Upon hearing Zhu Xiaozhu’s words, Ling Chen felt much more at ease. All along, Zhu Hong had been an insurmountable barrier between him and Zhu Xiaozhu. Zhu Xiaozhu wanted him to spare Zhu Hong, not wanting to see either of them get hurt. Because of this, Ling Chen had to stay away from Zhu Xiaozhu to prevent Zhu Hong’s matters from affecting the two of them.
Now that Zhu Xiaozhu had finally let go, Ling Chen was naturally pleased. In the future, he wouldn’t have to worry about anything when facing Zhu Hong.
After seeing Zhu Xiaozhu off, Ling Chen took a short rest and then had Qiu Yong help him with the discharge procedures.
Outside the hospital, a large group of reporters was waiting, eager to interview Ling Chen and get firsthand information. To avoid trouble, it was better to go ho and recover.
Returning ho, Yang Qingling had already learned about Ling Chen’s situation from the TV. Initially, Yang Qingling wanted to visit her son in the hospital, but Ling Chen knew she would worry, so he called her first thing before going to the hospital to let her know he was fine.
"Son, I know what you’re doing outside. Just because I don’t ask doesn’t an I don’t know; I just don’t want to worry too much. Watching the live broadcast today, you have no idea how worried I was. Your grandparents are getting old and can’t handle such shocks. I didn’t even dare to tell them about this."
"Mom, don’t worry, it was an accident this ti. I will be more careful in the future," Ling Chen promised.
"Right! Son, what’s the deal with that girl nad Zhu Xiaozhu? I saw on TV..."
Before Yang Qingling could finish, Ling Chen hastily interrupted her and said, "Mom, don’t ask so much. Xiaozhu and I are just ordinary friends." Ling Chen was really tired of explaining this and didn’t want to waste his breath.
"Mom, I am a bit tired and will go to my room to rest." With that, before Yang Qingling could ask more, Ling Chen returned to his bedroom.
Watching the closed door, Yang Qingling sighed helplessly. Although she was his mother, so things were not easy to ddle in. After all, relationships are the most troubleso and hardest to handle.
A day passed.
Ling Chen originally wanted to rest at ho for a few days, but he had only stayed for one day before guests began arriving continuously, all coming to visit him.
The first to arrive was Tang Shiyun. Upon learning that Ling Chen was injured, Tang Shiyun, who was performing out of town, imdiately took the earliest flight back to East Sea City to visit Ling Chen after her comrcial performance ended.
Besides Tang Shiyun, there were also Liu Xiyao and Xia Mutong. Although Officer Xia is quite strict at work, in her eyes, Ling Chen is not only a friend but also a friend with a special relationship. So this ti, she ca to visit Ling Chen as a friend.
In just half a day, Yang Qingling had received several beautiful won at ho who had co to visit her son. Each was a rare beauty with different temperants, making Yang Qingling look at her son’s charm with new eyes.
Knock knock knock!
Hearing the knocks outside the bedroom, Ling Chen casually responded, "Co in!"
As the door opened, Hu Fei walked in carrying several bags, his round chubby face full of smiles.
"Hey!" Ling Chen smiled and said, "Fatty, what wind blew you here? Tsk tsk! What good stuff have you bought?"
Hu Fei placed the bags down with a grin, taking out a few bottles of erguotou and so cold dishes, placing them on the table.
"What’s this for?"
"I heard you’ve been in a bad mood these past two days, so I specially ca to have a drink with you. Co on, let’s have a toast!"
After gulping down a glass of erguotou, Ling Chen looked at Hu Fei and asked, "Fatty, how did you know I was feeling down?"
"Isn’t it obvious? I understand won better than you do. But I’m smarter than you; I just have fun with won without getting too emotionally involved, saving myself a lot of trouble. Unlike you, entangled with so many won, only to end up a ss. Look at you, Nanrong Wanqing has broken up with you, Leng Feifei has gone abroad, and your thing with Zhu Xiaozhu has beco well-known. Even if you clear things with Zhu Xiaozhu later, when you’re with other won, how do you think people will see you? As a playboy, disloyal, and eventually as a scumbag in others’ eyes."
Hearing this, Ling Chen’s already troubled mood worsened.
Picking up his glass, Ling Chen asked, "Fatty, do you really think I’m a scumbag?"
"Not really, you haven’t played with won’s feelings, but with so many entanglents, have you ever thought about whom to choose?"
"Hey! Don’t talk nonsense. What do you an by entanglents? I am just ordinary friends with them." Ling Chen imdiately corrected.
"Ordinary friends?" Hu Fei chuckled mischievously. "Do you really think I don’t know? Your relationship with Xia Mutong isn’t that of just ordinary friends, is it? Besides Xia Mutong, I won’t even ntion Leng Feifei, and then there’s the porridge girl. Dare you say you are just ordinary friends with them?"
Hu Fei’s words left Ling Chen without a rebuttal. Admittedly, he had indeed had more than platonic relationships with these won. Truth be told, whenever he faced them, he found it hard to maintain the mindset of an ordinary friend.
Reflecting on this, Ling Chen couldn’t help but sigh, "Fatty, listening to you, I do feel like a scumbag."
"Alright! Don’t think too much about it. If I were you, I would stay away from those won." Hu Fei said: "You’re all confused yourself, not clear about your feelings. Since that’s the case, you might as well pull yourself out of it and temporarily ignore these things. Focus on managing the base and put your mind on other things. Over ti, let everything take its course. You must rember, feelings cannot be forced; what is yours will be yours, no matter how much ti passes, she will be there waiting for you."
Ling Chen nodded in agreent. Hu Fei was right; the won were precisely what was troubling him now.
"Fatty, I didn’t expect you to be a master of emotions," Ling Chen decided to set aside these vexing matters for now, just as Hu Fei suggested.
"Of course!" Hu Fei said proudly, "I’ve dealt with not hundreds, but at least dozens of won; I’ve got way more experience than you."
Pfft!
Ling Chen didn’t hold back, retorting, "All those won you deal with are paid for. How could you have the nerve to brag in front of ? Alright, enough about that, how are things at the base?"
At Ling Chen’s ntion of business, Hu Fei put down his glass and said, "Everything’s normal now. The leftover forces of the God Organization in East Sea City have mostly been cleared up."
