Ning Feng didn't understand.
He and Chu Yu had only met once and were not close friends.
Given their identities and their relationship with Jiang Wan, the two should naturally have a sense of mutual attraction.
Moreover, he also showed goodwill to her and Yun Shuchang, and did not do anything excessive when they were together.
Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any problem. We should be at the level of nodding acquaintances, more than strangers but not quite friends.
However, the aura emanating from Chu Yu was not reassuring.
It was fear.
A fear that baffled him.
If Chu Yu were just someone he had no other connection with, Ning Feng wouldn't care.
He didn't care what other people thought, no matter where the fear came from.
But as Jiang Wan's teammate, Ning Feng had to figure out the reason.
So he asked directly:
"If I have ever offended you, I apologize and please don't mind."
"If possible, I hope you can tell me what happened back then."
"If not, I would like to know why."
You need to give me a reason for this reaction.
Without much pretense, he directly asked the somewhat flustered Chu Yu a question.
They are not enemies, so there's no need for such secrecy.
Often, as long as you speak openly, most problems can be resolved smoothly.
After a moment of silence, Chu Yu realized that his attitude towards Ning Feng was not very polite.
She had experienced the feeling of being suspected by others even though she hadn't done anything wrong, and it wasn't pleasant.
After hesitating for a moment, he said:
“You have never offended me, and there has been no conflict between us, it’s just that…”
He spoke haltingly, but Chu Yu's hands did not stop moving at all.
She skillfully disinfected, treated, and applied medicine to Ning Feng's wounds, and finally wrapped them with bandages.
"However, there's something about you that frightens me."
That unsettling feeling, that feeling of being seen through.
From your perspective.
Chu Yu himself couldn't describe the feeling. After speaking, he felt that his words were not very convincing and pursed his lips somewhat uneasily.
He'll definitely feel like I'm just giving him the runaround.
But to her surprise, Ning Feng didn't dwell on it; instead, he nodded thoughtfully.
"Really? Is that so? I understand now. The problem might be with me."
Do you understand?
Chu Yu: ?
What do you understand? You understand?
Without giving Chu Yu a chance to panic, Ning Feng, having finished bandaging his wound, pulled his arm out of her grasp and stood up abruptly.
After shaking it slightly, he lowered his sleeve, nodded to Chu Yu, and smiled:
"Now that you're here, I'll leave your captain in your care. I'll be leaving now."
"And please don't have any conflicts with Jiang Wan because of me. I hope you can always get along well."
My relationship with Chu Yu isn't particularly important, but if it causes any rift between them, things would get rather awkward.
"No! I won't have any conflict with Sister Wan! She, she's a very good person."
"She doesn't usually follow orders, but she's a very gentle person, everyone..."
With a nervous reply, Chu Yu looked up and met Ning Feng's calm eyes.
She instinctively wanted to dodge, but she forcibly suppressed the urge and looked back with pursed lips.
The two stared at each other silently, the only sound in the room being Margaret's constant thud against the bed...
"...I see, then I'm relieved."
After watching calmly for a while, Ning Feng laughed and said:
"Then goodbye, Miss Chu Yu."
With a smile, Ning Feng walked towards the door. As he passed Margaret, he nodded to her, his eyes filled with amusement.
It's time to leave, otherwise Margaret might come after me when she wakes up.
Also, it's best if the culprit doesn't show up at the scene, otherwise some things won't be clear...
This is absolutely not an act of fleeing from justice.
After leaving Margaret's ward, Ning Feng went straight to the bathroom, unwrapped the bandage on his arm, and threw it into the trash can.
hiss hiss hiss...
Like a release from restriction, the originally slow-growing granulation tissue began to grow wildly and rapidly, returning to its original state in just a few seconds.
Ning Feng was fully aware of the fire poison attached to Margaret's teeth due to her red dragon bloodline.
As blood was injected into her body, Ning Feng's body was also infused with a scalding liquid—
The Red Dragon's Fire Poison.
It sounds scary, but it doesn't actually work.
Ning Feng, a member of the demon lineage, possesses a bloodline with immense resistance to fire, rendering him unable to unleash its full power.
If he hadn't been deliberately suppressing it, the wound on his arm would have healed long ago thanks to his regenerative abilities.
With his hands resting on the table, Ning Feng looked at himself in the mirror, trying to find the part of Chu Yu that frightened him in the false reflection.
"What exactly is the problem?"
"Is it because of her eyes that she always avoids eye contact with me?"
Aside from the final, courageous eye contact that seemed designed to prove his bravery, Chu Yu consistently tried to avoid eye contact with Ning Feng.
His dark eyes looked deep and calm, but Ning Feng couldn't find anything frightening about them.
