After Gu Ranzhou and Song Tingsheng boarded the plane together, Gu Ranzhou found his seat and closed his eyes to meditate. Song Tingsheng and Secretary Wei just sat down and saw that he had fallen asleep. Seeing that it was not good to disturb him, they could only find a place to do their own things quietly. Fortunately, they caught the earliest flight, so the plane was relatively quiet.
After an unknown amount of time, the plane landed at Hong Kong Island Airport. Song Tingsheng stood up from his seat and looked at the person next to him who was still resting with his eyes closed. He was about to wake him up, but Gu Ranzhou opened his eyes at the last moment when the plane stopped.
"Let's go and see your father-in-law." After saying that, Gu Ranzhou turned around and walked outside with his backpack.
When Song Tingsheng heard this, he didn't refute anything and followed the other party.
After getting off the plane, the two headed straight for the hospital. When they entered the hospital, a very beautiful woman ran towards them and instantly rushed into Song Tingsheng's arms: "Tingsheng."
Although Song Tingsheng and You Shuya are in a marriage relationship, because You Shuya comes from a top wealthy family in Hong Kong Island and is beautiful, and she also likes Song Tingsheng, the marriage between the two has become a mutually beneficial relationship between the two families. Song Tingsheng is a good person and will not go out to mess around. Although he and You Shuya do not have a deep relationship on weekdays, they respect each other like guests.
Song Tingsheng had no choice but to hold his wife in his arms and introduce her to Gu Ranzhou: "Mr. Gu, this is my wife, You Shuya." Then he continued to say to his wife: "Yaya, the gentleman I brought here is the Mr. Gu I told you about before."
You Shuya's face was a little haggard. She looked at Gu Ranzhou in front of her and had never expected that the person her husband had personally invited would be so young. Seeing her husband's respectful attitude, she greeted him openly, "Hello, Mr. Gu."
Gu Ranzhou looked at You Shuya and replied with a smile: "Hello, Madam Song."
"Mr. Gu, please help me with my father." You Shuya looked at Gu Ranzhou and pleaded.
Gu Ranzhou frowned when he heard this, but didn't respond affirmatively. He just said calmly, "Madam Song, I can't make any promises to you before I see the patient. Could you please take me to see Mr. You now?"
Yu Shuya nodded when she heard this, and stood up from her husband's arms and walked in front to lead the way. She didn't want to delay for a moment: "Then let's go up quickly."
The three of them went upstairs and walked into the ward. They saw a white-haired old man lying on the bed. You Shuya quickly walked to the bedside, squatted down, held her father's dry hand, and tears flowed down her cheeks.
"Dad...how could you become like this?" You Shuya said this while choking. Song Tingsheng, who was standing by, felt distressed when he saw his wife's reaction but didn't know what to say.
Gu Ranzhou frowned as he looked at the person on the hospital bed: "Mrs. Song, how is your father?" Gu Ranzhou didn't know what to say when he saw the scene in front of him. After all, among the three people present, he was the only one who could see what was happening to Mr. You.
Mr. You now exudes a dead aura, with little life left in him. But according to Song Tingsheng, this shouldn't be the case. Even if the curse is vicious, Mr. You is still a man of merit. How could he become like this now? Gu Ranzhou stared at the withered old man lying on the hospital bed for a long time, unable to recover.
You Shuya wiped away the tears from her eyes. "My father is seriously ill this time. Tingsheng and I are both very worried, but he is too weak now. I'm afraid he won't make it through the night."
Upon hearing this, Gu Ranzhou reached out to check the man's pulse and then used his spiritual power to probe the old man's heart. He then withdrew his hand and asked, "How long has this condition lasted?"
You Shuya looked at her father lying in bed and answered with a choked voice, "It started yesterday."
"I'm not asking when his condition worsened, I'm asking when he started to get sick?" Gu Ranzhou sighed and asked as he looked at the skinny old man in front of him.
You Shuya hadn't expected Mr. Gu to ask this. After a moment's thought, she replied, "A year ago, yes, a year ago, my father was in good health. He also liked taking walks and was very health-conscious."
After hearing You Shuya's words, Gu Ranzhou asked again, "Have you found out why your father became like this, or what happened to him before this?"
You Shuya shook her head and said, "I can't find the reason, but...but there is one person who knows."
Gu Ranzhou's eyes darkened and he asked, "Who?"
When Song Tingsheng heard his wife say this, he replied, "My brother-in-law, You Keyu."
Gu Ranzhou asked, "Where is he now?"
Although You Shuya didn't know why Mr. Gu asked this, she still answered: "Ke Yu has been here guarding Dad for several days. I let him go back and rest."
Gu Ranzhou looked at the old man lying on the bed and asked calmly, "How is your brother's relationship with you or your father?"
When You Shuya heard Gu Ranzhou ask this, she felt a little reluctant and stammered, "This...this..."
Gu Ranzhou looked up at You Shuya, and suddenly Song Tingsheng spoke.
Song Tingsheng, who was standing nearby, saw his wife hesitating and understood what was going on, so he spoke up for her, "My brother-in-law and my wife are half-siblings. My wife's mother was my father-in-law's first wife, and my brother-in-law's mother was his second wife after my mother-in-law passed away. Normally, their relationship isn't too good, but it's just about being on the same level so it doesn't get too awkward."
"Really? I'm afraid we won't be able to find the murderer until later. I'll give the old man a few acupuncture needles first." Gu Ranzhou said as he took out a silver needle from his bag and began to give acupuncture to Mr. You. He gave him four or five acupuncture needles in total. After he was done, Mr. You's complexion was obviously much better than before, and his breathing gradually got better, but it was still not as good as a normal person. However, this alone made You Shuya and Song Tingsheng breathe a sigh of relief.
After the acupuncture, Gu Ranzhou put away his things and said, "For now, I have only temporarily suppressed the curse. I need to find the person who cast the curse to resolve it. But don't worry, Mr. You is not in danger of death for the time being. The most urgent thing now is to please book a hotel for me. I need to rest after such a long flight."
Song Tingsheng heard Gu Ranzhou and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Mr. Gu, for causing you trouble. I've already asked my secretary to book a hotel room. I'll take you there to rest now."
Gu Ranzhou shook his head, picked up his backpack and walked out: "Well, it was my own request, it's not your fault."
