Chapter 774 Humph, really annoying
Coming out of the cemetery, the road is lined with green trees on both sides. The dense branches and leaves are intertwined together, forming a natural green dome, isolating the noise from the outside world and creating silence all around.
The atmosphere in the car was a little dull. Yu Fei held it in for a long time, but finally couldn't help but secretly glance at An Yu. He coughed lightly, breaking the silence, and asked cautiously:
"Sister An Yu, I wasn't in such a bad mood when I saw you come back before, but this time when you came back from Victoria Resort,
I...why do I feel like you're hiding something from me? Or is it that Robert's kidnapping of you has left you with an indelible psychological trauma?"
An Yu gently smoothed her hair that was messed up by the wind, then held her forehead with her hand, her eyes looking a little tired.
She cast her gaze into the distance, letting the wind outside the window blow her hair wildly, and her thoughts seemed to be carried to a distant place by the wind.
After thinking for a moment, she slowly said, "Xiao Fei, you know I have claustrophobia, right?"
Yu Fei nodded quickly, a look of reminiscence on his face, and said, "Of course I know this!
Sister An Yu, speaking of claustrophobia, it’s because I was too naughty when I was a child, which caused you a psychological trauma!
I remember one time, Dad took us back to our hometown to visit the graves. I saw a hare darting out from the bushes, and I thought it was so interesting that I pulled you along and chased it along the hillside.
As a result, I accidentally tripped over a rock and fell forward. You were quick to reach out and grab my arm in time.
But you were just a child at that time, with limited strength, and you couldn't hold me, so we both fell into an abandoned cave.
The cave was deep and dark, and all kinds of insects and centipedes kept crawling on our bodies.
We were so scared that we cried loudly. No matter how much we cried and shouted, our father didn't come to save us. We stayed in there for three whole days.
Three days later, my father finally led the villagers in a carpet search and found us in the cave, but by then we had both fainted from hunger.
After staying in the hospital for half a month, we were finally discharged. Do you remember when Dad drove us home?
When the car was parked in the underground parking lot, the lights in that area were broken and the entire parking lot was dark.
You suddenly started having trouble breathing in the car, your face turned pale, and you kept thrashing around, crying and yelling in panic, "There are so many bugs and centipedes! Go away, all of you, go away!"
Dad thought that your injury in the hospital had not healed yet, so he was very worried and rushed to the hospital to question the doctor.
After a detailed examination and analysis of your symptoms, the doctor diagnosed you with cabin fever."
An Yu listened to Yu Fei's story with a faint smile on her face. She said with emotion, "I didn't expect that you were so young at that time, but you still remember this incident so clearly."
Yu Fei looked puzzled and asked, "What's wrong, sister? Why did you suddenly think of cabin fever?"
An Yu licked her dry lips, took a deep breath, and began to speak:
"After Teng Zijing and I were kidnapped by Robert, we were locked up in an extremely cramped dark room.
It was a stormy night, with lightning, thunder, howling winds, and raindrops as big as beans hitting the windows violently.
The only lamp in the room suddenly went out with a "pop" after a violent shaking.
In an instant, the whole room was plunged into pitch-black darkness, and at that moment, my claustrophobia suddenly took over.
I felt as if an invisible hand was tightly strangling my throat. Breathing became increasingly difficult, and my heart was beating wildly in my chest, as if it was about to burst through my chest.
Wherever I looked, there were dense swarms of insects and centipedes. I was so scared that I was shaking all over and didn't know what to do.
What I didn’t expect at that time was that Teng Zijing actually knew that I had claustrophobia.”
Yu Fei's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief as he questioned, "How is that possible? Besides me, only my dad and Uncle An know about this! Did you tell your bestie about it when you were in school?"
An Yi hurriedly shook her head, searching her memory for the past, and said with certainty: "Well, no. How could I tell others about such an embarrassing thing! But..."
Yu Fei looked at An Yi eagerly, his eyes full of anticipation, and asked, "But what?"
An Yu frowned slightly, looking puzzled, and slowly said, "There was one time, when I was about to take a test, I was concentrating on reviewing in the back room of the library.
As a result, the administrator was careless and accidentally locked me in. The secret room was pitch dark and so quiet that the only sound I could hear was my own rapid breathing.
My claustrophobia kicked in all of a sudden, and I was so uncomfortable that I almost passed out. Just as my consciousness was fading, someone approached me.
He first gave me artificial respiration, and then helped me do basic exercises for my limbs, which relieved my symptoms.
Later, after dawn, when the administrator came to work and opened the door, I was taken to the hospital.
On the way to the hospital, I was still in a daze and couldn't see clearly who was holding me.
