Ch. 181..190
Chapter 181: Chapter 181-Caught in an Affair Ye Qingwan ignored the pain in her heart and looked into Gu Shimo’s deep eyes.
A moment later.
She nodded.” Alright.”
Now, she could not lie to herself that she had no feelings for the man in front of her.
He was once her family.
Now, he was also her family.
However, other than family, there were other feelings that invaded silently.
A relieved smile flashed across Gu Shimo’s eyes. He leaned over and kissed her small mouth again.
This time, compared to the gentleness from before, there was a hint of affection and affection.
He kissed her patiently.
He wasn’t aggressive, but Ye Qingwan couldn’t help but respond to his kiss.
In the end, he picked her up and placed her on the bed…
The room allocation from last night was made up for this morning.
Ye Qingwan listened to him calling her name over and over again, and the emotions in her heart slowly dissipated.
—-
City A.
Ever since Leng Xiaoduan lost weight successfully, he had the habit of waking up early.
Even if she didn’t have to work on Sunday, she would still wake up early and make breakfast for herself.
It was even more impossible for him to sleep until he was on duty three times a day when he was on a business trip.
Leng Xiaoduan got up and washed up. He was about to go to the dining room downstairs for breakfast. As soon as he opened the door, he happened to see Gu Ziyang coming out of the room diagonally opposite.
They met on the plane last night and stayed in the same hotel.
Leng Xiaoduan only hesitated for a second before greeting him generously,” Good morning.””
“Morning.”
Gu Ziyang’s expression froze.
Leng Xiaoduan didn’t express the doubts in his heart. He closed the door and started walking.
The door of the room next to Gu Ziyang’s opened at this moment.
A woman’s voice sounded.” What kind of villa do you want?”
“I don’t care. Just pick what you like.”
The man hugged the woman’s waist and came out of the room.
When Leng Xiaoduan saw the woman who came out of the room, his eyes widened in shock as he looked at Gu Ziyang who was standing in the corridor.
“Zi Yang…You, why are you here?”
The scene changed.
Zhao Qinlan’s face turned pale.
She shook off Mu Yuan’s hand that was around her waist in a panic and rushed forward to pull Gu Ziyang’s hand from Han Ruxiang.
Before her hand could touch Gu Ziyang, he flung her away angrily.
“Don’t touch me.”
“Ziyang, let Mommy explain.”
Zhao Qinlan panicked and tried to pull him back again.
Gu Ziyang immediately took two steps back. A hint of disgust flashed across his moist eyes. He gritted his teeth and asked,” What do you want to explain? Explain why you ignored the news of my father’s death in a car accident. Ruthless wasn’t even willing to send him on his last journey, but you’re doing such a disgusting thing with a bodyguard here?”
“..”
Zhao Qinlan was stunned.
Her eyes widened as she stared at Gu Ziyang.
She stiffened and only asked mechanically after a long while,” Ziyang, what did you say?”
“Don’t tell me you don’t know that my father is dead. You’re living in the internet age, not ancient times.”
Gu Ziyang raised his voice.
Even though he had already seen her and Mu Yuan’s photo before he came.
However, he still held onto a trace of hope.
She wondered if the photo was photoshopped.
Now, he saw them hugging each other and coming out of the same room.
Even if he could deceive himself, he could not deceive himself.
The last trace of blood on Zhao Qinlan’s face receded, and her body swayed.
Suddenly, she pounced on Gu Ziyang and grabbed his hand. This time, she was not sure if it was because she was too fast or because she was too strong, or if Gu Ziyang was too slow to react because of his grief.
He couldn’t avoid it and was grabbed by her arm.
“Ziyang, what you said isn’t true, right? Didn’t you say that your father was only injured in a car accident? How did he die? How can he die?”
“..”
Gu Ziyang pursed his lips tightly and cried silently.
Zhao Qinlan shook his body and didn’t answer.
Zhao Qinlan shook her head and waited for a few minutes.
He suddenly turned around and looked at Mu Yuan who was standing at the door.
Chapter 182: Chapter 182-Sentimental Feelings Mu Yuan had a calm expression.
Facing Zhao Qinlan’s angry questioning gaze, his expression did not change.
He was very calm.
After he had sex with Zhao Qinlan, he no longer looked at her with the humble gaze he had when he was a bodyguard, and his attitude towards her was no longer respectful.
Now, he was treating her as his woman.
He heard Zhao Qinlan ask,” Mu Yuan, did you already know?”
He shrugged and went forward to hug her shoulders. Before he could touch Zhao Qinlan, Gu Ziyang’s fist came at him.
Mu Yuan didn’t dodge and took a punch.
He steadied himself after taking two steps back due to inertia. He looked calmly at Gu Ziyang, who was like an angry leopard.
She said neither obsequiously nor arrogantly,”Young Master Ziyang, your mother and I love each other. Your father has neglected her for so many years. She has the right to find her own happiness. I’m not hitting you, but you’re hitting me, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, mom, I’m hitting you, dad, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, I’m hitting you, you, mom, I’m hitting you, I’ I’m hitting you”
Zhao Qinlan looked at him in shock.
