Chapter 576: Chapter 576: Swords Drawn, Bows Bent, On the Verge of Eruption
Su Mu was well aware that now was not the time to bring this up to Ji Nanfeng; their main task was to find Jiang Bei first. Yet, she couldn’t help herself. Every time she thought of Jiang Bei wandering alone in some corner of the city with her pregnant belly, her heart ached uncontrollably, and she could no longer bear it in front of this very instigator of the trouble.
Fu Shinian fully understood Su Mu’s emotions, so he did not stop her, allowing her some venting. After all, he had warned Ji Nanfeng about this matter before, and Ji Nanfeng had not taken it seriously at all, which led to the current situation; indeed, it was a scolding well deserved.
But, while scolding had its place, they still had to search for the person. So Fu Shinian didn’t let Su Mu go on talking. He had just reached out to grab Su Mu’s hand and was about to speak when a piercing screech of brakes came from the side of the square. As they both looked over, Rong Shen had already stepped out of the car, striding towards them in his black coat, the wind lifting its hem like the King of Hell returning from the underworld.
Especially the expression on his face, no matter how you looked at it, it seemed as though he was about to devour someone.
Fu Shinian watched Rong Shen with a slight frown, and when Rong Shen swung his fist aiming for Ji Nanfeng, Fu Shinian stepped in front of Rong Shen first, blocking his punch. Rong Shen’s gaze was as sharp as a torch, and Fu Shinian returned the cold stare without backing down:
"Now, even if you beat him to death, Jiang Bei still won’t be found. Instead of doing this, it’s better to find Jiang Bei first."
On hearing this, Rong Shen and Fu Shinian continued to standoff for a while. Rong Shen was unwilling to let it go, but Fu Shinian could not just watch as he really went to hit Ji Nanfeng. They seemed to have reached a stalemate when suddenly Su Mu’s phone ringtone broke the impasse.
At this time, the one who could call Su Mu was most likely Jiang Bei, so everyone calmed down and looked at Su Mu. Su Mu was excited as well, but the number displayed on the screen was not that of Jiang Bei, but Qiao Yu’s. If Qiao Yu was calling her instead of Fu Shinian at this time, there must be a reason.
Su Mu quickly answered the phone:
"Qiao Yu, is Xiaobei with you?"
Qiao Yu sighed softly at the other end of the line:
"She’s at the hospital."
When everyone arrived at the hospital, Qiao Yu was already waiting in the lobby. Perhaps even heaven knew that tonight was going to be chaotic because the hospital lobby was unusually quiet without the usual presence of patients, eerily silent. Ji Nanfeng was the first to rush in front of Qiao Yu, his face agitated:
"Where is Xiaobei? Where is she?"
Qiao Yu looked at him and glanced at everyone else behind him, an expression that was indescribably unsatisfied, but it was unclear whom his discontentment was directed at. Ignoring Ji Nanfeng’s question, he looked towards Su Mu and nodded slightly:
"Don’t worry, she’s fine. She was just involved in a resuscitation and is now a bit tired, sleeping in the rest room."
"Can I go see her?"
Qiao Yu nodded: "Go to the emergency room, someone will guide you there."
"Okay."
Su Mu immediately headed towards the emergency room without any hesitation. Ji Nanfeng also intended to go, but Qiao Yu stopped him: "She doesn’t want to see you."
Ji Nanfeng frowned.
Rong Shen also wanted to enter, but Qiao Yu stopped him as well: "Her, she doesn’t want to see you either."
Rong Shen wasn’t surprised. She had never shown him any mercy. He simply smiled: "Well, that’s fine. If she doesn’t want to see us, then it’s a good time to settle our scores in the meantime."
Now that Ji Nanfeng knew where Jiang Bei was and whether she was safe, a big stone in his heart was lifted, so he had other thoughts, such as dealing with Rong Shen. He had always had issues with Rong Shen, of course, he admits that most of it was because of Jiang Bei.
Hearing Rong Shen’s words, Ji Nanfeng also gently curved up the corner of his mouth:
"Between us? I haven’t even come knocking on your door, and you came looking for trouble. Rong Shen, you’re even more shameless than I thought."
Fu Shinian glanced at both of them and walked over to sit down on the bench in the hall, with no intention of intervening. Seeing this, Qiao Yu also walked over, letting them squabble. After all, it was a hospital, and even if they really did fight to death, they could get treated in the quickest time, without worrying about killing each other.
Ji Nanfeng was angry, and so was Rong Shen. The situation was tense and on the verge of eruption. At first, nobody gained an upper hand, but no one suffered either. But later, Rong Shen gained the advantage, landing several punches in Ji Nanfeng’s abdomen, until Ji Nanfeng curled up and fell to the ground, unable to stand up again.
After the brawl, Rong Shen was just slightly heavier in breath than before. Now looking at Ji Nanfeng on the ground, he sneered:
"Ji Nanfeng, you won’t have the chance to hurt Jiang Bei anymore. I gave you time to end whatever was between you two, but since you didn’t do it, don’t blame me for stepping in."
Ji Nanfeng was truly in extreme pain, his face color changing, but upon hearing this, he still forced himself to stand up from the ground, looking at Rong Shen and lightly laughing:
"What right do you have to say these words to me? Jiang Bei’s ex-boyfriend? I guess not, after all, from the very beginning, Jiang Bei was forced by you. Her father died because of you, leading to a shattered family. She should have had a happy life, yet everything turned upside down just for saving your life. Rong Shen, is this how you repay her with bloody lessons?"
Rong Shen was indifferent:
"And you? If I have nothing with Jiang Bei, what do you have with her?"
"We are married. She is carrying my child now. Isn’t that enough?" Ji Nanfeng looked at Rong Shen, his gaze as cold as ice: "I admit I’m not a good person either, but Rong Shen, if it hadn’t been for your forceful intrusion into Jiang Bei’s life in the beginning, she would never have chosen me."
"You think I don’t know that you wanted to set her free because of Jiang Bei’s father’s situation, as long as she married someone else, you wouldn’t bother her again. That’s why she desperately went on blind dates. With Jiang Bei’s qualifications, what kind of man couldn’t she find? Yet, not a single one agreed. Don’t tell me you didn’t intervene. You just wanted to force her back by your side, right? But you probably didn’t expect that I would get involved, and that Jiang Bei would marry me too."
Rong Shen looked at Ji Nanfeng without speaking, Ji Nanfeng scoffed:
"What? Did I hit the nail on the head? At the beginning, you did try to obstruct, but then you thought it might be good for Jiang Bei to learn a lesson, anyway, you had never planned to truly marry her. So even if she found another man, it seemed to matter little to you. But you didn’t expect that Jiang Bei would get pregnant, so you started pulling strings around me. Rong Shen, you’re not the only smart one in this world."
