Just as Pei Yan had predicted, the rumors that he and Ling were jinxes grew more and more intense.
Everyone connected to him was implicated.
People were spotted lurking near the Mei family's old house, looking like they were trying to start trouble.
Pei Yan was not an impatient man, but with his wife and daughter involved, he wanted to resolve the trouble as quickly as possible.
So, he decided to add fuel to the fire.
The first people who fell ill didn't get better after taking medicine; instead, deaths began to be reported one after another.
Even previously healthy people began to suffer from vomiting and diarrhea.
It really looked like a plague!
The common folk couldn't get near Pei Yan, so they gathered in droves at the entrances of the Government Office and the Mei family's old house, demanding that Pei Yan take his daughter and leave.
They also said that by keeping Pei Yan and his daughter, the Mei family was harboring jinxes.
This was a grave crime!
