Chapter 220: Du Wei only breaks down against his real sister-in-law
"You guys chat first, I'll go see Yan Qing."
Gu Qingyan stood up and glanced at Ji Xiao imperceptibly.
"I'm with you!"
Xiao Di saw her displeasure and immediately raised his hand to indicate that he would go with her.
"It's a good opportunity to talk to Brother Fu."
Gu Qingyan nodded, and the two of them walked towards the stairs together.
Click.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of a kerosene lighter behind me, followed by the smell of burning tobacco.
Ji Xiao took a puff of cigarette out of habit and said slowly:
"He can have no woman or many women - but he can't have only one woman."
Gu Qingyan couldn't help rolling his eyes and wanted to turn around and confront him, but was poked by Xiao Di with his elbow.
"?"
Gu Qingyan looked towards Xiao Di, his expression clearly showing his displeasure.
Xiao Di winked at her desperately, and raised his chin towards the stairs.
What he meant was that she should stop arguing with Ji Xiao, go upstairs quickly and pretend that out of sight, out of mind.
"..."
Gu Qingyan rolled his eyes again, suppressed the anger in his heart, and walked upstairs.
Xiao Di just breathed a sigh of relief when he suddenly heard Ji Xiao say:
"He called me back from so far away so that he could have time to coax a woman?"
Gu Qingyan paused and turned around expressionlessly:
"My friend's name is Yan Qing, Yan for language and Qing for love, not that woman—"
Xiao Di tugged at her sleeve fiercely, but Gu Qingyan seemed to feel nothing at all.
"Since you are here as a guest, can you at least respect the host?"
She raised her eyebrows, her eyes sharp.
"It's fine if you secretly make up stories about others, but you just do it out in the open. Do you think everyone is deaf?"
Xiao Di took a breath and his forehead was filled with black lines.
A trace of surprise flashed across Ji Xiao's eyes, followed by a sneer of contempt.
He turned his head away, too lazy to pay attention to Gu Qingyan.
"Silly X."
Gu Qingyan cursed under his breath and quickened his pace upstairs.
Xiao Di looked at Gu Qingyan's back with tears in his eyes, then looked at Ji Xiao who seemed to be smiling in the living room, and was in a dilemma for a moment.
Bai Ye waved his hand, signaling Xiao Di to go up first, as he was here.
Xiao Di shook his head and sighed helplessly, then turned around to chase Gu Qingyan.
……
living room.
Bai Ye glanced at Ji Xiao and tapped the coffee table with his knuckles.
"It's so stuffy in the room, let's go out and talk."
"Ah."
Ji Xiao nodded and was about to put out the cigarette in his hand, but found that there was no ashtray on the coffee table.
He glanced around, then stood up, walked to the window, and pressed the half-smoked cigarette into the soil of the flowerpot.
After the two men left, the servants quickly opened the windows for ventilation and tried every means to remove the remaining smell of smoke.
garden.
Bai Ye stretched himself, took a few deep breaths of fresh air, and turned his gaze to the sea of flowers in the distance:
"This place is pretty nice, isn't it? Much better than where we were before, it's like a fairy tale."
Ji Xiao lit another cigarette and shrugged.
"Not bad. Want one?"
Bai Ye shook his head and said jokingly:
"Old Fu has quit smoking. To take his feelings into consideration, Shen Zirong and I don't smoke in front of him."
"He quit smoking?"
Ji Xiao's eyes flashed with surprise, but his tone was calm.
"You used to be a heavy smoker."
Bai Ye nodded, "That's right, but I just quit when they said I would - in order to prepare for pregnancy."
"Preparing for pregnancy?"
Seeing Ji Xiao stunned, Bai Ye patted his shoulder with a smile and said jokingly,
"So, let's not smoke in front of the couple.
"Besides, secondhand smoke is more harmful. What if it delays someone from having children? Tsk, I don't want to be punished by Old Fu."
He could see that Ji Xiao and Yan Qing didn't get along well.
To be honest, Yan Qing is in poor health and can't stand the smell of smoke, so it's better to use the excuse that they are preparing for pregnancy.
It’s not wrong anyway.
Firstly, it will not increase the conflict between the two people;
Secondly, it can also make Ji Xiao realize the position of Yan Qing in his brother Fu's heart.
It has absolutely no disadvantages and only benefits.
Sure enough, Ji Xiao frowned and threw the cigarette butt in his hand under his feet and crushed it.
"Hey, what's with that expression on your face?"
Bai Ye couldn't help but tease,
"Don't worry, it's not that Old Fu is being unkind and didn't inform you about the marriage...it's just that they haven't had time to hold the wedding yet. I guess, once the situation in the capital calms down, we can get things done."
