Chapter 2084: Untitled Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios There was a faint smile in Li Tingshen’s eyes, but he was still surprised to hear Bo Jinchuan’s words. Even the usually calm and gentlemanly CEO Bo could not help but curse. But thinking that it was because of Shen Fanxing, she wasn’t surprised. His lips curled into a light smile as he concealed the expression in his eyes. “I’ve never seen Sister-in-law so flustered.” Bo Jinchuan ignored him and asked, “Have you arranged for the surgery tomorrow?” Li Tingshen frowned and looked up at Bo Jinchuan. “Why… are you investigating me?” “I don’t have that kind of hobby yet.” Bo Jinchuan glanced in the direction Shen Fanxing had left and said calmly, “I heard Grandma mention it today.” Although he didn’t know what they knew, Li Tingshen didn’t intend to hide it from him. “Done.” Bo Jinchuan’s face darkened when he heard that. “Are you planning to continue hanging on?” Li Tingshen laughed and shook his head. “One last time.” Bo Jinchuan glanced at him and said, “You better be. Don’t trouble others with your own matters.” Li Tingshen looked at him quietly for a few seconds. The latter didn’t say anything else and went after Shen Fanxing. Li Tingshen stood rooted to the ground for a long time. Xiao Chu was confused. Although he knew that CEO Li and CEO Bo had a good relationship, they had never interfered with each other’s matters. Therefore, he wouldn’t know about Old Master Ye’s surgery. He was a little surprised by her sudden mention. Their conversation was brief and concise. But the last sentence, “Don’t trouble others for your own matters”, was really puzzling. “CEO Li…” Looking at Li Tingshen, who stood rooted to the ground, Xiao Chu was a little confused. Was he leaving or not? * When Bo Jinchuan rushed to the emergency room, Shen Fanxing was outside. She couldn’t hide her anxiety. When she saw him, her gaze swept behind him. “He’s gone?” Bo Jinchuan wrapped his arm around her waist and sat down on a chair. “Probably.” Shen Fanxing said sternly, “I’m glad I couldn’t get through to Ye Qingqiu.” Even she felt nervous when she bumped into him, let alone Ye Qingqiu. Moreover, if Ye Qingqiu appeared here, Linlin wouldn’t be able to hide it. “Let nature take its course. She can’t hide it from him forever.” Bo Jinchuan reached out to pat the spot on her arm where Linlin’s shoe had touched. His tone was calm. Shen Fanxing couldn’t refute him. She took a deep breath and leaned against Bo Jinchuan. “Li Tingshen doesn’t look like a fool. Why is he exactly the same as Jinghang?” Bo Jinchuan had nothing to say and could only force out, “It’s different.” Shen Fanxing looked up at him and said, “Also… you have too many illegitimate children outside.” Bo Jinchuan said, “I think so too.” Shen Fanxing couldn’t help but chuckle. Sensing her relaxed body and laughter, Bo Jinchuan smiled. * Outside the hospital, a taxi stopped slowly. Ye Qingqiu opened the car door and paid. She looked up at the entrance of the hospital and her footsteps seemed to have taken root. She didn’t take a step for a long time. Xiao Chu drove out and saw Ye Qingqiu standing not far away, looking at the hospital. “CEO Li, it’s Miss Ye.” Upon hearing this, Li Tingshen, who had a calm expression on his face, slowly looked out of the car. Ye Qingqiu was still standing there. Her tall and slender figure was like a statue. If not for the fact that her right hand was tightly gripping the strap of her bag, she would have let go and suddenly tightened it. Xiao Chu lowered the window a few centimeters to greet her, but Li Tingshen stopped her. “Don’t move.” Xiao Chu was shocked and hurriedly raised the window again. “Drive away.” Li Tingshen instructed in a low voice again. Xiao Chu didn’t understand, but she still obeyed. Ye Qingqiu stood there for another two minutes before she mustered her courage and walked towards the hospital. Li Tingshen’s car was parked not far away. Through the window, he watched as Ye Qingqiu walked into the hospital. * From the moment she was released from prison, she had already found out which hospital and ward Grandpa was staying in. From the news she received from the hospital, Grandpa’s health was very stable. That was why she had allowed herself to be unfilial. Until now, she had been hesitating if she should visit him. Old Master Ye had been staying in a high-end sterile ward with a high-end nurse by his side. She stood outside the ward and saw an old man with white hair lying quietly on the bed in the middle of the ward. Beside the bed were some medical equipment. The tubes landed on the old man’s body. As she