She couldn’t believe that a bodyguard like him would dare to speak to her son like that.
However, Mu Yuan’s words pierced her heart.
For a moment, Zhao Qin was wavering between the dead Colonel Gu and Mu Yuan, who had been hanging out with each other for the past few days.
“With just you, a toad lusting after swan meat?”
Gu Ziyang sneered in disdain.
What kind of bullsh * t love was this? If Mu Yuan was really his mother’s love, would he not let her go back and send her lover off?
Mu Yuan met Gu Ziyang’s gaze without feeling angry or inferior.
He knew that this was the most crucial moment.
Even though he was panicking, he had to hide it.
He stepped forward again and stood in front of Zhao Qinlan. Although he didn’t reach out to pull her, his intention was obvious.
“Young Master Ziyang, you can humiliate me and scold me, but it doesn’t affect my love for Qinlan. I know what she needs. She doesn’t need the title of Mrs. Gu, nor does she need you to not come home for a few years and ignore her loneliness with your father.”
“Alright, then don’t hide. I want to see how much you love my mother.”
Gu Ziyang grabbed his collar angrily and punched Mu Yuan like rain.
As the young master of the Gu family.
Although he was gentle like jade, he had also practiced.
Mu Yuan grunted and gritted his teeth, not dodging or retaliating.
Instead, Zhao Qinlan panicked.
Her heart ached as she pulled Gu Ziyang back.
Unable to hold her back, she fell onto Mu Yuan.
Gu Ziyang retracted his fist.
“Mom, do you really believe his words?”
Gu Ziyang asked in disbelief.
Zhao Qinlan helped Mu Yuan up. She looked at his bruised face and thought about how Gu Xiaoquan was already dead.
All these years, she had gone from loving and not wanting to get ahold of him to only hating him.
She gritted her teeth and nodded.” Ziyang, I believe Mu Yuan. Although he’s not as outstanding as your father, he’s good to me.”
Gu Ziyang was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
He looked at Zhao Qinlan and Mu Yuan in front of him, and his heart suddenly died.
He also seemed to understand why his brother didn’t send her back when he knew that Zhao Qinlan was with the bodyguards.
He even allowed her to do whatever she wanted.
This trip of his was simply for nothing.
Gu Ziyang smiled coldly and nodded.” Alright, you believe that he’s good to you. I’ll let you see clearly if he’s really good to you.””
He turned around to leave.
Zhao Qinlan pounced on him and pulled him back.” Ziyang, what are you doing?”
“I’ll do what I have to do.”
Gu Ziyang pried Zhao Qinlan’s hand away and swept his cold gaze across Mu Yuan.
She said coldly,” When you were with this man, my father wasn’t dead yet. You cheated on him. I will let you have your fill.”
“Young Master Ziyang.”
Mu Yuan’s expression changed drastically when he heard the words ” love is satisfied “.
Chapter 183: He Doesn’t Care About Me Gu Ziyang looked at Mu Yuan with disdain.” You’re anxious after hearing that you don’t have money?”
“I’m not in a hurry.”
Mu Yuan gritted his teeth and said in a manly tone,” I want to tell Young Master Ziyang that if you think that you can separate us by stopping your mother’s card and letting her suffer, then you’re thinking too lightly of our relationship.”
“Is that so?”
Gu Ziyang saw the anger in Mu Yuan’s eyes and sneered.
However, Zhao Qinlan was really bewitched by Mu Yuan in the past few days.
She looked at Mu Yuan’s words and felt touched.
Mu Yuan’s strategy was not in vain. He saw Zhao Qinlan looking up at him.
He knew that she had been moved by him.
He took advantage of the heat and said,” Although I’m not as rich as your father, I can treat your mother well with all my heart. Even if I can’t give her a luxurious life, I can give her freedom and a carefree life.”
At this point, he took out his wallet from his pocket and put a card into Zhao Qinlan’s hand.
She said affectionately and gently,” Qinlan, this is all my savings. You’ll take care of it in the future. Also, if you’re willing, we can immediately register our marriage and get married.”
“In your dreams.”
Gu Ziyang snatched the card from Zhao Qinlan’s hand and threw it out.
The card was thrown not far away from Leng Xiaoduan.
Leng Xiaoduan, who had been watching the show for a long time, suddenly came back to his senses.
She looked down at the bank card on the ground and walked away quickly.
Gu Ziyang no longer cared about his face.
She couldn’t care less about her family’s dirty laundry.
He only wanted to tear Mu Yuan, who had seduced his mother, into pieces.
“Ziyang, how could you be so rude as to throw your Uncle Mu’s card?”
“Uncle Mu?”
Gu Ziyang was so angry that he wanted to kill someone. His eyes were red as he stared at Zhao Qinlan.” Mom, it seems that you really don’t want my brother and me for a man, right?”
He was just trying to scare Mu Yuan.
Unexpectedly, Mu Yuan really panicked.
He was certain that Mu Yuan was anxious.
But his mother was stubborn.
