"Xiao Wan, stay a bit longer before going back," Fang Shoushan said, trying to keep Wan Yunting.
"No, I have to work tomorrow."
Wan Yunting smiled and waved his hand. Seeing this, Fang Shoushan could only give up. He turned to Fang Yanxi and said, "Yanxi, why don't you give Xiao Wan a ride back."
Fang Yanxi was taken aback. Fang Guowen chuckled, "Go on, Uncle Lin can't drive as he's been drinking."
Fang Yanxi nodded. Wan Yunting naturally didn't refuse. As they left, he glanced at Fang Xingteng, who was sitting in a chair in the living room, drinking tea with his head down. He then left with Fang Yanxi.
Fang Yanxi, driving a red Mercedes, saw Wan Yunting get into the passenger seat and then slowly drove away. "Are you staying at the hospital now?"
"No, I'm going to Wealthy Mansion in Tianhe District. I'm staying with Jin Xiuwen," Wan Yunting replied with a smile. Fang Yanxi didn't say anything and focused on driving.
Thirty minutes later, Fang Yanxi slowly stopped the car downstairs at Wealthy Mansion. Wan Yunting smiled and said, "Thanks."
Fang Yanxi nodded without a word. Wan Yunting thought for a moment and decided to remind her, "Be careful of your cousin, Fang Kangning. He's with Chen Tao now!"
Fang Yanxi's eyebrows furrowed slightly, a look of confusion on her face. Wan Yunting smiled and said, "He's a drug addict!"
"Are you sure?" Fang Yanxi asked in surprise.
Wan Yunting nodded and said, "I've seen many addicts. Once they get involved with drugs, it's very difficult to quit. At the same time, the stimulation from drugs makes the brain neurons enter an excited state, and people in this state can do anything!"
Fang Yanxi nodded. She hadn't expected Fang Kangning to be a drug user.
Having said what he needed to say, Wan Yunting didn't say anything more, knowing that Fang Yanxi would know what to do. He said goodbye and got out of the car. After watching her drive away, he went upstairs.
Before going to Fang Shoushan's place, Wan Yunting had learned about Fang Yanxi and her second uncle, Fang Xingteng, from Jin Xiuwen.
At the same time, at Ling Wei Club that night, he had seen Fang Kangning and Shen Junjie, and Wan Yunting immediately recognized them as drug addicts.
No wonder they could associate with Chen Tao!
Meanwhile, in a VIP ward at the First People's Hospital, Wang Chulin, who was asleep, woke up when she heard her husband stir beside her. She saw Wan Dongming convulsing and rushed over, "Husband, husband, what's wrong?"
Wan Dongming looked pained, "I don't know. I feel so uncomfortable, like ants are crawling on me..."
"Ah."
Wang Chulin cried out in panic, "Doctor, Doctor, please come in..."
Soon, doctors and nurses entered and began examining Wan Dongming. They seemed a bit puzzled. One nurse said, "Has he taken drugs?"
Wan Dongming's condition was exactly the same as Shen Junjie's when he experienced withdrawal symptoms earlier.
"No, my husband doesn't do drugs. Did you make a mistake?"
Wang Chulin exclaimed, her heart pounding. The doctor said, "Let's do a blood test."
The results quickly confirmed that Wan Dongming was suffering from drug withdrawal. Wang Chulin was so scared that she collapsed onto the bed. Wan Dongming cried out in pain, "Nonsense, I don't do drugs! How could I have withdrawal symptoms? You must have made a mistake."
The doctor held up the data, "The blood test shows that you have indeed taken drugs, and it's heroin!"
"Impossible," Wang Chulin shrieked. "My husband would never do drugs. You must have made a mistake..."
The doctors were also puzzled. They had examined Wan Dongming when he was first admitted, and he had no history of drug use. Moreover, his withdrawal symptoms didn't seem severe, suggesting it was an initial relapse.
"I feel so bad..."
