Chapter 758: Shen Jing was Poisoned
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Mo Wen frowned deeply. He could see from Qin Xiaoyou’s expression that many things must have happened over this period.
Yun Xiaoman and Xu Qianqian have disappeared one after another. What happened? The two girls should not have any enemies. Furthermore, Yun Xiaoman’s family was not your average family. Her paternal grandfather was a highly ranked officer in the military. Who would dare to kidnap her? Even if she was kidnapped, why could she not be found even after so long?
Mo Wen could sense that this situation was unusual. An ordinary person would not be able to do this.
Could it be...!
He suddenly thought of the Ghost Lair. Some things happened on his way back. The Ghost Lair were capturing women who had special constitutions all over the world. Could their disappearance have something to do with the Ghost Lair? An ordinary missing person case would not trouble the Yun family as much.
“What else? Tell me about it as well.” Mo Wen looked into Qin Xiaoyou’s eyes as he asked her. He could clearly sense that Qin Xiaoyou still had things that she had not told him. She was not a deceitful person who was good at telling lies. There must be something more serious that she was hiding.
“Teacher Shen Jing...” Qin Xiaoyou sighed deeply.
“What happened to her?” Mo Wen asked. His expression did not change.
“She’s in the hospital in a coma. But rest assured, her condition is not at its worst. But...” Qin Xiaoyou sighed worriedly, not knowing how to tell Mo Wen about it.
“What exactly is the matter?” Mo Wen frowned. He calmed down slightly. Shen Jing was in the hospital? Who had dared to touch his woman! However, he felt reassured knowing that Shen Jing was only in a coma.
“Two weeks ago, Teacher Shen Jing tried to poison herself at home. She is still in a coma now. I thought of many ways to help and even tried to find the miracle physician from the Ghost Physicians Hu Clan through your sister, Gu Jingman. However, they were all no help. The doctor said that Teacher Shen Jing had damaged her brain permanently because of the poison. She will remain in a vegetative state if a miracle does not happen.”
Qin Xiaoyou looked at Mo Wen somewhat worriedly. She knew that Mo Wen had a special connection with Shen Jing. If Teacher Shen Jing were to really be in a vegetative state...
“Why did she take poison and try to commit suicide?” Mo Wen asked gravely.
Furthermore, even the miracle physician from the Ghost Physicians Hu Clan could not help her. That must not be an ordinary poison. Where did Shen Jing get that poison?
“Because...she refused to marry someone else because of you.” Qin Xiaoyou said softly.
“What?” Mo Wen’s eyes grew large. Marry someone else? What did that mean!
“Teacher Shen Jing is really quite pitiful...” Qin Xiaoyou’s eyes were sad. She thought of her own background and her eyes grew red without her realizing.
Shen Jing had once been an orphan and had been adopted by her current adoptive parents when she was three. Her adoptive parents loved her very much and treated her as if she were their biological child. However, when she was 10, her adoptive parents who had thought they were barren got pregnant. And they had a son.
From then on, everything changed...
That was why Shen Jing had been self-reliant since she was a child. She rarely went home after she started working and had always lived away from the family home.
Shen Jing’s adoptive parents were rich businesspeople. They were from a wealthy family and their business was doing well. However, because of their dealings in the business world, they grew to be more and more snobbish. They asked Shen Jing to return home to force her to marry a man from a wealthy family.
“I heard this from Sister Lin Qing. Teacher Shen Jing’s adoptive parents locked her in the house to force her to marry that wealthy man. They were going to force her to marry him. Actually, she had already somewhat guessed what was going on when she returned home. She was frantically trying to find you that day. She stole a bottle of sodium cyanide from the hospital and hid it on herself before she went home when she couldn’t find you.”
Qin Xiaoyou’s face was slightly pale. She studied medicine and knew that sodium cyanide was the most potent of poisons. It was a poison that could kill one instantaneously. Teacher Shen Jing had stolen a large bottle of highly concentrated sodium cyanide. The entire hospital had been shaken to the core when the bottle of sodium cyanide was discovered missing. However, when they found that it was Shen Jing who had taken it, it was already too late. She had already consumed it in an attempt at suicide.
“I didn’t know about this, or I definitely would have tried to stop it.”
Qin Xiaoyou lowered her head. Her eyes were full of self-reproach. She only found out after the incident and then, met Lin Qing and Gu Jingman. They both had tried their best to help her but to no avail. It seemed that Teacher Shen Jing was really on the brink of death.
Mo Wen’s expression was dark. He never knew that Shen Jing had such a pair of adoptive parents.
“Go to the hospital quickly to visit Teacher Shen Jing. Otherwise...”
Qin Xiaoyou wanted to say that he might not get to see her ever again. But she swallowed her words before she could say them.
“Which hospital is she in?” Mo Wen asked.
“Jing Hua First Military Hospital.”
Shen Jing’s parents were from Charm City and she received treatment at the People’s Hospital of Charm City after the incident. She was later transferred to Jing Hua First Military Hospital for her parents to take better care of her.
Mo Wen and Qin Xiaoyou headed for Jing Hua First Military Hospital. Their taxi pulled up outside and they got out. Mo Wen looked at the grand sign outside. He did not expect to come to such a place.
