When the girl was three, she wasn’t sent to kindergarten. Whenever they were unhappy, they beat her. She sometimes bled from her nose and mouth, and they left her untreated. One day, they locked her in the house while they went out. Returning, they found her in bed, having soiled herself. Recently, they had beaten her, and she hadn’t moved. Seeing her soiled, they became angry and beat her again. Eventually, she stopped reacting. Realizing she was dead, they panicked and buried her secretly in a cave, far from the village.
Returning home, they pretended she was missing, saying she ran away and never returned. The villagers helped search, but she was never found.
Years passed, and Ma Yihao’s wife couldn’t conceive. Seeking help, they visited many feng shui masters. None could explain the issue, but one mentioned a karmic debt with children. Ma Yihao dismissed it, believing no one could know his past.
But Gu Qin, opening her third eye, saw everything.
"Daughter, daughter..." The man's face paled, his teeth chattering. His hands clenched, nails digging into his flesh, unnoticed. He was shocked and terrified. How did this young girl know about his daughter? And that his daughter had...
Impossible, it had to be a guess. No one knew about it. Even the feng shui master he consulted said he had a karmic debt with children, but he didn’t know the specifics. He thought no master could possibly know such things, especially not about his daughter who had died.
Gu Qin wasn’t just reading faces or predicting fortunes. She opened her third eye and saw the whole story clearly.
This man was Ma Yihao. Ten years ago, he had a daughter. When she was three, he was twenty-one, having married his ex-wife at eighteen. They lived in a small, remote town far from Beijing.
His daughter was born, and they constantly fought. His ex-wife divorced him and left, taking no responsibility. A year later, he found a girlfriend, but having a child was a burden. He often lashed out at the child when in a bad mood.
At first, he just slapped her. Later, seeing her cry, he hit harder, punching and kicking her. He avoided hitting her face, fearing discovery. Neighbors, hearing her cries, sympathized and advised him gently. But he grew more violent, even muffling her mouth.
Later, his girlfriend moved in. Initially, she advised him, but soon she joined in beating the child. They feared neighbors would hear, so they muffled her and hit her.

Returning home,
The matter has been brought to Bai's attention. The Bai family once fell apart due to a momentary lapse of judgment. They were uncertain whether it was Gu Qin who had done this, but recently they investigated and found out about her actions in Dai Mountain. Now,

The matter has come to the attention of the Bai family. The Bai clan had once fallen apart due to a momentary lapse of judgment. Initially, they were unsure if it was Gu Qin who had done this, but in recent days, after investigating and discovering her actions in Dai Mountain, they now know for sure.
Due to this incident, Gu Qin's shop has gained some fame. After all, Ma Yihao was someone with some influence in Beijing, and suddenly something like this happened. Many people couldn't help but investigate and, upon finding out that it was related to Gu Qin, hurriedly looked into her background. Now, many people in Beijing probably know about Gu Qin and her feng shui shop, as well as her actions in Dai Mountain.
Truly capable feng shui practitioners are few. The businessmen and high society in Beijing occasionally encounter problems they can't solve and love to seek out feng shui masters. Even if they now know that Gu Qin is truly capable and can see through Ma Yihao's deeply hidden secrets, how could she not be highly skilled?
But with such great skills, they dare not seek her out. Why? Because each of them has done something slightly wrong and is afraid that this master might expose them.
This is their overthinking. In this world, who hasn't had a fleeting thought or made a mistake? As long as it's not a heinous crime, Gu Qin simply doesn't care.
This matter is known even to Bai. The Bai family once disintegrated due to a momentary lapse of judgment. Previously, they were perhaps hesitant about whether it was Gu Qin who did this, but until recently, when they investigated and discovered her deeds in Dai Mountain, they now
know for sure.
The matter added to it made it almost certain that Bai Jia was the one who did it back then, with no mysterious master or teacher behind her.
Bai Father, knowing about this matter recently, wanted to restart his business and planned to take Bai Lao San to apologize to Gu Qin, as Bai Lao San had offended the girl during the New Year’s celebration. He feared that if they started their business again, she might cause them trouble once more.
Bai Father led Bai Ziyi to Gu Qin’s shop. There were no customers at the moment, so no appointment was needed.
When someone came, Gu Qin showed no surprise.
Bai Ziyi had been instructed many times by Bai Father at home to apologize sincerely when he came. This young lady was not someone they could provoke; she could easily take their lives without anyone knowing.
