Xi Fengling’s heart constricted and she clenched her fists instinctively.
“It seems like I didn’t get the wrong person,” she said.
“I saw a girl who looked a little similar to me some time ago. Her name is Feng Qin, so I went to investigate. I really found something. Later on, I went to the Feng Family to acknowledge my mother.”
Xi Mao stared at her in a daze.
His lips trembled.
He was speechless for a long time.
His eyes were red and filled with emotions.
Yan Jinyu patted Xi Fengling’s shoulder and gestured to the others.
Hence, other than Xi Fengling and Min Rufeng, everyone else left the room. When they left, Huo Siyu, who was walking at the back, even closed the door.
Outside the door, Yan Jinyu asked Huo Siyu, “Have you had lunch?”
Huo Siyu shook her head. “Not yet. I went to pick him up when I found out that Brother had come to the capital. I was going to school to look for you for lunch.”
“Then let’s go to the main building to eat something first. This...” She glanced at the closed door. “I’ll leave this to Meimei and Feng first.”
Yin Jiujin reached out to hold Yan Jinyu’s hand and said to Huo Xuan, “Young Master Huo, this way please.”
His attitude was not very friendly.
However, he was still polite.
Huo Xuan glanced at Yin Jiujin with a complex gaze.
He was rather unwilling to believe that the person he had treated as an opponent for many years was like this.
He looked at Yin Jiujin with an indescribable gaze.
Yin Jiujin didn’t care what Huo Xuan thought of him.
He was still jealous as usual.
When they arrived at the main building, Aunt Cheng had already prepared lunch.
Yan Jinyu had eaten in the canteen before, so she wasn’t hungry. However, she still sat down with them.
She had some soup.
During the meal, Huo Siyu couldn’t help but ask, “Beauty Yu, in that case, that person is Sister Fengling’s...”
“It seems so.”
“Then, doesn’t Sister Fengling’s father...”
Silver Wolf was Ghost Slaughter’s former trump card. He was originally the person most qualified to fight with Liu Guang for Ghost Slaughter’s inheritance rights!
It was said that they had betrayed Ghost Slaughter back then and were cleaned up under Liu Guang’s lead.
Calculating the time, Silver Wolf’s betrayal happened not long after Sister Fengling was brought to Ghost Slaughter Island.
“Beauty Yu, did Silver Wolf really betray Ghost Slaughter back then?”
Although she asked that, Huo Siyu already had an answer in her heart.
Up until now, Huo Xuan had already slowly figured out what was going on.
He had heard of Silver Wolf too.
If he took what happened in the room just now into account and analyzed the situation as a whole, it was very easy to get the answer.
She mentioned Water City, the Feng Family in Cloud City, and the rea name of Silver Wolf—Xi Mao.
The exact details were not difficult to guess.
“Did Silver Wolf fall out with Ghost Slaughter Island because of Sister Fengling? The timing matches perfectly.”
Yan Jinyu took a sip of soup. “If I’m not wrong, it should be.”
“I wonder why Liu Guang hasn’t killed him for so many years.” This was something Yan Jinyu had been puzzled about when she had doubts about Xi Mao’s identity from the beginning.
Liu Guang was not a sentimental person. Since he wanted to kill Xi Mao, he would definitely not keep Xi Mao alive until today.
Why should he keep Xi Mao alive and torture him day and night, making him suffer?
There seemed to be no need for that, either.
Since Xi Mao had the same status as Liu Guang in Ghost Slaughter back then, he definitely knew many secrets of Ghost Slaughter. Liu Guang keeping Xi Mao alive would undoubtedly leave a huge hidden danger for himself.
As she was thinking, there were increasingly more food in the bowl and plate in front of her.
She looked up at Yin Jiujin, who was putting food into her bowl.
“You don’t have to worry about this. If you have any questions, can’t you ask them later? Have some food first. I saw that you didn’t eat much in the canteen just now.”
At the mention of the school canteen, Yin Jiujin’s felt jealous again.
Yan Jinyu smiled and started eating.
She really didn’t eat much in the canteen just now. Someone came to confess midway. Later on, they appeared in the canteen one after another. How could she continue eating?
However, her appetite was not big and she was almost done eating. She was not hungry.
Seeing that she was eating, Yin Jiujin picked up some more food for her.
Yan Jinyu felt exasperated. “Brother Nine, I’m almost done eating. You don’t have to put food in my bowl anymore. Eat it yourself.”
However, she didn’t see Yin Jiujin glancing at Huo Xuan imperceptibly every time he picked up some food for her.
He was showing off.
Although Huo Xuan’s heart did ache a little, he mostly felt that Yin Jiu was so childish.
He suspected if this childish person in front of him was really the only opponent whom he had ever admired in the business world all these years and had always wanted to find a chance to defeat?
He felt a little disillusioned.
Not to mention what the outside world thought of Yin Jiujin, Yin Jiujin was still a respectable opponent to him.
But now...
He did not want to fight with such a petty and childish person anymore if there was no need for it in the future.
In fact...
He looked at Yan Jinyu.
In fact, he had lost too.
He had lost right at the starting line from the beginning.
It was rare for him to lose something that he really cared about. What else could he gain even if he won?
It was only just some money.
Oh, and a lot of trouble.
Because with Yin Jiujin’s petty nature, he would definitely think of a way to take revenge.
Just like before, when he had finally made Yin Jiujin suffer once, Yin Jiujin created a lot of trouble for him in return, making him so busy that his feet couldn’t touch the ground.
