Chapter 20: Shattering Tenderness

  The next day, Huang Banshan opened the door and saw that the entire door was covered in black bloodstains, and the Blood Talisman had long since disappeared without a trace.

  I interrupted Wen Shu before she could finish the story, not letting her continue. The reason was that none of these stories had anything to do with what I was trying to accomplish right now. However, the previous story did give me a lot of inspiration. For the time being, let's believe what Lei Xiaoshu (who came with my older sister) said - the first Lei Xiaoshu I met (let's call him Lei Xiaoshu A) was his deceased twin brother, and the blood flowing from his feet was black. If it's like the story said, then Lei Xiaoshu A is just like that woman, a vengeful spirit! Moreover, he might also be relying on absorbing the vital energy of living people to sustain himself! This would explain what happened that day - I was probably lured to the villa as a sacrifice. The problem is, this is all just speculation, without any basis or evidence, and can't be trusted. Even more so, it's not possible to let our guard down because of this speculation and believe Lei Xiaoshu B's words. No matter what, my older sister is in his hands, and considering the fact that he's holding her hostage, I should definitely have an adversarial relationship with him.

  Wen Shu was very dissatisfied with me interrupting her story and insisted that I continue listening to her. I secretly found a cotton ball and plugged my ears, but she discovered it. She picked up the book and pounced on me, but I dodged to the side and she fell onto the bed. I took advantage of the situation and pounced on her, covering her entire body. After occupying the high ground, I immediately started acting, using my hands to scratch her armpits frantically, no matter how hard she laughed or resisted, I didn't let up. In a short while, both of us were exhausted from the commotion.

  At this moment, Wang Jue pushed the door and came in. The hospital room was not allowed to be locked according to regulations. He saw this scene, immediately lowered his head, turned around and closed the door. I and Wen Shu were both on the bed, her hair had been scattered during the fight, just like that with scattered hair, being pressed under my body, we didn't need any explanation!

  After Wang Jue left, Wen Shu got up with a red face, tidied up her disheveled hair and clothes, and put the scattered magazines in order on the bedside table. Then, without saying a word, she lowered her head and went out. I was also stunned by this sudden scene, my face flushed with embarrassment, not knowing what to say. I just silently watched her do these things, and silently saw her off as she left.

  Wen Shu left for a while, and Wang Jue came again. I guess he went out earlier to give us some time to clean up the "battlefield". As a man, I don't mind being seen in this situation. But what about Wen Shu? How will he look at her?

  Wang Jue took a look at my medical record and asked if I had any fever or chest tightness. I replied one by one. He thought there was nothing wrong and was about to leave.

  Just as he was about to leave, he saw the stack of magazines neatly placed on the headboard. He casually picked one up, flipped through two pages, and suddenly stared at me with a fixed gaze.

  I was stared at by him and broke out in a cold sweat. I don't know what happened.

  "Have you seen these ghost stories?"

  "What's wrong?" I asked him in a daze.

  "Arrange for a thorough examination right away. Change your clothes and come to my office." He said, picking up the stack of magazines and hastily leaving the ward.

  I followed the instructions and went to the nurse's station to get a set of clean hospital clothes from Wen Shu. She was red in the face, pretending to be busy with this and that, not paying attention to me.
