“Second brother, are you a monster?” Ru Feng suddenly spoke, causing Qi Feng’s hand to stop.
Ru Feng then cupped his face, looking admiring. “Who’s ordinary enough to know everything like you?”
Qi Feng’s heart slowly relaxed. “Silly girl!”
“Honestly, is there anything in this world you don’t know?” she continued. “Perfection is the most annoying, like not letting others live.”
Qi Feng ignored her, letting her lament. There were many things he didn’t understand, but he cared about only one: why couldn’t he be the lover she hoped for?
He would always seek answers to what he didn’t understand, but this one, perhaps he would never resolve, as he couldn’t bear to ask the one who could answer.
“Don’t just sit there, write down the method of cultivating rouge grass,” he said.
Ru Feng found paper and pen. “You speak, I’ll write. By the way, this rouge grass takes a year to grow. Are you really patient enough to check every day?”
“Hmm!” Qi Feng responded softly. He came to see the rouge grass every time he thought of her.
Dinner, which should have been a harmonious family moment, was interrupted when Ying Feng’s face changed after a phone call. “Sui Feng is in critical condition at the hospital. I’m going right now.”
Situ Jin put down his bowl and quickly stood up. “Wait, I’ll go with you.”
What was that child doing, getting into trouble right after getting married?
Only Qi Feng remained calm, patting Ru Feng’s tense body. “Don’t worry, that’s an outsider.”
Ru Feng sat for a long time before looking at him, almost crying. “Brother?”
Qi Feng adjusted his posture slightly. Sui Feng’s wife dying would be best, but seeing Ru Feng’s expression, he could only reluctantly comfort her. “It’s okay, Dad and big brother have gone.”
Ru Feng’s fingertips were icy cold, remembering what Ning Yuan had said recently, her heart full of panic.
“Second brother, shall we go to the hospital?”
Qi Feng shook his head. “I’m not going, and I won’t let you go. Besides, I don’t think that woman wants to see you.”
Ru Feng had already taken his hand. “Sister Sui Feng won’t know it’s me. Let’s go see, okay?”
