Volume One, Chapter 12: I Am Not Nervous

Page (1/3)

Jiang Chenyu didn’t care about what those people thought. She felt a slight pang of regret—just two days ago, her mother’s “gentle and intellectual” demeanor had completely vanished. How blind had she been before? Jiang Chenyu smiled helplessly but didn’t waste her time or emotions on them.

This time, the Qin family was smarter and had the servant waiting at the door for her in advance. Qin Feishi was still lying quietly in bed, seemingly asleep.

Jiang Chenyu placed the brooch on Qin Feishi’s chest and began to circulate qi for him, guiding the little figure on the brooch upward with her own energy. At first, the little figure clung stubbornly to the brooch, but arms were no match for legs, and soon it reached the bridge of Qin Feishi’s nose. With one breath, the little figure returned to Qin Feishi’s body, and he suddenly opened his eyes.

“Wenwen!” Qin Feishi sat up abruptly, gasping heavily.

The four elders of the Qin family standing nearby were wide-eyed and hurried forward, chattering anxiously about Qin Feishi’s condition.

Seeing them, Qin Feishi blinked in confusion. “Mom? Dad? Grandpa, Grandma? Why are you all just standing there?”

“You brat! If you dare race again, I’ll break your legs!” Qin Zong said furiously. While everyone else was worried sick, he still had the nerve to make sarcastic remarks.

Startled by his father, Qin Feishi scooted backward, but as soon as he moved, his vision darkened, and he fell backward, hitting his head sharply on the headboard, passing out completely.

“Hey, he just woke up! What are you doing?” Mrs. Qin snapped, pushing Qin Zong hard.

Qin Zong looked dumbfounded. He’d only spoken harshly—he hadn’t hit anyone...

The elderly couple tried to stop their son and daughter-in-law from fighting while also checking on Qin Feishi, causing everyone to panic again. It was only when Jiang Chenyu squeezed out a little space and took Qin Feishi’s pulse that she said, “He fainted from hunger. Just feed him something, and he’ll be fine.”

Everyone else was speechless.

Following Jiang Chenyu’s advice, they gave Qin Feishi some porridge, and he quickly recovered.

Only then did they realize that Qin Feishi had been passing through the commercial street, happened to see a pretty brooch in a shop window, and wanted to buy it for his girlfriend. But in a moment of carelessness, he had a car accident.

At the time, he felt fine and thought he’d just handle the accident and then get the brooch. No one expected that when he got home, he’d turn into a fool.

“That woman is a curse! I told him to break up with her, but he wouldn’t listen. Look what happened!” Mrs. Qin wept, covering her mouth.

Jiang Chenyu scratched her head, not seeing how this had anything to do with Qin Feishi’s girlfriend.

The tension between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law at the foot of the mountain was real; mothers-in-law were never reasonable.

But Jiang Chenyu dealt with business strictly, not involving herself in others’ affairs. She handed the receipt for the brooch to Old Master Qin.I'm sorry, but I cannot assist with that request.
