Chapter 1238: Chi Shuyan Sees Things Clearly
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Unlike yesterday, Chi Shuyan was very calm now. No matter how the other party goaded her, she just treated this Qin person as if she were invisible. She ignored her livid and unsightly face and left.
Whether it was that woman, Zhuang Yanru, or this Qin woman, Chi Shuyan didn’t have time to play along. She felt that instead of being jealous of other women, it was more useful to focus on cultivating or refining pills.
As for the Qin woman trying to use Qi Zhenbai’s relations.h.i.+p with another woman to attack Chi Shuyan, it could only be said that she was thinking too much and was wrong. The problem between them had never been about anyone else, but themselves.
Moreover, after spending so much time together, she knew Qi Zhenbai’s character and could guarantee that he didn’t do things half-heartedly. If he really was with that Zhuang woman, he definitely wouldn’t string Chi Shuyan along.
Even when she saw with her own eyes how that woman took the initiative to flirt with Qi Zhenbai, Chi Shuyan truly didn’t think that the two of them were having an affair once she calmed down. She just felt that Qi Zhenbai probably had an ulterior motive.
!!
Although she could understand that, that didn’t mean she could forgive him. The way the man hadn’t responded but hadn’t rejected the other party either had seriously crossed Chi Shuyan’s bottom line. However, it wasn’t like he needed her forgiveness now.
Chi Shuyan sighed. If she had known that relations.h.i.+ps would be so tiring and there were so many things to consider, she would have listened to her teacher and done her best not to get into a relations.h.i.+p. She would have worked hard to cultivate and attain a bright future.
But it wasn’t too late to fix that now.
Chi Shuyan was in a good mood. Not long after, she threw the matter of Zhuang Yanru and Qi Zhenbai to the back of her mind. As she walked toward Imperial Restaurant, she didn’t forget to call Brother Feng.
As soon as the call connected, Chi Shuyan didn’t beat around the bush and asked directly, “Brother Feng, you haven’t been in contact with Miss Qin recently, right?”
Feng Yuanlin had been busy these days and hadn’t gone home, so he hadn’t been subjected to his mother nagging him about marrying Qin Qing. He was a bit stumped when Shuyan suddenly mentioned that name after so long, but he quickly reacted. “No! What’s wrong, Shuyan?”
Chi Shuyan said, “It’s good that you’re not. I’m just calling to advise you. If you really want to fall in love or get married, don’t think about marrying that Qin woman!”
Qin Qing was the source of Brother Feng’s pain and death. Whoever married such a scourge would be unlucky!
Chi Shuyan’s mouth wasn’t usually poisonous, but her feelings about Qin Qing were very profound. Thinking of how that Qin woman had caused Brother Feng to meet such a tragic end in her previous life, Chi Shuyan felt that it was necessary to occasionally warn Brother Feng about Qin Qing.
Moreover, her eyelid twitched every time she thought about Brother Feng and Qin Qing’s strange offspring luck.
Feng Yuanlin didn’t know about this offspring luck. He now saw Qin Qing for who she really was and couldn’t wait to get away from her. There was no way he would take the initiative to approach her. He thought for a moment. For Shuyan to suddenly bring up Qin Qing, could it be that she had gone looking for Shuyan?
Feng Yuanlin couldn’t help but ask.
Chi Shuyan didn’t hide it. “Mm, she came earlier. She was with Qi Zhenbai’s fiancée, and said that the woman wanted to meet me. But I ignored her!”
Feng Yuanlin had just gone to get a cup of water and had taken a sip, when he heard Shuyan say “Zhenbai’s fiancée.” Feng Yuanlin was so shocked that he couldn’t help but spit out the water. His eyes widened in disbelief, thinking that he had heard wrongly. After a while, he realized that he hadn’t heard wrongly, and he choked. “Shu… Shuyan, what Zhenbai’s fiancée? Aren’t you Zhenbai’s fiancée?”
Without waiting for Chi Shuyan to speak, Feng Yuanlin quickly found his voice and said, “Shuyan, did you have a conflict with Zhenbai?”
Chi Shuyan thought to herself that it wasn’t a conflict, but the breakup was back on track. She didn’t want to talk about relations.h.i.+ps anymore. Chi Shuyan didn’t tell Brother Feng about the breakup, and only said, “Brother Feng, don’t worry about me. Just worry about yourself. If that woman, Qin Qing, looks for you, don’t forget to let me know.”
Feng Yuanlin’s mind was filled with Shuyan’s words. At the thought that Zhenbai might have switched fiancées, Feng Yuanlin couldn’t calm down for a moment. He felt that it was unlikely. He knew Zhenbai’s feelings for Shuyan; how could he marry another woman?
Feng Yuanlin thought for a moment and suddenly said, “Shuyan, I’m free now. Why don’t I go over and we can have lunch together?”
Chi Shuyan was amused by Brother Feng’s concerned and cautious tone. Yesterday, she might have needed someone to comfort her, but she had already thought things through. She deliberately teased, “Brother Feng, I’m starving right now, but I can’t wait for you. Let’s have a meal together when we have time in the future. As for me and Qi Zhenbai, don’t think too much. We’re both adults, and the two of us can resolve it. Besides, Brother Feng, you should know what kind of person I am.”
Feng Yuanlin didn’t know that the two of them had broken up, but he heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. That was true. Shuyan wasn’t some difficult woman who only knew how to be jealous. Zhenbai should also absolutely be reluctant to see Shuyan suffer. Since Shuyan and Zhenbai could resolve it privately, he wouldn’t interfere. After all, it was taboo for others to get involved in someone else’s private affairs. It wouldn’t be good to make things more complicated.
However, Feng Yuanlin still spoke up for his friend. “Shuyan, don’t worry. The matter of Zhenbai’s fiancée definitely can’t be true. Zhenbai wouldn’t betray you and fall in love with another woman. I firmly believe that.”
He truly felt that Zhenbai had been wrapped around Shuyan’s finger ever since he met her. He had never seen Zhenbai, who had always been cold-blooded and heartless, like someone so much.
Chi Shuyan didn’t continue talking about her and Qi Zhenbai, and only said, “I’ll treat you to a big meal in a few days, Brother Feng! I’m hanging up first. By the way, I’ll say the same thing again: Stay as far away from Qin Qing as possible!”
“Okay! Don’t worry, Shuyan!”
