After my soul traveled through time and space, I became the male protagonist Bai Yueguang
Chapter 10 Moving into the Manor
Lin Han's movements were indeed very fast. Shen Zhao's room was quickly decorated and located at the end of the corridor on the second floor. It would not disturb Mu Yanchen and would also make it convenient for her to find Mu Yanchen. This was exactly what Shen Zhao wanted.
Ever since Shen Zhao inserted the silver needle into Mu Yanchen's acupuncture point, Mu Yanchen fell into a coma until night. During this time, Zhao Qing came, took Mu Yanchen's pulse, and then left his bedroom.
When Zhao Qing walked down the stairs slowly with his tired body, he saw the girl walking out of the living room. The girl was young and tender, but her eyes were surprisingly bright. She stared at him steadily, as if she had been waiting for him. Zhao Qing was a little flattered and a little shy on his face.
The girl walked up to him and said politely, "Mr. Zhao Qing, right? My name is Shen Zhao, and I'm an orphan that Mr. Mu Yanchen has been supporting."
Zhao Qing's temples twitched. He had heard about this person from Lin Han, and just a few days ago, Lin Han told him that this person would live in the manor, which would be of great benefit to Mu Yanchen's condition. He didn't quite believe it at first, but after hearing that Mu Yanchen actively cooperated with the treatment, he felt that it was feasible.
Under Zhao Qing's inquiring gaze, Shen Zhao pulled out another crumpled piece of paper from his trouser pocket. On it was a prescription that was very different from the one he gave to Lin Han. "Mr. Zhao Qing, please take a look at this prescription. Mr. Mu gave it to me today. He said it's for recuperating in the near future. I don't quite understand it, so I'll take a look at it when Mr. Zhao Qing comes. If there's nothing wrong, I'll boil the medicine for you every day."
If Zhao Qing paid close attention, he would have noticed that the handwriting on the paper was not yet dry, but at this moment, he was completely focused on the contents. After a long while, his eyes sparkled. He excitedly wanted to grab Shen Zhao's shoulders, but when he saw that there was a little girl in front of him, he stopped his abrupt behavior. He licked his lips and asked excitedly, "This prescription is really exquisite. Both the type and ratio of the medicines are very consistent with Mr. Mu's current physical condition. Where did Mr. Mu get it from? I have no idea. If I had this prescription, I wouldn't have to use those strong drugs to keep him alive!"
Shen Zhao opened his blank eyes and shook his head. "I don't know either. But when I went to see him today, he gave me one thing that he reminded me of. He said that the strong medicine I was using could only be reduced slowly and could not be stopped immediately. What do you think, Mr. Zhao Qing?"
Zhao Qing was still immersed in the prescription, and his words were stuttering. "Of course...of course! Just do as...Mr. Mu ordered."
"Then I'll go and boil the medicine now?"
"Wait a minute," Zhao Qing stopped Shen Zhao, "I still need to consider how much to reduce the current dosage. Don't worry, wait for me for one night. I will give you a new one tomorrow, and you can boil the medicine for the gentleman according to the one on it."
"Okay." Shen Zhao agreed happily. She had not planned to start the treatment today. Otherwise, the amount of strong medicine today plus the one she prepared might cause Mu Yanchen's current body functions to become disordered.
Shen Zhao was about to go upstairs. Zhao Qing had already walked to the front door, but he turned back and called Shen Zhao again, "Wait, Miss Shen knows Chinese medicine?"
Shen Zhao didn't answer directly, but smiled and said, "I know a little bit, so I can make some medicine."
Zhao Qing nodded, thinking that this was someone Mu Yanchen had sponsored himself, and was now placed in the manor by Lin Han, so he must have some abilities, so he didn't delve into it any further.
Seeing Zhao Qing leave, Shen Zhao went upstairs to her room. Her bedroom was at the end of the corridor. Next to the door was a wooden-framed window. The sun's energy shone through the glass onto the carpet in the corridor. Outside the window was a tree trunk. It was late autumn, and only bare branches were left. The ground was covered with a thick layer of dead leaves, shining golden in the sun. Outside was a wall. The wall was very high, a height that could not be crossed even with some parkour skills. If you looked closely at the wall, you could find some sophisticated instruments, an astonishing number of which were probably the security system of this manor.