Zhao Qinlan frowned and her expression changed a few times.” Of course not. You are the most important person to me. Why would I not want you?” Ziyang, your brother might be different from what you think. He doesn’t care about me as much as you do.”
“If he doesn’t care about you, why would he ask me to look for you?”
“He told you to come and find me?”
Zhao Qinlan sneered.” Look, he doesn’t even come to me himself. He doesn’t even have me as his mother in his eyes. Ziyang, don’t be fooled by his words.””
“Mom, are you coming back with me?”
Gu Ziyang did not want to discuss his brother’s matter here.
His purpose for coming here.
It was to bring Zhao Qinlan back to South City.
He didn’t want her to hang out with Mu Yuan.
Zhao Qinlan raised her head and glanced at Mu Yuan. She shook her head and said,” Ziyang, since I’m already out, there’s no need to rush back.””
“Don’t you have any feelings for my dad?”
“Long ago, when he didn’t care about us and only thought about his first love, he would rather keep countless mistresses outside than go home. My feelings for him gradually died.”
Zhao Qinlan was very willing to go out.” Your Uncle Mu and I still have a few more days to play in A City. Ziyang, your father is already dead. Do you want your mother to continue being a widow for him and not be able to find her own happiness?”
“But this is not happiness.”
“Love is like drinking water. Just like how you’ve always liked Ye Qingwan. Mom was too strict with you in the past, but now I understand. If you still like Ye Qingwan, go after her.”
“..”
Gu Ziyang felt that his worldview had been challenged.
Zhao Qinlan was still saying,” You can go back. We’ll go back in a few days to register our marriage.”
She walked a few steps away and picked up the bank card that Gu Ziyang had thrown out.
She said to Gu Ziyang,” If you want to stop my card, then stop it. Your Uncle Mu will support me.””
Chapter 184: Chapter 184-Freezing of accounts Gu Ziyang clenched his fists. His eyes were red as he watched Mu Yuan and Zhao Qinlan walk into the elevator together.
Downstairs.
He took a few deep breaths.
He calmed himself down.
She immediately dialed Gu Shimo’s number.
At the same time.
As soon as they came out of the elevator, Mu Yuan gave Zhao Qinlan an idea.” Qinlan, Ziyang has never had any power. He will definitely call Gu Shimo and ask him to cut off your finances. However, it will take time for him to freeze your card. It’s not too late for you to transfer the money from the card now.”
“Now?”
Zhao Qinlan was enlightened.” Yes, I’ll transfer it to your card now.””
The two of them stood in the hotel lobby.
She immediately took out her mobile phone and started to use her mobile banking.
He transferred the money from the card to Mu Yuan’s card.
Once Mu Yuan mentioned Gu Shimo, Zhao Qinlan would not leave any money in Gu Shimo’s card.
He had taken advantage of her.
“It’s the upper limit.”
After Zhao Qinlan transferred two sums of money.
He looked at Mu Yuan anxiously.
Just now, Mu Yuan was only focused on counting how many zeros there were.
He was stunned when he heard her words.” Call the bank.”
“No, if I don’t handle the phone call, they’ll think that I’ve been scammed.”
Zhao Qinlan pursed her lips and said,” I’ll transfer this much first. Ziyang might just say it and won’t really let Gu Shimo freeze my card. He has always felt sorry for me, unlike that ingrate Gu Shimo.”
—-
South City.
In the dining room of the Ye family villa.
Ye Qingwan finished her breakfast first and said,” Uncle, Mom, take your time.””
He slid down the chair and ran out of the dining room to look for Gu Feng.
At the dining table, Gu Shimo’s phone suddenly rang. He lowered his gaze to take a look.
He put down his chopsticks and picked up his phone.
He picked up the call with his long fingers and said in a low voice,”Hello.”
Gu Ziyang’s voice came through the phone.” Brother.”
She could hear the strangeness in Gu Ziyang’s tone.
Gu Shimo’s long and narrow eyes narrowed coldly.” Have you found her?”
“Found it.”
Gu Shimo’s voice was choked up.
Although he was a man in his twenties, he had never experienced anything in his life.
The biggest blow was Ye Qingwan’s disappearance five years ago.
He went to another country.
Now that his father had just died, his mother had cheated on him.
She even tried her best to protect a liar. Even he didn’t believe her.
Gu Shimo could not take such a blow.
“Not with you?”
It was too quiet on the other end of the phone. Gu Shimo could tell that it was Gu Ziyang alone.
If Zhao Qinlan and Mu Yuan were here, there would definitely be noise.
Gu Ziyang replied with a ” hmm ” on the other end of the phone.
He took another deep breath.
She said stiffly,” She didn’t want to go back with me. She even said that she wanted to get married to that bastard Mu Yuan. Brother, I can’t convince her or take her away.”
Gu Ziyang regretted coming to her alone.
He should have brought a few bodyguards with him.
“Where are you now?”
Gu Shimo frowned.
His long body leaned back against the chair.” She left with Mu Yuan?”
“Yes, they’ve left. I’m still in the hotel. Brother, can you arrange for someone to bring her back?”