was too far away, she couldn’t see his face clearly. However, his thin face made her eyes turn red. The hand on the handle was so tight that it turned white. Guilt and guilt enveloped her, making it difficult for her to breathe. Seeing that face, she remembered more clearly how much they loved her back then. But at that time, because she had lost her father, because she had lost Brother Ye Ze, because she wanted to hurt Li Tingshen, and because of her emotions, she chose to abandon her grandfather. Three years… Was Grandpa disappointed in her? Was he angry and desperate? Grandpa had lost his son, the assistant whom he had nurtured and trusted for many years. In the end, he was mercilessly abandoned by his granddaughter whom he had doted on for so many years. Ye Qingqiu felt as though her heart was being squeezed by an iron claw and bitten by countless insects. Ye Qingqiu… Compared to Grandpa, your self-righteous pain was nothing. What were you thinking? You lost the person you loved the most and hurt the other person you loved the most. She covered her eyes with her hands as tears streamed down her face. Wrong, wrong again. She had always made the wrong choice. Ye Qingqiu, you should hate yourself the most. “May I ask who you are…” A doubtful voice sounded beside her. Ye Qingqiu paused and wiped her tears before turning her head. It was a young nurse. Seeing that her eyes were red and there were tears on her eyelashes, the nurse paused. “You’re here to see Old Master Ye, right?” Ye Qingqiu nodded. She could tell that the nurse knew her grandfather, so she asked, “Is he alright?” The nurse nodded. There was a hint of immaturity on her young face as she said, “Her condition is still alright. If nothing goes wrong, the surgery tomorrow should go smoothly. After all, it’s been three years and the doctors are all very experienced.” 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶 Ye Qingqiu was stunned. “Tomorrow… the surgery?” “Yes, every Mid-Autumn Festival is the day Old Master Ye undergoes surgery.” “What surgery?” Ye Qingqiu was confused. “To put it simply, it’s a blood exchange surgery. The old man is old and his organs are gradually failing. Old Master Ye has severe hematopoietic failure. Every Mid-Autumn Festival surgery requires the removal of the rubbish blood in his body and injecting new blood. It’s a very risky surgery…” ‘High risk?’ Ye Qingqiu’s eyes flickered and the blood on her face seemed to have been sucked dry. She leaned against the door and stared at her in a daze. There were too many things intertwining in her mind and she couldn’t make sense of them. After a long while, she said slowly, “…Then where did the blood from tomorrow’s surgery come from?” “Oh, direct blood flow. In other words, another person with the same bone marrow and blood type will undergo surgery together and transfer the blood directly to the patient.” Ye Qingqiu’s head buzzed and the doorknob was almost deformed by her grip. “Then… who is the blood source?” “Old Master Ye’s granddaughter…” Grandpa’s granddaughter… If it wasn’t her, then it must be Liang Xuer. * Outside Liang Xuer’s ward, Ye Qingqiu was stopped by four bodyguards. “No visitors are allowed here.” Ye Qingqiu frowned. “Isn’t Liang Xuer inside?” The bodyguards’ expressions did not change. “Visitors are not allowed here.” Liang Xuer paused when she heard Ye Qingqiu’s voice. After a moment of silence, she suddenly stood up and walked towards the door. “Miss Liang!” The assistant and two nurses hurried forward to stop her. “You can’t go out.” Liang Xuer stood at the door and looked at them coldly. “Do you think I can get out?” Seeing their hesitation, she said, “Someone is looking for me outside. I just have to open the door. Can the four bodyguards outside not control me?” Actually, the two nurses and the assistant didn’t know much about her. After the conversation with Mr Li, as women, they naturally sympathized with Liang Xuer. After considering Liang Xuer’s words, they looked at each other. While they were hesitating, Liang Xuer had already opened the door. Ye Qingqiu was confronting a few bodyguards when the door opened unexpectedly. She turned around and saw Liang Xuer, whom she had not seen for a long time. The four bodyguards instantly turned around and blocked the door. Liang Xuer sneered and looked sarcastically at Ye Qingqiu, who was frowning. “Do you find it ironic?” Before Ye Qingqiu could speak, Liang Xuer’s voice sounded. Her gaze swept across the three people behind Liang Xuer. She was indeed puzzled by the scene before her. But she felt that Liang Xuer would give her an answer. When she retracted