Power and wealth bring fragrance

Outside the ward, the air in the corridor was so stuffy it was suffocating.

Dean Hong flung Wei Yuan's wrist away, unable to hold back any longer. He lowered his voice and complained anxiously and helplessly, his tone full of frustration and disappointment.

"My little darling! You're really going to get me killed today!"

He held his forehead, looking distressed, his back already soaked in cold sweat.

"I risked my life to bring you here, braving everyone's criticism and staking my entire reputation. What was I after?"

"They just want you to cure Old Chen because they value your superb skills in traditional Chinese medicine."

"But you, instead of using the orthodox and exquisite skills of traditional Chinese medicine, insist on talking about mysterious and superstitious things like evil spirits and yin energy!"

"Now look what's happened! Old Chen's illness wasn't cured, we didn't gain a single favor, and instead, we've completely offended the entire Chen family!"

As Dean Hong spoke, he became increasingly flustered, his eyes filled with deep worry.

"You have no idea how terrifying the Chen family's foundation is! They are a top-tier family deeply rooted in both political and business circles, with intricate and far-reaching influence!"

"If we humiliate and curse them like this today, and the Chen family retaliates, we won't be able to withstand their wrath!"

"Our futures are completely ruined today!"

Despite Dean Hong's anxious complaints, Wei Yuan's expression remained unchanged, maintaining his calm and composed demeanor.

He offered no explanation, nor did he express remorse. He simply stared calmly at the closed hospital room door and uttered a single sentence:

"I'm just stating the facts."

"Don't rush, let the bullets fly for a while."

Upon hearing this, Dean Hong nearly choked on his breath.

It's unbelievable that this young man is still so calm in such a life-or-death situation!

Just as he was feeling frustrated and unable to refute, the door to the ward behind him was slowly pushed open.

A group of Chen family relatives hurried out of the hospital bed. Old Chen lay quietly on the bed, his eyes still closed and unconscious, his face turning increasingly dark and bluish.

As they passed Wei Yuan and Dean Hong, the Chen family members deliberately paused in their tracks.

Chairman Chen glanced up and swept his gaze over, his eyes icy and piercing, filled with undisguised disgust.

There wasn't a single rebuke, not a single angry curse, but this deathly silence was more chilling than any outburst of insults.

The second son of the Chen family stared intently at Wei Yuan, his teeth clenched, his fists tightly shut, and the anger in his eyes almost bursting out.

If it weren't for Chairman Chen keeping him in check, he would definitely have stepped forward and started an attack again.

No one spoke, no one stopped, the group, filled with anger, simply passed the two people and strode towards the elevator.

At this moment, silence speaks louder than words. This complete disregard signifies that the Chen family harbors deep resentment towards the two of them, thus sealing their fate with no room for reconciliation.

As Dean Hong watched their departing figures, his heart sank, and he felt utterly dejected.

A moment later, downstairs at the hospital.

Several black luxury cars lined up neatly, forming a magnificent motorcade, and quietly parked in front of the outpatient building.

The bodyguards in black stood solemnly on both sides, exuding an imposing aura, clearly having been waiting for a long time, and all preparations for the transfer by private jet were complete.

The Chen family carefully and smoothly lifted the hospital bed carrying Old Chen into the private van, and the rest of the family members also got into the vehicle one by one.

With engines roaring, the convoy slowly drove away from the hospital and sped towards the airport.

On the bus, the Chen family members were still full of resentment. No one mentioned the farce in the ward earlier. They regarded it as encountering a charlatan who was trying to make a fuss, and they were full of contempt for him.

But none of them noticed that the faint malevolent aura lurking around them had already begun to surge and erupt.

The convoy traveled onto the city expressway, where traffic flowed smoothly and road conditions were excellent. The entire journey was unimpeded, with absolutely no potential for accidents.

But in the very next second, a car in the middle of the convoy suddenly went out of control and skidded without warning!

"Bang!"

A violent impact suddenly rang out, extremely piercing.

The car inexplicably veered off course and crashed hard into the roadside guardrail, instantly denting and deforming the front of the vehicle, with glass shards flying everywhere.

The Chen family members sitting inside the car were all dizzy from the shock, and their foreheads and arms were scratched, with fine beads of blood seeping out.