She turned her head and looked in the direction of Mu Yanchen's room with gloomy eyes. Mu Yanchen was probably not a simple entrepreneur. How could a simple entrepreneur need this level of security... And when she took Mu Yanchen's pulse, she found that although it was very secretive, the unusual pulse still attracted her attention. When Mu Yanchen woke up tonight, she planned to go check it again to confirm.
There was still some time before nightfall when Shen Zhao pushed the door and entered her room. She was still stunned by the layout inside. It couldn't be said that it was exactly the same as her "home", but she could not find any difference. There was even a small kitchen and a bathroom. As long as she was dissatisfied with the manor, she could hide in her room and not come out. There was everything in it. She had to say that Lin Han had put a lot of thought into the move, which made her less dissatisfied with him.
Shen Zhao was not worried that Mu Yanchen would do something bad to her. After all, he was willing to support her life and study. To put it bluntly, everything she had now was given by him, and it was up to him to take it back or not. So she unscrupulously turned on her computer in the living room. It was definitely inappropriate for her to explore "her own" body with her current identity, and it would leave traces, but it was okay to secretly know the progress of the investigation.
It was really secretive. The sound of typing was very fast. She entered the window and browsed for half a minute before exiting. Then she opened another confidential file and quickly copied everything she had just seen into it.
Sheng Baiyi's body was found and is still in cold storage. The forensic department has not yet produced any specific results, and the police have found even less information.
Shen Zhao leaned on the edge of the sofa, raised her head and sighed. She was still too impatient.
She looked at the scenery outside the window, the sun was setting, and her stomach made strange noises. Mu Yanchen couldn't eat anything right now, but she couldn't starve. She stood up from the ground, stretched her muscles, and decided to go downstairs to find something to eat.
Shen Zhao went to the first floor and found the dining room with familiarity. There was not a single maid along the way. When she passed through two archways and turned into the dining room.
"Hello, Miss Shen."
A man in casual clothes jumped out from the side.
Shen Zhao reacted very quickly and dodged to the side as soon as she heard the sound. However, because this body was taller than the previous one, she moved too vigorously and there was a momentum that she couldn't stop. When she saw that the decorations in the villa began to tilt, she knew that she was finished.
The man saw that she was about to fall to the ground, but he did not sit idle. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the girl who was falling backwards.
Thanks to his help, Shen Zhao was able to step out with his other foot in time and barely keep his balance.
She stood in front of the man awkwardly, and brushed off the dust on her body at a loss. She looked up and saw the man's face clearly under the dim light in the dining room. Unlike Lin Han's dignified and comfortable face, he was also handsome, with only the corners of his eyes slightly raised and a faint smile on the corners of his mouth, giving people the feeling of a smiling tiger, or even worse, a white-cut black.
Thinking that her hand was still held by the other party, Shen Zhao quickly retracted it. Seeing her reaction, the other party didn't care much. He lowered his hand and gently twisted his fingers, as if he was savoring the previous touch.
Shen Zhao didn't know this person, so he pretended to be timid and asked, "Who are you?"
After hearing her question, the other party showed more interest on his face. He observed Shen Zhao leisurely, with a bigger arc on his lips. When Shen Zhao was almost at his limit, he said, "I am Mu Yanchen's housekeeper. My name is Situ Rui. When Lin Han is not here, everything in the manor is under my management."
Shen Zhao looked like he had just recovered from his shock, and then he calmed down and said, "Hello, my name is Shen Zhao. I'm hungry. Do you have any plans for dinner?"
Situ Rui saw that she looked frightened, but how could she be affected in the words she said? This performance made Situ Rui feel even more amused. He didn't know what Mu Yanchen thought when he sponsored this little girl. Why did he find such a double-faced guy?
He narrowed his eyes and smiled just enough to cover up his inner thoughts, "Ms. Shen, please."
He made a "please" gesture and raised his hand. Shen Zhao followed him to the dining table and stopped beside the chair.
Situ Rui seemed even happier when he saw her, and his heart was full of joy. It was said that this girl had not seen much of the world, and she had been commuting since she went to school, so how could she stand by the chair and wait for the man to pull it out for her? If it were most ordinary girls, they would have pulled out the chair and sat down on their own, but Situ Rui would not refuse her face, but pulled out the chair for her in a gentlemanly manner.
