Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 301

“He hasn’t arrived yet. Take a seat first. Since it’s almost dinner time, let’s order some food.”

Yan greeted her, asking her to sit down. Shen Qi then sat down and glanced at the time. It was already half past six in the evening. There is still an hour and a half before eight, so it should be enough.

Looking at the expression on her face, Yan couldn’t suppress her curiosity and asked, “Are you in a hurry? Do you have something else to do?”

Then, Shen Qi told Yan what had happened before she came here.

“Why didn’t you tell me earlier? If I know this, I’ll just ask you to go first. It’s enough to just have me here.”

“Since I’m already here, it’s useless to say anything else.”

“Why would it be useless? Why don’t you change into the dress now and go back directly? It won’t be good if the relationship between you guys is affected.”

“It’s okay. I’ve already told him that I will go over later. The dinner party will officially start at eight. I will be here until seven. There’s still enough time to go back.”

Upon hearing her words, Yan felt relieved. “Well, let’s order some food first. Vice President Ye said he would be here in ten minutes and asked us to order anything we like.”

“Okay.” Shen Qi nodded and ordered two dishes with Yan. In fact, she didn’t have any thoughts about this anymore. She was a little anxious to know the results at first, but now that all her mind was on Ye Moxuan, she was not so concerned anymore.

What Ye Moxuan said before she left had left a deep impression in her.

Ten minutes later, Ye Linhan finally arrived. He seemed to have dressed up specially for the occasion—he wore a white suit with an exceptionally neat bow tie. Once he appeared in the restaurant, he attracted many women.

Then, Shen Qi and Yan heard the discussion from the women at the next table.

“Who is this man? He is so handsome.”

“Stop looking at him. It’s obvious that this kind of high-quality man already has a girlfriend. No matter how much you look at him, he won’t be ours.”

“Hey, which of the two next to him is his girlfriend?”

“It should be the one who looks younger. She looks young and beautiful.”

“You fool. It must be the one in the blue dress. They look very compatible.”

Shen Qi was speechless upon hearing that.

They are so nosy! If it were possible, she would like to tell them that both of them were not Ye Linhan’s girlfriends.

Yan complained in her ear softly, “Don’t these people know how to keep their volume down when they comment about others? We can hear them so clearly.”

Indeed, if they could hear the comments, Ye Linhan must have heard them too.

Sitting opposite them, Ye Linhan’s gaze quickly glanced past Yan and fell on Shen Qi’s face. “Sorry, the traffic was quite bad on the road, which is why I was late.”

“It’s okay.” Yan hurriedly waved with a smile while Shen Qi still remained calm.

The table next to them began to discuss vehemently again.

“Look, that young woman waved to the guy. I told you that she is his girlfriend!”

“Are you an idiot? The guy is obviously looking at the girl in the blue dress. Apart from that, why does she even need to wave? If they are a couple, she doesn’t even need to do that. They would understand each other without even speaking.”

Shen Qi could only pretend that she had heard nothing. After all, she couldn’t control what others would like to say.

Both of them remained silent for a while, and Shen Qi suddenly asked, “Linhan, what is the result? Has it come out?”

Ye Linhan looked at her attentively, and his voice was soft and gentle, “Since it’s almost dinner time. Let’s talk about it after dinner.”

“But—” Shen Qi was a little worried. As soon as she uttered the words, she felt Yan’s hand tugged at her under the table. She glanced at Yan and realized that she was being a little anxious. After all, Ye Linhan was here to help her—he owed her nothing. Since she still had some time, she could wait a little longer. After all, he even came here despite the traffic jam, so he must be quite hungry.

It was better to discuss it after eating.

Shen Qi didn’t say anything and ate quietly with the two of them, and the neighboring table occasionally made some loud comments too.

Ye Linhan suddenly reached out and put a piece of meat into Shen Qi’s bowl, making her pause for a moment. Before she could react, she heard an exclamation from the neighboring table. “I told you so! The guy gave that girl in blue dress some food—they are definitely a couple.”

Another voice said with dissatisfaction, “Who says that they are together just because he has put some food in her bowl? Maybe he’s just being polite!”

“You really know how to defend yourself!”

Shen Qi looked at the meat in front of her and thought about it negatively. She had a feeling that Ye Linhan was doing this deliberately, trying to verify what they were saying. Obviously, he heard the conversation at the next table and did this on purpose.

Although Shen Qi knew that she shouldn’t think like this, she just subconsciously felt that he did this deliberately to make people misunderstand them.

Hence, Shen Qi didn’t even touch the meat and only ate the others that were in front of her.

Ye Linhan didn’t feel embarrassed about it either; he remained calm and composed. After some time, Shen Qi ignored the neighboring table.

After they had a quiet dinner, Yan checked the time and felt anxious for Shen Qi. “Vice President Ye, what is the result of the matter I asked you to investigate?”

Ye Linhan raised his hand and glanced at time as his gaze fell on Shen Qi’s face. She seemed to be very anxious since the moment he walked in here.

He could probably guess why.

Thinking of this, Ye Linhan smiled slightly and said in a soft voice, “Don’t worry, the result is out, but before I came here, my secretary was sorting it out for me, so you might have to wait a while. What’s wrong? Do you have any other events you have to go to later in the evening?”

Upon hearing that, Yan’s expression changed. She looked at Shen Qi with a conflicted expression, but before she could say anything, Shen Qi said, “It’s nothing urgent, but it’s not early already. We don’t want to trouble you this long.”

“It’s fine. I’m off already, so I have the entire evening at my own disposal,” Ye Linhan said again. After that, he suddenly remembered something. “Oh, if you are worried about your safety because it’s getting late, I can send you back.”

Yan hesitated before she said, “Vice President Ye, Qi’s place is quite far away from here. If you know the result, can you let us know first?”

“This matter is very complicated, and it is probably a little difficult to verbally recount. I think it’s better for us to wait until my secretary comes.”

“In that case,why don’t we let Shen Qi leave first? I will wait here on her behalf.”

With that, Ye Linhan probably understood and looked at Shen Qi. “Do you have something else to do later?”

Since he had already asked this question, Shen Qi didn’t deny it anymore and nodded. “Well, I have something up at eight o’clock. I’m sorry about that.”

