Chapter 53: Zhou Fengyun vs. Ji Qinian – The First Showdown…

When Zhou Fengyun saw the message, he was stunned for a long time.

In which direction are we trying to extend this question?

This is somewhat beyond the scope of his knowledge and common sense.

So he searched online for the question: What does it mean if someone asks you if your tongue is flexible?

The AI ​​was the first to answer him.

This is likely a suggestive, teasing, or even offensive metaphor.

Suggestive: It's possible the other person enjoys interacting with your tongue and wants to know how flexible it is.

Teasing: The other person is just teasing you, saying that you don't clearly distinguish between retroflex and alveolar consonants when you speak.

Offense: In addition to the teasing meaning mentioned above, if the other person has had intimate contact with you, it may be an implication that you are not good at oral sex.

Zhou Fengyun: "..."

Is that what he meant?

＊

After sending the message, Yu Qing tossed his phone aside and went back to sleep.

He suddenly woke up after an unknown amount of time.

I quickly grabbed my phone and saw what strange question he had asked.

I wanted to retract it, but found that I couldn't.

Hopefully, Zhou Fengyun didn't see this.

In his panic, Yu Qing had a sudden inspiration and frantically sent him emojis.

Take over his chat history!

After sending emojis for ten minutes straight, surely no one will bother to scroll through hundreds of comments in the chat history?

Relieved, Yu Qing put his phone aside and went back to sleep.

I had a lot of dreams that night and couldn't sleep well at all.

I woke up from my nap and it was already noon.

The little monster stood at the head of the bed looking at him with a resentful expression.

We agreed to go to the amusement park today.

"Going in the afternoon is the same, the amusement park isn't that big," Yu Qing said, having had enough sleep, he got up to wash up.

There are also frozen dumplings in the refrigerator.

I haven't been sleeping well at night, and I've lost my appetite.

I just boiled some dumplings; they came in a pound-sized bag, and I shared them with the little monster.

After eating and changing clothes, I stuffed the little monster into my pocket.

I grabbed two phones and a power bank and headed out.

Once inside the elevator, Yu Qingcai used his old phone to search for directions.

I looked up the route to the amusement park, and it turns out I need to transfer at one stop.

Having determined the route, Yu Qing headed straight for the subway station.

I scanned the QR code to enter the station.

Luckily, there were seats available on the subway, and he only started checking his WeChat messages after sitting down.

My old phone had a lot of messages, including many group chats from school.

The students discussed everything from everyday gossip to what they would do after graduation.

Some people have plans, and some people don't.

There were no messages I absolutely had to reply to.

He put the old phone in his pocket.

He pulled out a new phone, which only contained the names of a few people from the Special Abilities Bureau.

As soon as I opened the app, I saw a message from Zhou Fengyun.

Yu Qing's heart skipped a beat; he had almost forgotten about this.

I was still a little nervous when I opened the message.

Upon seeing the news, his heart sank completely.

Zhou Fengyun: "I'm doing quite well wherever I work."

Yu Qing turned off the screen and put his phone in his pocket.

Pretend none of this ever happened.

＊

Once we arrived at the amusement park, we bought a ticket, went inside, and started taking pictures.

The little monster whispered, "What should we do?"

Nothing Yu Qing found particularly exciting; even those flying things weren't as thrilling as his own flying machine.

But the little monster was very interested, since he couldn't fly, and he insisted on riding the roller coaster.

Yu Qing thought, "Since I'm already here, I might as well sit down."

Then I went.

I even specifically chose the front of the car; it was thrilling.

Once the roller coaster started moving, Yu Qing grabbed the little monster and placed him against his chest, letting him experience the thrilling visual impact of the front of the car.

Yu Qing remained calm throughout.

The people around them screamed their hearts out.

The little monster didn't make a sound, but it spat out the dumplings while hanging upside down in mid-air.

After leaving the roller coaster, Yu Qing asked, "Want to ride again?"

The little monster, vomiting acid, said with a pained expression, "I'm never playing again. Let's go play something that doesn't fly."

"Is that all you've got?" Yu Qing laughed.

