Chapter 58: Shocking Changes 01Additional Update (1+2)

The light in the bedroom was slightly yellowish, and it felt ambiguous when the atmosphere was thick, but it became somewhat dark when the atmosphere settled down.

"Shi... Professor Shi?" Pei Hengzhi repeated these three words in a whisper.

Fu Dongni noticed that he didn't look right and asked softly, "What's wrong? Do you have a grudge against him?"

Not knowing what he was thinking, Pei Hengzhi's lips turned slightly pale. "It's not exactly a grudge, but I'm a little scared of him."

Fu Dongni frowned. "Can you tell me what happened?"

"There's nothing inconvenient about it."

Pei Hengzhi knew that she must be asking about something important, so he rubbed his eyes, sat up, and looked at Fu Dongni. "When I was a child, I had a serious illness for a period of time. My physical functions declined rapidly, and major hospitals were powerless and unable to find the cause. Professor Shi is a good friend of my parents, and he came to see us at that time, saying that he could save me. So my parents sent me to stay with Professor Shi, making it convenient for him to study the cause of my illness."

Fu Dongni's tone immediately turned cold. "What did he do to you during that time?"

"It's not..." Pei Hengzhi knew that Fu Dongni might have misunderstood, and he quickly waved his hand, feeling helpless and a little amused. "He didn't do anything to me, he really saved me."

Fu Dongni frowned. "Then why are you so scared of him?"

As soon as this question came out, Pei Hengzhi's shoulders shrank slightly, like a startled bird. "At that time, I had to take injections every day and take medicine. It was painful and bitter."

In his memory, he lay on the bed drowsily for two months.

He didn't know how he got through it.

The only impression he had was the unbearable pain throughout his body and the bitterness that filled his mouth when the medicine spread on his tongue.

The day he regained consciousness was a morning. Shi Minghuan was wearing a research uniform, with white gloves on his hands, and he opened the curtains gently. He said to Pei Hengzhi with a gentle tone, "Hengzhi, you have completely recovered."

He was clearly standing in the sunlight, but as soon as Pei Hengzhi saw that face, he remembered the pain that was imprinted in his bones.

The instinct of his body conveyed his fear of Shi Minghuan.

Just like a person who has experienced illness panics reflexively when they smell the odor of disinfectant in a hospital.

Pei Hengzhi closed his eyes slightly and recalled all the information he could provide to Fu Dongni, because she wanted to know, so for him, recalling those sealed painful memories was not a big deal.

As he spoke, his fair complexion, elegant eyebrows and eyes, and golden pupils occasionally revealed a hint of blush.

Fu Dongni stared at him intently, expressionless. "Did your parents come to see you during the treatment?"

Pei Hengzhi smiled slightly and lowered his eyes.

The answer was self-evident.

"After saying goodbye to Professor Shi, I flew home by public aircraft." Pei Hengzhi spoke as if he was talking about something unimportant.

But in Fu Dongni's ears, it made her throat dry...

Pei Heng realized that Fu Dongni might have misunderstood, and quickly waved his hand, feeling helpless and amused: "He didn't do anything to me. He did save me."
