Chapter 238: Fear And Guilt
“Gu Yan, stop saying that. It’s so scary,” Shen Jiayi said quickly.
The corners of Gu Yan’s lips lifted a bit. “It’s fine, it’s fine, Jiayi. We didn’t do anything we should be guilty about, so we don’t need to be scared.”
Meanwhile, Zhang Cuihua stiffened.
She thought about what she encountered recently. It matched what Gu Yan described.
Zhang Cuihua immediately rushed over and asked nervously, “Gu Yan, tell me, what does soul herding mean?!”
Gu Yan calmly looked up. “Why should I tell you? We’re not close.”
Zhang Cuihua was at a loss for words. She stomped her feet. “Gu Yan, just tell me. We are comrades, aren’t we? You need to cooperate.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes, am I not your comrade?” Zhang Cuihua pleaded, “Please, Gu Yan, just tell me. What is going on? How can I free myself? Otherwise, I won’t be able to fall asleep at night!”
“Why can’t you fall asleep?” Gu Yan asked curiously and added, “Oh right, I heard you were sent back from the hospital. What happened to you?”
“She was brought to a cemetery by someone.” Xu Miaomiao couldn’t resist answering.
“Gu Yan, this thing is quite eerie. If you know the answer, just tell Cuihua. She is very scared.”
Zhang Cuihua was about to scold Xu Miaomiao for exposing her. However, she realized the other girl asked what she wanted to know the most.
Gu Yan looked at Zhang Cuihua and suddenly questioned, “Did you go back and see Gu Moli?”
Zhang Cuihua’s expression changed in a blink.
Her eyes were s.h.i.+fting as she coughed. “No, no, I went home during New Year. I didn’t visit her house.”
“Haha,” Gu Yan gave Zhang Cuihua a deep smile and said nothing else.
Zhang Cuihua was greatly frightened. She didn’t dare to ask Gu Yan anything.
Later, Han Jiao came to visit her. She was still dazed.
Han Jiao let her rest.
Zhang Cuihua couldn’t really sleep well at night. She kept hearing something strange.
When she closed her eyes, Gu Yan’s words would echo in her mind.
The more she thought about it, the more scared she became.
These few days, she has been getting less sleep.
It was a vicious cycle.
Zhang Cuihua was at the point of collapsing from the constant torture, terror, and guilt.
In the meantime, Gu Yan brought over the medicine to the pharmacy the following morning.
Chen Yuan didn’t look any better than a month ago. However, his eyes lit up when he saw Gu Yan.
“Gu Yan, you’re here already?”
“It’s a bit windy. Let’s talk inside.” Gu Yan had to heal Chen Yuan quickly. She also needed to conserve some of the superpowers. After all, she needed to treat Xie Luan in the afternoon.
Gu Yan handed the medicine that Chen Yuan was supposed to drink. Following such, she checked his pulse.
In reality though, she was using the green light.