“‘Eight o’clock’?” Ye Linhan asked thoughtfully. Then, he suddenly remembered something. “Are you going to the dinner party?”

Shen Qi was a little surprised to hear that. “You know about it too?”

“What a coincidence. I’m invited to the party too. If you didn’t let me know about it, I would have forgotten about it.”

“Wow, you guys can go there together then?”

After she finished speaking, Yan became excited. If this was the case, she was not afraid of delaying Shen Qi’s time because the two of them had to rush over to attend the dinner party at the same time, so Ye Linhan wouldn’t delay too much time too.

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 302

Yan was excited, but Shen Qi was still worried.

She didn’t want to share a ride with Ye Linhan. Ye Moxuan had already misunderstood Ye Linhan and her. If she went to the dinner party with Ye Linhan again and weren’t seen, it would be all right, but if she were to be seen with Ye Linhan, Ye Moxuan would probably misunderstand her again.

Thinking of this, Shen Qi became even more morose.

Ye Linhan said, “I know what you are worried about. We will leave as soon as we get the documents, and I will send you there. On the way, you can also see the documents that my secretary has put together for you. Before we arrive, I’ll find a safe place for you to exit the car so that no one will misunderstand anything.”

Shen Qi was speechless upon hearing that.

Then, she looked up at Ye Linhan in surprise, feeling extremely guilty at that moment.

She was worried that Ye Moxuan would misunderstand her, so she wanted to reject Ye Linhan.

However, Ye Linhan had thought about everything for her. He could even guess what she was thinking.

I really…

For a moment, Shen Qi blushed, feeling ashamed.

There were many times when she felt particularly guilty about the way she acted toward Ye Linhan.

“So, are you all right with the arrangement now?” Ye Linhan asked aloud.

Shen Qi suddenly couldn’t speak. She bit her lower lip and lowered her eyes without replying to Ye Linhan.

Yan probably sensed her emotions and hurriedly spoke for Shen Qi, “Then, I will thank the Vice President Ye on behalf of Qi. You treat your family members really well.”

Ye Linhan shot Yan a glance before averting his gaze coldly.

He felt annoyed after hearing Yan say the word ‘family members.’

He didn’t want to be Shen Qi’s family member. If he wanted to be her family member, it would be another type of familial relationship, which was different from how the one they had right now.

He pursed his lips and then glanced at the time on his watch. “She should be here soon. There is still some time, so don’t worry.”

“All right.”

After waiting for about half an hour, Ye Linhan’s secretary had finally arrived. When she stopped in front of Ye Linhan, she smiled at Shen Qi who had met her before. When Shen Qi was transferred to another department, she always went to Shen Qi and gave her advice.

But seeing her now, Shen Qi just felt awkward.

“I’m really sorry for keeping you waiting for a long time. There are a lot of documents, so it took me quite a long time to organize it. I hope you two won’t mind.”

“Not at all. Thank you.” Shen Qi got up and smiled at her.

The secretary’s gaze fell on her face as she looked at Shen Qi meaningfully. Then, she blinked mischievously. “Since I have delivered this, I shan’t bother you guys anymore. I will go back first. My mother is still waiting for me for dinner.”

“Sure. Be careful on your way back.”

After the secretary left, Shen Qi couldn’t stop herself and said, “Sorry for troubling you and your secretary, Linhan. Thank you very much.”

“You don’t have to thank me. The box on the table is your dress, right? If you want to go to the dinner party, you will have to dress up. Grab the documents first, and let’s set off now.”

After that, Ye Linhan got the car key and stood up first. When Shen Qi saw that, she felt that it was inappropriate to look through the documents at that moment, so she stood up with the box and the documents.

Ye Linhan asked them to wait by the door after he went to foot the bill. When he went to take his car, Shen Qi and Yan waited at the entrance of the restaurant.

“It’s only seven right now. You still have a lot of time to get there. Qi, after you get in the car, you should read the documents first to see what the result is. But after you know the result, don’t act rashly. Think about it before deciding what to do, get it?”

“W-Won’t you come with me?” Shen Qi asked Yan hesitantly.

Yan shrugged and smiled. “Of course not. It’s a dinner party, and I’m not invited. People would laugh at me if I go.”

Hearing that, Shen Qi frowned solemnly. In the past two days, she seemed to have gotten used to Yan’s company. If she didn’t accompany me…

“Don’t worry. You just need to remember my words clearly—don’t be impulsive, and think it through before taking any actions, all right?”

Shen Qi could only nod. Then, she stepped forward and hugged Yan. “Thank you for your hard work these past two days.”

“I-I’ve always felt sorry after I misunderstood you in the beginning. After getting to know you, I realize that you are quite stupid, even more so than me. You’re not only stupid, but you’re also naive. Oh, forget it. No matter what, I see you as my friend. Since we’re friends, there is no need to be so polite.”

“Okay.”

For some reason, Shen Qi felt a lump in her throat.

Friends… Best friends…

She suddenly thought of Han Xueyou again.

Perhaps before the two of them fell in love with the same man, the friendship between them was real.

However, after they fell for the same man, they started to compete with each other. In the end, they could no longer be friends.

“In the future, we won’t become enemies, right?”

Upon hearing that, Yan was taken aback. “Of course not! What happened between you and Han Xueyou will never happen to us. Although I’m somewhat a nobody, I am a woman of principles. I will never fall in love with the same man as you. As soon as I know you like someone else, I will stay away from him, and I’ll never be attracted to him.”

What about Han Xueyou? Has she warned herself like this beforehand? Has she ever tried to control herself at first but realized that she can’t help herself anymore, or has she never warned herself and just followed her feelings? In the end, she fell in love with him and—

“Well, don’t think too much about it. I will leave right after you get into the car. If anything comes up, just send me a text message, and we will discuss it together.”

After she finished speaking, Yan gently pushed her away and pulled her aside to wait for the car together.

Soon, Ye Linhan’s car drove out and stopped in front of the two of them. He was still acting very gentlemanly—he got out of the car and opened the door for them. After Shen Qi got in the car, Ye Linhan signaled Yan to get in.

Yan waved her hand and said, “No, I’m fine. Don’t you still want to go to the dinner party? You guys better leave quickly.”

