Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law-Chapter 1286 - 1305: The Truth

"Of course, I remember! But what does this have to do with Wei Qin liking me?" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Of course, it does. Think about it, with the security of the Wei Family, do you really think you could have been so stealthy? The moment I climbed over the wall with you, I noticed that we had already been discovered."

Fu Xinwu’s face turned pale and then flushed as he awkwardly asked, "Are you saying Wei Qin has known all this time about me sneaking over walls?"

Nan Fei nodded decisively.

"It’s over! I’m so embarrassed, how can I face him now? My reputation will be ruined, and how will I ever hold my head up in Imperial City?" The more Fu Xinwu thought about it, the more humiliated he felt, wishing he could just disappear into a crack in the ground.

"Actually, it’s not a big deal at all! Where’s the shame? No shame whatsoever, it’s your uncle who’s truly embarrassing," Nan Fei tried to console him with a mix of laughter and tears.

"Really? My uncle is even more embarrassing than me?"

"Yep!" Nan Fei nodded decisively again, "That’s right! He not only climbs walls but also scales windows."

Hearing this, Fu Xinwu burst into laughter, beaming with glee, and chuckled, "Knowing that I’m not the only one comforts me. At least I have my uncle to back me up!"

"..." Nan Fei commented with a deep sigh, "It really does run in the family, doesn’t it!"

"But this still doesn’t prove that Wei Qin likes me!" Fu Xinwu was utterly lacking in self-confidence. Despite her good background, she definitely wasn’t conceited or egotistical. "The reason Wei Qin turns a blind eye could be out of respect for my uncle. I heard they’ve been close since childhood, and my uncle can get new weapons that others can’t. With such a solid relationship, he would at least save me some face."

Not that she wanted this saving face—her affection for Wei Qin had nothing to do with anyone else.

Nan Fei frowned thoughtfully, considering the possibility. But how would one explain the absence of glass shards on top of the wall?

She looked at Fu Xinwu’s troubled expression, thought about Bei Jiang’s consistent opposition, and ultimately chose to remain silent. If Bei Jiang didn’t want Xin Wu to like Wei Qin, it wouldn’t be right for her to disagree.

Perhaps Bei Jiang was right.

Given Wei Qin’s health condition and the situation of the Wei Family, they weren’t a suitable match for the hearty and forthright Fu Xinwu.

"Forget it! Come with me to the hospital and let’s see who’s so daring as to compete with me for someone." Fu Xinwu pulled Nan Fei out of the school gate, where a driver from the Fu Family was already waiting.

The distance from the military academy to the hospital was not far, and Fu Xinwu, who was a medical student, had been there countless times before. She had recently completed nearly half a year’s internship in the emergency center and immediately made her way to the staff rest room upon arriving at the hospital.

Nan Fei didn’t go in and waited at the door.

The emergency center and the inpatient department are not in the same building. Nan Fei walked out of the emergency center and stood at the entrance, staring blankly at the inpatient building.

Zhuanzhuan was still admitted there!

For four days now!

Four days ago, Zhuanzhuan stabbed himself, and she hadn’t visited since she brought him to the hospital. And it wasn’t just her—Jiang Yang hadn’t come once either.

Nan Fei couldn’t quite describe what she was feeling, just a sense of emptiness. At school, she had to adapt to a new environment, and she was busy striving to learn and didn’t have the time to think about these things. But now, in the tranquility, looking at the place so close yet so far, her heart just couldn’t settle down.