Wan Dongming trembled, feeling like tens of thousands of ants were crawling on him. He wanted to scratch himself, but his hands were broken. Now, he was in even greater pain, wailing. Seeing this, Wang Chulin became anxious. "Doctor, what do we do now? My husband is in so much pain..."
The doctor shook his head. "He has to endure it."
"Ah, I can't stand it..."
Wan Dongming cried out in agony, making Wang Chulin weep with worry. She then pleaded with the doctor, "Doctor, please think of a way."
The two doctors exchanged glances. Seeing Wan Dongming suddenly twitch, they quickly said, "Give him an injection of methadone and a sedative..."
As expected, after the methadone injection, Wan Dongming felt much better, as if he had just finished being intimate with his wife. He let out a sigh and slowly fell asleep.
Seeing this, Wang Chulin felt relieved but was very confused as to why her husband would use drugs. She quickly took out her phone to call Wan Yunting.
Wan Yunting, who had just returned to Jin Xiuwen's place and showered, picked up his phone. Seeing it was his second brother's number, he answered immediately. His second sister-in-law's voice came through, "Third brother, please come to the hospital quickly. Your second brother has had an accident."
Wan Yunting's expression changed. "Okay, I'm coming now."
Jin Xiuwen drove him to the First People's Hospital. They went straight to Wan Dongming's ward. Wang Chulin met him. "Third brother, the doctor checked and found that your second brother has a drug addiction!"
"What, drug addiction?"
Wan Yunting was shocked and disbelieving. He quickly walked to the bedside, looked at his sleeping second brother, and felt his pulse. He indeed noticed something abnormal about his body. Wang Chulin handed him the blood test results, confirming that his second brother had indeed experienced drug withdrawal. Wan Yunting's face turned grim.
Because the test results indicated heroin!
Hmm! Wasn't Shen Junjie's death caused by an overdose of heroin?
"Could it be that the fake doctor who injected Shen Junjie with heroin that night also injected my second brother!"
Upon considering this possibility, Wan Yunting was shaken. A cold glint appeared in his eyes, making the air freeze. Jin Xiuwen and Wang Chulin trembled, staring at the grim and enraged Wan Yunting. "Third brother, did you... did you think of something?"
He immediately contained his aura and shook his head at his sister-in-law. "It's nothing, sister-in-law, don't worry. Second brother is just in the early stages of addiction; it's not that serious. It's easy to quit."
"That's good then."
Wang Chulin breathed a sigh of relief, but she was already thinking about how to hide Wan Dongming's drug addiction from their parents.
"Second brother's condition is basically stable. Let's take him home to recover."
Wan Yunting believed the hospital was not safe. If someone were to secretly inject his second brother with more drugs, it would make it very difficult for him to quit once he became fully addicted.
"Okay, then I'll handle the discharge procedures tomorrow."
Wang Chulin nodded. Wan Yunting then asked Jin Xiuwen to leave, as he intended to stay at the hospital for the night.
At the same time, he needed to analyze whether the fake doctor who injected his second brother with heroin that night was sent by Chen Tao.
At this moment, outside the city, at an intersection near Chen Tao's private villa, a police car was parked. Inside were Niu Qiuling and Wu Bochao, with two other young officers from the anti-drug unit behind them.
"It seems they won't be leaving tonight."
They had been tracking Chen Tao and Fang Kangning all along and had followed them to the vicinity of this private villa. They knew this was their spot for drug use and entertainment. However, Wu Bochao did not act rashly, as they wanted to catch a bigger fish!
"Chen Tao is the most suspicious person for the murder of Shen Junjie!" Niu Qiuling said, narrowing her eyes.
"The Shen Junjie incident will make them more cautious. Therefore, for the next few days, until Kun Xiong appears, we absolutely cannot let Chen Tao discover us," Wu Bochao warned sternly.
"Understood."
Niu Qiuling and the others nodded and continued to monitor the private villa on the mountain...
