Chen Keren dragged Yi Duanfang out of the Peach Blossom Resort and slammed him against the car window, which caused the latter to let out a painful groan.
Yi Duanfang turned around. Seeing that Chen Keren and the other two surrounded him with fierce looks, he asked sullenly, “What do you want to do? Why do you look as if you were going to eat me?”
Hearing this, Wang Weixi gave him two slaps and responded exasperatedly, “Are you insane? Even if you are not happy, you can’t hide and avoid seeing us. Do you know that we were crazily looking for you? Even though we were not worried about you, what about your parents? Do you know that they have given us several calls in the past few days?”
Yi Duanfang stroked his head awkwardly and said, “I’m sorry…” Before he could finish his words, he began to scream blue murder because Chen Kexin pinched him.
Chen Kexin rarely got mad, but now she puffed out her rosy face while glaring at Yi Duanfang. Seeing this, Wang Weixi immediately put on an appreciative expression because he felt his wife was so cute at this moment, while Yi Duanfang was shocked for he did not expect that Chen Kexin could be furious like that.
“Yi Duanfang, you don’t deserve to hear ‘Sister Duanfang’ that I call you so kindly. You knew that Weixi and I had a quarrel, but you did not care about us. You’re a heartless guy. Do you know how anxious we were after you left? Even when we were making love, we were thinking about you. Do you know that?”
…
Except for Chen Kexin, the other three were stunned and felt as if they had fallen on the ground, spat out blood and almost died on the spot.
“Are you idiot…” Yi Duanfang rolled his eyes toward her. He had been sad, but now his feelings had disappeared because of her last sentence. Anyway, hearing the couple were reconciled, he finally felt relieved.
Finishing her words, Chen Kexin reached out her hands to pinch him as hard as she could, causing the latter to jump up because of pain.
Finally, Chen Kexin felt that she had worked off her anger and stopped torturing him.
Hence, among the three, Chen Keren was the only one that had not vented her spleen.
Chen Kexin said very thoughtfully, “Keren, be quick. Sister Duanfang, whom you’ve worried about, is here. Come and scold him to release your bad feelings.”
Yi Duanfang and Chen Keren stood there, looking at each other. Although they did not flip as they did in the Peach Blossom Resort, indescribable feelings rose in their hearts.
Wang Weixi helplessly signalled his wife to stop talking. Chen Kexin sensibly shut her mouth.
The storm-like revenge Yi Duanfang had been waiting for did not come. Chen Keren only said in a flat tone, “I’m tired, let’s go.”
After that, she pushed Yi Duanfang away, opened the door and got into the car.
The three people outside the car looked at each other.
Chen Keren rolled down the window and said to Chen Kexin who stood there. “Elder Sister, get in.” From beginning to end, she had not glanced at Yi Duanfang.
At this moment, Yi Duanfang suddenly felt suffocated. He knew that Chen Keren was really angry with him and she might be also disappointed in him. However, he thought that he might be just narcissistic. Although he found that he had a special feeling for her, it did not mean anything. “No matter whom I love, that person will not fall for me, right?”
“Kexin, go ahead. I’ll be back with Duanfang.” Wang Weixi immediately said to Chen Kexin.
Chen Kexin shot him a worried glance. As Wang Weixi responded with a gentle smile, she nodded in relief, saying, “I got it.”
Then she got in the car. Before the duo took the car, Chen Keren had driven away.
Wang Weixi glanced at Yi Duanfang, delighted to find that complicated feelings were revealed on his face. Yi Duanfang stared at Chen Keren in a totally different way and his eyes radiated a flicker of suppressed tenderness and guilt.
“Let’s go.” Wang Weixi patted his arm and said softly.
Yi Duanfang nodded. Then the two got into the car and left.
“Where is your car?” Suddenly, Wang Weixi asked curiously.
Hearing this, Yi Duanfang hemmed and hawed.
Seeing his flustered look, Wang Weixi frowned and asked, “What happened? Where is your car?”
At this moment, he was imagining whether Yi Duanfang gambled away his car.
Yi Duanfang touched his head and unintentionally revealed a bruise which had been covered by his long sleeve.
Wang Weixi happened to see this bruise. He grabbed his friend’s arm and asked with concern, “What happened? What is this?”
He quickly rolled Yi Duanfang’s sleeve up before Yi Duanfang could struggle. Finally, he saw there was a large bruise on Yi Duanfang’s fair arm. Although three plasters covered it, some parts of it were obvious.
“What’s wrong with you? What happened?!” Wang Weixi asked anxiously.
Yi Duanfang withdrew his arm embarrassedly and pretended to be relaxed, saying, “You found it. I had changed the plasters and used the odourless ones before I went out. Really, how did you see it? Tee-hee~”
Wang Weixi said with a serious look, “Do you think it’s an appropriate time for you to laugh? I asked you what happened to your arm. Is there any injury on your body? What happened?”
Yi Duanfang subconsciously curled up and seemed afraid that Wang Weixi would see something.
Wang Weixi frowned. When he realized that his movement had exposed his purpose, Yi Duanfang quickly sat up straight and said calmly, “None. Just this.”
The very thought of what Chen Keren and Chen Kexin had just done to Yi Duanfang, Wang Weixi could not help but feel a little distressed. Without saying anything, he uncovered Yi Duanfang’s clothes. Yi Duanfang said in a panic, “What are you doing? Weixi… I said that I’m fine!” He immediately tried to cover his belly with his clothes, yet his strength was not as great as Wang Weixi’s.
Wang Weixi widened his eyes in astonishment. He saw a white bandage on his belly, stained with a hint of blood. There were bruises around the bandage.