Qin Xiaoyou stood beside Mo Wen silently, holding on to his arm. She wisely remained silent.
The ward was in the VIP area of the hospital. The environment and treatment here were the best. It was usually meant for the use of important personnel but Shen Jing had been given a special allowance to stay here.
A nurse stopped Mo Wen at the entrance. They were not family nor were they accompanied by family. The nurse refused to let them through.
In the end, Mo Wen had to call Han Jiangong before they were allowed into the room.
The room was very spacious. The usual scent of disinfectant was not present inside. The air was very fresh. A pale woman was lying on the bed. Her eyes were tightly shut. It was Shen Jing.
“Brother Mo, there is nothing I can do this time.” Han Jiangong smiled bitterly. Shen Jing’s illness was too strange. He had been in the medical profession for many years, but he had never heard or seen anything like this.
Others might be poisoned and slip into a coma after consuming highly concentrated sodium cyanide. But how could he not be aware? Sodium cyanide was a strong poison and one would die immediately upon coming into contact with it. However, he had personally drawn blood from Shen Jing when she was admitted into the hospital. There were no traces of any sodium cyanide in her blood. Not even a little.
He even wondered whether Shen Jing had consumed sodium cyanide. Otherwise, how could there not be any trace of it within her body?
In conclusion, he was confused as well now and did not know why she was ill.
Mo Wen nodded and walked up to Shen Jing’s side. He looked at the comatose beauty and a hint of self-reproach flashed through his eyes.
“You can all go. I will take a look at her,” Mo Wen said.
Han Jiangong knew that Mo Wen was highly skilled in medicine. He did not say anything else and left the room with Qin Xiaoyou. However, he did not leave. Instead, he sat in the corridor outside, stopping the other nurses and doctors from disturbing Mo Wen.
“You should have told me earlier about this kind of thing. Aren’t you silly?”
Mo Wen sat beside Shen Jing, touching her face. He sighed softly. Actually, he could tell that something was troubling Shen Jing long ago. However, he did not manage to find out from her what it was. He thought it had something to do with him, and that she was annoyed at his philandering ways. He thought she wanted to force him into marrying her and did not think that it was because of this.
Now that he thought about it, Shen Jing forcing him to marry her was probably her trying to act first and ask later. She wanted to stop her adoptive parents from saying anything.
Mo Wen reached out to put his hand on Shen Jing’s forehead. Moments later, his face paled drastically.
15 minutes later, the door to the room opened slowly. Mo Wen emerged from within.
“How is it?” Qin Xiaoyou stood up immediately, asking rather anxiously.
Mo Wen walked out from the room. His face was very pale. Qin Xiaoyou realized that there was sweat on his forehead and his eyes looked panicked.
“What happened to Shen Jing? She definitely was not poisoned!”
Mo Wen breathed in deeply and stared at Qin Xiaoyou. There were traces of blood in his eyes.
“I...I don’t know either. Sister Lin Qing said that Teacher Shen Jing had become like this after she consumed sodium cyanide at home...”
Qin Xiaoyou turned pale and she started to panic. Mo Wen’s gaze made her feel uneasy.
“Brother Mo, you can’t find the cause of the illness either?” Han Jiangong asked gravely. He was also a doctor and he could see the uncertainty in Mo Wen’s eyes.
Mo Wen shook his head and said, “Brother Han, I want to take Shen Jing away.”
Shen Jing did not have to stay in the hospital. If he could not find the cause for her illness, then the hospital most definitely couldn’t.
When he was examining Shen Jing in the room earlier, he could not find any cause for her illness. Also, she was relatively healthy and was full of life and vitality. However, it was as if her soul was in deep sleep and he could not rouse her. He had employed many different methods, but none of them worked!
He had practiced medicine for many years, and this made Mo Wen feel helpless. There were many illnesses that cannot be cured, but this was the first time he had encountered such an odd situation. Other illnesses, even if they were terminal, would at least have a cause. He would be able to understand the situation through some means.
But Shen Jing’s state right now was like a rock. He did not know where to begin.
“This...” Han Jiangong was put in an awkward situation. The hospital management was strict. How could they take the patient away without the agreement of the patient’s family?
“She is my lover,” Mo Wen said softly.
“Alright, let me think of a way,” Han Jiangong said helplessly. Since Mo Wen was determined, he must find a way to allow it. Furthermore, the relationship between Mo Wen and Shen Jing was not different to him being a relative. He could take the patient away.
Han Jiangong helped to arrange for Shen Jing’s discharge. Two people approached not long after they left.
One of them wore a female business suit and had an extraordinary aura. The other was an old man who dressed in a traditional and simple style.
Mo Wen knew both of them. They were Lin Qing and Hu Tianfeng, the old master of the Ghost Physicians Hu Clan. Hu Clan had become close with Dafang Sect since the Ghost Physicians Hu Clan submitted to Mo Wen. The Hu Clan and Dfang Sect combined to become one.
The old master of the Ghost Physicians Hu Clan, Hu Tianfeng, had left the mountain and come especially for Shen Jing after he found out the relationship between her and Mo Wen. However, Shen Jing’s condition was too strange and he could not help either.
