Chapter 154 The Chu Family Invites You
On the way back to school after the event, the two of them didn't talk much.
Peng Jingpei's face remained flushed. She had said she was going to see a movie, but after watching one and a half, she had no idea what was on the screen. Her mind was filled with the image of Gu Feng kissing her.
But when she subtly hinted that she wanted to be his girlfriend, she didn't even get a clear answer.
He walked silently to the school gate, waved, said "See you tomorrow," and left without looking back.
Peng Jingpei was truly impressed by him—he flirted with her until she was caught in a limbo, then simply waved his sleeve, patted his behind, and left.
It's really unbelievable that there are such irresponsible men.
But in the end, I can only blame myself for being foolish: of all people, I had to pick the most typical "four no's" man.
When Gu Feng arrived home, he saw a police car parked outside the gate from afar.
He recognized the license plate—wasn't it the same car Chu Hanzhong drove up last night? Was Director Chu in such a hurry for a follow-up appointment? Didn't they agree to meet tomorrow night? Could it be that he's really so eager to regain his former glory?
As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, Su Man'er came out to greet him: "Gu Feng, what's wrong with your phone? Why has it been switched off?"
Gu Feng took his phone out of his pocket and looked at it; sure enough, it was out of battery and shut down.
"What, is someone looking for me?"
"It's Director Chu. He's been here for a while now, saying he has something urgent to discuss with you," Su Man'er said.
Urgent?
Kidney deficiency isn't like a cold or flu; it can't be rushed.
Gu Feng couldn't help but smile wryly as he walked inside with Su Man'er.
As soon as they entered, the restless Chu Hanzhong jumped up from the sofa, rushed over, grabbed his hand, and pulled him outside: "Gu Feng, quick, come with me!"
"Where to?" Gu Feng was completely confused.
"Xiao Ran... she's sick!" Chu Hanzhong's voice was full of anxiety.
"If you're sick, go to the hospital and see a doctor. I'm not your family's private doctor." Gu Feng naturally thought the last part to himself.
"It would be great if she were willing to go to the hospital, but the problem is she absolutely refuses to go," Chu Hanzhong said, extremely worried.
Gu Feng originally had no intention of paying any attention to that young woman surnamed Chu—he always felt that she was the mastermind behind that "molestation case."
But after thinking about it for a moment, she nodded and said, "Okay." She glanced at Su Man'er standing beside her and asked, "Sister, are the pills ready for today?"
"It's done," Su Man'er replied.
"Go and get me twenty pills."
"Okay." Su Man'er turned and went into the room. A moment later, she returned with a small, unlabeled glass bottle containing some small, shiny black pills.
Gu Feng took the medicine bottle, turned to Su Man'er and said, "Come on, you come with me too."
"Me too?" Su Man'er was taken aback.
"Stop dawdling, everyone go, everyone go!" Chu Han urged anxiously.
"Alright," Su Man'er agreed. There wasn't time to put on makeup and get dressed, but then again—this wasn't a banquet, it was a rescue mission, so there was no time to dawdle.
Chu Hanzhong was clearly extremely anxious about his daughter's safety. As soon as he got into the car, he pressed the accelerator hard and deeply, but he did not turn on the siren.
His daughter was indeed his lifeblood, but it was still a private matter.
Director Chu's consistent principle is to never use public power for personal gain.
That time with his brother-in-law Zheng Aniu was the only time he made an exception.
However, when it comes to that matter, whether it was about upholding justice or showing favoritism, it was a dilemma from the start. The current outcome may not be a bad one.
They sped along, and Chu Hanzhong, carrying Gu Feng and Su Man'er, finally arrived home after a long and arduous journey.
The family apartment allocated by the work unit is about 100 square meters. The decoration is of a mid-to-high-end style, and it is clean and tidy. It looks better than Su Man'er's room.
It's just a bit strange—wasn't it said that little vixen Chu Xinran has a sudden illness? Why is she nowhere to be seen? Gu Feng looked around and only saw Chu Hanzhong's younger brother Chu Hanliang and Chu Hansan in the room.
Upon seeing the two, Gu Feng frowned. From top to bottom, young and old, not a single member of the Chu family could please him.
But the two men's expressions clearly relaxed when they saw him, as if they had finally welcomed the organization and their savior.
"Gu Feng, you've arrived." Chu Hanliang forced a smile.
Chu Han opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing.
Although his arm was no longer injured, the shadow left by Gu Feng remained deeply etched in his heart.
It's quite an achievement that he wasn't trembling all over and ashen-faced at this moment.
Gu Feng ignored everyone else, turning only to ask Chu Hanzhong, "Where are they?"
