Chapter 96: Unexpected Reunion
In fact, when boarding the car, Chu Jiang noticed something very strange.
His neck wound miraculously healed, which left him feeling amazed.
Indeed, the human body has a certain ability to heal itself. If Chu Jiang truly used supernatural powers to mend his wound over the past six months, it's possible that it could have healed about seventy to eighty percent.
Just like a broken bone, as long as the fractured area is properly aligned and casted for three to four months, the bone can also heal.
But how much time has passed from when his neck was choked to now?? Less than half an hour.
Could this also be a benefit brought about by the strengthening of his body by the Blood Hand Ghost?
Speaking of the changes that occurred in his body after being revived, Chu Jiang always felt something was off. Is the Blood Hand Ghost really capable of enhancing physical strength, considering it is a spectral being?
Chu Jiang even thought of Yan Wanli, whom he had seen at headquarters. Yan Wanli also had incredible physical explosiveness, but that was due to the power brought by the "Corpses of Ghosts."
Perhaps the changes in his body are not related to the Blood Hand Ghost, but possibly connected to the Ghost Diary...
In any case, something must have happened during the time he lost consciousness.
......
(Translation): The current Chu Jiang, despite being greatly affected, gained a new ability because of it.
(Translation): He slightly raised his hand, and his right hand unexpectedly became somewhat unreal. He lowered his hand, and it actually went through the car seat, as if it was projected.
(Translation): If necessary, Chu Jiang can now easily walk through walls in a short amount of time.
(Translation): This is one of the important signs of transformation from a human to a ghost.
(Translation): Chu Jiang sighed silently and still didn't change his destination. He decided to go to the hospital first for a check-up.
-----------------------
(Translation): As soon as Chu Jiang arrived at the People's Hospital, an ambulance with sirens blaring and lights flashing entered the hospital right beside his car.
(Translation): Behind the ambulance, there was also a two-wheeled electric scooter. A petite girl was driving it. She wore a mask, a white T-shirt, and jeans. She furrowed her eyebrows, looking very worried.
Chu Jiang saw this girl for the first time and she seemed familiar.
After the girl passed by, Chu Jiang slightly lowered his head and muttered to himself, "Wealthy woman? What is she doing here?"
Yes, this is Xu Xiaoxiao, who stayed at the same hotel as Chu Jiang when they were in Luozhou City.
Xu Xiaoxiao is a girl with a strong sense of justice, but she seems to have had a conflict with her family and ran away to Luozhou City.
Chu Jiang thought they would never see each other again, just like him and Sun Xiaoman, but to his surprise, they met again not long after.
Shaking his head, Chu Jiang ignored her; it was probably just a coincidence.
Little did Chu Jiang know that as soon as he entered the hospital lobby and got an emergency department number, Xu Xiaoxiao came rushing towards him.
"Is it really you? I thought I was seeing things," her voice revealed excitement.
Chu Jiang looked at her expressionless and said, "Hello, do we know each other?"
"It's me," Xu Xiaoxiao took off her mask and revealed her pretty and cute face.
It must be said that the rich lady is quite good-looking. Her eyes are bright and shiny, her face is slightly red from running too fast, and she has shallow dimples on her cheeks. When she spoke, she even showed two sharp little tiger teeth.
Chu Jiang carefully looked at Xu Xiaoxiao's face, then confidently said, "I have never seen this face before, so you must have mistaken me for someone else."
"How...," Xu Xiaoxiao said halfway, then remembered that she had been keeping her head down and wearing a baseball cap to cover half of her face because she was afraid of exposing her identity at the hotel before...
"I am Xu Xiaoxiao, we met at the Linjiang Hotel before."
Chu Jiang moved away from her side and said, "I have never heard of that name."
This made Xu Xiaoxiao angry, "You even gave me a nickname!"
"What nickname?" Chu Jiang asked as he walked.
"Rich Lady," Xu Xiaoxiao followed behind, filled with anger.
"Oh, it's you," Chu Jiang finally remembered, "We don't know each other, right? By the way, weren't you the one who came in with the ambulance? You must still have something to do, right?"
"My cousin got hit by a car..." thinking about her cousin, Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but hold her forehead, "That guy, I really wonder how he grew up like this."
"He recently got obsessed with livestreaming, saying he wants to learn to be a host and even went to film traffic accidents, but ended up becoming a traffic accident himself."
Chu Jiang didn't care at all, "Then why are you following me?"
"He won't die immediately, but it seems like his leg is fractured from the impact. I have to stick with you so you won't run off as soon as you turn around."
Chu Jiang stopped in his tracks, looking at Xu Xiaoxiao with a cold gaze, "You don't find what I do interesting, do you?"
Xu Xiaoxiao was startled by his gaze, and she took a step back, saying, "I don't, I just need your help with something."
Chu Jiang continued walking forward, "If you have a problem, go find the police, not me."
"It's a very special matter, asking the police won't help," Xu Xiaoxiao persisted.
"I asked Xiaoman sister about what happened last time. Although she didn't want to tell me the whole truth, she mentioned that she encountered a very strange and mysterious thing, and you helped her. She is very grateful to you..."
"Stop." Xu Xiaoxiao told Chu Jiang to wait outside the emergency room while she went inside to see the doctor and also requested a CT scan.
After Chu Jiang came out, Xu Xiaoxiao was still waiting for him.
There was no further conversation between them. Xu Xiaoxiao accompanied Chu Jiang for all the examinations, silently following him. If someone didn't know, they would think she was a family member.
After all the test results came out, it showed that Chu Jiang's cervical spine and neck were completely normal, but he had anemia, and it had already reached a serious stage.
Refusing the doctor's suggestion to be admitted to the hospital, Chu Jiang took Xu Xiaoxiao to the hospital's green lawn.
"Tell me what's going on, I'll decide whether to involve the police."
Xu Xiaoxiao finally felt relieved, realizing that this guy had become much harder to get along with.
"Well, you see, my grandfather has had some recent troubles."
"Let me start from the beginning, calling me 'little rich woman' is not wrong, because our family is indeed quite wealthy. My grandfather started his own business, and my father inherited it."
"After decades of development, it has now become a family enterprise, mainly engaged in steel, building materials, and some real estate."
"I am considered the third generation of wealth, but I have no business talent and no interest in it. I also have an older brother above me."
"Recently, the reason I wanted to run away from home was because my family was forcing me to go on a blind date."
"Of course, that's not the point. The point is that my family told me that my grandfather may not have much time left. That's why I rushed from Luozhou City to Luohe City."
