Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Chi Shuyan wasn’t really afraid that Brother Feng would bully Qi Zhenbai, but she was afraid that there would be a rift between the two of them because of what happened today. Despite Brother Feng’s unsightly face and the anger in his eyes, however, he was still pretty calm, and he wasn’t acting distant with Qi Zhenbai. Chi Shuyan heaved a sigh of relief. She followed the two men out of the ward and then said that she would wait here.
Qi Zhenbai had no objections and followed Feng Yuanlin out with a stoic face.
The two walked down a remote corridor and reached a window with no one around. The temperature difference between day and night in summer was huge. A cool wind blew through the window, and it felt especially comfortable and refreshing.
Feng Yuanlin’s bellyful of anger was mostly doused by this cool wind. At the end of the day, it was largely his cousin who had a death wish. How angry could he be?
Without waiting for Feng Yuanlin to speak, Qi Zhenbai took out a cigarette and tossed it to him. Feng Yuanlin quickly caught it.
!!
Then, Qi Zhenbai took out another cigarette. He took out a lighter from his pocket, lit the cigarette, and took a deep breath.
Feng Yuanlin leaned in close to light his own cigarette, and took a big puff. After that, he moved his head away and looked sharply at Zhenbai, who was silent in front of him. There was still a lot of fire in his eyes, and he couldn’t help but say, “Zhenbai, do you have to be so jealous? You hit my cousin hard enough to land him in the hospital. Good job. Are you still my friend?”
The more Feng Yuanlin spoke, the angrier he got. Although he knew that Zhenbai couldn’t be blamed for this, when he thought about how it was his cousin who was hospitalized and lying unconscious in bed, Feng Yuanlin definitely wasn’t as calm as usual. It was impossible for him to be broad-minded and to calm down right away.
Qi Zhenbai didn’t say anything. He smoked silently and looked at him calmly without the slightest bit of regret in his eyes!
Feng Yuanlin: …
Feng Yuanlin knew his best friend’s character very well. Otherwise, he would have died from anger at his attitude. Although he wasn’t angered to death at the moment, he was still furious. Feng Yuanlin smoked his cigarette and couldn’t help but glare angrily again. “Why the hell aren’t you saying anything? What’s the point of me talking nonsense? You beat up my cousin and got him sent to the hospital. No matter what, you have to give me an explanation!”
Feng Yuanlin was waiting for his good friend to explain, but who would have thought that the man in front of him would take a casual puff of his cigarette and suddenly say, “That kid deserved it!”
One kick hadn’t been enough!
Feng Yuanlin had known Zhenbai for so long, so how could he not know what he meant? At that moment, he was so angry that he almost couldn’t breathe. He glared angrily. What did Zhenbai mean?
He wanted to interrogate Zhenbai and he wanted to get angry, but he didn’t have a leg to stand on – who asked his cousin to have a death wish?
Moreover, he was well aware of Zhenbai’s character. Unless Yuancen really crossed his bottom line, he wouldn’t be so ruthless.
He had heard Shuyan say earlier that this kid had been kicked just once. However, this one kick had caused his cousin internal bleeding. Zhenbai, this guy, had definitely been ruthless and merciless.
Every time he thought this, Feng Yuanlin’s heart jumped with fear. If Shuyan hadn’t stopped Zhenbai this time, the only thing Feng Yuanlin might have seen when he rushed over was Feng Yuancen’s corpse.
Feng Yuanlin looked at Zhenbai and his heart turned cold again. At that moment, he didn’t know whether to lament that Zhenbai had been too vicious and merciless, or that his cousin had a death wish and was too unlucky.
Feng Yuanlin felt that he couldn’t persuade Zhenbai nor make him see sense. It was even more impossible for Zhenbai to feel guilty toward Feng Yuanlin’s cousin.
After all, back in the day, this guy had been even more vicious and merciless than he was now – it was long engraved into his bones. It wasn’t something that he cultivated at a later stage, but was innate to his nature.
He might smile and look gentle on the surface, but he could be thinking about how to kill you when he looked at you.
This guy was definitely that sort of person.
It was only because Zhenbai tempered himself over the years and restrained his true nature that he looked like a noble gentleman who was easy to get along with – in fact, he was still that vicious and ruthless man who could kill decisively.
Was it a good thing that his cousin hadn’t run into Zhenbai back then?
Otherwise, even a kick would be enough to kill Feng Yuancen.
But what made Feng Yuancen curious was that this guy had dared to reveal his true colors in front of Shuyan this time. Wasn’t he afraid that Shuyan would be afraid and would break up with him?
Feng Yuanlin was holding back a lot of anger in his heart. At that moment, he couldn’t be bothered to think too much about Zhenbai at all. He directly spat out the words he wanted to ask and jabbed him in the chest without hesitation. “Aren’t you afraid that Shuyan will be scared and break up with you?”
Sure enough!
As soon as he said that, Qi Zhenbai’s originally composed and stoic face suddenly stiffened, and his calm expression gradually cracked. His hand trembled and he wasn’t even interested in smoking anymore. He directly threw his cigarette on the floor and ground it under his heel. When he looked up at Feng Yuanlin, his eyes were indescribably sharp, and Feng Yuanlin’s heart jumped.
But the two of them were familiar with each other, so Feng Yuanlin quickly calmed down; he wasn’t afraid of Zhenbai. He raised his eyebrows and continued to mock him. “You kicked my cousin in front of Shuyan, right? Tell me, your true character has been exposed this time. See if she doesn’t break up with you after this.”
Feng Yuanlin’s consecutive use of the words “break up” indeed struck a nerve with Qi Zhenbai, especially since his wife had indeed suggested in the cafe that they break up. Although he had said no earlier, he really wasn’t confident now.
The more Qi Zhenbai thought about it, the more his heart sank and the more vicious his expression became. He looked at Feng Yuanlin with undisguised killing intent and coldness in his eyes.
Feng Yuanlin was alarmed and immediately corrected himself. “I’m just saying! I’m just saying. Did you take that to be true? What, I don’t even have freedom of speech?”
As Feng Yuanlin spoke, he observed Zhenbai in front of him. Why did he feel that this guy’s character had returned to what it had been like in the past? But this kid hadn’t been so vicious even then.
What on earth had gotten into this guy recently?
Qi Zhenbai suppressed the killing intent and coldness in his eyes, but there was still no warmth in them. “You’re only allowed to mention a ‘breakup’ to me and my wife just this once. Don’t do it again!”
With that, he turned around and left expressionlessly.
“Qi Zhenbai, don’t f*cking leave. You need to give me an explanation for my cousin!” Feng Yuanlin shouted angrily.
The tall man stopped and suddenly said coldly, “I didn’t kill him this time because of you. You better tell your cousin to be careful next time so that he doesn’t die at my hands!”
