Chapter 206: Stolen Back
Cheng Shuang glanced at He Yun, secretly cursing him as a hypocrite, and then walked to the bedside with a calm expression.
She looked at He Zhou's face carefully, then reached out to take his pulse, frowning slightly.
"Second Master He." Cheng Shuang turned to He Yun and said, "I need a quiet environment to carefully examine and diagnose the patient. Please wait outside."
He Yun pretended to be concerned and said, "My eldest brother is seriously ill. As family members, we should be there to take care of him and will not disturb you from seeing the doctor."
Cheng Shuang glanced at him coldly and said, "Second Master He, this is my medical practice. If there are outsiders present, it might affect my judgment. You don't want to delay your eldest brother's illness, do you?"
He Yun was speechless for a moment, and curled his lips, "In that case, let's go out first. If the girl needs anything, just let me know."
After saying that, He Yun turned around and walked out, giving a wink to Madam He, the housekeeper and others outside. Everyone left the room and closed the door.
After the He family left, Cheng Shuang immediately walked to the table, poured a cup of tea into the incense burner beside the bed.
"What's wrong?" Wei Qinglang asked.
Cheng Shuang said angrily, "Scorpion tail grass. He Zhou has been unconscious because of this fragrance."
She reached out and took the medicine box from Wei Qinglang, "Go guard the door and don't let them in suddenly."
Wei Qinglang nodded, walked to the door, and listened vigilantly to the noise outside.
Cheng Shuang began by carefully examining He Zhou's injuries. She used scissors to cut open He Zhou's trouser legs and removed the gauze. She discovered that he had wounds on his knees and calves. Although he had applied medicine, they had become inflamed and festered, emitting an unpleasant odor.
Moreover, his entire calf was bruised and the injured bones were already necrotic. If he was not treated, the injury would cost him his life within three days.
Then Cheng Shuang carefully checked He Zhou's pulse and breathing and found that his pulse and breathing were weak. It was obvious that he had inhaled too much scorpion tail grass and was poisoned and fell into a deep coma.
Cheng Shuang opened the medicine box and began to treat He Zhou's leg injury. She cleared out the useless medicines, replaced them with new ones, and bandaged them.
After changing the dressing, Cheng Shuang called Wei Qinglang in. "His leg injury is very serious and has caused complications. If he doesn't undergo surgery to clean the wound, not only will his leg be lost, but his life will be at risk."
Wei Qinglang glanced at the person on the bed and said, "Then you can operate on him now. I will guard him and no one can come in."
Cheng Shuang shook her head, "I need at least two to three hours. What if He Yun, a beast in human form, finds out that I can really save him and kills him as soon as we finish the operation and leave?
And do you think He Zhou can get good care here after the operation? If he gets infected after the operation, all the efforts will be in vain."
Wei Qinglang frowned, "So what do you mean?"
"We can't let He Zhou stay here."
"Take the person away?"
"I definitely can't take it with me, so I can only...steal it."
Cheng Shuang lowered her voice and said, "I will pretend that I am not a good doctor and cannot treat the patient. We will leave first and then sneak in at night to steal the patient away."
"Yeah, how could I forget."
Wei Qinglang suddenly realized that He Zhou was unable to move now, so he just had to put him in the space and then take him out without anyone noticing.
After the two of them discussed it, Cheng Shuang walked ahead and opened the door. She said to the people from the He family waiting outside, "Mr. He's condition is complicated. I've examined his leg injury and changed the medicine, but I can't cure it. I think too highly of myself. I'm really ashamed."
When He Yun heard this, he was secretly happy, but pretended to be disappointed on his face, "Miss, is there really no other way?"
Cheng Shuang shook her head, her tone apologetic: "Your brother's injuries are too serious. I'm sorry. Please ask Mr. He to find another expert."
He Yun pretended to be sad, "In that case, I won't force you, young lady. Thank you for coming to treat me."
After saying that, he raised his hand to signal the housekeeper, who stepped forward and handed a silver ingot to Cheng Shuang.
Cheng Shuang answered the phone, apologized again, and then left with Wei Qinglang.
He Yun sneered at their backs. He Zhou's leg injury had been delayed for so long that his bones were probably necrotic. He said that no one in the world could cure him.
Cheng Shuang and Wei Qinglang returned to the inn and began to make preparations. They first bought a carriage, and then drove around the He Mansion, looking for a suitable place to climb over the wall.
In order to prevent the He family from discovering that someone was missing, they chose to start their action in the middle of the night, so that it would not be long before dawn, and they could escape without a trace once the city gate opened.
At the hour of Yin that night, it was dark and the night watchman had just passed by when the two of them sneaked to the outer wall of the He family's house and started climbing the wall directly using a folding ladder.
Wei Qinglang has a space where he can hide at any time when he meets someone. As long as he successfully climbs in, the rest will be easy.
The two of them found Langyuexuan based on their memories from the day, and sure enough, there was no one inside. The scorpion tail grass incense was lit again in the incense burner beside the bed, and He Zhou's face became worse and worse.
Wei Qinglang stretched out his hand and swept the person into the space and placed him on the big bed in the room. Then the two of them returned the same way, coming and going without a trace.
As soon as the city gate opened at dawn, the carriage left the city. There were thick beddings in the carriage, but He Zhou was not in the carriage. Instead, he was lying on the bed in Wei Qinglang's space.
Cheng Shuang rode Black Moonlight and followed behind the car.
The speed of the carriage was obviously much slower than that of a fine horse like Black Moonlight, but in order to prevent their family members from suspecting how the person was brought back, they could only bring back a carriage together.
Even though the carriage ran non-stop for more than two hours, it took it more than two hours to return to Chengjia Village. Wei Nanxing, who had been waiting for news at the village entrance out of worry, saw them coming back and rushed over in surprise and joy.
"Brother, why did you come back so soon? How is my master?"
Wei Qinglang reached out and lifted the curtain of the carriage to show him inside. Seeing the person lying in the carriage, Wei Nanxing couldn't help but exclaim, his face full of disbelief.
Cheng Shuang, who was riding on the horse, quickly hushed him and signaled him not to make any noise.
The carriage stopped at the small door behind the house. After observing that no one was paying attention, Wei Nanxing carried He Zhou through the small door into the house and put him on the bed in his room.
Everyone in the family recognized He Zhou, and they were shocked to see him being carried in unconscious. Wei Qinglang told them to keep the matter a secret and not to talk about it outside.
Cheng Shuang took a sip of water and a breath, then carried the medicine box into the room and said to Wei Nanxing, who was guarding the bedside, "Your master's injury can't be delayed any longer. I need at least two hours. During this time, no one of you should come in. I'll ask your brother to bring in anything I need."
Wei Nanxing was still confused at the moment. He didn't know how his brother and sister-in-law got the person back. He nodded and waited outside obediently.
"Brother, what happened? How did you bring that person back?" After calming down, Wei Nanxing found Wei Qinglang and asked.
Wei Qinglang whispered, "I stole it back."
"Huh?" Wei Nanxing's pupils trembled. "How... did you do that?"
"It wasn't that difficult." Wei Qinglang laughed. "Your sister-in-law and I sneaked in over the wall in the middle of the night, brought the person out, and then hurried out of the city at dawn while the He family didn't notice."
As he thought of something, Wei Qinglang couldn't help but chuckle, "Now the He family probably thinks they've seen a ghost."