He stared at Yi Duanfang with a grim look. The latter finally gave up defending himself and lowered his head like a child who had made a mistake.
Wang Weixi sighed, “Tell me. Don’t let me keep asking you.”
Yi Duanfang knew that Wang Weixi had got furious, but he was unwilling to talk about the incident because he felt it was terrifying to recall that night.
“Alas, isn’t it common for a man to get minor injuries?” Yi Duanfang said perfunctorily.
Wang Weixi furrowed his eyebrows. Yi Duanfang stuck out his tongue and replied, “Well, let’s go. Be quick, or we won’t know where Chen Keren will go. Aren’t you afraid that she would sell your silly wife Kexin?”
Wang Weixi fixed his eyes on him and asked, “Tell me or not?”
Yi Duanfang looked at him hesitantly.
“OK, I’ll go to ask Maniac,” Wang Weixi said irritatedly and was about to get out of the car.
“Don’t, don’t go. I can tell you!” Yi Duanfang immediately said. He knew that Maniac would overstate his case and said he had suffered double injuries.
Wang Weixi stared at him and did not give him a chance to hesitate.
Yi Duanfang rubbed his fingers and pouted, saying in a low voice, “Actually, I had a car accident on that day.”
“A car accident? What happened? Why are you so careless?!” Wang Weixi got fired up when hearing the two words—car accident.
Yi Duanfang scratched his head and said in an embarrassed tone, “That night… I was in a bad mood, so I drank some wine… and then I wanted to relieve my bad feelings…” He said while observing Wang Weixi’s expression. As he expected, the more he said, the tighter Wang Weixi’s eyebrows would be. In the end, Wang Weixi’s face became livid.
“Who knows… I just wanted to go for a ride… but I failed to control the car and hit a big truck…” Yi Duanfang added cautiously.
Wang Weixi said flatly, “Go on.” It sounded that he was not mad about it. However, Yi Duanfang knew that he was boiling with rage. The angrier he was, the terribly calmer he would be.
Yi Duanfang continued with fear, “Fortunately… fortunately, I quickly swerved, so I didn’t suffer serious injuries. I bumped into Maniac at that time. Then… I was afraid that you would worry about me, so I hid myself.”
When he estimated that Yi Duanfang had told all he needed to know, Wang Weixi sneered three times. He turned his face and glared at Yi Duanfang, saying, “Car accident? You’re afraid that we would worry about you, so you hid? What else? Minor injuries?”
Yi Duanfang nodded in terror. He feared the angry Wang Weixi most.
Wang Weixi nodded and roared, “Yi Duanfang, are you insane? Who will not call his friends to report his situation when encountering such an accident? You hid and even turned off your phone? Are you an idiot? Don’t you know that many people worried about you when you disappeared?”
Yi Duanfang bowed his head and did not refute anything.
Wang Weixi was raging and continued to scold him. “And, is this a minor injury? Turn around. Let me check your back!”
Yi Duanfang turned around obediently.
Wang Weixi picked up his clothes. As he expected, there was a wide bandage on his back. Maybe because Chen Keren had pushed him violently, blood had been oozing from the wound.
“Yi Duanfang, is this a minor injury? Have you become silly? Ah? Have you? Tell me!”
Yi Duanfang only smiled but gave no response.
Wang Weixi said furiously, “Do you know who was the most anxious? Not Chen Kexin and I. You’re a fool!”
Hearing this, Yi Duanfang turned and looked at Wang Weixi with a surprised look.
Wang Weixi sighed helplessly and said, “Keren, she has been worried about you and asked her people to inquire about your news. Today, she went to the company to pick me up and then we came here together. Do you know that she didn’t go to work and stayed at home all day?”
Yi Duanfang’s mouth was shaped in “O”. He stared at Wang Weixi in surprise and said with an unbelieving expression, “Don’t tease me. I started to feel a sharp pain in my injuries because of being shocked by your words.”
Wang Weixi was speechless. He shook his head and said, “Can’t you really see through it?”
“What should I see through?” At this moment, Yi Duanfang felt his heart racing. He was looking forward to an answer, but he feared that he would be disappointed.
Hence, before Wang Weixi could speak, Yi Duanfang immediately said, “OK, don’t say it. I know it’s my fault. I’ll apologize to her later, isn’t it OK?”
Wang Weixi originally thought that this was an opportunity to tell Yi Duanfang Chen Keren’s feelings for him. He did not expect that this guy would wear an impatient look, so he unhappily shut his mouth and started the car.
Out of guilt, Yi Duanfang turned his face to see the view outside the window. His injury started to ache faintly. He frowned but endured the pain silently.
“Let’s go to the hospital. We can set our mind at rest after you have a medical check. Did you hear me?” Wang Weixi continued.
Yi Duanfang said casually, “No, I don’t want to go to the hospital. The doctor said, it’s just a surface injury, and I didn’t hurt my face, so you don’t need to worry.”
Wang Weixi responded in a flat tone, “No.”
Yi Duanfang turned his face and looked at Wang Weixi with imploring eyes, saying, “No, I hate going to the hospital.”
The long-lost coquetry made Wang Weixi tremble.
Wang Weixi rolled his eyes and said, “Okay, but you have to obey my order. I’ll change the gauze for you after returning to my house. OK?”
Yi Duanfang nodded and said awkwardly, “OK, thank you.”
“We’re bothers, so there is no need to say thanks between us.” Wang Weixi said while rolling his eyes.
Yi Duanfang felt warm in his heart. A faint smile lifted the corners of his mouth and he did not say anything further.
