Chapter 342 - 341: Distracted
Fei Erya heard Yang Liu’s words and quickly smiled, "Sure, let’s go shopping and eat together then."
"Then it’s settled."
Yang Liu laughed and finalized the plan.
On the other side, Gu Tingyu chatted with Fan Qianshu and Fang Cheng for a while. However, he wasn’t very familiar with the two of them, so he didn’t say much, just politely participated in a few topics without saying anything more.
Fang Cheng had something to do later, so he bid farewell to Fan Qianshu, "Qianshu, we’re heading back for now. If anything comes up, remember to call me."
"Alright, thank you, cousin."
Fan Qianshu said with a smile, then waved goodbye to Fang Cheng and his wife.
"Er Ya, where’s Uncle? I haven’t seen him."
Fei Erya smiled and said, "My dad insisted on making soup for me, so he’s running a bit late today, but he should be here soon."
While the two were talking, Fei Zhangda came over. Seeing Yiyi and Gu Tingyu, he smiled and greeted, "Yiyi, you’re here! I’ve got good news for you. Er Ya can be discharged the day after tomorrow. The doctor said she should rest well at home for another month, and she should be good as new."
Hearing this, Yiyi looked at Fei Erya with delight and asked, "Really? How come you didn’t tell us earlier?"
"I just forgot while chatting."
Yiyi couldn’t help but shake her head, "How could you forget something like that? But you should hurry and drink the soup; Uncle made it especially for you."
Fei Zhangda had made a bone broth soup. After pouring it out, he handed it to his daughter and then turned to Fan Qianshu, saying, "Let’s take Tingyu out for a meal. They came all this way to see Er Ya; we can’t let them go hungry."
Fan Qianshu naturally had no objections and nodded, "Sure, but maybe I’ll stay and look after Er Ya later. Uncle, you take Yiyi and them out to eat something."
Yiyi quickly said, "You go ahead, I’ll stay and take care of Er Ya. Besides, I have a lot to talk about with Er Ya. With you all at dinner, we girls can chat about something private."
Seeing that Yiyi said so, Fan Qianshu didn’t argue further and went with Gu Tingyu and Fei Zhangda to a nearby restaurant outside the hospital.
After Yiyi and the others left, she looked at Fei Erya and asked, "Er Ya, did something happen?"
Although Fei Erya didn’t act out of the ordinary today, Yiyi still noticed something different in her eyes, feeling that she seemed a bit absent-minded.
Hearing Yiyi’s question, Fei Erya looked at her with a bit of surprise, then sighed, "You found out after all."
Hearing this, Yiyi couldn’t help but ask, "What happened? Did Fan Qianshu make you upset?"
Fei Erya remained silent, saying nothing.
Seeing this, Yiyi frowned and said, "Could it be that I guessed right? You’ve already suffered such a serious injury for him; did he do something to betray you?"
Thinking of Fan Qianshu’s look, even if he didn’t pursue others, many would still pursue him, and many women’s faces flashed through Yiyi’s mind.
"No, he didn’t do anything to betray me."
But Yiyi was full of disbelief.
"Impossible, if he hadn’t done anything wrong, why would you have this expression?"
Fei Erya quickly explained, "Qianshu really didn’t do anything. It’s just recently Zhang Li came to find him several times."
Hearing this, Yiyi’s face showed a look of realization.
"I knew Zhang Li liked Fan Qianshu. Didn’t expect she already knew you are Fan Qianshu’s girlfriend, yet she still dared to come to the hospital."
Hearing Yiyi’s words, Fei Erya quickly added, "Yiyi, you really misunderstood. Qianshu really didn’t do anything, every time it’s that woman looking for him, but Qianshu is very cold to her."
"Even so, Fan Qianshu is also at fault. Why doesn’t he make things clear with that woman? Doesn’t he know that seeing them together could lead to misunderstandings?"
Fei Erya waved her hand and said, "Yiyi, I really didn’t misunderstand."
At that moment, Yiyi finally calmed down a bit, suspiciously glancing at Fei Erya, "Since you didn’t misunderstand, then why are you so distracted?"
Fei Erya opened her mouth but said nothing, her brows furrowed tightly, looking somewhat conflicted.
"Er Ya, is there something you can’t tell me? There’s nothing we need to hide from each other."
Thinking of how Yiyi worried about her earlier, Fei Erya decided not to hide anything anymore and directly said, "Actually, I feel like there’s something not quite an ordinary neighbor relationship between Qianshu and Zhang Li."
Hearing this, Yiyi’s thoughts ran wild again.
She couldn’t help but think, since Fan Qianshu and Zhang Li aren’t ordinary neighbors, there must be some unusual romantic relationship.
But seeing that Fei Erya wasn’t jealous, she swallowed back her words and curiously asked, "So what’s their relationship?"
"I just feel like Zhang Li seems to be very respectful to Qianshu. Logically, Zhang Li is older than Qianshu, so if there were any respect, it should be Qianshu respecting her, yet it’s the opposite now."
Yiyi didn’t think much of this.
Knowing that Zhang Li surely likes Fan Qianshu, it was normal for her to treat him well.
Seeing Yiyi’s indifferent attitude, Fei Erya couldn’t help but say, "Actually, my injury is almost healed. Once, when the nurse didn’t come, I went to the restroom myself. Later, when Qianshu didn’t return, I looked out and saw him talking to Zhang Li."
Yiyi focused on Fei Erya instead.
"Er Ya, how could you go to the restroom by yourself? What if you slipped? You’re too careless."
Seeing Yiyi’s concern, Fei Erya quickly said, "Okay, okay, I was wrong, I won’t do it again, but let me finish talking first."
Yiyi stopped saying more, "Okay, go on, I’m listening."
Fei Erya continued.
"That time I heard them mention something about a building, but I didn’t hear clearly. They looked like Zhang Li was reporting work to Qianshu, but Qianshu is still in college, and Zhang Li has long been working. How could they possibly intersect in work?"
Hearing this, Yiyi’s brows furrowed slightly.
"Are you sure Zhang Li was reporting work to Fan Qianshu? Could you have been mistaken?"
Because she couldn’t think of any intersection between them at work.
"I shouldn’t be mistaken. I also heard them mention a previous assignment or something."
