so worked up, Ms. Gong. Your clothes seem to be from the ancient times. I don't think you were buried recently…"

She stared at the people in front of them and scanned her surroundings, only to discover that everything had changed.

"I have no idea how many years I've been asleep for either. Since you're a police officer, could you ensure that I don't make it onto the news? Don't search for my family either. I want to leave this place now."

"Leave this place? Ms. Gong, you have no money with you now and there's nowhere you can go to. You've been asleep for so long, and you can't even walk with ease. It'll take some time for you to regain your mobility. Where can you possibly go?"

"Anywhere is fine." She struggled to stand up and tried to raise her legs several times, to no avail. She caught sight of the amulets around the coffins and asked, "What… are those?"

An Xiaoning lied, "They… were already there when we discovered the coffins."

"Remove them, remove them!" she screeched in a piercing voice.

"We don't know what to do with these amulets, so we've already sent some people to bring a master here."

"A master? What master?" she asked with glistening eyes.

"Don't be afraid, we just want to consult the master and find out what these amulets are for. Didn't you say that your sister had been possessed by an evil spirit? We'll let the master take a look at her too."

Gong Feiyan began to get flustered and anxious. "Could you let me out of here first…"

"We'll let you out after the master is here, alright? Just be patient and wait for a while," An Xiaoning said patiently.

"No, I don't want to wait. I want to get out!"

An Xiaoning turned to look at Wang Jinsheng and asked, "When is the master coming?"

"He's almost here. He should be arriving in two minutes."

"I said I don't want to wait anymore!" Gong Feiyan hollered and pushed An Xiaoning away. An Xiaoning pretended to stumble backwards, after which Gong Feiyan collapsed back inside the coffin with a loud thud.

An Xiaoning casually waved her hand at Team Leader Zhang, who then hurriedly disseminated a message to the archeological team members who were on standby. Shortly after, they drove toward them and Team Leader Zhang yelled, "Ms. An, the master is here!"

As soon as he yelled, a cold breeze filled the air. An Xiaoning shifted her gaze onto the coffin, only to discover that the spirit had already left the body.

She instantly deduced that that was the spirit.

She picked up the remaining dog blood and splashed it against the coffin, after which a shrill sound rose into the air.

It gave everyone the goosebumps.

The overwhelming odor of blood attacked their senses, and they hurriedly covered their noses.

An Xiaoning immediately said, "Stop standing around. Hurry and help the Gong sisters out."

"Ms. An, is the ritual done?"

"What else were you expecting? Hurry and be gentle," An Xiaoning urged.

The elderly Mr. Gong had been watching the entire process quietly from afar, and he had also heard the eerie shriek. Seeing that the ritual had already ended, he walked toward them with his walking stick and said, "Ms. An, are my sisters alright now?"

"Yes, they're fine, you may bring them home with you. However, their bones have already become weak and fragile since they'd been lying inside the coffin for years. Please be more careful when handling them, Mr. Gong."

Mr. Gong said agitatedly, "Yes, yes. Ms. An, you're brilliant. If only I'd known you back then, they wouldn't have had to hibernate here for five decades. I must reward you handsomely."

An Xiaoning answered with a smile, "You don't have to reward me. It's still raining now. You ought to get some rest inside the car."

"I'm not that fragile. I'll be fine even if it's snowing, what more the rain. Ms. An, you've yet to marry again, have you?"

"Not yet."

"That's terrific. Shall I introduce you to my grandson?"

An Xiaoning remained silent.

"Are you agreeable?" he probed.

"Mr. Gong, I've been thrice-divorced and I have a son too. The Gong family is a prestigious and well-known elite family of H Nation. I'm sure you'll want your granddaughter-in-law to be a chaste and unmarried woman."

"That doesn't matter at all. The times have changed, I'm not bothered by those formalities at all. I think you're a really brilliant person," Mr. Gong said with glistening eyes.

An Xiaoning burst into laughter and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Gong, but there's already someone whom I love."

"Who is it?"

"Jin Qingyan."

"Oh no, that's the end of it for my grandson. His competitor is way too formidable. When I get back, I must tell him to buck up and find a wife who's as capable as you are!" the elderly Mr. Gong teased.

An Xiaoning chuckled and said, "Ah, Mr. Gong, you really flatter me."
