Chapter 197

While she was reading, the family housekeeper knocked on the door and entered, "Miss Li, there\'s a guest downstairs. Madam is asking you to come down."

Shi Li responded with an "Oh," placed a bookmark between the pages she was reading, and followed the housekeeper downstairs.

She was puzzled, wondering what kind of guest would require her presence.

Logically, family guests were friends of Huang Jie and Shi\'s father, and they should be enough to entertain them. There was no need to call her down as well.

Could it be that relatives from her grandmother\'s side had come, so Huang Jie wanted her to come downstairs?

It wasn\'t until she saw the person sitting upright on the sofa that Shi Li seemed to understand why Huang Jie had called her down.

The visitor was Feng Yunhe. Huang Jie, knowing her daughter liked him, wanted to make her happy and create an opportunity for Shi Li and Feng Yunhe to spend time together.

But Shi Li\'s mind was occupied with another question, [Haven\'t I got the time wrong? Shouldn\'t he be lying in the hospital right now? How can he be running around intact?]

Huang Jie politely inquired about Feng\'s Mother\'s current health condition, and Feng Yunhe was answering her question when he heard Shi Li\'s inner thoughts at the same time.

Hearing her daughter coming downstairs, Huang Jie waved her over, "Li, come sit here. Didn\'t you want to see Yunhe? He came to visit you today."

This was, of course, an exaggeration from Huang Jie. Feng Yunhe\'s reason for the visit wasn\'t to see Shi Li, but to deliver a batch of fresh vegetables from his mother\'s family estate. He was delivering them to Eldest Aunt Shi and happened to bring some for Shi Li\'s family as well.

All of this was meant to emphasize that the delivery was incidental, not specifically for Shi Li.

Of course, his initial intention was to give them to Shi Li, to express his gratitude towards her.

Because of Shi Li\'s warning, he had avoided a catastrophe.

Instead, his father had been in a car accident. Although there was no life-threatening danger, he had suffered a fractured forearm due to the impact and had severe concussion.

He couldn\'t return to the company to handle affairs for a while, just like in ancient times when an emperor suddenly fell ill or had to leave for business, and the crown prince would take over. The crown prince could gain more power through this regency and place his own people in key positions.

Although times had changed, the situation was similar.

Shi Li had not only helped him avoid a disaster but had also done him a great favor.

Although Feng\'s Father\'s car accident essentially had nothing to do with Shi Li, it was caused by Feng\'s Father rushing to the Police Station to bail out Liang Rongrong, driving carelessly in the rain, and urging the driver to go faster.

It was an external cause for the accident, plus his own recklessness.

Feng Yunhe was truly grateful, but he should perhaps be more thankful to Liang Rongrong. Although Liang Rongrong hadn\'t saved his life like in the previous life, she had indeed helped him on another level.

[Huh?]

If this phrase had been just a single syllable, Feng Yunhe wouldn\'t have been able to sense the question mark filling Shi Li\'s heart at that moment.

But with the next sentence, Feng Yunhe could vaguely feel Shi Li\'s disdain towards him.

[Why did he come?]

Shi Li was very disdainful in her heart, but she put on a very happy face, "Brother Yunhe, you\'re here! Did you come to see me?"

Without asking, she knew that Feng Yunhe definitely didn\'t come to see her. Shi Li said this just to annoy Feng Yunhe.

Of course, usually when Feng Yunhe appeared, it was never for Shi Li, but now the situation had changed. It was different from before, he indeed came to thank Shi Li, but he couldn\'t say it explicitly to avoid Shi Li discovering anything. He could only repeat the reason he had given to Huang Jie earlier.

Shi Li didn\'t care why he came, but her facial expression showed some disappointment, "Ah, so you didn\'t come to see me. I\'m so sad, what should I do?"

Sitting not far away, Huang Jie\'s expression also showed how sad and helpless she felt. Her precious daughter\'s cheap behavior in front of Feng Yunhe made her want to find a crack in the ground to slip into.