Passing by a place that sells cotton candy, Yu Qing felt a little tempted, as he had never eaten cotton candy before.

So I went and bought a big one.

After taking a few bites, he felt it was just so-so. The little monster wanted to eat, so when no one was around, he stuffed the little monster whole into the marshmallow and made him lick it from the inside out.

"Is it tasty?"

Little Monster: "Delicious, so sweet."

The little monster was so happy that it had forgotten it was a monster.

He is simply the happiest child in the world.

＊

Yu Qing and the little monster sneaked around the amusement park for an afternoon.

Around 5 o'clock, Gu Tuo sent him a message saying that he was going to have dinner with his master and asked if he wanted him to bring him some good food.

Yu Qing replied that it wasn't necessary; he would take the little monster to play at the amusement park, and they would eat their fill outside before going back.

I was starving by 6:30.

There are restaurants in the amusement park.

Yu Qing chose to eat Western food, ordering two steaks, a pasta dish, a bowl of cheese and mushroom chicken soup, plus a few snacks.

He ordered a lot by himself.

The waiter kindly reminded him that he had ordered a bit too much, worried that he wouldn't be able to finish it and it would be a waste.

Yu Qing confidently said that he wouldn't waste any food, as he has a large appetite.

The waiter smiled and took his order.

The table looked full, but the portions were actually quite small.

He's a young man who naturally eats a lot, and now he's pregnant and has a little monster of a foodie.

These things are not enough for them to eat.

Before leaving, I bought two grilled sausages and grilled squid outside.

Zhou Fengyun didn't receive a reply all day.

When I got home around 8 o'clock, he still hadn't returned.

Unable to sit still any longer, he sent another message: "Want to come over for a late-night snack?"

Yu Qing took out his phone and glanced at it.

His cheeks were a little hot, and he replied, "No, I just finished eating."

He sent him a picture of a half-eaten sausage in his hand.

Zhou Fengyun: "Don't eat so much junk food while you're pregnant; food from outside isn't hygienic."

Yu Qing: "The current situation is good."

Zhou Fengyun: "Alright, I've already exchanged the crystals from the secret realm for cash and prepared them for you. Where's my treasure?"

Yu Qing: "I'll take it to you when I'm at work."

Zhou Fengyun: "Okay."

Yu Qing didn't reply, and Zhou Fengyun didn't send any more messages.

It was as if nothing embarrassing had ever happened.

I got home at 11 p.m.

Gu Tuo has already returned.

When she saw him come back, she pointed to the fruit on the coffee table and said, "I just bought this."

"Thank you, I'm too full." Yu Qing took the little monster, which was so full it could barely move, out of his pocket and placed it on the coffee table. "What delicious food did your master take you to eat?"

"We ate at a private restaurant, and the food was pretty good. I'll take you there when I have time. The chef also taught me some fighting techniques, which were really difficult." Gu Tuo thought it looked cool when others fought, but when he actually tried to fight, he felt weak all over. After practicing for two hours, he was so tired that everything ached.

Yu Qing had barely sat down on the sofa when he immediately got up and ran to the bathroom.

"Are you alright?" Gu Tuo asked.

"You ate too much..." Yu Qing slammed the door shut, almost forgetting to take off his pants.

Gu Tuo listened to the clattering sound and silently took out the Baoji Pills from the drawer.

Check the time; it hasn't expired yet.

Yu Qing couldn't straighten his back when he came out of the toilet.

"I hope the grilled squid isn't cooked through..."

"Make it yourself if you want to eat it in the future. I've already bought an oven. The kebabs outside might really be made from zombie meat that's been frozen for years." Gu Tuo handed him the Baoji Pill.

"Take your medicine."

Just as Yu Qing reached out to take it, Gu Tuo suddenly snatched it away, saying, "Wait a minute, let me check if pregnant men can eat this."

Gu Tuo searched online and found that pregnant women should use it with caution, so pregnant men shouldn't use it either.

"You can't eat this. Let me see what pregnant women can eat. Order some medicine for delivery."

