“Where did he go?” Zhong Yihan asked with a dark expression.

Zhong Yi immediately made a phone call. After a while, two bodyguards in black brought Zhang Lan into the yard.

Zhang Lan looked like he was in a sorry state now. It was obvious that he was treated roughly by the bodyguards.

“Motherf * cker, you tricked me! If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have collected that sh * t document!”

Hearing this, Zhong Yihan looked at him coldly with a fierce look in his eyes. “So, you admit that you are ‘X’?”

Zhang Lan felt a little guilty and stole a glance at Jin Xi. Seeing that Jin Xi’s expression was the same as usual, as if she didn’t know anything, he had no choice but to continue acting.

“Yes, I’m ‘X’.”

“If I’m not mistaken, you’ve already received money from the Zhong family,” Zhong Yihan said, narrowing his eyes.

“That’s right, but I’m a liar. I promised to treat the old lady, but I was actually stalling for time.”

Hearing this, Zhong Yi couldn’t take it anymore and kicked Zhang Lan’s chest. “How dare you lie to the Zhong family, do you not want to live anymore?!”

Zhang Lan was in so much pain that he almost couldn’t breathe. If it wasn’t for the fact that Jin Xi couldn’t reveal herself, he would have told them everything.

“At this point, just tell me what you want to do with me.” Zhang Lan struggled to get up from the ground.

Zhong Yihan stared at him with a sharp gaze, and a chill emanated from his body. “Ms. Jin, what do you think we should do about this?”

Perhaps it was because Zhang Lan was her senior, he wanted to know her opinion.

“If he took the money, then he should do his job,” Jin Xi said with a faint expression.

“You can’t do this to me. If she’s not cured, I’ll lose my life!” Zhang Lan pretended to complain.

“Then that’s your fate!” Jin Xi shrugged.

How heartless! Zhang Lan’s heart shattered and he almost cried.

Zhong Yi picked him up and threw him into the car.

“Even Ms. Jin won’t help you, let’s see what you’re going to do now!”

Then, the few of them got into the bulletproof luxury car and drove to the Zhong family’s house. It was almost dark when they arrived at their destination.

Jin Xi looked up at some of the houses in front of her. There was black mist everywhere, and the air was filled with a pungent rancid smell, like the smell of decaying animals.

“Master Han.” The servant came out to welcome him as usual.

Jin Xi looked in the direction of the voice and saw a red shadow following behind the servant. The shadow seemed very happy to see Zhong Yihan and immediately floated towards him. Then, it wrapped itself around him.

“Mr. Zhong, you didn’t sleep well last night?” Jin Xi asked.

“Not only did I not sleep well last night, but Master Han hasn’t had a good night’s sleep for a month.” Zhong Yi continued, “Master Wu said it’s because Master Han has been single for too long. I don’t know if it’s true,” Zhong Yi said.

“You talk too much!” Zhong Yihan replied coldly.

Zhong Yi felt very wronged, “I didn’t say that, it was Master Wu who said it!”

“Ahem.” Zhong Yihan coughed a few times. “It’s not always the case. I’ve been able to sleep for four to five hours these few days.”

A normal person’s sleep time was usually six to eight hours. However, Zhong Yihan had only slept for four to five hours under the protection of the paper crane she gave him. She wondered how he managed to survive the past month.

“Do you still have the paper crane I gave you?” Jin Xi asked.

“Yes.” Zhong Yihan took out the paper crane from his pocket and handed it over.

“It’s well-preserved,” Jin Xi raised an eyebrow.

Zhong Yi thought, “of course! When you’re not around, Master Han would take it out and look at it hundreds of times a day!”

“Keep it close to your body.” Jin Xi returned the paper crane to Zhong Yihan, as if she was just checking.

However, Zhang Lan, who was being held down by the bodyguards not far away, could clearly see that there was an additional red dot under the paper crane. It was Jin Xi’s blood.

Oh my god, it would be so powerful…

Sure enough, the moment Zhong Yihan took it back, the red shadow that wrapped around his body instantly disappeared in a flame. Of course, ordinary people couldn’t see it, so Zhong Yi and the others didn’t feel anything at all.

Zhong Yihan, on the other hand, suddenly felt his body relax a lot. He even felt more energized.
