Chapter 2326: Ms. Wei Covered in Blood

It’s Ms. Wei!!

Meng Yunzheng never expected that the person hiding in the back alley, barely concealed by the canvas basket, would actually be Ms. Wei.

At this moment, Ms. Wei had already lost consciousness, her body covered in blood, especially severe around her waist and abdomen, where there were two blood holes, which she was attempting to cover with her hands; however, she couldn’t stop the blood from flowing out.

Meng Yunzheng’s expression was grave, and he hurriedly moved her out of the debris. This movement made the blood flow even quicker.

With no time to waste, he immediately retrieved the pills he carried and administered one to Ms. Wei.

This remedy was meant to sustain life; Ms. Wei still had a trace of breath, so keeping her alive was their priority.

Fortunately, when Meng Yunzheng ventured out, Zhao Xi always ensured he was equipped with a few important pills.

He took out two more pills to stop the bleeding, crushed half for internal use, and smashed the remaining one and a half pills for external application.

After a series of actions, the bleeding from Ms. Wei was finally contained.

However, her face remained pale, teetering on the brink of life and death.

After all, Meng Yunzheng was not a doctor and could only provide some first aid. Up to this point, he had done his best, but he still needed to take her back for Zhao Xi to examine.

Footsteps could be heard outside the alley, his expression subtly changed, and he immediately supported Ms. Wei onto his back, disregarding the aftermath in the alley, and left directly from the other end.

Luckily, most people were focused on the area where the Firecracker was happening, Meng Yunzheng traversed several dim alleys and soon returned to the staff’s home.

He placed Ms. Wei on the bed in the staff’s room, but her condition was still bad.

She began to develop a high fever, and her breathing grew increasingly faint.

This wouldn’t do, she needed to see Zhao Xi.

Meng Yunzheng considered for a moment and decided to take her to the inn.

If she were left in this room, Zhao Xi would have to be brought here, but Zhao Xi, like them, was also under surveillance. If he came here, even the slightest mistake, Ms. Wei might be discovered.

Unless he disguised himself and figured out a plan to sneak over, but that would take a lot of time, and Ms. Wei couldn’t wait.

Having resolved, Meng Yunzheng quickly opened the wardrobe and took out a set of clothes belonging to the staff.

Standing at the edge of the bed, he addressed the unconscious Ms. Wei, "In urgent times, we must act quickly, please forgive me."

Ms. Wei’s clothes were soaked in blood, the smell too strong, attracting unwanted attention would be disastrous.

He cut open Ms. Wei’s outer clothing, leaving the inner clothes untouched, even though they were still bloody, wrapping her in the outer garments improved it slightly.

After tending to Ms. Wei’s bloodied clothes, he also changed out of his own blood-stained night clothes.

By this time, the day was just beginning to dawn, Meng Yunzheng ventured out briefly and returned carrying a large basket.

He placed Ms. Wei in the basket, then checked his face with a mirror; some makeup had faded, but fortunately, Yu had prepared him with touch-up supplies. After tidying himself up slightly, he proceeded to Fulu Inn.

There were already a few pedestrians on the street, but the inn was still quiet.

Meng Yunzheng entered through the inn’s back door, first placing the basket in the kitchen, then heading toward a room on the second floor.

Just as he reached the second floor, he saw Zhao Xi standing at the door, listlessly sighed.

Meng Yunzheng immediately stepped forward, slightly bending his back, with a voice neither too loud nor too soft, smiled and greeted, "Young Master Zhao, up so early?"
