"Hello, Xiaofan..."
"Uncle Liu."
"Hey, calling so late, have you co back?"
"Yes, I've been back for a while."
"Oh, are you with Siyan now? You're not playing truth or dare again, are you?"
"No, the thing is, Siyan is drunk, and I'm planning to take her ho. However, so friends thought I might have bad intentions towards Siyan, so they called you to confirm."
"What? Is that true? Give him the phone, I'll talk to him..."
"No need, just saying a few words to Siyan will do."
"Okay."
The phone was on speaker, and everyone could hear Liu Zhenghua's voice. Of course, Zhang Yuxuan could easily claim disbelief over a random call, but Liu Siyan was right there.
Slowly, Xiaofan moved towards Siyan, gently handing over the phone.
A pair of resentful eyes glanced at Xiaofan, evidently intent on opposing him, but she said nothing.
"Don't make trouble..."
Xiaofan's tone was serious, and this command made Liu Siyan obediently pick up the phone.
"Hello, Dad... Yes, I'm drunk, yes, I'm coming ho now. Don't worry."
The call ended. Liu Siyan rolled her eyes at Xiaofan and handed the phone back.
"Are you satisfied now? Now my dad knows I'm drunk. Aren't you making him worry for nothing?"
"No, with here, he'll be at ease. Let's go. Oh, by the way, President Zhang, can you move aside now?" Xiaofan turned to Zhang Yuxuan and said.
At this point, Zhang Yuxuan had no excuse to persist in blocking them. He forced a smile and said, "Haha, so it was a misunderstanding. I apologize for earlier, Siyan, as you know, I was just worried about you, nothing more."
"Thanks, I'm glad you hit him." Liu Siyan shifted her footing, trying to keep heading out. Her body tilted and she fell directly into Xiaofan's arms.
Xiaofan sighed inwardly and lifted Liu Siyan horizontally into his arms.
"Let go, what are you doing..."
"Shut up. Keep arguing, and I really won't care about you."
"You... fine, don't care, who wants it anyway." Despite her reluctance, her sulking voice was noticeably quieter.
Just like that, the two walked out the door under Zhang Yuxuan's unfriendly gaze.
Ye Shaolong was also full of anger, but couldn't do anything about it. He couldn't understand how this poor boy knew Liu Siyan, and their relationship seed even better than his own.
"Young master."
"Go, investigate Ye Xiaofan thoroughly, the clearer the better." After Ye Shaolong and the others left, Zhang Yuxuan imdiately called a guard over.
"Understood."
After the guard left, Zhang Yuxuan looked towards the outside, his fist clenched: I don't care what your relationship is, Liu Siyan is definitely mine.
Outside, Liu Siyan remained motionless, allowing Xiaofan to carry her into the car. She seed to be asleep, perhaps feigning sleep to avoid awkwardness.
At this mont, Liu Siyan was completely at ease, thanks to the alcohol. Her usually sluggish brain relaxed and slipped into tranquil silence.
Indeed, only by his side could she sleep so peacefully.
The car started slowly, driving steadily towards the Liu Family. After about three kiloters, Xiaofan suddenly slowed down and stopped by the roadside. Lowering the window, he spat out a mouthful of dark blood. His entire expression was extrely painful. His eyelids seed to beco heavy.
What happened? Is this body going to fail?
Taking out his phone, Xiaofan dialed another number.
"Hello, what's the matter so late?"
"Grandpa, my body is having so issues. Earlier, I fought with soone and instinctively tried to mobilize my Inner Strength, then experienced severe pain in my chest. I just spat out so blood and feel slightly better..."
"What's wrong with you? Didn't I tell you not to carelessly mobilize the energy in your Dantian? How do you feel now?"
"I don't think it's too serious, just feels like an internal injury but not very severe."
"So it's confird then..."
"Huh?"
"The Inner Strength within you hasn't disappeared, but all the tiny ridians in your body are broken. If you forcibly mobilize the Inner Strength, it can't run through the ridians, leading to self-inflicted damage..."
"What? Then why didn't you tell earlier?"
"I wasn't certain at the ti, after all, your case is the first I've encountered. I couldn't make an accurate diagnosis, let alone treatnt. Now I'm telling you, don't ever mobilize Inner Strength again, otherwise, backlash from the Inner Strength, at best an injury, at worst crippling or even death. Rember."
"Alright."
"Why did you fight with soone just now?"
"Hm? It's nothing, for a girl..."
"You... never mind, be careful. Go ho and give yourself a few acupuncture points, clear out the injured stagnant blood and you'll be fine."
"Understood."
Hanging up the phone, Xiaofan let out a long breath. Turns out, the Inner Strength within him wasn't gone. The power left by Grandpa Ren still existed; it's just that his damaged ridians couldn't feel the Inner Strength, making the Dantian feel hollow and unreachable.
But now, with or without it, is there any difference?
Half an hour later, Xiaofan successfully returned Liu Siyan to the Liu Family. It was Liu Zhenghua who opened the door.
Seeing Xiaofan again, Liu Zhenghua nodded at him and led Xiaofan upstairs, opening Liu Siyan's room for him.
Gently putting Liu Siyan down and pulling the covers over her. Looking at her thin, delicate face, a strong sense of guilt welled up inside.
"Brother Ye, don't go."
Brother Ye? Who? Is she talking to ? Or talking in her sleep? Or maybe a new friend?
Brother Ye? Why does this address feel so familiar?
Xiaofan couldn't figure it out for a mont and felt too awkward staying in Siyan's room any longer, so he descended the stairs.
"Uncle Liu, I bought so stuff in the car. Tomorrow morning, could you brew so for her to drink, then her head won't hurt. I'm leaving now."
"Xiaofan, did you and Siyan have a falling out?" Liu Zhenghua suddenly spoke.
"No, it's a long story. In short, I'm sorry to her. Uncle Liu, I'm sorry."
"No, I trust your character. Since you can't explain so things, let's leave it at that. I only have one daughter, I just hope she can be happy, so don't bully her."
"Uncle Liu, actually, I..."
"Eh, I'm not asking for your promise now. I don't quite understand your young people's world; you don't need to explain anything to . The main thing is for Siyan to understand. That child has been like a different person lately. Thank goodness, you're finally back."
"Uncle Liu, rest assured, I absolutely won't let Siyan continue to drift."
"Mm. Also, why don't you change her sleepwear for her. She's drunk, wearing those clothes to sleep, it'll restrict her circulation."
"What? ?" Xiaofan opened his mouth in surprise, looking at Liu Zhenghua.
