Chapter 49: Qin Feng, why did you abandon me?!
Next to the high school,
in a KFC,
Fang Yuan looked gloomily at Fang Yifan, who was gnawing on a family bucket.
After a while,
he finally couldn't help but ask: "Son, you don't seem to care at all about me and your mom getting a divorce?"
"How did I not care?"
Fang Yifan rolled his eyes at Fang Yuan: "Don't you see? I haven't had much of an appetite these past few days; my food intake has dropped so much..."
"You call this a small food intake?"
Fang Yuan looked at the chicken bones in front of Fang Yifan and shook his head helplessly: "Son, your mom and I agreed that after the divorce, you’ll stay with her. Do you have any objections?"
"I have no objections."
Fang Yifan shook his head and took a sip of Coke: "Anyway, you can't control me. Besides, if I stay with my mom, I can occasionally go to Yingzi’s house and mooch some seafood feasts."
"If I stayed with you, you’d call eating KFC a feast..."
"You child, you’ve already learned to be a snob?!"
Fang Yuan’s eyes widened, and he was just about to lecture Fang Yifan,
but when he thought of his own empty pockets, Fang Yuan lost his spirit.
After a while,
Fang Yuan asked in a low voice: "Then son, have you noticed anything unusual about your mom these past two days?"
"No."
Fang Yifan shook his head: "However, Aunt Song Qian has been acting a bit strange."
"Song Qian?"
Fang Yuan’s eyes widened in surprise: "Quick, tell Dad, what’s wrong with your Aunt Song Qian?"
"Nothing much."
Fang Yifan spat out a chicken bone: "It’s just that when we went to Yingzi’s house for dinner that day, Aunt Song Qian didn't have an appetite and wouldn't eat, and she kept retching."
"Retching?"
Fang Yuan immediately became interested and hurriedly asked: "And then what happened?"
"Later, I just blurted out a couple of things. You know, my mom talks all day about how hard it was when she was pregnant with me—how she retched every day, couldn't eat, and could only eat fruit, and you were too stingy to buy any..."
"..."
Fang Yuan’s face turned pale: "Don't get sidetracked, keep talking about your Aunt Song Qian."
"Oh, anyway, I just blurted out that maybe Aunt Song Qian was pregnant, and then my mom and Aunt Song Qian both hurriedly denied it, like they had colluded beforehand..."
"Then I shut my mouth so I wouldn't get scolded by my mom again."
After Fang Yifan finished speaking, he turned to the counter: "Dad, I’m not full, can you go order me ten more chicken wings?"
"Fine."
Fang Yuan immediately stood up and walked to the front desk,
while simultaneously pulling his phone from his pocket and dialing Qiao Weidong’s number: "Hey, Qiao Weidong, I have something to tell you, but you have to promise not to lose your temper."
"What is it? Go ahead, why would I lose my temper with you?"
Qiao Weidong was lying on a therapy bed getting cupping therapy, his tone somewhat lazy.
"Alright then, promise you won't lose your temper."
Fang Yuan waited a few seconds, composed himself, and then said: "Song Qian, she might be pregnant..."
"What?!"
Qiao Weidong sat up immediately,
startling the old Chinese medicine doctor next to him.
"Fang Yuan, say that again, what did you just say?!"
"I said, Song Qian might be pregnant..."
"Bullshit! That’s impossible! That’s absolutely impossible!"
Qiao Weidong was instantly overcome with anxiety and got off the bed to leave,
shouting into the phone as he walked: "Fang Yuan, where are you? I’m coming to find you right now, stay where you are! I have to get to the bottom of this!"
"Hey? Hey? Hey?!"
The old doctor chased after him,
but Qiao Weidong had already pushed the door open and left.
The old doctor took two steps in one and hurriedly shouted: "Hey, hey, my cups! My cups!"
"What cups?! I have an emergency!"
Qiao Weidong jumped into his car and yelled at the old doctor,
then slammed on the gas and rushed toward Fang Yuan’s location...
"Sigh, so much for our lunch. Qin Feng, the situation with Wang Yao in your class is very serious. The ultrasound results are troublesome; she needs immediate surgery. I’m going into the operating room..."
"By the way, tell your counselor to contact Wang Yao’s family to come to the hospital as soon as possible..."
Looking at the WeChat message Xu Qin sent before going into surgery,
Qin Feng replied: "Okay, Dr. Xu. I’ve already told the counselor. As for the ruined lunch, as long as you’re willing, we can do it anytime!"
Although his lunch date with Xu Qin was ruined,
Qin Feng
still had other dining companions.
Thus,
Qin Feng opened Yu Zhouzhou’s WeChat and sent a voice message.
Almost as soon as the message was sent,
Yu Zhouzhou immediately answered the voice call,
and said in a small, shy voice: "Hey, are you looking for me?"
"Yeah, I missed you."
For a girl as simple and cute as Yu Zhouzhou,
Qin Feng always liked to tease her, so he asked back: "Did you miss me?"
"Mm."
Yu Zhouzhou looked up at her roommates,
then responded with a blushing face.
Qin Feng curled his lips into a smile: "What does 'mm' mean? Did you or didn't you?"
"My roommates are all here~~~"
Yu Zhouzhou replied in a small voice.
Qin Feng continued to ask: "Is that so? Does that mean they missed me?"
"No."
Yu Zhouzhou shook her head: "It was me."
"What was you? What’s wrong with you?"
"I..."
Yu Zhouzhou’s face turned even redder, and she lowered her voice: "Qin Feng, I missed you."
"What? I didn't hear you!"
Qin Feng’s smile grew wider.
Yu Zhouzhou couldn't help but pout, humming in shame and embarrassment,
before whispering: "Qin Feng, you’re bad!"
"Hahaha."
Qin Feng laughed, then asked: "How’s your foot? Can we have lunch together?"
"Ah?"
Yu Zhouzhou was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly repacked the food her roommate had brought for her,
put on her coat, and hopped out of the dormitory: "Where are you? I’ll come find you!"
"Alright, wait for me downstairs, I’ll be there soon."
After Qin Feng finished speaking,
he turned to borrow a wheelchair from the infirmary and pushed it toward the girls’ dormitory.
Before long,
the two met.
Yu Zhouzhou sat in the wheelchair with her head down and a blushing face,
while Qin Feng, without any hesitation,
faced the curious, envious, and even suggestive gazes of many girls,
and pushed Yu Zhouzhou toward the cafeteria.
Then,
that Sang Zhi, wearing a white high school uniform on top and a black pleated skirt reaching her knees on the bottom,
with air bangs in front and a ponytail in back,
with exquisite features but a very obedient and cute appearance,
suddenly stood in front of Qin Feng and Yu Zhouzhou,
and then,
pointed her finger at Qin Feng,
and shouted loudly with tears streaming down her face: "Brother Qin Feng, why did you abandon me?! Why don't you want me?!"
"What the...?"
Qin Feng was stunned, looking at Sang Zhi with a slight frown.
Yu Zhouzhou was confused and looked up at Qin Feng,
while the surrounding female students and seniors
all stopped in their tracks,
their eyes flashing with the light of gossip,
and they all took out their phones, aiming them directly at Qin Feng, Sang Zhi, and Yu Zhouzhou...
