Chapter 276 - I Must Let You Stand Up Again (2/2)
Peng Qianli almost said dirty words in angry. He kicked away the chair behind him and turned to leave.
“Old Peng…”
When Peng Qianli came to the door, Zhou Yi suddenly called him. “I’m really sorry for your second son. But I don’t think it’s necessary for you to seek help from others. You absolutely have no alternative in this matter. By the way, I would like to persuade you not to do outrageous things. At least you still have a great eldest son, and Peng’s Family can definitely continue to thrive. Don’t make mistakes.”
“Thank you for your advice.” Peng Qianli said in an extremely hard voice. And then he pushed the door and walked out.
Alas!
Zhou Yi sighed heavily and then dialed a number via an internal call.
When the phone went through, he only said one sentence. “Pay attention to Liu Feng and inform me the first time if he is in danger.”
…
The next morning, Liu Feng left the hotel early and took a taxi to Fragrant Mountain of the capital.
There was an inconspicuous mansion in the vicinity of Fragrant Mountain. It was inconspicuous because the mansions made of grey bricks and black tiles could regularly be seen in this place. But in fact, this mansion was really large with at least three yards inside and more than twenty houses.
Actually, the owner of such a mansion which was close to Fragrant Mountain couldn’t be regarded as a rich and powerful family. However, the family that lived here was indeed a rich and powerful one. It was Duanmu’s Family that was once illustrious in the capital.
“Duanmu Hongliu, do you really become a good-for-nothing? Because of your disability, all families in the capital think that there is no male in the third generation of Duanmu’s Family. Can you swallow the insult?” Liu Feng stood outside the courtyard of Duanmu’s Family, sighing gently. And then he lightly leaped over the high wall like a civet cat.
Though Duanmu’s Family was kind of decadent among all the rich and powerful families in the capital, it was still a rich and powerful family in Celestial Empire. In fact, this mansion was absolutely intelligent. It was equipped with surveillance cameras that almost had a full field of view. However, the monitoring system just failed to record how Liu Feng entered the mansion. Even if Liu Feng shuttled through the courtyards, he was not detected by the monitoring system.
After searching for a while, Liu Feng stopped at the door of a room in the third courtyard.
Squeak!
Liu Feng pushed in and muttered with a frown. “It should be here because there is a faint smell of medicine. It seems that people in Duanmu’s Family have not given up treating Hongliu.”
“Who is there?”
Just then a hoarse voice came from the inner bedroom in the room. “I don’t want to take medicine. And I don’t want to have lunch. Get out of here.”
After hearing his voice, Liu Feng raised his eyebrows. A disappointed look immediately emerged on his face. “Hongliu, it is not typical of you to abandon the treatment, is it? Will you give in to your fate so easily?”
Liu Feng walked to the door of the bedroom while speaking.
In the bedroom, a young man with a sallow complexion lay on the bed. His eyes were fixed on the ceiling. He just uttered two words plainly without looking at Liu Feng at all. “Go out!”
“Hongliu, do you really not want to see me?” Liu Feng went into the bedroom and sat in a chair by the bed.
“You…” Duanmu Hongliu seemed to be very angry, and he suddenly turned to look at Liu Feng. Then a surprise look immediately registered on his face.
Liu Feng raised his hand and put it on the vital meridian of Duanmu Hongliu’s wrist. “It’s me. I am back. Hongliu, I am sorry. It was two days ago that I finally knew you had suffered a lot. Otherwise, I should have come to see you earlier.”
“You, are you really number three? Are you Liu Feng?” Duanmu Hongliu’s expression kept shifting like the clouds, and his eyes began to grow moist.
“It’s me. Can you tell me how you got hurt on your legs?” Liu Feng asked.
“It is because of Lu Yan. He’s a jerk.”
At this time, Duanmu Hongliu burst into tears, but he didn’t continue to answer Liu Feng’s question.
“If you don’t want to say, I won’t ask you forcedly now.”
Liu Feng took out a pack of needles and spread it at the edge of the bed. He raised his hand and pulled out a silver needle. “When I make you stand up again, we can have a chat.”
“What do you mean? Can I stand up again?” Duanmu Hongliu suddenly got excited. When he looked at Liu Feng, his eyes which had been dull all the time finally coruscated a ray of brilliance.
“Yes, you can.” Liu Feng nodded and said, “Trust me, I must let you stand up again!”
