Late night 10 o’clock.
Hospital.
VIP sickroom.
Chen Shu An sits down on his bed, his head and backside are covered with thick gauze. The soup seems to spray all over his body.
The doctor says that he suffers the second degree burn. He needs to take a good care of it so it’ll not leave any mark.
The doctor also says that luckily they handled it well when it happened earlier, if not it’ll be more serious.
Chen Yi comes inside and look at her only baby son looks like a glutinous rice wrapped in leaves. She feels heartbroken and holds his hand and chokes with sob.
“Shu An…..”
He is her only kid, he is her lifeblood, how can she not feel heartbroken for him?
Tai s.h.i.+ Yun always dreams to marry Chen Shu An, so of course she knows Chen Yi too.
Chen Yi cries and Tai s.h.i.+ Yun just pa.s.ses the tissue to her. She acts to be obedient and understanding.
“Aunty, don’t cry anymore. If you cry, Shu An will be sad too.”
Chen Yi wipes her tears and chokes: “Shu An, don’t worry, your papa will take revenge for you!”
The time she answered the call about his son’s incident, she directly calls Dong Zheng and let him find a way for fairness for her son.
Chen Shu An’s eyes turn dark the time he heard the word “Papa”.
“Who asks you to find him! Whether I’m alive or dead, I have no relations.h.i.+p with him, I don’t need his help to do anythign!”
Chen Shu An is emotional, he moves and it stretches his wound. He is in pain.
Chen Yi notices it and says to him: “Okay, okay, Okay, we will not let him to handle this one. Don’t be angry.”
Then she says ruthlessly: “But that waiter, he unexpectedly hurt you this way, I’ll not just let him be good. I’ll let him feel it too!”
This words makes Tai s.h.i.+ Yun’s hand s.h.i.+vers, the cup of tea in her grip starts to sway and spill.
Chen Xi looks at her and asks: “s.h.i.+ Yun, what is it?”
Chen Yi likes this kind of girl. She is a good one and comes from good family background.
But her son doesn’t like her.
Tai s.h.i.+ Yun smiles: “I’m okay. I want to pour a cup of tea for auntie. But I am so careless taht I spilled it. Let me pour you another one.”
Chen Yi feels her to be so great.
Chen Shu An is unsatisfied with her mother’s att.i.tude toward Tai s.h.i.+ Yun. He waves his hand to the silent Ye Qing Xin and calls her: “Xin Xin, come here.”
Ye Qing Xin comes over.
She is so thankful for his sacrifice so she stays and hopes that she can help him.
Chen Shu An then pulls her hand and introduces her to his mother: “Ma, she is Ye Qing Xin, my…. my junior.”
Ye Qing Xin is calm.
Chen Shu An is disappointed.
Chen Yi looks at Ye Qing Xin, she is examining her.
Her gaze makes Ye Qing Xin feels uncomfortable.
After a while, Chen Yi smiles: “You are Ye Qing Xin? I’ve heard Shu An mentioned you several time. It’s the first time we meet, I think you are so beautiful.”
Chen Shu An is beaming with joy, the unbearable pain on his body is gone.
“Ma, Xin Xin is not only beautiful, but she is also so talented. She is the top-student in our school. She always gets scholars.h.i.+p.” He is so proud of her.
Chen YI smiles and nods. She doesn’t say anything.
If Chen Shu An is aware of detail, he will noice that now his mother’s eyes are cold.
For two days, except for going to cla.s.s, Ye Qing Xin always stays in the hospital to take care of Chen Shu An.
The restaurant has compensated him for huge sum of money. The boss of the restaurant fires the waiter and manager and also personally comes over to visit him. He begs for forgiveness and promises that as long Chen Shu An comes to the restaurant, he will no need to pay for the bill.
So the matter settles down.
“Now are you satisfied?”
That night eight o’clock in the parking lot of the hospital inside a black Rolls- Royce, Dong Zheng hugs Chen Yi and asks her about it.
Dong Zheng is a fifty years old man, he is somewhat fat, but he has quite proper face, he doesn’t have a lot of wrinkle.
Dong Zheng kisses her.
Chen Yi blames him and pushes him: “Our son is laying down now in the hospital. You have no hear, you unexpectedly think about doing this!”
“I handled those thing for our son, shouldn’t you reward me?”
Chen Yi says: “If you want the reward, then we should wait until he is getting better. I’m in heartbreaking mode now that he is great pain. How can you are not worried about him?”
Dong Zheng smiles and hugs her: “Okay, okay, I’ll listen to you. Of course I’m worried about my own son.”
Chen Yi bits her lips and tries to probe him coquettishly: “Shu An is twenty one years old now, he even never goes to the Dong family house, how can I know that you care about him?”
This makes Dong Zheng turns cold.
He lights his cigarette and smokes it.
Chen Yi is panic, she smiles and moves closer to him. She turns the topic: “I’m hungry, bring me to eat something?”
This man is too unpredictable. It’s been twenty years that they’ve been together, she seems to still unable to guess his emotion.
He throws away the cigarette and kisses her lips again. He says: “in the future don’t say immature remarks.”
Tong family’s house is not a place that everyone can get in.
Chen Yi controls herself and nods.
Dong Zheng smiles t her.
They both go to the most popular restaurant in Jing City.
That restaurant is part of Bo Wei company.
Jing Bo Yuan invites several his business partners to dine there too.
After the dinner, unexpectedly he b.u.mps with Dong Cheng and Chen Yi.
Jing Bo Yuan looks at two of them, his voice is cold and greets Dong Zheng: “Gu Fu (Uncle = husband of paternal aunt).”
Dong Zheng laughs: “I and Jing Si has divorced each other, I’m not Big Boss Jing’s Gu Fu anymore.”
Jing Bo Yuan’s expression remains calm and says: “I’m sorry, I forget it. Before I just met current Madame Dong upstairs, who is gathering with other madame. Current Madame Dong should be happy to see you here.”
‘Current’, this word is clearly make Chen Yi feels embarra.s.sed.
Chen Yi has been with Dong Zheng for twenty years, ten yeas ago Dong Zheng divorced Jing Si, but he didn’t marry Chen Yi. He just married another lady. This has created jokes and shame for Chen Yi.
Chen Yi’s face turns really bad, but she doesn’t dare to be angry.
Jing Bo Yuan is too powerful. Dong Zheng is also afraid of the consequences, moreover her with her status as mistress?
It’s just weird for her. She never be in contact with Jing Bo Yuan. She doesn’t know why he purposely attacks her.
Jing Bo Yuan finishes his words and just ignores them. He comes out with a group of people.
Dong Zheng’s face is also very bad.
He isn’t sure whether Jing Bo Yuan’s words are true or not. He hesitated and isn’t sure to leave or go up.
If he goes up and his wife notices it, she will make great trouble with it; if he leaves, his lover will lose her face.
Chen Yi notices his hesitation and smiles: “Husband, I suddenly want to eat roasted duck. If not let’s go to Quan Ju De?”
Very understanding and considerate.
Dong Zheng strokes her hair satisfyingly: “Okay, husband will take you there.”
Ps:
Chen Shu An is Dong Zheng’s illegitimate son.
Dong Zheng is Jing Si’s ex-husband.
Jing Si is Ye Jun Dong’s second wife.
