Chapter 736: Chapter 440: Memories of the Past
"Cough!" Ye Shuo coughed forcefully.
"Little rascal..." Feng Xian said with a smile, patting Ye Shuo’s head, "Shuoshuo, you don’t even greet your sister when you see her and make weird noises instead. That’s very rude."
"Don’t touch me..." Ye Shuo slapped away Feng Xian’s hand that was on his head, and rolled his eyes, "Be careful, or I’ll accuse you of harassment."
"Hahaha..." Feng Xian laughed so hard she almost fell, "Little guy, have you finished growing yet?"
"You..." Ye Shuo’s face turned red with embarrassment, "For a girl from a good family, don’t you have any sense of shame?"
Feng Xian poked his forehead unabashedly, "Yo, yo, yo, little guy, even if you stripped naked in front of me, I wouldn’t bother to look away, believe it or not?"
"You... have some decency, will you?" Ye Shuo felt like crying. How could there be such a person?
"Hahaha..." Luo Lian laughed while holding her stomach, and went forward to pat Feng Xian’s shoulder, "Sister, we’re definitely becoming friends. I like your straightforward personality."
"Sister Lianlian!" Ye Shuo glared at Luo Lian furiously, "Whose side are you on? How can you be like this?"
"It has nothing to do with sides; I just like her unpretentious personality..." Luo Lian leaned in close to Ye Shuo, staring at him, "Shuoshuo, feeling a bit embarrassed now?"
"Go away, go away..." Ye Shuo pushed her away in disgust, "I don’t want to bother with you." He stretched his neck and called out to Luo Ye, who was talking with Ye Qingzhu, "Little sister-in-law, please control Lianlian, she’s defected."
Luo Ye answered without even looking up, "Use your charm to win her back."
"What charm do I have?" Ye Shuo muttered as he leaned towards Luo Lian, "Sister Lianlian, I’m only about four or five years younger than you. It’s perfectly normal to have a younger man love an older woman. Actually, I’m very sensible and good at taking care of others. How about you wait for me?"
"Pfft!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
Zhan Ping frowned and knocked on his head, "Third brother is right here, what do you think of me?"
"Third... Third brother, well..." Ye Shuo chuckled sheepishly, "This is because the little sister-in-law asked me to use my charm to win Sister Lianlian back. You didn’t say anything just now, so I forgot about you. How about now, you use your charm to win Sister Lianlian back?"
"Get lost." Zhan Ping pushed him aside, smiling apologetically at Luo Lian, "Lianlian, this little rascal is just spoiled. Don’t lower yourself to his level."
Ye Shuo retorted, thrusting his head forward, "Huh? Third brother, why are you throwing elbows out instead of in?"
"Behave!" Zhan Ping wrapped his arm around his neck and dragged him off for a lesson.
Zhong Yi glanced at the time and suggested, "Qing Zhu has been outside for quite a while now. Let’s go back to the ward."
"I still want to watch the snow a little longer." Ye Qingzhu resisted, holding onto his sleeve, "I’m not cold, can we stay a bit longer, please?"
"No, you’ve been outside too long." Zhong Yi decisively pulled her up, and Luo Ye quickly helped, escorting her back to the ward.
Ye Qingzhu struggled, "I can move normally now, really, you guys don’t have to do this, it’s making me feel like I’m seriously ill."
"Give us a chance to show off." Luo Ye chuckled and gave Zhong Yi a glance, "Dr. Zhong, haven’t you secretly been enjoying yourself all this time?"
Zhong Yi shook his head quickly, "No such thing, how could I be happy about being able to accompany Qing Zhu every day and ignore her suffering?"
Luo Ye spun her eyes and laughed, "Your denial just proves you feel that way. I think you must have felt very heartbroken for Sister Qing Zhu at first, but then, you were also glad for the chance to be with her every day, and to take good care of her, right?"
Zhong Yi smiled wryly, "Lady Luo, can you leave me some dignity?"
"What, losing face?"
"Enough, stop teasing him," Ye Qingzhu tapped playfully at mischievous Luo Ye, "I’ve seen and remembered all of his ways these days. Ye’er, I’m really grateful to have met him."
"Got it, got it, just these few words and you’re already feeling protective," Luo Ye pouted, glancing sideways at Ye Xuan, "Hmph!"
Ye Xuan rubbed his head, he... he really didn’t mean to keep her in the dark. He hesitated that day, but she was in a sensitive period. If this disturbed her thoughts, it could be bad for her progress.
After much consideration, he decided to follow Ye Qingzhu’s advice. Moreover, there was another key reason: he didn’t want her to always endure the troubles he brought. Qiao Xiaowan and Qi Qianqian had both brought her trouble to some extent, and he felt incredibly guilty.
Just as Feng Tianzhi said, what had he brought to her? Except for the Luo Zhenggang case where he had made every effort to help her, what else had he really done for her?
All this time, it had always been her bringing joy to him. Grandpa was originally weakening gradually, but after seeing her, he miraculously started to get stronger.
