Chapter 1408: Chapter 1408: Nine Demons and One Nightmare (Part 6)
Duan Xin initially intended to offer the front passenger seat to Xiu Xi, but seeing him get into the back seat, he could only take the passenger seat himself.
As the car drove to the hospital entrance, it encountered another car coming in. Duan Xin, sitting in the passenger seat, saw the person in the front passenger seat of the opposite car and murmured quietly, “Isn’t that Nianian? Why is she coming to the hospital?”
Duan Qianyang heard him and followed his gaze to the opposite car, indeed seeing his young niece, Feng Nianian, sitting in the passenger seat, and rolled down the window.
“Nianian?”
The window of the opposite car was open.
Sitting in the passenger seat was a thirteen-year-old girl, wearing a pink princess dress with a student haircut. Her bangs were thick, covering her entire forehead, but the features beneath were delicate and beautiful. They were originally cast down, but upon hearing the shout from their car, she raised her head.
Ruan Jiaojiao sat in the position behind the passenger seat, able to see Feng Nianian, though Feng Nianian couldn’t see her.
When Duan Qianyang called Nianian, she suddenly raised her head, her heartbeat instantly racing to the limit, instinctively following the direction to look.
As she raised her head to look toward Feng Nianian’s position, Feng Nianian also lifted her eyes.
Almost upon meeting Feng Nianian’s eyes, her whole body stiffened.
It’s her.
It’s truly her.
These eyes, Ruan Jiaojiao had seen countless times in her dreams and a few times in reality—they couldn’t be mistaken.
Pitched black, hollow, like an abyss capable of dragging people to the bottom of a wicked cliff!
She would absolutely not mistake them.
And holding her, Xiu Xi, upon seeing Feng Nianian, his expression also changed, and he furrowed his eyebrows.
Feng Nianian followed the voice, glanced at Duan Qianyang, didn’t call out, but looked a few more times at Duan Xin beside him, pulling up the corners of her mouth into a smile that gave Duan Xin goosebumps all over his body, causing him to rub his arms hurriedly.
“Nianian, what brings you to the hospital?” asked Duan Qianyang, frowning.
Xiu Xi had warned him last time, and he’d had someone investigate this niece. What a shock upon investigation; such a large Feng Family, yet three young people had died in six years. More bizarre was that every time this niece coincidentally happened to be at the scene.
Duan Qianyang wasn’t superstitious, but this series of coincidences were hard to ignore, so ever since then, he arranged a driver for Duan Sishu to monitor this niece.
The driver accompanying Feng Nianian was the one Duan Qianyang arranged. Without his say, even if she was unwilling, the driver wouldn’t drive off, so he had to respond, “Mom’s not feeling well, she’s hospitalized.”
Feng Jin’s death deeply saddened Duan Sishu, and a few days after Feng Jin’s passing, Duan Sishu lost appetite and, weak and frail, was hospitalized today, surviving on IV nutrients.
Duan Qianyang then recalled that the driver had reported this to him, but he had forgotten amidst his busyness.
He nodded his head and said, “Take good care of your mom. Uncle will come by later to see her.”
“Alright,” Feng Nianian responded, her gaze sweeping over Duan Xin beside him again.
Duan Xin forced a smile, and once Duan Qianyang drove the car away, he exaggeratedly took deep breaths, clutching his chest.