Ji Xiao turned away from him, his heaving chest showing his annoyance:
"He's crazy... and you don't stop him."
"Huh?"
Bai Ye was happy, and secretly started to complain——
You think he's crazy?
If I told you that he almost died to save Yan Qing, and he had just been in bed for a few days and was out of danger, he secretly got married to someone else...
Aren't you going to be mad?
"You know who Old Fu is."
Although he thought so in his heart, Bai Ye still said it calmly.
"How can anyone else be his master?"
As soon as he said this, he added in his mind - maybe Yan Qing is an exception, maybe she can be the master of Fu Wangjin.
"That woman is of no use to him."
Ji Xiao took out another cigarette, but did not light it. He just put it under his nose and sniffed it.
"It's nothing more than an additional burden."
Bai Ye showed an expression that was difficult to describe:
"I say, you're not Lao Fu's toxic fan, are you?"
"What?" Ji Xiao was a little confused, "What Wei?"
“…Is that how you understand it?”
Bai Ye thought about it.
"For example, if Lao Fu is your idol and you are his fan... you think he can only be alone and cannot fall in love, get married or start a family, otherwise it will be harmful to him."
After all, there is a saying that goes -
The toxic fan only breaks down against his real sister-in-law!
"No." Ji Xiao denied, "I just think that he shouldn't be with a woman like this."
Bai Ye raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
"A woman like this? You've only met Yan Qing once. What kind of woman do you think she is?"
Ji Xiao shrugged, his tone revealing a bit of contempt.
"Anyway, she's not that great. She looks okay, but as for the rest... I don't know why Brother Fu would fall for her. She's just a useless vase."
Bai Ye nodded thoughtfully——
Yes, in fact, he didn’t know why Fu Wangjin fell in love with Yan Qing.
Anyway, they are just mixed together.
"Look at you, you judge people by their appearance."
Bai Ye folded his arms across his chest,
"Let me tell you this, at least among our group, Yan Qing's college entrance examination score is the highest—"
Ji Xiao couldn't help but sneered, "Are you fucking kidding me?"
College entrance exam scores? Who the hell cares about that!
"Isn't that what I'm saying before you interrupt me?"
Bai Ye explained slowly,
"This shows that there is nothing wrong with her IQ. Children's intelligence is inherited from their mothers, don't you understand? Old Fu wants to find a girl with big breasts and no brains, and then give birth to a little idiot. What should we do?"
Seeing that Ji Xiao didn't speak, he continued:
"Besides, she can play chess and the violin. In ancient times, she would be considered a lady from a noble family who is proficient in everything. If nothing happened to her family... Oh, yes, I forgot to mention that her father is a professor at University A, and the youngest professor in history, and her mother is also the daughter of a wealthy family. Whether it's money or social status, she has no shortage of it."
Bai Ye glanced at Ji Xiao.
"Only you think that Old Master is so popular. Most people would try to avoid him. If nothing happened in Yan Qing's family, she might not even consider him when looking for a partner. Wouldn't it be better to find a young man with a clean background and a gentle personality? Why do you have to follow a bloody and violent devil?
"Let me be clear with you. It was Old Fu who took it by force and pestered him. It wasn't that he used some tricks to pay for it—"
He smiled, "Don't get me wrong."
Ji Xiao's expression changed, and after a long while he spoke:
"So what? Brother Fu will sooner or later realize that the woman is not suitable for him and will do him no good. By then, he will regret it."
His stubborn attitude made Bai Ye laugh.
"I say, kid, you first thought Yan Qing was not good enough, and then you said she was not suitable for Lao Fu... Then let me ask you, who is suitable for him?"
Bai Ye couldn't help but complain in his heart - if you dare to say anything about Shen Zhiyi, I'll beat you up first.
"I think--"
Ji Xiao hesitated for a few seconds and said a name.
Bai Ye fell silent for a long time before speaking.
"Just treat her as dead and don't mention it again."
Ji Xiao lowered his eyes, his expression became much more serious... and finally he nodded slowly.
"People have to look forward."
Bai Ye said meaningfully,
"Then again, given Old Fu's personality, if he was interested in her, he would definitely pester her to death like he did with Yan Qing... How could they end up parting on bad terms?"
As he spoke, he complained in his heart——
Fu Wangjin is such a dog that even if Yan Qing stabbed him with a knife, he would probably just run over to him as long as Yan Qing waved his hand.
It's so shameless, so fucking shameless.
If he didn't know Yan Qing's background clearly, he would have really thought that she was some kind of descendant of the Miao people who could cast a curse on people.
Bai Ye couldn't help but think that when Yan Qing and Fu Wangjin got married, they would have to set up a separate table for him.
Ah, he is really an old father who worries himself to death!
