Given how serious the matter was, Feng Yuanlin naturally agreed right away to help. In addition to helping Shuyan, Feng Yuanlin also had other reasons for it. He was afraid that the matter might become even more serious. At the moment, it was just one pregnant woman; If the person behind this wanted to harm more pregnant women, and made a move in the capital, this incident would naturally involve him. He might even have to ask Shuyan for help when the time came.
Speaking of which, this was the first time he had heard of such a strange thing despite all his experience. He didn’t believe that there was nothing strange about it. As for what the old Yu family matriarch said about Immortal Nezha or whatever, he didn’t believe that either. Thinking of that stillborn, Feng Yuanlin couldn’t help but be curious!
Chi Shuyan didn’t hide it and gave a rough description of the stillborn. It wasn’t that she wanted to divulge the Yu family’s personal affairs, but the stillborn was the key.
For example, the child’s skin color was very unusual. When Yu Wei was pregnant, it was also very strange as her health was especially bad, as if she was being sucked dry of vitality.
The more Feng Yuanlin listened, the more solemn his face became. His frown never wavered as he took Chi Shuyan to the hospital canteen to get food.
Chi Shuyan said comfortingly, “Brother Feng, I’ll settle this matter immediately!”
Feng Yuanlin nodded, then shook his head. He withdrew his gaze from the broken Buddha pendant, mainly because he couldn’t discern anything from it. He handed the Buddha pendant to Shuyan. Chi Shuyan put it back into her pocket, and Brother Feng suddenly sighed. “Shuyan, I believe in your capability. What I’m most worried about now is as you said: There are many secrets and someone behind this Buddha pendant. I’m worried that it’s not just one pregnant woman who will suffer!”
The more Feng Yuanlin thought about it, the deeper his frown got and the more uneasy he felt.
Chi Shuyan hadn’t thought much of it before and just wanted to solve the issue for the Yu family. Now that Brother Feng said this, however, her heart jumped and she felt more and more uneasy. Speaking of which, although China was a high-tech country now, some superstitions had yet to be completely dispelled.
In Chi Shuyan’s view, some feudal superstitions could be trusted, but most were nonsense and harmful.
For example, if Old Madam Yu hadn’t firmly believed that the child in her daughter’s stomach was Immortal Nezha, her daughter might not have given birth to a stillborn.
Even in society today, there were probably many people who had the same sort of mindset as Old Madam Yu.
Plus, that hospital was very suspicious. Chi Shuyan thought for a moment, then told Brother Feng about the hospital where Yu Wei had gone for her checkup. “Brother Feng, the truth is that the daughter of the Yu family went to that well-known maternity hospital for her prenatal checkups. However, every time she went, they told her that the fetus was normal. I keep feeling that there’s something wrong with that hospital.”
Although Chi Shuyan didn’t rule out the possibility that Jiang Li had bribed the hospital, she trusted her instincts more!
After listening to Shuyan, Feng Yuanlin also became serious and immediately agreed. “Okay, Shuyan, I’ll get someone to investigate this matter first, and I’ll let you know immediately if there’s any news.”
Chi Shuyan relaxed when Brother Feng agreed to help her. Although she was an expert at catching ghosts, she lacked the connections to investigate the secrets behind the Yang family. It wouldn’t be easy to investigate this matter, so it was good to have Brother Feng’s help.
After talking business, Chi Shuyan changed the subject. After all, it was a heavy topic of conversation. It was rare that Brother Feng had time to relax, and it wasn’t nice to keep bringing his mood down, so Chi Shuyan simply talked about trivial things to lighten the atmosphere.
When the two exited the elevator, they were in good spirits.
Qi Zhenbai, who was standing at the door to Feng Yuancen’s ward, looked from afar at his wife’s smiling face as she chatted with another man. Not only did the veins on his forehead jump, his face also darkened. At that moment, his face was absolutely unsightly and covered in a layer of frost.
Feeling on edge, he had taken out a cigarette earlier on and was smoking heavily. When he saw his wife, he subconsciously stubbed out the cigarette and threw it into the trash. He pursed his thin lips and looked imposing.
Feng Yuanlin also spotted Zhenbai standing not far away in front of his cousin’s ward. Although he was still unhappy with him, he no longer blamed him for assaulting his cousin. Feng Yuanlin couldn’t help but mock, “Oh, what a rare guest! Zhenbai! What, you know how to feel guilt?”
Feng Yuanlin also knew that Zhenbai had come for Shuyan. Given his heart of stone, would he be here to see Feng Yuanlin’s cousin? He probably even wished that Feng Yuancan was a little more seriously injured.
Because he was well aware of this, the more Feng Yuanlin looked at his friend, the more he disdained him. He couldn’t blame him, but he could still nitpick. This friend of his hadn’t needed to be so ruthless – Feng Yuanlin didn’t know how to break it to his family, and had yet to tell them about what happened to Feng Yuancen.
If he told them, he would become even busier.
Feng Yuanlin’s head hurt at the thought.
Chi Shuyan also saw the tall and imposing man not far away. Apart from a flash of surprise and doubt in her eyes, she was indifferent and ignored him, as if he were invisible. She couldn’t be bothered to greet him.
It just so happened that she saw the other party staring fixedly at the lunch box in her hand. Chi Shuyan didn’t feel guilty, nor did she bother to say anything. She would leave after she ate.
As for why the man was looking for Brother Feng, it had nothing to do with her.
Qi Zhenbai stared at the lunch box in his wife’s hands for a long time. Ignoring Feng Yuanlin, he walked over to his wife and took the initiative to hold the lunch box for her. He asked in a low voice, “You didn’t eat lunch?”
