The time of the city

Chapter 186 Long time no see

The next day, Nan Feng woke up in the hospital.

"Hiss," he raised his hand to rub his heavy head, then slowly sat up from the bed. He Qingqing, who was dozing in the chair, heard the noise and suddenly opened her eyes. Joy instantly filled her eyes and she spoke anxiously.

"A Feng, you're awake. Are you feeling unwell?"

"Fortunately, why am I in the hospital?" Nan Feng frowned slightly and tried hard to recall, but he only vaguely remembered that he was beaten by Ni Jiamu in the bar and met Mo Yu. He could not remember the rest of the things clearly.

"Uncle Wu Kang called me. He said you were injured in the bar. I checked the surveillance footage and it was that bastard Ni Jiamu who did it. He's crazy. Also, why were you with the girl we met in the coffee shop that day?"

He Qingqing asked casually, a hint of inquiry flashing in her eyes. She actually knew the girl was Mo Yu, and she just wanted to test Nan Feng's thoughts.

"She's Ni Jiamu's sister," Nan Feng said, rubbing his hair irritably, his brows knitted into the shape of a "川" character. "Yesterday I found out I had some dealings with her before. Ni Jiamu even said I liked her before, but I can't remember it at all. But Grandpa clearly hates the Ni family, so why would I have any dealings with anyone from the Ni family?"

At this moment, Qiao Zhengrong walked slowly into the ward with the help of Wu Kang, leaning on a crutch.

"That's because she lied to you." Qiao Zhengrong's tone was heavy, his eyes filled with disgust. "The Ni family is the most disgusting. Ni Jiamu wanted to steal my Qiao Corporation's business secrets, so he sent his sister to seduce you. Ah Feng, you were young and naive, and you were deceived by Mo Yu. But then you discovered Mo Yu's intentions, had an argument with her, and on the way back you were kidnapped, injured, and lost your memory."

“How could this be…” Nan Feng lowered his eyes, his hands unconsciously clenching the quilt, his knuckles turning white from the force.

"How could Grandpa lie to you?" Qiao Zhengrong leaned heavily on his cane, his eyes wide open. "I didn't want to tell you the truth, but now that things have come to this, there's no need to hide it."

"Then what about what Ni said about Qiao stealing business secrets?" Nan Feng raised his head with confusion in his eyes.

Qiao Zhengrong sighed, his face filled with helplessness and heartache. "Originally, Qiao's wanted to do this project, but after you told Mo Yu, she revealed it to Ni Jiamu. At that time, Ni's and Lin's were good friends, and after hearing the news, they immediately began research and development. In the end, you discovered the truth and went to find Mo Yu. The next day, Ni's issued a statement accusing Qiao's of stealing secrets. I didn't clarify the matter because you were kidnapped on your way back. I was so focused on saving you that I didn't have the mood to clarify."

"I didn't expect that the brother and sister were so treacherous. I almost got fooled by them again." Nan Feng slammed the quilt with uncontrollable anger on his face.

"Afeng, it's not your fault. After listening to what Grandpa Qiao said, I was shocked." He Qingqing echoed from the side.

On the other hand, Mo Yu returned to class after a long leave and felt that everything was a little strange.

The course sounds difficult, and even my hands for drawing are unfamiliar.

After the morning classes ended and it was lunchtime, Mo Yu followed the crowd to the school cafeteria. She lined up at the window, waiting quietly, when she felt someone gently tap her shoulder. Mo Yu turned around and saw it was Gu Bai.

After not seeing each other for so long, and having experienced so many unpleasant things, Mo Yu had almost forgotten about him. This sudden encounter left her feeling a little bewildered. A flicker of embarrassment crossed her face, and her body stiffened unconsciously.

"Mo Yu, long time no see." Gu Bai was the first to break the silence, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes, as if he missed her and felt a little guilty.

Mo Yu simply nodded slightly and took two steps forward, putting some distance between them. She heard a faint sigh from behind her, but at that moment, her heart had already calmed down. She felt neither curious nor concerned.

After finishing her meal, Mo Yu saw an empty table not far away and was about to sit down when suddenly, a hand reached out to her.

"Mo Yu, this is the seat I reserved. You're not going to snatch everything from me, are you?"

It was Chen Xiangqin. She raised her chin slightly, with a hint of provocation in her eyes.

Mo Yu looked up and looked at Chen Xiangqin calmly: "I didn't see anything placed on it, and reserving seats in advance is a bad habit."

After saying that, she placed the plate on the table, sat down and began to eat, completely ignoring Chen Xiangqin who was standing beside her with an angry face.

"Xiangqin, it's time to eat. I've been looking for you for a long time."

At this moment, Gu Bai came over with two servings of food. When he saw Mo Yu again, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. A look of surprise appeared on his face, a hint of panic flashed in his eyes, and his lips parted slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but swallowed it back.

"Mo Yu took my seat. Gu Bai, please let her go. I want to sit here."

When Chen Xiangqin saw Gu Bai, she immediately changed her attitude, pulling the corner of Gu Bai's clothes, her voice coquettish and a little bit coquettish, with a hint of command.

"Xiangqin, I just brought the food over. How come Moyu took your seat? She queued before me and got the food first. I just saw you waiting for me over there, and I didn't see you trying to save a seat."

Gu Bai frowned slightly, with an embarrassment on his face, but his eyes unconsciously looked at Mo Yu, then quickly looked away.

"You're still thinking about Mo Yu, right? Gu Bai, you're such an ungrateful person! Have you forgotten who paid for your mother's medical expenses?"

Chen Xiangqin's expression changed instantly, and her voice became sharp and piercing, attracting many people in the cafeteria to look over.

Mo Yu suddenly lost her appetite and picked up her plate, heading for the food collection counter. After taking two steps, she heard the clatter of plates falling to the ground behind her. Mo Yu instinctively turned around and saw Chen Xiangqin picking up the plate and throwing it at Gu Bai.

"Stop eating, Gu Bai, you're a loser." Chen Xiangqin shouted while smashing the food, her face twisted with anger.

Gu Bai dodged frantically, and when he looked up, he met Mo Yu's gaze. His eyes instantly became evasive, and he quickly looked away, lowering his head, patting the food on his body with his hands, his movements flustered and at a loss.

"Did you hear what I said? You are still thinking about her, right?" Chen Xiangqin was like a madman, punching and hitting Gu Bai, slapping him one after another, and kicking him hard with her feet.

Mo Yu didn't read any further, she knew very well that this was Gu Bai's own choice.

After leaving the cafeteria, she had no classes in the afternoon, so she planned to go to the studio to paint for the whole afternoon to get a feel for it.