But when I woke up at night, I saw Qiu Beichen's clothes hanging on the hanger. Qiu Beichen also brought my favorite black chicken, red dates and wolfberry soup to visit me in the hospital.
After hearing this, Yu Fei couldn't help but laugh and said, "So, you thought that person was Qiu Beichen. Since then, you have been taking even more care of him, meticulously, right?"
An Yu nodded gently, a look of determination in her eyes, and said honestly, "I lost my first kiss that night, so I have always believed that the person who saved me was the taciturn Qiu Beichen."
Yu Fei said approvingly, "Qiu Beichen is indeed handsome and outstanding. Although his family background is a bit humble, it's not bad at all.
If it weren't for the Teng Zijing incident, I think your children would be able to help out by now!"
An Yu let out a long sigh, a trace of confusion and bewilderment flashed in her eyes, and she asked doubtfully, "But it's been so long, and Qiu Beichen has never asked about my claustrophobia.
But when Victoria was kidnapped by Robert, Teng Zijing keenly noticed that I was suffering from claustrophobia.
In the darkness, he kept guiding me to take deep breaths, gently telling me that he was there, not to be afraid, and to relax.
Later I asked him how he knew I had claustrophobia, and he actually told me what happened in the secret room of the library.
Xiaofei, do you think I have been wishful thinking and loved the wrong person all these years?
This time when I returned to China, I really wanted to find out who was the person who sent me to the hospital in the secret room of the library.
Yu Fei smiled lightly and humorously, and said cheerfully, "That's easy. Let's go back to school and ask someone who knew about it back then. We'll know the answer. Don't worry about it any more!"
After hearing Yu Fei's words, An Yu felt as if she suddenly saw a ray of light in the darkness, and her thoughts suddenly became clear.
At this moment, her mood became as cheerful as Yu Fei's. She felt Yu Fei suddenly step on the accelerator, and the car sped away on the road like an arrow.
Only a gradually dissipating exhaust gas was left, as if the haze in An Yu's heart had been swept away.
Under Yu Fei's skillful driving skills, An Yu's car drove smoothly and slowly into the designated parking space in the villa yard.
An Yu looked through the car window and saw the shiny car of her father's assistant Qi Haoyu parked nearby.
He couldn't help but frown slightly and muttered softly, "What is that flatterer doing here? Humph, he's really annoying."
When Yu Fei heard An Yu's complaint, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he said softly:
"Sister An Yu, although Assistant Qi looks a bit feminine and speaks in a womanly way, I have to say that he is very flexible in his work and has his own way of handling various matters."
An Yu curled her lips in disdain and said, "Flexible as hell! He only comes up with rotten ideas. I really don't understand what Dad thinks so much about him!"
After saying that, the two of them unbuckled their seat belts, opened the car door and got out. They walked straight towards the villa hall with firm steps, and then went up the stairs.
When they passed by the study, Qi Haoyu's cunning and dark voice came from inside:
"Boss An, you can rest assured. Li Yanshan is currently stationed in Kuncheng, directly supervising the progress of the tenderer's project. He is also personally investigating Jiang Chengyu's fall.
But don't worry, he's just a facade. We've already sent those key individuals out, so the police won't be able to catch them anytime soon.
Doesn't Zidong International think it has a sure win? With the cake in hand, huh, I want them to find it hard to swallow. I want them to know that eating alone has serious consequences.
Then, there were the low humming sounds of laughter from the two, followed by An Jinsong's voice:
"You must clean your hands and feet, and don't let the young lady know. Xiaoyu is always arrogant.
If they knew we were acting this way, they would probably give us a long lecture."
Hearing these words, An Yu's face instantly turned gloomy. She pushed open the study door without hesitation, looking unhappy and scolding in a cold voice:
"Qi Haoyu, please repeat what you just said. With such a thorough plan, you shouldn't exclude me, the vice president, right?
What, are you doing something shameful that you're afraid I'd find out about?"
Qi Haoyu was startled when he heard the sound, and subconsciously looked at An Jinsong. An Jinsong's eyes flickered, and he shook his head slightly, signaling him not to say anything.
Qi Haoyu immediately understood what he meant, pretending to be flustered, with a fake smile on his face, and said in a shrill voice:
"Oh, Miss, I'm so sorry. Look at my brain, I forgot about it just now because I was busy.
The company's research and development department will deliver a new batch of important raw materials today. These raw materials are the key to the new project, so I must sign for them in person.
You see, I'm so anxious that I'm dizzy. I'm so sorry, miss, I'm leaving now. Bye!"
After that, he twisted his body like a funny clown and picked up the briefcase beside him in a sissy way.
With that playful smile still on his face, he hurried towards the study door.
His footsteps were brisk and rhythmic, making a "thump thump thump" sound. He ran downstairs quickly and disappeared at the door of the villa in a short while.
