Chapter 135: V35: Feng Chengjin! I am an adult, not a three-year-old little girl

Gu Zixuan felt something profound and looked up.

But what she met was his lowered gaze, revealing nothing.

Feeling a bit puzzled, she lightly furrowed her brows, and that inexplicable sense of familiarity lingered in her heart.

She couldn’t recall if she had truly met Feng Chengjin before, but there was a sense of déjà vu that sometimes made her feel not too unfamiliar when facing him alone, even feeling natural during his occasional touches and deep, contemplative gazes.

What was happening to her?

She shook her head and forced herself not to think about those jumbled thoughts, focusing instead on the Kongming Lock.

As time ticked away, she finally took it apart, but while disassembling the Kongming Lock was easy, assembling it back was tough, so her happiness was short-lived as she fell into deeper puzzlement.

Feng Chengjin had been smiling gently from across, watching until he noticed that Gu Zixuan had no clue at all.

He reached out, took three pieces, and set them up on the small table, "Now piece it together."

The gesture made Gu Zixuan’s heart tremble slightly. Looking at the set positions of the three stanchions, she glanced over at Feng Chengjin and then at the position of the wood he had placed.

After a long while, she attempted to rely on her memory from disassembling it earlier, taking a piece and trying to fit it.

The moment when the most challenging groove of the framework clicked together.

She suddenly realized, and a faint light shimmered in her autumn eyes, "So that’s how it is."

Feng Chengjin smiled, his shallow smile very charming.

Nodding slightly, he said nothing, only lifted his chin toward her, "Continue."

Gu Zixuan blushed, the previous frustration and agitation swept away, she became interested, saying "Oh," with a slight smile, she began to focus on assembling.

The Kongming Lock is actually a three-dimensional geometric shape, requiring spatial awareness and a certain memory ability to play.

Fortunately, Gu Zixuan had a good memory, and she excelled in spatial geometry in the past.

So she got the hang of it quickly.

However, even though Feng Chengjin had opened up the possibility of constructing the three-dimensional framework for her, this current piece was still difficult. It seemed Feng Chengjin had given her a high-end version, with each piece’s groove patterns, color, and depth being too similar. Wanting to quickly discern the order of the remaining thirty pieces was quite challenging for Gu Zixuan.

She built it one piece at a time...

Luckily, Feng Chengjin had considerable patience, as his long fingers hadn’t moved since he touched the original three-point framework.

Quietly and attentively like a dark knight guarding the princess.

Both of their heads were so close together due to the small table, almost forehead to forehead.

The atmosphere was filled with gentle breath, and above them, the light haloed down through their hair, casting mottled light and shadow.

In the silent night.

Mrs. Qin, having woken up from an early sleep, couldn’t help but give a knowing, deep smile upon witnessing this scene.

Turning over, she went back to sleep.

With no one likely to intrude, Feng Chengjin’s gaze fell even more frequently on Gu Zixuan’s face.

He looked at her face, her eyes, the occasional childlike smile at the corner of her lips, his lips curling deeply, and finally, he gazed at her heart, reflecting on her heart.

Gu Zixuan didn’t sense anything, only trying not to disturb Mrs. Qin’s rest by speaking less.

Except for a necessary few whispers.

"Should this piece go here?"

Feng Chengjin: "I think... this might not be quite right."

"Don’t speak, I remember this piece was taken out from here earlier."

Feng Chengjin laughed, curling his lips, "Oh, then continue."

The night, gradually deepening and calming.

When it came time for the final check to ask patients’ families to leave and to close the inpatient department, the head nurse accompanied by nurses doing rounds passed by 830. Seeing the harmonious couple quietly sitting beneath the soft light of a single lamp.

So peaceful, so harmonious, as beautiful as an old photograph carrying memories of a bygone era, like a dreamy postcard from a church.

Slightly stunned, after a long while, the head nurse glanced at the near noiseless atmosphere between the two, instructing the young nurses, "Check elsewhere first, come back here last."

"Okay." The young nurses were so full of girlhood sentiment that they were almost melting, casting envious glances inside and tactfully leaving.

...

In the following days, Feng Chengjin would occasionally visit. However, the timing was inconsistent; sometimes in the morning, sometimes at noon, sometimes at night, but almost always perfectly avoiding the times when He Qimo and Yu Yuanshen came to visit.

He didn’t do much either, just came to see her. Sometimes he’d stay for about 10 or 20 minutes, sometimes for an hour.

He spoke very little. Most of the time, he’d sit quietly and watch her, check the recovery of her foot, then leave.

His unobtrusive manner made Gu Zixuan feel comfortable, knowing that he was also guilty of having caused her foot injury. Facing his occasional physical contact, like holding her to help her sit up or taking her to the bathroom, she didn’t resist much.

