Chapter 30: Surviving A Disaster

Sponsored Content

After Lin Yu was sent to the hospital, she was in a coma for two days before waking up.
The attending doctor was a little confused about the examination report.
Although the patient was not at the peak of her health, all the indicators were still within the normal range, with only a few that were on the lower end.
That shouldn’t have caused a coma.

As this was a special case that had research value, the hospital had set up a special treatment team in order to find a proper diagnosis.

“Within a month, the patient has fainted three times, but we have not found a cause.” A woman in her fifties shook her head, “The victim is only 22, I hope that we can find a cure soon.”

“There is nothing wrong with her.
Could it be caused by brain lesions?” The head doctor took out the CT scans of the brain, “Although it seems fine, the brain is very complex.
We might not have detected it.”

When he said that, all the other doctors became quiet.
If they couldn’t find a specific cause, they couldn’t offer a treatment.

“What does this lady do for a living? Could it be caused by work?”

“According to an author of a well-known female literature website,” The head doctor thought for a moment, “It seems like many of these authors have the bad habit of lying upside down.
Besides, they have to think a lot about the plot of the novels.
Could the fainting be just her body protesting?”

“It is possible,” The female doctor furrowed her brows, “Let’s observe her for a few days and see if we could find something else.”

Doctors were like parents to the patients.
They didn’t want to see a young lady suffering from an unknown disease that would affect her future.

At this moment, the official website of Jinjiang Literature City posted on Weibo stating that the serialization of Lin Yu’s novel would be suspended as she was hospitalized three times this month due to an unknown illness.

In the comment section, almost no readers cared about whether the novel would be serialized or not.
Everyone was asking about Lin Yu, whether she could cover her medical fees, and whether she needed a donation.
Occasionally, a few trolls made some comments, but they were rebuffed by the others.

The managers of Literature City learned that one of their authors was seriously ill after they received a call from the police yesterday.
After learning that the police could not contact the patient’s parents, they called the emergency contact given by the author, but it was not a valid number.
In the end, they asked an editor to visit her in the hospital and provided some information to the police.

When Deng Linlin rushed to the hospital, Lin Yu hadn’t woken up yet.
She had just given all the information to the police when she heard the nurse say that the patient was awake.

Although she was an author of Jinjang Literature City, Lin Yu had never met the editor in real life.
So she felt a little awkward seeing Deng Linlin by her bed.

As an editor, Deng Linlin knew that the authors were very lively on the internet but not in reality.
So she took the initiative to talk to her to ease the awkward atmosphere.

After the two of them were more comfortable with each other, Lin Yu said hesitantly, “I think I’ve seen you somewhere before.
Is it the video that went viral on Weibo last time…”

After a long silence, Deng Linlin sighed, “Yes, it’s me.”

Lin Yu panicked.
Damn! She shouldn’t have mentioned it!

Just as the atmosphere was becoming awkward again, someone knocked on the door.
Aunty Wang walked in with a thermoflask.
She had also made Qi Yan come with her.

Coincidentally, when the friendly Aunty Wang heard that Lin Yu was awake, she bumped into Qi Yan who was taking a walk outside.
She was worried about her being alone in the hospital, so she bought some daily necessities for her in the supermarket.

Qi Yan saw that she was carrying a lot of things, so he helped her carry some stuff and came along to the hospital.

“Savior!” Deng Linlin jumped up from the chair when she saw Qi Yan.
She had forgotten about Lin Yu.
She walked emotionally towards Qi Yan and said, “It bothered me that I didn’t even know your name after you saved me.”

Qi Yan didn’t expect to bump into the person he saved here.
He put down the stuff and smiled, “It’s ok, I just did what I think I should do.”

“I heard from the police that if you hadn’t stabilized his emotions, I’d be in danger,” Deng Linlin’s eyes reddened when she mentioned the incident and became emotional.
When the news first came out, some people even said that it’s her fault for rejecting the man because he was poor.

But in reality, she was not close to the man at all.
After being suddenly proposed to and met with such an incident, she was the real victim.

She didn’t want to think about the incident anymore, but Deng Linlin was extremely grateful for Qi Yan.

Aunty Wang wanted to go home for lunch.
Seeing that Qi Yan seemed to know these young ladies, she gave Qi Yan a knowing look and left shortly.

Lin Yu, who was sitting on the hospital bed, never thought that there would be so many coincidences in the world.
No wonder she thought Qi Yan was familiar when she first saw him in the elevator.
It turned out that he was the hero in the video.
She had an even better impression of Qi Yan at this moment.
He was elegant, handsome, and had a sense of justice.
Such a man was too good to pass up on.
But thinking of the superbly handsome man who knew Qi Yan very well, Lin Yu realized that she didn’t have any romantic feelings toward him. 

