TSFLIP Chapter 1117

There is no Chapter 1116. This chapter continues from 1115

The next day was a cool, overcast one.

She had traded the use of her body for a single day at the beach. The sea breeze stirred the waves, carrying more seashells onto the shore.

Qi Wei placed a white seashell into Feng Guang’s hand and kissed the side of her face.

“The books say girls like picking these things up and playing with them.”

When it came to Feng Guang, he had always approached things with the attitude of an eager student. In the past, he had never been interested in books about how to make girls happy, but now he studied them seriously.

For example, giving clothes, delicious food, and cute little trinkets—those were all things that supposedly pleased women. More importantly, there were even guides about what positions in bed could bring a woman the greatest pleasure.

Qi Wei was still learning all of it.

And putting it into practice.

Feng Guang quietly stared at the seashell in her hand. There was no trace of joy in her eyes. Although the chain had already been removed from her ankle and she was finally allowed to leave the house, it still felt as though an invisible chain remained locked around her leg. Sometimes she could almost hear the faint clinking of metal.

It felt like a hallucination.

And yet not quite one.

“Well, if it isn’t Miss Xia and the handsome doctor.”

Just hearing that teasing tone was enough to know it was Yang Hui.

Feng Guang looked up. Sure enough, it was Yang Hui, and as always, Liu Xun was by her side.

When Yang Hui got closer and saw Feng Guang’s face, she paused.

“Little girl, what’s with that sickly complexion of yours?”

As she spoke, Yang Hui shifted her gaze toward Qi Wei.

“I was sick for a while,” Feng Guang answered. “I only just recovered.”

After saying that, she noticed the bruises on Liu Xun’s face and blinked curiously.

“So you were sick, huh? Spoiled little girls really are delicate.” Yang Hui looked back at Qi Wei. “Doctor Qi, about what we discussed last time—I’d like to keep talking.”

“Of course.” Qi Wei nodded gracefully before turning back to pat Feng Guang lightly on the head. “Stay here and behave.”

Feng Guang gave a quiet “Mm,” and only then did Qi Wei walk away with Yang Hui.

Slowly, Feng Guang tightened her grip around the seashell. She stared out at the shoreline and the stretch of blue seawater beyond it, and even the faint, forced smile in her eyes disappeared.

Liu Xun noticed something was wrong and asked, “Miss Xia, what’s the matter?”

“Nothing.” Feng Guang lifted her head and looked at him. “What happened to your injuries?”

“Well…” Instead of answering immediately, Liu Xun asked, “Aren’t you nervous seeing Doctor Qi alone with another woman?”

“If you aren’t nervous, then I have even less reason to be.” She glanced at the bruises on his face. “Yang Hui did that to you, didn’t she?”

Her blunt question caught Liu Xun off guard. He had wanted to lie and say no, but looking into Feng Guang’s clear eyes, he simply couldn’t force the lie out.

Awkwardly, he nodded. “Yeah.”

“Tell me then—what’s wrong with Yang Hui?” Anyone could tell Liu Xun liked her, yet he showed no concern about Yang Hui being alone with Qi Wei. That meant she genuinely had some kind of issue to discuss. In their eyes, Qi Wei was a highly professional doctor and a psychiatrist at that. Feng Guang thought for a moment before asking directly, “Does Yang Hui have bipolar disorder too, like her younger brother?”

“She does… but her symptoms are much milder than his.”

Feng Guang looked at the injuries on his face, finding it difficult to believe. After a moment, she suddenly asked:

“You know she’s mentally ill, and you still like her? Aren’t you afraid that one day she might suddenly stab you with a knife?”

“Well… it’s not like I’ve never worried about it. Everyone’s afraid of dying.” Liu Xun smiled faintly. “But somehow, when I realized the person with that illness was her and not someone else, I found the courage to keep going with her.”

He looked toward the woman standing in the distance, his eyes full of tenderness.

“Compared to being hurt by her when she loses control… I’m more afraid of the pain of leaving her.”
