Chapter 0006: Spirit Cleansing Talisman

However, Su Jianzhong immediately thought there was something wrong with his eyes. The yellow talisman thrown out by his daughter, after she uttered the word 'Lin', unexpectedly transformed into several beams of white light, which all entered his wife's body. Meanwhile, some gray ash began to fall gently around them.

Su Jingwen sneered inwardly; she certainly understood why her father wanted her to get closer to Wang Peng. Her father aimed to take a further step, which required the assistance of Wang Peng's father. Although her father, Su Jianzhong, was already the mayor of a prefecture-level city, the Su family had not allocated a spot for him among those they were nurturing. Without the Su family's support, if Su Jianzhong did not seek connections on his own, he might remain in the position of mayor for the rest of his life.

On the bed lies a beautiful woman who appears to be in her thirties, somewhat resembling Su Jingwen, but her eyes are tightly closed, and her brows seem to be slightly furrowed

He is well aware that he truly has no right to say anything about his daughter; he indeed feels guilty towards his wife and daughter. His wife's company is now managed by his daughter, and he has not been of any assistance.

Upon hearing the name Su Jingwen, one immediately knows that Wang Peng has betrayed her. She feels contempt for this fool, and even more so for the flashy individuals outside who are utterly shameless. However, she is also quite dissatisfied with her father for remaining silent and not wanting to respond.

Su Jingwen only felt a slight tingling on her scalp. She knew that many charlatans used chemical phenomena to deceive people, but as a top student in the sciences, she found herself unable to explain this phenomenon through any chemical reactions. Could it be that this was truly the effect of talismans?

Looking at his somewhat self-deceiving daughter, Su Jianzhong shook his head but did not continue speaking. He wanted to wait until his daughter finished using this talisman before having a proper conversation with her

"Dad, why are you back?" Su Jingwen returned to her family's private sanatorium and was surprised to see her father. Ever since her mother became a vegetative state, her father had devoted almost all his energy to his political career. It was Su Jingwen who managed her mother's company, but due to her mother's situation, the affairs of the company were in complete disarray.

Upon seeing Su Jingwen enter, the caregiver sitting at the head of the bed quickly stood up, greeted Su Jingwen, and then stepped outside

Su Jianzhong's face turned red and white as he was spoken to. He raised his hand, ready to slap his daughter, but upon seeing her stubborn and haggard expression, his hand slowly lowered again

The thought that this might truly be an effective talisman made Su Jingwen's hands tremble. If it is indeed as the master selling the talismans claimed, her mother should be on the verge of awakening.

Hmph, if I don't come, you still wouldn't know how to stir things up. You've brought back so many random things home, and this time you actually believe in something like talismans. Is the next step going to be inviting shamans back as well?" Su Jianzhong's expression was quite dark, clearly indicating his dissatisfaction with his daughter

"How can I say it? I can't put it into words. Right now, you need to immediately throw away all the clutter in the house..." Su Jianzhong said in a firm tone.

If it were not for the sudden coolness that enveloped the entire room, and the discomfort caused by the bright light piercing his eyes, he would have thought it was merely an illusion. What exactly is going on with the books?

Upon seeing her turn and enter her mother's nursing room, Su Jianzhong opened his mouth as if to say something, but ultimately held back. He understood that his feelings were indeed detrimental to his daughter. After some contemplation, he followed her inside, but he merely stood at the doorway, lacking the courage to face his wife, who had been in a coma for three years and still had not awakened.

Su Jingwen was also stunned; she thought the talisman had been thrown away. She said a word, and it would continue to land on her mother's quilt, after which she prepared to continue calling for her mother

Taking out the "Calming Charm" that Ye Mo sold to her for 20,000 yuan, Su Jingwen felt somewhat dazed. Although she knew that this charm was likely a scam, she could not suppress the excitement within her, as if her mother would truly awaken after the charm was used.

However, the situation greatly exceeded her expectations. The talismans she had thrown out transformed into several streams of cool white light, which then entered her mother's body. The talismans she had cast away disappeared, and what she saw instead were small gray ashes drifting down.

Alright, I know I can no longer control you. I only hope this is the last time you are misled by wwwhetushucomcom. Please do not do this again in the future. You are an educated person; how can you not understand this? Do not let a street charlatan create some distance between you and Wang Peng. Remember, honest advice is often hard to accept. " Su Jianzhong said with some helplessness.

In fact, Su Jianzhong indeed thinks this way. The influence of the Wang family is not smaller than that of the Su family, and the Su family is not one of those super prominent families in the capital. The individuals they nurture can only be a few with potential. He can reach the position of mayor, but that is indeed the limit. Moreover, he is nearly fifty years old; if he does not seek external assistance, he may gradually fade from the Su family's attention. Once he leverages the power of the Wang family to advance further, it is possible that the old man will begin to reassess his potential.

However, despite this, my father never inquired and rarely visited the Su family's private sanatorium to see my mother. Yet, Su Jingwen did not understand why her father had come to the sanatorium today

Looking at her mother, who remains in a coma, Su Jingwen's eyes reddened. It has been several years; although she has never given up, the pain she endures cannot be shared with others. Only in the quiet of the night does she collapse at her mother's bedside and weep bitterly.

"Father, after Mother fell ill, what did you do? You only came to see her once while she was in a coma. Where have you been all these years? Ask yourself, do you truly deserve Mother? I know what I have done, and I do not need your interference. Mother has never blamed you for keeping another woman outside, but what about you? Have you ever considered Mother even a little?" Su Jingwen fell silent for a moment before suddenly erupting. "Mother has never blamed you for keeping another woman outside, but what about you? Have you ever considered Mother even a little?" Su Jingwen fell silent for a moment before suddenly erupting.

Although she was aware of her father's intentions, Su Jingwen did not say anything. Although Wang Peng was handsome, in Su Jingwen's eyes, he was merely a decorative pillow. To say that he was like a donkey's droppings—shiny on the outside but filled with coarse chaff on the inside—was not an exaggeration at all.

Su Jingwen suddenly stood up, took two steps back, raised her hand, and threw the 'Calming Talisman' onto the woman lying on the bed, simultaneously uttering the word 'Lin'.

At this thought, Su Jingwen could no longer contain her inner excitement and rushed to her mother's bedside.

Looking at his daughter, who seemed almost like a charlatan, Su Jianzhong felt no amusement whatsoever; instead, he was filled with unease and guilt. For the sake of her mother, even this highly educated daughter had begun to believe in such matters.
