Rebirth: Once Again With You-Chapter 597 Visitors (1)

Li Junjie pondered for a moment. "Well, the journal was inside Grandpa's room in his house before, but Father took it with him after I finished reading it. I don't know if he still keeps it or not."

Li Caiyi felt hopeful until a moment ago but immediately deflated in disappointment. If Li Jirong kept it, chances were high that he brought it with him when he left the house.

"Even if you have it, I don't think you will find anything useful there. Aside from briefly mentioning the research, Grandpa didn't write it in detail."

"Brother Jie, did you read everything beforehand?"

"Honestly, not everything. But as I said before, the book is in Father's hand. If there is a way to save Xiaohua written in that journal, then wouldn't Father already do it by now?"

Li Junjie knew nothing about Li Jirong's involvement with that organization so it made sense why he would think that way. For him, Li Jirong was a horrible father but not that ruthless in letting his daughter suffer from illness.

There must be a reason why Li Jirong took it. He didn't want Li Junjie to find out about it, so he kept the book hidden.

If that was the case, he probably had already disposed of the book. No one would deliberately keep something that would give their criminal act away.

Li Caiyi thought so hard until a deep frown formed on her face. Li Junjie flicked her on the forehead before she fell deeper into this topic.

"You aren't fully recovered yet. If you must think about it, at least do it after you heal."

"En. Thanks, Brother Jie. I will return to my room now."

Entering her room, Li Caiyi's mind was still filled with various thoughts. Then, her phone on the bed suddenly rang. It was from Shao Jingfei.

"Hello?" freℯ𝓌e𝚋𝐧𝘰vℯl.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"Caiyi, where are you right now?"

"I'm at my house right now? What's wrong?"

There was a brief silence from the other side before Shao Jingfei hesitantly said, "This is a random question, but have you heard something from Dai Zhiqiang as of late?"

Li Caiyi's heart skipped a beat for a moment. A gloominess crept up her eyes again. "It's rare for you to ask about him. Why?"

"Nothing. He hasn't come to school for so long. I was wondering if something happened to him and if you know about it."

As far as she could remember, Shao Jingfei and Dai Zhiqiang never interacted much. Although Dai Zhiqiang seemed very wary about Shao Jingfei, they were an acquaintance at best.

Except for Meng Renshu, no one knew that she had already broken up with Dai Zhiqiang. Honestly, she would rather not talk about it. Because her heart was still in so much pain whenever she recalled him.

"His father is sick, so he's busy working. I haven't heard much from him except that he is busy."

"Caiyi, are you sure about that?"

Li Caiyi could feel there was something off about Shao Jingfei today. "Jingfei, if you have something to say, then just say it directly. Don't beat around the bush."

"Huh? Oh no, I didn't mean that!" Shao Jingfei sounded flustered. "Sorry if I sound like I'm implying something. But I really am just curious, that's all."

"Really?" Li Caiyi asked dubiously. 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖

"Yes! When did I ever lie to you? Oh yeah, I remember I have to do something after this. Let's talk about your book next time. Bye!"

Shao Jingfei hung up the phone right after that. Li Caiyi looked at her phone weirdly when it suddenly rang again in her hand. This time, it was Meng Renshu. What great timing he had.

"Hello?"

"Xiaoyi, can I really visit you right now?"

Li Caiyi lay down on the bed. "Sure, why not? There is something I need to tell you too."

"Okay!" Meng Renshu said happily. "Is there something you want to eat? I will bring it with me."

"No need. I have mostly recovered anyway. When are you coming?"

"Anytime you want me to come, I'll immediately fly to your side."

Li Caiyi twitched because he suddenly became flirtatious with her. This person really didn't know when to give up. Even though she was already forthright with him last time about how her feelings wouldn't change.

But then again, could she really judge him? She was no better because she also stubbornly held on to her feelings for him for years before.

"Then, you can come once you are free. I want to rest some more, so I'll hang up now." Li Caiyi said hurriedly before hanging up.

Li Caiyi wasn't ready to think about anything unrelated to Li Chunhua's condition.

Meng Renshu moved fast. It hadn't been one hour since they finished their phone call, but he had already arrived at the Li family's house.

He bought a lot of premium quality fruits and healthy tonics for her. The amount was enough to fill their fridge to the brim.

"This is overboard. Do you know that?" Li Junjie grumbled as he stared at the pile of boxes at the entrance. How much time would it take to sort out all of them?

Meng Renshu laughed crisply. "I don't know which one is better since everything seems good, so I just bought everything."

Li Junjie was aware of his best friend's bad spending habits and decided not to comment. Beside him was Li Caiyi, who was flabbergasted by Meng Renshu's antics.

"Brother Renshu, I already said you don't have to bring me anything."

"Yeah, but it would be rude of me to visit a sick person without bringing anything. I heard they only picked the freshest and ripest of their fruits. Do you want me to peel it for you?"

"No, I'm fine," Li Caiyi replied wryly, feeling extremely burdened by his sticky pampering.

Meng Renshu didn't insist while still maintaining his wide smile as if he was in a good mood. "Why did you get out of bed while you were still sick? Let's return to your room and talk."

Li Junjie thought her sister would refuse, but unexpectedly she calmly accepted it.

"Brother Jie, we would be upstairs. Please take care of the gift for me."

"Thanks, Junjie!" Meng Renshu grinned before following Li Caiyi upstairs.

Li Junjie was left alone with a dumbfounded expression on his face.
