Chapter 1149: Ghost Subst.i.tute, Mother Wei Is Possessed
After confirming that Yang Lan’s injuries weren’t serious, Chi Shuyan was relieved.
As soon as school ended that evening, Zhen Yu received a call and then took the two of them to the restaurant for dinner. Zhen Yu liked the food at Imperial Restaurant very much, so she had gotten her boyfriend to book a private room at the restaurant.
Sure enough, Yang Lan put on her sungla.s.ses.
Chi Shuyan still had to go to the hospital because of the jade pendants. She hadn’t had time to make them, so she could only use the ones in her Cosmos Ring and give those to Xiao Ningjin, Jiang Duo and the others first.
She didn’t go with Yang Lan and Zhen Yu right away. There was still some time before the dishes were served. Taking advantage of this time, Chi Shuyan had them go to the restaurant first, saying that she would be there soon. She also had Zhen Yu tell her boyfriend h.e.l.lo on her behalf, and she would come as soon as possible.
Zhen Yu understood that Shuyan had a lot on her plate, and she nodded. “Okay, Shuyan. Go do your thing, then come over after that!”
Chi Shuyan estimated that she would be able to come over in half an hour, and Zhen Yu nodded in relief. On the side, Yang Lan was a little worried about her appearance. She was here on Zhen Yu’s behalf. If Zhen Yu’s boyfriend and his friends saw her like this, wouldn’t she be embarra.s.sing Zhen Yu?
Only after Chi Shuyan confirmed that the injuries couldn’t be seen after Yang Lan put sungla.s.ses on did she heave a sigh of relief.
After parting ways with the two, Chi Shuyan took a taxi to the hospital. On the way, she dialed Qi Zhenbai’s number. Whether she applied for leave or would be back later tonight, Chi Shuyan wanted to let the man know.
She dialed his number, but the call didn’t go through for a long time. Chi Shuyan called three more times. When she heard the beeping on the other end of the line, her heart turned cold.
Could it be that after breaking up with her last night, Qi Zhenbai now didn’t even plan to answer her calls, and wanted to completely cut ties with her?
Thinking this, Chi Shuyan’s heart couldn’t help but turn cold. She hung up, rolled down the window, and sighed as she looked at the tall buildings and neon lights outside.
Fortunately, her phone suddenly rang a few minutes later. Chi Shuyan glanced at the screen and saw that it was Qi Zhenbai calling her back.
Chi Shuyan wasn’t a sentimental person to begin with. When she saw that the man was calling her, her eyes lit up and she immediately picked up. The man’s deep and magnetic voice rang out. “What’s the matter?”
The man’s tone wasn’t deliberately cold, but it was much colder and more distant than before.
Chi Shuyan could vaguely hear someone reporting something to Qi Zhenbai, and she was afraid of disturbing him. “Are you very busy now?”
“Mm! What’s the matter?” The man’s tone was still both cold and indifferent.
Chi Shuyan still wasn’t used to this man’s cold and taciturn tone. She said, “I might have to be away for a day or two!”
“Mm!”
Mm? What did that mean?
Chi Shuyan was a bit disappointed. She still wanted to speak, but the man already said that he was busy!
Chi Shuyan could only hang up first.
It was already good that he answered the call than not at all. She thought about how in the past, the man would definitely ask about everything when she said she would be away. Now, he probably didn’t care or felt that since they had broken up, everything about her had nothing to do with him.
Chi Shuyan was very despondent. She didn’t understand how the two of them had ended up breaking up. In the end, however, she was the one in the wrong.
Once again, she understood that some words really couldn’t be said casually. They could hurt someone. Even if you didn’t mean it, the other party could take it to heart and be hurt by it.
On her way to her hospital, Chi Shuyan thought about her relations.h.i.+p with Qi Zhenbai. Naturally, she didn’t want to break up. She made up her mind that after this matter was resolved, she would have a good chat with him and make it up to him. She wanted to make it up to him now, but unfortunately, the time wasn’t right. She didn’t have time even if she wanted to.
Thinking this, Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but feel her head hurt.
Chi Shuyan was lost in thought the entire way. She only came back to her senses when the driver stopped the car. She immediately paid and got out.
Chi Shuyan focused and took the elevator to Wei Panyang’s ward. The elevator was a little far from Wei Panyang’s ward, and she had to walk down a short hallway.
Chi Shuyan saw Wei Panyang’s ward number in the distance. Not long after, the door opened. It was Mother Wei. Chi Shuyan was about to greet her, when she saw that the way Mother Wei closed the door was off. Her movements were a bit stiff and didn’t look human at all. Chi Shuyan’s face changed.
After Mother Wei closed the door, she lurched forward stiffly.
Chi Shuyan saw a white light and a black aura around Mother Wei. Obviously, the body had been possessed not long ago.
Chi Shuyan took out a talisman and lit it in front of her. Her black eyes flashed with a golden light.
Sure enough!
She looked again and saw a ghost attached to Mother Wei. Although it wasn’t a malicious ghost or an evil spirit, it was clear from the black aura and weak red light around it that it wasn’t anything good.
Chi Shuyan quietly stuck a Tracking Talisman on it. Once that thing emitted killing intent, she would immediately know.
She had the vague feeling that this thing had been instructed by that great ghost to target Jiang Duo, Xiao Ningjin and the others.
Since they were its targets, this thing would come back. After confirming that Mother Wei would be fine for the time being, Chi Shuyan pushed the door open and entered to see Jiang Duo and the others sitting together and chatting mindlessly.
They had also bought a lot of snacks and beer.
When Chi Shuyan pushed the door open and entered, Wei Panyang and the others were scared out of their wits by the noise. They thought that Mother Wei had returned, and they subconsciously hid the beer.
It was Jiang Duo who recognized Chi Shuyan first. He immediately beamed with joy and excitement. “Ningjin, Panyang, Ah Hao, Luoying, there’s no need to hide. It’s not Panyang’s mother, it’s Master Chi! It’s Master Chi!”
As soon as Jiang Duo said that, the others looked at Chi Shuyan excitedly. Chang Hao, Wei Panyang and Xiong Luoying were also excited. “Master Chi is really here. Master Chi is here to see us. That’s great! That’s great!”
Xiao Ningjin’s eyes also lit up.
Chi Shuyan saw that these brats still dared to drink after encountering that thing. She also knew that they were restless; it was boring for them to suddenly be cooped up in a ward. However, she thought of Mother Wei, who had just been possessed. If she had come a little later, who knew if these brats would still be alive after tonight.
“Are you having a good time drinking?”
