Li Tingshen glanced at her coldly. “Why are you with him?”
Ye Qingqiu said matter-of-factly, “We’re from the same class and club. Isn’t it normal for us to be together?”
Li Tingshen turned around and opened the door to the passenger seat. Ye Qingqiu bent down to enter, but Li Tingshen grabbed her arm.
“What club?”
“Uh… coding.”
!!Li Tingshen narrowed his dark eyes. “Can’t you get over this hobby? How long has it been since the popularity has dissipated?”
Ye Qingqiu smiled and said, “I’m quite impressed that I can last so long this time. Perhaps in a few years, you’ll have to hire me with a high salary to work for you. Let go of me, it hurts.”
Li Tingshen let go of her arm and snorted. “I’m afraid you haven’t typed many codes. If you encounter a commercial spy, I’ll capture you and force you to confess. You’ll sell me in less than two minutes.”
The smile on Ye Qingqiu’s face disappeared.
She glared at Li Tingshen. “Look down on me? I can still last for five minutes.”
“Ha.” The man couldn’t help but chuckle. “Get in.”
Ye Qingqiu snorted lightly and bent down to enter.
The moment the car started, Ye Qingqiu told Li Tingshen about her encounter with Qin Jianjia.
Li Tingshen stepped on the brakes and glanced at her before letting go.
“I’m fine. Xu Wenxuan was there too. I didn’t even have the chance to talk to him.”
Li Tingshen pursed his lips tightly.
“Qin Hao went to school today to drop out of school. I also heard that he sold a few properties under his name. Xu Wenxuan is worried that he might do something extreme again, especially to you…”
“You won’t speak if you don’t mention Xu Wenxuan?” Li Tingshen’s deep voice interrupted her, his displeasure evident.
Ye Qingqiu paused and said, “Of course, I think so too.”
The car sped up and brought Ye Qingqiu to the apartment.
*
There was still a month before the wedding.
Next month was Ye Qingqiu’s birthday, her wedding anniversary, and her wedding.
July had become the happiest month of her life.
Ye Qingqiu’s wedding gown was custom-made by the designer Li Tingshen had hired from Country F two months ago.
She would probably arrive in two days.
The jewelry was specially customized by Ye Jianyun from Country B.
The wedding house had been completed and the renovation was personally supervised by Ye Qingqiu.
She had personally designed and arranged all the details.
After all, this was where she would live with Li Tingshen for the rest of her life.
There were still some custom-made furniture that had not arrived, but it was only for the past two days.
Even Li Tingshen felt tired for her.
He went to the wedding room several times to bring her back.
She had also been lectured in various ways.
She had begged for mercy before, and Li Ting believed her.
If she admitted defeat this time, she wouldn’t dare to do it again.
However, the last time was when she received a call from the renovation company yesterday. They said that the custom-made furniture was ready and that she needed to go to the scene to command the furnishings. When she said that she was about to go, she was pressed onto the bed by Li Tingshen and had sex with him. Her limbs went limp and she felt weak all over. Until the next day, she couldn’t get out of bed.
Li Tingshen threatened her ruthlessly on the bed. She was terrified and begged for mercy. She swore a hundred times that she wouldn’t do it again.
Recalling their shameless act back then, she didn’t even have the courage to go out now.
Looking at the spots on her body, Ye Qingqiu cursed a certain someone countless times in the room.
Li Tingshen arranged for Xiao Chu to attend the renovation.
Before noon on the third day, Li Tingshen called Ye Qingqiu to the Li Corporation.
Ye Qingqiu felt suffocated. She washed up as quickly as possible and took out all the clothes that could cover her skin.
She was wearing black slim-fit pants and a white silk shirt with a lotus leaf collar.
Just as she got out of the car, Li Tingshen called.
“Where are we?”
“I’m downstairs.”
“Wait, I’ll bring you down for lunch.”
“Okay.”
Seeing Ye Qingqiu’s outfit today, Li Tingshen raised an eyebrow. He had never seen her dressed like this.
The delicate little princess now looked like a professional woman.
“Not hot?”
The long sleeves did not match the weather today.
Ye Qingqiu glanced at him. “Whose fault is it?”
Li Tingshen understood instantly. He chuckled and held her waist as they walked out of the company.
It was obvious that she had put in a lot of effort into choosing the location for lunch.
It tasted pretty good.
“You didn’t call me out just because you found this decent restaurant, right?”
“No. I have a surprise for you this afternoon.”
Ye Qingqiu raised an eyebrow and asked a stupid question, “What surprise?”
Li Tingshen glanced at her calmly and remained silent.
Ye Qingqiu didn’t probe further.
Since it was a surprise, it would definitely not come from anyone.
