Chapter 344 Yi Fanxi's Visit (3)
Yi Fanxi slowly closed her eyes and made a wish, her long eyelashes casting shadows on her lower eyelids.
This man is really handsome, with fair skin, a slender face, large and deep eyes, a high nose bridge, and naturally red lips. Coupled with his tall and well-proportioned figure, he looks exactly like a high-quality idol straight out of a TV show.
Yan Zuozuo was somewhat stunned until Yi Fanxi blew out the candles. She smiled shyly and presented him with the cut cake.
Yi Fanxi looked at Yan Zuozuo with a somewhat unfocused gaze, then lowered his eyes and said, "Thank you for your trouble."
"Why are you being so polite? We're friends. Come on, have some cake."
Yi Fanxi nodded quietly, took a bite of the cake, and the sweet taste filled his mouth. He said, "I haven't celebrated my birthday since my mother passed away."
Yan Zuozuo was taken aback. Perhaps it was the atmosphere, but she suddenly felt a little sad.
Yi Fanxi took another bite, chewing slowly, clearly enjoying it. She quickly finished the cake and said slowly, "She also loved baking fruitcakes, arranging them into different shapes. There were roses, hearts, and even a couple dancing. She was a woman who loved to fantasize, always feeling that the world was full of beauty..."
Yan Zuozuo laughed: "Women are all like that."
Yi Fanxi glanced at her, her every move carrying an elegant sadness. "But her dreams were all destroyed by a man. She died in his arms to save him, while he lives a good life, surrounded by women, and doesn't even remember the anniversary of my mother's death!"
As he said this, a sinister glint flashed in his eyes, sending a chill down Yan Zuozuo's spine. She thought for a moment and said, "Women are all like this; when they fall in love, everything is theirs. Your father may not have been good enough to your mother, but your mother, such a sweet woman, must have felt sweet in her love for your father."
Yi Fanxi looked at her with slight surprise, then a mocking smile appeared on his lips, "Are all women this stupid?"
Yan Zuozuo pondered for a moment, then smiled faintly, “This is not stupidity. At the very least, I think I feel the same way as your mother. As long as I think of the man I love, I will feel happy even if he is not by my side. This has nothing to do with being stupid or not.”
Just like during the days Chi Moqing was away, she missed him, longed for him, and hoped he would return every day. It was precisely this longing that sustained her as she continued to wait. Because she loved him, she believed in him, and believed he would definitely come back.
She wasn't sure if every woman felt this way, but she did, and she thought Yi Fanxi's mother must have felt the same way.
Yi Fanxi looked at Yan Zuozuo with a meaningful gaze, just like the smile on her mother's face back then. Even though that man wasn't worth it, she still waited for him wholeheartedly.
"You're still young and don't understand adult feelings. When Xiao Fanxi grows up and falls in love with a girl, he'll understand how his mother feels. Just thinking about him will make you feel sweet."
Things have changed, but his mother's gentle voice still lingers in his mind, as if it were yesterday.
Looking at Yan Zuozuo, and hearing the same words as his mother, Yi Fanxi opened the box hidden deep in his heart. His mother's laughter and tears felt like a heavy stone pressing down on him, making it hard to breathe.
Over the years, his longing for his mother has only grown stronger; so too has his hatred for that man.
He clenched his fists tightly, his breathing suddenly becoming rapid. Yan Zuozuo was startled and quickly called out to him, "Yi Fanxi, Yi Fanxi..."
Yi Fanxi was stunned, as if he could see his mother's anxious eyes, and his vision blurred. He suddenly grabbed Yan Zuozuo's hand, opened his mouth, wanting to speak, but no sound came out.
Yan Zuozuo felt pain from being grabbed and tried to pull her hand away. "Yi Fanxi, are you alright? Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
When he was a child, his mother was just as worried when he was sick...
"Yi Fanxi, Yi Fanxi..."
The incessant volume of sound entered his mind, and the vague meaning gradually became clear. Yan Zuozuo's image also became clear, and his nerves suddenly tightened, a feeling of loneliness and desolation seeping into every pore.
It took Yi Fanxi quite a while to recover. His lips twitched slightly, and he turned his face away somewhat embarrassed. "I'm sorry, I lost my composure." He quickly let go of Yan Zuozuo's hand.
Yi Fanxi, who was always calm and composed, showed her panic at this moment, which Yan Zuozuo noticed. "Yi Fanxi, please accept my condolences. Also, although your mother died because of your father, she must have been willing to die, and she felt happy even in death."
"Fanxi, don't cry. I feel so happy that you were willing to die for your father. It's just that I feel sorry for you. Be a good girl..."
Yi Fanxi narrowed his eyes. Wait a minute, why does Yan Zuozuo look so much like her mother? Could it be that she is the girl her mother likes, so she brought her to his side?
Although he found it absurd, he was unconsciously drawn to Yan Zuozuo. She always said the same things as her mother and made the same expressions. How could there be so many coincidences in the world? Perhaps he could believe in miracles.
Yan Zuozuo is the woman his mother brought to him!
