Chapter 259: Chapter 256: Qin Zhao Discovers Chu Yan is Pretending

Even if the Xu Family were bad, they wouldn’t brazenly abduct someone and almost beat him to death! Deep down, he felt that if he didn’t speak, this man might actually kill him!

"Xu Xingwen?"

Chu Yan let out a cold laugh.

He probably knew why Xu Xingwen would do such a thing.

Chu Yan looked coldly at Ye Mengjie and took a few steps toward him.

His cold, slender fingers suddenly pinched Ye Mengjie’s chin, lifting his face, swollen like a pig’s head.

Chu Yan’s lips curved with a faint smile, but the smile didn’t reach his eyes, "See clearly who I am. If you try to scam Qin Zhao again, next time I’ll invite you and your family here for a visit, hmm?"

Ye Mengjie’s eyes were swollen too, and blood flowed down, obscuring his vision. He struggled to open his eyes and finally made out Chu Yan’s face, but he couldn’t recall his identity.

Chu Yan released his hand, and Ye Mengjie’s head tilted down as he passed out.

He pulled off his boxing gloves and ordered the others, "Take him to the hospital."

Qi Ling couldn’t help but roll his eyes, "Chu Yan, your idea of being a good person is to send him to the hospital after beating him?" instead of just throwing him into the river.

Chu Yan glanced at him, "You have a problem with that?"

"What problem could I have?"

Qi Ling laughed sarcastically, thinking that from now on everyone would be sent to the hospital, and specifically to Chu Yan’s hospital! From then on, turn over a new leaf and be a good person!

After dealing with the aftermath, Chu Yan went to bathe and freshen up.

Later, he called Qi Ling over to help bandage his left arm.

"You’re not injured here, what are you bandaging up for?"

"Just wrap it up, what do you know?"

"Alright, I don’t understand, you tell me."

Qi Ling was curious, who was he trying to deceive by pretending to be sick?

Chu Yan explained seriously, "If my hand is wounded, someone will feed me, help me change my clothes, even help me bathe. At night, they won’t kick me and I can hold them while sleeping."

Qi Ling responded, "Wow, your housekeeper is quite capable."

"My wife! What housekeeper!"

Chu Yan kicked him, causing him pain and making him grimace.

"..." Alright, alright, you’re amazing because you have a wife, okay? When he has a partner in the future, he’ll do the same!

After Qi Ling finished bandaging him, he also had to drive him home.

Just as they arrived at the entrance of the residential area, Chu Yan alighted from the car and saw Qin Zhao returning.

Qin Zhao had gone to Imperial University today to tell them her family had a patient, and she would be few days late going to Hanxi, then she also caught up on the Three Evil Formation situation with Shangguan Jing.

The principal and Shangguan Jing both said it was okay, and told her to take care of the patient first.

"Your hand is injured, why are you running around?"

Qin Zhao came over to him.

"A friend needed me."

"Why is your hair wet?"

He had just showered at the gym and forgot to dry his hair. On the way back, he didn’t open the convertible top, so Chu Yan’s hair was still damp.

"I went to get my hair fixed, but I wanted to come back early to have dinner with you, so I didn’t let the hairstylist dry it."

"Are you silly? Couldn’t you have just sent me a message? You’re a doctor, don’t you know that leaving your hair wet for a long time can easily cause headaches?"

Qi Ling sat in the sports car, listening to Qin Zhao’s nagging.

He suddenly understood why Chu Yan liked Qin Zhao. Because she nagged him, she cared for him. And that care was something unreachable yet deeply craved by people like them.

Qi Ling lowered his eyelids and let out a self-mocking laugh before driving away.

Upstairs in the apartment, Qin Zhao ordered takeout as soon as she got home, but they had tried all the takeout options in the past few days and really couldn’t find anything appetizing anymore.

"Ah, when will your hand get better?"

She really missed the days when Chu Yan cooked.

"Should we go out to eat?"

He didn’t want to get better in a short time.

"Let’s buy some groceries and cook ourselves."

Qin Zhao knew how to cook, and it wasn’t bad.

After cooking dinner, she still had to feed Chu Yan, which really exhausted her.

"It’s so hot, help me blow on it."

The man who had just beaten Ye Mengjie half to death was now telling Qin Zhao that the dinner was too hot and needed her to blow on it. If she refused, he would just stare at her pitifully.

Qin Zhao blew on the pork rib soup for him, insisting he drink three large bowls.

Because she wanted Chu Yan’s hand to heal quickly so she could go on a distant trip.

While cleaning up the dishes, Qin Zhao accidentally broke a bowl. Her mind was on the Three Evil Formation, and she almost stepped on the ceramic pieces.

Fortunately, Chu Yan was standing next to her and quickly pulled her to his side.

"What are you thinking about?"

He said unhappily, terrified inside.

Had he not been vigilant just now, she would have really stepped on the shards.

Wouldn’t that hurt terribly?

Qin Zhao said nothing, staring blankly at her waist where Chu Yan’s left hand was firmly placed, feeling strong — she couldn’t easily struggle free.

"Chu Yan!" She gritted her teeth, "Is your hand healed?!"

Chu Yan’s expression stiffened, and he quickly hissed.

"And here I was, using my injured hand to hold you, already in so much pain!"

"Oh, pretending again?"

Qin Zhao grabbed his left hand, and her spiritual power probed down his wrist.

His bones had long healed, not only that, there wasn’t even a scar on the skin!

Great! This jerk was really well!

Qin Zhao’s expression grew uglier, and Chu Yan became more and more guilty.

"Zhaozhao, listen to my explanation."

"I’m not listening!" Qin Zhao fiercely pushed him away, pointing at the dishes on the table, "Your hand is healed and you still won’t wash the dishes? Go wash them! What are you staring at!"

The more she thought, the angrier she got, "And you had me feed you! Who do you think you are, the Emperor? Damn it!"

Chu Yan heard her cursing as she walked toward the room, not daring to approach her anger, he could only silently start cleaning the dishes, then the kitchen, and then tidying the house.

Every now and then, he glanced at the room.

Not long after, Qin Zhao came out in different clothes.

She looked like she was going out, and Chu Yan quickly asked, "Where are you going?"

"None of your business!"

Qin Zhao glared back at him, and Chu Yan instantly fell silent, only able to watch helplessly as she left.

She first stayed overnight at Su Xiaotong’s house, then notified Shangguan Jing and the others. She told them everything was settled at home and they could leave for Hanxi anytime.

The dean and Shangguan Jing were eager to resolve the Three Evil Formation, so they decided to leave tomorrow!

Chu Yan sent Qin Zhao many messages and made lots of calls, but Qin Zhao deleted him from WeChat and blocked his number.

Thinking about taking care of Chu Yan these past few days made her even more annoyed.

She wished she could stay out longer and didn’t want to see that jerk at all!

The group arrived in the provincial city of Hanxi, rented a private car driven by the dean, and headed to his ancestral home. They settled their luggage in the ancestral house and immediately went to the ancestral graveyard.
