Fu Hengyi paused and spoke slowly, “Why did you ask so suddenly?”
Shen Qinglan said quietly, “I remembered a lot of things from my childhood today. In fact, I was very close to my mother when I was a child, and she was very good to me. Fortunately for me, she kept all the photos of me as a child, even the toys I played with. They were all well preserved.”
“I’ve been thinking today, if I got closer to her after I came back, would the result be different?”
Her voice was slightly low, and it could be heard that her mood was not very high, and she was very good at hiding her emotions from everyone, but facing him, she rarely hid her true emotions.
Feeling her low mood, Fu Hengyi freed up a hand, held hers, and spoke softly, “Qinglan, this matter is not unilateral. We don’t know what you went through during the time you left, but what is certain is that you must have experienced more than we can imagine.”
Shen Qinglan suddenly raised her eyes and looked at Fu Hengyi, “Fu Hengyi, do you want to know my past?”
Fu Hengyi took a serious look at Shen Qinglan’s eyes and gently shook his head in a no.
“Aren’t you curious?”
“Curious, but not now.” He thought that Shen Qinglan was not ready to tell him now. He could wait, even if she didn’t tell him for the rest of his life, as long as she would always be by his side, it didn’t matter to Fu Hengyi whether he knew about her past or not.
Shen Qinglan smiled slightly and stopped talking.
In a foreign manor, a feminine-looking man was sitting in a wheelchair looking at the blooming flowers in the garden, while holding a glass of red wine in his hand. Peter pushed the door in and saw him drinking again, so frowning, he said, “Alan, how many times have I said that drinking alcohol is detrimental to your recovery from injuries? If you want to stand up quickly, then quit drinking.”
Alan ignored the man’s words and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp before speaking. His voice was hoarse and unpleasant, like the sound of saw teeth pulling on metal, “Peter, your mission is to heal my leg. Instead of talking about these useless nonsense here.”
Peter frowned, having a headache. What a doctor was most afraid of was meeting a patient like Alan who was completely disobedient.
“If you continue to be uncooperative, I can’t guarantee when you will recover. Don’t look at me.”
Seeing Alan staring at him, Peter shrugged indifferently, “It’s useless even if you point a gun at me, oh, or you can kill me directly, and then go to another doctor to see if he can heal your leg.”
Alan looked at him sinisterly, “You think I don’t dare?”
“There are other doctors in this world. What do you think Alan doesn’t dare to do?”
Peter smiled. He had been with Alan for a long time and was not afraid of the man in front of him at all. What’s more, there were not many people in the world who could cure Alan, and he was one of the only ones.
“Three months. Three months at the latest, I want to stand up.” Alan held out three fingers.
“Alan, you dream faster. In your current situation, it would be a miracle if I could make you stand up within a year. Do you think I am really a God?”
Alan snorted coldly, “If I can’t stand up in three months, I will send you to God, Peter, don’t think I’m kidding you.”
Peter’s face darkened and he looked at Alan, “Are you serious?”
“Otherwise what do you think?”
“Okay, I got it. A new drug I recently researched can indeed speed up your recovery, but the sequelae and side effects are very serious, and the process is more painful than it is now. Do you want to try it?”
“Can I heal within three months by taking this drug?”
Peter thought for a while, made some mental calculations, and nodded, “Yes, I can let you stand up.”
“Okay.” No matter what the cost, as long as he could stand up as soon as possible, he was willing.
“Then I will give you this medicine starting from tomorrow.”
“Starting from today, I don’t want to wait a day anymore.”
Peter frowned and looked at Alan in confusion, “Alan, what are you so worried about? I haven’t seen you in a hurry for many years, why are you so anxious now? What do you want to do?”
Alan’s face changed, and he looked at Peter with a gloomy look in his eyes, “This is not something you should care about.”
Peter shrugged, okay, just don’t care. No matter, he didn’t really want to know. Not bothering to pay attention to this psychotic man, Peter left directly. He had to make some preparations.
