"Another one."
As Zhao Yan took the red envelope, the man with the square face opened his briefcase and took out another one.
Zhao Yan held it in her hand, and she could tell by lightly weighing it that this red envelope was at least four or five jin, making the two red envelopes about ten jin in total.
"Uncle, you're so vulgar!"
Lin Xihang said speechlessly, and tried to take the red envelope from Zhao Yan's hand.
Zhao Yan dodged to the side and quickly avoided him, "Being vulgar like this is quite good."
Then she put both red envelopes into her bag.
"Everyone, you should all leave now. The patient needs to rest, and this matter is not completely resolved yet," Zhao Yan said.
So many people had crowded into the ward, and their incessant chatter was making her head buzz.
Zhao Yan knew very well that this matter was not over. Although the Yin worms had been forced out of Mu Chuan, who had placed them there was still unclear.
"Listen to Miss Zhao, let's leave quickly and not disturb Miss Zhao's work." Mother Lin raised her hand and quickly ushered Mu Chuan's family members out of the ward first.
After these people left, the ward finally became quiet.
Lin Xihang asked worriedly, "Miss Zhao, is this matter not resolved yet?"
"The Yin worms have been forced out, but their origin is still unclear."
Looking at Mu Chuan lying on the hospital bed, he had woken up, but he was breathing heavily.
Mu Chuan had been tormented to the point of emaciation.
"This is Miss Zhao. It's all thanks to Miss Zhao's intervention that you were pulled back from the brink of death." Lin Xihang said to Mu Chuan.
Mu Chuan looked at Zhao Yan with gratitude.
Zhao Yan saw his lips move and quickly waved her hand, "Don't thank me too much for now. While you still have the strength, tell me the whole story."
Mu Chuan nodded, and Lin Xihang helped him sit up, using pillows to support his back so he could speak more comfortably.
"A few days ago, I organized a trip with my classmates."
"We passed by a village, which was very remote and seemed to have about forty or fifty households."
"It was getting late, so we stayed in that village. The next morning when we were leaving, we saw a woman sneakily following us."
"As we were about to leave the mountain, the woman caught up and asked us to take her home, saying she had been trafficked to that village."
"We were all young, spirited, and righteous people. How could we stand by and do nothing when we saw something like this? We took turns carrying the woman down the mountain."
Mu Chuan paused here, and Zhao Yan did not urge him.
Given his current condition, speaking these words made him breathless.
Mu Chuan's eyes held a look of fear and unease.
"Later, when she got tired of being carried, the woman walked away on her own. What we didn't expect was that when we got to the foot of the mountain, she disappeared."
"She was clearly following us the whole time, so how could she suddenly disappear!"
"It was as if this woman had never appeared."
"We thought the woman had left the mountain earlier. We asked the villagers at the foot of the mountain, and they said they hadn't seen her."
"After I returned home, I started to become like this."
"Cough cough!"
As he spoke, Mu Chuan coughed violently.
Lin Xihang raised his hand and gently patted Mu Chuan's back, then said to Zhao Yan:
"Miss Zhao, could that woman be a ghost?"
"And it seems like a very wicked ghost."
Zhao Yan pondered for a moment and said, "According to what you said, you carried the woman down the mountain, and she suddenly disappeared. When you got home, your body became like this."
Mu Chuan nodded and said, "Yes, that's exactly what happened."
"On second thought, it's highly probable that the woman was a ghost. She absorbed our yang energy, which is why my body became like this."
"Thank you, Miss Zhao, for saving my life. Let's just let this matter go. I think that female ghost is also a pitiable ghost."
Lin Xihang sighed and said, "You are too kind. You had good intentions, but this ghost deliberately harmed you. I say she should be taught a lesson."
Zhao Yan rubbed her chin. As she looked closely at Mu Chuan, she noticed his eyes were a little evasive.
She stood up and said, "Alright, since Mr. Mu says so, then I have nothing more to say."
"Keep these two talismans with you, and they will prevent your yang energy from being insufficient. Mr. Mu, get some good rest."
Mu Chuan quickly thanked Zhao Yan, "Thank you, Miss Zhao."
"I'm not feeling well, so I can't get up to see you out. Cough cough."
"It's alright, get some rest. I'll be going now."
As Zhao Yan got up, Lin Xihang immediately followed, "I'll see you out, Miss Zhao."
After walking out of the ward, Zhao Yan closed the door and said to Lin Xihang, "Boss Lin, do you know your cousin well?"
Lin Xihang was surprised for a moment and nodded, "We meet a few times every year."
"My mother mentioned that he's a bit arrogant and overbearing, but he's been more restrained lately."
Saying this, Lin Xihang asked doubtfully, "What's wrong, Miss Zhao?"
Zhao Yan waved her hand and smiled, "It's nothing, I was just asking."
As she spoke, she took out the two large red envelopes from her bag and handed them to Lin Xihang.
Lin Xihang asked in confusion, "Miss Zhao, what are you doing?"
Zhao Yan said, "After I figure things out, I'll accept this money. Otherwise, I don't feel right accepting it."
"Well, let's leave it at that for now. I'm leaving. Please take good care of Mu Chuan."
Although Zhao Yan told him not to see her out, Lin Xihang still escorted her to the hospital entrance.
Wu Jiaxin followed behind Zhao Yan, looking a bit bewildered.
Having worked with Zhao Yan for so long, she thought she understood Zhao Yan's personality.
Since the money had already been accepted, there was no reason for Zhao Yan to return it. It was highly unusual for Zhao Yan to return the two large red envelopes this time.
"Sister Zhao, why didn't you take the red envelopes? Even if you didn't take the red envelopes, you should have at least charged for the two talismans," Wu Jiaxin asked.
Zhao Yan did not answer the question but instead asked, "Xinxin, when you first saw Mu Chuan, how did you feel?"
Wu Jiaxin said, "I felt he was very weak and lacked strength."
"Anything else?"
Wu Jiaxin shook her head, "I didn't feel anything else."
Zhao Yan had read faces many times and could sense when someone was lying.
Zhao Yan sensed that Mu Chuan was lying.
"I'll ask Officer Xiao Qin. I have some things I'm curious about," Zhao Yan said.
She quickly contacted Officer Xiao Qin and asked him about the matter.
She asked if anyone had reported a case in the past few days. If that girl had come out, she would definitely have reported it.
"Miss Zhao, there was no report of trafficking, but there was a villager who found a female corpse at the foot of the mountain."
