Chapter 88: 88

Ling Hua’an stayed in the hospital for nearly a month. He had good food, drink, and services. His pale complexion slowly turned rossy, and his skinny figure started to gain his weight back.

Jiang Chengyan has been especially idle recently. He can get off work on time every day, and even during the lunch break, he will come over to have a meal with him. In contrast, Yan Yu had not come over for several days, but every day Zhang Mian would come to the hospital to check on him. Ling Hua’an asked what was wrong, and Zhang Mian hesitated and refused to say, which made Ling Hua’an suspicious.

That day, Ling Hua’an was finally allowed to be discharged from the hospital. Jiang Chengyan especially took a morning off, came to pack his things, and took him home.

Ling Hua’an felt a little uneasy in her heart, frowned, and said, “Captain Jiang, help me find out what happened to Yan Yu, he’s been very abnormal lately. I’m a little worried. Forget it, take me to Yan Yu’s to check him out.”

Jiang Chengyan paused and said, “Hua’an, your injury is not completely healed. Otherwise, I’ll take you home first, and then I will go to Yan Yu’s company  to see how he’s doing, okay?”

“Captain Jiang, I woke up today and felt panicked. I always thought something was going to happen. The past two days, Yan Yu was too weird. I won’t feel at ease if I don’t see him myself.”

Jiang Chengyan knew he couldn’t stop him, so he sighed helplessly and said, “Okay, I’ll take you there.”

After driving to Yan Yu’s company,  Jiang Chengyan helped Ling Hua’an and walked in after parking the car.

When the lady at the front desk saw the two coming in, she showed a professional smile and said, “Hello, two gentlemen. How can I help you?”

Ling Hua’an said bluntly, “I would like to meet President Yan.”

The lady at the front desk smiled politely and asked, “Do you have an appointment, sir?”

“No, as long as you tell him my name is Ling Hua’an, he will see me.”

The receptionist lady saw the two men’s extraordinary demeanor, and Ling Hua’an’s tone of voice was very certain. She smiled and said, “The two gentlemen, wait a moment. I’ll make a phone call and ask.”

The lady at the front desk dialed Zhang Mian’s phone and conveyed Ling Hua’an’s search for Yan Yu. After hanging it up, she said, “Sorry, two gentlemen, Mr. Yan is not in the company. So I’m afraid he won’t be able to meet you two.”

Ling Hua’an took out his mobile phone and dialed Yan Yu, but he heard the prompt that the mobile phone was turned off. Ling Hua’an frowned more and more tightly and said, “Captain Jiang, let’s go to Jiamei villa.”

Jiang Chengyan also seemed to notice something was wrong and said, “Okay.”

The two drove to Jiamei Villa again. After registering with the guard, the car drove into the villa area. When they came to Yan Yu’s house, the two got off the car one after another and walked to the gate. Ling Hua’an said, “Captain Jiang, the gate password is 30170809.”

Jiang Chengyan entered the password, the door slowly opened, and the two walked in.

When Sister Zhang heard the prompt to open the door, she came out to take a look. Seeing that it was Ling Hua’an, she hurriedly said hello, “Mr. Ling, you are here.”

Ling Hua’an smiled and said, “Sister Zhang, is Yan Yu there?”

Sister Zhang asked somewhat strangely, “Xiao Yu is hospitalized, doesn’t Mr. Ling know?”

“Hospitalized? What happened to Yangyu?” Ling Hua’an’s heart couldn’t help but lift up.

“Car accident.” Sister Zhang sighed and said, “he broke two ribs and injured his leg. Now, he couldn’t move. I just returned from the hospital and planned to make some big bone soup and send it to him.”

Listening to Sister Zhang’s tone, Ling Hua’an could tell that his life was not in danger, although Yan Yu was seriously injured. He couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief and asked, “When did it happen? How did the car accident happen?”

“He has been in the hospital for four days. Xiao Yu said that he was too tired and his mind was a bit dazed. He hit the guardrail while driving home.”

“Too tired? Does he often come home late?”

“Isn’t it? Every time he comes back home very late at night and back to the company before dawn. He lost a lot of weight. I don’t know anything about the company. I tried to persuade him, but Xiao Yu just didn’t listen. Alas, the car happened.”

“Which hospital is he in? What’s the ward number?”

“Ward 13 on the 9th floor of Building 7 of the municipal hospital.”

“Okay, Sister Zhang, you’re busy. We’ll go first.”

“Mr. Ling, are you going to the hospital to see Xiao Yu?”

“En, is there something wrong with Sister Zhang?”

“Mr. Ling doesn’t know. In the past few days in the hospital, he has been working with a computer every day. He only sleeps for a few hours a day. It’s useless for anyone to persuade him. I want to ask Mr. Ling to persuade him since he has always listened to you the most. ”

Although she couldn’t see Sister Zhang’s expression clearly, Ling Hua’an could hear the deep worry in her tone. She really cared about Yan Yu. Ling Hua’an smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Sister Zhang, I will persuade him.”

The two did not delay and drove to the municipal hospital.

Jiang Chengyan looked at Ling Hua’an, who was silent, and said, “Hua’an, are you angry?”

Ling Hua’an sighed and said, “Captain Jiang, do you think I’m too unconcerned about Yan Yu? He has been hospitalized for four days and lives in the same hospital as me. I didn’t even notice it.”

“Hua’an, don’t blame yourself. Yan Yu doesn’t want you to know and also because he’s afraid you’ll worry. After all, you’re also in the hospital.”

“He always says he owes me, but in fact, I was the one who owed him. It’s just that I can’t give what he wants, so I can only make up for it in other ways.”

Jiang Chengyan breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously when he heard the words and then returned to his senses. He couldn’t help but smile bitterly. He didn’t expect himself to be so selfish at times.

