Chapter 1001: Chapter 60: Sparks Aglow, Only True Love Must Not Be Betrayed

Qiu Zhixuan paused, recalling Chen Yiyue’s earlier attitude, then noticing her elder brother’s slightly anxious appearance...

Thoughts slipped through her mind, she pressed her lips together and said, "Chen Yiyue."

Feng Chengxuan’s shoulders sank with slight disappointment, "Oh, her..."

Qiu Zhixuan looked at him, "Do you know her, big brother?"

"Don’t know her, but didn’t you introduce her a few years ago?" Feng Chengxuan curled his lips, made way for Qiu Zhixuan to put the flowers inside, and then left to wash his face.

The lonely silhouette left Qiu Zhixuan standing in place, actually wanting to ask a question.

But fragments in her mind couldn’t connect, always feeling a bit chaotic.

Moreover... Chen Yiyue’s attitude...

Qiu Zhixuan slightly furrowed her brow but never spoke out.

Just at that moment, Feng Chengjin called, and hearing the sweet signals from her lover, she smiled, delivered the bouquet to the ward, quickly picked up the baby’s cradle, and answered the phone.

"Hmm? You’ve arrived, okay, I’ll come down now."

On the other end, Feng Chengjin’s laughter was soft and warm, "Don’t rush down, I’ll come and see Yu Xi, later I’ll carry the baby, don’t tire yourself, and the wind is strong outside, wait for me to come up and give you my coat."

This kind of pampering...

Qiu Zhixuan’s lips curved, saying, "Okay."

...

Feng Chengxuan saw Chen Yiyue’s figure, five days after leaving that night.

Unable to wait for Feng Yuxi to regain memory, Gu Zixi could only temporarily go to school first, and the Qi Family’s youngest daughter, Qi Xuesha, also went to the United States.

Most of the family members were busy with their own work, only occasionally scheduling to come to the hospital to accompany Yu Xi.

On the afternoon of the fifth day, Feng Chengxuan, carrying cooked porridge, arrived at the hospital, ready to go upstairs for his shift.

But when passing by a venue not far from the hospital entrance.

Suddenly, a silhouette burst into his vision like a fleeting glimpse.

This was a charitable donation venue, usually many such virtue activities occur at the hospital entrance, today’s event seemed to be coordinated with the Red Cross, urging people to donate blood.

Yet among the vast crowd, Feng Chengxuan accidentally glanced sideways and fixedly saw a graceful figure as elegant as an orchid.

She showed only a back view to him, but as a breeze blew by, she swept a strand of hair over her shoulder behind her ear, so gentle, so heart-stirring.

As if time reversed, returning to over twenty years ago.

She stood by the fountain in the small garden gazing at the waterdrops, hearing footsteps, she turned back and smiled at him, "Chengxuan..."

The cigarette in his hand burnt to the fingertip, scorching him.

He came back to himself, slammed the brake to stop the car, commanded the shocked assistant beside the passenger seat, "Drive the car to the hospital and park it!"

Facing the assistant’s pale face, he grabbed the thermos of porridge, flung open the car door, and dashed out without a second thought.

Behind his car, there were also startled reporters following him, watching the driver actually stop in the middle of the road!

They honked their horns in anger, expressing dissatisfaction!

Some even opened car windows, shouting at his retreating figure, "Hey! Parking here, do you have any sense of decency! Driving a luxury car, so what!"

Feng Chengxuan turned a deaf ear, for these things didn’t matter to him at the moment!

He only ran fast towards the crowd-packed venue.

Faster! Faster! Even faster!

All these people around! Don’t block the way! Don’t block the sight!

Feng Chengxuan rushed frantically to where the woman’s back had stood, but this moment, her figure was no longer there.

Scanning around, unable to even find any trace resembling her silhouette.

Heart trembled, heart quivered, finally developing into heartache.

Those deep eyes like ink at that moment also brimmed with slight tears.

Was... it her?

Did she really come back to Rong City?

After so many years, did she get married? Did she ever forgive him even a tiny bit?

He grabbed several people, repeatedly asking, "Is there a lady named Su Xin here? Did any lady named Su Xin donate blood beforehand?"

Giving puzzled shakes of the head were all he received from the staff.

Remembering when she left heartbroken.

Then feeling the pain of searching and not finding at this moment.

His heart... twitched inch by inch, beating, rejoicing that she appeared in his life once again, and aching that she was lost yet again...

Not leaving, Feng Chengxuan only hoped at that moment that his glimpse wasn’t an illusion, wishing to linger a while longer to see if he might see her again.

This behavior made the thermos he was holding grow cold without his noticing.

He searched for her, one glance after another...

In the distance, inside the medical work vehicle for blood donation.

Chen Yiyue sat inside, gazing at the man in the center of the square, her autumn eyes rippling with emotion.

Was he... looking for her?

She had seen the commotion on the street when Feng Chengxuan was scolded for parking and quickly retreated into the car.