“Then, you’ll pick them up for me,” Yin Jiujin said to Yan Jinyu.
“Alright, alright. I’ll get them for you.” It was just to pick up some food. It was not a big deal.
Yan Jinyu picked up her chopsticks and picked up a few dishes for him.
Seeing that she was picking up all his favorite food, Yin Jiujin’s heart softened, and the jealousy in his heart instantly dissipated.
The young lady was usually lazy. She couldn’t be bothered to remember what she liked, but she had unconsciously remembered what he liked to eat.
He popped the food in the bowl in front of him into his mouth.
The corners of Yin Jiujin’s lips curled up slightly.
Then, one of them picked up the food while the other focused on eating.
The atmosphere was harmonious and no one could blend in with them.
In other words, the others were...
The others were unnecessary.
Anyway, that was what Huo Siyu felt now.
She looked at Huo Xuan.
It was another day that she felt sorry for her brother.
However, seeing that Huo Xuan continued to eat his food as if he didn’t see the two of them being so mushy, Huo Siyu felt relieved.
Fortunately, her brother did not have a strong relationship. Even if he was finally interested in someone, he could still control his feelings.
However, she didn’t know that although Huo Xuan didn’t show much on his face, the food actually already tasted rather bland to him.
He lowered his eyes to hide the complicated emotions in them.
He ate slowly and elegantly.
Not long after the meal, they were about to go out for a walk to eat when someone came to report that Min Rufeng wanted them to go over.
***
When they went over, Xi Fengling had already brought a chair over and sat down by the bed.
Min Rufeng stood at the side.
Looking at them, they should have already chatted.
Their emotions had obviously calmed down.
“Little Yu.”
“Beauty Yu.”
Min Rufeng and Xi Fengling looked over when they heard the door open.
Min Rufeng’s expression was normal. Although there was nothing wrong with Xi Fengling’s expression, Yan Jinyu, who knew her well, knew that her emotions were in turmoil now.
There were no tears in her eyes, but she gave Yan Jinyu the feeling that she was crying.
Seeing Xi Fengling like this, Min Rufeng actually felt very uncomfortable too.
If not for the fact that others were present, he would have hugged her and comforted her long ago, instead of just standing there and rubbing her head from time to time to comfort her.
That was why he was in such a hurry to get someone to call Little Yu and the rest over.
He wanted them to ask whatever they wanted to ask so that he could bring his girl back to comfort her.
“How’s the situation?” Yan Jinyu asked first.
She was asking Min Rufeng.
Min Rufeng knew that she was asking about Xi Mao’s health.
“It’s already basically stable. Don’t you believe in my medical skills? As long as he’s still breathing, I can save him.”
“This young man’s medical skills are indeed good.”
After chatting for a while, Xi Mao already knew their identities and Min Rufeng and Xi Fengling’s relationship.
He didn’t detest Min Rufeng like the usual father-in-law and his son-in-law relationship.
On the contrary, he was very grateful to Min Rufeng.
He knew very well what kind of place Ghost Slaughter Island was.
Only people like them, who had experienced the hardships of surviving in such a place and emerged to live outstanding lives, knew.
And the friendship that came from a place like Ghost Slaughter Island was not something ordinary friendship could compare to.
He was very grateful that Min Rufeng had protected and accompanied Xi Fengling all these years.
Moreover, after understanding the situation, Xi Mao also felt that Min Rufeng was outstanding enough.
Not everyone could have such medical skills at such a young age.
In the early years when he was trapped, those people guarding him would also chat, so he had also heard about the current four killers.
However, he did not expect that one of them would be his biological daughter!
Back then, he suspected that his daughter had been taken away by Ghost Slaughter Island. He had already settled down. However, he had no choice but to reappear and take the initiative to let Liu Guang, who had been pursuing him for many years but had never found his whereabouts, discover his traces.
It was to confirm if his daughter had been taken away by Ghost Slaughter Island.
However, before he could confirm it, Liu Guang sent a large group of people to kill him and even didn’t hesitate to personally appear.
Finally, it ended with Liu Guang being seriously injured by him and he ended up in Liu Guang’s hands.
“I’m much better now. Don’t worry, young lady.”
“I heard from Ling’er about some things that happened to you all these years and already know your identity. I didn’t expect that the person who was rumored to have made Liu Guang suffer greatly would be a young lady.”
The so-called rumors were also what he heard from the people guarding him.
“Thank you for taking care of Ling’er all these years. I heard from Ling’er that if it wasn’t for you, she might have long... Anyway, thank you.”
“You’re regarding me as an outsider. Meimei and I are family. Besides, you only know that I’ve saved her, but you don’t know that she has saved me many times.”
Xi Fengling glanced at her. “Did I? You’re the one who are always saving me.”
However, Yan Jinyu nodded seriously, “Yes, so Meimei, you have to listen to what I say in the future. After all, I saved your life. You still owe me your life.”
Xi Fengling’s lips twitched.
This was the truth, but why did it sound so strange to her?
She was about to say something when Yan Jinyu didn’t give her a chance.
She said to Xi Mao, “Since you’re awake, I have something to ask you.”
“You’re welcome, young lady. Ask whatever you want. You’re Ling’er’s friend. As long as I know, I’ll definitely tell you everything.”
“Feng Li was locked in the basement with you previously.”
Looking into Xi Mao’s surprised eyes, Yan Jinyu continued, “I heard that he was transferred away about four years ago. You know where he was transferred, right?”
