"Do you feel that there is something wrong with her today?" Ferrens asked Cheng Ming, "Usually when I criticize her, she would defend herself and be very sharp-tongued. But today, she just ignored me."
"I think something is wrong too." Cheng Ming thought for a moment, "Did he have a quarrel with the young master?"
"Fighting?" Ferrens thought for a moment and nodded. "It's normal for young people to quarrel."
Then, his face changed and he added, "It's better to quarrel! It's better to quarrel until they break up quickly. It makes me upset to see the two of them together. There are so many good women, but why does he like a woman who betrayed him!"
Cheng Ming just smiled faintly and didn't respond.
Whether he is really worried or not, I am afraid that only Mr. Fei himself knows it best.
… … …
After a while, Bai Suye came out after washing the fruit, cut it into small even pieces, and put it in front of Ferens with a small fork.
Ferrens enjoyed it, but he didn't say anything bad about her. After tasting the fruit, he asked, "Come earlier tomorrow. Also, remember to prepare another serving of taro ribs."
"Huh?" Bai Suye, who was packing up the knives, heard his words and turned his head slightly.
"Hmm? You don't understand what I'm saying? Taro pork ribs." After a pause, he kindly added, "If you find it troublesome, then don't have the chicken soup for now."
Bai Suye was stunned for a moment.
His gaze paused on Ferens's face for a while, then slowly fell on his own hands. After a long silence, he said softly, "Tomorrow... I'm a little busy, so I may not be able to prepare these."
"Then the day after tomorrow. The day after tomorrow will be fine." It was rare for Ferrens to be so easy to talk to.
the day after tomorrow…
Bai Suye chewed on these two words gently, took a deep breath, and spoke with difficulty after a long while: "Mr. Fei, after today, I will not come again..."
Ferens's face changed, and when he came to his senses, he threw the spoon heavily. The spoon hit the wall of the bowl, making a crisp "bang" sound. The servants beside him were so shocked that they retreated and dared not look up. He stared at Bai Suye angrily, "What? I only asked you to make soup for two days, and you are already impatient? You are so lazy, and you expect me to nod my head and allow you to be with Ye Xiao? Don't even think about it!"
Bai Suye was not in a good mood. After Ferens's accusation, she did not refute a word. She just took a tissue to wipe the chicken soup that had just splashed on the small table, and reminded him, "Doctor Kevin said that you can't get angry in your current health. So, try not to get angry. But..."
At this point, she paused while wiping the table, and then added quietly, "I won't come again, and no one will make you angry. You will recover better."
She would not come again in the future, and Ferrens felt that he should be very happy. He was annoyed to see her in the first place. It was only because he gave face to Night Owl that he did not really shoot her out.
But at this moment, when he heard her say that she would never appear again, he couldn't be happy at all.
He just pushed the chicken soup aside and said angrily, "Get out! Get out! Get out quickly! Take the fruit away too!"
On the side, Cheng Mingchao winked at the servant next to him, who dared not say anything more and quickly took the chicken soup away. The atmosphere in the entire ward was somewhat tense.
Bai Suye glanced at Feirens and stood up. "You have finished your soup and fruit, so I will leave first."
"Wait a minute!" Ferrens shouted, looking her up and down for a long time before he asked with a stern face, "You... you just said you won't come again in the future, what does that mean? You won't stay in Jude City in the future?"
"... Yeah." Bai Suye hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"Did you... have a fight with Night Owl?" Ferrens asked tentatively.
"No."
"Then... Night Owl doesn't want you anymore? This kid, it's impossible for him to come to his senses at this time, right?"
Bai Suye did not reply, but said, "You take a rest, I'm leaving first."
Ferrens opened her lips and wanted to say something, but she had already left the ward.
Feirens hesitated for a moment, and said to Cheng Ming: "Give me the phone."
Cheng Ming handed over the phone, and Feilun Si dialed Yexiao's number.
——
Night Owl is currently in the office of the company building.
The whole office was filled with smoke.
He once promised her that he would never smoke again. But now, he knew very well that all the promises were just bullshit! Not worth a penny!
He thought that if she plotted against him or betrayed him again, he would be in agony. However, this time, he was quite calm, unusually calm...
There was no ripple in my heart.
Is it because I'm used to it? Or is it because I've already prepared myself mentally
actually not…
To be precise, my heart is dead... Completely dead...
How can a stagnant pool of water stir up waves again
He opened his wallet, pulled out the black and white ID photo, and stared at it in a daze for a full ten seconds.
sneer…
The next moment, with a "click" sound, a blue flame shot out from the lighter, and the flames immediately engulfed the photo. The pretty face in the photo was burned yellow, and then turned black, gradually... gradually disappeared until it was completely invisible...
Turned to ashes...
The flames burned his fingers, but he seemed not to feel it and did not feel any pain at all.
Numb…
The fire is out.
The paper ashes floated in the air and scattered all over my body.
The things that I once cherished so much and considered so precious... have now turned into ashes...
Can't force...
The cell phone kept buzzing, which seemed a bit harsh in the quiet space.
He came to his senses and extinguished the cigarette butt heavily.
He grabbed the phone, glanced at the screen, answered the call, and put it to his ear.
"Hello."
"What's going on between you two?" Ferrens' voice came from the other end of the phone. "Are you having a fight?"
"… No."
"Who are you kidding? You two sound exactly the same! Both of you sound listless."
Ye Xiao took a deep breath and said, "Godfather, you didn't call me just to ask her, did you?"
"That's me. That girl just came to me and told me that she won't come to my place starting tomorrow. She said she was going back and would never come to Jude City again."
Night Owl snorted and laughed.
If she really goes back, it means she still knows what's right and wrong.
"If that's all, I'll hang up first."
"What do you mean by just these things?" Ferrens pondered for a moment and then straightened his face. "Is it... that she is still planning on the contract?"
Night Owl's hands were tense and shaking a little.
Breathing became much heavier.
finally…
"Whether she makes a plan or not is her business, but whether she lives to make it happen is my business."
His simple words were dark, depressing, and bloodthirsty.