“You can’t bring her back to your heart. Since she already told you that she wants to register her marriage with Mu Yuan, the more you do, the faster it will be for them to register their marriage.”
“Then can you freeze her card? It’s obvious that Mu Yuan is after money. It’s impossible for him to really like Mom. If you freeze her card, Mu Yuan won’t be able to gain anything. Let’s see how long they can stay together.”
“Sure, but have you told them this before?”
Gu Shimo and Gu Ziyang grew up together.
She knew his personality too well.
Gu Ziyang was asked.
Realizing something, his voice became softer.” I did. Mu Yuan also said that he would take care of Mom.”
“Nurture?”
Gu Shimo repeated those two words and said calmly,” If Mu Yuan is after her money, he should have transferred a sum of money by now.”
Chapter 185: So Reluctant “Is he that fast?”
Gu Ziyang was extremely annoyed.
“Okay, I’ll call and ask. Since you can’t bring her back, then come back.”
“Call and freeze her card first to see if they have transferred the funds. I’ll wait here for another day.”
He was unwilling to go back like this.
Gu Shimo did not try to persuade her.
He only said,”Call me if you need anything.””
He hung up the phone and saw Ye Qingwan looking at him.
Gu Shimo said calmly,” Zhao Qinlan doesn’t want to come back with Ziyang. She wants to marry Mu Yuan.”
“Marry Mu Yuan?”
“Have they been together for a long time?”
“I don’t think so. Mu Yuan has been at the Zhao family’s residence all this time. He only came to the Gu residence a few days ago.”
A trace of coldness flashed across Gu Shimo’s eyes.” Zhao Qinlan has been lonely for too long. For someone like her, it’s not difficult for Mu Yuan to lie to her.”
“..”
“Ziyang asked me to freeze her card.”
“Then do you freeze it?”
“Yes, I am. Not only did I freeze her card, but I also planned to expose the photo of her and Mu Yuan together. She was a woman who had cheated in her marriage. Even if she was with Mu Yuan, she could forget about getting the Mo Family’s assets.”
—-
Just as Gu Shimo had guessed.
When he called the bank, they told him that Zhao Qinlan had transferred two funds ten minutes ago.
Gu Shimo stopped all her cards.
As for the money that was transferred, he did not get it back.
Instead, he called the Left Executive and asked him to pass down his orders.
He got people to keep an eye on Mu Yuan and Zhao Qinlan.
—-
After breakfast.
Gu Shimo and Ye Qingwan sent Ye Zixi to school before heading to Yuncheng Hotel.
On the way to school, Ye Qingwan received a message from Leng Xiaoduan,[Sister Qingwan, I just ate a big melon.]]
[What big melon?]
Ye Qingwan asked in amusement.
Leng Xiaoduan replied instantly,[I met Zhao Qinlan, Gu Ziyang, and Zhao Qinlan’s wild man…]
He recounted what he had just seen and heard.
The text that Leng Xiaoduan sent took up the entire page of the phone.
Ye Qingwan didn’t expect Leng Xiaoduan to stay in the same hotel as Zhao Qinlan and the others.
After reading Leng Xiaoduan’s description.
Ye Qingwan pitied Gu Ziyang.
But that was all.
When they arrived at school, Zixi kissed Ye Qingwan on the cheek and waved at Gu Shimo. She got out of the car and ran into the school like the wind.
A few meters away, Jiang Luan brought Jiang Mianmian out to pick up the children.
When Jiang Mianmian saw Ye Zixi, she immediately ran over and greeted Ye Zixi with a smile.
Then, Jiang Luan led them into the teaching building.
Ye Qingwan took a photo of Ye Zixi’s back.
He posted it on his WeChat Moments.
[I’ve grown up, baby. Will you only give your mother a back view that will go further and further away in the future?]
After sending it, he looked at the paragraph and couldn’t help but feel emotional.
Zixi was born weak. In the blink of an eye, she was already four years old and had grown into a sensible little adult.
Her heart softened like a lake.
A Like notification appeared on the page.
It was Gu Shimo’s profile picture.
She clicked on the profile picture and exited. She turned to look and saw his gentle gaze waiting for her.
“Zixi has grown up. You won’t have to work so hard in the future.”
The man’s hand wrapped around her slender waist and pulled her into his embrace.
Ye Qingwan said lightly,” I feel quite conflicted. Sometimes, I hope Zixi will grow up quickly and have time, but I also hope that he will grow up a little slower.” This way, I can accompany him for a little longer.”
“Are you that reluctant?”
“Yes.”
“Then, did Zixi cry on her first day of school?”
He was clearly his own son, but as a father, he knew nothing about it.
When Gu Shimo said this, there was an unconcealable guilt in his tone.
This was an irreparable regret.
Chapter 186: Continue Investigating Ye Qingwan shook her head.” No, he’s very obedient. It’s his first day in kindergarten. He’s the youngest child in the class, but he’s still helping the teacher coax the other crying children.”
At the mention of Zixi, Ye Qingwan’s eyes were filled with a gentle motherly love..
