"Why are you laughing? I'm asking you something!"
Seeing the uncontrollable smile on Wu Jun's face, Duan Mufeng frowned and scolded with feigned dissatisfaction.
"Didn't Miss Xu tell you?"
Wu Jun coughed awkwardly, and then asked with some confusion.
"What did you say? What happened?"
Duanmu Feng frowned and asked hurriedly.
That kind of conditioned reflex concern may not have even been noticed by him, but Wu Jun saw it all.
"Oh, it's actually nothing serious. It's just that Miss Xu's mother has been ill recently, so in addition to taking care of you, she also has to take care of her mother. Plus she has to work in the training class, so she is very busy every day."
Wu Jun said immediately.
"Sick?! Is it serious?"
Duanmu Feng was stunned for a moment and asked immediately.
"It's not serious. I just have a cold. Doctor Sun has checked it and prescribed medicine."
"But after all, I am older and it is the glacier season, so my recovery is slower. It is reasonable for Miss Xu to be so worried."
Wu Jun explained seriously.
"I know, it's okay, go about your business."
Duan Mufeng was relieved, waved his hand, and said slowly.
Wu Jun agreed, glanced at Duanmu Feng intentionally or unintentionally, turned around and left, with the meaningful smile once again showing at the corner of his mouth.
In fact, the entire safe house and even the entire City of Hope knew about the ambiguous relationship between Duan Mufeng and Xu Qing, and everyone wanted to see them together.
Duan Mufeng leaned against the bed quietly, thinking deeply, then turned sideways and picked up the cigarette case from the bedside table, and slowly took out one.
But just when he was about to light it, the right hand holding the lighter suddenly paused, and then he immediately got out of bed and walked quickly to the door.
Because the series of movements were so series and rapid, I couldn't help but feel dizzy as soon as I reached the door, so I could only stop and calm down.
Although a long time has passed, the last time he forcibly sacrificed ten years of his life to train ten demon disciples did cause considerable damage to his body, and he has not fully recovered yet.
Fortunately, the City of Hope was safe and sound during this period, and no further troubles occurred. Otherwise, given his physical condition, his strength would have been greatly reduced.
After holding on to the door frame and rubbing his forehead, Duanmu Feng gradually calmed down and walked forward again, all the way to the fifth floor.
Soon, Duan Mufeng came to the room where Xu Qing's parents lived and gently knocked on the door.
"Who?"
As soon as the knock on the door fell, Xu Qing's voice came from the room.
"I."
Duanmu Feng responded casually.
As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened with a swish from the inside, and then he saw Xu Qing standing at the door with a surprised look on her face, looking at Duan Mufeng in disbelief as she came to the door.
Seeing Xu Qing appear, Duan Mufeng's face subconsciously revealed a warm smile.
"Feng Shuai, why are you here?"
"Your body hasn't recovered yet, why are you running around?"
Xu Qing asked with surprise on her face, and there seemed to be a hint of worry and reproach in her voice.
"I heard that my aunt was sick, so I came over to check on her."
Duanmu Feng said with a smile.
"My mother is fine. She just had a cold. She is much better now. How can it be as serious as yours?"
Xu Qing shook her head and said, looking at Duan Mufeng up and down, her eyes full of worry.
"Is Feng Shuai here? Come in quickly!"
At this time, Xu Qing's father in the room quickly came to the door and greeted him with a smile.
"Hello."
Duan Mufeng smiled, nodded slightly to Xu Qing's father, and said hello.
"You kid, what are you doing blocking the door? Hurry up and let Feng Shuai come in and sit down."
With a smile on his face, Xu's father pushed Xu Qing aside and greeted her warmly.
Duan Mufeng smiled and nodded, looking at Xu Qing who was looking at his father reproachfully.
Xu Qing noticed Duan Mufeng's gaze, sighed helplessly in her heart, and had no choice but to reach out and help Duan Mufeng into the room.
"I'm not that fragile."
Duan Mufeng smiled bitterly and said softly, but he did not break away from Xu Qing's support, but felt warm in his heart.
"It's Feng Shuai who's here. I heard from Xiaoqing that you're still in bed and recuperating, aren't you? We should be visiting you. How can I let you come to see me?"
Seeing Duan Mufeng enter the room, Xu's mother was full of apologies. As she spoke, she struggled to sit up from the bed.
"Auntie, you don't have to get up. Just lie down. It's your duty to visit you. You're welcome."