After Qi Yan and Deng Linlin exchanged their contacts, he turned to look at Lin Yu who was sitting quietly on the bed.
The malicious energy around her body was still there, but it had decreased a little.
There was a little bit of prayer’s blessing around her.

The aura on this lady was so strange.
He hadn’t seen this contradictory aura in a long time.

Realizing that the cute boy was looking at her, Lin Yu smoothened her messy hair in embarrassment and said, “Mr.
Qi, is there something wrong with me?”

“May I ask what you do for a living?” Qi Yan revealed his two dimples when he smiled and had no idea that the two ladies in the room were screaming on the inside.

“I’m a writer who publishes stories online.
She is my editor.” Lin Yu was a little shy, “I didn’t expect you two to know each other.
It’s such a coincidence.”

Qi Yan looked at the strong prayer’s blessing around her and smiled, “You must have a lot of fans.”

“Ah?” Lin Yu smiled shyly but her eyes lit up, “Yes, they are really nice.”

Because of their support, she was able to emerge as a writer, and even had the financial ability to escape from her oppressive family and lived a comfortable life.
She didn’t have to be forced to get married and be made to feel inferior.
She even had a house of her own in Capital City. 

She couldn’t choose her family, but with the readers’ support, she had the opportunity to determine her future.

“Xiao Yu is a well-known author on our website.
She has published several novels and sold the rights to some movie makers,” Deng Linlin noticed that Lin Yu was embarrassed so she helped her explain, “Most readers really like her.”

“That’s amazing,” Qi Yan smiled at Lin Yu and took out his phone, “What’s the name of the website?”

Deng Linlin replied truthfully.

Qi Yan searched for the website called Jinjiang Literature City.
This website was full of energy.
Like many well-known websites, the amount of traffic had produced an invisible aura.
He opened an article at random, but what he saw was not the content of the novel, but a page error. 

Deng Linlin noticed his action and smiled a little embarrassedly, “The website server has been undergoing maintenance for the past two days, so browsing novels may not be so smooth.” 

Lin Yu squinted at her editor, who said this without blinking.
The server problem had only occurred once or twice.
She was lying to him knowing that he was unfamiliar with the website.

Qi Yan wasn’t very interested in reading novels.
After hearing what Deng Linlin said, he put the phone back in his trouser pocket.
Then, he looked at Lin Yu and said, “Looking at Miss Lin’s face, although growing up, you didn’t have a good relationship with your family, you and your future family will be very close.”

This sentence reminded Lin Yu of Qi Yan’s words to the man who assaulted her in the video.
She looked at Qi Yan curiously, “Do you really know how to tell fortune?” 

Qi Yan smiled, “A little.
Do you want me to do it for you? But according to the rules, there are only two situations where we don’t accept a fee.
The first one is if the person is disabled, and the other is if they are destined to be alone.”

“Sure.” Lin Yu didn’t think that Qi Yan would scam her.
The two live in the same building and would bump into each other often.
He wouldn’t make things weird between them just for that bit of money.
Besides, she was not short of money.
If Qi Yan was really a scammer, it was a good deal to spend the money to see the person for who they actually were. 

The most important thing was that since the last time she saw this cute guy secretly making some gestures in the elevator, she began to believe that he was an apprentice of a master, with powers that ordinary people did not have.
He might be able to slay demons and invite gods.
He was low-key and powerful. 

“There was nothing much about your childhood and adolescence,” Qi Yan looked at Lin Yu who seemed a little quiet, “The turning point of your life should have been three years ago, you made a big decision and your fate changed afterwards.” 

Lin Yu looked at Qi Yan in shock.
She fell out with her family three years ago and came to Capital City by herself.
In order to remove herself from her family’s household registration, they even fought in the police station and many people accused her of being unfilial.

However, she had no regrets.
Instead, she even considered herself brave enough to burn bridges.

“Everyone’s fate can change,” Qi Yan stretched out his arm towards Lin Yu, “I need a two hundred yuan deposit.”

Lin Yu patted her body and remembered that she didn’t bring her wallet, so she took out her phone and asked, “Can I transfer it to you?”

Qi Yan shook his head, “No, it has to go through your hand.”

“I have it,” Deng Linlin took out two hundred yuan and gave it to Lin Yu and she then passed it to Qi Yan, “Is this ok?”

“Yes,” Qi Yan took the money and swiftly folded the money into a diamond.
Each side of the diamond showed the face of the noble person.