She was originally a weak woman, but she could become stronger than ever for the sake of her child.
This might be a true reflection of every mother.
She could talk for days and nights, but she could not finish talking about Zixi’s childhood.” Later, the teacher told me, and I found out that from then on, he became the teacher’s assistant…”
Gu Shimo asked a few more questions.
It was all about Ye Zixi’s childhood.
Ye Qingwan explained in detail.
Gu Feng, who was driving, considerately slowed down. He was afraid that if they reached the Yuncheng Hotel too quickly, their conversation would end for no reason.
“Where is that Yang Feng from?”
Gu Shimo asked casually when Ye Qingwan mentioned Yang Feng.
His eyes locked onto Ye Qingwan’s delicate eyebrows. He wanted to know every minute and every second of her five years.
Ye Qingwan said,” He’s from the capital. He was exiled by his family.”
“Then, did he come to South City this time especially to look for you?”
Gu Shimo was a little jealous.
Most of all, he blamed himself for not protecting her well back then.
Ye Qingwan shook her head.” No.”
—-
Under Gu Feng’s tortoise speed.
9:40 AM.
Ye Qingwan and Gu Shimo finally arrived at Yuncheng Hotel.
As soon as they entered the hall, the manager surnamed Chen who had welcomed them yesterday welcomed them warmly.” President Gu, Miss Ye.”
A few minutes later.
Gu Shimo and Ye Wanqing sat in the VIP room.
Manager Chen stood at the side and asked respectfully,” President Gu, what can I do for you?”
“Who opened the safe yesterday?”
Although Gu Shimo was sitting, Manager Chen was standing.
However, the powerful cold air field emitted from his body still made the other party so restrained that he did not know where to put his hands and feet.
“Before?”
Manager Chen’s eyes flickered as if he was thinking.” No one has been here before. Chairman Gu hasn’t been here for several years.”
“Are you sure no one else has been here except him, or do you not know?”
“No one has been here.”
Manager Chen was very certain this time.
“I’ve been working here for thirty years. Chairman Gu had only come twice after he had stored it.”
“How long do you keep the surveillance cameras?”
“Surveillance cameras? President Gu, do you want to check all the surveillance cameras over the years? No, the surveillance footage couldn’t have been kept for that long.”
“Looks like I can only look for Chairman Ji.”
The threat in Gu Shimo’s words was obvious.
Manager Chen’s expression changed, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.” President Gu, of course it’s a good thing that you’re looking for our chairman, but what I said today is the truth. President Gu, please explain the reason to our chairman when the time comes…”
What he meant was, don’t blame him.
Gu Shimo stared at Manager Chen for a moment with a stern and stern gaze.
The other party lowered his head and did not meet his gaze.
For a moment, he was not sure if the other party was lying.
Gu Shimo pulled Ye Qingwan up.
He then added,” If Manager Chen remembers who opened the safe, please contact me immediately. This matter is of great importance. If I find out that you’re lying, you might not be able to retire.”
Manager Chen lowered his head and did not dare to raise it.
She nodded repeatedly.” President Gu, what I said just now is true.”
Gu Shimo did not stay any longer. He held Ye Qingwan’s hand and left Yuncheng Hotel.
Seeing his gloomy face, Ye Qingwan thought of Manager Chen’s words and expression. She pursed her lips and asked softly,” Brother, what do you plan to do next?””
“Continue investigating.”
When Gu Shimo spoke to her, his tone softened.
He tried his best not to bring his emotions to her.
Chapter 187: This Is Kidney Tonifying Medicine “According to what Chen Linhai said just now, he has been working here for 30 years and has always been in charge.”
After getting into the car, Ye Qingwan’s cold voice echoed in the car,” Then he should be the one who knows the situation the best, but his attitude just now was firm. Even if he lied, he wouldn’t change his mind so easily.””
“Then don’t let him change his mind.”
Gu Shimo’s eyes turned cold.
Since Chen Linhai was the one who broke through.
Then he would definitely make him tell the truth.
“Master, where are we going now?”
Gu Feng asked weakly.
“Go to the hospital.”
“Why are you going to the hospital?”
Ye Qingwan looked at him in confusion.
Gu Shimo’s large palm caressed her hair. Ye Qingwan felt as if he was stroking a pet’s fur.
His deep voice fell into her ear.” Didn’t I say before that I wanted to help you recuperate? I should have gone to the United States long ago.”
“There’s no rush. After you’re done, we’ll go again after a while.”
“Are you that afraid of drinking Chinese medicine?”
Gu Shimo saw through her motive.
He exposed her without any hesitation.
Ye Qingwan raised her eyebrows.” Is there someone who likes to drink medicine?””
“It’s me.”
“..”
“I’ll drink with you until you recover. Is that okay?”
Gu Shimo spoke in a casual manner, but the sincerity in his tone was unquestionable.
Ye Qingwan was surprised.” You’re not sick. Why are you taking medicine?””