“I can send you back on the way.” Ye Linhan smiled.

Yan smiled awkwardly. “Vice President Ye, it’s really okay! My house is just nearby, so I’ll arrive home soon after hailing a cab! You guys go on ahead.”

After that, she stretched out her hand to push Ye Linhan to the front of the car. Then, she turned around and ran away.

Seeing her running away, a look of frustration flashed across Ye Linhan’s eyes. After that, he got in the car again and glanced at Shen Qi in the back seat. “She doesn’t want to get in the car.”

Shen Qi nodded. “It doesn’t matter. Just let her be.”

After she finished speaking, she lowered her eyes and looked at her feet calmly.

In fact, Shen Qi could feel that Yan had been deliberately avoiding Ye Linhan and Ye Moxuan. She was probably worried that they would become enemies one day.

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 303

Perhaps she’s doing this to take care of my feelings, especially because of what happened with Han Xueyou afterward.

Shen Qi pursed her red lips and did not speak anymore.

Moreover, she forgot to read the documents.

After shooting her a look through the rearview mirror, Ye Linhan asked quietly while driving, “You and Yan are quite close, aren’t you?”

Hearing that, Shen Qi returned to her senses and nodded subconsciously. “Of course.”

“No wonder this girl can do so much for you. She is indeed a friend who is worthy of keeping.”

Shen Qi couldn’t help but smile. “Yes, she is more loyal than I thought. I never expected that she would be so good to me.”

“You have your dress ready for the dinner later, right?”

“Yeah.”

“But I haven’t. When I pick up a suit later, you can put on makeup and dress yourself up there. Then, we will leave on time. Everything is already well calculated. You don’t have to worry about being late.”

Everything was arranged perfectly again. Other than nodding her head obediently, Shen Qi didn’t seem to be able to react in another way.

She was holding the dress box and the thick pile of documents, which contained investigations about Han Xueyou.

She should have opened it when she got in the car, but she didn’t know why she didn’t even think about doing that.

After staying motionless for a long time, Ye Linhan seemed to have noticed something and suddenly asked, “Don’t you want to open it?”

Hearing that, Shen Qi was taken aback and smiled slightly. “I’m not in a hurry.”

Ye Linhan’s eyes were a little cold. “I thought you were in a hurry when we were eating just now. It turns out that this is not what you care about, huh?”

How is it possible that I don’t care about this?

Shen Qi tightened her grasp on the documents in her hand. She was quite concerned when she saw this, but the look in Ye Moxuan’s eyes when she went out worried her until now.

She felt as if she was in a situation where she had to choose between two things that had been placed in front of her. With just a glance, she would know which one was more important to her.

Between Ye Moxuan and the authenticity of Han Xueyou’s alleged pregnancy, she had already chosen the former.

Yan kept saying that she was not brave enough because she had been hurt before and that she was still traumatized by the idea of marriage for fear of being betrayed again. If she was willing to believe in Ye Moxuan wholeheartedly, such a thing would not happen.

Is it too late for me to believe in Ye Moxuan now?

Thinking of this, Shen Qi quickly took out her cell phone to text Yan.

Yan had probably gotten in a cab as she replied quickly.

Upon reading the content of the message clearly, a lump formed in Shen Qi’s throat, and she almost cried out loud.

She hurriedly stretched out her hand to cover her mouth with some tears in her eyes, but she was also smiling at the same time.

‘Just follow your heart. If you are willing to choose to believe it, that means you are brave enough to face your feelings. I am very happy for you. Qi, no matter what your decision is, I will always stand by you. All the best for everything!”

Indeed, she had to face her feelings courageously.

There were two consequences of putting all her eggs in a basket—the worst was that she would go back to square one. There was nothing she couldn’t afford to lose.

Shen Qi smiled and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. Then, she put the heavy pile of documents into her bag, thinking of destroying it when she returned.

Ye Linhan also noticed her actions. At that moment, he was a little disappointed, feeling a little empty. After a while, he smiled bitterly. “It seems that you really like him.”

As soon as Shen Qi put the documents away, she paused when she heard his comment. After a while, she nodded. “Yes, that’s true.”

There was nothing to deny after all.

Ye Linhan said nothing, and a peculiar silence fell on the car. When they reached the destination, Ye Linhan took her to put on some makeup before going to choose his outfit.

Shen Qi told the makeup artist that she was in a hurry, so she requested her to put on the makeup quickly. The makeup artist reassured her and asked her to change into her dress quickly before putting on makeup.

When the makeup artist put on her makeup, she could feel that the makeup artist was very skilled and did everything very quickly, but she still felt that it took a long time.

When Ye Linhan’s voice sounded outside, the makeup artist’s hand retracted at the same time.

“It’s all done. Miss, you look stunning!”

Shen Qi came to her senses and looked at herself in the mirror. It turned out that the makeup was done.

But she didn’t have the mood to inspect it closely. After hurriedly thanking her, she got up and walked out.

Ye Linhan was waiting for her outside. When he saw her coming out, a look of surprise flashed across his eyes.

The dress Ye Moxuan prepared for her was light silver, which was completely different from the style she used to wear. The silver color made her fair skin appear even more dazzling. With the makeup on, she looked like a princess who had just walked out of a painting.

When the light reflected on Shen Qi’s body, Ye Linhan experienced some kind of illusion—it felt as though the person in front of him was a princess who was born in a noble family and was loved and flattered by everyone.

However, Shen Qi came from a middle-class family, so it was quite rare that she had such an air of elegance around her.

After taking a few steps, Shen Qi suddenly staggered, almost toppling over.

Ye Linhan’s expression changed immediately as he quickly stepped forward to support her. “Are you okay?”

Still shocked, Shen Qi shook her head. “I’m fine.”

The few people standing beside her also turned pale upon seeing her stumble, but they were relieved to see her being supported.

Thank God!

“That’s good to hear.” Ye Linhan let go of her hand and let her stand firmly on her own again. “Since everything is done, let’s go.”

“Sure.”

Shen Qi walked out with Ye Linhan and headed for the car again.

When they reached the sides of the car, Ye Linhan suddenly thought of something and unbuttoned his suit jacket to take it off. “Put it on. It’s quite chilly at night, and your dress is not thick enough to keep you warm.”

