The young woman’s features were exquisite. A pity her expression wasn’t good; it was filled with anger. But that didn’t stop her looking beautiful. She didn’t need to do anything special. Just by standing there an indescribable nobility emanated from her.

Seeing that Fu Qin had noticed the flowers, Shi Sheng didn’t continue speaking and left the ward. ‘Bloody fucking hell! Never doing chain quests again! They’re too exhausting!’

The door shut with a click, allowing the room to regain its silence. Fu Qin slowly tossed aside the blanket and sat up. He brought the bouquet of flowers close to him and stared at it for quite a while.

When Uncle Jian returned to the ward, he was greeted by the sight of the hospital ward filled with scattered roses. His Young Master was leaning against the head of the bed and his head was lowered as he played on his phone. There were some scattered roses beside him as well.

‘All I did was go out to buy some food, how come the ward turned into this?!’

“Where did the flowers come from?” He definitely wouldn’t get an answer from his Young Master, so Uncle Jian could only ask the bodyguards outside.

“They were brought by Ms Bei.” The bodyguards replied truthfully. Uncle Jian’s expression soured. ‘What does she mean by sending roses? Has she taken a liking to our Young Master? I cannot allow this! The Young Master must not be together with that girl! They aren’t a match!’

Uncle Jian made arrangements for Fu Qin to be discharged that same day. So for the next few days, Shi Sheng wasn’t bothered by chain quest alerts, causing her to be quite happy. Only after she had been discharged did she learn that Fu Qin had long since been discharged.
……

When Shi Sheng returned to the mansion, she could hear the sounds of laughter and conversation coming from inside. In the living room, Ji Xiaoyu and Bei Ze were sitting next to each other, across from a middle-aged couple who appeared quite young.

Shi Sheng was slightly stunned but she soon verified their identities with Bei Zhi’s memories. It was Father Bei and Mother Bei.

‘They actually returned? But Ji Xiaoyu… her changes are quite big ah! Ji Xiaoyu must’ve done well for herself while I’ve been gone, huh?’

Ji Xiaoyu was dressed from head to toe in branded items. The accessories on her neck and wrists were designed in the latest style. She wasn’t going bare-faced anymore; there was exquisite makeup on her face.

She seemed to be more confident than before, as could be seen from her expression and how her chest was slightly puffed up, as if to announce her presence.

Although she was completely decked out in branded items, her temperament had clearly not reached the mark yet, so she looked a bit weird.

Bei Ze was the first to see Bei Zhi. He stood up and looked as if he was going to walk over, but instead he bent over to pick up a glass of water on the table. “Have some water.”

“Thank you.” Ji Xiaoyu’s face reddened as she spoke in embarrassment.

“Dummy.” Bei Ze rubbed Ji Xiaoyu’s head. “Dad, mom, I’m going to show Xiaoyu around.”

“Alright, off you go! Make sure to come back in time for lunch!” Mother Bei smiled and nodded. She seemed to like Ji Xiaoyu a lot.

Only when Bei Ze left did Shi Sheng enter. Father Bei and Mother Bei merely asked a few perfunctory questions upon her arrival.

When she was hospitalised, she had called home to inform them but they had the same perfunctory attitude as right now. This was enough for Shi Sheng to get a feel of what Bei Zhi must’ve been experiencing all these years.
