Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser - Chapter 1126
Chapter 1126: Conflict
Feng Yuanlin really didn’t know how to explain this to Father Wei. If he did, the latter might not believe it and would think that he was blowing things out of proportion. He had to give Father Wei an explanation.
Feng Yuanlin could only say, “Uncle Wei, this matter is indeed confidential and the murderer has yet to be found. There are some things we can’t reveal yet, but I can promise that we’ll definitely deal with the murderer as soon as possible.”
Father Wei wasn’t an unreasonable person. He knew that the police station had rules to follow, so it wasn’t good to ask anymore.
At that moment, Dr. Wang said that it would be better to do a head examination after the young master woke up. Dr. Wang’s words finally diverted Father Wei’s attention. At the thought that there might be something wrong with Ah Yang’s head, Father and Mother Wei were scared witless.
It was Feng Yuanlin who consoled them. “Uncle and Aunt Wei, I think Panyang should be fine. There can’t really be something wrong with his head. At most, he was too agitated last night. He should be fine in a few days! Dr. Wang is also being cautious. I think it’s safer for Panyang to get a full-body checkup.”
Feng Yuanlin’s words finally calmed Father and Mother Wei down a little, and they hurriedly expressed that Feng Yuanlin was right.
Seeing that the Wei family wanted to do a full-body checkup, Dr. Wang nodded in agreement and went out to make arrangements.
Feng Yuanlin felt that it was better for Father and Mother Wei to worry about other things than to worry about Wei Panyang’s head.
Looking at Wei Panyang, he walked to the corridor outside the hospital, took out his phone, and dialed Shuyan’s number. He thought that Shuyan wouldn’t answer the phone for a while after his joke just now. Fortunately, Shuyan picked up not long after. Feng Yuanlin immediately told her about Wei Panyang waking up and how he had been too shocked by last night.
Chi Shuyan nodded and said, “Brother Feng, I understand. I’ll come to the hospital again in the evening.”
…
Hearing Shuyan’s words, Feng Yuanlin heaved a sigh of relief. It would be best if Shuyan could come over in the evening. If Wei Panyang was traumatized, Feng Yuanlin couldn’t do anything about it. Shuyan, on the other hand, definitely had a way to settle that kid down.
If that really didn’t work, he planned to have Jiang Duo, Xiao Ningjin and Xiong Luoying come over first so that Wei Panyang could calm down.
Seeing that it was about time for Shuyan to go to class, Feng Yuanlin didn’t disturb her anymore. He said that he would pick her up from school in the evening, then hung up.
“Okay!”
Chi Shuyan had just returned to the university and walked to the gate, when she saw Li Yu sitting on a small stone bench not far away.
The little guy spotted her first.
Because the little guy was very delicate-looking, many people glanced in his direction. Some even thought that he was lost, and walked over to ask if he needed help.
Li Yu was very impatient and completely ignored them. In the end, many people recognized the little guy as a server at Imperial Restaurant, which had become very popular recently. Looking at the takeout next to him, it was probably a delivery.
Many people secretly criticized the restaurant for not only hiring child workers, but also making them deliver food. It was too wicked!
“Shuyan, I’m here!” The little guy was very excited.
Chi Shuyan was a bit surprised. She walked over and the crowd dispersed a little.
The little guy stood up, handed her the food box, and said in his childish voice, “Grandpa Li found out from your friend that you haven’t eaten, so he asked me to bring you food.”
Chi Shuyan really didn’t expect Chef Li and Li Yu to be so considerate. It was past noon and she really was a little hungry. She immediately pulled the little guy into her arms, causing his face to turn red.
“You brought me lunch? Did you wait a long time?” Chi Shuyan’s heart melted.
Li Yu shook his head shyly. “Just for a while, not long!”
How could Chi Shuyan not know that this little guy was lying? He had probably waited all afternoon for her. At the thought that this little guy had waited so long just to send her food, Chi Shuyan’s heart warmed and softened. She couldn’t help but lower her head and kiss the little guy’s cheek. She said with a smile, “Thank Chef Li for me! Thank you, too!”
This intimate action made the little guy blush and his cheeks turn red. His big eyes widened and he hurriedly ran away.
Chi Shuyan instructed loudly, “Run slowly and be careful. Thank you, Little Yu!”
Li Yu ran even faster!
Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but laugh as she watched the little guy run away. She realized that this little guy was quite used to modern society now, and had stopped using “this royal one” to refer to himself.
