Chapter 57: A Shocking Dream
Watching Qi Yue leave without a hint of reluctance, Shen Kuozhi, lying on the sickbed, chuckled and said, “You heartless brat~”
Not long after Qi Yue left, a group of medical experts led by Qi Yunhan entered Shen Kuozhi’s ward.
“I never thought you were such a sentimental guy. He’s gone, stop pretending. You must be hurting all over now.”
Upon entering, Qi Yunhan saw Shen Kuozhi wanting to smile but only managing a slight twitch of his mouth due to discomfort. This smile seemed even more eerie.
“You wouldn’t understand the feeling of love when you’re single.”
Although Shen Kuozhi’s voice was weak, his words carried no less power.
“Then let’s just make you hurt to death.”
Qi Yunhan gave him a disdainful look and began to formally examine Shen Kuozhi’s current condition.
Previously, the attending physician and Qi Yue had mentioned that Shen Kuozhi’s illness was nothing serious, just to keep Qi Yue from knowing the severity of his condition.
In reality, Shen Kuozhi’s body didn’t appear as healthy as it seemed, which was also why he had asked Qi Yunhan to return to the country.
Qi Yunhan was extremely famous in the world of medicine, especially among the younger generation, having made unprecedented advancements in genetic research before the age of thirty.
Although he was relatively young in the medical field, he was the leader of this medical team, rightfully so.
After Qi Yunhan’s team conducted a comprehensive examination of Shen Kuozhi, they tirelessly analyzed his condition.
Shen Kuozhi’s genetic hereditary disease wasn’t the first of its kind globally, but domestically, such cases were indeed rare and few.
However, Qi Yunhan’s team specialized in researching these types of diseases. Even if the examples were scarce, for his closest brother since childhood, he would spare no effort to research and find a treatment.
Shen Kuozhi’s situation was completely unknown to Qi Yue. After leaving the hospital, he went back to change his clothes and charged his phone.
His phone had shut down due to low battery last night and he hadn’t charged it because he was at the hospital.
As he turned it on, messages immediately popped up.
Yang Ling had called him several times, probably because he hadn’t gone to the company today.
While calling Yang Ling back, Qi Yue checked the messages in his work email.
“Hey, Ling Ge, I missed your calls today. Is there something going on at the company?”
“When the company had its meeting this morning and I noticed you hadn’t arrived yet, I called you. The meeting is over now. I’ll organize the contents and send them to you later.”
“Alright, I’ll come to the company this afternoon.”
“Okay.”
After dealing with emails, Qi Yue took a shower and had lunch before realizing that he hadn’t called Lin Xiao all night.
Combined with the secret he accidentally overheard yesterday, could something have happened between Lin Xiao and Yue Tingyun last night?
With these thoughts in mind, Qi Yue checked his phone messages again to confirm that Lin Xiao hadn’t sent him any messages during this time.
This didn’t seem right. If Xiao Xiao didn’t come back last night, he should have informed him. This silence and absence overnight, could Yue Tingyun have forced him?
Regardless of the situation, just to be safe, Qi Yue sent Lin Xiao a message.
[Qi Yue: Xiao Xiao, did you come back last night?]
After sending the message, Qi Yue tidied up and then took a taxi to the company.
Besides being concerned about Lin Xiao’s safety, Qi Yue actually had something else to ask him.
He hadn’t forgotten the man Shen Kuozhi had punched yesterday. He had to rush Shen Kuozhi to the hospital and left as soon as Qi Yunhan took over, so he didn’t get any information about that man.
But Lin Xiao was more resourceful with information. He should know.
However, Qi Yue wasn’t sure if Lin Xiao and Yue Tingyun had made up and were together now, so he didn’t want to disturb them rashly.
In front of the office building’s elevator, Qi Yue lightly slapped his face.
When the enemy comes, he’ll meet them head-on. When the water comes, he’ll cover the earth. It’s fine, who is he? He’s Qi Yue. He’s not afraid.
After adjusting his mindset, Qi Yue entered the focused and busy state of work.
Meanwhile, the man who Qi Yue couldn’t stop thinking about, Yang Xingyun, was having a blast with his “like-minded” buddies at the bar.
“Hey, let me tell you guys, the party I attended last night was so grand. I dare say it was the most impressive social event I’ve ever attended. Let me show you the photos~”
Yang Xingyun boasted proudly as he scrolled through the pictures in his phone album. All his friends gathered around to watch, marveling at the splendid party displayed on the screen. The light from the screen reflected on everyone’s faces, eliciting several exclamations of admiration.
“Wow! Is this for real?”
“You’re amazing, Xingyun! You’ve already experienced such high-level gatherings. Compared to you, I don’t even know where to play in the mud.”