Although Bai Ziyi didn’t take it seriously in his heart, he had been severely impacted over the past few days. Previously, people would call him "Third Young Master" everywhere, but now no one paid him any attention when he went out. Once, he got beaten up on the street, and since then, he had become much more obedient.
Bai Father stepped forward and said, “Master should know why we have come today. We have come here today just to apologize to you. I was wrong before, having bad intentions. Now I realize my mistake and hope you can give us another chance.”
Gu Qin replied, “Mr. Bai, please sit down.”
Bai Father and Bai Ziyi sat down. Gu Qin continued, “Since Mr. Bai has come, I will be honest with you. As long as your future actions do not involve me or my family, I will not interfere.” This statement clearly told Bai Father that the reason for dealing with the Bai family was because Bai Jia had been harmed.
Bai Father roughly understood this, sighed inwardly, and felt relieved that nothing serious had happened to Gu Jia.
After a few words, Bai Ziyi also thanked Gu Qin for the incident at the hotel during the New Year. Gu Qin stated she would not pursue the matter, and Bai Father felt completely reassured.
When they left, Bai Father truly had no intention of seeking revenge or reclaiming the Bai family. The disparity in strength was too great, and such power was insurmountable. No matter how high you climbed, there was no way to surpass it.
Gu Qin had anticipated that after Ma Yihao’s case, initially, no one would seek her help. Even Daisan was affected. She took the opportunity to relax, as she was never worried about having no business.
On Sundays when there was no business, Gu Qin would go to the club to check on things, wanting to make Cheng Yixiang's work easier. The club was doing very well.
All the gold cards had been sold out, and even some people offered higher prices to buy them, but Cheng Yixiang refused. Given the limited capacity of the club, the number of gold card holders was naturally restricted.
The work at the club wasn't heavy. After guests arrived, they would drink some honey water or fruit wine, prepare for the herbal bath, and rest in the lounge half an hour later. Most guests stayed at the club to sleep for a while; those short on time would rest for half an hour, while those with leisure would stay for the afternoon.
The club operated based on time and herbal baths. Each consumption was certainly not cheap, even more expensive than top-tier beauty clubs outside, yet no one complained about the price. People saw the results: they genuinely looked better, their fatigue disappeared, their spirits improved, and their skin condition became better.
This kind of word-of-mouth spread rapidly, bringing in even more customers who couldn't book appointments.
Cheng Yixiang was the boss and didn't need to do much. She would check in daily and attend meetings. She was now pregnant, and Lu Qingrong had found her a secretary to handle all the club's affairs, leaving her worry-free.
A few days later, Wu Zhengshan informed Gu Qin that Ma Yihao's case would be heard in court at the end of October, and she would be required to testify.
Gu Qin acknowledged this. Soon, the court date arrived, and Qin Xiansheng accompanied her.
Gu Qin was no stranger to court proceedings; she had previously sued the hospital and Gu Dejiang, though she lost that time.
All evidence was present, and the trial was quite fair. However, Ma Yihao's lawyer seemed competent, repeatedly rebutting points and even arguing that the video footage could not be used as evidence, claiming the person recording it intentionally manipulated Ma Yihao's words.
The police's lawyer asked about the remains found on the mountain, the blanket wrapped around them, and the fractures on the bones.
Defense counsel argued that perhaps others were responsible or that villagers accidentally killed the child and buried them in a cave.
The judge said, "Please provide evidence. Any speculative assumptions are invalid."
Then, both lawyers engaged in further debate. Eventually, the police's lawyer asked Ma Yihao if he remembered what time the child left to play.
Ma Yihao replied it was around ten in the morning.
Lawyer: "Did the child return at noon?"
Ma Yihao: "No."
Lawyer: "If the child did not return at noon, as the father, why were you not worried? Why did you only report the child missing at night?"
Ma Yihao: "My wife and I were out on business at noon, so I didn't notice."
Lawyer: "You only have one child. When the child went out in the morning and did not return home, why did you not look for the child when you knew something was wrong?"
Ma Yihao: "We thought the child was at a neighbor's house."
Lawyer: "Why did you think the child was at a neighbor's house? Is it common for you to leave the child with neighbors? Does the child often visit neighbors?"
Ma Yihao hesitated, "Yes, the child often visits neighbors, so we thought the child was at a neighbor's house."
