"I can’t really specify," Guo Jiacheng said. "It’s just some stuff like ’How did I end up here? What exactly happened to me?’ It’s quite strange anyway."
Hearing this, Xia Chuyi raised an eyebrow. What on earth was wrong with Xia Lan?
"Do you want to go see her?" Guo Jiacheng asked her.
Because he thought, perhaps there was some connection between her and her?
Xia Chuyi thought for a moment, then shook her head. "Let’s forget it, we’re about to head back to Ling County soon."
What she meant was, she didn’t want to bother with Xia Lan.
Guo Jiacheng nodded. "Alright, this really isn’t your concern anyway."
It was just a shame, another missed opportunity for Huo Shiqian to owe someone a favor.
"Let’s go, sister, I’ll take you to the station," Guo Jiacheng called to Xia Chuyi as they left.
"Thank you!" Although Guo Jiacheng sometimes seemed unreliable, she still needed to thank him.
After boarding the train, Xia Chuyi saw Guo Jiacheng, this piece of charcoal, still grinning with his white teeth, waving at her from the platform.
Smiling like a wolf sending off a little white rabbit.
Soon, the train was out of sight.
Guo Jiacheng lowered his hand, turned his head to his driver Xiao Zhen, and said, "Did you jot down all the stuff we bought for sister?"
"Remember, convert everything to cash and report it to Huo Shiqian."
"But, make sure not to take his money, just let him owe it!"
"Hehe, let him bring his troops to join me for more drills, and I’ll brush off these expenses."
"Otherwise, I’ll go around spreading that Huo Shiqian is a ’scab’!"
Xiao Zhen: ...heartache, who is the real scab?
But what can he do? Guo Jiacheng is his commander. He just hoped, Huo Commander would only come after his own boss and spare them, his poor subordinates.
Xia Lan buried herself in the covers, her body continuously shivering.
Where is this place? How did she end up here?
Wasn’t she already dead?
She remembered, because she had sent He Qing to harass Xia Chuyi, she endured fierce retaliation from them; they sent him to a madman who tortured him inhumanely.
Just that wasn’t enough; they actually summoned a high priest to perform a soul liberation for Xia Chuyi and seemingly cursed her to go to hell.
Telling her to go to hell and repay Xia Chuyi.
Madness, all madness!
She had only sent someone to bother Xia Chuyi! It wasn’t she who made He Qing kill anyone. Xia Chuyi had died because of an accident; how was it her fault?
Besides, she just wanted Xia Chuyi to be ruined, not dead!
Yes, she was wrong. But it wasn’t a crime worthy of death!
Xia Chuyi, in the end, died accidentally because of He Qing, which had nothing to do with her! Why should they seek revenge on her?
As Xia Lan was wildly speculating thus, the doctor and nurse came in.
"Hey, patient, what exactly is wrong with you?" the doctor asked her. "How are you feeling now?"
Xia Lan was still buried under the covers, unsure of her current situation, afraid to lift her head or speak.
The doctor and nurse exchanged a glance.
The doctor then said to her, "Comrade Xia Lan, do you still remember that you are Xia Lan?"
"You were injured in the head at the Police Station, and your memory might be a bit confused for a while."
"Mr. Xia, don’t worry, you will recover soon."
The doctor consoled her, and went on to explain how she got injured and the details of her condition afterward.