“This is for you.
If you don’t mind my bad craftsmanship, take it with you,” Qi Yan noticed that Lin Yu looked confused and said gently, “You took control of your fate.
You will have a better life in the future.”

Lin Yu held the folded bills and said emotionally, “Thank you.”

Deng Linlin watched quietly and considered Qi Yan a god in her heart.
Even though she didn’t know if his fortune-telling was accurate or not, his heart was pure.

“As I said just now, you have a group of good fans,” Qi Yan looked at the aura of blessing on Lin Yu’s body, “Although I don’t know how many readers and friends you have, I think there should be many people who want you to recover.
You were able to wake up because these prayers have suppressed the malicious energy surrounding you.” 

Deng Linlin’s expression changed slightly.
Yesterday, after the website manager received news from the police, they posted about it on Weibo.
In just one day, many readers prayed for Lin Yu, and Lin Yu’s profile was awarded by many of them.
Hence, her ranking rose to the top 30 in the website overnight. 

Dear Readers.
Scrapers have recently been devasting our views.
At this rate, the site (creativenovels .com) might…let's just hope it doesn't come to that.
If you are reading on a scraper site.
Please don't.

Hearing this, she began to suspect that the cute guy really knew how to tell fortune.
But what was with the malicious energy? Could it be related to her fainting? Although she couldn’t figure out what’s going on, she thought that Qi Yan was so powerful.
Has she become a fan of his? 

Lin Yu didn’t expect Qi Yan to say that to her.
Just as she was about to ask, Qi Yan’s phone rang.

In the hospital, the Cen family was surrounding Third Master Cen who was lying in the hospital bed.
They felt like they had escaped a disaster.

Third Master Cen touched his wounded arm and smiled bitterly under his family’s concerned gaze, “I don’t know what happened.
The moment I opened my eyes, I’m already in the hospital.”

After being informed about the urgent meeting, he hurriedly left for the meeting in a hotel.
As it was a serious matter and the content was confidential, the whole department had to stay in the hotel for two days.

When the meeting ended this morning, the driver came to pick him up.
He fell asleep in the car and when he was awake, he saw his wife who had been crying.

“Third Brother, you’re so lucky this time.” First Master Cen was still in shock.
He saw the surveillance video by the road.
The car that his brother was sent flying after colliding with a truck.
The car even rolled several times on the ground and broke the roadside guardrail before stopping.

The surveillance video footage of less than a minute made him tremble with fear.
Anyone who watched it would feel that the people in the car would be seriously injured if they didn’t die.
But miraculously, the driver had no injuries other than a broken leg.
As for his brother, he only had a slight concussion and a bruise on his arm. 

“If you could survive a disaster, you will have good luck,” Second Sister Cen held her brother and said to Third Master Cen, “You scared Jingyan to death.” 

Jingyan turned around to not look at her husband and wiped the corners of her eyes.

“I’m sorry for making you all worry,” Third Master Cen looked regretfully at his wife.

“Do you know you almost died this time?” Cao Jingyan couldn’t hold back her emotions any longer, she walked to the hospital bed and grabbed the Third Master Cen’s hand, sobbing softly.
But after crying twice, she remembered that her husband still had a concussion, so she held back the crying and put the phone into Third Master Cen’s hands, “This is the video footage I copied , see for yourself.” 

Brother Cen clicked on the video and saw that his car, like a 360-degree backflip, was knocked away by a fast-moving truck and fell heavily on the guardrail. 

After watching the footage, he broke out in a cold sweat, “How is the driver?”

The car was completely destroyed, the driver must be…

“He is fine.
He only suffered a minor fracture and is resting in the hospital,” First Master Cen sighed, “We haven’t told dad about this yet.
He might get too worried.”

Third Master Cen nodded in understanding and remembered the amulet that his brother gave him.
He touched his trouser pocket and it was indeed still there.
He opened the pouch and saw that there was only some ashes in it.

He raised his head and looked around but he didn’t see his brother, “Where is Baihe?”

“He was here just now,” First Master Cen walked around to look for him, “Maybe he had gone out when we were talking just now.”

Cao Jingyan saw her husband holding a strange little pouch embroidered with the Chinese character “blessing”, and asked in confusion, “What is this?”

“Baihe gave it to me before I left.” Third Master Cen looked confused, as if he had witnessed a strange scene.

Before going to bed last night, he had looked into the pouch out of curiosity.
At that time, there was a piece of yellow paper in it.

In just one night, the yellow paper turned into ashes.
What kind of chemical reaction is this?

Cao Jingyan looked at her husband suspiciously.
Their youngest brother, who was usually a serious person, would give him such a beautiful pouch with ashes for fun?