Huang Jie covered her face with one hand, embarrassedly lifting a glass of water to her lips.

Considering her persona, Shi Li sat directly on the sofa next to Feng Yunhe, with only two or three centimeters between them.

Sometimes she deliberately leaned towards Feng Yunhe, getting even closer to him, at times less than a centimeter away.

However, Shi Li was very annoyed by being too close to unfamiliar men. Even to maintain her persona and complete her task, she absolutely couldn\'t sell her soul to the devil and go against her own will.

So when she leaned close to Feng Yunhe, she never actually touched his body, not even his clothes.

Huang Jie, sitting in a single sofa on the other side, wasn\'t close enough to notice this detail. She just felt that her daughter\'s behavior wasn\'t very appropriate, and that the Feng boy looked a bit pitiful.

In the past, Feng Yunhe always kept his distance from Shi Li\'s approaches, feeling it was a form of harassment.

This time, since Shi Li had helped him greatly, Feng Yunhe didn\'t directly avoid her.

From Huang Jie\'s perspective, it seemed they were very close, but Feng Yunhe could feel that Shi Li wasn\'t touching him.

Feng Yunhe raised an eyebrow, feeling that there was some discrepancy from what he had imagined.

Shi Li didn\'t wait for Feng Yunhe to move away, which was a bit strange today, but maintaining this posture was also very tiring.

She couldn\'t help but complain in her heart, [Oh, why isn\'t he leaving yet? I\'m so tired, I want to go back and rest]

Feng Yunhe realized that he might not understand girls very well. It seemed that Shi Li didn\'t like him as much as she showed.

It was possible that although Shi Li liked him, when she was with him, she was constantly thinking about going back to her room to rest?

Although this didn\'t make much logical sense and couldn\'t be clearly explained, there seemed to be no other reason besides this.

As for the first possibility, that Shi Li didn\'t like him at all, that didn\'t make sense either.

Who would force themselves to like someone they didn\'t like, constantly trying to curry favor in front of him, and even accepting his cold face?

If there was something to gain from him, then it would be understandable.

But the Shi family\'s situation was not inferior to his family, and Shi Li was the only daughter, growing up with countless love and pampering. She had no need to force herself to curry favor just to gain benefits from him.

This was very unreasonable.

Shi Li had already used up her daily three tricks of calling "Brother Yunhe," and since Feng Yunhe hadn\'t run away as she expected, she was at a loss for what to do next.

Her level in this shameless behavior of clinging to men was limited. Usually, before she could even call out "Brother Yunhe" for the second time, Feng Yunhe would automatically move eight zhang away from her, leaving no need for her to use any more tricks.

Now, without any other tactics, Shi Li began to show a polite yet awkward smile. Tormenting others was also a skill, but unfortunately, her cultivation in this area was not yet proficient.

At this moment, it fully demonstrated that your mother is still your mother.

Seeing that her daughter suddenly had nothing to say, Huang Jie continued the previous topic. Just before Shi Li came downstairs, she had been chatting with Feng Yunhe about Feng\'s Mother\'s health condition and what she did for fun at home.

Feng Yunhe answered each question.

Huang Jie then politely said, "When you have time, go shopping and watch plays with your mother. I remember your mother used to love watching plays."

"Thank you so much. My mother is very bored at home usually. If she had a friend to accompany her out more often, I\'m sure she would be very happy."

Huang Jie then said, "That\'s great, I\'ll find time to make plans with your mother."

Feng Yunhe said, "It might not work in the near future. My father is in the hospital, so my mother might need to take care of him there."

Oh?

Huang Jie and Shi Li, the mother-daughter pair, suddenly sat up straight.

Huang Jie asked with concern, "Is there something wrong with Mr. Feng\'s health? Is it serious?" She hoped it was.

As a filial son, Feng Yunhe timely showed a sorrowful look, "He was in a car accident last night. He\'s not in serious danger, just some minor injuries. He needs to recuperate in the hospital for a while."

Shi Li: ? Wasn\'t it supposed to be you? How did it become him?