And Shen Zhao seemed to have an instinctive reaction and sat down as he did so.
When she sat down, she was shocked by her body's instinctive reaction. She immediately looked at Situ Rui, trying to find some clues on his face, but the man's expression was as calm as before, which made Shen Zhao feel relieved.
But I heard, "Ms. Shen, please sit down for a moment. I'll ask the chef to serve the food."
"Ok."
Unlike the last time he dined with Lin Han, this time Situ Rui did not sit at the same table with Shen Zhao, saying, "Shen Zhao is a guest, and he will not sit at the same table with her to show respect."
Shen Zhao was the only one eating silently at the entire table carved from golden nanmu wood. The Shen Zhao of the past would have been unable to eat and would have been terrified. But Shen Zhao at this moment was unusually calm. Since Situ Rui was not staring at her, she could enjoy the chef's cooking. After all, the chef at the manor was really great, better than any of the so-called Michelin-starred restaurants she had eaten before.
She wasn't satisfied until dessert.
And Situ Rui seemed to have calculated the time. When Shen Zhao had just finished her dessert, he appeared and elegantly took away the empty plate in front of her. He gave her a pure smile, which made her feel sick. "Miss Shen, what do you think of our chef's level?"
Shen Zhao wiped his mouth, as if he was shocked, and spoke haltingly, "Of course...very good."
Situ Rui looked at Shen Zhao deeply, "That's good."
Not knowing what he was thinking of, Situ Rui, who was already walking towards the kitchen with an empty plate, turned around again. The smile on his face disappeared at this time, and his eyes were cold. He stared at Shen Zhao for a moment, and then smiled again. However, it was enough to make Shen Zhao feel like a thorn in his back. He felt that he would be killed by him in the next moment, and a chill spread deep in his back.
"Ms. Shen, you know the status of my boss, right?"
Shen Zhao nodded.
"That's good. I don't want you to do anything stupid. Lin Han's trust in you doesn't mean I trust you, so you'd better be able to help!"
After saying this, Situ Rui didn't even look at any interesting expression on Shen Zhao's face. He turned around and walked towards the kitchen with a cold face.
Shen Zhao was a little afraid of Situ Rui, especially his changeable personality. At first, she didn't understand him and instinctively thought that he was a smiling tiger. But after a few words, she became more certain of her guess. There was only one thing she was sure of, that is, Mu Yanchen must be his weak spot, otherwise he would not have warned him so solemnly.
In order to avoid any further conflict with Situ Rui after dinner, Shen Zhao returned to his room. After washing up, he curled up on the sofa and sorted out some documents. Just a short while later, a shrill alarm sounded in the villa.
Shen Zhao was so scared that he jumped up from the sofa, quickly opened the door and went out, only to see that the door at the other end of the corridor was open, and several servants rushed in from outside. That was the direction of Mu Yanchen's room!
Shen Zhao ran over quickly when she saw something was wrong. She stood outside the door and saw several servants holding down the skinny man on the bed. She didn't know where the man got the strength from, and the servants almost couldn't hold him down.
The room was in a mess. The needle of the nutrient solution had fallen to the ground at some point, and the liquid had flowed out, forming a circle of dark marks on the carpet. The man's expression looked extremely ferocious due to his sudden weight loss and protruding blood vessels. His eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of fog, and he could not recognize people. He roared from time to time, and his hands and feet kept kicking, just like a zombie in a movie. The servants all had expressions of fear on their faces, but Situ Rui was there, and no one dared to let go and offend the butler who had just replaced Lin Han.
Shen Zhao looked at the man, her heart felt as if it was being squeezed tightly. She had seen so many patients, but only a few of them really made her feel distressed, and the man in front of her was one of them. She understood how much pain he was in, but even so, he tried his best to control himself and not to hurt any innocent person present. Otherwise, with his explosive power at this moment, these servants would be skinned alive if they didn't die.
Situ Rui also had a worried look on his face. He held the man down with one hand and made a phone call with the other, "Zhao Qing! Where are you? Come here quickly, Mu Yanchen is in trouble!"
Shen Zhao didn't expect that those strong drugs would start to have side effects so quickly. She pursed her lips, struggled between exposing herself and choosing to save Mu Yanchen, then turned and walked towards her room. Her room also had a small kitchen with all the functions.
