Chapter 907 She is most likely

After Ye Wanxi finished speaking, the ward fell silent.

A few seconds later, Aunt Qiu seemed to wake from a dream, looking at Ruan Xiaoyu with a shocked expression: "What Miss Ye said, is it all true? You..."

"Auntie..." Ruan Xiaoyu panicked upon seeing this and took Qiu Ershen's hand, saying aggrievedly, "Auntie, how can you believe someone you've only met once and not believe me? You should have seen how well I've taken care of Zhiming these past few days. Can't you see my feelings for Zhiming at all?"

Aunt Qiu glanced at Ruan Xiaoyu, then at Ye Wanxi. After all, they had been together for almost a month, and she didn't know who to trust.

Qiu Linshan, however, did not share her aunt's concerns. She stood beside Ye Wanxi without objection, narrowed her eyes, looked at this so-called cousin's girlfriend, and said coldly, "Second Aunt, don't rush to conclusions. Miss Ye just said that Zhiming is very likely carrying the medium through which the other party casts spells. These days, there are only a few people who have been in contact with Zhiming. Apart from the doctors, nurses, and our family members, there is only this affectionate Miss Xiaoyu."

Qiu Linshan's meaning was very straightforward. There were only a few suspects. If Aunt Qiu didn't suspect Miss Ruan, she could only suspect their relatives, doctors, and nurses.

Although the Qiu family had separated early on and lived their own lives, they had always maintained a good relationship. When Qiu Zhiming got into trouble, Qiu Linshan's parents helped her run around doing everything they could. No matter what, Aunt Qiu would never suspect them.

She didn't dare to think about the remaining doctors and nurses. After thinking it over carefully, she realized that Ruan Xiaoyu was indeed quite suspicious.

Seeing that things were going badly, Ruan Xiaoyu was about to say something more when Ye Wanxi suddenly asked again, "Your feelings for him? What feelings do you have for him? Don't you like someone else?"

"What?"

The Qiu family was stunned, and Aunt Qiu and the others stared wide-eyed in astonishment.

Ruan Xiaoyu trembled, her face turned deathly pale, and then she gritted her teeth and burst into tears: "You... how could you slander someone with such baseless accusations, waaaaah..."

After saying that, she covered her face and tried to rush out of the ward, but was stopped by Ye Wanxi, who had long seen through her little thoughts.

"You can leave if you want, but leave your things behind first."

As Ye Wanxi spoke, she looked up and gave Qiu Linshan a wink. Qiu Linshan wasn't stupid; she immediately understood Ye Wanxi's meaning and stepped forward to forcibly search her.

Ruan Xiaoyu panicked completely and struggled desperately: "What are you doing? Help, help! Murder! Indecent assault! Help! Ugh..."

Her reaction only made everyone in the ward feel that she had something to hide. Aunt Qiu was also a ruthless person. Seeing that Qiu Linshan couldn't control her, she grabbed her gloves and stuffed them into Qiu Linshan's mouth, while forcefully pushing her against the wall.

Ruan Xiaoyu's fierce struggles made Qiu Linshan and the other person's body search less than smooth.

Unable to bear watching any longer, Ye Wanxi took matters into her own hands and deliberately reached into Ruan Xiaoyu's pants pocket.

The next second, a small, sealed pouch appeared before everyone.

Upon seeing the brocade pouch, Aunt Qiu and the others couldn't help but gasp.

Just then, Shi Lang finally escaped the entanglement of those old doctors and rushed over in a hurry. He could hear the commotion in the ward from afar, and when he opened the door, he saw this chaotic scene...

With a click, the ward door opened.

Everyone, both inside and outside the door, looked completely bewildered.

After a brief silence, Shi Lang asked in a trembling voice, "What... are you doing?"

"Doctor, please don't misunderstand, we..."

Qiu Linshan and the others did not know Shi Lang's identity; they only thought he was the doctor who had been attracted by Ruan Xiaoyu's shouts.

Just as she was about to explain, Ruan Xiaoyu suddenly burst out, forcefully breaking free from Qiu Linshan and the other woman's grasp, and lunged at Ye Wanxi, trying to snatch back the brocade pouch from her hand.

Ye Wanxi dodged to the side, easily avoiding her lunge.

Ruan Xiaoyu staggered, her face full of anxiety, and said, "Give me back my things!"

With a bang, the hospital room door behind Shi Lang slammed shut. He asked Feng Tianyu, who had closed the door for him, with a face full of curiosity, "What exactly is this...?"

He received a disdainful glare from Feng Tianyu: "Shut up!"

Shi Lang: "..." Weak, helpless, and aggrieved.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Qiu Linshan asked coldly upon seeing Ruan Xiaoyu's actions. "Aren't you going to explain what this is first?"

Ruan Xiaoyu's expression changed slightly, a hint of guilt flashing in her eyes, but she quickly calmed down and said confidently, "This is a peace charm I specially got for Zhiming, to bless him with a speedy recovery and good health. Give it back to me. Is this how you show courtesy by just snatching people's things?"

"Amulet?" Ye Wanxi looked at this person's stubbornness, as if he wouldn't admit it until he was faced with a fatal mistake, and chuckled, "This is the first time I've heard that amulets require the hair and blood of the person making the prayer."

"What?" Aunt Qiu wasn't stupid; Ruan Xiaoyu's various unusual behaviors had already aroused her suspicion.

Hearing Ye Wanxi's words again, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "This brocade pouch contains Zhiming's hair and blood? This..."

"You should ask Young Master Qiu about this. Boys are different from girls. When someone takes your hair, you should feel something, not at all."

As soon as Ye Wanxi said this, everyone looked at Qiu Zhiming, who was lying on the hospital bed and hadn't uttered a sound from beginning to end.

Qiu Zhiming's expression was quite unpleasant at this moment. Ye Wanxi's question brought it to his mind.

More than two months ago, on the third day after they met, Ruan Xiaoyu used the excuse that his hair was too long and she wanted to get a haircut and change her hairstyle, so he took her to the hair salon to get her hair cut.

That must have been the time when the other party got hold of my hair.

As for the blood... it was during those days that he accidentally cut himself on a rivet on the edge of his shirt, causing a little bleeding.

Because the wound was very small, it only bled a little at first, but then it was fine. He didn't even need to use a band-aid, so Qiu Zhiming didn't think much of it.

Now that I think about it carefully, it's absurd that the rivets on the clothes, which looked sharp, would draw blood if touched.

What's most intriguing is that these clothes were originally a gift from Ruan Xiaoyu!

Realizing this, Qiu Zhiming's former joy turned into a chilling feeling. What he thought was a beautiful love was actually a premeditated and insidious murder, which had a significant impact on him.

“She definitely had a chance to get my hair and blood; in the two months we’ve been dating, she was the most likely person to do so.”

Qiu Zhiming's words were undoubtedly a death sentence for Ruan Xiaoyu. Even Qiu Ershen, who had initially wanted to defend her, turned cold and looked at her as if she wanted to skin her alive.
