Chapter 70 Speculation
Cheng Fei's mind turned a hundred and eighty turns, and finally the thought of "how Lin Qiyuan would punish him if he revealed the truth" prevailed. He adjusted his facial expression, slowly turned his head, and met Lin's mother's well-maintained face and curious expression.
“???”
"Oh, it's Aunt Xue. Why are you in the hospital? Are you sick?" The first rule of Cheng's escape is to take the initiative and become the host.
"I'm accompanying a friend for a physical examination." There was indeed a woman with short blond curly hair standing next to Mother Lin. She looked about the same age as Mother Lin, dressed fashionably, and had a kind face. She nodded slightly at him.
"So, what are you doing here?" Mother Lin narrowed her eyes slightly. From Cheng Fei's perspective, her expression was almost exactly the same as Lin Qiyuan's.
Cheng Fei immediately sensed the danger and blurted out the words he had just prepared in his mind: "Oh, my girlfriend is sick, I came to see her."
For the sake of his brother's happiness, he risked being beaten by his own mother and fabricated a fictitious girlfriend for himself.
"Girlfriend? You have a girlfriend again?" Mother Lin looked at him disapprovingly. "You're not young anymore. It's time you find a girlfriend and settle down. Take our Xiao Yuan, for example. He's two years younger than you, and he already has one. What's her name?"
After hearing the previous words, Cheng Fei's heart skipped a beat, thinking that Lin Qiyuan had been exposed. When he heard the question about "girlfriend", he knew that Lin's mother was as cunning as Lin Qiyuan, and was trying to trick him!
Cheng Fei expressed his confusion at the right moment: "Girlfriend? Xiao Yuan has a girlfriend?"
Cheng Fei's acting skills were superb, as he gained experience in fighting with his parents. Mother Lin even suspected that she had misheard him.
"Then why didn't your girlfriend come out with you?"
"Oh, we just broke up. That's so dramatic."
Mother Lin didn’t know whether he was being a bitch or not, but every time she saw Cheng Fei being a scumbag to those girls, she wanted to beat him up on behalf of those girls’ parents.
Cheng Fei changes girlfriends quite frequently, and of course, his mother scolds him even more frequently.
"You are with Xiao Yuan every day, and you don't know that he is in a love relationship? You are busy with love affairs and cheating on other girls every day. Does your mother know?" Mother Lin slapped Cheng Fei on the shoulder with a bad tone.
This was a naked threat, telling him that he could either betray Lin Qiyuan or be betrayed by Lin Qiyuan's mother.
Cheng Fei struggled for a moment, then decided that Lin Qiyuan was more terrifying, so he replied less firmly, "My mom has been keeping a close eye on me lately, so I really don't know what's going on with Xiao Yuan."
Mother Lin glared at Cheng Fei twice with her almond-shaped eyes before letting him leave.
As soon as he left Lin's mother's sight, Cheng Fei immediately informed her of the news. Unfortunately, Lin Qiyuan's cell phone was knocked away and was broken into pieces, making it impossible to receive messages.
Seeing that he was getting sleepy, Zhou Yang quietly took the garbage out and planned to go out to buy him a mobile phone.
Seeing Mother Lin's downcast mood, the curly-haired middle-aged woman asked, "What's wrong? Are you still worried about your son's romantic partner? Let me tell you, your son Xiao Yuan is so outstanding, how could he possibly find someone bad?"
Mother Lin said bitterly, "They are all ungrateful. I just want to know who he is dating. A beautiful daughter-in-law always has to meet her parents-in-law, right?"
“You…”
"Fangfang, look!"
Fangfang, the curly-haired woman, followed her gaze towards the outpatient building. There were many people coming and going, and she had no idea what Xue Fanfan wanted her to look at. "What?"
"Look at that man!"
"Which one...Fuck!"
Fangfang looks very gentle on the surface, but he is a rough man at heart. However, he hasn't said the word "fuck" for a long time.
