Chapter 942 Let him sleep on the streets
Brother Qiu was already feeling uneasy under Ye Wanxi's gaze, and upon hearing Ye Wanxi's words, his hair stood on end and he gasped for breath!
The Qiu family members, especially Qiu Linshan's parents, paled instantly and asked anxiously, "Miss Ye... is Qingbai in some danger?"
"It wasn't him, it was someone close to him."
"The people around him?" Upon hearing that nothing was wrong with her son, Qiu's mother breathed a slight sigh of relief. Then she began to think carefully. Who could be around her son?
Qiu Qingbai is the successor that his father is grooming. There are usually many people coming and going around him. But since Ye Wanxi has pointed this out directly and even made an exception to allow him to buy two more tickets to give to her, it is likely that he has a good relationship with the people around him.
Qiu Qingbo doesn't have a girlfriend either. Besides his family, the only people he can really care about are his two "brothers" who grew up with him since childhood.
"What danger might they be in? Can we avoid it?"
"Everything in the world has its own destiny. Whether or not they can avoid it depends on their luck."
Qiu Qingbo's eyelids twitched; he had a gut feeling that the two brothers were about to face a major ordeal!
"Will carrying this amulet save their lives?"
Before Qiu Qingbai could finish speaking and before Ye Wanxi could say anything, Qiu Linshan, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it anymore and pinched him hard.
Her older brother usually seems quite shrewd, so why does he always act so foolishly at crucial moments? If he were useless, would Miss Ye have been confiding in him for so long?
Qiu Qingbai was also confused by his concern, but his sister's reminder made him quickly realize what was wrong: "Thank you for the reminder, Miss Ye. I will take the amulet to them as soon as I get back."
As Qiu Qingbai spoke, he hurriedly transferred the extra money, afraid that Ye Wanxi would get angry and stop him from buying it.
With this little incident, Qiu Qingbai was eager to return home, and the Qiu family members didn't want to disturb him any further, so they quickly took their leave.
The Qiu family members walked quickly, with only Aunt Qiu lagging behind. She looked at Ye Wanxi with a hesitant expression, seemingly embarrassed and guilty.
Ye Wanxi raised an eyebrow and asked, "What's wrong, Aunt Qiu?"
Aunt Qiu smiled awkwardly and asked in a low voice, "Um, did you not tell Tianyu's mother about your illness?"
Ye Wanxi's eyes widened suddenly, a sense of foreboding rising within her.
Seeing her expression, Aunt Qiu knew she had guessed correctly, and said with a hint of guilt, "I thought you had told her, so I specifically called her before coming to ask about your situation, but..."
As a result, the other party naturally knew nothing about it. Ye Wanxi never told Feng's mother or Du Yihuan about these things.
Firstly, she felt it was unnecessary. Ever since she underwent the tribulation lightning tempering, she rarely got injured, and even if she did, she could recover quickly. Secondly, she was afraid they would worry and didn't want to scare them.
Unexpectedly...
"I'm so sorry."
Aunt Qiu meant well in the end, so what could Ye Wanxi do?
"It's alright, it's alright. It's not a bad thing for Auntie to know. You don't need to worry about it."
Ye Wanxi repeatedly assured Aunt Qiu that it was no big deal and comforted her for a few more minutes before sending her away.
No sooner had Aunt Qiu left than Feng Tianyu arrived.
Seeing Ye Wanxi's troubled expression with her brows furrowed, he asked with some confusion, "What happened?"
Ye Wanxi didn't hide anything and explained the whole story. Then she asked nervously, "Do you think Auntie will be angry?"
"Yes." Feng Tianyu looked at his junior sister's small body, which stiffened instantly, and chuckled, "But I'm not angry at you, I'm angry at myself."
"You're making me angry?" Ye Wanxi was about to ask again when her phone rang at just the right moment. She looked down and saw that it had arrived right on cue!
"Aunt……"
As soon as the call connected, Feng's mother got straight to the point: "Wanxi, I heard from your Aunt Qiu that you've been sick recently and are resting at home."
"It's nothing, just a slight cold due to the recent climate change, but I'm almost... better."
Before Ye Wanxi could finish speaking, Feng's mother interrupted her loudly: "How can you say this is nothing? You didn't tell your aunt about such a serious cold. Don't you consider your aunt family?"
Ye Wanxi: "???" It's just a minor cold, how did it get involved in such a big deal as whether we're family or not?
"Auntie knows you grew up in an orphanage and aren't used to talking about these things with your elders. But now you have Tianyu, me, and Yihuan. Auntie really hopes you can treat us all as family, tell us anything, and share the burden together. This has really saddened Auntie."
"No, no, no, Auntie, you've misunderstood. How could I not consider you and Yihuan as family? I'm just... I've just been busy lately and haven't had time to think about it. Next time something like this happens, I'll definitely tell you right away."
"Then let's hope there won't be a next time. As long as you are safe and healthy, Auntie will be happier than anyone else."
Madam Feng's words were extremely kind and pleasant, but the next second her tone suddenly changed, and she said coldly, "However, this is indeed not your fault. You are sick and feeling unwell, how can you have the mind to think about these things? If you ask me, this is Tianyu's fault."
Ye Wanxi: "???"
Feng Tianyu: "..." As expected.
"I don't know how he can be a good boyfriend. His girlfriend is sick and he doesn't even take good care of her. He didn't even think to ask me for advice. He's such a blockhead!"
Ye Wanxi: "..." This reason is strong enough. Her senior brother is completely caught in the crossfire!
After giving her son a good dressing down, Feng's mother didn't forget to ask, "Is he with you now?"
Ye Wanxi was a little embarrassed. So you knew he was right next to me, and you still complained about him like that!
"……Here I am."
"That's good. Wanxi, you're sick, so you definitely need someone to take care of you at home. My good-for-nothing son may be a bit slow, but he still knows the most basic things about caring for people. For the next while, you can keep him at home as a babysitter who's always available to take care of you until you get better, okay?"
"..." I seriously suspect that you said all this just to keep people here with me!
Ye Wanxi's lips twitched slightly, and she forced a dry laugh, "That won't be necessary. I'm almost fully recovered and can take care of myself. Besides, my manager is here. My brother's company is very busy, so there's really no need..."
Before Ye Wanxi could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Madam Feng once again.
"How can that be the same? An agent is an agent, and a boyfriend is a boyfriend. At times like these, it's your boyfriend who should be by your side, not your agent. Don't worry about company matters either, I'm here for you."
"Can……"
"That's settled then. Don't let him come back. If he does come back, don't take him in. Let him sleep on the streets."
After finishing her sentence, Feng's mother, fearing that Ye Wanxi would find another reason to force Feng Tianyu back, hung up the phone decisively.
Ye Wanxi: "..."
Feng Tianyu: "..."
