Chapter 95 The present world is really disgusting

"To be more specific, Qi Yan, you haven't been in a good state lately."

Shen Yunshu sat behind his desk, crossed his long legs, twirling a black signature pen with his fingers, and asked with some amusement, "Is it because your project has entered the clinical trial stage that you are starting to relax? Or is it that my eldest nephew is so bad that he has caused you so much trouble that you can't even concentrate in the laboratory?"

"Director, stop joking." Qi Yan was originally checking Shen Xiliu's physical report. Hearing Shen Yunshu's words, he showed a helpless expression, "It's my own mental state that's not very good recently. It has nothing to do with what you said."

For some reason, he has been having nightmares every day recently. When he wakes up, his chest feels stuffy, his whole body is covered in cold sweat, and even his brain feels dizzy and heavy, making it difficult for him to control his emotions.

Because both bedrooms were used by grandparents and mother, Qi Yan originally planned to continue sleeping in the living room of his home, but the sofa was not comfortable enough, and if he sleepwalked, he might accidentally hurt his family members.

When Chen Xiliu reminded him explicitly and implicitly that he could sleep across the street, Qi Yan couldn't help but move to the guest bedroom at her boyfriend's house. Since they were a couple now, it should be okay to use the guest bedroom temporarily, right?

It's not like we haven't lived together before. We've slept in the same bed during our susceptible periods and when we were drunk. We've kissed, hugged, and done temporary markings. Except for the last step, there's nothing else to do. But considering that my family lives across the street, I can't help but control my image to avoid being misunderstood...

"Really?" Shen Yunshu did not continue to express his opinion, and asked another question with interest, "Speaking of which, you seem to have met my brother some time ago... um, Shen Xiliu's real uncle, right? How was it? Is the eldest brother of our Shen family a bit pretentious and difficult to get along with?"

“…”

What a familiar tone. You Yi also likes to use this tone to talk about his father. I didn’t expect Shen Yunshu to do the same. From this perspective, rather than saying that You Yi is the child of the Shen family master, it is better to say that he is more like Shen Yunshu's child. Qi Yan heard You Yi say that his little cousin, from a certain perspective, is more like his father than he is...

Thinking of this, Qi Yan was silent for a while, and asked: "Director, what you said sounds similar to You Yi, could it be that you took the wrong child?"

"Have you watched too many melodramas?" Shen Yunshu just raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he was not surprised at all that he suddenly said this.

"Although everyone says that my son is more like my brother and my brother's son is more like me, don't you have to pay attention to their ages? My son is only thirteen years old, and You Yi is eighteen years old this year. We crossed time and space to take the wrong child, right?"

"Forget it, stop talking nonsense. I'll give you two days off so you can have a good rest. Your mental state is terrible. If you enter the laboratory, I'm afraid you will blow up my precious research institute." Shen Yunshu asked Qi Yan to quickly take his things and leave.

Qi Yan didn't stay any longer and turned to leave. When the door closed, Shen Yunshu touched his chin and asked, "Are you trying to avoid the main issue?"

He thought for a moment, picked up the phone on the table and made a call. It took a long time for the other party to answer.

"If you want money, go find Xi Liu. He is the person in charge of your research institute. Don't go past him and come to me. Okay, goodbye."

As soon as the other party answered the phone, he finished speaking quickly and skillfully, and was about to hang up when Shen Yunshu called him: "Hey, don't hang up so quickly, I'm not here to ask for money!"

Upon hearing this, the head of the Shen family, who was about to hang up the phone, paused, slowed down, and gave him a chance: "You don't want money? Okay, tell me. Don't say useless words."

"It's like this." Shen Yunshu leaned back against the chair, leaning back with the chair, and resting his long legs on the desk. "I want to ask you, have you met Qi Yan before? How did you feel? Did you not show the arrogance of a rich lady from a wealthy family? Did you throw money at people to leave?"

“…”

There was silence on the other side.

Patriarch Shen said, "Goodbye."

"No, no, no, I'm just kidding." Shen Yunshu laughed twice, and his expression became serious. "I won't talk nonsense with you anymore. I want to know what's going on between Shen Xiliu and Qi Yan?"

