The group's beloved wife: She is the phoenix, she is the king

Chapter 680: Breaking the Old and Establishing the New

The moment an obsession is released is the turning point to embracing a completely new self. — Prologue

Fan Nuoxi slowly raised her eyes, tears streaming down her face, "Brother..."

Then, Fan Nuoxi hugged Fan Chenyu's waist and cried. Although she didn't say anything, it seemed to speak louder than a thousand words.

Seeing this, Dongfang Junyan seemed to understand something.

She was actually just putting on a brave face the whole time.

Want to go home.

For some reason, Dongfang Junyan felt that his love for Fan Nuoxi was also a kind of constraint.

Yuan Qing was deeply moved by this scene, and her eyes welled up with tears.

These days, she could tell that these people were genuinely kind to Fan Nuoxi. They would occasionally complain about Fan Nuoxi acting impulsively, but their concern for her in action was no less.

She began to understand why Fan Nuoxi always kept her distance from her and Xin Zheng, and why she preferred to bear the burden herself when problems arose.

One is a close friend or relative who has been a part of your life for a long time, and the other is a new identity that suddenly appeared out of nowhere. The sense of disconnect is too strong.

Seeing Fan Nuoxi crying like this, Ran Yun subconsciously clenched her fists, trying to suppress the surging pain in her heart. Duan Heng gently held Ran Yun's clenched hand to comfort her, but his own eyes were also glistening with tears.

After a long while, Fan Nuoxi's mood gradually calmed down, but there was clearly a bit more dependence in her eyes when she looked at Fan Chenyu.

"Brother, I'm hungry."

Upon hearing this, Fan Chenyu quickly picked up Fan Nuoxi and placed her in the wheelchair. "What do you want to eat? Your brother will take you there."

"It's all right."

As she left the ward, Fan Nuoxi glanced reluctantly at Dongfang Junyan, who was waiting for a response, before chatting casually with Fan Chenyu.

The autumn sunlight felt especially warm on the brother and sister, yet it also carried a hint of sadness.

However, when faced with topics that even Fan Nuoxi herself is unwilling to discuss, she will remain silent.

"Little sister, can you tell your brother why you were so badly injured?"

Fan Nuoxi recalled the past, twisting the hem of her clothes, her eyes filled with pain.

"Brother... I just want to know who hurt you." Fan Chenyu pushed the wheelchair and, seeing Fan Nuoxi's little actions, quickly squatted down in front of her.

Looking into Fan Chenyu's sincere eyes, Fan Nuoxi's eyes flashed with a struggle, which ultimately turned into avoidance.

Ran Yun and Duan Heng, unaware of the truth, also wanted to know the answer to this question, but... they knew that Fan Nuoxi had just recovered from a serious illness and that her body and mind were not yet back to their previous state, so they couldn't bear to ask.

Fan Chenyu quickly grasped Fan Nuoxi's slightly trembling hand, wanting to offer her some warmth. "Little sister, you must have suffered too many grievances to keep quiet, right? Or... are you worried that your brother and others will be implicated?"

Fan Nuoxi withdrew her hand, a hint of panic in her eyes.

It was clear that he had been struck by a chord.

"sorry."

She couldn't say it, because she feared that the barrier between the two worlds would completely collapse due to some uncontrollable force, and at that time... everything in this world would also deviate from its original trajectory and develop in a more extreme direction.

Moreover, her body has not yet fully recovered, and she doesn't know what the situation is like in that world, what caused the problem, or whether anyone else besides them has survived.

Fan Chenyu seemed to see the fear hidden in Fan Nuoxi's eyes and slowly released his grip.

If before he was only skeptical about what kind of extraordinary encounter Fan Nuoxi had had, now it was as if he had received some kind of confirmation.

Concealing the sorrow in his eyes, Fan Chenyu stood up and pushed Fan Nuoxi out again, deliberately changing the subject and no longer mentioning those things.

……

After meal.

After obtaining Fan Nuoxi's wishes and the doctor's consent and instructions, the group busied themselves with completing the discharge procedures for Fan Nuoxi.

Due to her poor health, Fan Nuoxi will have to rely on a wheelchair for a period of time and receive rehabilitation training until she regains her ability to live a normal life.

Fan Nuoxi was not surprised to hear this news.