***
Fu Wangjin didn't know that he had been "forced" to become Bai Ye's son again.
"The situation is better than I thought, and it hasn't gotten worse."
Xiao Di checked the monitoring records of the medical equipment and breathed a sigh of relief.
"It should be fine."
Fu Wangjin frowned, "Her temperature hasn't dropped."
"It's not a big problem." Xiao Di thought for a moment, "Let's wait until she wakes up. If there is no obvious lesion, drink more hot water, eat well, and maybe sweating will be enough. By the way——"
He turned to Gu Qingyan,
"I wonder if you could tell Brother Fu about this situation?"
"..."
Gu Qingyan scratched his head.
"Okay, sure. But Miss is secretive sometimes, and she even hides things from me... I can only tell you what I can see. You'll have to ask her for the rest."
Although she said so, Gu Qingyan knew that she was on Yan Qing's side.
For some things, since you are not sure whether Yan Qing is willing to tell Fu Wangjin, then let her decide.
"Okay." Xiao Di nodded, "Brother Fu, let's go outside and talk. Don't disturb Yan Qing."
Several people arrived outside the bedroom and closed the door carefully.
Gu Qingyan briefly talked about the chess record, and then couldn't help but smile bitterly:
"I've already told her that I'll get all the information... I really don't know what she's thinking. She has to write out all that information by herself, and it might not be all correct. Isn't this a waste of effort?"
"..." Xiao Di was silent for a moment, "Do you think she needs a psychiatrist?"
"Huh?" Gu Qingyan was a little confused. "Psychologist?"
Xiao Di lowered his head and pursed his lips.
"Maybe I'm overthinking it. But when I watched the surveillance this morning... I felt that her state in the kitchen was a little strange. Besides, you just said that memorizing chess moves is actually a waste of effort and not worth it, right?"
Gu Qingyan's heart suddenly sank, and she didn't know whether she should nod or shake her head.
“I’ve done some research in psychology.”
Xiao Di sighed.
"The reason why I didn't sleep and wanted to sort out all the chess records I wrote down... maybe I couldn't wait, or maybe it was because I was worried about the uncertainty of the future. Because I don't know what the future will be like, I have to desperately grab everything I can grab now."
Gu Qingyan was surprised, "She... doesn't believe in my ability?"
"No." Xiao Di shook his head. "It's a very simple reason. Professor Yan's information was stored in University A for sorting and decoding. Everyone, including Yan Qing, thought that there would be no problems... but in the end, the whole floor was destroyed overnight. This is the source of uncertainty."
"Yan Qing will find that many things don't go according to common sense. Even if she knows that with your ability, you can definitely help her get all the information... she still can't guarantee that there won't be any accidents in the process that will lead to failure."
"So, she has to write down everything she remembers. This can be done in a few hours, without any uncertainty... Perhaps, it is also a source of security."
Xiao Di rubbed his brows with a headache.
"I think she was caught in some kind of misunderstanding - she was using her life to achieve something that she thought was important."
Gu Qingyan didn't say anything, but looked at Fu Wangjin.
"Brother Fu..."
Xiao Di wanted to say something but stopped.
Fu Wangjin's eyes darkened, and he pursed his thin lips tightly. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard Yan Qing's weak voice coming from the door -
"anyone there?"
"She's awake."
Fu Wangjin took a deep breath, opened the door and walked in, his expression becoming much gentler.
"Qingqing, do you feel better?"
Outside the bedroom, Gu Qingyan looked shocked.
She asked Xiao Di softly,
"How did he know that the young lady was awake? Telepathy?"
"This one……"
Xiao Di smiled bitterly and touched the back of his head.
"Is it possible that he has good hearing?"
"Then I'm not deaf!"
Gu Qingyan's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.
"This door is so soundproof, how could he hear what's going on inside?"
Xiao Di was helpless, "Actually, if we talk like this now, Brother Fu can hear everything clearly..."
Gu Qingyan was silent.
In the bedroom.
Yan Qing pulled the clip off her thumb and pouted in dissatisfaction.
"No wonder I feel uncomfortable somewhere...it hurts a little bit."
She raised her face and looked at Fu Wangjin with a smile:
"I'm so thirsty, can you give me some water?"
As if he remembered something, he quickly added,
"If there was orange juice...it would be even better."
Fu Wangjin nodded and rubbed her head.
"Okay, just lie down and I'll do it."
After saying that, he left the bedroom.
Xiao Di took the opportunity to walk to the bedside and asked Yan Qing carefully,
"Um... Yan Qing, forgive me for being so offensive, but I think you seem to be in a bad mood recently..."
He swallowed and said carefully,
"I think you might feel better if you talk to a counselor or something."
