Awakening the Phoenix Flow System after the breakup, I'm so happy!

the next morning.

Chen Yang was awakened by a buzzing sound from his cell phone.

Liu Yifei was still asleep, with one leg on top of him. The strap of her nightgown had slipped down to her arm, revealing most of her snow-white shoulder.

The two of them stayed up too late last night, and she's sound asleep right now, not even hearing the vibration.

Chen Yang carefully moved her legs apart and reached for his phone on the bedside table.

The screen displayed an unfamiliar number, a local number from Jiangcheng, with a string of neat 8s at the end. Anyone who could get a number like this was either in business or in sales.

He pressed the answer button and lowered his voice.

"Feed".

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.

Then a cool female voice came, with a hint of probing.

"Is this Mr. Chen Yang?"

"it's me."

"I am Qin Xue. You saved my grandfather in the pavilion at Taihu Villa last time."

Her tone was polite but not overly warm, and every word maintained just the right amount of social distance: "I apologize for making this call, but my grandfather's condition is not good."

Chen Yang sat up straight.

Liu Yifei was awakened by his movements. She opened her eyes groggily and mouthed, "Who is he?"

Chen Yang shook his head, patted her head, and gestured for her to continue sleeping.

"Has the poisonous insect in Old Master Qin's body acted up prematurely?"

Qin Xue paused for a moment on the other end of the phone.

How did you know?

"Based on my last assessment, it should have been able to suppress it for half a month," Chen Yang recalled, frowning. "Unless he came into contact with something that could trigger the poisonous insects in the past few days."

From Qin Xue's side came the sound of high heels clicking on the marble floor, followed by the sound of a door closing.

She probably came out of the hospital room to answer the phone.

"I don't know the specifics either. My grandfather started having a fever three days ago, and fell into a coma yesterday afternoon. Experts from the General Hospital of the Military Region consulted all night, and he is still in the ICU. They can't find any cause of his illness."

Qin Xue's voice tightened slightly, "Mr. Chen, I know this request is abrupt, but you said last time that it can be cured, so... I would like to ask you to come to the hospital."

Chen Yang threw off the covers, got out of bed, and walked barefoot to the window on the carpet, asking a question.

Which hospital?

"The VIP ward area on the thirteenth floor of Building No. 1 at the General Hospital of the Military Region."

"Just tell me a time, and I'll come pick you up myself."

"No need to pick me up, I'll just take a taxi."

"no."

"You are my guest, so I must pick you up in person. This is the Qin family's rule. Give me an address, and I'll set off now."

Chen Yang turned his head and glanced at Liu Yifei on the bed.

She was fully awake, leaning against the headboard, her fingers idly playing with the straps of her nightgown.

Seeing Chen Yang looking over, she raised an eyebrow, her expression carrying a hint of anticipation.

"Okay." Chen Yang gave the address of an intersection near the villa on the hillside. "See you in half an hour."

I hung up the phone.

Liu Yifei propped the pillow up behind her back and looked at him with a half-smile.

"The Qin family? Qin Xue's grandfather?" She repeated the names, her tone carrying a hint of amusement. "The one you told me about yesterday, the old man we rescued halfway up Taihu Mountain Villa."

"right."

How did she get your phone number?

"I left my business card with her and told her to contact me if I needed anything. I guess she used the information on the business card to look me up."

Chen Yang bent down and picked up the pants from the ground. "Don't overthink it, we're just going to save people."

Liu Yifei pulled the blanket up to her chin, revealing her two eyes that were curved into crescent moons.

"I didn't think much of it, why are you so nervous?"

"Where am I nervous?"

"When you gave me the address just now, you gave me the address of the intersection outside the hillside villa, not the address of my apartment."

Liu Yifei said slowly, "Are you afraid that Miss Qin will find out you've been spending the night out?"

Chen Yang paused for a moment as he put on his pants.

He turned around, walked to the bedside, placed his hands on either side of Liu Yifei's body, and looked down at her.

"I mentioned the villa because the military hospital is closer to there. It would take an extra 20 minutes of traffic to get to your apartment. The old man is in the ICU, and I can't make people wait an extra 20 minutes."

Liu Yifei felt a little guilty under his gaze and looked away.

"An explanation is just a cover-up."

"Are you going to eat breakfast or not?"

"want."

Liu Yifei immediately changed the subject, stretching out her bare arm and pointing towards the kitchen.

"There's leftover pork belly and tomatoes in the fridge from yesterday. I want to have hot noodle soup."

Chen Yang pinched her cheek and turned to go to the kitchen.

Fifteen minutes later.

Two steaming bowls of braised pork noodles were placed on the table.

Liu Yifei changed into an oversized loungewear T-shirt, casually tied her hair into a low ponytail, and sat at the dining table slurping noodles.

She still ate in a rather unladylike manner, with noodles hanging on her chin that she didn't bother to wipe away.

Chen Yang finished his bowl in a few bites and went to the bathroom to quickly wash up and change clothes.

When they came out, Liu Yifei was still slowly drinking her soup.

"I'm leaving. Leave the dishes for me to wash when I get back."

Are you coming over tonight?

Liu Yifei put down her soup bowl and asked casually.

Chen Yang paused for a moment as he changed his shoes in the entryway.

"It depends."

"What's going on?"

"If I finish rescuing the person early, I'll come over; if it's too late, I won't disturb your rest."

Liu Yifei finished the last sip of soup, stood up, walked to the entrance, and leaned against the shoe cabinet, watching him tie his shoelaces.

"Then go ahead." Her tone was calm. "Saving lives is the priority; don't keep the old man waiting too long."

Chen Yang stood up, looked at her face, and suddenly leaned over and kissed her on the lips.

"The noodles are delicious. Since you're back early tonight, I'll make you some more noodles."

"What does this have to do with noodles?" Liu Yifei was a little stunned by his surprise attack, and unconsciously touched her lips with her fingers.

Chen Yang opened the door and went out. "I'll text you if you come over tonight."

The apartment door closed behind him.

The corridor was quiet for a few seconds.

Then Liu Yifei's voice came through the door.

"Chen Yang, you're getting better and better at this! Where do you get all this filthy trash from?"

Chen Yang burst out laughing in the elevator.

As he walked out of the apartment building, he suddenly sensed a dangerous aura.

"An unidentified force has been detected monitoring the area."

Chen Yang's smile remained unchanged, and he didn't stop walking. He glanced discreetly at a black minivan parked on the opposite side of the road.

The car window tint is applied very thickly, making it impossible to see inside from the outside.

However, after Chen Yang's senses were enhanced multiple times, he could vaguely detect two pairs of eyes staring at him through the car window.

He looked away and walked towards the shared bicycle station as if nothing had happened.

I scanned a bright green electric scooter and slowly rode it out of the community gate.

In the rearview mirror, the black minivan indeed started up and slowly followed, maintaining a distance of two car lengths.

A slight smile appeared on Chen Yang's lips.

"Here we go again, Kuroba's men."