She had already suffered several serious injuries before, and no matter how well she recuperated, she could never return to her former self. This time, she almost lost her life, and her body is probably even worse than before.

It's just that others suffer as a result.

Due to various factors, Fan Nuoxi moved into the apartment where she had previously lived with Ran Yun for a long time.

This time, in addition to Ran Yun, Fan Chenyu and Yuan Qing also moved in.

Fan's parents knew nothing about the recent situation of the brother and sister, only assuming that Fan Chenyu was still on a business trip in another city and Fan Nuoxi was still doing research abroad.

As for Dongfang Junyan and Duan Heng, they were frequent visitors to the apartment.

Because Duan Heng is a doctor, he did a lot to help treat Fan Nuoxi, so Fan Chenyu naturally treated him with courtesy and even enthusiasm. However, he was very wary of Dongfang Junyan, the "yellow-haired" guy who wanted to kidnap his sister.

However... there are still times when the two of them accidentally come into contact, which makes Fan Chenyu very distressed.

This day, in the apartment.

Fan Nuoxi was the only one in the room. She was sleeping soundly when she suddenly felt hot all over. She accidentally kicked off the blanket.

The moment the blanket was pushed to one side, her legs, which were originally human legs, flashed with golden light and transformed into the hind legs of a tiger. Her pajamas, unable to withstand the sudden change, tore apart with a crack, and the tiger's tail also emerged from under the blanket.

"Clang-"

"Ping Ping Pong Pong——"

As the bed pressed down, its supports collapsed.

The loud noise finally woke up the sleeping Fan Nuoxi.

She opened her eyes somewhat blankly, looking at the broken bed beneath her and the tiger's claws pressing against her torn pajamas. Her mind went blank for a moment, followed by immense panic.

She hurriedly propped herself up, and the mattress beneath her snapped in mid-air, tearing the blanket in the process. But Fan Nuoxi couldn't care less about that now.

She rushed into the bathroom, trying to sit up and see what she looked like on the sink, but the sink couldn't support her now enormous body and broke down.

Fortunately, the water valve was closed, so the water didn't gush out.

Fan Nuoxi felt her heart bleed as she looked at the scene she had created.

I spent a lot of money designing this house, but now...

It took Fan Nuoxi a while to remember that there was a full-length mirror at home.

With her head drooping, Fan Nuoxi walked around the ruins she had created, and after a period of chaos, she finally arrived in front of the dressing mirror.

The mirror shows a majestic yet flustered tiger head, along with tiger claws capable of easily destroying mattresses and sofas, now nervously "admiring" its own "beauty."

You can still vaguely see the tiger's tail swaying back and forth in the mirror.

"Oh no, oh no, I was sleeping soundly, how did it suddenly turn into this?"

"If my brother and Xiaoyun came home from get off work and saw me like this, they'd be terrified!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Fan Nuoxi realized that she could speak, and her voice had a certain depth. She subconsciously squatted down on the ground and covered her mouth with her paws.

"Am I a talking tiger? No, a tiger that can transform into a tiger and speak human language?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the mirror in front of him shattered.

Fan Nuoxi was so frightened that she jumped onto the sofa.

"Clang—"

The sofa was instantly torn to shreds by the claws, which then sank into the soil.

Fan Nuoxi finally managed to free herself from the sofa after a lot of effort, leaving behind a mess.

Looking at everything before her with a sense of wanting to cry but having no tears, Fan Nuoxi thought to herself that if only she could use magic to fix it.

But... she has no idea why she suddenly turned into a tiger, and she can't sense the existence of the dumpling or that strange tentacle.

She was extremely conflicted, unsure of how to handle herself.

I finally finished my last rehabilitation training session a few days ago, and I thought I wouldn't have to bother my brother and friends anymore. Who could have imagined that this would happen a few days later...

"I can't possibly... wake up every day from now on and have to change my appearance like Martin the Conman..." Fan Nuoxi shuddered at the thought.

She felt that her future was bleak.

Especially all the household items, they might all be ruined in her hands, it's painful to even think about it.

Just then, the sound of a key being inserted into the lock came from the entrance hall.

Fan Nuoxi immediately perked up her ears and hid behind the curtains with lightning speed, her legs trembling and her teeth chattering.
