CHAPTER 350: CHAPTER 351: WHAT IS HE SUSPECTING?

"On the banyan tree by the pond, cicadas are loudly heralding the summer~"

The childish singing was sweet, albeit intermittent.

Shi Lingyan cast a sideways glance and saw a little cutie dressed in pink sitting beside him, fiddling with a hexagonal Rubik’s Cube.

Then, as if noticing Shi Lingyan, those big round eyes blinked, followed by a tilt of the head: "Brainy, are you hungry?"

Tang Jingming was dozing off, but upon hearing this, he abruptly lifted his head.

"Ah, shit, he’s awake, he’s awake, doctor! He’s awake!"

The raucous sound of Tang Jingming echoed, buzzing in his ears.

Shi Lingyan felt weak all over, as if his reactions were also significantly dulled.

By the time he came to his senses, he was already surrounded by several doctors in white coats.

Shi Lingyan was somewhat impatient.

The feeling of weakness and lethargy in his body made him quite irritable.

"He’s awake, there seem to be no issues for now, but it’s normal to feel weak after being in a coma for three days..."

Three days?

Shi Lingyan was silent.

No wonder he felt completely powerless; he had been lying down for three days?

After the doctors left, Shi Mei scurried to his bedside, leaned over Shi Lingyan, and asked: "Brainy, does your chest hurt?"

Shi Lingyan: "..."

Tang Jingming stepped forward, picked up Shi Mei, and tossed her aside, "Don’t disturb him, he’s just woken up. Go call grandma and grandpa."

Shi Mei pouted, somewhat dissatisfied, and walked away with a stomp.

Tang Jingming crossed his arms and looked at Shi Lingyan, sighing, "I mean, brother-in-law, do you have some kind of bad luck aura? Why do you get injured so often? If Yun Du hadn’t arrived in time this time, you might have been in real trouble!"

Shi Lingyan was quiet for a while before he finally spoke, "How did Yun Du know?"

The moment he spoke, his throat felt as if it was being scraped by sand, extremely hoarse.

It was then that Tang Jingming remembered to pour him a glass of water, helped him sit up, and said, "Someone sent Yun Du a photo using your phone, a picture of you lying on the ground covered in blood. Damn, it scared me to death. Yun Du was the one who contacted me to open the door. How do you feel, any discomfort?"

Shi Lingyan’s brain was still not entirely clear, fixating on the first thing Tang Jingming had said: Someone sent Yun Du a photo using your phone.

Who that person was, he knew perfectly well without having to ask.

Somehow, Shi Lingyan felt a strange sense of relief.

She spoke harshly, but in the end, she couldn’t bear to see him dead, could she?

Tang Jingming noticed the peculiar relief in his eyes and said with some curiosity, "Who on earth have you offended? After Yun Du took you to the hospital, he went back to check the scene and found no signs of struggle."

Leaning in with a bit of gossip, Tang Jingming whispered, "However, we found an unopened condom on the couch. Don’t tell me you brought a woman home to... you know, she refused to... you know, and then she just gave you the knife?"

Shi Lingyan: "... Get out."

Tang Jingming quickly shut his mouth.

After drinking the water, Shi Lingyan lay back down, closed his eyes to rest for a moment, and then asked, "Where’s Yun Du?"

"At the company, I guess. I just texted him on WeChat; he should be here soon."

Shi Lingyan closed his eyes again, then after another moment of silence, he asked, "What about Shi Mei?"

"I’m here!" Shi Mei bounced in from the doorway, "Your little cutie suddenly appears!"

Shi Lingyan watched her radiant smile and suddenly remembered the eerie dream.

He rarely had dreams, and what struck him was that in the dream, Shi Mei’s voice was identical to Tang Wu’s.

"Let’s play a game," Shi Lingyan said, "I’ll say a sentence, and you repeat it."

Shi Mei felt a slight heaviness in her chest.

A game?

Was he suspecting something?
