Chapter 1239: Burdensome gifts
Was he not afraid that she would snatch it away without giving him what he wanted?
"I desire the same thing as Old Madam Ji," said Shen Hanjing with a polite expression. His eyes were determined as he looked at Song Yan with his hands resting on his knees, his fingers clenched tightly. "Please let me see Ziyi one last time."
Shen Hanjing had nearly emptied his bank balance by buying this jade slab but he didn\'t regret it. If it meant to see Ji Ziyi and apologize to her one last time, that was enough. Compared to seeing Ji Ziyi, this seven hundred million was nothing in his eyes.
When Song Yan saw the sincerity in the eyes of Shen Hanjing and the Ji family, she had to admit that she was slightly moved. These people truly wanted to see Ji Ziyi, they could have used the money for something else but instead, they came to look for her asking for a last chance to see their daughter/ sister or lover.
Even the gifts that they brought were sincere and Song Yan was indeed tempted by these gifts. They were really good things and they might help her in many ways but she couldn\'t just greedily snatch those things.
If she did that then what was the difference between her and the black art practitioners who used ghosts for their own benefit?
She turned her gaze slightly to look at the amalgamated ghost and watched Yi Yu shake her head. Because Ji Ziyi\'s head was attached to the side, she couldn\'t move it enough to refuse and had to rely on Yi Yu to refuse Song Yan on her account.
Song Yan wasn\'t surprised by the refusal of Ji Ziyi. She knew that the poor girl must be ashamed of her appearance, what was more, she died when teens were most worried about their appearances. Thus, Ji Ziyi despite being a ghost was still a young adult who cared about her appearance and did not want others to look at her when she was in a situation like this.
In fact, even Song Yan was not sure whether the Old Madam Ji, Old Master Ji and Shen Hanjing would be able to withstand the grotesque appearance of Ji Ziyi.
Seeing that Ji Ziyi was adamant about not appearing in front of her family and fiance, Song Yan didn\'t make things difficult for her. She turned to look at the Ji family and Shen Hanjing before saying, "Do you really want to see Miss Ji? I am afraid that it will not be as good as you think," she looked at the people in front of her with a sharp gaze and then continued to speak, "Miss Ji was killed most ruthlessly, her body was half shaved leaving nothing but broken bones and a mess of flesh behind. When a person dies, the appearance of his or her soul is dependent on the form of their body at the time of their death."
When the Ji parents and Shen Hanjing heard Song Yan\'s words, they were stunned. But then their faces turned pale and Song Yan delivered the last blow to them, "The current Miss Ji is no longer the beautiful woman in your heart. Now her appearance is grotesque and frightening." She turned to look at Ji Zhuang Guang and then added swiftly with a knowing look, "Master Ji knows about her appearance you can ask him."
Everyone turned to look at Ji Zhuang Guang who nodded stiffly. It was indeed true, though he didn\'t see Ji Ziyi\'s appearance perfectly as the warehouse was way too terrifying.
"That is not all because Xue Ping killed the three girls in the same warehouse, their souls have merged making the entire entity look horrendous, it is like watching a small mountain of flesh and blood, with bones sticking out here and there, do you think that you can see it?"
"We can," said Old Madam Ji with a determined look on her face. "She is a piece of flesh that fell from my body even if she is a mess of rotting flesh and bones. I can still take my daughter in my arms. I just want to hug her one last time before she leaves me." As she spoke she lowered her head and bowed in front of Song Yan. "Please Master Song, I beg you. This old lady only needs one last hug from her daughter and nothing else."
"I can also look at her," Shen Hanjing said sternly. He stared at Song Yan right in the eyes and then resolutely said, "I promised Ziyi that I will be with her in sickness and health. It doesn\'t matter what her appearance might be now, my love for her is the same old as it was years ago. Even if she is no longer the Ziyi, I know in my eyes she is still the same. Her beauty is imprinted in my heart... I do not care what she looks like anymore."
There was no hesitation in his eyes as he spat those words. One could see what kind of deep love this man had for Ji Ziyi.
As he spoke, he got up and knelt in front of Song Yan. Before Song Yan could stop him, the latter kowtowed in front of Song Yan and then begged, "Master Song, just once... let us meet Ziyi once more."
However, behind her, she could hear Ji Ziyi\'s gurgling. She then heard Yi Yu say, "Master Song, Sister Ziyi doesn\'t want to meet them. She is asking you to send them away." There was more gurgling as the surge of resentment and yin energy took another deep turn and Song Yan\'s eyes widened. She was about to calm Ji Ziyi when Old Madam Ji\'s sharp eyes caught the change in Song Yan\'s expression.
"Master Song, my daughter is here, right? I can feel her!"