Gu Shimo’s deep eyes reflected her shadow as he looked at her gently.” I’m not sick, but I thought you didn’t want to drink it? I’ll accompany you so that you won’t be the only one suffering.”
“..”
Ye Qingwan felt warmth in her heart.
She looked at his handsome face and gritted her teeth.” Forget it. I don’t need your company.””
“..”
Gu Shimo smiled but did not say anything.
When they arrived at the hospital, Gu Shimo brought Ye Qingwan directly to an old doctor’s office.
After taking his pulse.
The old doctor gave Ye Qingwan a prescription.
Gu Shimo suggested that the old doctor prescribe some medicine for him.
“You’re in good health. Why are you taking medicine?”
The old doctor placed his hand on Gu Shimo’s wrist. After taking his pulse, he refused to prescribe medicine for him.
Gu Shimo felt a little helpless.” I don’t feel like I’ve been sleeping well recently. Can you prescribe some Chinese medicine to help me sleep?”
“No.”
The old doctor was very professional.
Don’t cheat money.
Ye Qingwan tried not to laugh.
He lowered his eyes and looked at his toes.
Gu Shimo’s voice rang in her ears.” I’m really not feeling well.”
“Do you think I’m a quack? I can’t tell if you’re sick or not.”
“..”
Ye Qingwan stood up.” Brother, I need to go to the bathroom.””
He couldn’t listen anymore.
She decided to leave.
After Ye Qingwan left, Gu Shimo continued to make up stories. It seemed that he would not stop until he got the medicine.
“I feel that my kidney is weak. Do you want to take my pulse again?”
“Kidney deficiency?”
The old doctor finished writing the prescription and looked up at Gu Shimo.
Gu Shimo nodded seriously.
The old doctor smiled.” Are you sure you want to drink the kidney medicine? Don’t come to me if anything happens.”
“It’s not to nourish the kidneys. I just want to drink some medicine that doesn’t hurt my body or treat my illness.”
Gu Shimo said,” Wanwan can’t take Chinese medicine. I only agreed to come because I said that I would take the medicine with her. If I don’t do what I promised her, how can she trust me in the future?”
“..”
The old doctor shook his head speechlessly.
Then, she picked up a pen and wrote a prescription for him.
Ye Qingwan came back from the bathroom and saw Gu Shimo standing in the corridor with two prescriptions.
A hint of surprise flashed across her eyes.
“You really opened it?”
“Yes.”
“What disease?”
“Kidney deficiency.”
“..”
Ye Qingwan ignored Gu Shimo and walked in front to press the elevator button.
The elevator door opened, but there was no one inside.
After entering, she looked at Gu Shimo and asked,” So, this medicine of yours is for the kidneys?”
“Yes.”
Gu Shimo leaned over and pressed his thin lips against her ear.” I’ll have to trouble you for the next few days.”
Chapter 188: Chapter 188: No Need to Be Added “Tough?”
Ye Qingwan’s eyes were filled with rejection.
No.
Why did she have to work so hard?
She reached out to grab his prescription but he dodged her.” Wanwan, what do you want?”
“Let me see.”
Ye Qingwan frowned. What a joke.
If this man could nourish her kidneys, she would not be able to live anymore.
These days, she had never done it with him for less than an hour.
She was still making up for it?
Then, would he not sleep at night in the future?
“I’m just teasing you. Look at how scared you are. Don’t you know if I have kidney deficiency or not? Or are you not satisfied enough now and want me to increase the time or the number of times per night?”
“Don’t talk nonsense. I didn’t.”
Ye Qingwan’s face turned red from the warm kiss and the ambiguous hint.
It was not like she only thought about the things between men and women all day long.
Gu Shimo nodded his head, saying that he didn’t need to make up for his mistake, and that he was a doctor. He didn’t need to make up for his mistake. He was just drinking whatever he wanted, and he was just accompanying him.”
“Didn’t I say I’d drink for more than half a year?”
Ye Qingwan was not in a good mood when she thought about the medicine she had to take every day.
Gu Shimo hummed in acknowledgment.
Her eyes were filled with gentleness as she said tenderly,” Don’t be afraid. Once you recuperate, you won’t have to suffer anymore.””
Back home.
Gu Shimo personally went to the kitchen to boil the medicine for her.
Ye Qingwan sat on the sofa with her legs curled up and a pillow in her arms. She opened her WeChat and saw a series of likes and comments.
One of the likes and comments was from Ji Tianheng.
[Is this a teacher? What’s your name?]
[Yes, teacher. Her name is Jiang Luan.]
Ye Qingwan’s impression of Ji Tianheng was that he was cold and aloof.
He was actually interested in a teacher.
She was a little surprised.
However, she thought of the photo she had taken and replied to him.
She clicked on his profile picture and entered the chat interface to greet him.
Ji Tianheng replied,” Hello.”
Ye Qingwan sent a message: ”
” Lawyer Ji, I have a letter here that I found among Gu Xiaoquan’s belongings. I would like to ask you to help me analyze the authenticity of this seal.]
[Alright, when you have time, come to my firm. I’ll take a look for you.]
[Okay.]
In the afternoon.
