Chapter 1321: Qi Zhenbai’s Warning
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Right up until they reached the restaurant, Feng Yuanlin still hadn’t digested the bombshell that Shuyan had dropped. He didn’t know if it was because of the shock or something else, but he was still a bit stupefied. When he saw Qi Zhenbai, who was already waiting on the side, he didn’t react.
Chi Shuyan once again felt that Brother Feng was quite unlucky. Fortunately, Brother Feng and Qin Qing had already broken up. Otherwise, who knew how Brother Feng would have been screwed over. However, that woman was supposedly ‘pregnant,’ but Chi Shuyan had yet to see any signs of it. Then, where did Brother Feng’s offspring luck come from?
For some reason, when Chi Shuyan thought of this and of how the black Buddha statue had something to do with Qin Qing, she felt a little uneasy. However, given her understanding of Brother Feng, he was now quite vigilant against Qin Qing. She was just afraid that the woman had too many tricks up her sleeve, and Brother Feng wouldn’t be able to guard against her. There was even someone behind her who was deliberately helping her. That was what Chi Shuyan was most worried about.
But the atmosphere was good at that moment, so Chi Shuyan couldn’t dampen the mood. Besides, if Qin Qing was fixated on Brother Feng, it would be useless no matter how Chi Shuyan exhorted him.
While Chi Shuyan was lost in thought, the cold and tall man opposite her had already walked over to her side. She didn’t even know when he tugged at her hand. When she came back to her senses, she saw that she was already sitting next to a certain man. Brother Feng was sitting opposite him, and the man was talking to him. When the first dish was served, he picked up some food with his chopsticks and placed it in her bowl.
Chi Shuyan stared. When did they become so familiar again with each other?
Qi Zhenbai didn’t seem to notice his wife staring at him at all. His tone was gentle and considerate as he asked her if the food was to her liking. For a moment, Chi Shuyan had the urge to curse out loud.
At that moment, Feng Yuanlin finally came back to his senses. He was a little hungry and ate a few mouthfuls. After chewing absentmindedly, he realized that the food tasted very good, and he immediately chimed in, “Shuyan, the food here does taste good. Hurry and try it!” He then asked Zhenbai what this restaurant was called.
Qi Zhenbai replied indifferently, “Deluxe Pavilion!”
Feng Yuanlin nodded. “The taste of this food is worthy of this name!” After a pause, he suddenly said to Chi Shuyan, “Shuyan, don’t worry. Ever since we broke up back then, we’re strangers to each other now, or just passersby at most!”
Seeing that Brother Feng didn’t have the slightest bit of fondness for Qin Qing and was quite open-minded, Chi Shuyan finally heaved a sigh of relief.
In fact, Brother Feng’s attitude toward Qin Qing had been quite clear before, but when Chi Shuyan thought about how Qin Qing had been Brother Feng’s wife in her previous life and had caused Brother Feng to die young, she was always worried that Brother Feng would always be entangled with Qin Qing.
Speaking of which, one of her greatest blessings when she was with Qi Zhenbai was getting to know Brother Feng. After spending so much time together, she felt just as close to Brother Feng as Qi Zhenbai did, more so than even with Zhu Bocheng, the first person she met.
She didn’t want anything to happen to Brother Feng.
Qi Zhenbai wasn’t in a hurry to interrupt. He was sharp, shrewd and had a high IQ. He guessed that this matter was most likely related to Qin Qing, but his expression remained unchanged and steady. There was even some envy in his eyes as he looked at Feng Yuanlin. He could tell that his wife really cared about Yuanlin. Thinking of his wife’s cold attitude toward him recently, he couldn’t help but feel a little sour.
However, he firmly believed in the character of this friend of his, and knew that Yuanlin wouldn’t eat the grass next to his nest. Otherwise, he really wouldn’t be able to sit still when he saw how close the two of them were.
Chi Shuyan didn’t know that the extremely calm man next to her was having such complicated thoughts at that moment. She couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to him. Last night, however, he had at least gallantly sent her back to the villa, so Chi Shuyan didn’t deliberately ignore him. When he spoke to her, she would respond a few times. When he didn’t speak to her, she treated him like he was invisible.
Compared with the ignorant Chi Shuyan, Feng Yuanlin, as the outsider, could see most of Zhenbai’s complicated and jealous expression. He couldn’t help but laugh inwardly when he looked at Zhenbai’s face. He never thought that Zhenbai would view him as an enemy one day.
To be honest, he had always felt that Zhenbai was too cold and had no personality. He felt that when Zhenbai found a wife in the future, it would probably be either through a marriage arrangement or it would be someone who was easy to control and would listen to him, which was very in line with Zhenbai’s character. Now that he had met Shuyan, the change in him was extraordinary and simply far exceeded Feng Yuanlin’s expectations. Even if he did think that his friend’s personality would change, he never thought it would be to this extent.
At the thought of how this friend had actually lost control because of jealousy and kicked Feng Yuanlin’s cousin hard enough to land him in the hospital, Feng Yuanlin felt that his friend was completely hopeless and had completely fallen into Shuyan’s hands.
In order to verify it, Feng Yuanlin deliberately picked up some food for Shuyan.
Sure enough!
As soon as he placed it in her bowl, Zhenbai immediately gave him a cold look, and his originally calm eyes became sharper and more vigilant. Feng Yuanlin couldn’t help but smile.
Although Chi Shuyan was a little surprised, she didn’t think much of it. Her lips curved up and she thanked Brother Feng. She picked up the food, but before she could eat it, a pair of chopsticks appeared in her bowl and took out the food which Brother Feng had picked up for her, before throwing it on the table. Qi Zhenbai didn’t feel any guilt over his actions. His face was still very calm and collected, but his gentle tone sounded a little overbearing and cold in the ears of others. “My wife doesn’t like to eat this!”
When he said this, his hawk-like eyes were still narrowed sharply as he stared at his friend in front of him with a hint of warning in his eyes. Feng Yuanlin didn’t get to watch a show, and was instead intimidated by Zhenbai’s sharp gaze.
Fine!
This murderous possessiveness!
Fortunately, his thoughts about Shuyan had always been pure. He had always treated her like a sister, and didn’t have any other thoughts. Otherwise, he felt that he would probably die a tragic death! This friend in front of him was definitely someone who would put his wife over his friend.
To be honest, Feng Yuanlin was quite puzzled. He had often encountered beautiful and capable girls like Shuyan, so why didn’t he have any other thoughts about her?
To be honest, Shuyan was definitely the most capable girl he had ever met in his life. It was simply too difficult not to be moved by such an outstanding person.
In the end, Feng Yuanlin could only blame it on the first day he met Shuyan. She was his best friend’s wife, and he treated her like his sister-in-law. He would never poach his friend’s wife.
When Feng Yuanlin saw Zhenbai’s possessive look, he gloated and wanted to laugh. His mind raced and he blurted out, “Zhenbai, when are you going to woo her again? Don’t just put on airs and declare your possessiveness in front of me. Don’t you know how good Shuyan is? If you don’t woo her, don’t blame me for gloating when your wife flies away!”