His voice gradually became calm. He stretched out his hand to open the drawer of the desk, took out the folder inside, and flipped through a few pages: "I originally thought that the two of them had only just met for a short time, but Shen Xiliu was already in love. He shouldn't have such a deep obsession with Qi Yan, and he had to be hospitalized several times..."

"After all, I am also his 'doctor', so I did some research. I didn't expect that I could trace it back to sixteen years ago." Shen Yunshu was a little emotional. Sixteen years, such a long time, there really was something wrong everywhere.

He stared at the two photos of Qi Yan's childhood in the folder. There was nothing special about the one on the left. At most, it was cute and delicate. His facial features, which had not yet fully developed, showed how handsome he would be when he grew up. His peach blossom eyes were particularly innocent and his smile was sunny and bright.

The one on the right has the same face as the one on the left, but it gives people a completely different feeling. The face that should have been innocent is cold and bored, with a deep sense of fatigue...

Why are there such big changes in photos of the same person taken at the same time? Both of these photos were taken when Qi Yan was seven years old, only a few months apart, less than a year.

Originally, considering the problems that had occurred in his family at that time, Shen Yunshu thought that Yi Hongli was too ruthless and killed both mother and son, causing the child to have psychological trauma. But looking back now, he always feels that something is wrong.

"If it weren't for the recent incident at the home of Shen Xiangting's boyfriend, I might not have discovered some details, but I might not have realized that you were involved." Shen Yunshu turned to the next page, "It was you who helped them hide their tracks, helped them find their biological parents, and even asked He Sheng to go over and help Xia Yunqie treat her illness?"

"...Yun Shu." The head of the Shen family called his name, "You have to change your habit of asking questions until you get to the bottom of it."

Shen Yunshu disagreed: "I can't change it in this life. I like to seek truth from facts. Only by clarifying things can I find the right way to deal with them."

"Doctors have to prescribe the right medicine for the right disease. I've studied him for so long, but I still can't figure out the cause of his illness. Don't you think it's ridiculous?"

"What you said sounds even funnier." Patriarch Shen said calmly, "What kind of doctor would investigate every experience of a patient to death? Now you even want to study his inner thoughts. Is Christian's mind not enough for you to study?"

“…”

After all, the two sides were too familiar with each other. The head of the Shen family easily choked Shen Yunshu with one sentence: "...Hang up."

"Why did you hang up?" The head of the Shen family said slowly, "I also want to talk to you about the situation over there. Xi Liu gave me a good idea to airdrop you over there. It's rare that you like to ask about various things. I heard that it's finally over over there. The child's father is safe and busy. But judging from his intelligence, if I send you over now, I guess Christian will still be able to happily create many opportunities for you to study..."

“Beep—”

Before the other party could continue speaking, Shen Yunshu hung up the phone, blocked the call skillfully, and calmly dialed another number: "Hello? Have you found the person I asked you to look for?"

"Still on a business trip?"

Listening to what the other party said, Shen Yunshu frowned: "No matter what, just tie him back. I want to see him the day after tomorrow."

"No matter what means you use, remember, it will only work until the day after tomorrow."

…

It was said to be a two-day holiday, but how could Qi Yan really have a holiday for his own project? He still went to school and research institute as usual. Seeing this, Shen Yunshu didn't say anything, but just asked a few questions casually.

"Doctor Zhai?" Qi Yan was a little surprised when he heard Shen Yunshu's words, "So you, the director, know him too?"

"Of course I know him. After all, he is an internationally renowned figure." Shen Yunshu smiled meaningfully, giving people a strange feeling. He did not interfere with Qi Yan's work, but just asked a casual question. He did a little bit of work only after the research for the day was finished.

Obviously it seemed nothing, but when Qi Yan returned home and sat in the living room with Shen Xiliu, the other party noticed something was wrong: "Qi Yan, what are you thinking about?"

Shen Xiliu approached him with some concern, carefully observing Qi Yan's expression. He had been frowning since he came back, as if he was troubled by something.

