Chapter 121 Unrequited Love Doesn't Count as Sister-in-Law
Song Baiyuan still remembers the scene from that day.
No one knows what happened in that house. At least when it was discovered, Yan Xun was the only survivor.
His parents, one was found dead in the yard, and the other cut off his own hand in the kitchen and threw it into a pot, then bled into a coma.
If it weren't for Yan Xun's cries and the thick smoke from the kitchen fire, the other people nearby wouldn't have known that such a terrible thing had happened at the Yan family's home.
Song Baiyuan had just graduated from university and was interning in another city when he heard about it, so he rushed over.
Yan Xun sat blankly in the hospital corridor, staring at him. Song Baiyuan felt both heartache and concern for his sister, who had lost too much blood and was unconscious in the kitchen. Due to the fire and thick smoke, her condition was now very bad.
Perhaps it was a final burst of lucidity, but his sister was momentarily conscious. However, with so many medical devices attached to her, Song Baiyuan couldn't clearly see her expression. Yet, as she struggled to open her eyes, he understood her implied message—
Take good care of Yan Xun.
Then, Song Baiyuan's sister passed away.
To anyone, this was a murder—but no matter how the investigation went, no outsiders had ever visited Yan Xun's home.
They were as if they suddenly went mad, then suddenly regained their senses, and then suddenly died.
Yan Xun was probably too shocked and became dazed.
Until one day, Song Baiyuan met the master standing downstairs in his rented apartment. At that time, he had just graduated and could only ask the landlord's family to help take care of Yan Xun. He would pay them extra for childcare.
When Song Baiyuan saw the man with his face covered, he didn't pay any attention to him until the man spoke to him.
He knew the cause of his sister and brother-in-law's deaths.
Song Baiyuan couldn't help but look at the other person, after all, he had previously claimed that Yan Xun's parents had died in a car accident.
"If you go back to your sister's house, you will find a small golden statue underground."
“They betrayed Jia Ye, so…”
The man in black looked upstairs. "Jiaye has withdrawn His blessing."
Just as Song Baiyuan was about to berate the man for talking nonsense, he saw the man in black clearly describe the appearance of the golden man, and even know exactly where it was buried under the Yan family's land.
Song Baiyuan was skeptical, but in the end he took leave that very night and went to that house.
Following the instructions of the man in black, he finally dug out the little golden man that the man had mentioned, along with an iron box.
Inside was a handwritten letter from his sister, saying it was a curse from Jia Ye.
She was already dead when Song Baiyuan saw the letter.
What terrified Song Baiyuan even more was that the handwritten letter contained a long list, which included not only his sister's name, but also his parents, his parents' parents... and so on. Each of these names had a big cross next to it.
His sister wrote in the letter that their family were believers in Gaya.
However, as their territory disappeared and their descendants migrated, they gradually forgot about Gaya. Once they abandoned their faith, they no longer believed in Gaya.
His curse will then descend.
If you find any strange marks on your body, it means you are under the curse of the Gaya.
Upon seeing this, Song Baiyuan hurriedly lifted his clothes and discovered a strange totem on his side.
He returned home dejectedly with the letter and the little golden figure, only to find the man in black already waiting for him downstairs.
"Please let me come up and have a chat."
"That's what the man in black said."
“Talk about your nephew, talk about the curse on you.”
According to the man in black, Yan Xun was a child forced upon him by his sister and brother-in-law. His soul was unstable at birth, and he was only able to barely resemble a normal child thanks to Jia Ye's blessing.
But now that Jia Ye is furious, his sister and brother-in-law have been punished, and Yan Xun has naturally become this dazed and confused.
As for the curse on Song Baiyuan, there is no need to worry. As long as he does what Jia Ye says, Song Baiyuan will not only not be harmed by the curse, but his career will also flourish.
He was skeptical, but the man in black told him that what Jia Ye needed him to do was very simple: just put the little golden figure in the soil of the flower bed under the company building.
Once everything is complete, the believer will naturally receive a reward.
Afterwards, the chaplain will guide believers in their dreams.
Song Baiyuan had some doubts, but placing the little golden statue in the soil of the flower bed downstairs in the company was not a difficult task.
So the next day, when the security guards and others weren't paying attention, he did as instructed.
Nothing happened that day, but when Song Baiyuan arrived at the company the next day... his boss was exiled to the frontier because of a scandal, and his outstanding performance was discovered by the company's upper management, resulting in a three-level promotion in just six months.
He and Yan Xun also moved out of their original rented apartment, and Song Baiyuan could even hire a nanny to take care of Yan Xun.
It was all because he did as Jia Ye instructed.
Just as the man in black had said, Jia Ye indeed gave him many hints in his dream. After following them one by one, his career flourished. In more than ten years, he became a senior executive of this artist management and film investment company.
Then the company decided to develop the idol business, and the man in black approached Song Baiyuan again.
Upon seeing Yan Xun on the list provided, Song Baiyuan began to have some doubts.
His nephew still looked dazed and slow to react compared to others, as if he were just an empty shell.
Unexpectedly, the man in black said something to him meaningfully.
"He'll return to normal once he joins the group."
Song Baiyuan was skeptical, but Yan Xun's appearance was indeed outstanding. In the end, he decided that if all else failed, he would let him take the route of a beautiful but foolish girl who would be pampered by the other four members of the group.
As the man in black had predicted, Yan Xun quickly returned to normal.
Therefore, nowadays, whenever the group encounters any major problems, Song Baiyuan habitually seeks help from the man in black and Jia Ye.
“No,” the master said.
Upon hearing this, Song Baiyuan breathed a sigh of relief, but he was also certain that the revelation was not false.
He was just about to ask the master what was going on when he heard the master say—
"Having a crush on someone else doesn't count as having a sister-in-law."
"If there's no official status or recognition, it doesn't count as dating."
Song Baiyuan understood the master's meaning slightly, "You mean...?"
"Was there a member in the group who had a crush on someone?"
Song Baiyuan found it unbelievable. He could understand having a sister-in-law, but having unrequited love for someone else?
Not to brag, but although these people were all chosen on the advice of the master, each of them is arrogant and picky. How could they possibly fall in love with someone unrequitedly?
It seems like it's not just unrequited love, but the object of that unrequited love is also unknown.
"Don't you believe me?"
Song Baiyuan, of course, dared not disbelieve the master, and he hurriedly said no, no.
After seeing the master off, Song Baiyuan sat in his office, lost in thought, when his assistant knocked and entered.
Song Baiyuan glanced at his assistant.
"Is it done?"
