Dandy Pill God-Chapter 276: Pouring Out One’s Heart

In the taxi, Shen Yuyan sat next to Zhu Fei.

She quietly observed Zhu Fei sitting beside her, her face thoughtful.

As the nominal head of Donglin City’s Shen Corporation and the president of a large business, Shen Yuyan was no naive girl. frёeωebɳovel.com

On the contrary, her intellect, her abilities, and her tactics were famously strong throughout Shen Corporation and the entire business community of Donglin City.

After the recent incident, Shen Yuyan finally began to realize that Zhu Fei, who seemed somewhat impulsive on the surface, might indeed be more complex than he appeared.

"Ahem, Sister Shen, could you please not look at me with that kind of expression?"

After a brief silence, Zhu Fei, feeling somewhat uneasy under Shen Yuyan’s gaze, touched his nose and gave a wry smile.

"Hehe, you have the nerve to say that about me? I think you are the one who has been hiding too much!"

Hearing Zhu Fei’s words, a smile finally emerged on Shen Yuyan’s previously pensive face. Her beautiful eyes, looking at Zhu Fei, seemed to have an added hint of amusement.

Zhu Fei was suddenly at a loss for words.

All this time, it had clearly been Shen Yuyan who disregarded his words, and now, ironically, she seemed to be the one making accusations first.

But Zhu Fei also knew that when it came to women, especially beautiful women, logic often didn’t stand a chance.

So, in the next moment, Zhu Fei deliberately changed the subject, "By the way, Sister Shen, why are we going to your home now? Weren’t we supposed to go to the Bright Moon Club for that banquet?"

Ever since they left the airport and boarded the taxi, Shen Yuyan had directed the driver to go to the Blue Sea and Blue Sky District, where she currently lived, prompting Zhu Fei’s question.

Hearing Zhu Fei’s question, Shen Yuyan, seemingly understanding his intentions, couldn’t help but give him an annoyed glance.

However, she didn’t expose him and, instead, smiled and counter-asked, "How can I take a bath and change clothes if we don’t go home? Do you expect me to attend the banquet in this outfit?"

"Uh..."

Zhu Fei was speechless again, looking at Shen Yuyan’s currently playful expression.

For some reason, he felt an inexplicable itch in his heart, almost wishing he could give a few hard swats on her elegantly skirt-clad behind.

Seeing how her few words had made Zhu Fei somewhat frustrated, Shen Yuyan couldn’t help but laugh "giggle."

After laughing, Shen Yuyan suddenly seemed to think of something, and her initially cheerful expression unexpectedly darkened slightly.

She sighed and then shifted the conversation, "Zhu Fei, I was just joking with you earlier, and I hope you don’t mind."

She paused briefly, then Shen Yuyan continued, "Actually, my going home has nothing to do with what I jokingly said earlier; I want to go to see my grandfather."

"See your grandfather?"

Zhu Fei was taken aback, not understanding what Shen Yuyan’s sudden change of topic meant.

Could it be that her grandfather lived with her? Zhu Fei felt a hint of curiosity.

"Yes, my grandfather is in a vegetative state and needs daily care. I’ve been away from Donglin City for quite some time now, and I really need to check on him first, as I wouldn’t feel at ease otherwise."

Shen Yuyan nodded her head, a bitter smile gradually spreading across her face, resembling irony yet also self-derision.

She continued, "Zhu Fei, do you know? For such a long time, I have been striving to manage the company, all in the hope that, one day, when my grandfather experiences a miracle, he would be able to see the business empire he once created still possessing its original glory."

"But now, after all this time, not only does my grandfather’s illness show no signs of improvement, but I also have no confidence in keeping the company safe. I really don’t know what the meaning of my past efforts and current perseverance is."

At this point, Shen Yuyan seemed to be haunted by past memories, her eyes, always filled with confidence and strength, now faintly dimmed.

Watching Shen Yuyan’s suddenly shifting emotions and listening to the inner feelings she had just expressed, something within Zhu Fei’s heart seemed lightly stirred, evoking in him a sense of empathy and heartache.

After a brief silence between them, Zhu Fei finally took the initiative to break it:

"Sister Shen, I believe the effort you’ve put in over these years won’t be in vain. I think that even if your grandfather wakes up, when he learns about your contribution over these years, even if you haven’t succeeded yet, he will be proud of your strength."

Seemingly not expecting Zhu Fei to say such a thing, Shen Yuyan couldn’t help but turn her head in surprise, gazing at Zhu Fei and muttered:

"Really?"

"Mm, definitely," Zhu Fei nodded earnestly, then paused slightly before saying again, "Additionally, you must have seen my medical skills on the plane. If you trust me, let me check on your grandfather once we return."

Shen Yuyan’s eyes instantly brightened, she couldn’t help looking at Zhu Fei with some hopefulness, her tone slightly excited:

"Zhu Fei, you have a way to treat my grandfather?"

Zhu Fei’s expression suddenly stiffened, but eventually, he gritted his teeth and said, "Mm, although I’m not entirely sure, I can assure you that I will do my utmost."

Zhu Fei was well aware that his grandfather’s comatose state was essentially a matter of the soul level.

This kind of issue was not only a challenge for the entire modern medical field but also for the Cultivation World.

If Shen Yuyan’s grandfather’s condition had been a short-term issue, then Zhu Fei would have been completely confident in waking him from the coma.

However, from what Shen Yuyan had just described, her grandfather’s illness was feared to have been far more than just a year or two.

Under such circumstances, it might really be troublesome for Zhu Fei to completely cure him.

Regardless, since he had already promised Shen Yuyan, he would, as he had just mentioned, do his utmost to awaken her grandfather from the coma when the time comes.

Zhu Fei did this not for any other reason, but simply to help a friend.

"Thank you, no matter the final outcome, Zhu Fei, I must thank you."

It seemed as if Shen Yuyan, sensing Zhu Fei’s difficulty, had seemingly returned to her usual cheerful self in an instant, smiling sincerely as she thanked Zhu Fei.

...

"Creak—"

About half an hour later, the taxi finally braked outside the Blue Sea and Blue Sky District.

Zhu Fei and Shen Yuyan paid the fare and got out of the car, then walked directly toward a luxurious apartment building with a European-style exterior.
