Chapter 86: Chapter 86 Going to the Hospital to Pick Up Grandma
The sky brightened. After a night of rolling thunder and lightning, rain finally began to fall.
It swept away the oppressive heat of the past few days.
Yun Kuang came to the front hall, feeling the rare cool breeze, and stretched lazily.
Suddenly, the phone rang.
Seeing the caller ID, his brows furrowed.
It was Yun Ying.
With a complex feeling, he answered the call.
In the moment before answering, he thought to himself:
If only you would proactively mention it, apologize, or even show a little concern for your brother, I would forgive you.
"Brother, is there really no way to get that talisman back? It’s such a waste; it should have been used on Yun Qi..."
As soon as the call connected, Yun Ying began talking non-stop on the other end, her tone full of regret.
Listening to the familiar voice, Yun Kuang’s heart felt cold.
The sister now seemed so unfamiliar, as if she had become a different person.
She wasn’t like this before.
The proud "Little Heavenly Girl" of Hai City, smart and kind, was a model for many Xuan Sect disciples.
But now, it seemed like something had clouded her mind, all she cared about was taking revenge on Yun Qi.
"Brother, are you listening to me? Can you focus a bit and be serious about something? Last time you lost the talisman in a fight, and this time I’ve been talking for ages without any response from you. If you would just..."
"Enough!" Yun Kuang suddenly shouted.
On the other end, Yun Ying was startled, a bad feeling rising in her heart.
"Yun Ying, have you ever worried about your brother? The talisman was picked up by Xu Leisong, and you’ve never worried about what might happen to him? If something happens to us because of you, could you really be at ease?"
Yun Ying opened her mouth. She said in a deep voice, "I didn’t intend to harm him, and if something happens to him, it’s his destined fate, what does it have to do with me? And brother, if you stayed at home, that talisman wouldn’t harm you."
Yun Kuang let out a cold laugh, unable to speak for a long while.
He remained silent, as did Yun Ying.
The siblings’ breathing was transmitted through the line, like a silent struggle.
Finally, Yun Kuang’s tone softened.
"I’m done talking to you. I hope you find peace on the mountain, I need to visit Grandma in the hospital today."
After hanging up the phone, Yun Qiuce hooked his arm around Yun Kuang’s neck.
"Kid, be honest with uncle, what happened the other day? You were out all night, and the next day you came back with Little Qi. Since when did you two become so close?"
Yun Kuang chuckled bitterly.
"Uncle, Little Qi and I have always been close, right?"
Yun Qi was sharing seaweed with the little puppy, one piece each. Hearing this, she looked up, eyes wide and innocent: "Huh?"
The Old Master came over, took Yun Qi’s hand, and wiped away the sesame seeds sticking to her mouth with a smile.
"Let’s go, we’re going to the hospital to pick up Grandma. Is Little Qi happy?"
"Happy."
A sweet voice chimed, filling the air with a milky fragrance.
Yun Kuang scratched his head, wondering if this sweet and obedient little dumpling was the same person who fiercely fought the Earthborn Fetus underground a few days ago?
Is Little Qi splitting, or am I splitting?
He hesitated for only a second before arriving at a conclusion.
It must be me who’s splitting.
Little Qi couldn’t have any problem.
At the hospital, the nurse had already packed the Old Lady’s belongings.
"In the past, it took at least a month to recover, but this time her condition improved so much during her stay that even we’re surprised," shared the doctor with a cheer.
The Old Master laughed, "That’s good. Old Lady, you can go home now. Are you happy?"
The Old Lady nodded and smiled, motioning for Yun Kuang.
"My eldest grandson is back."
"Grandma." Yun Kuang obediently approached her, allowing her to ruffle his messy hair.
"There’s also Little Qi."
Yun Kuang brought Yun Qi over, her small hand in his large one, feeling utterly satisfied.
"Good, good. It’s just a discharge, not necessary for so many people."
The Old Lady’s expression was strange as she looked at Yun Qi, reaching out as if to pat her head, but then only touched her hairband with her fingertips as if she remembered something.
Nobody noticed her odd behavior, except for Yun Qi, who blinked her eyes.
Walking out of the hospital, Yun Qiuce thought it was his turn to hold the little dumpling since Yun Kuang had been holding her all the time.
He acted immediately.
Yun Kuang tightened his grip, "Hey, Uncle, what are you doing? Why not carry Grandma’s luggage?"
"You little rascal, ordering me around. You’re the one who should carry the luggage, go and work for it!"
Yun Qiuce asserted his authoritativeness as an uncle, successfully gaining the opportunity to hold the little dumpling’s hand.
The Old Lady and the Old Master walked side by side, and upon hearing, turned their heads for a look.
"Well, Qiuce, you..."
"What’s up, Mom?"
Yun Qiuce found holding hands inconvenient, so he picked up the person and looked at the Old Lady.
"Nothing," she said with an awkward smile, wrestling with her emotions.
Before leaving the hospital, she received a call from Yun Ying, who said she’d had a row with Yun Kuang.
Yun Kuang had always been a good brother and liked Yun Ying the most.
In fact, everyone in the house liked Yun Ying because before Yun Qi came back, she was the only girl at home.
How could they be fighting?
The grandmother’s heart felt clogged.
Yun Ying’s words echoed in her ears:
"Brother has been unlucky since he returned home, and I just advised him, and suddenly he got angry."
It seemed unrelated to Yun Qi, but Yun Qi had also just returned home not long ago.
Why did Yun Kuang, who always had a good temper, become irritable only after Yun Qi returned?
Back at the Yun Family.
The Old Master wanted to celebrate the Old Lady’s return.
The Old Lady reacted indifferently, seemingly preoccupied, unable to be happy.
"What celebration, it’s all family. I’ve lived so long, and my only wish now is for the family to be safe and healthy," the Old Lady said, her eyes glancing at Yun Qi.
She finally used the excuse of not feeling well to return to her room to rest.
The Old Master and Yun Qiuce ate in the living room.
Yun Qi sat on a high stool, swinging her legs.
Yun Kuang quietly placed a chicken drumstick into her plate.
Yun Qi’s eyes lit up, her small mouth stuffed full.
"Meat, Little Qi likes eating meat!"
Yun Kuang kept his expression neutral but felt proud inside.
Mentally taking note, Little Qi likes to eat chicken drumsticks!
In the bedroom.
The Old Lady tossed and turned, unable to sleep, sat up, thought for a long time, and took out her phone to dial a number she hadn’t called in ages.
"Hello, Shen Cong, remember my granddaughter Yun Qi? Years ago, you helped her with a reading, saying she was the reincarnation of an Evil Star, blessing herself and harming close ones!"
Shen Cong squinted his eyes.
"Yun Qi? She should be five years old now, right?"
"Yes. Do you still remember her?"
Shen Cong looked at the photo in his hand, which showed the terrifying state of his junior disciple Tang Qing’s death.
The whole body was charred black from being struck by lightning, clothes tattered, and purple marks were left all over his body.
After being struck by lightning, he fell from a high building, his body shattered beyond recognition.
"How could I forget her? I remember her too well," Shen Cong spoke each word heavily, deliberately.
