Chapter 269

Logically speaking, as a key character in the book, even if Feng Yunhe lost a single hair, it would have been seriously documented.

Shi Li searched through her memories but couldn't find any recollection of him having an accident during this time.

Shi Li suspected either her memory was faulty, or Feng Yunhe wasn't really hurt at all and was just pretending to be sick. As for why he would fake illness, it probably had something to do with company matters.

This pretend illness, she thought, must be part of Feng Yunhe's scheme.

Shi Li believed this firmly, until she heard that Feng Yunhe wasn't pretending at all - his injuries were severe, even worse than when Feng's Father had his car accident.

Zuo Hengyi said, "It was extremely dangerous. He almost died. He's lucky to be alive, and it's fortunate he was taken to the hospital in time, otherwise he'd be gone by now."

The book never mentioned Feng Yunhe suffering such severe injuries, and this incident never happened in her previous life.

As the male lead, Feng Yunhe rarely got injured in the original story. The injury scenes were usually reserved for the female lead Liang Rongrong and the secondary female characters.

Feng Yunhe only needed to stand there looking beautiful while women fought over him.

From what she remembered, Feng Yunhe's only injury should have occurred last year during a natural disaster, when his car was buried under mud and sand, and he was supposedly rescued by Liang Rongrong who happened to be passing by.

This incident was meant to be a major development in the relationship between Feng Yunhe and Liang Rongrong.

She saved him, but he thought she had saved herself, leading to a misunderstanding.

However, for some unknown reason, Feng Yunhe didn't have that accident last year. Instead, Feng's Father inexplicably got into a car accident and has been in the hospital ever since. Even now, Feng's Father hasn't fully recovered and needs frequent hospital stays.

The hospital particularly welcomed wealthy patients like Feng's Father who were frequently ill.

Zuo Hengyi, completely unaware he was gossiping about his friend, continued with an air of someone enjoying the drama, "It's really strange. When the hail started falling, the chunks were as big as fists, and coincidentally, Yunhe was outside alone."

Shi Li suddenly imagined an eagle walking through the hailstorm, and couldn't help thinking how hard Bai Sheng's head must be. The government should take him away for bulletproof material research.

"Thankfully, Liang Rongrong happened to pass by and found Yunhe lying in a pool of blood."

"So Feng Yunhe was saved by Liang Rongrong?" Shi Li asked with difficulty.

Zuo Hengyi nodded, saying it was fortunate that Liang Rongrong found him, otherwise he wouldn't have survived.

Shi Li found it interesting that although Feng Yunhe had avoided his fate six months ago, he still ended up in an accident and was coincidentally saved by Liang Rongrong.

If this weren't a typical CEO romance novel, Shi Li would have suspected Liang Rongrong of controlling the hailstorm to nearly kill Feng Yunhe.

Zuo Hengyi continued rambling, "Though the hail that day was large, it shouldn't have been deadly. I checked the weather reports and news - in other areas, the hailstones were only the size of snowflakes, painful when they hit but not enough to cause injury. Only where Yunhe was did fist-sized ice chunks appear. Honestly, I'm starting to wonder if Yunhe's life has been too smooth sailing and heaven decided to send down some divine punishment to keep him in check."

The ice chunks' appearance was so unusual that the Feng family suspected someone might be trying to harm Feng Yunhe and investigated the surveillance footage.

However, it wasn't a murder attempt - their precious son had simply encountered extraordinarily bad luck, with several huge hailstones targeting his head.

If anyone was trying to harm Feng Yunhe, it had to be heaven itself.

Shi Li's face scrunched up in doubt as she questioned Zuo Hengyi, "Hail the size of fists? How big could that really be?"

She wondered if Zuo Hengyi was exaggerating.

Seeing her doubt, Zuo Hengyi pulled out his phone and opened some photos. "Look at this. I never lie."

The photo showed half-melted hailstones, with ice water and blood mixing on the ground, making Shi Li grimace.

The next was a fifteen-second video, clearly from that day's surveillance footage based on its quality.

Though the footage was somewhat blurry, it had been enhanced, showing how the hail started as normal snowflake-sized pieces, but after Feng Yunhe went outside, they suddenly transformed into fist-sized ice balls that came crashing down.

Shi Li clicked her tongue in amazement, "That hail is enormous."

She couldn't help but internally mock: [Wow, Feng Yunhe's head must be incredibly solid to survive being hit by such huge hailstones]

Zuo Hengyi thought: She claims to like Feng Yunhe, yet instead of showing concern, she's just impressed by how solid his head is. Well, to be fair, that was his first thought too when he saw the hail.

[The weather forecast warned about extreme weather and advised staying indoors. This is what happens when you don't listen]

Zuo Hengyi felt Shi Li's tone wasn't that of an admirer, but rather someone taking pleasure in the misfortune.

He tried to convince himself that Shi Li was just worried sick.

The next moment, Zuo Hengyi witnessed what appeared to be Shi Li's genuine concern.

She asked anxiously, "How is Brother Yunhe now? Is he okay? Has he regained consciousness? Are there any lasting effects?"

On this topic, Zuo Hengyi had to marvel at Feng Yunhe's incredible resilience. Fist-sized hail would have killed anyone else instantly.

Though the doctors said Feng Yunhe would have died if he'd arrived a few minutes later, his luck held out. He wasn't killed instantly, was found in time, rushed to the hospital promptly, successfully resuscitated, and survived.

Despite such a fatal injury, after entering the emergency room, he regained full consciousness the very next day, though he temporarily couldn't walk.

He truly had an amazing will to live.

People have different destinies, and even among the wealthy, fate plays favorites.

Take the Elder Son of the Xiao Family, for instance - they say his vital signs are normal, yet he remains unconscious.

The Xiao family suspects their son has been cursed and is searching everywhere for spiritual masters to perform rituals.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"He's already awake. Would you like to visit him at the hospital?"