After Gu Shimo went to the company.
Ye Qingwan asked Gu Feng to drive her to Ji Tianheng’s law firm.
Because she had told him in advance.
As soon as she walked into the office, an assistant came up to her and asked if she was Miss Ye Qingwan.
He led her to Ji Tianheng’s office, pushed the door open, and watched her enter before leaving.
In the office.
Apart from Ji Tianheng, Lu Mingyu was also there.
“Wanwan, I happened to be nearby. I heard from Tianheng that you were coming over, so I came over to take a look.”
Seeing her enter, Lu Mingyu stood up from the sofa and went up to her.
Behind his desk, Ji Tianheng calmly put down the documents and called his assistant to send in a cup of coffee.
Then he got up and walked out.
He said calmly,” Miss Ye, please sit.””
Two minutes later, the assistant brought in a cup of coffee and left.
Lu Mingyu asked concernedly,” Wanwan, Tianheng said you have some evidence. What is it?”
“It’s a letter, but I don’t have the letter with me. I only have the photo I took.”
Ye Qingwan took out her phone and unlocked it.
On the opposite sofa.
Ji Tianheng looked at her lazily as she unlocked the phone.” Lawyer Ji, I’ll send it to you.””
“No need. Just show me your phone.”
As he spoke, the laziness between his brows dissipated, and his tall body leaned forward to reach out to Ye Qingwan.
Ye Qingwan was stunned for a moment and handed over her phone.
While Ji Tianheng was reading the letter, Lu Mingyu asked Ye Qingwan a few more questions out of concern.
Ye Qingwan answered one by one.
He then said,” Wanwan, when are you coming over to my house to play again? My mom has been waiting for you to agree to be her goddaughter every day.”
Chapter 189: Helping Each Other “This letter is very good evidence.”
Ji Tianheng finished reading the letter and returned the phone to Ye Qingwan.
Ye Qingwan’s pupils shrank.
Just as she was about to say something, she heard Ji Tianheng ask,” Isn’t the letter in your hands?”
“I don’t have it.”
“Then who has it?”
Lu Mingyu tilted his head to read the contents of the letter and asked in surprise.
“..”
“Gu Shimo?”
Seeing her expression, Lu Mingyu voiced his guess.
Ye Qingwan nodded.
Pursing her lips, she added,” I’m not sure if this letter is authentic.”
Ye Qingwan looked at Ji Tianheng.” Lawyer Ji, I would like to ask you for a favor.””
“Please speak.”
Ji Tianheng’s expression was calm.
Lu Mingyu smiled and said,” Wanwan, if you need Tianheng’s help, just say it. You don’t have to be polite with him.”
Given their relationship, Ji Tianheng would never refuse.
Ji Tianheng glanced at Lu Mingyu, then turned his gaze back to Ye Qingwan. He spoke again, his voice a little more casual.
“Mingyu is right, there’s no need to be polite.”
“This letter was placed in the safe of Yun Cheng Hotel. Yuncheng Hotel is Lawyer Ji’s property. I would like to ask Lawyer Ji to help me check the authenticity of this letter.”
“Oh?”
Ji Tianheng raised his eyebrows.
The corners of his mouth curled into a playful smile.
“I think I get what you mean. You’re worried that this letter wasn’t placed by the school but someone opened the safe and put it in?”
“Yes, we went to Yuncheng Hotel this morning. The manager said that no one has opened the safe in recent years…”
After listening to her narration, Ji Tianheng pondered for a moment.
She agreed.” Alright, I’ll help you check.”
“Thank you, lawyer.”
“Don’t thank me so quickly. I have something to ask you too.”
Ye Qingwan blinked and saw a rare flash of stiffness on Ji Tianheng’s face.
“What do you want to know, Lawyer Ji?”
“Are you familiar with Jiang Luan?”
“Teacher Jiang?”
Ye Qingwan quickly thought of the relationship between Ji Tianheng and Jiang Luan.
Ji Tianheng nodded.” That’s her.”
“Not really.”
Lu Mingyu was also surprised when he heard Jiang Luan’s name.
However, he just listened quietly and did not interrupt.
Ji Tianheng reached into his pocket to touch the cigarette.
Remembering that Ye Qingwan was here, he reached out his hand from his pocket.
His voice was low and indifferent, and he was asking Miss Ye to ask if she was good or bad? He heard that she was already married. He wondered if she was happy. If possible, I hope Miss Ye can be friends with her because she doesn’t have any friends.”
“Is Lawyer Ji very concerned about Teacher Jiang?”
Ye Qingwan wanted to ask what their relationship was.
However, she felt that it was not good to be too direct.
Ji Tianheng laughed self-mockingly, a hint of emotion flashing across his long and narrow eyes.
He gave an irrelevant answer and promised,” I will help Miss Ye check the authenticity of this letter. Whenever Miss Ye wants to sue, I can provide you with the best legal team.”
Ye Qingwan smiled.” Alright, I agree to Lawyer Ji’s terms.””
Ji Tianheng nodded.
He took out his phone and dialed a number in front of Ye Qingwan.