Everything was quite fine, except...

On the fourth day at the hospital, faced with the increasingly busy Brother Yu, who seemed to be doing unknown things all day, and He Qimo, who now met her with silence and couldn’t stay long, she didn’t have much emotional fluctuation.

But seeing the iPad/mini that appeared in front of her, along with the unusual movies downloaded inside.

She truly raised her eyes in shock, "Are you treating me like a little girl?"

This was so bizarre. After solving the Kongming lock with 33 dragon bones and spending a day and night assembling it, Feng Chengjin has always brought some strange things when he comes to see her in the past few days.

Like the handmade clay that children aged 4-8 play with, or the coloring art books that only little girls are interested in.

Although... to some extent, these things are quite time-consuming. Once focused, one would find time flies quickly and the monotonous hospital life alone doesn’t feel too lonely.

But looking at the content inside the iPad/mini now, Gu Zixuan truly felt a strong mood that she couldn’t keep calm about.

To a certain extent, there was a feeling like a small curly-haired animal in a zoo bleating joyfully.

Feng Chengjin smiled; sitting opposite her, he was wearing a dark khaki gray suit today, which inherently exuded high-end luxury, and on his wrist, a silver Patek Philippe watch further accentuated his innate aristocratic temperament to the fullest extent.

Tapping his fingertip slightly, he said, "Frozen, it’s quite good. I saw Cheng Yue watching this animation at home when she’s free. You should still be able to watch it at your age."

Gu Zixuan truly was embarrassed, her vision darkened slightly.

Looking over the series of Disney Barbie princess animations packed, she lightly bit her red lip and firmly returned it, "No, thank you."

Feng Chengjin chuckled lowly, "Have a look."

"I really don’t want to watch it." She pushed it back.

"Really, have a look." He pushed it back again.

Gu Zixuan angrily pursed her lips, raised her eyes to glare at him, "Feng Chengjin! I’m an adult, not a three-year-old girl, I..."

Before she could finish, she felt Feng Chengjin lift her leg and waist and move her to the other side of the bed, then sat beside her in the same direction.

Propping up the iPad/mini cover stand, he laid it flat on Gu Zixuan’s leg and opened Frozen, arms folded, "I’ll watch it with you."

Gu Zixuan’s eyes widened, almost startled by Feng Chengjin’s act and falling off the side of the bed.

But with the Disney music playing, and Feng Chengjin’s focused gaze, she noticed he wasn’t joking at all!

He watched very intently, his stern expression entirely unlike watching an animation, but rather like watching the TV show House of Cards.

Speechlessly, she inserted her fingers into her hair, pushing it from front to back, paused, took a deep breath, and obediently leaned back, watching idly.

As time went by and the plot unfolded, Gu Zixuan watched the little princess named Anna singing piece by piece, growing up in a strange magical world and, faced with her longing to see her sister, hitting walls repeatedly, persevering time and time again without giving up, slowly becoming engrossed by the storyline.

Watching further... she was deeply contemplative about Elsa’s defiance after freezing herself when injured...

Later, she hadn’t even noticed when Feng Chengjin, sitting next to her, left.

Only aware that when nearing the grand finale, facing Anna’s anger after being used by some prince, then seeing the touching ordinary love found with Kristoff, her eyes suddenly became uncontrollably warm and wet.

At this moment, Yu Yuanshen walked in.

Eyes met, Gu Zixuan looked at the opposite time and realized it unknowingly was already afternoon at 5, her heart trembled slightly.

Yu Yuanshen then stared at the moisture on her eyes, then at the screen playing in front of her on the iPad/mini, when shock gathered in his brown eyes, his heart felt a heavy tremor!

He had come from battling Feng Chengjin today over a fierce stock market conflict.

Today’s battlefield was even more intense; Feng Chengjin’s aggressive methods occasionally made him feel this man’s heart was like a rock, calculating every step against others without any humanity at all.

Prying an edge and observing the whole, faced with these increasingly excessive methods today, he also issued warnings that their actions were already considered illegal, and if continued, could draw the Securities and Exchange Commission’s attention and investigation, at least resulting in fines and referral to the public security bureau, at most facing criminal charges!

But none of that made Feng Chengjin restrain himself.

Yu Yuanshen felt that Feng Chengjin was probably the kind of person who would do anything to achieve his goals, arrogantly infuriating everyone, and increasingly determined not to let such a ruthless person get close to Gu Zixuan.

Yet never expected...

Moreover, looking at the girl who had almost the same mold form in his memory from childhood to grown-up, for the first time, he suddenly realized it felt like he had never really seen her...

His brows and lashes trembled as he couldn’t utter a single word.
