Chapter 40 A Vixen
In the hospital ward.
Jiang Ruyun went back after lunch.
He said that he had to attend a banquet with Gu Yuntian in the evening and would be back tomorrow morning.
So starting from the afternoon, there were only Li Zhi and Li Yanjing in the ward.
At this time, the mother and son had just finished the dinner brought by the servant.
After Li Yanjing cleaned up the table, he took out an orange from the fruit bowl. When he was halfway through peeling it, he heard a knock on the ward door.
He quickly peeled the orange in his hand and handed it to Li Zhi, then stood up from the stool and walked towards the door.
Li Yanjing opened the door, and when her eyes fell on the face of the man standing next to Pei Yuanzhi, seeing the eyebrows and eyes that were very similar to her own, her pupils suddenly contracted, and she subconsciously slammed the door shut.
The moment Xie Tingzhou opened the door and met his eyes, he recognized that this was his child.
Pei Yuanzhi looked at the door that closed again, "Hey, what does this mean?"
Xie Tingzhou raised the corner of his lip, "Of course he recognized me and felt guilty."
"Well...should we just open the door and go in?" Pei Yuanzhi asked.
"No need, wait a little longer." Xie Tingzhou replied.
On the other side of the door, a trace of panic flashed in Li Yanjing's eyes. He didn't expect the other party to come to his door so soon. He immediately turned around and returned to the ward.
He looked at the woman on the bed, watching videos on her phone, and said in a deep voice, "Li Zhi, that person is here."
Li Zhi replied casually without even looking up: "Huh? Who's here?"
Li Yanjing pursed her lips, "My biological father..."
Li Zhi paused while scrolling the screen, raised her eyes to look at him, eyebrows slightly raised, but she was not panicked at all, and said leisurely: "She's outside the door."
Li Yanjing nodded and said, "Yes, I came here with that guy from this afternoon."
Just as he finished speaking, there was another knock on the ward door.
Li Zhi put down the phone slowly, raised her fair chin slightly, and said, "Don't be afraid, go open the door."
Li Yanjing met her dark eyes, and his originally panicked heart inexplicably calmed down. He responded softly and turned to walk towards the door.
He reopened the door, his eyes slightly lowered, and said in a cold voice: "Come in."
After saying that, he turned around and walked inside.
Pei Yuanzhi looked at Li Yanjing's small back, coughed lightly, and whispered: "Brother Ting, you are indeed my son. This little boy is so arrogant."
Xie Tingzhou raised his eyebrows, said nothing, and walked in.
Seeing this, Pei Yuanzhi hurriedly followed and closed the door.
......
Li Zhi looked at the man walking behind Li Yanjing and began to observe him secretly.
I saw that he had very fair skin, thick, inky black hair hanging down over his strong brow bones, a high nose bridge, and bright red lips.
Her black eyes were cold and indifferent, but there was a faint red mole at the corner of her eye, and the tail of her eye was slightly upturned, which gave her a hint of charm.
He is simply a real male vixen.
Comparing him with Li Yanjing, it is obvious at a glance that the two look very similar, and there is no doubt that they are father and son.
It is conceivable that when little Radish grows up, he will definitely look like a male vixen.
However, without the added bonus of the red mole at the corner of her eye, she would naturally lack some charm compared to the man in front of her.
While Li Zhi was looking at him, Xie Tingzhou was also looking at her.
No wonder when he saw her on the phone, he felt like he had seen her eyes somewhere before. Now he was sure that she was the woman from that night.
Although he was unconscious at the time, the room was not pitch black, and he remembered those beautiful eyes that were full of fear.
I don’t know if it was his illusion, but these eyes were even more beautiful and attractive than before.
Her face is curved on the outside and upturned on the inside, clean and beautiful, but her pupils are extremely dark, as dark as the hazy night, adding a bit of coldness and indifference.
"Master Li, hello, I'm here again." Pei Yuanzhi was the first to speak and break the silence.
Li Zhi retracted her gaze and fixed it on him, her upturned eyes sparkling. "Why, do you want me to tell your friend's fortune?"
Pei Yuanzhi was about to say no, but Xie Tingzhou beside him spoke before him, "Yes, Miss Li, please tell me your fortune."
Li Zhi looked at him again and nodded, "Okay, what do you want to calculate?"
Xie Tingzhou glanced at Li Yanjing standing by the bedside and said slowly, "I heard from Yuanzhi that Miss Li, you are a fortune teller. So, please help me calculate the current whereabouts of my biological son who has been stranded outside."
Pei Yuanzhi turned to look at him when he heard that, and gave him a thumbs up in his heart. He really was his brother Ting.
Li Zhi smiled slightly, "Simple, far away in the horizon and close at hand."
Li Yanjing: “?!”
He thought Li Zhi would deny it, so he made up a lie and told it to him, but he didn't expect her to say it directly. For a moment, he was a little confused about Li Zhi's actions.
Li Yanjing's hands hanging by her side tightened slightly, and she suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart. Could it be that Li Zhi wanted to hand her over?
A hint of surprise flashed in Xie Tingzhou's eyes, and he was a little surprised. He had the same idea as Li Yanjing.
He pretended to be confused even though he knew the truth. "Miss Li, could you please explain it more clearly?"
"It seems that your ability to understand is not very good." Li Zhi raised his hand and pointed at Li Yanjing beside him, "Isn't this your son?"
She paused and continued, "Since you've already figured it out yourself, why bother asking me?"
"However, I still have to collect the money from you for the fortune-telling."
Xie Tingzhou chuckled, finding this woman quite interesting. He said with a firm tone, "So it was you that night."
"It's me, otherwise your son would have jumped out of a stone." Li Zhi said slowly.
"Master Li, when I asked you earlier, why did you lie to me and say you were master and disciple?" Pei Yuanzhi couldn't help but interrupt. He glanced at Xie Tingzhou beside him, coughed lightly, and said awkwardly, "You even said the child's father died before he was born..."
Li Zhi raised an eyebrow and said seriously, "When did I lie to you? My son and I are not only mother and son, but also master and apprentice. We only told you one layer of our relationship. As for him having no father since childhood, isn't that just a dead man to me?"
Pei Yuanzhi couldn't refute it, so he raised his hand and touched the tip of his nose, "So that's how it is."
Li Zhi's gaze fell on Xie Tingzhou again, "So you came here to snatch my son away from me?"
"Will you give it to me?" Xie Tingzhou asked back.
Hearing him ask this, Li Yanjing's heart instantly rose to his throat, fearing that Li Zhi would really give her away.
"No," Li Zhi replied, "I've raised my son for five years, why should I give it to you?"
Hearing her answer, Li Yanjing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and his heart finally settled down.
