Chapter 2699: Their Ghosts or Their Fakes?
Ning Shu just silently stared at Cheng Fei, and he gazed back at her equally quietly.
Neither of them said anything.
Cheng Fei had finally decided to take Ning Shu to meet his parents.
She didn’t know if he’d take her to meet their ghosts or their fakes.
Before they left for the trip, Ning Shu prepared a lot of things. She prepared daggers, medicine powders, and so on.
This time, she’d definitely force Cheng Fei to expose his fox tail.
On the day of departure, Cheng Fei lifted his suitcase and went downstairs to wait for Ning Shu.
Ning Shu went downstairs with her bags and walked in front of Cheng Fei.
Cheng Fei took Ning Shu’s bags and carried one in each hand.
Ning Shu walked beside Cheng Fei and asked, “Should I buy something for your parents? Since I’m their daughter-in-law, I must buy something when I visit them.”
“There’s no need for that. My parents are very easygoing. If you want to buy them gifts, you can wait until we get off the plane. After all, we already have so much luggage.
“Or you can also just wait and go shopping with them. You can just pay for what they like.” Cheng Fei turned his head towards Ning Shu and smiled. “By the way, did you bring any money with you? I’ll give you my card.”
Ning Shu: …
How could he discuss dead people in such a relaxed manner, like they were just off living their best life?
Ning Shu really wanted to offer a kneel. It was the first time that she’d met a person like Cheng Fei.
He didn’t even look the slightest bit unnatural.
If Ning Shu hadn’t found out that Cheng Fei’s adoptive parents were dead, she would’ve really believed that they were still around.
Cheng Fei and Ning Shu boarded the plane. Soon, the plane departed.
Ning Shu looked at the white clouds outside the window.
“Ai Yun, I want to apologize to you for something,” Cheng Fei whispered to Ning Shu.
Ning Shu nodded. “What is it?”
“Regarding your mental illness, I asked several experts to diagnose you, and everyone told me the same thing—that you have persecution delusions, so…”
“So what?” Ning Shu stared at Cheng Fei.
Honestly speaking, mental disorders were not easy to identify and diagnose. The person next to her right now, for example, looked like a normal person, but was he?
Ning Shu felt that he was not normal at all.
“About the cameras… I know they made you unhappy, and I apologize for that. I just hope that you won’t mention this incident in front of my parents.”
Ning Shu: …
Damn. Was Cheng Fei really going to take her to hell? From how serious he was, Ning Shu nearly believed that she’d really meet his parents.
She nodded. “I won’t say anything. Don’t worry.”
Ning Shu pulled down her sleep mask and covered her eyes. She could smell the faint aroma of disinfectant on Cheng Fei’s body.
There was also some bitter scent from the Western medicine he used.
Seeing that Ning Shu didn’t want to talk to him, Cheng Fei could only sigh.
He reached out and grabbed Ning Shu’s hand. His palm was sweaty.
Ning Shu took off the sleep mask and saw that Cheng Fei’s face was pale. “Are you afraid of heights?”
Cheng Fei forced a smile to his face. “I am.”
Ning Shu didn’t believe him. Not even the slightest bit.
Wasn’t he just trying to trick her? He was afraid when he was on the plane, but didn’t he live in a skyscraper? He didn’t seem so afraid of heights then.
Ning Shu caringly comforted him. “Don’t be afraid.”
“When a plane crashes, it won’t tumble around like a car.”
Cheng Fei: …
These were no comforting words.
Cheng Fei kept holding onto Ning Shu’s hand on the plane. His palm was extremely sweaty, and it made Ning Shu very uncomfortable. When they got off the plane, she quickly wiped her hand with a tissue.
Cheng Fei’s face was so pale that he seemed about to faint, but Ning Shu didn’t even know if he was faking it or not.
Cheng Fei was too confusing.
