Chapter 171
He didn't blame Uncle Wen for telling Wen Xinyu his secret. After all, in the study of human social relations, his wife and daughter were the most important people in Uncle Wen's life, and family relationships were the most intimate system.
As the son of a friend, he was too far away from the other party and had no right to criticize the matter.
"You said, everything my father said is...true..."
Shi Ye thought for a moment and said, "Maybe some of the words I used are inaccurate."
After all, Uncle Wen's prejudice against him largely comes from his father, and his softness towards him comes from his mother. Therefore, he is always in an extreme contradiction and cannot face Shi Ye calmly and self-consistently.
"But it's generally true. I am indeed a monster without human emotions."
The wind on the rooftop was very strong and the sunlight was dazzling. Shi Ye was standing against the light, which made Wen Xinyu, who had followed Shi Ye since childhood and thought she knew him very well, feel a sense of strangeness for the first time.
She shook her head, as if unable to accept this answer. "You're usually very normal... although a little aloof and doesn't like to talk to people, but... don't lie to me. I've seen many cases of emotional deficiency. They are simply unable to establish normal social relationships. And you, you have friends, you have..."
Wen Xinyu paused, then continued as if she had grabbed a lifeline: "Then...what about Jiang Zhinian? You married her and had a child. Don't you have feelings for her?"
Shi Ye didn't seem surprised by this question, but he had no intention of telling anyone else.
He simply turned his back, walked to the edge of the rooftop, flipped over, and stood on the parapet outside the wall amid Wen Xinyu's screams, then waved to Wen Xinyu.
"Come and try?"
Wen Xinyu was puzzled and walked behind him. There was a rooftop wall between them.
"Brother Shi Ye, you, you come in first..."
The hospital's inpatient building has 14 floors. She is a little afraid of heights, and she felt dizzy just standing on the wall and looking down.
"Are you scared?"
"Fear……"
Shi Ye said calmly and indifferently, "I don't feel anything."
Wen Xinyu didn't understand at first, but she soon understood.
"I, I don't believe it..."
Shi Ye shrugged, climbed over the wall, clapped his hands, and said indifferently: "I have fulfilled my obligations to you in my current status. The rest is up to you."
He straightened his clothes and turned to walk towards the rooftop entrance.
Just now on the parapet, he felt the vibration of the phone in his pocket and guessed that it must be Jiang Zhinian calling. He didn't want her to guess that he was on the rooftop or be disturbed by Wen Xinyu, so he didn't answer it. After he turned around and went down the stairs, he took out his phone and called back.
"What's wrong?"
"Shi Ye, Chen Feng told me that a mysterious organization funded the windmill!"
"Yeah."
"Yes, there is a way to pay for Xixi's surgery. She can be saved."
Shi Ye chuckled and asked her, "Are you feeling uncomfortable today?"
"No." Jiang Zhinian thought for a moment and told him about her coming to school. "You won't be angry, will you?"
"No." Jiang Zhinian is an adult. She knows her own body very well. As long as she feels it's okay, he will naturally have no objection. "Then I'll pick you up in the evening."
"Okay, oh, by the way, do you know who the teacher who substituted for me before was? You'll never guess!"
"I can't guess."
"Beg me, I'll tell you if you beg me." Jiang Zhinian became playful and teased Shi Ye on purpose.
"Yes, please."
"It's Zheng Chengfei's mother, Teacher Yu. She said she taught you in elementary school."
Shi Ye paused and said in a steady voice, "She still remembers me."
"Yes, she also said that you didn't do well in Chinese when you were a kid. By the way, did you have dyslexia before?"
"Yeah, it was a little mild, but it got better after I transferred to an international school."
Jiang Zhinian thought it was reasonable, because Chinese is the most difficult of all language systems, requiring the conversion from form to sound before it can express meaning. English, a language where what you read is what you get, is simpler.
"Oh, no wonder your spoken English is so good. You went to an international school. Then how did you end up attending a regular high school?"
“Because international schools are too expensive.”
"Just because of this?"
"Isn't that reason enough?"
Jiang Zhinian was amused by him and laughed: "That's a good reason."
"I'll pick you up tonight." He changed the subject naturally, then added casually, "The patient who had eclampsia and a sudden cerebral hemorrhage woke up today. She had a caesarean section, and the baby will be delivered early."
"Can the child survive?"
"Given her current gestational age, the probability of survival is very high."
Jiang Zhinian breathed a sigh of relief for the child.
"Okay, see you tonight."
Shi Ye hung up the phone and sent a message to Zhou Hongsheng. First, he explained what Zhou Hongyun had been doing recently so that he would have an idea. After all, Zhou Hongyun's actions had touched his bottom line. Second, he asked how the man who was captured by the computer surveillance camera that day got in.
Zhou Hongsheng called back.
"Brother Shi, I'm sorry about Hongyun's situation, but she moved out not long after returning to China. Our family doesn't know much about her situation."
"Well, it's none of your business."
"As for that man... I don't know how he got a key to your house, but he entered normally."
"knew."
Shi Ye actually guessed how he got the key. After all, the door of their house had not been changed for many years, and when he was ten years old, his father came to look for his mother once.
It was probably around that time that he stole a key, which was then copied by his half-brother through unknown means.
Zhou Hongsheng hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Brother Shi, you didn't let us call the police, is it because... that man is..."
"Yes, he is my half-brother."
After all, they all have a pair of gray eyes, and the information characteristics are too obvious, so there is no need to hide it.
"Brother Shi, what do you think his purpose is?"
Shi Ye thought back to a month ago when he brought Jiang Zhinian back to the ancient town. He seemed to have seen a man with gray eyes at the Spring Girl Prayer Ceremony. He looked somewhat similar to the man in the camera, but they were obviously not the same person.
Did he actually have so many half-brothers?
Shi Ye sneered and told Zhou Hongsheng not to worry, he could handle it himself, then hung up the phone. Coincidentally, Zheng Chengfei called.
"Shi Ye, this is bad. Professor Wen has been reported for academic fraud and it's already on the news."
