Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her-Chapter 617

Truth be told, the relationship between him and Ye Yuning was genuinely quite awkward. Ye Yuning had nearly married him, only to turn around and marry his closest friend of many years.

"I really can’t owe you too much," Ye Yuning said.

"Whether you can or not, that favor is already owed," Qin Jinchuan retorted.

He scoffed. This heartless woman, actually wanting to sever ties with *me* just like that? No way!

Since she had already severed ties with Xiao Linye, he really had nothing to worry about on his end. At most, it might be a bit difficult to explain things if Xiao Linye found out.

Evidently! Even now, Qin Jinchuan hadn’t given up on his original intentions for Ye Yuning.

When he first learned of her marriage to Xiao Linye, he had been genuinely angry. But now that he had calmed down, his thoughts returned to his original purpose for approaching Ye Yuning.

"Favors are owed, but money can’t be, right?" Ye Yuning pressed.

Debts of favor were already hard enough to repay! So, monetary debts that weren’t hard to repay definitely needed to be settled.

"Favors and money—you just keep on owing them to me, and make sure you do it properly!" Qin Jinchuan suddenly said, his tone forceful.

His abrupt, harsh tone made Ye Yuning freeze.

Seriously, this man was too tyrannical! Normally, when people were owed money, they couldn’t wait to get it back. But him? He was the opposite. Could it be he wanted her to be indebted to him for a lifetime? If that was the case, then this man was truly malicious. A lifetime! What did that even mean?

"This..."

"Shut up!"

Ye Yuning had just opened her mouth, not even finishing her sentence, when Qin Jinchuan abruptly shouted her down.

Ye Yuning pouted, looking at Qin Jinchuan with a pitifully wronged expression.

Her gaze made Qin Jinchuan’s heart waver slightly.

He had to admit, aside from being a bit petite, Ye Yuning was truly an out-and-out enchantress. Coincidentally, he liked petite women. Wait a minute, what on earth was he thinking now? It seemed he needed to deal with the Xiao Linye situation quickly! He’d wait. Wait until Xiao Linye and Qi Mulan were married. Once they were married, Xiao Linye couldn’t object anymore, could he?

"I want to be discharged," Ye Yuning mumbled.

The smell of disinfectant in the hospital was making her nauseous. In such an atmosphere, even the chicken soup tasted bland.

"You really don’t want the child anymore?" Qin Jinchuan asked.

At these words, Ye Yuning indeed fell silent.

She wanted the child!

She had to admit, this time she felt a bit like Tang Xi—not caring if the man involved was a human or a ghost. But from the beginning of this affair to its end, it had truly wounded her to the core. She wasn’t prepared to start a new relationship. Therefore, she absolutely had to keep this child.

Seeing her quiet down at the mention of the child, Qin Jinchuan felt even more irritable.

"I really don’t get you. In the future, when the child asks who their father is, how will you answer?"

That Ye Yuning would consider keeping the child under such circumstances was something Qin Jinchuan hadn’t expected. After all, according to the rumors about Ye Yuning, she was a woman unbound by any restraints. And for such a woman, after a shattered marriage and enduring so much suffering, to still be thinking about the child? This seemed very different from the rumors.

Ye Yuning sighed. "You were born with everything. From my earliest memories, I had nothing."

It was rare to encounter something that was completely hers; of course, she had to hold onto it well.

Hearing this, Qin Jinchuan fell even more silent.

What did she mean, ’had everything’? Did she think growing up with his parents meant he had everything? Forget it! He didn’t want to argue with her about these things now.

...

For the next few days, Ye Yuning stayed obediently in the hospital. And under Qin Jinchuan’s care, which involved a whole chicken daily, she recovered very quickly.

On the fifth day, when Ye Yuning saw it was chicken soup again, she was utterly dismayed. "Why is it chicken soup again?"

"Didn’t you say you wanted chicken soup?" Qin Jinchuan raised an eyebrow, puzzled by her reluctant expression.

"When did I say that?" Ye Yuning asked.

"That day!"

Ye Yuning was speechless. That day? Meaning the day she was first admitted to the hospital? Seriously, she’d been eating this for so many days; wasn’t she sick of it? Was Qin Jinchuan’s way of thinking really this rigid? That was days ago! No wonder he hadn’t asked her what she wanted to eat these past few days, just bringing chicken soup and chicken meat when it was mealtime. Did he really think that if someone wanted to eat something once, they’d want to eat it forever?

"Qin Jinchuan, I’ve eaten chicken for five days. Can we please have something different?"

"You don’t want to eat it now?"

Ye Yuning stared. Isn’t that a stupid question?

"Try eating braised pork for several days in a row and see how you like it," she retorted.

"I don’t like that!"

"Then what do you like to eat?"

"Bamboo shoots!" Qin Jinchuan replied. He genuinely loved bamboo shoots.

Ye Yuning’s mouth twitched. "So, do you eat them every day?"

"Yes," Qin Jinchuan nodded.

Ye Yuning was rendered completely speechless.

No wonder he just brought chicken soup when it was time. So, this man actually believed that if you liked something, you should always eat that same thing. Fine... How was she supposed to communicate with someone like this?

Ye Yuning pouted. "But I don’t want to eat it. I’m really sick of eating it every day."

"You don’t want to owe me a favor, yet you have so many demands?"

Ye Yuning was taken aback. Seriously, this! Did this mean she couldn’t even say anything about eating chicken constantly?

Her small nose reddened with grievance, and she looked at Qin Jinchuan with pleading, watery eyes.

After spending several days together, Ye Yuning no longer disliked Qin Jinchuan quite as much.