After lunch, Ye Qingqiu ate the cake slowly.
Looking around the restaurant, the decor was tasteful. It was indeed a good place.
However, when she saw Li Tingshen looking at his watch for the third time, most of her satisfaction disappeared.
“You have urgent work?”
Li Tingshen looked up at her calmly. “She was discharged today.”
Ye Qingqiu paused and remembered that her father had called her yesterday to tell her about this. She had forgotten about it.
After finishing the last bite of cake, she replied casually, “Oh, then let’s go.”
Li Tingshen’s gaze followed her hand and landed on the fork. There was a faint emotion in his calm eyes.
“Finished eating?”
“I’m done.”
Li Tingshen stood up. “Let’s go then.”
Ye Qingqiu picked up the glass of water and took a sip slowly. When Li Tingshen turned to look at her, she put down the glass and stood up slowly.
Then, she looked at Li Tingshen with a smile and walked towards him.
Li Tingshen held her hand.
Ye Qingqiu was pulled along by him.
“Have you decided on the scene for her?”
“Yes.” Li Tingshen turned to fasten her seatbelt and said bluntly, “It’s the highlight of this year’s C&P drama.”
“The drama you chose for Luoluo back then wasn’t C&P’s. Luoluo also won an award for that drama. C&P isn’t the only one who has the main drama…”
Ye Qingqiu turned to look at the tense man and the smile on her face deepened. “We’ve agreed that once she’s discharged and you promise her a drama, we’ll have nothing to do with each other.”
“Yeah.”
Ye Qingqiu didn’t say anything else.
She had endured until now and was only a step away from the outcome.
There was indeed no need to say or do anything now.
Actually, there shouldn’t be any accidents.
Liang Xuer was discharged from the hospital to film a drama.
Her marriage to Li Tingshen was announced to the world.
Everyone was happy and no one owed anyone anything.
*
When they reached the hospital, everyone was there.
Old Master Ye and Ye Jianyun nodded.
Everything was packed.
It was as if he was waiting for them, or rather, only Li Tingshen.
Liang Xuer was wearing a long plain dress, revealing her slender and fair calves. Her movements were no different from before.
Seeing Li Tingshen, Lian Lili heaved a sigh of relief.
“Alright, let’s hurry home. I really don’t want to stay in this hospital any longer.”
Ye Qingqiu was holding a bouquet of flowers. When she saw Liang Xuer, she didn’t intend to send it over. She just raised her eyebrows and smiled at her. “Congratulations on your recovery.”
Li Tingshen walked up and handed the document to Liang Xuer.
“What I promised to give you.”
Liang Xuer took it and flipped it open. It was the script.
She clenched her fists and raised her head to laugh, but tears welled up in her eyes.
“Are you that eager? I haven’t even left the hospital and you’re in such a hurry to cut ties with me?”
Li Tingshen replied indifferently, “A discharge gift.”
Liang Xuer bit her lip.
Li Lili hurried forward to comfort Liang Xuer and glared at Li Tingshen. “Can’t you give me another time?”
“She knows very well that it’s only a matter of time. The filming starts early next month. You’re the female lead, so be prepared.”
Tears streamed down Liang Xuer’s face. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth. “You…”
At the side, Ye Jianyun suddenly said in a low voice, “Alright! If you want a drama, the Ye family has the capital to help you. Back then, we discussed such conditions with Tingshen. Everyone knows what we’re thinking. We’ve already given you a lot of face by agreeing. Now, we’re just fulfilling our promise. Do you think it’s a good time?”
“Then what time do you think is good?”
Ye Qingqiu was a little surprised that her father had become so stubborn today.
Before she was discharged, she had already suffered at Li Tingshen’s hands. He stabbed her again.
Liang Xuer’s face froze. She didn’t expect Ye Jianyun to say that.
Her tears were like a fountain in Ye Qingqiu’s eyes.
The way she cried silently was really pitiful.
“Ye Jianyun, what nonsense are you spouting now?” Lian Lili was a little angry as she glared at him.
“Is that nonsense? Qingqiu and Tingshen are getting married soon! When is she going to give up and let the two of them off?”
“The three of us elders came to fetch her from the hospital, but what happened in the end? She sat there, determined to wait for someone to come! If she doesn’t move, we have to wait with her! No matter how spoiled Qingqiu is, she can’t do something as unpresentable and selfish as this!”
“All these years, the Ye family has been sincere to her. What did they get in return?”
It turned out that Liang Xuer was really waiting for Li Tingshen.
Ye Qingqiu looked at Liang Xuer sarcastically.
After Ye Jianyun finished speaking, he pulled up the tired Old Master, who was sitting on a chair with a walking stick.