Looking at his suit jacket, Shen Qi instinctively refused. “Thank you, Linhan, but it won’t be cold in the car later.”

With that, she opened the door and sat inside the car.

Ye Linhan’s hand was hanging in mid-air while holding his suit jacket. After a while, he put the suit jacket back on without another word and mocked himself, feeling bitter.

Ye Linhan, she likes Ye Moxuan very much. What are you still hoping for?

…

It was getting closer to the starting time of the dinner party.

At that moment, the hall was extremely lively. The staff were preparing for the party to begin, but there was a wheelchair on the second floor. Ye Moxuan was sitting in it as he stared coldly at the entrance downstairs without any expression on his face.

That woman hasn’t appeared yet, and she hasn’t called me once.

Hmph, how cruel.

Xiao Su, who was standing by his side, felt his disappointment and couldn’t stop himself from muttering. “Young Master Ye, are you waiting for Young Lady? She will definitely come. I have already sent her the address.”

Upon hearing that, Ye Moxuan came to his senses and curled his thin lips into a sneer. “It has nothing to do with me if she doesn’t come.”

Xiao Su replied, “Aren’t you looking forward to her arrival?”

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 304

Ye Moxuan retorted, “Why do you assume that I’m looking forward to her arrival?”

Xiao Su explained, “Well, you’ve been looking at the entrance this whole time. Aren’t you waiting for Young Lady?”

Initially, he wanted to say that he saw it with both his eyes, but after thinking about it, it seemed impolite to say that. So, he minced his words.

“I’m just looking at the entrance, yet you assume that I’m waiting for her. Xiao Su, when have you become an expert in analyzing people’s expression?”

Xiao Su hesitated before answering. “All right then. Just ignore what I said.”

Come on, it’s so obvious that you are waiting for her, yet you still refuse to admit it.

I really don’t understand why they are fighting again.

But after thinking of what he had investigated, Xiao Su became worried.

Young Lady, you must come. If you don’t come tonight, I’m afraid—

Xiao Su didn’t dare to think about it anymore.

After all, it was a very important day today—the reason why Ye Moxuan wanted to invite her to the dinner party was to introduce her to everyone so that everyone knew that Shen Qi was his wife.

Before leaving the villa, Ye Moxuan even asked her once more, but she turned him down.

Woman, you better arrive when the party begins.

Otherwise, I won’t forgive you.

Ye Moxuan said silently in his mind and snorted coldly before turning the wheelchair to leave.

Meanwhile, a car was currently speeding down Xingfu Road. Shen Qi glanced at the time and realized that there were still ten minutes left before the clock struck eight, but they were still on the road.

“Linhan, are we almost there yet?”

Ye Linhan nodded. “Yes. Once we’ve crossed the bridge in front, we will reach our destination after another two hundred meters.”

Great!

Shen Qi smiled. Since the bridge was near, she could see Ye Moxuan immediately.

She didn’t break her promise—she would be punctual.

Seeing her anxious look, Ye Linhan sped up a bit, but no one would have thought that an accident would happen at that moment.

When they were approaching the bridge, a small truck on the road, which was swerving left and right, drove toward them at an incredibly high speed.

Shen Qi felt something was wrong. When she looked up, the small truck was already right in front of them. She was so frightened that she suddenly screamed out loud, staring wide-eyed at the small truck that was about to collide into their car.

When Ye Linhan who was driving in front realized that, he hurriedly turned the steering wheel as he panicked—he didn’t expect this to happen. While turning the steering wheel, Ye Linhan turned around and bellowed at Shen Qi behind him, “Qi, get down!”

Bang!

…

Bang!

The party started on time, and the opening music was the sound of fireworks exploding. The guests had already begun to enter, but Ye Moxuan did not see the familiar figure at the entrance.

Xiao Su glanced at the time. “It has just started right now, and it may take more than ten minutes for all the guests to enter the venue.”

Hearing this, Ye Moxuan frowned. “Did you give her an invitation card?”

Xiao Su was taken aback for a moment and shook his head. “I don’t think so.”

“Damn it. Then, how will she enter?”

Xiao Su came to his senses immediately. “Noted. I’ll go to the entrance to bring Young Lady in.” With that, Xiao Su quickly turned around and walked to the entrance where several staff were unsurprisingly checking for invitation cards. If Shen Qi was here, she definitely could not get in without having an invitation.

Many people knew Xiao Su, so they greeted him.

“Assistant Xiao, are you here to help out?”

Xiao Su smiled at them in return and replied, “Yes, I’m waiting for someone.”

“Wow, that person must be incredibly important since you’re here for them in person. I wonder if you can reveal to me who this VIP is. Hehe.”

“You guys should go in now. The party has already begun.” Xiao Su would most definitely not tell him. After all, Young Master Ye wants to introduce Young Lady personally. Who am I to say anything about this?

Xiao Su’s gaze searched through the crowd behind him. Many people were very well dressed with many pieces of jewelry on them today, but he didn’t see Shen Qi’s figure. Xiao Su felt anxious, wondering if Shen Qi would come.

Please don’t tell me that she’s not coming anymore.

With this thought in mind, Xiao Su quickly took out his cell phone. It was better to give her a call.

So, he called Shen Qi right after.

“Hello, the number you have dialed is temporarily out of service.”

The cold, robotic voice repeated this sentence over and over again. Xiao Su’s expression immediately changed upon hearing that. What’s the matter? Is it possible that she won’t be here tonight?

Oh my God, I’m so anxious! Thinking of Ye Moxuan’s poker face that could almost freeze him to death, Xiao Su was in despair. If Young Lady is not here today, Young Master Ye’s mood today and in the future will… This is bad!

Anxious, Xiao Su thought of looking for Shen Qi himself. Even if she didn’t want to come, he would have to find her and drag her here.

Thinking of this, Xiao Su put away his cell phone and walked outside, but he was stopped by someone. “Assistant Xiao, are you going out? You can’t go out at this time.”

Xiao Su was troubled by all his worries at that moment and couldn’t help but frown when he heard that. “What do you mean?”

“There’s a car accident on the bridge. The driver of a small truck was drunk, and he smashed into the rails of the bridge. It’s horrible! Why did he even drive after drinking? No one can pass through there, and the police are taking charge of everything.”