Yu Qinggang sat down after returning, and his stomach started rumbling again.

"Ah...I really need to buy some medicine right away, I think I'm going to die..."

As he spoke, Yu Qing got up and ran to the toilet again.

The little monster touched its belly and said, "I'm the best; I don't have diarrhea."

“There’s no medicine for you if you have diarrhea,” Gu Tuo said. He bought montmorillonite powder for Yu Qing, saying that it was okay to take it online.

When he placed the order, he asked the store manager, who also gave him a probiotic.

The delivery guy brought the food to my door in fifteen minutes.

Yu Qing urinated three times in just fifteen minutes.

This chrysanthemum is even more painful than the friction I experienced in Su Yeguo's magical realm.

Because he ate spicy grilled squid.

Spicy, it really is a painful sensation!

The medicine arrived, and Yu Qing quickly prepared a packet and drank it.

Montmorillonite powder is quite effective.

You'll see noticeable results after drinking it.

Gu Tuo looked at him lying on the sofa, barely alive, looking like he was about to run to the toilet at any moment, and shook his head with a tsk-tsk sound: "Would you dare to do it again next time?"

Yu Qing has given up and can only lie on his side now.

"I will never eat spicy grilled squid again."

Thankfully, he doesn't need to wake up to have diarrhea while he's sleeping.

Although my stomach was upset, I was able to sleep until dawn.

He is still on leave.

You can rest assured and stay at home to rest during your pregnancy.

It's been over three months, and the two babies are still quite large.

His lower abdomen was no longer flat.

Yu Qing rubbed his stomach, snuggled in bed and slept in, only ordering takeout when he was starving.

I didn't dare order anything random anymore, so I just went to the steamed bun shop near the school gate, bought steamed buns and milk, ate them and went back to lying down. I was so weak.

＊

In the afternoon, Gu Tuo told Hua Qingshu that he wouldn't be going to practice that night because his roommate had diarrhea and wasn't feeling well, and he wanted to go back and take care of him.

Ji Qinian happened to pass by, and Gu Tuo's roommate was none other than A Ding.

Is he feeling unwell?

Pregnant men with diarrhea cannot take many medications.

I don't know if he's been taking any medications indiscriminately.

When it was time to leave work, Gu Tuo ran away.

Zhou Fengyun was just leaving his office when he saw Gu Tuo rushing downstairs alone. He looked at Hua Qingshu and asked, "Wasn't he supposed to receive special training? Just for one day?"

Hua Qingshu said, "His roommate has diarrhea, and he has to go back to take care of him. One more day of special training won't make a difference. I'm off work now."

Zhou Fengyun and Hua Qingshu went downstairs together.

There's nothing to do today, so they can go home and rest early.

I really hope that every day in the future will be this leisurely.

"Gu Tuo, I'm going the same way, let's go together." Ji Qinian called out to Gu Tuo.

"On the way?" Gu Tuo's eyes lit up. It would be best if it were on the way, since it was rush hour and there were no seats on the subway.

The bus is stuck in traffic again.

Gu Tuo immediately ran over.

When Ji Qinian saw Zhou Fengyun come out, he didn't say anything, opened the car door and let Gu Tuo get into the passenger seat.

He walked around the front of the car, got on, and drove away.

Zhou Fengyun must not know that A Ding is Yu Qing.

Zhou Fengyun watched the car drive away.

Hua Qingshu joked, "No way, no way, they got together? I thought Ji Qinian's target was Boss A Ding."

Zhou Fengyun's lips twitched.

＊

Zhou Fengyun was a little absent-minded on his way home.

Some answers are obvious.

Zhou Fengyun made a phone call.

The other party answered the phone quickly.

Zhou Fengyun said, "Help me check the list of everyone who entered and exited the Yue'an Hotel on the day the incident happened, including part-time waiters."

"That's easy, just wait a few minutes."

A few minutes later, Zhou Fengyun received a document.

The first thing he did when he got home was to check if there was a person named Yu Qing in the documents.

A quick search revealed the answer.

have.

Yu Qing worked part-time as a waiter at a hotel that month.