At the entrance of the outpatient building, Zhou Yang, wearing a gray-blue coat, was walking out of the crowd. His delicate face looked even more warm and translucent in the afternoon sunlight. His facial features were perfect like an angel, and his height and body shape were also perfect, unlike those of an ordinary person. Especially in contrast to a group of patients and their families with sad faces coming and going, even Zhou Yang with an expressionless face was enough to make anyone look sideways.
"Isn't he handsome?" Mother Lin said proudly.
"So handsome, is he a celebrity? I haven't heard of such a good-looking celebrity recently!"
"He's not a celebrity, he's the son of the owner of the Haining Hotel!"
"Do you know him?" Fangfang's eyes were full of stars, and she wanted to push him over to ask for his autograph and take a photo with him immediately.
"I don't know him, but he's the one that someone introduced to my son as a blind date."
"A blind date introduced to your son? Your son likes men? Did he go? Did it work out?" Fangfang was very excited and wished that Ms. Xue could answer all her questions immediately.
"Oh, of course not! I don't know if my son likes men or women, so I just try them all!"
"Then why not go?"
"I once suspected my son liked men because he'd never had a girlfriend. But then, when he agreed to go on a blind date with Miss Yan, I started to suspect he had a crush on her. Later, I felt that Miss Yan was too thoughtful and overly attentive, and probably not Xiao Yuan's type. Furthermore, it was always Yan Zichen who was the only one acting alone, and Xiao Yuan never responded."
"This is too confusing. No wonder you're so curious about his partner!" Fangfang sighed. Luckily, she gave birth to a daughter, and she'd already married. If she had given birth to a son, she would have kicked him into the Pacific Ocean with such worries. "So, does Xiao Yuan have a partner?"
Mother Lin's eyes were deep. "I wasn't sure at first, but now I'm basically certain. If they really hadn't talked about it, Cheng Fei would have been joking or even teasing about it. He wouldn't have denied it so categorically. He must have been threatened by Lin Qiyuan."
"If you ask me, you could just sneak in and raid their house! You won't see them during the day, but if you wait for a few nights, you'll definitely be exposed!"
"Do you think I haven't been squatting? He was squatting at the cinema before, and a few days ago he went to the Bayview Court. For three whole days, Lin Qiyuan was either not at home or he was alone at home. Not to mention the opposite sex, there was not even a trace of the same sex. I started to suspect that my son was going to become a monk and become a Buddha."
"The only clue now is the word 'Yang' that Cheng Fei let slip last time. I suspect Xiao Yuan's partner's surname is Yang."
"Who cares what his last name is? Tell me about that handsome guy first. What's his name? Are you familiar with the owner of the Haining Hotel? I have a niece who's still unmarried. How about you help me connect her with someone?"
"If I have to tie a string, I only tie it for my own children. Why would I tie it for your niece?"
"Your son has someone in his heart, doesn't he?"
"Well, I still have my niece! Besides, what's the point of having someone in your heart? What if it breaks up in a few days? By the way, Fangfang, have you met anyone with the same last name?"
"The surname 'yang' has the fourth tone, not the second?"
"Last time I heard it, it sounded like the fourth tone, and also like the second tone, so I'm a little unsure. Speaking of which, that beautiful child's name is just 'yang,' which means appearance. I guess he must have been very good-looking when he was a child, and his parents loved his looks so much that they gave him that name!"
Zhou Yang happened to hear these remarks when he passed by the two ladies.
He didn't know the two elegant women, and of course he didn't think they were talking about him. He thought there was another child of the same name whom they knew.
It looks very good, so it is called "Yang".
That’s a beautiful explanation.
However, his name "Yang" does not have such a beautiful meaning.
The year he was born, his father lost money in business and consulted a fortune teller, who said that the house lacked the element of wood and needed a living creature with the word "wood" in its body.
So, when he was born, his parents named him Zhou Yang based on his surname.
For a while, he hated the name, but later he didn't care anymore.
The City Central Hospital was close to a busy area. After walking a few hundred meters, Zhou Yang saw a large shopping mall. He walked in and picked out a mobile phone for Lin Qiyuan that was exactly the same as the previous one.