“Is that so?” Xiao Su’s frown deepened. If the rails were broken, the entire road would be blocked. Is Young Lady stranded there?

Keeping this in mind, he returned to the second floor and walked to Ye Moxuan’s side. Just when Xiao Su was about to tell Ye Moxuan about this, he heard his cold voice. “She isn’t coming, is she?”

“Young Master Ye, there has been an ac—”

“If she’s not coming, let her be.”

With that, Ye Moxuan turned and left the second floor. Xiao Su’s expression changed as he hurried to catch up to him. “Young Master Ye, maybe Young Lady is still on the way. She told me that she would come before leaving the villa. She isn’t the kind of person who breaks her promises.”

“Really? Where is she now? If she isn’t the type of person to break her promises, tell me—where is she now?”

Xiao Su stuttered, “Uh…”

He couldn’t say a word. In fact, he could understand Ye Moxuan’s feelings. After all, after knowing those things, he still gave Shen Qi a choice, but she had chosen another path.

It has been ten minutes since the party has started, yet Young Lady still has not shown up. No wonder Young Master Ye is furious.

Seeing that he would be busy with other matters, Xiao Su had no choice but to follow Ye Moxuan first. As for Shen Qi, if she had arrived, he would bring her in when she appeared later.

…

“The rails of the bridge are damaged. The truck ran into several cars along the way, and several people were injured. The investigation is still ongoing.”

When Ye Linhan was rescued, he was already in a semi-coma. He was stabbed by broken glass in many places of his body, and he had most probably suffered a concussion. On top of that, he was bleeding.

After he was rescued, he was laid flat on the ground. Then, he grabbed the man’s hand. “Save… the person behind!”

The man froze for a moment. “You mean someone else is in the back seat?”

“Yes!”

“Got it. We will rescue the person right away.”

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 305

Shen Qi was not badly injured. When the truck was about to hit them, Ye Linhan quickly turned the steering wheel to avoid it, but he was not quick enough. The truck brushed against the front part of the car and directly hit the car beside theirs before slamming into the rails and falling directly into the lake. Several lifeguards had been contacted to save the victims, but it was still unclear whether the people in the truck were dead or alive.

Shen Qi ducked after hearing Ye Linhan’s command, but the impact at that moment was too great. She could not withstand it and passed out immediately. Her body was also stabbed by some glass fragments, but fortunately, there were not many injuries on her body.

When she was carried out, she was laid next to Ye Linhan, and she looked pale.

Ye Linhan was injured severely, but he was still very conscious. When he saw Shen Qi lying next to him, he got up anxiously, wanting to check on her. The person next to him said, “Sir, for the sake of your safety, you better not move. This lady here seems to be fine—she just suffered some light injuries.”

“How can you be sure that she was only slightly injured? I am so heavily injured, yet I can still speak and move. If she is not injured, why is she unconscious?”

“Uh…” The man was at a loss for words when he heard Ye Linhan’s reasoning. He glanced at Shen Qi. There were indeed not many injuries on her—just a few abrasions. She didn’t seem to have suffered any major injuries, but why was she unconscious?

“Qi?” Ye Linhan endured the pain in his body and called out Shen Qi’s name.

However, Shen Qi didn’t move at all. It was as if she was not breathing.

Feeling anxious, Ye Linhan asked the paramedics. “Excuse me, can you call an ambulance for me?”

The man froze for a moment and nodded after a moment. “Sir, the ambulance is already on the way. It will be here soon. Don’t worry.”

It’s already on the way? Ye Linhan let out a sigh of relief.

Qi, please be okay!

If something happens to you, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life!

The situation on the bridge was very chaotic. Except for the area that was restricted by the police, many bystanders were standing there, watching. The police had no choice but to evacuate the crowds first. After the evacuation was over, the ambulance arrived at the scene quickly.

Ye Linhan managed to stay conscious until Shen Qi was put on a stretcher and carried into an ambulance. When he got inside, he kept holding on and asked the doctor, “Doctor, how is she doing? Is she in any danger?”

The doctor quickly checked Shen Qi and replied to Ye Linhan, “It seems that there should be no major problem at the moment, but your injuries look very serious.”

With that, he glanced at the two nurses next to him. “Give him first aid treatment first.”

Hearing that Shen Qi was not in any danger, Ye Linhan was finally relieved. His willpower to stay awake slowly dissipated at that moment. Gradually, Ye Linhan really couldn’t bear it anymore and drifted into unconsciousness.

“Doctor, he has passed out.”

“Don’t worry. Just continue to give him first aid treatments. All his wounds must be disinfected again.”

“All right.”

The doctor turned around and looked at Shen Qi again, thinking that these two must be a couple, or else the man would not be so worried about the woman. Even though he was heavily injured, he continued to remain conscious until he heard that she was fine before succumbing to his injuries and passed out.

…

Meanwhile, the party was in full swing.

“Is she still not here yet?” Even though Ye Moxuan said such harsh words to Xiao Su, he still hoped that Shen Qi would suddenly appear at the entrance, or in the corner, or in front of him, telling him that she was here.

However, after waiting for a long time, he realized that she was nowhere to be seen.

When Xiao Su heard his question, he was very startled. He stammered, “I have sent people out to wait for her. As soon as she arrives, I will report to you immediately.”

“What time is it now?” Ye Moxuan asked coldly.

Xiao Su glanced at the time. His expression changed, and he whispered in a low voice, “It’s almost nine.”

“Pftt.” Ye Moxuan sneered. “She’s unbelievable.”

“Young Master Ye, I wonder if I should tell you this.”

“Since you’re wondering about it, just hold your tongue,” Ye Moxuan rebuked coldly. Xiao Su shivered with fright, and when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them back again.

Sigh, it’s better not to mention it then.

What more can I say? It’s not the first time that Young Master Ye is angry with her.

When Young Lady arrives in front of him, everything will be better. I better not worry about this.

Just let nature take its course. Judging from Young Master Ye’s proud attitude, as long as Young Lady is willing to say nice things to him and act cute in front of him, it won’t be difficult to solve.

However, Xiao Su had never expected that the incident this time was completely different from before.

