"I'll take good care of her for you, you get some rest," the wolf demon said, patting its chest sincerely.
Hu Yuan smiled faintly and closed his eyes.
A wicked grin spread across the wolf demon's lips. It then glanced at the back of Hu Yuan's mother before closing its eyes.
Mu Anxiao moved away from Hu Yuan's hospital room and stopped in a blind spot for the surveillance cameras. She looked at the big-headed, fat demon and the small demon beside her and said, "Don't worry, I'll act later."
"You're not angry that he said that to you?" the big-headed, fat demon asked.
Mu Anxiao sighed. "I am an old, dying being. What he said is not wrong."
"So, that means your vitality isn't damaged?" the small demon asked with concern.
Mu Anxiao smiled. "No, that spiritual energy didn't belong to me in the first place. If it flows away, it flows away. It doesn't matter anyway."
"Did it happen yesterday when you were treating Feng Qishi?" the small demon guessed.
Mu Anxiao patted the small demon's shoulder. "You don't need to ask about this. This is my business. The urgent matter now is yours. Besides, you can't manage my affairs."
"Perhaps we can help you," the small demon said.
"It's fine," Mu Anxiao shook her head.
"If you need anything, you must tell us. Even if we can't help, we'll rack our brains to think of something for you," the big-headed, fat demon said sincerely.
"Thanks, I..."
Mu Anxiao's words were cut short as the soul child suddenly emerged from the wall. Seeing this, the small demon and the big-headed, fat demon quickly left.
"You're here! I've been looking for you," the soul child said, not having seen the big-headed, fat demon and the small demon.
"Is something wrong?" Mu Anxiao asked, looking down.
"Yesterday, I saw Feng Qishi's soul leave. To prevent him from making the same mistake again, I stayed by his side," the soul child said, a smile on its face.
Mu Anxiao looked at the soul child's inexplicable smile towards her and crouched down to ask, "What do you mean by that?"
"What I mean is, you..." The soul child inexplicably giggled at Mu Anxiao twice. "You'll know when you go see for yourself."
"So mysterious," Mu Anxiao said, standing up and walking towards Feng Qishi's floor.
The soul child watched Mu Anxiao's retreating back, smiled, crouched down, and disappeared.
In an instant, Mu Anxiao arrived outside Feng Qishi's hospital room. Just as she was about to enter, she saw Feng Mu and Feng Sen not far away and frowned.
Feng Mu and Feng Sen did not see Mu Anxiao. Feng Sen asked, "Mom, is Feng Qishi your biological son?"
"Yes, he's your biological brother. I've known for a long time," Feng Mu admitted.
"Then why did you treat him like that?" Feng Sen asked.
Feng Mu sighed. "It was a karmic debt. He arrived at the wrong time, which made me have no good feelings towards him."
"But he's your son, your biological son at that. He's in such a state now, can't you be nicer to him?"
"I don't know why," Feng Mu lowered her head, looking troubled. "I just can't stand him, especially when he tried to take his own life, I couldn't stand him even more."
"Mom, this is too childish of you," Feng Sen said helplessly.
"I know. I was thinking of talking to him nicely and caring for him yesterday, but you saw how your father treated me. It makes me angry just thinking about it. Anyway," Feng Mu said, "I have you two, and that's enough. Whether he's here or not makes no difference to me."
"Mom... this is really not good," Feng Sen said.
"Stop talking about it. It's better that he's my biological son; that way, I won't feel guilty," Feng Mu said heartlessly.
Mu Anxiao turned away, worried about being discovered.
"Mom, what kind of thinking is this?" Feng Sen swallowed.
"Alright, don't mention him to me again. I'm hungry," Feng Mu grabbed Feng Sen's arm.
Feng Sen looked at Feng Mu and nodded. "Okay, let's go eat."
"Mmm," Feng Mu nodded, turned, and left with Feng Sen.
Mu Anxiao slanted her eyes and turned to watch Feng Mu and Feng Sen leave. She thought, *It's okay, Feng Qishi's father will...*
Unexpectedly, before she could finish her thought, Feng Ba's voice came from inside.
"Feng Qishi! Look at you, always upsetting your mother. Your mother suffered so much giving birth to you. You should learn to tolerate her, no matter how bad she is. How heartbroken she was when you jumped off the building! And now you're still speaking about her like this. You're too much, too unthinking. You need to learn to be grateful, do you understand!"
Mu Anxiao clenched her fists as she listened to Feng Ba's words.
The soul child appeared behind Mu Anxiao and said, "His father was nice to him this morning. After his mother spoke the truth, he chased after her. Then he came back like a completely different person, lecturing Feng Qishi. I really don't know how Feng Qishi grew up."
Mu Anxiao turned and looked down at the soul child behind her. Thinking of Feng Qishi's firm decision to leave, her nose tingled, and she said, "I promised him."
"You promised him what?" the soul child exclaimed.
Mu Anxiao glanced at the soul child again and walked into the hospital room without another word.
The soul child frowned and followed her in.
In the hospital room, Feng Feng and Feng Yan stood by Feng Qishi's bed. Feng Ba stood at the foot of the bed, angrily pointing at Feng Qishi, who refused to open his eyes, lecturing him about gratitude.
Mu Anxiao stopped and looked at Feng Ba's profile, saying, "If your son died, would you still say these words?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Ba turned to look at Mu Anxiao and asked ungratefully, "What business is it of yours here?"
Mu Anxiao calmly looked at Feng Ba, who was completely different from the day before, and sighed. "It's none of my business, but he," she glanced at Feng Qishi, who had opened his eyes, "is just a patient, a patient who just survived a fall from the building. I don't agree with you speaking to him like this."
"He is my son," Feng Ba said, glaring at Mu Anxiao.
Mu Anxiao said calmly, "Yes, he is your son, but he is also a person, a person with dignity. You are speaking about him here, and people outside can hear. You are ruining his reputation."
"He disrespected his mother, so he deserves to be taught a lesson. What do you know?" Feng Ba said, pointing at Mu Anxiao.
Mu Anxiao let out a breath and looked at Feng Yan and Feng Feng. "One of you is his sister, and the other is his brother. Don't you have anything to say?"
"Third Brother was indeed disrespectful to Mother just now," Feng Feng said softly.
"How was he disrespectful?" Mu Anxiao asked.
Feng Feng cautiously glanced at Feng Yan beside him and lowered his head.
"A child must have basic respect for their mother. He..." Feng Yan looked at Feng Qishi. "He said many hurtful things to Mother."