He is not short of money now, and he is generous in buying a mobile phone for Lin Qiyuan. The highest configuration one costs several thousand yuan more than the regular one, but compared with his boyfriend, it is nothing.
When Zhou Yang came back, he found that Lin Qiyuan was still awake.
The effect of the painkiller injection has worn off, so you either have to continue taking the injection or just endure it.
I fainted from the pain before, but after the operation, the pain is not much different from before.
When Zhou Yang saw him, he was already sweating profusely from the pain.
Zhou Yang felt scared when he thought of Lin Qiyuan fainting from the pain, and he started ringing the bell in panic.
The nurse rushed over and saw that the patient's family was as anxious as ants on a hot pan, while the patient, apart from being in great pain, was very calm.
"Although the painkiller injection is effective in relieving pain, it has certain side effects on the gastrointestinal tract and liver and kidneys. Are you sure you still want to give him painkillers?" asked the nurse.
Lin Qiyuan said with great effort, "No, I can bear it."
You can endure it, but prolonged pain is really hard to endure. When Zhou Yang was a child, he fell from a rockery and broke his bones. He remembered the pain for a long time.
Lin Qiyuan's condition was much more serious than his own back then, so the pain was naturally doubled.
Since Lin Qiyuan was unwilling to take the painkiller injection, Zhou Yang could only respect his opinion.
He put his hand on Lin Qiyuan's belly and massaged it slowly.
This is the pain relief method taught to him by Zhou Yang's grandmother. Pressing the acupoints near the belly button can relieve pain and help people sleep.
Lin Qiyuan's belly was flat without any excess fat, the kind that was lean and strong. Zhou pressed it, and her fingertips felt smooth. As she pressed it, she realized that her action was really like taking advantage of her boyfriend.
Although the effect was not great, perhaps because her boyfriend's care was too caring, Lin Qiyuan fell asleep without realizing it.
When he woke up, it was already dark and the room was brightly lit.
Zhou Yang was sitting on the edge of the bed, feeling a little sleepy. He saw Lin Qiyuan waking up and struggling to sit up, so he hurriedly put a pillow under him.
Zhou Yang massaged him for several hours, fearing that he would wake up from the pain, even when he fell asleep.
When he took his hand back, his fingers were so sore that he was shaking even when holding the pillow.
Lin Qiyuan felt a little regretful about letting Zhou Yang stay.
On the one hand, he regretted that he had to take care of himself day and night, which was unfair to himself. On the other hand, he was now in a rather awkward situation.
There are three urgent needs for people.
He always has to satisfy his physical needs.
In theory, since he is in a plaster cast and cannot move, he can solve his physical problems without having to get out of bed.
But Lin Qiyuan wanted to save face, especially in front of her boyfriend whom she had just established a relationship with.
Seeing that he looked pale, Zhou Yang initially thought that he was in pain again, and decided to give him an injection to relieve the pain if it really didn't work.
But seeing that he looked like he had no desires but actually wanted something, he suddenly had an idea and figured something out.
"Do you need to go to the bathroom?"
…
"Um."
It seemed even more embarrassing to pee on the bed.
"The nurse said there's a basin, so just do it on the bed." Zhou Yang placed the basin prepared by the nurse next to the bed.
"…No, I can go to the bathroom."
There are certain parts you can let your boyfriend see, but not now.
Zhou Yang tried to persuade him for a while, but seeing that he was really insistent, he had to help him to the bathroom with great effort. Fortunately, his right foot and left hand were both fine and could be used together.
"You go out first."
Zhou Yang realized later that standing in the bathroom accompanying her boyfriend to the toilet was indeed a very strange and embarrassing thing.
He was just worried about Lin Qiyuan, so seeing that Lin Qiyuan insisted, he closed the door and came out.
Two minutes passed and Zhou Yang still didn't hear the sound of water being released, and he couldn't help but feel anxious.
Could it be that the belt was tied into a knot and couldn't be untied?
Or, because I have a crutch in one hand, I can't hold that one?
Zhou Yang paced back and forth in front of the bathroom for a few steps, and finally couldn't help asking, "Do you need me to help you?"