Meanwhile, the situation at the hospital was quite hectic.

The injured victims at the scene of the accident were all sent to the hospital. As Ye Linhan suffered from quite a lot of injuries, he was sent to the intensive care unit. Shen Qi didn’t seem to have sustained any serious injuries, so she was sent to the general ward. When the doctor found out that she was pregnant, his expression immediately changed. “You say that she is pregnant?”

“Yes.”

The doctor glanced at Shen Qi. “Since she has been in a coma until now, she may have suffered injuries in other unknown parts. Quickly move her to the intensive care unit to check on her.”

The nurse nodded. Just when she was about to transfer Shen Qi, she suddenly moaned and slowly woke up.

“You’re awake?” the nurse exclaimed and leaned over to her. “How are you feeling? Do you feel any discomfort?”

“Uh…” Shen Qi only felt that her head was very heavy and a little painful, and it took a while before she could see clearly. Then, she saw doctors and nurses surrounding her; all of them wore a worried look.

“You guys…”

“Stop talking. Take a deep breath and focus on yourself. Tell me if you feel any discomfort.” The doctor walked over and stood in front of the nurse before saying in a deep voice.

Her voice was calm and powerful, causing Shen Qi to obey what she had said and take a deep breath. After a while, she shook her head. “It seems that there is nothing uncomfortable, but—”

“But what?” the doctor asked nervously.

“I just feel a little dizzy.”

“Do you feel any pain anywhere?”

“It seems that the back of my head hurts a little.”

After she finished speaking, Shen Qi thought of the scene just now. At that time, Ye Linhan asked her to duck. Since she didn’t know what to do, she could only obey his command and curl her body. However, because the impact was too great, her body moved backward, and her head probably hit the door. At that moment, she only saw stars in her vision, and she couldn’t remember anything else afterward.

“Oh, in that case, it’s probably because the impact was too great that you passed out. I will give you a basic body checkup and deal with the external injuries. If you feel all right, you can be discharged first.”

“Okay, thank you very much, doctor. By the way, the guy who was with me—”

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 306

“Don’t worry. He’s in the intensive care unit and is currently being treated.”

Hearing that he was in the intensive care unit, Shen Qi’s pale face turned even paler. “What did you say? Intensive care unit? Is he…”

“His external injuries are more serious, so they have to be treated quickly.”

Serious external injuries? Shen Qi recalled how the car had grazed the front part of the car, and the broken glasses probably pierced through all parts of Ye Linhan’s body. As she recalled that scene, her face turned white with fear.

“Is he all right then? Is it life-threatening? Am I allowed to see him?” Shen Qi suddenly got up from the bed, lifted the quilt, and was about to get out of bed with bare feet.

The nurse stopped her right away. “Are you sure you are fine? You shouldn’t be out of bed so soon. You should lie down and be observed for a few more days. Besides, do you not know that you are pregnant? It’s dangerous for you to be unconscious for so long.”

Shen Qi shook her head and said, “I’m fine.”

The nurse tried to persuade her, but Shen Qi was determined and had already planted her feet on the ground. She was still wearing the dress Ye Moxuan gave her, and her hair looked messy. There were a few cuts on her arms and face, but they were not serious. Only one corner of her mouth was pierced, leaving a blood-red cut on the corner of her lips.

“Let me treat this wound for you.”

The nurse tried to treat the wound for her, but Shen Qi answered firmly, “I really am fine. Can I go see him now?”

After all, they came together, yet he was the one so badly hurt. If he didn’t tell her to duck in time, she couldn’t imagine how badly injured she would’ve been.

The doctor observed her and finally said to the nurse, “Take her to him then.”

“All right, come with me.”

The nurse brought Shen Qi out of her ward and turned left. Shen Qi followed quietly behind her as she suddenly thought of something, “By the way, where is my bag when I was injured? Where are my belongings?”

“The police have already managed to keep the scene of the accident under control, so your belongings should be with them. Don’t worry. You can go to the police station to pick them up once you recover.”

Hearing that, Shen Qi nodded her head, relieved.

“Thank you.”

They soon arrived at Ye Linhan’s ward where he was receiving his treatment, and Shen Qi saw Ye Linhan lying on the hospital bed through the glass window. His situation was serious, and he was bleeding a lot. It looked horrifying.

Shen Qi was frightened, and her breathing became erratic.

“Look away. The process of treating the wounds is not a great sight to see. Besides, you are pregnant and shouldn’t see such bloody scenes.” The nurse could feel her shortness of breath and instantly walked up to her to block her sight. “At the moment, the mister’s condition seems to be fine, and he was conscious when we arrived. He kept telling us to treat you first. Sigh, you two must be a couple. He really cares about you and was holding on for you despite his condition. He only passed out when he heard that you were fine,” the nurse explained.

Hearing that, Shen Qi was shocked. Her pink lips opened feebly, but she could not say a word.

What the hell have I done?

Shen Qi regretted it a lot. If only I didn’t show my impatience, Ye Linhan wouldn’t have driven so fast. I had time, so why did I keep rushing? We were about to arrive anyway, but I kept asking him if we were almost there.

I must be the one who distracted Ye Linhan. If he wasn’t distracted, he would’ve been able to tell that something was wrong with the truck. If he noticed it beforehand, this tragedy wouldn’t have happened.

“H-He…”

“He’s fine. Don’t worry,” the nurse could feel her distress and comforted her in a soft voice.

Shen Qi sniffed and whispered, “Can I wait here until he wakes up?”

“Certainly, but his wounds are being treated. Don’t go in until he’s done.”

“Okay.” Shen Qi nodded and sat down on the chair outside the ward. Her mind was filled with the image of the truck speeding toward them. At that moment, it was actually Ye Moxuan’s face that flashed before her eyes.

Is it because I thought I was going to die, so I saw the most important thing in my life?

It’s a pity that I have most probably missed the party by now.

Thinking of this, Shen Qi lowered her eyes and closed them silently.

Ye Moxuan probably hates me now. I promised him, yet I didn’t turn up.

After a long wait, the nurse finally ran out to her and informed her, “Miss, your boyfriend is awake and wants to see you.”

Hearing that, Shen Qi raised her head and couldn’t be bothered about the word, ‘boyfriend.’ After all, the situation didn’t allow it. She got up and asked, “He’s awake?”

