Frequent incidents happened in the family. First, it was the youngest son, then his wife, and on the same day, they both had a car accident. Retribution? Could there really be such a thing in this world? It was only when Chen Zonggui lost consciousness that he finally felt scared.

When he woke up, he was already lying in Daishan Hospital. His subordinates from the hospital were all standing around him with solemn faces. Chen Zonggui was still somewhat dazed. "Wha... what happened?" He suddenly remembered the car accident, and his face turned pale. "What happened to me?"

Why did his lower body feel like it had no sensation? He pinched his thigh hard with his hand, but felt nothing. Still no sensation. What exactly was going on? Chen Zonggui's face gradually turned pale. "W... what's happening to me?"

One of them, the vice president of Daishan Hospital, said, "Old Chen, don't move around. You were in a car accident. You didn’t have any internal injuries, but... your spine was hurt, and your lower body has temporarily lost sensation." The words were delivered somewhat delicately, as spinal injuries were almost as serious as brain injuries. It was irreversible. Western medicine couldn’t help, and they had even invited an elderly traditional Chinese medicine doctor who confirmed that recovery was impossible. All the doctors found it strange, as when the hospital received the dean, his head was heavily injured, bleeding profusely, but his brain had little damage. Typically, when people are thrown from a car, the head takes the brunt of the damage, causing cranial injuries, but Dean Chen had only injured his spine, which led to his paralysis.

"What... what?" Chen Zonggui's head buzzed. As a doctor himself, he understood that the lack of sensation meant paralysis of his lower body, and it was irreversible. He was paralyzed. How could this happen to him? Before he could regain his senses, the vice president continued, "Don’t worry, dean. Our hospital will invite experts from the United States for your treatment. Also, your wife has already had surgery and is no longer in danger. Your son has no serious issues and will be discharged soon if there are no complications in his brain."

The doctors present were all bewildered. How could such a series of misfortunes strike the dean's family so suddenly?

Three days later, after a detailed consultation, the experts from the United States regretfully told Chen Zonggui that his lower body would remain paralyzed with no chance of recovery.

The accident would inevitably make the news because Chen Zonggui was the dean of Daishan Hospital, with a well-known reputation. The media reported his spinal injury and paralysis, and they also covered the series of misfortunes affecting his family recently.

Gu Qin’s family didn’t subscribe to newspapers, and she wasn’t fond of browsing the internet, so she had no knowledge of this incident. It wasn’t until the next day when Gu Jia saw the news online. He had been wanting to apologize to Gu Qin for some time but couldn’t bring himself to do it. When he saw the report about Dean Chen, he froze. Could this really be retribution?

So Gu Jia decided to use this event to apologize to Gu Qin. That evening, after returning from school, he saw Gu Qin sitting at her desk reviewing her work. He walked over and showed her a report about Dean Chen on his phone. "Look at this."

Gu Qin glanced at the content on the phone, quickly finished reading, and then lowered her head to continue working. Gu Jia hesitated. "Don’t you have anything to say?"

"Say what?" Gu Qin looked up. "I just said they would get their retribution, and now it’s here."

Gu Jia opened his mouth, not knowing how to respond. He didn’t really believe in retribution and thought it was just coincidence. However, today, he wasn’t here just to talk about this. He sat down in front of her and said, "Gu Qin, I’m sorry."

When they were younger, Gu Jia used to call her "little sister," but now, they both addressed each other by their full names.

"I’m not angry." Gu Qin didn’t even look up, her pen scribbling on the paper. It was almost time for the monthly exams, and she had to push herself harder. She had already been studying during the summer and, with the memories of the original Gu Qin, the subjects weren’t too difficult for her. Moreover, she genuinely wasn’t angry; after a good sleep, all the resentment faded away.

"Do you want to use a new phone?" Gu Jia tried to please her. "I just got a new phone; it’s still almost brand new, and I haven’t sold it yet. I’ll give it to you if you want."

"No need." Gu Qin didn’t think it was necessary. A phone was just for making and receiving calls, something she rarely used. Besides, she was at least worth several million, wasn’t she? Did she really need a phone?

Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.

"Oh, come on." Gu Jia laughed. "I’ll go get it for you." He thought she might still be angry.

Gu Qin was speechless. Gu Jia quickly brought the phone to her. The two siblings played around for a while, but Gu Qin couldn’t get the hang of using the phone and was about to just put the SIM card back in her old phone. Gu Jia stopped her, "No, don’t do that! I’ll cut the card for you." Eventually, he helped her set everything up, downloading several apps, such as games, QQ, WeChat, and others. Unfortunately, Gu Qin didn’t know how to use any of them.