“With Xingyun’s looks, he’s worthy of such events~”
Amidst the praises and envy, Yang Xingyun’s vanity was greatly satisfied, completely forgetting about the embarrassment of being publicly driven out last night.
“That’s right~ If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll try to bring you guys along~”
“Wow! That’s awesome! Following Xingyun not only means good food but also handsome guys and strong drinks. Just thinking about it makes me drool~”
“Haha, wipe your drool quickly. You’re already drooling at the bar; wait till tonight, I’ll find you a big, strong guy~”
As the group laughed and joked around in their private booth, a tall man approached Yang Xingyun with a drink in hand, walking straight up to him.
“Can I ask you for a dance?”
“No way, such a handsome man is hitting on you. Xingyun, did you hire him as your wingman?”
The friend closest to Yang Xingyun lightly bumped his arm, teasing him.
Yang Xingyun didn’t expect a handsome guy to approach him directly like this. Seeing the envy in his friends’ eyes, he couldn’t help but feel a little fluttered.
“Of course.”
Yang Xingyun stood up and clinked glasses with the man. The man curled his lips slightly and naturally intertwined his arm holding the drink with Yang Xingyun’s arm, gazing intensely at him as he downed the drink.
The man’s fiery and suggestive gaze, coupled with the cheers from his friends, quickly made Yang Xingyun’s face flush red, and his body’s desires surged like a wild beast.
Yang Xingyun followed the man to the dance floor, feeling light-headed and excited.
Once Yang Xingyun left with the man, his remaining friends gathered together to discuss him.
“I’m telling you, why do so many men like Yang Xingyun? How come I can’t find a wealthy hunk like him?”
“You don’t know this? He’s really skilled in bed, that’s why so many rich young masters want to play with him.”
“Don’t say that. If I were a top, I’d want to try his taste too~”
“Stop it, we’re about to start leaking.”
Not long after Yang Xingyun followed the man to the dance floor, they became intimately entangled amidst the ambiguous lights and pounding music.
With the spring breeze of the night, the next morning, when Yang Xingyun woke up in a daze, the room was already empty. He was alone in the hotel room.
The messy bedsheets and scattered clothes all around served as reminders of his wild night.
The skills of the stranger from last night were indeed impressive, much gentler and more normal than the rich young masters he had hooked up with before.
As Yang Xingyun reminisced about the taste of last night, although he couldn’t get out of bed now, as long as it was for that enchanting experience, it was a sure win no matter how you looked at it.

Qi Yue had a dream, and unexpectedly, Yang Ruihuan and the lunatic he met at the last party appeared in his dream.
In the dream, that man was Yang Xingyun, Yang Ruihuan’s cousin.
Yang Ruiheng fabricated a story about himself to Yang Xingyun out of thin air, adding fuel to the fire, claiming that he was Yang Ruiheng’s pursuer and, despite being unaware of it, Yang Ruiheng eventually agreed to date him out of pity.
“As a result, this Qi Yue, who seemed innocent and honest, turned out to be an emotional fraud, the most adept at seducing men. I was just a bet for him after losing the game. It’s ridiculous. At that time, I even pitied him, but it turns out that everything I did in his eyes was just a pathetic act!”
Yang Ruiheng became more and more furious as he spoke, his eyes not only filled with anger but also with a hint of moisture.
If Qi Yue himself wasn’t another party involved, he might have been fooled by Yang Ruiheng’s nonsense.
However, as someone who had never interacted with Qi Yue before, Yang Xingyun didn’t hesitate to believe Yang Ruiheng’s words and solemnly declared, “Since this guy Qi Yue dares to play you like this, then he must be prepared to pay the price. Little Heng, you can rest assured, I’ll definitely avenge you.”
Then, the dream shifted to Qi Yue’s perspective from Yang Xingyun’s point of view. In the dream, there was also a party, but Qi Yue wasn’t with Shen Kuozhi as in reality. Instead, he encountered Yang Xingyun alone and was publicly humiliated by him, just like what happened in reality.
However, in the dream, Qi Yue didn’t endure Yang Xingyun’s humiliation silently but confronted him directly.
“Sir, let’s not talk about anything else for now. Firstly, I don’t know you at all, and what you said is nonsense. If you haven’t mistaken me for someone else, can I assume that you’re slandering me?”
“I’ve recorded the words you just said. If you dare to take responsibility for what you just said, we can go to the police station right now.”
In the dream, Qi Yue calmly countered the stranger’s false accusations with clear logic, without any evidence or credibility.
Seeing himself calmly and confidently responding to the stranger’s provocations from a third-person perspective was a strange experience for Qi Yue. It turned out that in the eyes of others, he was composed, calm, and articulate.
After listening to his logical words, the dream version of Yang Xingyun also became irritable and straightened his back, unwilling to admit defeat, saying defiantly, “Alright, let’s go then. What I said is true. I’m not afraid of you!”