Duan Mufeng hurriedly took two steps forward and carefully helped Xu's mother lie down again, with a sincere smile on his face.
"Thank you Feng Shuai."
Xu's mother smiled gratefully and thanked her heartily.
"How are you? Are you feeling better? If not, I'll ask Sun Hui to come and take a look again."
Duanmu Feng looked at Xu's mother's slightly haggard face and asked with concern.
"It's much better now. It's nothing serious. Besides, the weather is not good now. It's normal to have a headache and a cold. Let Feng Shuai worry about it."
"On the contrary, you, who have worked so hard all day long, should take more rest."
Mother Xu smiled and comforted.
"Thank you for your concern, auntie, I'm fine."
Duan Mufeng smiled, nodded, and said softly.
Xu Qing stood aside silently, watching the cordial and warm conversation between Duan Mufeng and his mother, staring at Duan Mufeng with blank eyes.
She had never seen Feng Shuai be so gentle to anyone, and it seemed that he suddenly didn't recognize Feng Shuai.
"Hey, in fact, there is nothing serious about her. It's just that before the end of the world, she liked to eat dumplings every time she got sick. A meal of dumplings is more effective than any panacea. The dumplings cure her illness every time."
"But now is the end of the world. How can we eat dumplings? It's good if we can have a full stomach."
At this moment, Xu's father couldn't help but complained, looking helpless.
"Dad, why are you talking about this? Mom is almost healed, isn't she?"
Xu Qing glanced at her father and said slowly.
She didn't want her father's words to misunderstand Duanmu Feng as her father complaining about the difficult conditions in the City of Hope.
Father Xu waved his hand, stopped talking, and sat aside silently.
However, Duan Mufeng, who was standing by the bed, couldn't help but feel something in his heart after hearing what Xu's father said.
"Feng Shuai, stop standing, sit down quickly."
"Xiao Qing, what are you doing standing still? Hurry up and bring the chair over."
Mother Xu urged her daughter with a smile on her face.
"No, Auntie, I just came to see you. I'll be relieved to make sure you're okay. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Xu Qing was just about to move the stool when she saw Duan Mufeng waved his hand to stop him and said slowly.
"That's right, you are so busy, how can you have time to sit down and listen to our chatter."
Mother Xu smiled, nodded, and said slowly.
Duan Mufeng smiled, said goodbye to Xu Qing's parents, and turned to leave.
Xu Qing followed and sent Duanmufeng outside the door.
"Feng Shuai, I'm sorry. What my dad just said was not a complaint. Don't take it to heart."
Xu Qing looked at Duanmu Feng and said with some embarrassment.
"You're overthinking it. Okay, I'll leave first. You go back to spend time with your parents."
Duan Mufeng smiled and shook his head, then turned and walked towards the elevator entrance.
After Xu Qing watched Duanmu Feng for a while, she turned around and returned to the room with some anxiety.
"Wu Jun, come to my room right away!"
After confirming that Xu Qing had returned to the room, Duan Mufeng immediately spoke through the intercom.
Soon, as soon as Duan Mufeng returned to his room, Wu Jun knocked on the door and rushed over.
"Feng Shuai, what's wrong? What happened?"
As soon as he entered the door, Wu Jun asked anxiously, thinking something had happened.
"Prepare some flour and meat filling for me, right away."
Duan Mufeng glanced at Wu Jun and said in a deep voice.
"ah?!"
Upon hearing Duan Mufeng's answer, Wu Jun was stunned for a moment, with a puzzled expression on his face.
"Deaf?"
Duanmu Feng asked dissatisfiedly.
"What do you want noodles and meat fillings for?"
Wu Jun asked in confusion.
"Make dumplings!"
Duanmu Feng said without thinking.
When he heard the three words "making dumplings", Wu Jun was completely stunned on the spot, because he really couldn't imagine what it would be like when Feng Shuai, who was so frightened by the enemy, was making dumplings.
Because he couldn't imagine it, when he heard the words noodles and meat fillings, he didn't immediately associate these two things with making dumplings.
"Ah what?! Go quickly!"
Duan Mufeng looked at the shocked Wu Jun and urged him impatiently.
"yes!"
Wu Jun came to his senses, immediately agreed, turned around and walked out quickly.
But although he had already started to act, the shock and confusion on his face could not dissipate. However, he soon realized that Feng Shuai's abnormal behavior at this time might have something to do with Xu Qing...