Later that evening, Gu Qin went out again. She planned to remove the White Tiger Raising Head Evil from the Chen family. Dean Chen had received his due punishment, but the evil still remained, and if it wasn’t removed, his family would meet with misfortune. Living like this was even more painful than dying. Moreover, the misfortune had already affected his family, and even though they were bad, it wasn’t her original self’s responsibility. A small punishment was enough, and she didn’t want to make things worse for his family.

Of course, Gu Qin wouldn’t let Chen Zonggui off lightly. After removing the White Tiger Raising Head Evil, she buried a talisman with Chen Zonggui’s birthdate near his family’s villa. This spot was specifically chosen by Gu Qin, and while moving the earth there could cause minor issues, she made sure that the talisman would only affect Chen Zonggui and not harm anyone else. It would only bring bad luck to him.

A few days after she buried the talisman, Chen Zonggui’s son’s concussion improved, and there were no further complications in his brain. He was almost ready to be discharged, but he had a deep scar on his forehead that would leave a permanent mark.

Chen Zonggui’s wife’s injuries were more severe. After surgery, she would need to stay in the hospital for half a month, and she would experience chronic pain in her chest and abdomen as a result of the trauma.

Jiang Ni almost immediately learned of the incidents at the Chen family, starting with the youngest son, then his wife, and finally Dean Chen. It was clear that Gu Qin had interfered with the Chen family’s feng shui. Jiang Ni was shocked, but more than that, she felt admiration for Gu Qin, a bit of excitement and a sense of luck to be involved in such events.

A couple of days later, Cheng Yinxiang also heard about it and couldn’t help but clap her hands in approval. After dinner, Gu Jia told them he was going to a classmate’s house to review, and then he left. Both Jiang Ni and Cheng Yinxiang didn’t think much of it.

A while later, Gu Qin had finished her study and was about to sleep when the phone rang. The name on the screen clearly said "Hospital Video Guy."

Gu Qin thought for a moment, then answered the call. "Hello?"

On the other end, it was Feng Tao’s voice. "Hey, it’s me. You remember me, right? The guy you bought the hospital video from a couple of months ago?"

Gu Qin lay back on her bed, widening her eyes. "I remember. What’s up?"

Feng Tao asked, "How’s the case going? Did you win? I saw the news about Dean Chen’s car accident."

"Didn’t win," Gu Qin said without elaborating.

Feng Tao chuckled. "Why so naive? You should’ve used public pressure. If it were me, I would’ve just uploaded the video online to stir things up. Don’t you get it? Want me to help?"

"No need." She had already solved it herself, so why would she want them to end up in jail?

"I’ll help you!" Feng Tao insisted.

"Really, no need!" Gu Qin was starting to feel that he was too familiar, "I promised to help you once. Have you thought of what you want me to do?"

Feng Tao paused for a moment, then laughed. "What could I want? My dad’s surgery was successful. Anyway, I’ll upload the video for you. No need to thank me!"

Gu Qin didn’t pay much attention to what Feng Tao said. Whether the video was uploaded online or not didn’t matter to her.

Feng Tao had always cared about Gu Qin’s situation because she was the one who had bought the video from him. He wanted to follow up, and when he saw that Dean Chen was hospitalized, he couldn’t help but call to ask. Hearing the result, he felt a bit indignant. After hanging up, he uploaded the video from before, but he made sure to

blur Gu Qin’s face.

He was quite familiar with online trends, so he knew how to craft a catchy headline. He emphasized the topics of "live organ transplant" and "retribution," and soon, the post had thousands of clicks and many replies.

After the Chen family’s troubles, other families began to experience small problems. However, none of them were as serious as the Chen family’s. At first, it was just a series of minor annoyances, like physical discomfort. Xu Junze was no exception, feeling cold and unwell at home. He couldn’t shake a cold for several days. Strangely, only he was affected, and when he asked his sister, she seemed fine. She had had a cold a few days ago, but now she was perfectly fine. He didn’t dare let her stay with him, so he sent her to stay at school.

Gu Qin didn’t know about Feng Tao’s help because she was too busy preparing for something to deal with the Su family. According to the information, the Su family had always been in business, and about half a year ago, their eldest son entered politics and was doing well. He had already reached the second-highest position in the neighboring city. Reaching the top spot was difficult, and while the city’s top position was still held by someone who had recently moved from the capital, the Su family’s eldest son was determined to rise to the top. However, reaching the second position in just six months was still an impressive achievement.

Gu Qin didn’t plan to target the entire Su family. The idea to move against them had come from Su Lingyu and her father, so she would only target them. Su Lingyu had a heart condition and wouldn’t live long. The remaining target was her father, Su Guangzhi.

The Su family lived in a villa not far from the Chen family, in the same neighborhood. Gu Qin also planned to set up the White Tiger Raising Head Evil, but she realized that the Su family, especially Su Lingyu and her father, were the ones responsible for the death of her original self. She had planned to strike them, but after discovering some things, she decided to temporarily hold off on her actions against the Su family.
