Chapter 450: Incriminating Evidence
The second detoxification and healing were somewhat easier than the first time.
Gu Xiaozhan had gradually awakened. He could feel a continuous warmth being infused into his body.
He couldn’t see who was behind him, but he knew it should be Lie Huo.
Only Lie Huo had such great skill.
In front of him, Mu Anhan was administering acupuncture to him.
He could see her slender, snow-white neck. Beads of sweat were dripping from her, and she steadily held the needle, proceeding methodically.
"Lie Huo, you can stop now. The poison is mostly out. Later, I’ll prepare some medication," Mu Anhan said, her face pale, on the verge of collapse.
"Madam..." Lie Huo reached out to support her.
But a hand faster than his, Gu Xiaozhan, with his uninjured large hand, held her close.
"Honey, you’re awake..." Mu Anhan smiled happily.
"Mr. Gu..." Lie Huo also shouted excitedly, "That’s great!"
Mu Anhan nestled in Gu Xiaozhan’s embrace. She gazed at him, her eyes filled with the happiness of his awakening, shining like little stars.
"Honey, let the doctor bandage your wounds."
Lie Huo immediately opened the door and called in the doctor waiting outside.
Mu Anhan had already applied ointment on the wound, cool and healing quickly.
After the doctor finished bandaging and left, Shui Chaoyu rushed in, "Brother Zhan, Brother Zhan..."
He said excitedly, "It’s my fault! I failed to strictly manage the troops, and in such an important place, there’s a mole. Brother Zhan, discipline me!"
Gu Xiaozhan looked at him, "No need to blame yourself. It’s not the first day someone wants me dead! But the entire navy needs to be reorganized."
"Yes!" Shui Chaoyu immediately responded.
"You didn’t trouble Mu Chaoyan, did you?" Gu Xiaozhan asked him.
"Of course not. I only had him stay in the room. I reasoned with him, and if he’s innocent, no one will trouble him," Shui Chaoyu said. "But there are a few pieces of evidence pointing to him..."
"What kind of evidence?" Mu Anhan asked.
"Sister-in-law, a sailor said Mu Chaoyan paid 500,000 from his account. We checked, and there was indeed such a transaction," Shui Chaoyu said.
Gu Xiaozhan spoke, "Lie Huo, bring him here!"
"Yes!" Lie Huo immediately went out.
Soon, Mu Chaoyan arrived.
"Big brother, if you have anything to say, just say it." Mu Anhan, throughout, believed he wouldn’t really harm Gu Xiaozhan.
Mu Chaoyan looked at her, "Xiao Han, I hope you’re happy. I also hope the man you marry can make you happy."
"I know, big brother, I know..." Mu Anhan nodded. Her brothers all doted and loved her.
Mu Chaoyan then looked at Gu Xiaozhan, "Once, I worked with Pei Wei, wanting to get rid of you. But after witnessing Pei Wei’s despicability and the way you cherish Xiao Han, I abandoned that thought long ago."
"What about the 500,000, what happened there?" Gu Xiaozhan went straight to the point.
Mu Chaoyan chuckled bitterly, "I fell into someone else’s trap! Back then, a sailor approached me, saying he knew I was funding children’s education in impoverished areas and building schools, and he had a friend willing to donate 500,000. Naturally, I was delighted to hear it..."
"Little did I know his friend transferred a million to my account, said 500,000 was to be donated, and asked me to transfer the remaining 500,000 to the sailor’s account..."
