Chapter 158 Dreaming of Annoying Insects: An Absurd Speculation

Chapter 158 Dreaming of Annoying Insects: An Absurd Speculation
Don't mess with your angry younger brother.

Li Jingmo could only regretfully abandon her plan to find out her brother's thoughts for the time being.

However, based solely on his younger brother's momentary lapse in concentration when he bumped into a lamppost, he was now certain that even if Shu Heng hadn't yet fallen for the girl, she held a special place in his heart.

This is enough.

He should just wait and see.

After filling their stomachs at a restaurant, the two brothers walked back to digest their food.

The topic then shifted to the purpose of Li Chengxiao's hasty arrival.

“There’s another person with Ge Dahai, and I think he’s worth investigating as well.”

"That Secretary Yang?"

"That's right. This Secretary Yang has been with Ge Dahai since he first rose to prominence, and it's been quite a few years now. His position has remained unshaken, which shows how much Ge Dahai trusts him. He probably trusts him more than even his bedmate. This Secretary Yang has definitely handled a lot of Ge Dahai's dirty work."

"Yes, Secretary Yang, that's certainly a breakthrough. However, the most important thing right now is to figure out why Ge Dahai was suddenly transferred to another hospital, and where he went."

Speaking of this, Li Jingmo wanted to scratch his head.

“I’ve retrieved all of Ge Dahai’s resuscitation records from the night before he was transferred to another hospital. Given his physical condition, unless the world’s medical technology advances fifty years in a row, there’s no hope of him recovering. Otherwise, it won’t matter which hospital you go to. The hospital you’re in already has top-notch medical standards; you can’t transfer to one with worse conditions, can you?”

"This transfer to another hospital is very suspicious."

Back in Li Jingmo's office, Li Chengxiao sat down at the desk, picked up a folder and laptop, and began a more detailed analysis.

Seeing him like this, Li Jingmo silently swallowed back the words she wanted to say to him to rest, and turned to the tea corner next to her to make herself a cup of tea.

If his younger brother doesn't rest, he, as the older brother, feels embarrassed to rest either.

Let's investigate that Secretary Yang again!
The office lights stayed on quietly all night.

Jiang Hanying is having another dream.

After inheriting the original owner's body, she rarely dreamed, and the content of her dreams was also quite irregular.

However, dreaming is a privilege she has after gaining a physical body. She couldn't understand what it felt like to dream before, but she is still quite interested in dreaming occasionally.

But this dream made her feel uneasy.

She actually dreamed of a bunch of bugs this time!
It's the kind of insect she finds most disgusting.

They crave human brains and meat, yet they possess remarkable resilience and are a rare insect that actually uses its brain. They are also adept at camouflage, making them incredibly difficult to kill!

Jiang Hanying was successfully woken up by the nausea.

I couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard I tried, and seeing that it was already light outside, I decided to get up.

After a quick wash, she sent a message to Pei Yuan downstairs and headed straight for her studio, which wasn't far away.

When she arrived, the studio's front door was not yet open, but the back door was.

The two aunties in charge of cooking are already busy in the kitchen.

She strolled over and startled the person.

"Teacher Jiang, you're up so early!"

When faced with elders who provide her with delicious food, Jiang Hanying behaved very obediently, saying, "Just call me Hanying, you two aunties. You can continue with your work and just pretend I don't exist."

Don't let her affect the cooking time of the food.

By shamelessly camping out in the kitchen, Jiang Hanying successfully ate the first batch of freshly steamed xiaolongbao (soup dumplings).

When Pei Yuan woke up and saw the message, she was already in the second cage.

Remembering that Brother Guan had just asked her to help supervise yesterday, Pei Yuan thought: I want to die!
Who would have thought that someone would get up even earlier than her, the assistant, just to come to the studio's kitchen and eat!

I doubt any artist in the entire studio would do something like this.

"Here, take this basket, they're fresh out of the steamer, they smell amazing!" Is she the kind of person who can be bought off by a basket of xiaolongbao (soup dumplings)?
Pei Yuan looked at the steaming dumplings pushed in front of her, their aroma of steaming dough and meat wafting towards her, and couldn't help but swallow.

Okay, she is!
"I'll go get some more chili oil, soy sauce, and vinegar to dip it in."

"Go ahead, get some for me too."

Pei Yuan was almost full after finishing a basket of xiaolongbao and drinking a cup of freshly squeezed soy milk.

Looking up, I saw Jiang Hanying eating scallion pancakes again.

It was fresh out of the pan; the auntie brought it out for her as soon as it was cooked.

Seeing how much she was enjoying her food, I couldn't bring myself to tell her to eat less.

So, after hearing her hesitate, Jiang Hanying persisted and ate another bowl of beef noodles with more beef than noodles before finally putting down her chopsticks with satisfaction.

Pei Yuan couldn't help but mutter softly, "How come we're eating even more since leaving the base?"

"Huh?" Jiang Hanying put down the tissue she was wiping her mouth. "What did you just say?"

"Sis, did you eat a lot this morning? I feel like you can eat even more than you did at the base!"

"The food the aunties made was so delicious that I couldn't resist eating more..."

Jiang Hanying paused mid-sentence.

He picked up the phone that was lying to the side and unlocked it.

Now that the phone is back in her hands, she is confident that even if it breaks, she will never lose it. She hasn't deleted the messages and photos that Lin Shuangshuang sent her before, and she scrolled up and looked at them again.

The so-called life-saving drug can make a person who has just been rescued from a heart attack recover quickly.

But the person became increasingly strange.

I've been eating more and more, but I've actually gotten thinner.

And then there's that so-called uncle who would do anything without hesitation, even if it meant Ge Dahai's death.

Finally, Jiang Hanying opened the photo of the black box that Lin Shuangshuang had sent her again, looking at the barely visible dark red pattern on top.

Zooming in to the maximum, I could finally see the slight raised pattern.

This pattern doesn't come with the box; it's made of many very fine threads wrapped around it.

has a problem!
Big question!
She instinctively felt that her guesses were absurd, but now they all seemed to be coming together!

Even if it seems absurd, it could still be true.

After staring at the message for a while, Jiang Hanying slowly typed out: "Sister Shuangshuang, have Ge Dahai and his uncle undergone any changes in their heads, such as hair loss or baldness, or dark red tattoo-like lines on their scalps?"

After the message indicated that the message was sent successfully, she didn't look at the photo of the box again.

Now that she has a guess, looking at the photos again makes her afraid she might throw up the breakfast she just ate!

Lin Shuangshuang was awakened by the vibration of her cell phone under her pillow.

Upon seeing that it was a message from Jiang Hanying, he quickly covered himself with the blanket and opened it.

After reading the few lines of text on her phone screen, she immediately thought of how she always managed to sweep up a lot of hair from Ge Dahai's room floor when she cleaned it these past few days.

Moreover, since he returned, he has never once called her over to torment her.

As for Ge Dahai's uncle, the room floor was spotless, but if it weren't for this reminder, she wouldn't have realized that from the first time she met him, he seemed to have never taken off his hat!

But she had never really noticed whether there were any lines on her scalp.

She's already living in constant fear, not even daring to look the two people under the same roof in the eye!

The silk quilt covering her body was soft and warm, but even though Lin Shuangshuang wrapped herself tightly in it, she still felt cold to the bone.
