Chapter 172 Accidents

"I don't believe you at all, nor do I believe what you said." Chen Feng's tone was cold as he looked at Hua Rushang. Then he said, "You must know about this matter. Since you're unwilling to tell me, then forget it. I won't force you. I've never liked making things difficult for others."

Hua Rushang took a deep breath and said, "Why don't you believe me? I've already told you, I really don't know anything about this. I haven't even heard of such a thing."

Chen Feng looked at Hua Rushang and said, "You are a member of the Ghost Doctor clan. Now you tell me you don't know anything. Do you think I will believe you? I don't know either. Are you deliberately hiding something?"

Hua Rushang rubbed her temples, feeling that the person in front of her was simply being unreasonable. She said, "I really don't know about this. How many times do I have to explain it to you before you believe me?"

"You don't need to explain. Anyway, I won't believe you, so save your breath." Chen Feng's tone was indifferent, as if nothing concerned him.

Hua Rushang looked at Chen Feng, sighed deeply, pursed her lips, and said, "I already told you I really don't know what's going on. If I knew, why wouldn't I tell you? Besides, why should I, as a member of the Ghost Doctor clan, be obligated to know this? Huh?"

Chen Feng frowned as he looked at Hua Rushang. Could it be that Hua Rushang really didn't know? But how could the Ghost Doctor Clan not know about this? Could there be some problem? Where exactly did things go wrong? Chen Feng licked his teeth and looked at Hua Rushang. When Hua Rushang saw that Chen Feng was still looking at her with that same gaze, she immediately exploded.

"I've already said I don't know, so why are you still looking at me like that? Do you think that just because you're looking at me, I'll know and I'll tell you?" Hua Rushang looked at Chen Feng, frowned, and said, "Given the current situation and how you treat me, even if I knew, I'd keep it to myself."

Chen Feng looked at Hua Rushang expressionlessly. Hua Rushang took a deep breath, forced a smile, and said, "Chen Feng, you've got guts! I'll let you think what you want, think whatever you want." With that, Hua Rushang angrily flicked her sleeve and stormed off.

As Hua Rushang walked, she remembered Chen Feng's expression earlier, as if he knew exactly what was going on. What was going on? Could it be that he should have known, but someone intercepted him on the way? That's why he hadn't received the information yet.

Hua Rushang turned to look in Chen Feng's direction, but he was no longer there. Hua Rushang pondered for a while, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong.

Chen Feng looked around and, seeing no suspicious people, patted the little girl's head and said, "Do you want to stay by my side? I can protect you. I won't let you be bullied by bad people. See? Okay? Do you want to stay by my side?"

The little girl didn't know what Chen Feng and Hua Rushang were talking about. She looked up at Chen Feng, who smiled and said, "Little girl, what's wrong? Are you hungry?" Chen Feng's voice was unusually gentle.

The little girl shook her head rapidly, almost like a rattle-drum, making Chen Feng chuckle. Chen Feng squatted down and looked at the little girl, saying, "What's wrong? Tell your brother, are you feeling unwell?" The little girl shook her head again, and Chen Feng, feeling a bit exasperated, rubbed the little girl's head.

"Just tell me what you want. I'm not a little girl, I can't guess what you're up to. If you keep doing this, your big brother's head is going to turn into mush. Do you really want to see your big brother's head turn into mush?" Chen Feng looked at the little girl, acting all coquettish.

The little girl was amused and said in a sweet, soft voice, "Big brother, what were you talking about with that big sister? I think she was angry. Dad said that girls need to be coaxed when they are angry. Like me, whenever I am unhappy or cry, Dad buys me candied hawthorns. Girls need to be cherished."

Chen Feng smiled as he looked at the little girl in front of him and said, "Your father is right. Girls should be cherished and pampered. After all, boys are heavier and can't be lifted up, right? Hahaha."

The little girl laughed for a while, but her attention soon returned. She stared intently at Chen Feng and said, "Big brother, don't change the subject. You didn't answer the question I just asked you. My father said that you shouldn't answer irrelevantly."

Chen Feng took a deep breath, shook his head, and said, "You wouldn't understand even if I told you. But your father is a good man. He's right. Girls are gifts from heaven, so you have to protect yourself. Do you hear me, little girl?"

The little girl nodded and said, "I'm super obedient, big brother. I've been good, so, big brother, would you consider buying me a candied hawthorn?" The little girl's eyes were already fixed on the uncle selling candied hawthorns.

Chen Feng smiled and shook his head, saying, "Come on, big brother will buy you a candied hawthorn." With that, Chen Feng took the little girl's hand and walked to the uncle, saying, "Uncle, I want a candied hawthorn made purely from hawthorn." The uncle gave the little girl the candied hawthorn, Chen Feng paid, and then left.

Chen Feng watched the little girl happily eating the candied hawthorn and said to the older boy, "This candied hawthorn is so delicious!"

“Little girl, if you ever encounter someone with a hostile look, just run, understand? Anyone who tries to kidnap you is a bad guy. You’d better carry a dagger with you for self-defense,” Chen Feng said to the little girl in front of him.

It's unclear whether the little girl understood or not, but she nodded anyway. Chen Feng looked at the little girl and said in a low voice, "Do you know who kidnapped you? I had already tied him up, but to my surprise, he actually committed suicide by poisoning himself."

The little girl listened to what the older boy was saying, but his voice was too soft. After she finished eating, she looked at him and asked, "Big brother, what were you saying? What about committing suicide by poison? I only heard part of it. Can you tell me?"

Chen Feng nodded and said, "You must protect yourself. You know, the person who kidnapped you was caught, but he committed suicide by poisoning himself."
