Lin Changli raised an eyebrow: "I asked her if I could kiss other places after kissing her feet, but she didn't answer. What a pity!"

"Damn it! You two just met, it's practically your first time meeting. Are you out of your mind because of lust? What's the difference between this and sexual harassment?"

"Could it be that Miss has been angered by you, and that Yu Wei, who knows you, has been implicated as well?" Si Yu analyzed.

Qi Yunshen flipped through the data sent to his computer: "Nie Kongsang hasn't left the house recently, so we can't rule out that as a reason. Weiwei, try calling again. If that doesn't work, we'll try another method."

Yu Wei picked up the phone Kong Sang had left behind and dialed it again. To her surprise, a somewhat hoarse female voice answered: "Yu Wei."

"Miss Nie, you're sick. Why does your voice sound so..."

"Excuse me, I'm not feeling well. Is everything done?"

Yu Wei tentatively asked, "Fang Yuan has been released, but he's been through some things... his emotions are extremely unstable. Do you want to see him?"

"Okay, you can make the arrangements tomorrow. Just send me the address."

Seeing that Nie Kongsang wanted to end the call, Yu Wei immediately softened her voice: "Are you feeling unwell? I was just asking out of concern. If you feel offended, then I'm sorry."

There was a pause on the other end before someone said, somewhat puzzled, "You care about me... that's so gentle, it doesn't suit your temperament at all."

"I can't eat, I have phantom pain, and I have no energy. What should I do?"

Yu Wei frowned: "Where is the Nie family's doctor?"

"They can't cure me, Yu Wei... Can you cook? Can I come to your house tomorrow?"

"You want to eat what I make? It might not be very good."

"It's okay, I can eat it. Do you have any good friends? You can invite them to come along. I won't lose my temper. I just want to see... how you, who were born on the same day, month, and year as me, live."

After hanging up the phone, Yu Wei felt a pang of sadness and an indescribable tightness in her chest.

Nie Kongsang undoubtedly gives everyone the impression of a proud and noble woman, someone everyone envies.

But after only a short time getting to know her, this girl... wasn't like that at all; she always gave off a broken feeling...

Especially since Nie Kongsang was associated with her identity, it was hard for her not to pay attention to him.

“There are three explanations for phantom pain. One is that the mental state is very unstable, which can lead to neurotic phantom pain.”

"Secondly, the body has indeed suffered great harm, leaving behind traumatic hallucinations."

"Three...the first two are both." Qi Yunshen shut down the computer, took off his gold-rimmed glasses, and politely wiped them as he explained.

"I don't recommend that Weiwei contact Nie Kongsang again. No matter what the answer is, this girl has a lot of problems."

"Weiwei, no matter what you've been through, you're always the first to soften your heart. With prolonged contact, the chances of you developing empathy for her are too high. Once you regain your status as the Nie family's daughter, how will you face her?"

Yu Wei closed her eyes briefly: "Compared to the rest of the Nie family, Nie Kongsang is the easiest weak point for us to exploit."

“I will not forget why we came back. If she has lost her humanity like the Nie family, I will kill her without hesitation.”

"But if she... still retains a touch of pure white even in hell, I will not abandon her."

Yu Wei finished speaking, got up and left; she needed some peace and quiet.

Qi Yun Shen put his glasses back on and sighed: "The scenario I predicted has come true. Wei Wei inevitably pays too much attention to people who are using her identity. Between the two extremes of disgust and pity, she clearly leans towards the latter."

Si Yu chuckled and said, "Don't worry so much. You'll know whether it's a person or a ghost once you meet them yourself. Yu Wei's good friend... isn't that us?"

Qi Yunshen was taken aback for a moment, while Lin Changli smiled and said, "A very good suggestion."

White short-sleeved T-shirt, light blue slim-fit jeans, white canvas shoes, and a bear-shaped crossbody backpack.

Nie Kongsang's outfit left Yu Wei stunned for several seconds.

Coming to her senses, she quickly went to greet her: "Miss Nie..."

"Don't be so formal. You can call me by my name or Kongsang. Did I dress up especially for the occasion of meeting your friend today?"

The girl, whose complexion wasn't very good, circled around in front of her. Although the stunning beauty of her face was still undeniable, her demeanor was noticeably more approachable.

Yu Wei's expression turned complicated for a moment, but she quickly concealed it and said with a smile, "It's very beautiful. My house is not big, so it's a pity that Kongsang is not big enough."

Looking at the lights in each apartment in front of me, I felt a different kind of warmth and life compared to the Nie family in Huaishan.

Nie Kongsang shook his head: "I don't feel wronged, I like it very much."

She took Yu Wei's hand and walked towards the door, eager to see Yu Wei's friend.

"Click"

The door was pushed open, and three pairs of eyes fell on Nie Kongsang, all with surprise at her attire...

Kong Sang was also taken aback for a moment, but then changed her shoes and entered the room with a normal expression: "All that preparation was for nothing. Yu Wei is amazing. With this circle of friends, she can walk sideways in Kyoto."

Seeing that the person wasn't angry, Yu Wei felt a sense of relief: "Making friends doesn't depend on status. I didn't think that much about it. What would you like to drink?"

"Sweet soup, please!"

Yu Wei paused for a moment, then went to the kitchen.

The room wasn't small, probably over 100 square meters, enough for one person, but for the Nie family, it was undoubtedly a humble dwelling.

The three men, each with their own distinct posture, watched as the girl, whose beauty was undeniable even in simple attire, approached. They politely greeted her, saying, "Hello, I am Nie Kongsang."

Si Yu spoke first, laughing nonchalantly, "Who doesn't know Miss Nie? No need for introductions."

"Yes, it's just polite language. Don't take it seriously, Mr. Si. If I see you somewhere else, you won't hear me saying that."

"Oh, you mean you wouldn't bother getting to know me if I weren't Yu Wei's friend?"

Kongsang clapped his hands: "What a clever mind!"

Si Yu revealed a roguish air: "Pretty arrogant, huh?"

"Thank you for the compliment. I know you're angry, but I'm the eldest daughter of the Nie family, and I'm a girl. If you can't vent your anger, you can go and cause trouble for the Nie family. Anyway, they're used to me causing trouble."

Qi Yunshen looked into Nie Kongsang's eyes: "Knowing it's causing trouble, you still did it. Do you hate the Nie family?"

"What are you saying? Why would I hate my own family? Does Mr. Qi know that his thought process is so bizarre?"

"The Nie family is so powerful. As their only daughter, can't I squander some of my wealth? I'm just a spoiled girl who can be willful."

Lin Changli clapped his hands, just like Kong Sang: "Miss Nie offended two powerful figures in two minutes, you're really something!"

"Huh? Isn't this President Lin, who can't take his eyes off my feet? I forgot to ask last time, do you have a foot fetish?"

"Pfft!" Si Yu couldn't help but burst out laughing: "How could Nie Jingxing let you go out like that? Aren't you afraid of offending everyone in the capital?"

Just hearing her name made Kong Sang feel pain in her body. For seven consecutive nights, she went to her room to stare at her, afraid that her older brother would lose control and beat her again.

The unbearable memories returned, his expression changed slightly, and his body tilted and fell.

Lin Changli's eyes darkened, and he reached out to catch the person and pull him into his arms.

Without thinking too much, she lay on Lin Changli's lap, grabbed the man's suit sleeve, pointed to her teddy bear backpack, and said with difficulty, "Medicine."