"She's been staying in her room and hasn't gone to school for the past two days. When I asked her what was wrong, she wouldn't say; she also refused to see a doctor. I had no choice but to ask you for help."
Chu Han was both heartbroken and furious, clearly having no way to deal with his precious daughter.
Gu Feng suddenly realized—no wonder he hadn't seen this little vixen for the past two days, she was sick.
However, he deserved it. He'd get his comeuppance sooner or later for all the wrong things he did.
As Chu Hanzhong walked to Chu Xinran's door, he saw that the door was tightly closed, and faint, painful groans could be heard coming from inside.
Chu Hanzhong gently knocked on the door and said softly, "Xiao Ran, Xiao Ran, Gu Feng and his sister have come to see you."
"Don't come in! Don't come in!" Chu Xinran's panicked voice immediately came from inside.
The group exchanged bewildered glances, speechless for a moment. After a long while, she finally managed a weak voice: "Let...let my sister come in alone, okay?"
"Sister, why don't you go in and check on her?" Gu Feng suggested softly.
Women's affairs are naturally more suitable for women to handle.
Su Man'er understood immediately and nodded, feeling slightly relieved—she had thought she would only be a supporting character, but it turned out she had actually come in handy. It seems that gold shines wherever it is.
Gu Feng, Chu Hanzhong, and the others went back to the living room and sat down. Su Man'er then knocked on the door again: "Chu Xinran, hello, I'm Gu Feng's sister."
"Are you alone?" Chu Xinran asked cautiously.
"It's just me." Su Man'er glanced at Gu Feng and Chu Hanzhong sitting on the living room sofa.
A series of soft footsteps sounded in the room, and the door opened a crack, revealing Chu Xinran's haggard face.
Only when they were sure that Su Man'er was alone did they quietly let her in. Once the door closed, there was no further movement for a long time.
In the living room, Gu Feng and Chu Hanzhong sat in silence.
Since they had absolutely nothing in common to begin with, forcing them together like this naturally created an extremely awkward atmosphere.
Chu Hanliang wanted to mediate, but it seemed that nothing he said would be appropriate, so he simply shut up and drank tea with Chu Hansan in silence.
"About what happened at the hospital that day..." Chu Hanzhong began, his voice hoarse with a hint of helplessness, "Because the suspect suddenly died, all the leads have been cut off, and this case will probably have to be dropped."
"Oh," Gu Feng replied indifferently.
This outcome was already foreseen when the advisor played "guess what" with him, so hearing it now, there was no surprise whatsoever.
Even now, Gu Feng still felt that the mastermind behind this was most likely Chu Xinran, who was lying in the inner room, whether she was truly ill or trying to deceive him.
If that's the case—then were those people present involved?
However, judging from the circumstances that day, Chu Hanzhong was probably unaware of the situation. And his timely appearance that time truly saved him.
Thinking of this, he took out the small glass bottle from his pocket and handed it to Chu Hanzhong: "Take one pill twice a day, morning and evening, for ten consecutive days. If it doesn't work—then I'm sorry, you'll have to find out where Hua Tuo's grave is and see if he left you any secret recipes."
"Thank you, thank you." Chu Hanzhong accepted the gift with both hands, his expression filled with excitement.
"No need for thanks, this is what I should repay. You saved me that day, and today I'll teach you a lesson. From now on, we're even, and neither of us owes the other anything." Gu Feng's tone was indifferent, but the sense of keeping people at arm's length was crystal clear.
Upon hearing this, Chu Hanzhong gave a bitter smile.
It seems that, let alone recruiting him to be an inside agent for the Yihe Gang, even just getting along peacefully with him is as difficult as climbing to heaven.
This kid's prejudice against the Chu family runs really deep.
As they were chatting casually, a startled cry suddenly came from Chu Xinran's room—the voice was clearly Su Man'er's.
Gu Feng's heart skipped a beat. He sprang to his feet and darted to the door in a few steps. Just as he was about to break down the door, he realized something was wrong and quickly knocked on the door, asking urgently, "Sister! What's wrong?"
"It's nothing," Su Man'er's voice came from inside. Hearing that her voice sounded normal, Gu Feng felt slightly relieved, but still asked anxiously, "Are you really alright? Should I come in?"
The words had barely left her lips when Chu Xinran let out an exaggerated scream from inside: "Don't come in! If you dare come in, I'll call for help!"
Gu Feng couldn't help but chuckle: "Your dad, your uncle, your whole family are all here, who else can you call? If they could stand up for you, would they need to call me all this way?"
You've really angered me. Believe me or not, I'll teach you a lesson right in front of them.
