93. Hao Nan’s die-hard fan is due to be released from prison

“Even if you do not give me money, I am still going out. At worst, I just will not come back. He said he would support me for the rest of my life...” Amid the quarrel, the girl abruptly shoved open the door and stormed out. But after only a couple of steps, a dark blur flashed past her in front of her face, like some huge rat had shot by in a streak of black light.

The girl suddenly let out a piercing scream, then collapsed to the ground clutching her leg, crying out in pain.

“Mom! Mom!”

Her mother rushed out at once, and with a pale, frantic face, hurried her to the hospital.

Only after they had gone did Chen Sheng slowly emerge.

That shadow just now had been him.

“With an injury like that, she should be bedridden for a month...” Chen Sheng glanced at his right foot. He had kicked the girl a moment ago.

This time, she had not bullied his sister; she had only bullied two of Chen Youyou’s friends. But with a person like her around, a girls’ dormitory could become no better than a grain of filth dropped into a pot of clear porridge.

Besides, sooner or later she would clash with his sister. Chen Youyou never hid anything from him, so Chen Sheng knew her temperament very well.

That girl was far too kind-hearted, and she always liked to stand up for others.

Then Chen Sheng headed toward the hospital where that girl had been taken.

After all, there was still one more.

Her boyfriend.

At the hospital, Chen Sheng waited patiently for quite a while before he finally saw the girl’s boyfriend.

He had slipped away from the others who came with him while the girl’s mother was paying the bill. He was indeed just a youth, about Chen Youyou’s age, but he wore earrings and had his hair permed and dyed, carrying himself like a streetwise thug.

When Chen Sheng saw that the “main culprit” had arrived, he decided to give the pair of lovebirds a chance to lie in the same bed together.

He took one step forward, vanished in an instant, then returned just as quickly. It looked as if Chen Sheng had not moved at all, yet by then the door to the girl’s ward stood wide open, and her boyfriend was already on the floor clutching his leg and crying out in pain.

As with her, his leg was broken.

“Come to think of it, by this year, the die-hard followers of Brother Haonan who were not shot dead should already be out of prison by now...” Chen Sheng withdrew his gaze and muttered expressionlessly before turning and walking away.

As long as there were no obstacles in his path, his speed had already reached the level of near-instant movement, and at such velocity, ordinary surveillance cameras could not hope to capture him.

...

“Old Chen, what kind of mischief have you been up to?”

The moment he opened the door, Chen Sheng heard that question. Though he knew she was only teasing him, his heart still gave a jolt. After all, he really had been up to no good, and he could not help feeling a little guilty.

So he hastily pretended to be calm. “No, I just went out for a walk. Look, I brought something back for you.”

As he spoke, Chen Sheng took out the things he had prepared in advance.

Two cups of hot milk tea he had bought on the way.

With his speed, he had naturally gotten home in no time, and the temperature of the milk tea had barely dropped at all.

“Thanks, bro!”

At the sound of his voice, Chen Youyou immediately ran over happily. Then, after glancing at the two cups of milk tea, she turned and asked, “Sister Youxin, which one do you want?”

Though Yu Youxin did not look any older than her, Chen Youyou called her “sister” without the slightest pause.

After all, in Chen Youyou’s eyes, her brother was already well past the age for it. If he wanted to be an old cow eating young grass, then so be it.

“You choose first. I’m fine with either.” As she spoke, Yu Youxin glanced at Chen Sheng. She could sense the change in his aura, and she also noticed the faint layer of white frost on the coat he had just taken off.

It was obvious that Chen Sheng had run back from somewhere very far away.

“Then I’ll take this one.”

Yu Youxin picked up the other cup. She could smell flavor when she ate, and she could also eat and drink just like a normal person, so taste was not really a concern for her.

“I’m going to change my coat.” After saying that, Chen Sheng headed for the bedroom.

After all, his bedroom was now occupied by two girls.

Last night, Chen Sheng had tried to get the two of them to sleep on the floor together; if that did not work, the sofa would have been fine too. But the moment they heard him suggest it, the two of them acted with uncanny tacit understanding, rushed back into the bedroom, and shut the door.

When he entered the bedroom and opened the closet, casually taking out a coat, he found that his sister had also come in.

She was walking toward him, holding the milk tea in both hands.

“What is it?”

“Bro, how long have the two of you been together?” Chen Youyou asked in a low voice, her little face full of excitement. Chen Sheng was especially familiar with that look in her eyes.

Because he looked exactly the same whenever he was gossiping, his eyes burning with the strange light of gossip-fueled curiosity.

“Do not go around saying that. She and I are not in any sort of relationship.” Chen Sheng said seriously, his expression slightly stern.

“Then why is Sister Youxin staying here with you?” Chen Youyou asked with obvious disbelief. If they were sleeping in the same place, how could there be nothing between them? No one would believe that.

“I do not know either.” Chen Sheng shook his head.

“You did not ask?” Chen Youyou was a little shocked.

“Mm.” Chen Sheng nodded. He liked gossip, but he would not gossip right in front of the person involved.

“Then how did you meet her?”

“She used to be a patient at the hospital, and I happened to be her attending physician.”

“Bro, from what I know, people in your line of work are not supposed to have close day-to-day contact with patients, are they?” Chen Youyou’s gaze toward Chen Sheng instantly turned suspicious, as though she were looking at some scoundrel who deceived innocent girls’ feelings.

Chen Sheng understood that look at once, and flicked her on the forehead. “What on earth are you thinking?”

“Is it not true?”

“Although no one at the hospital knows who she is, and I have never met her parents, every time the director sees her, he behaves like a grandson.” Chen Sheng said, “She recovered and was discharged before. But then her family driver dumped her here and left her alone. So, do you understand what I mean now?”

“I get it, bro. Is Sister Youxin the illegitimate daughter of some big shot?”

“I do not know, but there is certainly no shortage of the kind of wealthy-family drama you see on television.” Chen Sheng gave a slight shake of his head.

“Then Sister Youxin is far too pitiful. Maybe her illness was brought on by some stepmother or vicious relatives of hers.” Chen Youyou seemed quite indignant on her behalf, her expression slightly heated.

“All right, go get yourself ready. I’ll take you both out to have some fun later.” Chen Sheng smiled. After all, Chen Youyou did not come here often, and because of his work and the distance from home, he only returned once during the long holidays.

Their time together with their parents was brief and scattered, something most people of his generation could never avoid.

“Then why are you still standing here, bro?” Chen Youyou pointed at the pajamas she was wearing.

Chen Sheng rolled his eyes and walked straight out.