her gaze, she saw the bandage on Liang Xuer’s wrist. She frowned again and a cold glint flashed across her eyes. “I came to see you to ask about your grandfather’s situation. Thank you for everything that happened between us…” “Ha…” Liang Xuer suddenly sneered. “Isn’t Li Tingshen the clearest? You’re here to ask me? You’re actually here to laugh at me, right?” Ye Qingqiu pursed her lips and looked at her coldly. She didn’t speak, as if waiting for the person in front of her to speak. “Three years, I was deceived by Li Tingshen for three whole years…” At the mention of Li Tingshen, Liang Xuer couldn’t hide the sadness in her heart. She clenched her fists tightly and her exquisite nails dug into her palms, but she didn’t feel any pain. “Aren’t you smug? You hurt him in such a cruel way, but he still didn’t give up on you… for three years!” Liang Xuer suddenly raised her voice. “In order to make you hate him less, he turned himself into a despicable liar!” Ye Qingqiu’s hand trembled slightly as her gaze landed on Liang Xuer’s injured wrist. “So you didn’t save Grandpa willingly.” Grandpa’s surgery was tomorrow. One could imagine how important her blood was. If she really wanted to save Grandpa, how could she let herself waste another drop of blood? Liang Xuer sneered as her gaze swept across the nurses, assistants and bodyguards. “Do you think so?” Ye Qingqiu seemed to have understood something. “Liang Xuer, he’s your grandfather too.” Liang Xuer smiled and touched her forehead. “So annoying, so annoying… So annoying!” Ye Qingqiu’s face had already turned completely cold. The gratitude she had for her and the hatred she had for her had completely disappeared. “Did you guys discuss this beforehand? If he says the same thing, you have to say it again! I’m selfish. I’m an ingrate. If it were you, you would be willing to donate blood to save Grandpa. If it were me, I would have to make him choose to be a liar and deceive me before I agreed to save him.” “The two of you are truly in love. How passionate and story-telling is your love? Someone who should have died a long time ago actually let me be a blood bank for three years just to not make you sad. Everyone thought that he was my love, but they didn’t know that I was actually the sacrifice of your love! My existence is to fulfill your love. How ridiculous, how ridiculous…” Liang Xuer’s tears fell again. She thought that she could finally get rid of the humiliation she had suffered three years ago. She had obtained the man she loved deeply back then. She could finally slap her face and laugh at her. In the end, she was the one who was ridiculous. It was even more ridiculous than three years ago. The unwillingness in her heart surged. When she saw Ye Qingqiu’s beautiful face without any expression, she felt even more indignant. There was a shadow of her on her face. Even her clothes, words, and actions were being analyzed by her. Since Li Tingshen liked her, she would become the person he loved. Still no. None of them could. She was unrecognizable from head to toe, and she was not the person he loved. It was only her, the woman in front of her who made her jealous. Even if she was indeed ridiculous now. But she didn’t want her to be smug at all. Liang Xuer racked her brains to hurt Ye Qingqiu. Only when Ye Qingqiu was in pain did she feel balanced. “Don’t be too smug, Ye Qingqiu. It’s not like three years ago. So what if you’re smug? You’ve lost everything…” Ye Qingqiu’s face turned pale as a bone-deep pain spread uncontrollably. Even though her expression didn’t change much, Liang Xuer still caught it. She was happy. “Do you know why Qin Hao chose to steal the Li Corporation’s program back then?” Ye Qingqiu paused and looked up abruptly. “What do you mean?” When she went to Old Master Ye’s ward, she didn’t see Li Tingshen and Yu Song, who had followed her here. Just as she stepped out of the elevator, she suddenly heard Liang Xuer’s crazy voice and stopped in her tracks. “Because when I registered my personal studio at the Industry and Commerce Bureau, I heard that he planned to change the legal representative of the Li Corporation to you.” Ye Qingqiu froze. “At that time, Li Tingshen was taking loans from various banks and putting the entire company on the same track. What was he waiting for? How could a conceited person like him allow failure? It’s easy to understand that he wanted to give the Li Corporation to you in the best state.” Ye Qingqiu was stunned for a long time before she shook her head. Rather than saying that she didn’t believe it, it was more like she didn’t want to accept this fact. “Qin Hao hates him