65: Chapter 65 This Corpse Is Sowhat Strange
The eting room was silent, and even the sound of breathing seed lighter.
An Yiqing’s bold move had thoroughly shocked everyone present.
Everyone sat with their heads bowed, muttering complaints in their hearts.
Have a chat?
Who would dare to chat with you?
I’ve never seen such an overbearing way to chat…
“Since nobody has any objections, let’s begin the eting,” Gu Yelin said, giving An Yiqing an approving look and smoothly taking over the conversation.
His treasure should be this domineering—any trouble would be on him!
The eting lasted a full two hours, and no objections were raised again, thanks to the dical skills and prowess An Yiqing had displayed.
Instead, it was Gu Yelin’s tactics and strategems that earned everyone’s admiration.
“Stay behind for a mont, I’ll take you back afterward,” Gu Yelin said, keeping An Yiqing back after the eting had ended.
“Mm, alright.
I was just about to check on Ye Feng.”
“Girl, Grandpa has been doing a lot better recently, and he’s been thinking about you.
He said you’ve been too busy these past few days and haven’t had ti to treat him.
Visit him when you get the chance,” Duan Tang said with a gentle expression and a flash in his black eyes.
“Sure, I’ll visit Grandpa Duan in the next few days.”
“Then I’ll be taking my leave,” Duan Tang said, glancing toward Gu Yelin with an ambiguous tone, “and I’ll trouble Young Master Gu to take the girl back to school.” In his voice, it was clear he was treating An Yiqing as one of his own.
“Yiqing’s matters are my matters,” Gu Yelin replied with a slight dip of his dark eyes, beautifully countering the comnt.
Sparks flew as their gazes collided in mid-air.
“Little girl, rember to think of .
Don’t return too late,” Bai Yiming chid in, seizing the opportunity, his large hand ruffling An Yiqing’s dark, silky hair.
As a result, Third Young Master Gu’s face darkened even more, and Family Head Duan’s smile broadened.
As for An Yiqing, she rolled her eyes and shook her head, waving off Bai Yiming’s disruptive hand.
After sending Duan Tang and Bai Yiming off, only five people remained in the eting room: Gu Yelin, An Yiqing, An Zhihang, Lin Group’s Chairman Lin Chengming, and the Antique King Qiao Chengchun.
“Lao San, I’ll be leaving first, we’ll be in touch later for sothing important,” An Zhihang said, his dark eyes glancing at An Yiqing, his tone distracted.
“Alright,” Gu Yelin replied, noting An Zhihang’s gaze on An Yiqing, and feeling an odd sensation in his heart.
“Miss An, goodbye.”
“Goodbye.” As she watched An Zhihang’s retreating figure, An Yiqing felt a peculiar sense in her heart—why did she find this person so familiar?
An Yiqing turned her head toward Gu Yelin, “Who is he?”
“He is the third generation eldest son of the An family, An Zhihang.”
“Last na An?” He shares the sa surna as hers?
“Yes,” Gu Yelin replied, his dark eyes flashing—both shared the surna An?
A faint guess crossed his mind.
“Uh…
Miss An,” Lin Chengming and Qiao Chengchun interjected with slightly awkward expressions.
“You have sothing to say, please speak.”
“I have so health issues and would like to ask for Miss An’s help, if possible…”
An Yiqing imdiately understood, “Here’s my mobile number, let’s schedule a ti to discuss in detail later.”
“Great!
Then we’ll take our leave first,” rejoicing at the outco, Lin Chengming and Qiao Chengchun did not linger longer, and quickly bid farewell.
After everyone was gone, only Gu Yelin and An Yiqing were left in the eting room.
A warm atmosphere gradually flowed between them.
“I haven’t seen you for a few days, you seem to have lost weight,” observed Gu Yelin, gazing at An Yiqing’s delicate face.
His little white rabbit was too thin; he needed to fatten her up.
“Um, I’m fine,” An Yiqing replied with a soft smile, “How’s Ye Feng doing?”
“The dicinal bath you had him take has been very effective; his legs have been a lot more comfortable these past days.”
“That’s good to hear.
We can start the first treatnt in a couple of days then.
First, tell
about the murder case.”
“I’ll take you to see the body; then you’ll understand.”
Morgue
Due to official intervention, the recent murder case was no longer rely a personal vendetta.
The bodies of the victims were naturally entrusted to “Red Thorn” for safekeeping and examination.
At that mont, over ten corpses were laid out in the morgue, the ghastly white light causing eye strain, and the air was cold and filled with the decayed scent of rotten flesh.
The bodies were covered with stark white sheets, a sight that was sowhat unsettling.
However, these were but trivial details to An Yiqing, who was now only interested in a corpse in front of her that had been dissected.
“This person’s death is a bit strange,” An Yiqing said in a low voice.
“Why do you say that?”
“Well…
it’s always shown like this in Detective Dee.”
Black lines appeared on Gu Yelin’s forehead, and even the usually composed him was sowhat petrified.
This little woman always had the knack to digress; her train of thought was way too scattered.
“Giggle…” Seeing the helpless expression on Gu Yelin’s face, An Yiqing couldn’t help but laugh rrily.
But in a place as eerie as the morgue, even the most heartwarming atmosphere could only seem more sinister.
An Yiqing had made the joke to lighten the oppressive ambiance, “No joking now, this corpse died in a rather strange way, as if it was drained by a demon, rapidly aging and withering away.
But the most eerie part is that his internal organs were all smashed.
I faintly sll dicine on him.”
“dicine?” Gu Yelin was puzzled; the bodies had been kept in cold storage without having been preserved in formalin, so why would there be a sll of dicine?
“Yes, dicine.
But the sll is not pronounced.” An Yiqing’s delicate little nose twitched, “It’s a bit like the Corpse-Dissolving Liquid I made.”
“Corpse-Dissolving Liquid?” This little woman always had so bizarre concoction.
“Mmm, I made it myself.
Just one drop can make a corpse completely disappear.” She had used Corpse-Dissolving Liquid to deal with a few traitors who stole the dicine Sect’s secret techniques.
It was very convenient, an essential for ho, travel, or murder.
She currently had a bottle of it.
“Bang!—” A loud noise rang out as the morgue door was abruptly flung open.
A disheveled man with a full beard appeared in front of An Yiqing.
“You can make Corpse-Dissolving Liquid?!” The man looked at An Yiqing excitedly, his voice trembling.
An Yiqing nodded, who might this be?
“Can you also do ridian suturing?” the man’s bloodshot eyes narrowed dramatically, his face in disbelief.
“Yes,” An Yiqing nodded again.
“Then you—”
“Ye Hong!” The man was about to say sothing else, but Gu Yelin’s icy voice cut him off.
“Let’s discuss it outside.” Gu Yelin frowned, “Clean yourself up first, and I’ll tell you about Ye Feng.”
The man nodded vigorously at the words and quickly ran out.
“What’s going on?”
