Chapter 373 - 373 It's Really You
373 It’s Really You
Her face was covered with a towel, so her expression couldn’t be seen. She only spoke her words carefully.
Su Feifei glanced at her. Then, she pulled the sleeve away.
Su Ling’s mouth immediately flattened, and tears directly gushed out.
“Stop talking,” a cold voice came from the side.
Su Ling was stunned for a moment and shyly took off the towel!
Sure enough, Su Feifei had already taken a stool and sat down. She opened the ointment in her hand and stared at Su Ling.
Su Ling immediately smiled through her tears. Then, she thought of something, and her swollen face became serious. She whispered, “D-don’t you take advantage of me!”
She knew that the tactic she used just now was the same method she used to deal with Su Feifei in the past.
What if Su Feifei hadn’t gotten over the past and wanted to just aggressively apply the medicine?
Su Feifei was stunned.
“As long as I have the advantage over you, when will you not be in danger?”
It made sense. Then, she finally relaxed.
“Then does that mean I’ve made a contribution today?” Su Ling asked.
“Yes.” Su Feifei’s answer was neither light nor heavy.
“There are no conditions.”
Su Ling gritted her teeth and snorted. “Fine, I won’t tell you.” She wanted Su Feifei to let her family off the hook.
However, she also knew that if the Su family had stirred up too much trouble to let the matter pass that easily.
Su Feifei would still make a move when it was time.
She bit onto her tongue for a long time without saying a word. In the end, the hand of the person behind her directly pressed on her scars!
“Argh! It hurts!”
Su Ling shouted!
Su Feifei quickly pressed her down, tapped the wound on her back a few times with her fingers, and helped her put on her clothes.
“It’s done.”
She was in so much pain that her facial features were twisted. Before she could react to what had happened, the medicine was already applied.
“If you want to cry, cry in the room.” Su Feifei put down the medicine. “People come and go here. It’s an important time now, so it will affect their enthusiasm.”
Su Ling’s mouth twitched. She gritted her teeth and lay on the sofa. She was so angry but she couldn’t say anything!
When she heard the first half of the sentence, she thought it was for comfort. However, the second half of the sentence felt like a basin of cold water was being poured on her!
The cold water also had a miraculous effect; originally, she was still upset about falling out with her family, and because she couldn’t integrate into the group there, she always felt that she did not belong. Her identity would always stand out wherever she went, but now, she had completely forgotten about it.
All that was left in her mind was the cursing and the burning pain in her back.
Su Ling hit the sofa and stomped her feet.
Outside the door, there was a sudden cough.
Su Ling immediately sat up straight and squinted at the sound.
Tiantian stuck her head in from outside the door.
“Hey… everyone was distracted and didn’t eat their fill. Su Feifei said we should eat something to fill our stomachs. Are you coming?”
Su Ling was stunned. She subconsciously looked around. After confirming that she was the one being talked to, she immediately stood up.
“O-okay!”
“Then hurry up, I’ll wait for you at the door.”
Tiantian’s head shrank back again.
Su Ling stood in place for a long time, smiled, and her action of packing the medicine became a lot lighter.
Outside, everyone was eating and chatting.
Qiao Hefeng was the only one who felt like he was sitting on eggshells. His eyes kept wandering between everyone’s faces and under the table.
‘Is Bo Silin still around? That must have been Bo Silin, right?’
He even started to wonder if he was hallucinating.
Just as he was hesitating about whether he should go and take a look, Su Feifei suddenly passed by him.
The direction was directly toward the table!
Qiao Hefeng was speechless.
“Su Feifei!” He immediately stood up and rushed forward. “What are you doing? Let me help, I’d be happy to help!”
Su Feifei glanced at him.
“I’m going to eat. Are you going to feed me?”
Qiao Hefeng was speechless.
“No, no, no, I w-won’t. You can obviously do it yourself.”
Su Feifei picked up her bowl and chopsticks and stared at Qiao Hefeng.
Then, she suddenly let go. The chopsticks fell to the ground with a clatter!
