Chapter 13: In A State Of Shock

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After walking out of the hospital for a few steps, Qin Yiyi turned her head to look at the people following behind her.

Her gaze landed on a face that was as clear as flowing clouds. Her heart was filled with a rare surge of patience.

“Why are you following me?”

Wasn’t everything done? That kid’s life was also saved.

She had also confirmed the things that she wanted to confirm. Thinking of this, even Qin Yiyi couldn’t help but pinch the space between her brows.

She did not expect that the person surnamed Yang was actually the descendant of her Second Senior Brother!

Before her, the old man had raised three disciples. After she went over, the old man said that this was fate between her and him.

Just like that, she directly became the old man’s last disciple.

The first three were all senior brothers, much older than her. In the words of outsiders, her old man and her three disciples practically raised her as their daughter.

Later on, her Second Senior Brother’s life and death were unknown after an accident.

He disappeared without a trace.

But who would have thought that she would be forced to return to the world with a bit of her original spirit, and the so-called fated person she met first was actually the descendant of her Second Senior Brother?

This matter… was a little annoying.

Forget it, forget it. She had already resolved his death tribulation and planted a life-saving talisman on his body.

She hoped that the silly kid would not find trouble in the future and seek his own death.

After thinking it through, Qin Yiyi instantly threw Yang Huaijun’s matter to the back of her mind. She stopped in her tracks and curled her lips at Shang Jiuying.

“Go back to where you came from. I’m going home for dinner.”

It was almost 9:30 pm. Who was she doing this for? Hunger was something that could never happen again!

“I know a restaurant that serves delicious food. Shall I treat you?”

Shang Jiuying’s sudden words made Qin Yiyi’s eyes light up.

Delicious food!

But in the next moment, she shook her head. “I’m not going. It’s too late.” As she said this, Qin Yiyi was gnashing her teeth in anger.

There was delicious food, but she couldn’t eat it!

It was simply… The anger of man and god… Anger!

“Then where do you live? I’ll drive you.”

After a pause, Shang Jiuying’s voice was calm, but insistent. “Save yourself the trouble of taking a taxi. It’s not safe for girls to take a taxi at night.”

‘Alright, then he’ll drive.’

Once Qin Yiyi agreed, Shang Jiuying beckoned for the driver to bring the car over and personally opened the car door for Qin Yiyi.

This made the driver who had just come around to open the car door look at him in confusion.

His Ninth Master… When did he have to do such a thing personally?!

“You go back, I’ll drive.”

After saying this, the driver, who was still in a daze, watched helplessly as his Ninth Master abandoned his close subordinate and drove off.

The driver… wanted to cry but had no tears. He didn’t bring any money!

“Can you just leave him behind like this?”

Looking at his expression just now, it seemed like he was about to cry.

Qin Yiyi wouldn’t easily sympathize with him, but she didn’t want to bring trouble to the other party because of herself.

“Don’t worry, there’s someone following behind.”

Shang Jiuying glanced at her, paused for a moment, and softly explained, “You don’t have to worry that he won’t be able to return.”

Qin Yiyi glanced at him, nodded, and leaned against the back of the seat to rest.

Although she didn’t use her inner energy to help Yang Huaijun cure the Gu poison just now, it still took a lot of effort for her to continuously burn it.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have nodded and let Shang Jiuying send her off so easily.

Just as she was thinking, the car suddenly stopped.

She suddenly opened her eyes, and her sharp gaze shot out like a knife.

But in the next moment, she instantly restrained herself.

With an indifferent expression, she reached out and took the milk from the other party. “Thank you.”

“You must be tired. Drink some milk. There’s a red light ahead. I asked Xu Zhuoyan to buy some food just now. He should have sent it over when we get home later.”

Qin Yiyi tugged at the straw and sipped the milk. She looked at him deeply and suddenly spoke.

“I can’t cure the poison in your body for the time being.”

“I know.”

“If you can’t cure it, you only have two years to live.”

“I thought I only had half a year.” After a pause, Shang Jiuying said in an indifferent tone, “The doctor just told me a few days ago that half a year is the deadline.”

