Han Chen looked down at his right hand. He clenched and loosened it, trying to move his hand. The piercing pain in his joints made his face wrinkle.
As the saying goes, brothers are connected even if bones are broken. That's probably what it means.
Han Ze was in pain, and he was in pain too.
But he could feel the pain, but he couldn't let Zhou Mo feel the pain.
Han Chen returned to the box.
Seeing that his face looked a little grim, Zhou Mo couldn't help but ask, "Are you sending Fourth Brother downstairs? What took you so long?"
"Yeah," Han Chen replied calmly and said nothing more.
During the meal.
Liang Xinyun and Han Yu also chatted with Yan Yi?
Most of them revolved around the interesting stories of Han Chen and his brothers from childhood to adulthood. Of course, when talking to Yan Yi, Han Chi would definitely be the focus.
Zhou Mo also listened a lot from the side.
Seeing that no one had touched the fish head in the boiled fish, she fished it out herself, then used chopsticks to pick off a piece of meat near the fish eyes and gave it to Han Chen.
Zhou Zheng said that the piece of meat near the fish's eyes is the best-tasting piece of meat on the fish.
So he always picked it for Liu Xiangru.
Zhou Mo also followed suit.
The meat was placed on Han Chen's plate, but he didn't move it. Instead, he just stared blankly.
"You don't want to eat the meat?" Zhou Mo poked him.
Only then did Han Chen notice the extra piece of meat on the plate.
"You eat it," he pushed his plate to Zhou Mo.
"But I want to give it to you," Zhou Mo insisted.
Han Chen had no choice but to pick up his chopsticks, endure the pain in his knuckles, and clumsily pick up the piece of fish.
Zhou Mo saw that he was using chopsticks very stiffly. She frowned and asked, "What's wrong with your hand?"
"It's okay," Han Chen gritted his teeth, picked up the fish neatly, and stuffed it into his mouth. He smiled and said, "It tastes good."
Zhou Mo felt something was strange.
The dinner is over.
Han Yu took Yan Yi and sent her to the hotel where she was staying.
Han Chen drove and sent Liang Xinyun back to Yuanshang Residence first.
Before Liang Xinyun got off the car, she reminded Han Chen, "By the way, there's something I haven't told you. I only remembered it today when I met Run and Wo."
"Well, you say."
"Your third aunt called me and asked about your fourth brother."
"Are you asking me where my fourth brother is?"
"Yes," Liang Xinyun said, "I didn't know he was actually in Dongjiang at the time. Your third aunt also said that if your fourth brother asked to borrow money, I must not give it to him."
"What happened to Fourth Brother? Did they tell me?"
"No," Liang Xinyun said, "Stay away from your third uncle's affairs and don't get involved. The same goes for your second uncle."
"I know."
Liang Xinyun sighed slightly, "Han Chen, do you understand why I risked breaking up with the Han family to get you out of there?"
"I know."
Liang Xinyun's face was solemn. She wanted to say more but didn't. "It's good that you know. I'm leaving. You and Momo should be well."
"I know. Bye, Mom."
Zhou Mo also turned around and said goodbye, "Goodbye, Aunt Liang."
The car came out of Century Jiayuan.
On the way.
Zhou Mo felt that the atmosphere today was a bit subtle.
Liang Xinyun was a little worried.
Han Chen seemed to have something on his mind as well.
Zhou Mo wanted to ask, but didn't know where to start.
"By the way, when Yan Yi and I went out today, did you try to ask Auntie if she had received any news?"
"I asked," Han Chen said. "Yan Yi is in Dongjiang. She didn't go anywhere special. When the research institute team came, she followed them to Yushan. After the team left, she donated money and supplies to many grassroots health centers here in my third brother's name. She's been busy these days handling the donation procedures."
"Huh?" This made people more confused.
"I also want to know what she wants to do."
"Deliberately showing your love?"
"Not really," Han Chen said, "If she wants to show her love, why not go to Shanghai? Isn't it too much trouble to come to Dongjiang? My third brother isn't an official in Dongjiang, so even if she shows her love, it won't necessarily help him much."
"Maybe it's because you and your aunt are here? You're both in the medical field, and the First Hospital of Dongda University isn't short of money, so why not donate to the grassroots who are in need?"
Han Chen sneered: "Who knows?"
Seeing that Han Chen's attitude towards Yan Yi had not changed, Zhou Mo also had doubts and was reluctant to make a simple judgment on whether Yan Yi was good or bad.
Han Chen didn't like her, so he naturally had his reasons for not liking her.
Zhou Mo respected Han Chen's opinion, but she also had reservations.
Han Chen was afraid that Zhou Mo's heart would waver, so he reminded her, "No matter how good Yan Yi makes you feel, she ignored my status as the third brother and insisted on having the house by the Huangling River. This is undeniable."
"I don't have a very good feeling about her," Zhou Mo said. "This is the first time I've met her, and we're not familiar with each other yet. How can I know if she's pretending? Besides, trusting people easily isn't my style. I always have to wait and see."
"That's fine," Han Chen said. "Don't get involved in anything related to the Han family in the future, including my aunt and my mother. Now, concentrate on your doctorate and leave the rest to me."
Zhou Mo paused for a moment, then looked at Han Chen again.
"You... and Aunt Liang, are you talking in code?"
The words he used were exactly the same as when he met Han Chi, leaving the listeners confused.
"Don't ask," Han Chen said, "You promised me before that you wouldn't ask about certain things. Also, I also told you, Momo, you need to be smarter."
Zhou Mo nodded, already understanding.
The next day.
Yan Yi returned to Shanghai by plane.
Han Chi sent another message to Han Chen: She has returned, thank you for your care.
When Zhou Mo learned about this, he always felt that Han Chi's behavior was unnecessary.
Why did Yan Yi go back and tell Han Chen specifically? And Han Chen didn't take care of Yan Yi.
Han Chen said: "Sometimes when you look at a sentence, you can't just look at what it says, but why it says it."
Zhou Mo: "What about your third brother's words? Why?"
Han Chen: "He didn't receive any bad hints from me about Yan Yi?"
Zhou Mo suddenly understood.
"You are worthy of your surname Han, you understand so quickly," Zhou Mo thought to himself. When Han Chen first received Han Chi's message, he didn't immediately understand Han Chi's thoughts.
Now that I have received news from Han Chi, I can already become a worm in Han Chi's stomach.
Han Chi is indeed a smart man. Through Han Chen's reaction, he can roughly grasp the trend and direction of the development of things.
No news is the best news.
If there is any news about Yan Yi, even if Han Chen does not reveal anything to Han Chi, he will definitely hint something to Han Chi, and the topic will always be led to Yan Yi's suspicion.
However, Yan Yi had been in Dongjiang for such a long time, and Han Chen hadn't said anything to Han Chi, which meant that there was nothing wrong with Yan Yi himself, or that he hadn't discovered any problems.
Han Chen said, "Now you know why my third brother is called 'Lin Feng'. His given name is just the character 'Chi', which means 'A golden scale cannot be confined to a pond; once it encounters wind and clouds, it transforms into a dragon.'"
Zhou Mo suddenly realized, "No wonder his calligraphy style is different from yours."
