CHAPTER 186: CHAPTER 186: THE SUN FAMILY COMPROMISES

Not long after Sun Yazhu left.

Feng Yu also followed Feng Lei to the hospital ward door in an orderly manner.

Feng Lei looked at the doorway but didn’t enter, "They’re resting."

Feng Yu also peeked inside from the doorway, somewhat disappointed he couldn’t get acquainted with Ji Ning.

"Brother, that girl..."

Feng Lei glanced at him, "Shut up! You’re not suitable!"

Feng Yu chuckled awkwardly, "Brother, I didn’t mean that... I just think she’s amazing and would like to make a friend."

But Feng Lei ignored him, gave a couple of instructions to Feng Family’s bodyguards at the door, and prepared to return to the nearby hotel.

On the other side, the Sun Family.

Sun Chengen was helped back to the car, and Ye Zhiqiu looked at his aged-looking old friend with a face seemingly aged ten years, sighed, "Lao Sun, this is partly my fault. If I hadn’t said those words, maybe Li Guo wouldn’t have turned out like this. Now I’ll contact my brother to see if the research institute has any solutions."

Sun Chengen closed his eyes silently, while Ye Zhiqiu felt even more guilty and really called his brother, but couldn’t reach anyone on the other side.

"Zhiqiu, don’t bother. If you can’t do anything, those people at the research institute probably won’t have a way either. She’s determined to torment Lao San..."

Ye Zhiqiu put down his phone, looking sympathetic, "What do you plan to do then? Really follow what that girl wanted?"

"What else can I do but agree? You’ve seen it; that girl is formidable, immovable by threats or charm. Not agreeing with her would not only torment Lao San but also spell bigger troubles for the Sun Family later. Lao San was really muddled..."

Ye Zhiqiu sighed similarly, "Li Guo really went too far this time! Whatever the hatred was, why treat a girl like that? Lao Sun, you really should talk to them about it in the future."

Sun Chengen made a sound of acknowledgment, feeling uncomfortable inside.

***

The next morning.

Sun Chengen’s confidant and Sun Yazhu waited with generous gifts outside the inpatient building.

At this time, there were no Feng Family’s Secret Guards at the inpatient building entrance, but they waited there properly nonetheless.

Ji Ning, while eating soup dumplings, said to Ye Tong: "The Sun Family is downstairs."

Ye Tong, while drinking millet porridge with a straw, froze instinctively in fear, lowered her head, and even stopped drinking.

After finishing her tray of soup dumplings, Ji Ning wiped her hands and said: "You needn’t fear them, I’ve checked. The highest rank superpower user in the Sun Family is Fourteenth Rank. Work hard and aim to reach that level yourself within ten years, then challenge the Sun Family."

"Pfft..."

"Cough cough cough..."

The Feng Family brothers, who always considered themselves invisible, the errand boys, choked on their porridge.

Ji Ning scanned the two men sitting at the door like door gods and then looked at Ye Tong: "First upgrade your physique to S-Class."

Although Ye Tong’s eyes were swollen to the point of almost not opening, her gaze was surprisingly bright.

She mumbled indistinctly: "Okay..."

Sister Ning never boasted.

If Sister Ning said she could become a Fourteenth Rank superpower user within ten years, then surely she could achieve it.

And the Feng Family brothers exchanged glances.

The two women inside the room, one really dared to say it, the other really dared to believe it.

Turning a regular person into a Fourteenth Rank superpower user within ten years?

What a joke!

Some ordinary people don’t awaken any superpower their whole lives.

Why are superpower users held in such high regard?

Isn’t it just because rarity leads to value?

Ji Ning finished eating her three trays of soup dumplings, stood up to dispose of the trash.

Feng Yu immediately stood up to greet her, "Sister Ning, let me. Leave these small tasks to me."

"Are you his brother?" Ji Ning looked between the two brothers.

Feng Yu nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I’m his younger brother, 22 years old, unmarried, from Beijing, just graduated from university, currently working with my brother. Sister Ning, if you think I’m okay, I can work for you..."

