Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
At the mention of Brother Feng’s cousin, the two fell silent. Unlike Chi Shuyan, Qi Zhenbai didn’t feel guilty. In his opinion, that kid had been courting death by wanting to take away his woman in front of him.
Qi Zhenbai asked his wife, “Is it urgent?”
Chi Shuyan rolled her eyes. No kidding!
Qi Zhenbai thought that his wife was going to the hospital mainly to see Feng Yuancen. He was silent for a while, then continued in a deep voice, “There’s no need to see that kid!”
Chi Shuyan didn’t want to waste her breath on the man in front of her, so she hummed perfunctorily.
“I’ll send you there!”
“No need!” Chi Shuyan refused without thinking. She thought that they would remain in a deadlock after that, when the man let go of her wrist. Chi Shuyan was delighted. However, the man then said in a calm and deep voice, “If you want to take a taxi, that’s up to you. As for breaking up, I never planned to do so since the beginning, nor do I want to!”
Chi Shuyan: …
Chi Shuyan got into a taxi, but her mind was still in a mess. She was simply stupefied by Qi Zhenbai’s last shameless sentence about not breaking up.
She felt that she shouldn’t have run away immediately and taken a taxi. Instead, she should have found a cup of water from somewhere and splashed it on the man’s face.
Chi Shuyan was furious. To avoid being angered to death by that man, she simply didn’t want to have anything to do with him. As for whether they had broken up or not, that wasn’t up to just him. She had already made up her mind, and didn’t plan to regret it.
Chi Shuyan curbed her thoughts and simply pondered the matter with the Yu family. Before she knew it, she arrived at the hospital.
Chi Shuyan went to Feng Yuancen’s ward. Brother Feng had just gotten takeaway and was about to eat lunch. When he saw her, his eyes flashed with surprise and he immediately got up. “Shuyan, why are you here?”
Thinking that Shuyan was worried about his cousin, Feng Yuanlin said, “Shuyan, my cousin is fine, you don’t have to worry too much! I also thought a lot last night. It’s good for this kid to stay in bed for another six months; it’ll stop him from causing trouble for me all the time!”
How could Brother Feng not feel sorry for his cousin? Chi Shuyan knew that he was just deliberately saying this to comfort her so that she wouldn’t worry. Chi Shuyan’s eyes swept over Feng Yuancen, who was sleeping soundly on the bed. To be honest, she really didn’t like Feng Yuancen. Given his identity as Brother Feng’s cousin, however, she still tolerated him. She just hoped that this kid would get better soon.
Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but ask about Feng Yuancen’s condition.
Feng Yuanlin said truthfully, “The doctor said it’s nothing serious. His body will just hurt a little. He’ll probably wake up tomorrow or the day after. If this kid is lucky, he might wake up in the afternoon! It’s nothing serious!”
Feng Yuanlin had been in the army before, so what kind of serious injuries hadn’t he suffered? He really didn’t think much of this injury.
Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but purse her lips at Brother Feng’s optimism.
Brother Feng looked at the time and asked, “Have you eaten, Shuyan? If you haven’t, I’ll get you something from the hospital canteen!”
Chi Shuyan didn’t stand on ceremony with Brother Feng and directly said that she hadn’t eaten.
Feng Yuanlin immediately got up and had her sit down while he went to get food for her.
Chi Shuyan said, “Brother Feng, I’ll go with you. It just so happens that I have something to tell you, and I might need your help.”
Chi Shuyan was still a bit embarrassed that she had gotten Brother Feng’s cousin injured last night, but she needed his help today.
Ever since Feng Yuanlin found out that his cousin would be fine, he didn’t take this matter to heart at all. Besides, he was a sensible person. This brat had courted death all on his own. How could Feng Yuanlin blame Shuyan? In any case, even if he really wanted to blame someone, he should blame Zhenbai as the one who had acted out, okay?
So, Feng Yuanlin said without thinking, “If you have something to say, just say it. Shuyan, do we need to be so polite? You don’t have to worry about Yuancen. This kid had a death wish himself, so don’t feel pressured. By the way, I also have something to talk to you about! What’s going on between you and Zhenbai? After you left last night, Zhenbai’s face was too ugly! The two of you should communicate properly!”
Chi Shuyan couldn’t be forthright about the breakup now. If she was, Brother Feng would definitely be worried and keep asking about it. There were some things she still didn’t want to talk about. She pursed her lips and smiled. “Brother Feng, if memory serves me correctly, you called me last night and gave me some words of advice! I took them to heart!”
Feng Yuanlin smiled. “That’s good! That’s good! By the way, Shuyan, what can I do for you?”
There was no one else in the elevator at noon. Chi Shuyan didn’t keep Brother Feng in suspense and directly told him about the Yu family.
Chi Shuyan first mentioned how Yu Wei had been pregnant for over a year and hadn’t given birth.
Feng Yuanlin listened seriously. When he heard that the Yu family had a daughter who had been pregnant for over a year and hadn’t given birth, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets and his face was filled with disbelief. However, he thought of something and his expression changed drastically to be replaced with seriousness. He looked closely at Chi Shuyan and said, “Shuyan, there’s something very wrong with the Yu family. They didn’t provoke something, did they? Then, the child in Miss Yu’s stomach…?”
Chi Shuyan liked talking to Brother Feng. It was very easy to talk to smart people. She nodded and told him about the Buddha pendant and what happened at the Yu residence last night. Feng Yuanlin’s heart jumped.
But after what happened at No. 5 Junior High, he no longer avoided or feared the strange and supernatural, and his eyes grew more and more solemn.
As Chi Shuyan spoke, she took out the black Buddha pendant which had split in two last night, and gave it to Brother Feng for a look. She continued, “Brother Feng, according to the Yu family, this Buddha pendant was specially given to them by an expert, so I want to ask if you can find out anything about this expert and the secret behind this Buddha pendant!”
After a pause, Chi Shuyan thought for a moment, then added, “To be honest, I’ve been feeling uneasy ever since this happened. I feel that there are a lot of secrets behind this!”