so much. Li Tingshen is so ambitious and eager to succeed. Isn’t his weakness obvious? As long as I pretend in front of him and shed two tears, his plan to take revenge on Li Tingshen will be put on the agenda…” Xiao Chu was shocked when she heard that. It turned out that Miss Liang was behind the accident back then. He looked up at the man standing in front of him with his back facing him. His tall and slender figure did not seem to sway at all. He was as stable as a pine tree. With such a calm appearance, he thought that the expression on his face should be as calm as a distant mountain. But how could she remain indifferent to such a terrifying fact? However, he really didn’t see Li Tingshen doing anything. Ye Qingqiu trembled all over. “…You know that he’s putting everything on the line. You know that he’s conceited and won’t accept his failure. Do you like him that much?” “He did it for you!” Even the expressionless bodyguards were shocked by Liang Xuer’s words. They naturally knew what had happened to the Li Corporation three years ago. She didn’t expect it to be related to this woman. “Is that why you’re so angry? And, and…” Looking at Ye Qingqiu’s suppressed anger, Liang Xuer laughed and cried. “Auntie Lian has a mental illness. I sensed it in the past, but I wasn’t sure. I knew that your father had a heart attack at the Li Corporation that day. Her erratic behavior confirmed it… That day in my ward, you said… If I didn’t mention that your father didn’t have much time left, would Auntie Lian have such an extreme reaction? I only wanted her to kill you back then! But she stabbed herself in the heart. Do you know the look in Auntie Lian’s eyes when she called my name? She asked me to sue you and accuse you of being a murderer who killed Li Tingshen’s biological mother…” Liang Xuer stared intently at Ye Qingqiu’s beautiful face, which gradually turned sinister and twisted. She laughed loudly and cruelly. “She said that even if she died, Li Ting would hate you forever… Later on, she really died, but she took your father away…” “Hehe… Although the outcome is different… It’s either he hates you or you hate him. How can the two of you be together?” Ye Qingqiu had never thought that one day, she would be angered by Liang Xuer until she wanted to kill someone. Liang Xuer looked at her angry and pale face and smiled like a lunatic. “But he still refuses to give up on you. Say… is he crazy? He disobeyed his mother time and time again because of you. I even heard that you killed his mother with your own hands, but he refused to give up on you… Is he a pervert?” The thread in Ye Qingqiu’s mind suddenly cracked. She suddenly went forward and pushed the shocked bodyguard aside. She went forward and grabbed Liang Xuer’s long hair, knocking her against the wall. “So, from the beginning to the end, you’re the one behind everything. If it weren’t for you, the Li Corporation wouldn’t have been gone, Daddy wouldn’t have died, Brother Ye Ze wouldn’t have died, and even Lili wouldn’t have died. Grandpa wouldn’t have become like this! All of this is because of you?!” Liang Xuer’s head was slammed against the wall and she felt dizzy. However, looking at Ye Qingqiu’s twisted expression, she curled her lips and said, “And you were jailed for three years…” “Slap—” Ye Qingqiu’s palm landed ruthlessly on Liang Xuer’s face. Her hand tugged at her hair and she looked as though she wanted to peel off Liang Xuer’s scalp. “Are you even human? You’re simply a beast! Liang Xuer! The Ye family doesn’t owe you anything. Even if you feel that they do, think about your dead parents! How can you face them when you’ve done all these?! Your father’s surname is Ye. My father is his biological brother and Grandpa is his biological father! It’s fine if you’re too ashamed to see them, but what about your father? Where’s your conscience? Where’s your humanity?!” Liang Xuer’s body stiffened. Ye Qingqiu was so angry that her eyes turned red. She shook Liang Xuer’s head violently and slammed it against the wall behind her. Liang Xuer was dizzy from the impact. Until a hand suddenly grabbed Ye Qingqiu’s hand. Turning his head, Li Tingshen took her hand away calmly. “Let go!” “Enough.” Li Tingshen said calmly as he tightened his grip on Ye Qingqiu’s wrist. Ye Qingqiu’s eyes reddened as she looked up at him. “Enough?” She was going to cry. Li Tingshen pursed his lips tightly and his throat moved, but he still insisted on pulling her away. Ye Qingqiu was stubborn and Li Tingshen narrowed his eyes. “Xiao Chu, take her away.” [Three in one. I fell asleep last night. There’s more tonight. I’ll sleep for a while ~]
