"After his wife passed away, Kang Ru never remarried. No matter how Old Madam Kang tried, he didn't compromise. Later on, as he got older, Kang Jichuan, the only son in the family, inherited the title. Thus, Old Madam Kang stopped forcing him."
A complicated look appeared in Gu Zheng's eyes. "In that case, Madam Kang is…"
"Xia Yunqiu." Song Shijing lowered his eyes.
Gu Zheng sneered. "As expected."
"Also…" Song Shijing paused. "Kang Jichuan is a vegetarian, but it's not strange as everyone has their own beliefs. But I heard that he even invites exorcists to his house to perform rituals. He'd look for a quiet place to pray every month as well."
Gu Zheng's lips curled into a cold smile, and a trace of playfulness appeared in his eyes.
"Kang Jichuan told the public that he prays for his deceased mother and sickly sister. However, I've asked around. He didn't look for exorcists to pray for blessings but… to exorcise the souls of the dead."