Qiao Hefeng was speechless. Then, Su Feifei bent over and looked under the table.
Qiao Hefeng immediately exploded. “I’ll do it! I’ll do it!!!” He quickly picked up the chopsticks and placed them on the table! He didn’t even dare to breathe!
Su Feifei’s movements stopped. The two of them — one bent over and the other standing up straight — slowly looked at each other.
Qiao Hefeng’s back was drenched in a cold sweat!
Su Feifei’s eyes were scrunched as he stared at his odd behavior.
“A-anyways…”
Su Feifei ignored him. She slowly stretched out her feet and squatted down.
On her feet, her shoelaces had come loose. Hefeng looked at it and immediately got to moving.
She gritted her teeth. “Does it look like I need help tying my shoelaces?”
Qiao Hefeng almost fainted from the comment. Amidst the panic, he managed to find a trace of rationality and held himself back!
Su Feifei isn’t suspicious, right?
“Hey,” Xiao He walked past him and said coldly, “You’ve glanced under the table at least eight hundred times, are you okay?”
Qiao Hefeng was speechless.
‘Bo Silin! Just do you know, it wasn’t my plan to expose you!’
His face was ashen as he prayed to whoever was listening.
However, a full five seconds passed but still… Nothing happened! Su Feifei squatted on the ground and didn’t say anything.
Her gaze was only fixed on the bottom of the table.
Qiao Hefeng couldn’t help but give a peek too.
Before he could fully squat, he froze.
It was empty under the table.
There was nothing.
Absolutely nothing!
Where was he?
“What were you looking at? Are you looking for Bo Silin?” Su Feifei tilted her head and asked slowly.
Qiao Hefeng was internally panicking and immediately swallowed his saliva.
“Bo Silin has a reason to go missing. He has offended many people, and all of them want to kill him. The Bo family is under strict surveillance now! Moreover, tomorrow is going to be an important day. When the Luo family lets their guard down, we can take action during the birthday banquet and capture them all in one fell swoop!”
Grandpa Bo was stunned.
Since when did he become so smart?
After Qiao Hefeng finished speaking, he was just as shocked as his exaggerated lie.
Su Feifei stood up, she looked deep in thought. It looked like whatever he said was somewhat believable to her…
Qiao Hefeng immediately heaved a sigh of relief and stood up. The moment he looked up to the second floor, his eyes started to sparkle. “I need to pee! I-I-I’m going to the toilet!” He ran away immediately after, scrambling.
The moment Su Feifei turned around, Grandpa Bo coughed lightly.
“Bo Xi. Send this to the Qi family!”
He took out an invitation and broke the silence. Bo Xi, who was eating, suddenly stopped and turned around.
Everyone stopped as well. They looked at their meals and moved their hands mechanically, trying to pretend that they were not listening in on the gossip.
Su Feifei’s attention was also attracted to what Grandpa Bo asked for.
“Are you crazy?” Bo Xi spat a few words through her teeth. “I’m not sending that.”
“There’s no one else in the house that can do it. Are you going to let Su Feifei deliver it?” Grandpa Bo said confidently.
Bo Xi was so angry that she laughed and turned around. “Come out. Show him how many people are alive in his house!”
The butler didn’t reply for a long time. When she turned around, she saw the butler lying in the flower bed.
“Yo! What was going on? Are your legs cold again?” Grandpa Bo ran over in a hurry.
“I-it’s fine…” The butler raised his head apologetically. “It’s… It’s just that… I might not be able to send the invitation.”
Bo Xi was speechless.
“I’ll go.” Su Feifei wiped her hands and replied, “I know where it is.”
She stood up, took the invitation, and walked out of the door. Behind them, Grandpa Bo and Bo Xi were both stunned.
“Follow her! Don’t let Su Feifei go there! She’ll turn the whole Qi family upside down!” Grandpa Bo urged.
Bo Xi was silent for a moment before he stood up and chased after her. Behind him, Grandpa Bo revealed a smug smile.
Upstairs, Qiao Hefeng was in his room, crying bitterly.
“Bo Silin! It’s really you!”