This was something that had surprised the doctors during the recent checkup; Grandpa’s various health indicators had improved greatly compared to a year ago.
This might be due to the influence of emotions, and the greatest credit for all of this goes to her.
As the group returned to Ye Qingzhu’s hospital room and were chatting animatedly, Eldest Young Master Feng arrived, and with a cheerful smile, Feng Xian approached and took his arm: "Bro, am I considerate or what?"
Feng Tianzhi patted her head: "Indeed, Xianxian is the most well-behaved."
Ye Qinghe shuddered and pointed toward the door: "Go out, turn left, straight ahead for about three meters, then turn right. That room would be more suitable for you two."
"Girls shouldn’t speak so venomously." Feng Tianzhi stepped forward, smiled at Ye Qingzhu, and handed her a small bottle, "Qingzhu, I wish you a speedy recovery."
"What is this?" Ye Qingzhu did not take it, looking at him with curiosity.
"It’s our Feng Family’s special medicinal liquor that helps improve immunity and accelerate bodily recovery. You must have heard of it, right?"
Ye Qingzhu smiled as she accepted it: "I’ve heard of it, the Feng Family’s medicinal liquor is highly effective and not shared with outsiders. Thank you so much."
"You’re welcome. Whoever Little Ye’er cares about is someone I care about too." Feng Tianzhi raised his eyebrows at Ye Xuan. "Ye Xuan, seeing me, do you feel like, hate is making your teeth itch?"
Ye Xuan laughed: "Feng Tianzhi, right now my feeling is that I’m truly lucky. To have met such a wonderful Ye’er first."
"Is that so? Is this your true thought?" Feng Tianzhi stepped closer and looked deeply into Luo Ye’s eyes, his eyes shining, "Indeed, I am very jealous of you for meeting Little Ye’er so early.
But, I won’t just give up. I’ve said it before, even if Little Ye’er marries you, I won’t let go. If I find out you’ve done something wrong by Little Ye’er, I’ll expose you at the first opportunity.
I won’t care about others saying I’m kicking a man when he’s down or taking advantage of his vulnerable state. So remember, hide your tail well, and don’t let me catch you."
"Thank you for being willing to keep an eye on Ye’er for me..." Ye Xuan’s dark purple eyes shone brightly as he watched him, "But I want to remind you, if you really set your mind to this, you might end up alone forever. Are you prepared for that?"
"You’re too confident." Feng Tianzhi smiled wickedly, "What about being alone? If you’re with someone you don’t love, won’t you still feel lonely?"
"You two, can you consider the feelings of the person involved?" Luo Ye glared at them with resentment, "Today, how many times has this happened already?"
Ye Xuan nodded his head: "Okay, in the future, I’ll just do without talking."
"In the future, I’ll both talk and act." Feng Tianzhi raised his eyebrows proudly, "Ye Xuan, it’s said, why have a Yu when you have a Liang? You just fall into that category. From now on, you’ll need to be very careful."
"I will be." Ye Xuan nodded, "Having an opponent like you, I don’t think it’s a bad thing."
"Alright then..." Feng Tianzhi wrapped an arm around Feng Xian, "Let’s go, they rarely get to gather together. We need to learn to stop while we’re ahead."
Feng Xian gave a thumbs up: "Big bro is truly big bro."
"Little Ye’er, when you get engaged, I will send you a big gift. Remember, add me to the list of your maternal family. I don’t have much to do with that big guy Ye."
As the sound of his voice faded, he had already disappeared.
"He’s really not bad," Luo Lian muttered to herself.
Luo Ye let out a soft sigh, looked at Luo Lian with some concern, hesitated, but in the end, didn’t say anything.
"Luoluo, I know what you’re thinking, don’t worry, I’m just admiring, I won’t get myself involved," Luo Lian rubbed her forehead, "Honestly, in some ways, he reminds me of my foster mother’s son Monique. How nice it would be if Monique were like him."
"Lianlian..." Luo Ye stroked her shoulder, at a loss for words.
"Are you all curious about how I met Qingzhu and Zhan Ping?" Luo Lian sighed and began speaking of her own accord, "That year, I was just 16, and Monique’s possessiveness over me grew stronger and stronger. If he was around while I did homework, I had to sit on his lap.
Imagine that, a 16-year-old girl who understands everything, how uncomfortable that posture must feel? So, I kept avoiding him, loitering outside very late before going home after school.
But no matter how much I dodged, I couldn’t just not go home. Plus, on Saturdays and Sundays, I couldn’t always hide outside.
That day, because I was doing homework and he wanted to hold me, I struggled a bit, and it aroused him. I used all my strength to escape.
At the time, I was in complete turmoil. I remember that the rain was heavy that day, and my only thought was to die in the rain; that way, I could reunite with my mother.
It was in that state that Qingzhu and Zhan Ping pulled me into a café. It was their comfort and persuasion that gradually warmed my heart and gave me the courage to keep living. Otherwise, you might not see me today.
So, Qingzhu, in the future, whatever happens, you have to tell me. In my heart, you and Zhan Ping are my lifesavers."