He resigned the day after the hotel incident.

The answer is obvious.

Yu Qing is A Ding.

He had missed his chance with the truth several times.

But a new problem arose. He had looked at Yu Qing's information; he didn't have a prominent family background, he was just an ordinary person.

Where did he learn his equipment, his superpowers, and all his skills?

But these things don't seem to be that important.

The important thing is that Ji Qinian knows this.

Ji Qinian must already be in Yu Qinghe and Gu Tuo's apartment.

＊

Zhou Fengyun guessed everything correctly.

"Is your stomach still upset? I'll make you some porridge in the pressure cooker. After having severe diarrhea, you shouldn't eat anything greasy for the next couple of days. There's less fat in the chicken, so I'll peel it, chop it up, and add it to the porridge." Ji Qinian rolled up his sleeves and peeled the chicken in the kitchen.

Gu Tuo stood to the side watching, his face full of envy: "Senior Ji, you are really amazing. Judging from how you cook, you must cook often. You are so virtuous. Whoever is with you in the future will be so happy."

Ji Qinian laughed and looked up at Yu Qing, who was lying on the sofa.

Yu Qing lay on his side, his body bent over, and met Ji Qinian's gaze.

Ji Qinian glanced at it briefly before lowering his head and continuing with his work.

Yu Qing recalled the novels he had read before, where many protagonists felt warm and loved the people who took care of them when they were weak.

Yu Qing used to be unable to empathize because he had never been in a relationship, had never been weak, and had never been taken care of.

But now, when he was really feeling cold and weak from the diarrhea, he felt weak.

Look at the man who rushed over to cook porridge for him as soon as he heard the news.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't moved; this feeling was also someone else's sincere affection.

Even though the other party was only after the baby in her womb.

However, Yu Qing was still able to empathize slightly with the protagonists of the novels he had read in the past.

I've read books and learned a little bit of knowledge.

Ji Qinian turned on the stove. The pressure cooker cooks porridge very quickly; it was cooked through in about fifteen minutes.

He washed his hands and walked over to Yu Qing while drying them with a tissue. Yu Qing was lying on the sofa, wearing pajamas and without any blankets.

"Aren't you cold lying here like this?"

"It's not cold," Yu Qing replied. It was the middle of summer, and he felt a bit cool because he was weak.

"Let's cover him with a blanket," Gu Tuo said, going into the room to get a small blanket and covering Yu Qing with it.

Ji Qinian sat on the single sofa diagonally opposite them.

Yu Qing pulled the small blanket up and said, "Actually, you don't need to take such good care of me. I'm very strong. It's not a big deal if I have diarrhea."

Gu Tuo scoffed, "Strong, huh? Who couldn't even stand up straight last night?"

"Don't tell anyone, there are outsiders here..."

Ji Qinian was stung by the words "outsider" used by Yu Qing.

Gu Tuo rummaged through their snack box and found a bag of dried radish.

"Let's stir-fry a side dish to go with the porridge later, like dried radish stir-fried with minced meat, it'll be super delicious."

Ji Qinian asked, "Is the dried radish spicy?"

“Yes, a little bit. Qingqing can’t eat it,” Gu Tuo said. “It’s okay, Senior Ji and I will eat it. Qingqing can just pick out some salt first.”

Yu Qing asked pitifully, "So miserable?"

“There’s meat in the porridge, so it won’t be too bland.” Ji Qinian said, getting up and taking the packet of dried radish from Gu Tuo’s hand. “I’ll wash it with water, so it won’t be too spicy.”

Gu Tuo had no objection; he wasn't someone who couldn't live without spicy food.

Ji Qinian washed the dried radish twice, rinsing away all the dried chili peppers.

Gu Tuo came over to help and took the minced meat out of the refrigerator.

"Bought it yesterday."

"Okay." Ji Qinian took the box of minced meat, chopped some ginger, and smashed two cloves of garlic.

He only started stir-frying the side dishes after the porridge was ready.

Gu Tuo stood by and watched.

Yu Qing sat up and craned his neck to look.

