Chapter 10 Mr. Lin, are you alright?
Besides the female lead, the main people who led Lin Feiyan step by step to his descent into darkness were his family.
Lin Feiyan has always been a calm and steady person, so his parents prefer their lively and adorable younger son, Lin Younan. This favoritism has only intensified as Lin Younan has grown up.
So much so that when Lin Feiyan suffered psychological trauma due to his disability in both legs, his parents chose to leave him with a psychologist.
His parents had been planning for a second child since he was born, and his mother became pregnant with his younger brother shortly after his first birthday.
To be precise, Lin Feiyan has never enjoyed any favoritism from his parents in the past 28 years of his life.
Given the troubles caused by the original owner's scumbag wife, it's really understandable that the male protagonist chose to turn to the dark side.
In Ye Qingning's memory, the two of them did attend the family dinner tomorrow, and the original owner of the body flirted with Lin Younan without restraint throughout the dinner, trying to get his attention.
The direct result was that he was confined to Lin Feiyan's house for 7 days and almost starved to death in Lin's residence.
At the same time, Lin Feiyan also recorded a heavy mark on her book of sins.
Ye Qingning suddenly shivered; she absolutely would not allow such a thing to happen again.
If possible, she should take advantage of this opportunity to perform well and try to change Lin Feiyan's opinion of her further.
Thinking this, Ye Qingning pushed open the study door, smiling sweetly at Lin Feiyan's sinister and cold face.
"You dropped something." She smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll pick it up for you."
She then bent down and picked up the pens that Lin Feiyan had scattered on the ground one by one. When she put them back in the pen holder, she discovered that the ceramic pen holder, which was engraved with green bamboo, had a corner chipped off.
Ye Qingning was taken aback. In her memory, this ceramic pen holder was a birthday gift that Lin Feiyan's mother, Zhou Yun'ai, gave him when he was a child...
With a soft sigh, Ye Qingning placed the pen holder on the corner of the table, with the broken side facing out, and said gently, "Dinner's ready. It's all your favorite vegetables."
Lin Feiyan's gaze swept over the pen holder, and he responded indifferently, his tone extremely perfunctory and impatient: "Hmm."
The shard of ceramic lay at his feet; what's broken can probably never be restored.
Ye Qingning ignored the emotion in his tone and pushed his wheelchair directly to the restaurant.
Perhaps in a bad mood, Lin Feiyan ate very little for dinner, finishing his meal in just a few bites before heading straight back to his study.
Looking at his particularly lonely figure, Ye Qingning suddenly felt a pang of sadness.
In her original world, she was an orphan who didn't know who her parents were and had no one to rely on. Even the money for her schooling was borrowed from various sources.
After I started working, every month I used my salary to pay off debts. I was so envious when I saw my girlfriends calling their parents to ask for money.
Although Lin Feiyan has parents, it seems as if he would be better off without them, given how biased his relatives are.
With a slight sigh, Ye Qingning decided to cook something else for Lin Feiyan.
She remembered that Lin Feiyan's stomach seemed to be not very good, and that eating such a small amount of food would probably cause him stomach pain at night.
There were still some wontons left from before, so Ye Qingning cooked a bowl of them, added an egg drop, and garnished them with dried shrimp and seaweed. It looked delicious and appetizing.
She carried it to the study, and when she pushed open the door, the man was still engrossed in his work, looking like he was extremely busy.
Indeed, managing such a large enterprise must put him under considerable pressure.
The novel also mentions this point: the original owner would cause all sorts of trouble while the male protagonist was at work or on business trips, which eventually angered him completely.
Ye Qingning naturally decided to be sensible at this moment.
Hearing her movement, the man didn't even look up, coldly asking, "What is it?"
"I noticed you didn't eat much for dinner, so I specially cooked you a bowl of wontons. Please eat some," Ye Qingning explained.
"Leave it there." Lin Feiyan continued writing furiously, his expression unwavering.
Ye Qingning paused for a moment, placed the wontons on the corner of his table, stood there for a while but the man didn't eat them, so she finally turned and left.
She'd done everything she was supposed to do; she couldn't control whether the man ate it or not.
It's his own body, and he doesn't even know how to cherish it, so what can she do?
...
As night deepened, Ye Qingning quickly fell asleep. However, she was a light sleeper and could be awakened by the slightest sound, especially in this still unfamiliar environment.
Suddenly, the sound of a glass falling to the ground echoed through the darkness, instantly startling her awake from her bed.
The sound seemed to be coming from the next room!
Ye Qingning thought for five seconds and decided to get up and go take a look.
She knocked hard on Lin Feiyan's door when she arrived, her voice anxious: "Mr. Lin, are you alright?"
There was no movement inside the room. Ye Qingning turned the handle, and the door was pushed open.
She stepped inside and was immediately met with darkness. The room was dark and quiet, with blackout curtains drawn.