Each of them fell into deep thought, and the car suddenly became quiet. Ling Hua’an noticed his strangeness and asked aloud, “Captain Jiang, what’s wrong with you?”

“It’s okay; I’m just wondering what happened to Yan Yu’s company to make him work this hard?” Jiang Chengyan subconsciously concealed that he didn’t want to feel wrong about Ling Hua’an.

“The last time he went abroad, he returned as soon as he arrived there. Probably because of this, there was an economic dispute. After all, it was because of me.” Ling Hua’an couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

“As long as money can solve the problem, it’s not a problem. If it’s a big deal, I’ll go back and ask my dad.”

Ling Hua’an said with a smile, “Captain Jiang,  are you treating me as a decoration? As long as I am here, it will not be your turn to ask for help.”

When Jiang Chengyan heard the words, the sourness in his heart dissipated, and he couldn’t help raising the corners of his mouth and said, “then  I really hugged a big tight1.”

The two soon came to Yan Yu’s ward. Jiang Chengyan knocked before opening the door and helped Ling Hua’an walk in.

Yan Yu looked at the two people who came in, couldn’t help but smile bitterly, and said, “Hua’an, you are here.”

There was not the slightest surprise in Yangyu’s tone, indicating that Zhang Mian had already gotten through to him. With Jiang Chengyan’s help, he sat beside the bed and asked directly, “What’s going on? Tell me.”

Seeing Ling Hua’an’s expressionless face, Yanyu felt a little drum in his heart and asked cautiously, “Hua’an, are you mad at me?”

Ling Hua’an was silent and looked in the direction of where Yan Yu was.

Ling Hua’an’s clear eyes look at him. Even if he knows he can’t see, it will make the person being stared at have a sense of oppression. Yan Yu understood that Ling Hua’an was offended this time and said honestly, “four days ago, I went home at night and drove on the winding mountain road in the villa area. Suddenly, a ghost rushed straight at the front windshield. I was startled, subconsciously jerked the steering wheel, and hit the mountain.”

“Ghost? Have you seen what it looks like?” 

Yan Yu shook his head and said, “No, I just saw that it was a woman with long hair and a bright red dress.”

“With a pendant on your body, she can’t get close to you, so she can only harm you in this way.” Ling Hua’an frowned slightly and said, “Yan Yu, have you made enemies with anyone recently?”

Yan Yu thought for a while and said, “I’ve been busy with the company recently. Except for company, I’m always at home. I can’t even go to your place. There’s no chance of having a grudge against anyone. Also, it’s a woman.”

Ling Hua’an pondered for a moment and said, “since it was not you, it must be about me. Since she can’t touch me, she harms people around me.”

Jiang Chengyan asked in confusion, “Hua ‘an, what do you mean by that? Why is she coming for you?”

“Yan Yu has been helping me investigate the case. He helps many ghosts, which leads to relatively offending many people as well. The female ghost who hasn’t been taken by the underworld messenger means she has just died, but she is wearing a red dress, which seems inappropriate this season.”

“Girls love beauty. When they attend formal occasions, they dress up beautifully. Like those female celebrities, don’t they all wear very little when walking the red carpet?”

“That’s not right.” Lung Hua’an frowned and continued, “there is this story spreading in Xuanmen2 that on the night of the full moon, a woman wearing a bright red dress commits suicide. Her resentment will be greater than ordinary ghosts. Because of her deep obsession, she will not lose her memory after death. Since it was a new death, her goals are clear, and she can show herself, so only this speculation is more reasonable.”

Jiang Chengyan replied, “the case you recently investigated was requested by Gao Ying. Liang Yijun’s dead was committed by Sun Ting, and there was also Gao Mingqian’s suicide. Even if they had family, they couldn’t find out. I can’t think who it could be?”

“We have recently investigated a total of three cases, the first is the murder of Jiang Changping, the second is the murder of Shen Xin, and the third is the murder of Gao Ying. As long as we check whether the female family members of the parties concerned have passed away, we can identify who this person is, except for the natural death, of course.”

“Okay, leave this matter to me. When I return to the bureau in the afternoon, I will arrange for someone to investigate it.”

When Ling Hua’an came in, he noticed a little kid in Yan Yu’s ward. He was about seven or eight years old and looked at Ling Hua’an with his two big eyes. Because there was no resentment in him, Ling Hua’an didn’t care, thinking he was a child who died of illness in the hospital. Seeing that Ling Hua’an could see himself, the child was curious, so he ran to Ling Hua’an and said, “Can you see me? Why can you see me?”

Ling Hua’an didn’t answer. He completely ignored the little kid’s presence and looked at Yan Yu, “the matter of the car accident is done. Let’s talk about the company. Is there any problem?”

“It’s okay……”

Ling Hua’an interrupted Yan Yu’s words and said, “tell me the truth.”

Yan Yu glanced at Jiang Chengyan for help, but Jiang Chengyan shrugged his shoulders, indicating he couldn’t help.

Seeing this, the kid complained in Ling Hua’an’s ear and said, “The two of them are making a sign. They must be thinking of reasons to lie to you.”

Ling Hua’an said in a bad mood, “don’t think that because I’m blind, I can’t see anything. You two don’t fool me.”

The little ghost excitedly said, “you can see and hear me!”

Jiang Chengyan looked around subconsciously and said, “Hua’an, how did you know? Could it be that Shen Xin is back?”

Yan Yu looked at Jiang Chengyan helplessly and said, “Captain, are you exposing yourself?”

Jiang Chengyan touched his nose embarrassingly and said, “subconscious reaction.”

A smile flashed in Ling Hua’an’s eyes, and he said, “can you tell the truth now?”
