Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

1688 Comatose?

In the long corridor, Xia Mingcheng tugged on Yuan Yuan’s hand with a gentle smile on his face. Yuan Yuan wished he would hold her hand forever. This was the first time he had taken the initiative to get close to her. Yuan Yuan was both happy and delighted. Unfortunately, he let go not long after. Yuan Yuan was quite disappointed. Seeing his gloomy and uncertain expression, she thought of how she had seen Mother Xia crying just now. Mingcheng was probably sad because something had happened to his brother.

Yuan Yuan didn’t feel much about what happened to Xia Mingcheng’s brother. Even if she was the one behind it, she originally didn’t want to do it. Unfortunately, Mingcheng’s brother never liked her and even tried to ruin her relationship with him. So, she couldn’t be blamed for being ruthless, and could only have him die.

In fact, after what happened to Mingcheng’s brother, she also regretted it a little. Of course, it had nothing to do with guilt; she was just afraid that Mingcheng’s brother wouldn’t die and would reveal the truth to the Xia family. It wouldn’t be good if he ruined her relationship with Mingcheng. If that was the case… a trace of cold ruthlessness flashed in Yuan Yuan’s eyes.

However, Mingcheng’s younger brother had fallen down the stairs from the third floor. Even if he didn’t die, he would be unconscious and seriously injured for a while. Yuan Yuan had time to make any preparations. She was pleased that something had happened to Xia Mingzhen, but she asked carefully and worriedly, “Mingcheng, are… are you okay? I heard… Uncle said that something happened to Mingzhen and he fell from the third floor. Is he okay? Is there anything I can do for Mingzhen? Don’t stand on ceremony with me, just tell me!”

Looking at the woman in front of him, Xia Mingcheng felt pretty terrible. If Mingzhen hadn’t said so, he really would have never expected this woman to be the one to attack his brother. It could only be said that this woman was too good at acting, too fake, and too good at pretending. Xia Mingcheng had never hated a woman so much. He was also glad that she hadn’t seen Mingzhen properly earlier. Otherwise, things would have been difficult. Given how vicious she was, she would most likely find another opportunity to attack his brother.

Still, this woman was unusually evil; if she wanted to make a move, he really might not be able to stop her. Xia Mingcheng’s eyes flashed and he immediately made a decision. He feigned a very sad expression and his eyes turned red. After a moment of silence, he said lightly, “I’m fine!”

The more Yuan Yuan looked at Xia Mingcheng, the more she felt that something had really happened to his brother. Otherwise, why would he be so sad?

Yuan Yuan was secretly delighted and sighed inwardly with relief. She continued to ask worriedly, “Mingcheng, what’s wrong with Mingzhen? Is he awake? I heard Aunt crying so sadly just now. Can you tell me what Mingzhen’s condition is like? I have a friend who knows an especially capable doctor. I’ll help contact him and introduce him to you.”

If he hadn’t known this woman’s true colors from the beginning, Xia Mingcheng might really have believed her. The more this woman acted, the more dangerous it was. Xia Mingcheng naturally didn’t want to tell this woman about Mingzhen and wanted to send her away immediately. However, if he didn’t say anything, this woman would definitely continue to investigate his brother.

As soon as this woman questioned Mingzhen’s attending doctor, she would immediately know that Mingzhen was fine. Xia Mingcheng might as well reveal some of the information she wanted to know. In any case, he had already confirmed that this woman hadn’t seen Mingzhen earlier. His mother had cried at the right time, which made this woman suspect that something had happened to Mingzhen.

Xia Mingcheng deliberated for a moment, then immediately picked up on what the other party said. He feigned gratitude and excitement and asked, “Do you really have a friend who knows an especially capable doctor? In what way? Is he from the neurology department?”

When Yuan Yuan heard this, her eyes lit up. If Xia Mingzhen really was in a coma, that would be the best news for her.

As far as she knew, it wasn’t easy for a patient to wake up from a coma; some comatose people didn’t wake up for the rest of their lives. In the end, they could only die from brain failure. If that happened, that would simply work in her favor.

Mingcheng, this meddlesome younger brother, was the only one in the Xia family who wasn’t satisfied with her. With him out of the picture, as long as she seized the opportunity to perform well in the next few days, not to mention whether or not she could take advantage of the opportunity to make Mingcheng accept her, Father and Mother Xia would definitely be more and more pleased about their marriage, and would urge Mingcheng to do more.

When the time came, she would continue to scam Father and Mother Xia, and she wouldn’t need to worry about not marrying into the Xia family.

The more Yuan Yuan thought about it, the more excited and happy she became. However, she still had some sense. She probed for the information she wanted, and didn’t reveal her delight. Also, she did in fact have friends who knew especially capable doctors.

However, handing Xia Mingzhen over to another doctor for treatment wouldn’t be a good thing for her. Yuan Yuan’s eyes shifted slightly and she immediately replied, “Mingcheng, I’m not sure if my friend’s doctor is a brain specialist. Why don’t I check with him and then get back to you?”

Xia Mingcheng naturally nodded in agreement and sounded quite grateful. Yuan Yuan was very excited and felt more and more that this was her chance.

“Mingcheng, could it be that Mingzhen hurt his head from the fall? What did the doctor say? Mingzhen isn’t comatose, is he?” Yuan Yuan probed. If one listened carefully, they would be able to hear some inexplicable excitement and delight in her tone. Xia Mingcheng’s eyes flashed, but his expression was very heavy and sad. Afraid that the woman in front of him would be suspicious, he made his eyes turn red. After a while, he said in despair, “Mingzhen hasn’t woken up. The doctor said… that it’s very likely he’s in a coma, but there could be other possibilities. The doctor said that he would examine Mingzhen later.”
