Chapter 227: Strange Man



Bones wrapped under the skin? Wen Yulong shuddered as he imagined the scene.

Wu Xiuli brought her two children to the hospital and saw her father-in-law Wen Yiran, her brother-in-law Wen Yulun, and several doctors from the hospital standing in the corridor and talking about something.

Wu Xiuli had just angered Aunt Wang and left, and she felt a little guilty. When she saw Wen Yiran and the others, she didn't dare get too close, so she had to stand aside and wait, holding her two children back to prevent them from getting too close.

Not long after, the door of the ward opened and an old man in his sixties walked out.

After Wu Xiuli heard what the old man said to Wen Yiran, she walked away with her head held high. When the old man passed by Wu Xiuli, he glanced at her.

Wu Xiuli only felt that the old man's eyes were like a sharp laser shooting at her. Under the old man's gaze, Wu Xiuli could not help but lower her head.

Wu Xiuli raised her head only after the old man had left. She saw an ecstatic expression on Wen Yiran's face, and he was beckoning Wen Yulun to go into the ward with him.

Hu Zhongliang hurriedly followed Wen Yiran into the ward. He was really curious. When Zhou Xi left just now, he actually told Wen Yiran that Feng Xueying was well and could be discharged today?

For several days, Hu Zhongliang had tried everything but failed to find the cause of Feng Xueying's illness. Even Zhao Qingshan, whom Hu Zhongliang had always admired, was at a loss when faced with Feng Xueying's illness. However, Zhou Xi cured Feng Xueying in less than half an hour, which was an absolute miracle for Hu Zhongliang.

When Wen Yiran and the others entered the ward, Feng Xueying was still lying on the bed with her eyes closed, her face serene. Her wrinkles still looked the same, but Wen Yiran was relieved to see that her complexion was no longer dull, but had a gleam of life and vitality.

Wen Yulong stood in front of the bed, dazed, not knowing what he was thinking. His left hand, hidden by his sleeve, was trembling slightly.

When Wen Yulong saw Wen Yiran and the others coming in, his lips trembled. He wanted to say something but didn't say it.

"Yulong, go and complete the discharge procedures for your mother." Wen Yiran gave an order upon seeing this.

From the moment Zhou Xi drove them out of the ward to the moment Zhou Xi came out and announced that Feng Xueying's "illness" had been cured, Wen Yiran's mind had been spinning for a while.

Wen Yiran was well-informed and knew that there were "strange people" in the world. Zhou Xi was clearly one of them. Wen Yiran knew that these "strange people" often had eccentric temperaments. Zhou Xi had kicked them out of the ward because he probably didn't want too many people to witness him treating Feng Xueying.

In this era, atheism was the norm, and anything that didn't conform to the laws of nature was considered heresy. Zhou Xi had no idea what tricks he had used to scare his son, known as the "iron man in the army."

Wen Yiran had already begun to speculate about the situation in the ward. With so many people around, Wen Yiran was worried Wen Yulong might say something he shouldn't, so he quickly sent him off to do something. He believed his mood would return to normal after he completed the discharge procedures.

Zhou Xi has such ability that the Wen family cannot afford to offend him.

Wen Yulong followed his father's instructions and went out in a daze to arrange for Feng Xueying to be discharged from the hospital. His mind was in a mess, and he didn't even hear Wu Xiuli calling out to him several times.

Wu Xiuli bit her lip and watched Wen Yulong walking further and further away. Her face turned pale and blue. However, Wu Xiuli's mental quality was not bad. In less than half a minute, her complexion had returned to normal.

Well, Yulong must have been busy doing something and didn't hear her call. He shouldn't have ignored her on purpose.

"Mom, shall we go in?" Wen Ziqiu asked, looking up at her little face.

To be honest, Wen Ziqiu doesn't like coming to the hospital at all. The disinfectant in the hospital smells pungent and strange, and Wen Ziqiu particularly hates that smell.

"Mom, let's go in! Since we are here, we must go see grandma before we leave." Wen Ziyun's idea was very simple. Since they came to visit the patient, they couldn't go back without seeing her.

Just now, when Wen Yiran and a few others were talking, Wen Ziyun wanted to go over and say hello, but Wu Xiuli grabbed his hand tightly and he couldn't move.

Wen Ziyun didn't understand what Wu Xiuli wanted to do, but he could feel that Wu Xiuli was very strong, so strong that he didn't want to struggle.

Wen Ziqiu thought about it and realized that it was true. Grandpa was in there, and it would be a shame if he didn't show off in front of him. After making up his mind, Wen Ziqiu let go of Wu Xiuli's hand and ran to the ward first.

Feng Xueying opened her eyes on the hospital bed and felt refreshed, as if she had just had a long nap.

Wen Ziqiu ran to the door of the ward and just saw Feng Xueying, who was lying on the bed, turned her head towards him.

Wen Ziqiu was startled by Feng Xueying's old appearance, and couldn't help but yell, "Oh my god! She's so ugly!"

Kyoto, He family.

Today is New Year's Eve. Cao Yumei had already made arrangements a few days ago. Everything has gone well this year, so it's time to prepare a table of delicious food to make everyone happy.

Early in the morning, Cao Yumei had already arranged the menu for the reunion dinner, and the servants began to get busy.

Cao Yumei's husband, He Boqian, was promoted this year to the rank of director-level cadre. However, what makes Cao Yumei happy is not her husband's success, but the closeness of her stepdaughter, He Jingjing.

During Cao Yumei's first two years as a stepmother, He Jingjing found ways to antagonize her. He Jingjing was the He family's favorite, and within the He family, anyone who disliked her was shunned by the others. He Jingjing's attitude doomed Cao Yumei to a two-year period of trepidation.

Two years ago, He Jingjing's attitude towards Cao Yumei took a big turn. Not only did she stop venting her anger on Cao Yumei, she also called her "Auntie" all the time and treated her like a real mother and daughter.

Cao Yumei knew that He Jingjing was a sophisticated child, and had set her sights on her eldest sister's son, Wen Ziqing. However, the fact that He Jingjing could be close to her was something Cao Yumei had been eager to achieve. If He Jingjing and Wen Ziqing were to truly become a couple, considering their family background, Wen Ziqing would be marrying above his station.

That day, after breakfast, He Jingjing and her stepmother, Cao Yumei, sat on the sofa and chatted as usual. Ever since her trip to Qingshan City, He Jingjing had become deeply interested in the Wen family's offshoot, the Qingshan Wen family. These days, whenever she had free time, He Jingjing would pester Cao Yumei about the Wen family.

Cao Yumei didn't really know much about the Wen family in Qingshan City. Since her eldest sister Cao Aimei's death, the Cao and Wen families had essentially severed ties. If it weren't for her nephew Wen Ziqing, Cao Yumei suspected the Caos would have fallen out with the Wens.