“If I’m the only one here today, I can wait with you! Your grandfather is so old. He came to pick you up on an empty stomach to have lunch with you. You’re really good…”
Ye Jianyun had vented all his anger on Liang Xuer.
She was indeed capable to force a gentle and polite person like him to such an extent.
Liang Xuer blinked and suddenly realized that she was in the wrong.
However, the person she looked up at wasn’t Ye Jianyun, nor was it the hungry and tired old man.
It was Li Tingshen, who was beside Ye Qingqiu.
Even if she was embarrassed, she seemed to only care about Li Tingshen’s opinion.
Ye Qingqiu walked to the bed and threw the flowers into the bin.
She walked up to Liang Xuer, the smile on her face frighteningly cold.
“What are you doing?” Lian Lili looked at Ye Qingqiu warily and stepped forward to protect Liang Xuer.
Ye Qingqiu’s lips curled into an obvious smile and the grip on her hand that was hidden in her pocket gradually loosened.
“Why are you so nervous? Do you also think that Liang Xuer deserves a beating?”
Lian Lili was speechless.
“Liang Xuer, as the granddaughter of the Ye family, it’s understandable for you to be a little arrogant. However, you have to be clear-headed. Since others have taught you how to be a person, you should learn to be humble. Don’t think that you’re so great.”
How long have you lived? How long have Grandpa and Dad lived? The Ye Corporation is stable in the hands of the two of them, but it’s one of the top companies in the world now. How many people want to build a relationship with them? To call each other brothers and be friends? They are clear about their success or failure! Why is it that when it comes to you, they don’t even deserve the most basic respect?”
“No wonder Li Tingshen doesn’t like you. He’s really blind to like you. In fact, other than the young master of the Qin family, no man would really like you. Unless you have some good looks!”
Liang Xuer was trembling with anger. She bit her lips so hard that blood seeped out.
Ye Qingqiu chuckled and said, “So be it. What’s the point of staying here when everyone is here? Go back and film well. After all, this script isn’t easy to come by.”
Lian Lili held Liang Xuer’s trembling arm tightly. “Alright, Xu’er, let’s talk after you’re discharged. We’ll leave first.”
She had to be discharged eventually.
Liang Xuer glared at Ye Qingqiu’s back, unable to hide the hatred in her eyes.
Lian Lili pinched her arm and patted her back gently.
Her tensed eyes blinked and her body slowly relaxed.
The group arrived at the entrance of the hospital where three cars were parked.
On the steps of the hospital, Ye Qingqiu held Li Tingshen’s arm and looked at Lian Lili and Liang Xuer.
“Li Tingshen, do you think Liang Xuer can really keep her promise to you?”
Li Tingshen lowered his eyes to look at her. “Why did you suddenly ask that?”
Ye Qingqiu looked up at him with a helpless and sarcastic smile on her face. “I just suddenly feel that she’s not someone who keeps her promises. She’s too competitive, especially towards me. She won’t give up on you just like that. You said that you’ve taken care of her and promised her a script. Can these be more important to her than her life? Come to think of it, she doesn’t seem to be taking advantage of your agreement. Can she really let it go?”
Li Tingshen frowned. “…I’m married, Mrs. Li.”
Ye Qingqiu smiled and said, “But if I can’t handle the relationship between mother and daughter-in-law, I’ll say it.”
She sighed and said, “As long as your mother likes Liang Xuer, she will hate me. Then I can be kicked out at any time.”
A blue flame suddenly rose in his deep eyes, and his tone was stiff.
“Don’t spout nonsense!”
Ye Qingqiu sighed again. She tiptoed and rested her chin on the man’s shoulder.
“Liang Xuer, your most important mother is your backer. Look at me, how pitiful am I without anything? Are you really not going to consider giving the Li Corporation to me? That way, I can still have some confidence.”
Li Tingshen looked at her lightly. “I’ve already told you about this.”
Ye Qingqiu pouted in disappointment. When she turned around, she suddenly saw a figure standing behind the tempered door of the hospital. He was wearing a black hat and a black mask. Only his eyes were exposed as he looked at her coldly.
She was flustered by his gaze and staggered. When she turned around, the man seemed to be smiling at her. He waved the phone in his hand, turned around, and disappeared.
Li Tingshen caught her in time. “What’s wrong?”
Ye Qingqiu pointed at the door behind her. “I think I saw an acquaintance just now…”
She could only say that it was familiar, but she couldn’t tell who it was from her outfit.
Li Tingshen turned around and looked at the crowd in the hall. He couldn’t tell who Ye Qingqiu was familiar with.
“Who?”
Li Tingshen asked her.
Ye Qingqiu frowned and thought for a while before shaking her head. “I probably recognized the wrong person.”
