Chapter 490: How Did the Real Zhou Manqing Die?
After the real Zhou Manqing left, Chi Shuyan looked at the blood on the floor, the unconscious Yu Rong, and the seriously injured Zhou Manqing, and her head hurt terribly.
She also glanced at the man next to her, whose face was stiff and unsightly. She subconsciously felt a little guilty. If that malicious ghost had really struck her just now, she didn’t think anything would happen to her.
But this man didn’t know. Did he think she had been feeling soft-hearted?
She did actually have some sympathy for the truly miserable Zhou Manqing, but that didn’t mean that she was a saint, and would sacrifice her own life because of someone else’s misery.
She wasn’t that great and kind.
It had indeed been impossible for her to watch the real Zhou Manqing’s soul scatter just now, but the main reason was: even if she wasn’t a Celestial Master, if the soul of the genuinely wronged Zhou Manqing really scattered in front of her, it would be very disadvantageous to Chi Shuyan’s cultivation in the future.
The man beside her pursed his lips and didn’t say a word, his whole body radiating cold air. Chi Shuyan subconsciously tugged at the man’s clothes and whispered, “Let’s go!”
Qi Zhenbai couldn’t be bothered whether the fake Zhou Manqing lived or died. He lifted his feet and left. Chi Shuyan simply folded a talisman into a small paper man, blew on him and told him to deal with the rest, before she followed the man out.
When they went out, they took advantage of the fact that the nurse on night duty was fast asleep to take the elevator down.
When the two of them walked out of the hospital and to the car, Chi Shuyan saw that the man next to her still didn’t intend to talk to her. She was slightly anxious, and tugged at his clothes and called out to him. “Qi Zhenbai! In fact, I would have been fine if that malicious ghost had struck me just now!”
The man pursed his lips and didn’t speak, so Chi Shuyan continued, “I do think that the real Zhou Manqing is too unlucky and died too tragically. You saw her just now, so you can imagine how tragic her death was. Not only did Zhou Manning kill the real Zhou Manqing, she also replaced her in everything. She might even have pretended in front of her boyfriend. I really think she was too tragic and unlucky. In the years after her debut, she did a lot of charity work. In the face of the tragic death of such an innocent person, do you think I can just watch her soul scatter?”
After a pause, Chi Shuyan continued, “In fact, I’m not really that soft-hearted. At most, I sympathize with Zhou Manqing a little! I know how valuable my life is. I’m not a saint; I won’t give up my life just because of how tragic it was for the other party. When you first arrived, it really wasn’t that I was being soft-hearted; I was wondering how the real Zhou Manqing died. How on earth did that woman, Zhou Manning, turn Zhou Manqing into something that’s neither human nor ghost? I was only a little careless.”
Chi Shuyan’s mouth was dry. Seeing that the face of the originally expressionless and cold man next to her had at least relaxed a little, she finally heaved a sigh of relief.
When the man had picked her up to avoid the malicious ghost, she had sensed that his body was stiff and his hands trembled. It was clear that he had been scared witless.
Chi Shuyan promised again that she wouldn’t be distracted when she exorcised malicious ghosts in the future. Who cared if the malicious ghost had been wronged or not? She would just subdue it first!
Qi Zhenbai’s expressionless face finally relaxed, and he said coldly, “Mark your words!”
Chi Shuyan hurriedly nodded, but she was still curious about how the real Zhou Manqing died. This man had a higher IQ, so Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but ask, “How on earth do you think the real Zhou Manqing was killed by Zhou Manning?