"Nothing, I was just thinking about the problems I encountered during the experiment today." Qi Yan smiled at him habitually without showing any worry. This was an expression that Shen Xiliu was very familiar with. Qi Yan was always like this to the people he cared about, not wanting to let them worry about him.

Originally, Qi Yan treated him the same way, but as their relationship gradually deteriorated, he never treated him like that again.

Now, Qi Yan even comforted him, "Don't look so worried, I'm fine. If you really have something to ask, I want to ask you one more thing, why can't we go into that room?"

Qi Yan pointed to a room that had never been opened. He had been curious about it for a long time, but they were not very familiar with each other at the beginning, so he did not ask. Later, as their relationship progressed, he also considered respecting each other's privacy, so he did not ask too many questions.

"Bluebeard's room?" Qi Yan pondered.

Shen Xiliu's heart tightened, but his expression was not nervous: "...You are deliberately changing the subject. It's obviously me who is asking you."

"If you're curious, just take the key and have a look. The key is in the drawer of my room." Shen Xiliu said calmly, "Now it's your turn to answer my question."

"When you put it that way, it sounds even more like Bluebeard." Qi Yan smiled, "Don't worry, it's really just an experimental problem. Didn't you fire the director's assistant? And several researchers are gone too. The director said this is your responsibility, so I have to help out a little more..."

He smiled and talked about the things at the research institute, as if there was really no problem. When Shen Xiliu heard about Shen Yunshu, he subconsciously frowned.

This elder had always been disrespectful, had no morals, and loved to compete with others. In the previous life, Shen Xiliu was almost a mortal enemy of him. It was not until he later learned from him what had happened during that period that Shen Xiliu no longer had the energy to target Shen Yunshu, because the price of doing something wrong was too tragic...

[Want to die?] 】

Shen Yunshu pulled the desperate and painful Shen Xiliu off the bed, not caring at all that he was a patient who had just been rescued, and spoke in a cold tone.

[Chen Xiliu, there is a price to pay for doing wrong things. You have made a mess of things, and now you want to escape everything by committing suicide? 】

Just thinking about that time, Shen Xiliu almost couldn't breathe. He stretched out his hands to hug Qi Yan's waist tightly, hiding his inner panic: "...Can you accompany me tonight?"

Qi Yan felt that this was not a good idea, but when he saw his expression, he nodded unconsciously. After nodding, he realized that it would be better for him not to stay in the same room with others, but Shen Xiliu didn't care at all and didn't want to let him go, so he had to give up in the end.

I hope nothing goes wrong tonight. This is what Qi Yan thought. His mental state has been getting worse recently. He took some medicine, but the effect was not good.

I had wanted to talk to Shen Xiliu face to face about the tracking and surveillance, but after meeting Shen Xiliu's uncle, I felt a little weird, so I kept putting it off and couldn't speak...

He didn't know if it was because the pair of golden pupils were too weird, or because the songs Youyi sang were too brainwashing, but they always made him think of some strange things.

Tonight should have been a good night. Chen Xiliu slept peacefully, much more peacefully than when he fell asleep from exhaustion after every action in his previous life.

Just in the early morning, Chen Xiliu suddenly felt a strange feeling in his neck.

He opened his eyes subconsciously, but before he could adapt to the darkness, he saw a vague outline staring at him. Familiar warm fingers slowly touched his neck, stroking the sensitive skin that suppressed the neck ring and the surrounding area.

"Qi Yan...what's wrong?" Shen Xiliu's voice was still hazy with sleep. He allowed the other party to touch his vitals without any resistance.

"woke up?"

A cold voice sounded, it was a familiar voice, but it was a bit chilling. Shen Xiliu suddenly woke up and stared at Qi Yan closely.

He was looking at him, and his vague outline seemed somewhat mysterious and dangerous, bringing a strange yet familiar atmosphere.

"Huh, did they actually mark you?"

In the darkness, Qi Yan laughed, and it was impossible to tell his emotions, but the next sentence was enough to make Shen Xiliu fall into a cold cave.

“It’s disgusting.”