The red light in front turned green.

Shang Jiuying drove calmly as if what he had just said was not his own business, nor was it a major matter that concerned his life!

“Oh, turn left in front and drive in. It’s the third residential area.”

Qin Yiyi watched as the car turned into her own residential area. Before alighting from the car, she politely asked, “Do you want to go up and have a cup of tea?”

“…Okay.”

Qin Yiyi, “…”

Ten minutes after the two of them entered the house, Xu Zhuoyan finally appeared, out of breath.

He was carrying bags of various items. When he raised his head and saw that it was actually Shang Jiuying who had come to open the door, he was shocked.

“Brother Jiu, why is it you?” His Master Jiu was someone who couldn’t even be bothered to look at a broken door, let alone open it himself.

Shang Jiuying glanced at him and stretched out his hand. “Give it to me.”

“Ah, oh oh, Brother Jiu, take this. Be careful, it’s hot. Hey, that’s soup…”

Shang Jiuying turned around and placed the things in his hand on the cabinet at the side. Then, he turned around and took the other boxes from Xu Zhuoyan.

Then, after glancing at him…

“Take a few steps back.”

“Oh, oh, what’s wrong?” Did he have something on him?

Before Xu Zhuoyan could finish thinking, the door was shut in his face. Shut…

Xu Zhuoyan, “…” This was the second time today that Brother Jiu had thrown him away!

“Eat something before going to rest.”

Shang Jiuying took the initiative to put away the things on the small table beside the sofa. The food he bought filled the entire small table.

He raised his head and called out to Qin Yiyi indifferently, “Eat.”

Then, he sat down on the sofa at the side.

Qin Yiyi was really hungry. Moreover, this was her own home. There was no need to be polite.

However, after eating two mouthfuls, she suddenly raised her head.

“You’re not eating?”

Shang Jiuying’s gaze paused for a moment. “Okay, let’s eat together.”

Although he said that they were eating together, Qin Yiyi realized that Shang Jiuying ate very little. The number of times he picked up the food was pitifully few.

She frowned slightly and looked over.

“If you don’t like it, then don’t eat it.”

Shang Jiuying swallowed the last grain of rice in his bowl before putting down his bowl and chopsticks. He explained softly to her, “Recently, my appetite has been a little bad. The doctor said that it was a mutation of the lesion, so…”

“I’m sorry for affecting your appetite.”

Qin Yiyi was silent for a moment. She was about to clear the dishes and go to the kitchen.

However, Shang Jiuying took a step faster and snatched it away. “Let me do it.”

“You know how to wash dishes?”

Qin Yiyi looked at him with some curiosity and suspicion.

“I know quite a lot of things. You can slowly discover them in the future.”

“No need.” She was not related to him. As for his face, she felt that it was good-looking. It would be good to look at it occasionally.

No matter how beautiful it was, she could not look at it every day.

She would get sick of it.

10:30 pm.

Shang Jiuying stood up and said goodbye, “This is my number. If you need anything, you can call me anytime.”

If Xu Zhuoyan heard this, he would probably be shocked again.

Even his friend who had been by Shang Jiuying’s side since he was young could not call him after 10:30 pm to disturb him.

Otherwise, he would definitely end up very, very miserable!

After weighing the business card in her hand, Qin Yiyi, who had sent him to the door, suddenly said, “Come back in half a month.”

She hoped that during this period of time, she would be lucky enough to find some medicinal herbs that were useful to this man.

After all, with such a good-looking face, if it was really gone…

It would be too much of a pity!

Downstairs.

Xu Zhuoyan was personally waiting in the car.

Seeing Shang Jiuying arrive downstairs, he slowly drove the car over. “Jiu…”

“Shang Jiuying, be careful!”

Behind him, accompanied by the girl’s exclamation, a figure like the wind spun over and forcefully pulled him a few steps to the side.

Bang!

Almost at the moment his body moved…

Under the night, in the darkness, a bullet brushed past Shang Jiuying’s arm and penetrated the opposite wall!