The phone rang twice and a respectful voice came from the other end.” Hello, Young Master Ji.”
“Come to the law firm and look for me immediately.”
“Yes, Young Master Ji.”
The other party did not even dare to ask anything and agreed.
He hung up the phone.
Ji Tianheng said to Ye Qingwan,” Chen Linhai will be here soon. Miss Ye, do you want to wait and hear his answer, or?”
“Let’s not wait. I still have something to do later, so I’ll have to trouble Lawyer Ji.”
Lu Mingyu also stood up.” Wanwan, I’ll send you off.””
“No need. Gu Feng is waiting for me outside.”
“I’ll send you out.”
Lu Mingyu smiled warmly as he sent her out of the law firm. He watched her walk to the roadside and get into the car.
He turned around and went back to his office.
Chapter 190: Group Blind Date In the office, Ji Tianheng’s slender body leaned against the sofa, his large hand holding his phone.
It was unknown what he was looking at, but his eyes were deep and distant.
Lu Mingyu walked in without even looking up.
“Forget Jiang Luan, why don’t you ask her directly?”
Lu Mingyu walked to the sofa and looked down at his good friend.
Hearing that.
Ji Tianheng scoffed.
He looked up and met his concerned gaze. He smiled again.
However, his smile did not reach his eyes.
“You couldn’t let go of Ye Qingwan, so you didn’t chase after her, right?”
Lu Mingyu choked on his words, and a trace of sadness appeared in his eyes.
She sat back in her seat and said in a low voice,” She’s with Gu Shimo now.”
“She’s married too.”
When Ji Tianheng said this, there was an unconcealable emotion in his tone.
“Truly brothers in distress.”
Lu Mingyu mocked himself.
Ji Tianheng glanced at her.” Then, do you want to go on a blind date together?”
Lu Mingyu quickly shook his head.” I’m not interested. Do it yourself.””
The two of them chatted as they waited for Chen Linhai to come over.
Half an hour later, there was a knock on the door.
Ji Tianheng said,”Come in.”
The door opened and Chen Linhai came in. He walked to the sofa and greeted respectfully,” Young Master Ji, Young Master Lu.””

City A, hotel.
Before Leng Xiaoduan swiped his card and entered the room, he subconsciously glanced across the room.
She wondered if Zhao Qinlan’s lover was still living here.
Thinking of the exciting scene in the morning, she regretted not recording it.
Just as she stepped into the room, she heard the door open behind her.
She turned around and saw Gu Ziyang coming out of the room.
Their gazes met.
Gu Ziyang’s expression changed slightly.
Seeing that he was embarrassed, Leng Xiaoduan did not greet him. He entered the house and was about to close the door when Gu Ziyang’s voice sounded behind him.” Leng Xiaoduan.””
She pursed her lips and turned around.
Gu Ziyang walked around the door.
“What’s the matter?”
Leng Xiaoduan asked.
Gu Ziyang’s face was a little stiff. He was obviously ashamed of what had happened in the morning.
He met her clear eyes and pursed his thin lips slightly. He said stiffly,” Morning. I’m sorry.””
Leng Xiaoduan’s eyes flashed with a trace of confusion. He waved his hand immediately.” I’ve already forgotten.””
“..”
Gu Ziyang was a little surprised by her answer.
After a pause, she said calmly,” Sorry to disturb you.”
Leng Xiaoduan did not say anything and closed the door.
He walked to the sofa and sat down. He opened his laptop and finished his work first.
Then, she dialed Leng Xiao’s number.
After a few rings, Leng Xiao’s voice could be heard. She could vaguely hear the baby crying.
“Brother, are you coaxing me? I’ll call you again after you’ve coaxed the baby to stop crying.”
“No, I just gave it to the nanny. How was your business trip?”
Leng Xiao asked with concern.
Leng Xiaoduan smiled and said,” Not only did work go smoothly, but I also watched a show. I was too busy in the morning and didn’t have time to tell you.””
“What show?”
“I met Zhao Qinlan…”
Leng Xiao asked,” Xiao Duan, did you take any photos or videos?””
“No, I only cared about watching the show in the morning and didn’t take any photos in front of others.”
“It’s fine if you didn’t take a photo. Tell me the hotel address and I’ll send someone over.”
Leng Xiaoduan told him the address.
Leng Xiao nodded.
Yu Xin called him from inside, and he told Leng Xiaoduan to move to another hotel.
He hung up the phone and went into the bedroom.
Yu Xin said that she needed to go to the washroom. Leng Xiao helped her out of the washroom.
He called one of his lackeys to go to A City…
“You sent someone to film Zhao Qinlan?”
Beside him, Yu Xin heard him finish the call and asked in surprise.
Leng Xiao told him what Leng Xiaoduan had told him just now. Yu Xin was stunned after hearing it.
“That Zhao Qinlan cheated on her husband? And a bodyguard.”
“Yes.”
“Then I support you in exposing her. Even if there’s not enough evidence to bring her to justice for what happened back then, you have to make her pay for what she did.”