“Yes, come with me.”

Shen Qi followed the nurse into the ward and saw Ye Linhan who was previously unconscious awake.

“Linhan!” Shen Qi couldn’t help but call out to him after she walked up to him while biting her lower lip.

Hearing the way Shen Qi addressed him, Ye Linhan’s face froze a little. He then put on a helpless smile. “I’m glad that you’re fine.”

Shen Qi’s lower lip almost bled as she was biting it too hard. His wounds are so serious, but he still thought about me first.

At that moment, Shen Qi felt even guiltier.

“I’m fine, but you…”

“Come here.” Ye Linhan made her sit by the bed as he looked at the corner of her lips. He was distressed to see that the wounds on her lip and her arms. “I’m sorry for not protecting you well.”

Shen Qi shook her head. “No, you have protected me very well. I am the one who dragged you this mess.”

“No, it was all meant to be. I did all this voluntarily, and no one is to be blamed. However, you are different, and you still have a chance.”

“What?” Shen Qi was stunned and looked at him helplessly.

She didn’t understand. He said there was still a chance. What does that mean?

Ye Llinhan’s face was horribly pale, especially if one looked at it under the light of the lamp. However, he still said to her with his pale face, “Qi, the dinner party is not over yet, so you still have some time. I’ll get ready and send you there.”

With that, Ye Linhan was about to get out of bed. Shen Qi was so frightened that her soul almost left her body. She quickly got up and stopped him. “No! Linhan, you are badly injured, so you shouldn’t move at all.”

The nurse at the side was frightened as well. “She’s right, mister. Your wounds are pretty bad, and you shouldn’t get out of bed. You should rest for two more days.”

“I’m okay.” Ye Linhan got up stubbornly and wiped away the bloodstain on his lips. “These are just external injuries. I can still handle them.”

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 307

“No way! I can’t go anywhere when you’re so badly injured,” Shen Qi exclaimed.

If I leave at a time like this, or if I let Ye Linhan send me to the dinner party, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life.

I don’t want to be a ungrateful person!

“You fool,” Ye Linhan whispered and couldn’t help but smile faintly. “Don’t you like him a lot? I’m just helping you.”

“No!” Shen Qi shook her head vigorously. Ye Linhan’s smile became bitter and self-deprecating, which made her nose tingle. As she shook her head, her tears fell. “I don’t need you to do this. All you have to do is just stay in the hospital and get well soon!”

“Didn’t I say that I was fine? These are just some external injuries, and all I need is some bandages. Let’s go. It’ll probably be too late if we don’t go now.”

‘N-No!” Shen Qi gritted her teeth as her tears fell. “I don’t want you to drive me there. Linhan, don’t you get it? Even if I go, I will go alone and won’t let you send me there again! I don’t want to cause any trouble for you anymore.”

At the end of her sentence, Shen Qi was already sobbing.

She used to suspect Ye Linhan’s purpose to be impure, but now, she realized she was the bad guy. He had been so kind to her, yet she kept doubting him and even thought of him as a bad guy.

He is currently seriously injured, but he still insists on sending her to the venue.

Since the nurse, who was hiding at the side, was so young, she started tearing up as well as she was easily moved by them. It was truly touching. Originally, she thought that they were a couple, but it turned out that they weren’t.

Besides, the man was clearly trying to help the woman to be with another man. It really was touching.

How much courage must it take to send the woman you love into the arms of another man?

“Don’t cry.” Ye Linhan frowned subconsciously as he heard her crying. He really was just being considerate and didn’t expect her to refuse his offer.

“If you go on crying, all the time will be wasted. Come on, I’ll take you to the venue, and I’ll come back to the hospital after that. How about that?”

Shen Qi still shook her head vigorously, but Ye Linhan actually grabbed her wrist and dragged her out at the next second. Shen Qi’s face turned pale as she responded, “Linhan, I don’t want to go. Let go of me! I can go by myself!”

The nurse burst out crying.

Although Ye Linhan was injured, he was still a man and was very strong. Shen Qi could not pull her arm away from him, and she didn’t dare to touch him because of his injuries. She could only allow him to drag her.

Although he was pulling her like his usual self, Shen Qi could obviously feel that Ye Linhan’s steps were not as stable as usual. He must have suffered from more serious injuries than she had first thought. Besides, the nurse’s words also made her believe that Ye Linhan was just forcing himself to be tough for her and act as if nothing happened.

If she didn’t stop him, how long could he possibly last? Even if he could last a while, it would only be his mentality that was forcing him to stay strong, while his body wouldn’t be able to take it.”

“Linhan, stop. I want to talk to you, Linhan. Ye Linhan!”

Shen Qi was so angry that she called out his name.

Ye Linhan breathed unsteadily, but his steps actually stopped. He turned and looked sadly at Shen Qi.

Shen Qi gasped. There were tears in the corners of his eyes. “Listen to me,” she said. “I know you are doing this for me, but I can hail a cab to go to the party, so you should head back and get a good rest. Besides, I can choose not to go. Okay?”

With that, Shen Qi even put on a smile and said, “It will be fine if I don’t go to Moxuan’s place. We are husband and wife. I will just explain it to him after this. Linhan, I’m not going. I’ll accompany you back to your ward where you can rest.”

She wanted to pull Ye Linhan back, but Ye Linhan’s body seemed to be rooted to the ground and wouldn’t move at all no matter how hard she pulled him.

Finally, Shen Qi couldn’t contain herself and burst into tears.

“Ye Linhan, I really don’t need you to do so much for me. Would you mind not doing this? Come back to the ward with me. If you collapse again, my conscience will be haunted by you for the rest of my life.”

Ye Linhan’s eyes stared at her, and he finally smiled bitterly after some time. “What is there to be guilty for? I’m not doing this to haunt your conscience. I just want you to be happier and more content.”

“Come on. Let me get you there safely to the party and to his side before the party is over.”

Shen Qi stayed silent.

“Come on. There isn’t much time left to waste. By then, you will just be wasting time here, and you won’t be able to meet Moxuan.”

Shen Qi stood still without moving her step a little. She couldn’t do such cruel things.

