Xu Jian couldn't help feeling terrified, as if he were truly haunted by a ghost.
Having heard that Huang Shuquan had suddenly fallen gravely ill, not only did he fail to pay a single visit, but he also stayed far away, worrying that it might bring him some kind of trouble. What if the patient became delirious and started babbling nonsense while he happened to be present? That would be a disaster.
This matter gave him a splitting headache. Day in and day out, he lived in dread, terrified that Huang Shuquan might lose his tongue in his delirium and spill all the vicious deeds the two of them had committed both inside and outside the village, completely ruining his reputation. If that happened, he would never be able to stay in Qingzhou Village again and would have no choice but to return to Jincan Temple and stay by Zixiu's side.