Ji Qinian put oil in the iron pot and added ginger and minced garlic.

The aroma filled the air in no time.

Yu Qing didn't have much of an appetite to begin with, but the aroma made him hungry.

The oil sizzles and bubbles, then the minced meat is added, and with a whoosh, steam rises.

The exhaust fan hummed and drew all the smoke out.

When the minced meat turns golden brown, add the dried radish, stir-fry quickly in the aroma of the meat, then turn off the heat and plate it.

"It smells so good!" Yu Qing and Gu Tuo praised at the same time.

Ding-dong!

Just then, the doorbell rang.

"Who is it?" Gu Tuo asked as he walked over and glanced through the peephole.

He's a food delivery guy.

Who ordered takeout?

Gu Tuo said that he had already opened the door.

Yu Qing: "I didn't order it."

Ji Qinian: "It wasn't me either."

The delivery guy handed over a cube-shaped insulated bag that was wider than Gu Tuo's body. Just looking at the bag, it looked expensive.

The bag was printed with a beautiful design and had the words "Baiweige Private Kitchen" written in large letters.

Gu Tuo knew this restaurant. This private kitchen was very famous in Anshi. He opened a branch, and the owner personally cooked to ensure the quality of the dishes. Many people wanted to franchise, but he refused them all, fearing that if they did, the chefs' skills would be inadequate and damage his reputation.

As a result, his restaurant is always packed, and you need to make a reservation a week in advance, and even then, you might not be able to get a table.

They don't even offer takeout.

The deliveryman politely said, "Sir, your meal has been delivered. Enjoy your meal."

"Doesn't this store not offer delivery?" Gu Tuo asked.

"Yes, this was ordered by a gentleman from the store and then delivered by a local delivery service." The deliveryman tugged at his vest and pointed to the words on it, saying, "Besides food delivery, we also do local express delivery. This is my business card. If you need local express delivery in the future, just scan the QR code on it."

“Oh, thank you… Do you know which gentleman gave it to you?” Gu Tuo asked again.

"I don't know. I'm only responsible for delivering goods. The platform doesn't show customers' real information; it's confidential," the delivery driver said apologetically.

"Okay, thank you." Gu Tuo closed the door, carrying the heavy insulated bag.

"Who sent it? I've heard the food at this restaurant is delicious, but it's so hard to get a reservation."

"I don't know." Yu Qing shook his head. He didn't think he could have a friend who would send him such a lavish meal unless he was A Ding, in which case Zhou Fengyun would be so generous.

But he is Yu Qing now.

"Your secret admirer, isn't she?" Yu Qing joked with a smile.

"Huh? It's such a failure for someone to have a crush on someone like that. At least let me know who it is." Gu Tuo brought out all the dishes and checked the insulated bags inside and out several times, but he didn't find any cards or notes.

He was a little scared. "I don't know who sent it. Is it safe to eat? Could it be poisoned?"

Yu Qing was originally eager to try it out, but Gu Tuo's words made him afraid.

"Could it be that they're planning to catch the bad guys who are going to be your last supper?"

"Don't scare me." Gu Tuo swallowed hard; this dish smelled delicious...

Looking at the table full of dishes, Ji Qinian felt that they were all meant for him.

Could Zhou Fengyun have already discovered it?

How low can the IQ of someone who can become a bureau chief be?

The little monster came closer, drooling.

"Let me have some, I won't die."

Yu Qing and Gu Tuo suddenly reached out with both hands in a tacit gesture.

"Please go ahead!"

The little monster didn't care at all about being the poison tester; after all, he wouldn't die.

Just as the little monster was about to grab something, Gu Tuo grabbed it, disinfected it with an alcohol swab, and then let it eat with its hands.

There were nine dishes and one soup on the coffee table, a total of ten dishes.

Everything was steamed, and it looked very light, but it was very fresh and fragrant.

Even though it's takeout, the packaging is very high-end, and there are even carved decorations on the plate.

The little monster took a big bite of every dish.

Yu Qing, Gu Tuo, Ji Qinian, and the little dog were all looking at him.