His fawning appearance made Feng Lei reluctant to acknowledge him as a Feng Family member, pulling Feng Yu’s arm and covering his mouth with a hand.

"Sorry, my brother loves daydreaming."

Ji Ning chuckled, "No problem."

"The Sun Family..."

"Let Sun Yazhu come up."

Feng Yu quickly broke free from his brother’s grip and volunteered: "I’ll go call her."

Feng Shisan followed closely behind, worried Feng Yu might cause trouble.

The Sun Family wouldn’t dare touch Ji Ning, but they had fewer scruples against the Feng Family.

After last night, cooperation between the two families was impossible; a non-hostile future would already reflect the Sun Family’s generosity.

Feng Yu strode to the building entrance, looked at the Sun Family members spiritedly, "Which one is Miss Sun? Sister Ning wants her to come up."

Though he already knew who Sun Yazhu was, he said it on purpose.

After all, the Sun Family was heartless for treating their lifesaver so cruelly.

Sun Chengen’s confidant, Sun Cheng, was displeased internally.

The Feng Family really believed that the Sun Family feared them?

"Uncle Cheng, I’ll go up first."

Sun Yazhu’s face was neither sad nor happy, unreadable emotions, just briefly instructed Sun Cheng.

"Miss, the Family Head’s intention..."

"I know. You should head back first."

Sun Yazhu wore a beige long coat today with a white turtleneck underneath, paired with black straight pants and white sneakers.

Her attire was different from the usual workplace style.

With a gray computer bag in hand, she followed the Feng Family people into the inpatient building.

Ye Tong’s VIP ward was on the 8th floor, with Feng Family bodyguards practically acting as the security of the ward area, guarding the door vigilantly.

Sun Yazhu entered the ward area with unchanged expression and walked to Ye Tong’s ward.

Upon hearing the vague voice of Ye Tong from inside, her body paused momentarily.

She calmed her emotions and followed Feng Yu inside.

Ye Tong was already awake, sitting up slightly, eating apple puree fed by Feng Lei.

While Ji Ning stood by the window, looking out.

Ye Tong seemed unwilling to let Feng Lei feed her fruits, wanting to hold and bite them herself, but Feng Lei stated plainly: "No, your jaw is still recovering, the doctor advised against biting hard things."

"I... can eat... by myself... Sister Yazhu..."

This form of address almost cracked Sun Yazhu, she tilted her head and breathed in, smiling, "Xiao Tong, feeling better?"

"Mm, much better." Ye Tong seemed to want to smile at her but pulled the wound, hurting herself and let out a "tch."

Feng Lei, somewhat anxious, put down the apple and spoon, "Your wound hasn’t healed yet, take it easy."

"Xiao Tong, where does it hurt? I’ll call a nurse..."

Feng Yu rolled his eyes, "No need for your fake compassion. Her condition is thanks to your Sun Family."

Sun Yazhu acted as if she hadn’t heard, still went outside to call the nurse.

The nurses from the 8th floor’s station primarily served Ye Tong; when Sun Yazhu returned, she brought a group of nurses and doctors with her.

A group checked Ye Tong again thoroughly, finding no anomalies before leaving.

Sun Yazhu sighed with relief, moved to Ye Tong’s bedside, and took out some documents from her computer bag.

"Xiao Tong, I know speaking and doing anything now cannot make up for the harm my uncle caused you. I apologize on his behalf first."

Sun Yazhu bowed earnestly to Ye Tong.

"...Not your... fault... he... received punishment..."

Ye Tong wasn’t sure about Sun Liguo’s current state, but knowing Ji Ning, Ji Ning wouldn’t easily let him go.

Ji Ning might speak harshly but always soft-hearted toward them, never allowing outsiders to bully them.

Yet Sun Yazhu shook her head, placed the document on Ye Tong’s bed, and said with a face full of guilt: "Xiao Tong, this is compensation and reparation from the Sun Family."
