Chapter 987 Ghost Face
"Brother, it"s fine!" Wei Man said.
Wei Ting was about to speak, when they suddenly heard knocking on the window this time. The two brothers immediately felt their scalps tingle, and they froze. They didn"t dare look at the window at all.
Afraid that they would see something they shouldn"t, their faces turned deathly pale. Wei Man regretted not getting Yan Yan to stay. Wei Man couldn"t help but whisper in a tearful voice, "Brother, should I call Yan Yan?"
Wei Ting directly rejected Wei Man"s suggestion. He gritted his teeth and mustered his courage. "I"ll go take a look first!"
Wei Man grabbed his brother"s wrist and refused to let go. In the end, Wei Ting said that Yan Yan had pasted talismans on both the window and the door. Even if something really was outside, it wouldn"t be able to enter. Only then did Wei Man let go of him. However, the fine cold sweat on his forehead grew, and a few drops slid down his cheeks to his neck.
Wei Ting walked to the window and saw that there was no movement outside or anything strange. He was about to look away, when he saw a face covered in red blotches and half-peeling skin pressed against the window. It smiled sinisterly at him and urged him to open the window.
The terrifying face was very clear through the window. Red blotches were all over the face, which shed even more skin. To Wei Ting, it was even more terrifying than an evil spirit.
Suddenly seeing that terrifying face, Wei Ting sucked in a cold breath. The shock was too great. His eyes rolled back and he fainted.
"Brother!"
In the blink of an eye, two days pa.s.sed. If word of Shen Rongyin and Fang Qingyang getting married had only been a rumor before, Fang Qingyang was now proudly declaring everywhere that the two of them would be registering for marriage. He even said that he would be holding a banquet in a day or two. It happened so quickly that Chi Shuyan was left speechless.
When she heard the news, Chi Shuyan called Counselor Zhang on her balcony and applied for another half a month of leave from school. She felt a little embarra.s.sed to do so, but when she thought about how the thing with Shen Rongyin hadn"t been resolved yet, she wouldn"t be at ease if she went back to school. She could only be thick-skinned and act pitiful as she applied to Counselor Zhang for another leave of absence.
Counselor Zhang was very grateful to Shuyan for saving his family"s lives before. Taking leave was a small thing, but taking leave so soon after just entering university wasn"t a small matter. Counselor Zhang was more concerned that she wouldn"t be able to keep up with her coursework when she returned to school. He could spare time to tutor this child in his subject field, but what if she couldn"t keep up in the other subjects?
In addition, the school had gotten stricter recently. Although Counselor Zhang approved her leave, he still told her to return to school as soon as possible.
Chi Shuyan said gratefully, "Thank you, Counselor Zhang. I"ll be back at school in half a month at most. I won"t take leave again after that. I"ll study hard and improve every day."
Counselor Zhang exhorted her a few more times before the two hung up.
Right after that, Chi Shuyan received a call from Father Wei. He sounded a bit anxious and asked if she could head to the military hospital at once
Chi Shuyan had a lot of time on her hands recently. After listening to Father Wei, she said she would go over right away.
As soon as she left, she ran into her man and her father. Seeing her serious expression, they asked her where she was going. Chi Shuyan told the truth and said that Uncle Wei was looking for her.
Chi Lingyan said, "I"m free now, so I"ll go with you. The reason your Uncle Wei is asking for you is probably because of the blood that"s gone missing from the hospital"s blood bank recently!"