Yi Fanxi raised his eyes, looking at Yan Zuozuo with burning eyes, all his composure and indifference seemed to crumble instantly.
Yan Zuozuo noticed something was wrong with Yi Fanxi and was shocked. That look in his eyes... was too abnormal!
It felt like they were about to devour her whole; she was terrified.
"Yi Fanxi, what's wrong?" she asked tentatively.
Yi Fanxi quickly returned to normal, her expression cold again. She picked up a piece of food and put it in her mouth. "It's nothing, I was just thinking about some things. I hope you didn't find it amusing."
His expression changed so quickly that Yan Zuozuo was caught off guard. She swallowed hard, a sense of unease welling up from the bottom of her heart.
The meal didn't actually take long, but for Yan Zuozuo, it felt like an eternity.
After seeing Yi Fanxi off, she lay down on the sofa and let out a heavy sigh of relief. Suddenly, she remembered Yi Fanxi's reminder and quickly called Chi Ran.
Chi Ran knew about Tong Shili's situation, and after hearing Yan Zuozuo's words, she also felt that the situation was pressing. She thought for a moment and said, "I happen to have time tomorrow, so I'll ask Mom to go on a picnic together and mention this matter while we're at it."
Yan Zuozuo had no objections. Anyway, the child would be staying here for a few more days. She would wait until she had contacted Chi Xuecan. The most urgent thing right now was to get her mother-in-law to keep her distance from Tong Shili.
The dimly lit house was filled with decadent music, swirling smoke, and intermittent moans, creating a depraved atmosphere.
Qin Yun was lying naked next to Gu Yunxi, and the two were engrossed in their lovemaking. Just as they were getting into the swing of things, a rustling sound came from outside the door. Startled, they frantically tried to put on their clothes.
"Who's outside?" Gu Yunxi shouted, casually throwing on a coat and heading outside.
Qin Yun got dressed in the room and quickly tidied her hair, but after waiting for a while and not hearing Gu Yunxi's voice, she had a bad feeling and asked, "Yunxi, who is it?"
There was no sound outside. Her heart pounded, and she mustered her courage to ask again, "Yunxi, are you still outside?" As she asked, she cautiously walked out. When she was almost at the door, she caught a glimpse of a fruit knife on the table. She quickly grabbed it and continued walking out.
"Is anyone there? Yunxi, where are you? Come out, don't scare me." The villa was empty and quiet, without a sound. The night was eerily dark, and the shadows of the trees swayed on the windows, making the atmosphere even more terrifying.
Qin Yun was terrified. She suddenly rushed out of the room, gripped the dagger in her hand, and shouted, "Who's playing tricks on me? Come out here!" She looked around in panic, but couldn't see a single person, not even Gu Yunxi.
Oh no, could something have happened?
Qin Yun was terrified. She couldn't find Gu Yunxi anywhere. Never mind, she had to leave this place first!
She hurriedly left the villa, completely disregarding Gu Yunxi's life or death. Meanwhile, Gu Yunxi was abandoned in the wilderness. When he woke up, he saw several bikini-clad women surrounding him, each one alluring and graceful.
He squinted, feeling a sudden wave of dizziness and lightheadedness. "What's going on?"
He had just stepped out of the bedroom to check what was happening when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of his head and passed out. When he woke up, he found himself quite fortunate to be with a woman. However, he was far from enjoying it.
Looking around, he saw a dark, desolate forest, eerily barren. He trembled and backed away, warily eyeing the women before him. "Who are you? What do you want? Do you know who I am? I am the future heir of the Huizhu Corporation, the future president of Huari Financial Holdings! If you have any schemes or tricks up your sleeves, I won't let you get away with it!"
The women exchanged glances and smiled seductively. "Gu Yunxi, is that you? You're the one we've been looking for. Don't be afraid, we're counting on you for our future. Let us take good care of you tonight."
The woman spoke in a sweet, seductive voice. Gu Yunxi, far from feeling like she'd won the lottery, felt a sinking feeling in her heart. Oh no, these women were after her.
Seeing the expressions on their faces, he knew something terrible was going to happen, and he suddenly became frightened. "Wait, wait, who hired you? How much did they pay you? I, Gu Yunxi, have plenty of money. Name your price, and I'll give you double!"
The women laughed even harder and slowly approached him. Gu Yunxi shouted, "No, no, no, three times... five times, ten times, ten times is fine, right? What do you want to do... let me go!"
Besides several women, there were also three bodyguards who directly restrained Gu Yunxi. Undeniably, everyone likes money, and the amount Gu Yunxi offered was very tempting, but some money isn't something you can just take whenever you want.
Two bodyguards held Gu Yunxi down, while another took out a syringe, roughly grabbed Gu Yunxi's arm, and quickly injected the liquid inside.
"What did you inject me with? Let me go! Stop!" Gu Yunxi exclaimed in shock. "I am the future successor of the Huizhu Society. How dare you lay a hand on me? You don't want to live anymore!"
However, the more Gu Yunxi struggled, the faster the drug took effect. Soon, he felt lightheaded and began to hallucinate.
