Mei Yangyang left at midnight while Jin Qingyan, An Xiaoning, and Jin Qingyue continued to stay up and watch the coffin throughout the rest of the night.
They decided to leave Jin Yiheng and only bring him to the burial ceremony the day after, since he was still too young.
The three of them stacked the paper ingots while kneeling down on the praying mat side by side.
In the darkness of the night, it began to pour heavily.
For the rest of the night, Fan Shixin and Fang Xiaotian did not catch any shuteye either and instead stayed up wide awake all the way 'til daybreak.
Fang Xiaotian was terrified and ill at ease.
It was the first time in his life that he ever witnessed such an absurd supernatural phenomenon, which frightened him out of his senses.
At this point, he knew clearly that Mrs. Jin's death had to do with the fact that he had given her birth characters away, as well as her hair samples and clothes.