After Li Yu ran away, Chi Shuyan went to Yang Lan’s dorm to eat. It just so happened that Yang Lan and Zhen Yu had just woken up.
Chi Shuyan asked if they were hungry, and they ate with her.
Knowing that it was food from Imperial Restaurant, how could Yang Lan and Zhen Yu not eat it? As soon as they heard the words “Imperial Restaurant,” they couldn’t help but drool. They washed up and immediately ran over to eat.
Every time Chef Li cooked for Chi Shuyan, it was very sumptuous and there was a lot. As soon as the dishes were unpacked, a strong fragrance wafted out. Yang Lan and Zhen Yu had just gone to Imperial Restaurant at noon to support the business, yet they still couldn’t help but swallow their saliva now.
Yang Lan and Zhen Yu were polite at first, and said that they weren’t hungry. After that, they ate more than Chi Shuyan. After sweeping through all the dishes, Yang Lan and Zhen Yu’s cheeks flushed red with embarrassment.
But Shuyan was an acquaintance, so Yang Lan didn’t stand on ceremony, and happily said that it would be her treat next time.
Zhen Yu was more shy and looked embarrassed.
Chi Shuyan smiled. Compared with eating alone, she still liked sharing food and being happy together. She didn’t like to nitpick too much. Besides, Yang Lan and Zhen Yu could be considered her true friends.
She said, “When you’re free in the future, just treat me to a meal at Imperial Restaurant!”
Although she said that, Chi Shuyan didn’t plan to let them waste their money.
Only then did Yang Lan and Zhen Yu smile and pat their chests to indicate that they would treat her next time.
“Okay, it’s about time. Let’s go to class!” Chi Shuyan packed up the food box and prepared to throw it in the trash outside.
Yang Lan and Zhen Yu were almost done getting ready. They brought along their books for the afternoon classes and planned to leave together.
A girl rushed in from outside. Chi Shuyan recognized her as Yang Lan and Zhen Yu’s roommate. She was quite pretty, and Chi Shuyan greeted her with a smile.
The girl didn’t reply. She frowned and suddenly said, “What’s that smell? It stinks.”
The girl’s sharp eyes swept over the takeout box in Chi Shuyan’s hand, and her frown deepened. Her face turned black as she said to Yang Lan and Zhen Yu, “Yang Lan, Zhen Yu, are you the only ones in this dormitory? Everyone said before that it’s best not to bring strangers here. If something goes missing, who is to blame? Who will pay?”
As soon as the girl finished speaking, Yang Lan and Zhen Yu’s faces changed. Chi Shuyan also looked a little awkward, but then heard the other party continue, “Also, it’s best to eat outside in the future if you can. Why eat in the dorm? You might be happy to eat, but what about everyone else? Do they all have to smell your food?”
The other party pinched her nose as she spoke, and opened the door and turned on the fan. Even the good-tempered Zhen Yu almost exploded, let alone Yang Lan. Yang Lan directly exploded on the spot. She slammed her hands down on the table and said, “Xia Lanying, Shuyan is my friend and my classmate. How can she be a stranger? Secondly, when was it said that we can’t bring food back to the dormitory to eat? Who said that? Or is that your own rule? Thirdly, who said that this smells bad? Why does it smell good to us? Or is there something wrong with your nose?”
Xia Lanying wasn’t someone who took things lying down. When Yang Lan made a fuss, she also fought back and said that bringing food back to eat was indeed a small matter, but who should she blame if her things and money went missing? As the saying went, one could know a person for a long time yet not know their heart. Who knew whether or not the other party might be a thief? She mocked Chi Shuyan indirectly, stopping just short of outright saying that she might be a thief.
After listening to Xia Lanying’s sarcasm, even an honest person like Zhen Yu almost cursed. How much money did she think Shuyan had? Given Shuyan’s identity, did she still need to steal Xia Lanying’s money? What a joke!
Chi Shuyan’s face was indeed quite unsightly when she listened to the girl called Xia Lanying. Her eyes were cold. She was staying outside, but Yang Lan and Zhen Yu were living under the same roof as this person. She didn’t want the two of them to really have any conflict with the other party because of her. It would be uncomfortable living together in the future. At that moment, she said, “Okay, it’s about time for class. Yang Lan, Zhen Yu, let’s go!”
As she spoke, her eyes swept over the other party’s face a few times. A cold light flashed in her eyes, and a smile appeared on her face. Her mood improved and she deliberately said, “Let’s go. If you guys aren’t leaving, I’ll leave first!”