Alan looked at the flowery garden outside the window, with a strange tenderness flashing in his eyes, Xiao Qi, you are so disobedient that you actually married another man, how do you think I should punish you?
He glanced at his legs, and a cruel smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Have you forgotten me after so many years?
“Master, I’m back.” A young woman walked in from the door and gently called the man in the wheelchair in a respectful tone.
Alan turned around and looked at her. If Shen Qinglan were here, he would definitely recognize that this woman was the one who pretended to be Leng Qingqiu.
“Xiao Xiu, do you know what to do if things go wrong?” Alan said gloomily, with a cold and indifferent tone.
Xiao Xiu trembled and said, “I know.”
“Since you know, go ahead.”
“Yes.”
Before Xiao Xiu walked out of the room, Alan said, “Don’t do things you shouldn’t do on your own without my instructions. Otherwise…”
“Yes.” Xiao Xiu responded and respectfully stepped out. But before leaving, her eyes stayed on Alan for a moment, and in her eyes was a deep attachment.
Alan retracted his gaze and continued to look out the window, his face gloomy, without a trace of smile.
Shen Xitong met Shen Qinglan and Fu Hengyi in the hospital. After calming down from the initial embarrassment and anger, she began to think about why they were here. Shen Qinglan didn’t look like she knew she lived here.
“Xitong, where were you just now? Mom has been looking for you for a long time.” Tian Cuifang came up to her with an anxious look. People who didn’t know would think she really cared about her daughter. In fact, she was just afraid that Shen Xitong would run away secretly, and then the house would be gone.
Shen Xitong looked at her indifferently, “You don’t have to look at me like a suspect. What you do will only make me more disgusted.”
Tian Cuifang’s old face froze, her thoughts were exposed, her face was full of embarrassment, Shen Xitong was smiling coldly, “I know what you want. I can tell you the truth. This house belongs to the Shen family, not me. The house is not in my name. They just lent it to us.”
“What? This big house doesn’t belong to you?” Li Yong, who was sitting there silently, jumped up instantly when he heard these words.
“This house is worth at least 20 million in the capital. Do you think the Shen family will give it to me?” Shen Xitong looked at Li Yong as if he were an idiot.
“Aren’t you the eldest lady of the Shen family? The Shen family has raised you for so many years, but they didn’t even give you a house? Why are you so useless!” Li Yong was so frustrated since he regarded this house as his own. Yes, he even took photos to show to his girlfriend, and even posted several of them on his WeChat Moments.
But now he was told that this house belonged to the Shen family, not Shen Xitong, so what did this house have to do with him?
No matter how stupid he was, he knew that the Shen family was not someone he could afford to mess with, and Shen Xitong had done such outrageous things to the missing young lady of the Shen family before.
“Li Yong, stop making sarcastic remarks to me. I’m useless. At least I can make money to support myself, and you are just a moth.” Shen Xitong said with disgust.
When Li Yong was angry, he was about to beat Shen Xitong, but the moment he raised his fist, he rolled his eyes and said, “Since you didn’t buy a house, you should still have the money you earned before. Use it to buy yourself a house.”
“I didn’t make money, my partners have been calling me these days, saying that they want to terminate the contract with me. Don’t you know? Not only can I not get the money, but I also have to pay them a large amount of compensation. When you said this, I remembered it. Now that you have recognized me, you are my family, shouldn’t you help me pay back the money?”
When it came to paying back the money, Tian Cuifang and Li Yong’s expressions changed, and Li Yong’s eyes widened, “That’s right. Why do you want me to pay back the money you owe? I have no money.” He pulled Tian Cuifang and started to leave.
Tian Cuifang left with her son, and before leaving, she did not forget to shout to Shen Xitong, “Well, Xitong, you have a good rest. Mom will make soup for you when she gets home.”
Shen Xitong sneered, you see, this was her family, selfish, indifferent and cold-blooded.
