Ye Qingqing used a golden needle to kill two Gu worms, which gave her more confidence in Zhuang Zidong's ability to cure Gu. However, things took an unexpected turn when Zhuang Shicheng called that evening, sounding very anxious.
"Miss Ye, Zidong suddenly fainted and is very ill. I've had someone bring him over; he'll arrive in an hour."
"I'm coming to your place now." Ye Qingqing also found it strange.
Zhuang Zidong's condition was much milder than his younger brother Zhuang Zifeng's, so why did it suddenly flare up?
She took Wuchen and Zhu Zi with her to Zhuang Shicheng's residence in Pingjiang. Lu Mo drove. The Zhuang residence was located in the suburbs of Pingjiang. It was a huge garden villa, said to be the residence where Yuan Gongzi, one of the four great young masters of the Republic of China, kept his mistress.
This former young master was the president's most beloved son at the time. He was handsome, dashing, and exceptionally talented. He was on good terms with many literary figures and lived in Pingjiang. At that time, Pingjiang was full of socialites, and they were all very close to this former young master.
One of the most famous socialites was the young master's lover, and she even spent a fortune to personally design and build this famous villa. However, while the villa remained beautiful, the couple only lasted three years before parting ways. Not long after, the Yuan family fell into decline, the young master fell seriously ill, and died young. The villa changed hands several times, eventually ending up in the Zhuang family's possession.
Ye Qingqing had long heard the romantic legend of Young Master Yuan and the socialite, and had always wanted to see this famous mansion. Today she finally saw it. The small bridges, flowing water, and rare flowers and plants truly lived up to its reputation.
But she wasn't in the mood to appreciate the flowers and scenery. When Ye Qingqing and the others arrived, Zhuang Zidong arrived shortly after, by helicopter. As expected of the richest man, he was quite generous.
The helicopter landed on the lawn, and Zhuang Zidong was carried off on a stretcher, along with an accompanying doctor.
Zhuang Zidong was unconscious, his face was pale, and he looked to be in very bad condition. There was also blood on his collar, indicating that he had vomited blood.
The doctor described in detail the circumstances of Zhuang Zidong's illness. At the time, Zhuang Zidong was in a meeting at the company. Zhuang Shicheng and Zhuang Zifeng had both come to Pingjiang. He was in charge of the company and was busy from morning to night. However, Zhuang Zidong was in good spirits and was talking eloquently during the meeting. But halfway through the meeting, he suddenly vomited blood and soon fell into a coma.
"We tried every possible method to resuscitate him, but we couldn't wake him up," the doctor said regretfully.
Ye Qingqing took Zhuang Zidong's pulse and her expression changed drastically. Just two days ago, Zhuang Zidong's condition was better than his younger brother's, but now it was much more serious. She also looked at the bluish discoloration on his lower back, and it had indeed deepened.
"How is it?" Zhuang Shicheng asked.
"What has Young Master Zhuang been doing these past two days?" Ye Qingqing couldn't understand. How could something so serious have happened in just two days?
"I spend most of my time at the company, except when I go home to sleep at night," was the answer from Zhuang Zidong's assistant.
"It was the owner who triggered the worms' ferocity, causing them to attack the host," Zhu Zi said.
"Yin Yu? Why would he do that?" Ye Qingqing was even more confused.
That old devil's goal was to control Zhuang Shicheng, so why did he suddenly pull this stunt?
Zhu Zi glanced at her and said calmly, "Because Old Ghost Yin knows about someone's curse, and he wants to warn you!"
"How did Old Ghost know? Does he have some kind of telepathic connection with the Gu worm?"
"Yes!" Zhu Zi didn't say anything more.
Actually, it was Ye Qingqing who killed the two Gu worms, which caused Yin Yu's backlash and made Yin Yu extremely ferocious. However, once the Gu worms left their host, they could only live for a day at most, and sooner or later the old ghost would find out.