Although not seriously injured, he did suffer minor injuries.

The sudden turn of events brought the entire convoy to a standstill.

Chairman Chen, sitting in the lead car, was startled by the sudden impact and his whole body jolted, filled with astonishment and displeasure.

"What happened?"

The bodyguard quickly got out of the car to check the situation and returned to report a moment later.

"President, it was just an accident. The car skidded and crashed into the guardrail. A few people suffered minor injuries, but it's nothing serious."

Chairman Chen frowned, suppressing his irritation, and said coldly, "Arrange for the injured to go to the nearest hospital to treat their wounds. The rest of you continue on your way and make sure to get the old man to Kyoto for medical treatment as soon as possible."

Without delay, everyone quickly handled the situation, and the convoy set off again, hurrying towards the airport.

However, once misfortune begins, it will not easily stop once it is afflicted by evil spirits.

The convoy arrived smoothly at the airport tarmac, and everyone disembarked one after another, preparing to transfer to their private jet.

As soon as a younger member of the Chen family stepped out of the car, his foot seemed to be tripped by something invisible, and he lost his balance and fell straight onto the hard cement ground.

"hiss!"

A cry of pain rang out as his knee was instantly scraped open, blood soaking through his trousers and clearly showing the injury.

In just over ten minutes, two accidents occurred in succession, resulting in one injury after another!

At this moment, a strange and inexplicable chill welled up in the hearts of everyone in the Chen family.

Wei Yuan's words, which they had previously completely forgotten and scoffed at, now uncontrollably rushed into their minds and echoed endlessly.

"You are all plagued by evil spirits, your fortunes are collapsing, and you are constantly plagued by bad luck. In severe cases, there may even be bloodshed."

Everyone's faces turned pale, a strange sense of unease crept into their hearts, and a chill crept up their spines.

Could it be... that the young man was telling the truth?

Did they really become tainted by some strange corpse spirit?

A deathly silence quietly spread, and everyone remained silent, their eyes filled with surprise and unease.

Chairman Chen's expression grew increasingly solemn, a faint panic rising within him. Yet, he forcefully suppressed his turbulent thoughts and spoke in a deep voice, trying to calm everyone down: "Don't overthink it. It's just two accidents in a row, purely coincidental. Don't take it seriously."

"Hurry up and board the plane, getting the old man to get medical treatment is the most important thing!"

He didn't want to believe, nor dared to believe, the so-called ominous aura, and simply thought that he had encountered something unpleasant because of his continuous hard work and restless mind.

No one dared to disobey, so they quickly suppressed their fear and worked together to smoothly escort Old Chen onto the private jet. They boarded the plane one after another, took their seats, and waited for takeoff.

Ground crew quickly completed all checks, everything was in order, the control tower cleared for takeoff, and the crew operated flawlessly.

But just as the plane was about to take off...

"Buzz!"

The fuselage suddenly shook violently!

The lights inside the cabin flashed wildly, and a piercing alarm suddenly blared, tearing the entire cabin apart!

Inside the cockpit, the captain's terrified cry suddenly came through the intercom, filled with extreme panic:

"Oh no! The right engine has suddenly malfunctioned! It's on fire! The engine is on fire!"

Boom!

Thick black smoke billowed into the sky from the fuselage, and bright red flames shot wildly from the engine.

The scorching heat emanated from the fuselage, it was terrifying!

The entire private plane was instantly engulfed in thick smoke, and danger lurked everywhere!

The Chen family members inside the cabin froze on the spot, their bodies ice-cold, their blood seemingly freezing instantly.

Everyone's face turned ashen, their pupils contracted sharply, and their hearts were filled with extreme fear and horror.

Car accidents, falls, airplane fires!

In less than half an hour, three deadly misfortunes piled up one after another!

At that moment, Wei Yuan's calm and cold words exploded in everyone's minds like a thunderclap, each word piercing their hearts and crystal clear.

When afflicted by the evil spirit of the corpse, one's fortune collapses, misfortune strikes repeatedly, and bloodshed is inevitable!

It turns out... what he said wasn't some deceptive mystical nonsense at all, nor was it a vicious curse!

Every word that young man, whom they regarded as a charlatan, scorned, and deeply resented, said was absolutely true!