As memories flowed, she really wished she could deceive herself into believing that Feng Chengxuan was still the man who loved her, the man worthy of her love.

But, Feng Chengxuan was not Feng Chengjin, and she was not Qiu Zhixuan, right?

Thinking of Feng Chengxuan’s past choices, she smirked mockingly and lowered her eyelids in pain.

After a two-minute buffer, she instructed the assistant beside her, "The collection of blood samples in this vehicle is almost complete, right? Let’s drive it to the ice storage first."

The assistant nodded, feeling a bit sympathetic and puzzled as they looked at her sad eyes, but then glanced at the numerous precious blood bags brought by many kind-hearted people, and said, "Alright."

As the vehicle started, they quickly left.

In the center of the square, Feng Chengxuan remained standing in place, even calling someone, searching...

...

Feng Family, old residence.

At this moment, Feng Chengjin had gone to work. The two elders of the Feng Family were accompanied by Feng Chengjie at the hospital, waiting for Feng Chengxuan to bring meals and take over the shift.

It was already the weather of March.

The various kids of the family were either hospitalized, married, or attending school, which made the place much quieter.

Qiu Zhixuan stayed at home to breastfeed Yu Ze.

After the nap, Qiu Zhixuan felt a bit hungry, so she asked Aunt Wang next to her to make something to eat.

"What do you want to eat, Madam?" Aunt Wang asked with a smiling eye, greatly fond of the temper of the Third Young Madam.

Elegant, calm, beautiful, and often very easy to talk to.

Qiu Zhixuan thought for a moment and said, "Let’s cook some tangyuan? The chicken soup at noon was too rich to drink much."

"Alright." Aunt Wang was amused when she recalled how the Third Young Madam couldn’t resist the Old Master’s and Old Madam’s insistence on drinking more chicken soup, making her look cross.

She nodded, handed the nutritional oil in her hand to a young maid beside her, instructing her to help the Third Young Madam change diapers for the little master.

After repeatedly emphasizing the precautions and ensuring the young maid understood, she then turned to head downstairs.

The whole time, Qiu Zhixuan waited quietly.

But ten minutes later, Aunt Wang pushed open the door with distress, saying, "Madam... there are no tangyuan left."

Qiu Zhixuan paused in surprise.

Without thinking much, she gently asked, "How come there are none? I remember last night Yushan was keen to eat them and even cooked some."

"I remember too!" Aunt Wang said with urgency and grief, "I told the kitchen to cook some tangyuan for you, they agreed, but when I went to the nursery to collect some washed and dried clothes, I was told there were no tangyuan left. This is not something rare, the villa usually has it stocked. Even if the main villa’s supply runs out, the fridge in the servant quarters should have some, but when I called to check, none were there either. I even went to see it personally, and indeed, there are none..."

How could this be?

Qiu Zhixuan furrowed her eyebrows, though not considering it a big deal.

She smiled and said, "Then just make something else. If there’s no tangyuan, make some red date bird’s nest soup."

"Yes, sure." Once again feeling the Third Young Madam was easy-going, not like other pampered Madams who insisted on eating whatever they craved during pregnancy, Aunt Wang relaxed. She preferred looking at Qiu Zhixuan as she turned to go downstairs again.

During this process, Qiu Zhixuan waited another ten minutes.

Ten minutes later, Aunt Wang returned with anger and anxiety this time!

Seeing Aunt Wang’s expression and empty hands, Qiu Zhixuan asked more bewildered, "What... happened?"

This time, Aunt Wang looked close to tears with anger, "Third Young Madam, I feel something’s strange in this house today. Don’t think I’m trying to stir up trouble, but it’s really weird today! I asked them to make red date bird’s nest soup, they agreed to try, but after waiting a couple of minutes, there was no sign of them doing it. When I asked why not, they said they were waiting for the big freezer to bring the bird’s nest over. As this reason made sense, I waited a few more minutes, they told me the bird’s nest was finished, which can’t be possible! Third Young Madam, I’ve been at the Feng Family for many years, and the villa has never run out given that the First Madam loved it back then. Ever since you got pregnant, the Old Madam also specifically told the butler to purchase extra, and I even saw several big boxes at the ice storage area recently, how could they all be gone now?"

Aunt Wang’s mindset was distressed and uncomfortable, attempting simple tasks ordered by the Third Young Madam, yet failing each time.

The maid quarters all spoke highly of the Third Young Madam’s good temper and kindness towards servants. Aunt Wang herself used to do laundry work, and with the special high-tier maid being on leave for the Third Young Madam these days, she had senior maid experience, thus getting the chance to step in. She’s hoping to impress so that the Third Young Madam keeps her around longer, allowing her to rise in maid ranks...

Aunt Wang was almost about to cry.

Qiu Zhixuan understood her intentions and believed it had no effect.

However, shortages of ingredients? Such a situation was indeed the first time she encountered this after marrying into the Feng Family?

Dai Mei slightly knitted.

Just as she wanted to say something, the timid young maid beside her spoke out, "..."