"How is it?" Yu Qing asked. "Is it delicious?"

The little monster swallowed it whole, giving a mumbled reply: "Good, delicious, so thick..."

"It's not going to die anyway, so how can we tell if it's poisonous?" Gu Tuo asked.

The little monster's eyes sparkled: "It's poisonous, you adorable little thing..."

"You have such a cunning way of thinking." Yu Qing saw through his schemes at a glance.

Gu Tuo couldn't resist any longer, picked up his chopsticks, grabbed a piece of something that looked unrecognizable, and put it in his mouth.

"I'd rather die than not have a bite."

After taking one bite, Gu Tuo's eyes lit up: "So delicious! This is such a soft and glutinous lotus root stuffed with water chestnuts and minced pork, and it even smells of osmanthus!"

Yu Qing couldn't resist the deliciousness of a steamed meatloaf.

He picked up his chopsticks, grabbed one, and started eating.

"It smells so good."

This was the first time he had ever tasted food with the fragrance of osmanthus; it was so unique!

Looking at the simple dishes on the table, Ji Qinian clearly understood that they were ordered for Yu Qing.

He asked, still somewhat unwilling to give up, "Do you still want some porridge?"

Yu Qing discovered that one of the nine dishes was also porridge.

"There's porridge here too, Senior Ji, why don't you come and eat with us? We'll save the porridge for a midnight snack."

Ji Qinian pursed his lips helplessly.

"All right."

Then, the three people, a dog, and a monster sat around the coffee table, enjoying their meal immensely.

Ji Qinian suddenly had a bad idea and took a picture of the food that he had eaten most of.

I posted on my WeChat Moments: I also managed to mooch off my colleague Gu Tuo's secret admirer who sent me a big meal. But this kind of secret admirer is no good; I didn't even know who it was after I finished the meal.

At 10 p.m., Ji Qinian finally left Yu Qing and Gu Tuo's apartment with the little dog.

As soon as he got in the car, he curiously opened his WeChat Moments to see if anyone had liked his post.

There were people who liked it, all of whom were colleagues from Haishi.

Several of my colleagues in Anshi also gave it a thumbs up.

But no one commented.

He genuinely wanted to know how Zhou Fengyun would react when he saw this.

He's happy as long as he gets angry.

He casually swiped and refreshed his WeChat Moments.

Then I saw that Zhou Fengyun had updated his status.

His WeChat Moments only has this one post.

A photo of myself standing on a balcony, with a bright moon hanging in the dark sky in the distance.

The photo has a dark tone, and the person is wearing a black shirt.

The broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs from behind make it seem like she's deliberately showing off her figure.

Otherwise, why would he have specifically changed into a pair of silver-gray and black suit pants?

In dark photos, this color scheme makes the bulge of the buttocks the highlight.

His hand, casually resting on the railing, held a dark red rose between his index and middle fingers.

He did it on purpose.

The tagline reads: "The bright moon understands my heart, as long as you are well."

"Grass……"

Ji Qinian couldn't help but swear and threw his phone onto the passenger seat.

I never expected him to be such a show-off.

He has successfully established the persona of a devoted lover who silently loves you.

Brilliant method!

＊

Unfortunately, Yu Qing wasn't a romantic man; he simply couldn't understand it.

I just feel that this kind of copywriting and image doesn't match Zhou Fengyun at all.

Therefore, he did not believe that it was written by Zhou Fengyun.

Looking at the color tone of the picture, it's a classic dark-themed phone wallpaper.

I didn't even think that the male model was Zhou Fengyun.

Yu Qingbing, with an attitude of appreciating male models, commented: "This male model has a really nice butt."

Zhou Fengyun replied to you: "The front is also upturned."

Yu Qing replied: "No picture, no truth."

Then nothing happened.

Yu Qing turned off the light and was about to drift off to sleep when his phone received a message.

He took it and looked at it.

Zhou Fengyun sent him a picture, and he opened it without thinking.

A very large close-up.

It's almost poking my belly button!

"Ah!" Yu Qing's hand trembled, and the phone flew up, landing with a slap on his face.