“Qi, I am doing all this willingly. I can’t give you happiness, but at least there is something I can do for you. The only thing I can do for you is sending you to his side, not making you accompany me here as you think of him. If you don’t go now, I’m afraid that my injuries.m won’t get better. Cough! Cough!” After that, Ye Linhan even coughed loudly on purpose. His weak body seemed even weaker, and it felt like he would collapse anytime soon.

Shen Qi flushed white from shock and quickly nodded. “Fine, I agree.”

“You finally agree. Come on, let’s go.”

Shen Qi didn’t have a choice. She couldn’t persuade him. Instead of staying in the cold wind with him, it was better to just go with him.

“Let’s take a cab. You’re not in the right condition to drive and your car. You probably can’t drive it now. It’s at the police station.”

Ye Linhan smiled and said, “Okay, whatever you say.”

They then hailed a cab at the side of the road. When Ye Linhan bent down to get into the car, he seemed to have twisted his body a little. The pain made him break out in a cold sweat, and Shen Qi was so frightened that her face turned pale instantly. “Are you okay? Maybe—”

“No.” Ye Linhan swallowed the pain and sat in the car. Shen Qi had no choice but to follow.

“Are you sure you’re okay?”

Ye Linhan forced a smile. “I said I would take you to him. I promised, and I will do it. Driver, send us to this address.”

After telling the drive the address, he continued, “There is a car accident on the bridge so you won’t be able to go through there. You can take another route, but be as fast as possible. Of course, safety first.”

“No problem.”

The driver nodded and quickly stepped on the pedal as the car sped away.

Shen Qi was still nervous as she sat in the car. She bit her lower lip.

Her entire heart was a mess right now. Ye Linhan is so badly injured, yet he is still accompanying me to the party. But I’ve been late for so long, will Ye Moxuan still be waiting?

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 308

No one knew what would happen until they arrived at the party. The only thing she could do then was to have hope.

Just as she drifted away in her thoughts, Ye Linhan suddenly spoke weakly, “You can get down by yourself when we arrive. I won’t accompany you to prevent Moxuan from misunderstanding.”

Hearing that, Shen Qi felt a lump in her throat and couldn’t say a word, so she nodded instead. She then heard an indifferent chuckle from Ye Linhan.

She bit her lower lip as she looked toward the window and saw Ye Linhan’s reflection on the window. He looked so weak and pitiful. Her red eyes were also reflected on the window. Shen Qi didn’t dare to to look again and hurriedly lowered her head, letting her tears drop on her skirt. Her skirt was made out of muslin, hence her tears quickly vanished.

The driver drove steadily, and they soon arrived at their destination as there was no traffic at that time.

“Is this the place you mentioned? There are too many people in front, so it’s inconvenient for a car to go through. Can we stop here instead?” The drive turned around to ask Ye Linhan.

Ye Linhan smiled and nodded. “Sure. We’ll just get down here.” He then looked at Shen Qi and asked, “Can you manage on your own?”

Shen Qi nodded. Of course I can. Ye Linhan has suffered such severe injuries, yet he still managed to send me here. What more can I expect?

“Sure, but Linhan—”

Ye Linhan smiled gently at her and suddenly reached out to touch her head. Shen Qi dodged it instinctively, but she stopped moving as she remembered something, thereafter she stopped leaning backward.

Ye Linhan’s hand paused in the air for a moment and put it on her head again. He gently stroked her head and said, “Don’t worry. Follow your heart and do what you want to do. You don’t have to care about me. I will go back to the hospital and rest well, okay?”

“Okay.” Shen Qi nodded with red eyes. “Linhan, I will go visit you at the hospital after this.”

“Sure, I’ll be waiting for you in the hospital then.” Ye Linhan smiled at her. He reached out and stroked her head gently as he realized that her hair was a little messy. “Although your hair and dress is a little messy, and your makeup is a little smudged, there’s no time left to care about it. Just go to Moxuan right away, got it?”

“Linhan, I’ll go first then.”

“Be careful.”

She pushed the door open and walked down carefully in her high heels. As she closed the door, she couldn’t help but look back at Ye Linhan after a few steps. Ye Linhan was sitting by the window and watching her from a distance. It felt like the stare was a million years long.

Shen Qi bit her lower lip. Well, I’m here. I can’t turn back now. Anyway, I have to find Moxuan first.

Once Shen Qi made up her mind, her gaze became determined, and she started to walk toward the bustling crowd in front of her.

By that time, the banquet had come to an end. Ye Moxuan’s face was dark and gloomy for the entire night, and he let out a cold aura. No one dared to provoke him as he looked just like a cold, grim reaper. His aura was so strong that it was indeed frightening.

Xiao Su had been trying to hide as far as possible, fearing that he would get himself into trouble. As time passed, his worry grew as well. He kept thinking, What is going on with Young Lady? She clearly said that she would be here. She took the dress, got the address, and replied to his message, so why is she not here? Besides, I can’t get through her phone!

Xiao Su has a kind of bad feeling about it. Did something happen? Otherwise, it shouldn’t be like this. Young Lady clearly has feelings for Young Master Ye, judging from her usual acts. Even though she was meeting Ye Linhan tonight, it shouldn’t… As he thought about it, Xiao Su’s face changed as he remembered something.

At the same time, Shen Qi was already near the door. Although Ye Linhan tried to tidy her hair a little, she still looked like a mess. How can she not be a mess? After all, she just experienced death, went to a hospital, and rushed back here from the hospital.

As soon as she got to the door, she was stopped by someone. Shen Qi was startled and said, “I-I came to attend the dinner party.”

The waiters took a glance at her and said, “Attending the dinner party? Please show me your invitation card.”

“Invitation card?”

Shen Qi’s face changed. I don’t have an invitation card! Ye Moxuan just gave me an evening dress, and I didn’t think much. I thought I would just have to come to the party right away. I didn’t expect that I needed an invitation card.

But as she thought about it, it was understandable that Ye Moxuan didn’t give her the invitation card. If she were to go in with him, she wouldn’t need any invitation card.

“No invitation card? I’m sorry, but we can’t let you in.” After all, it was a special party, and not everyone could get into a dinner party hosted by the elites. What would happen if some swindler or murderer snuck in?

“Sorry, I forgot to bring the invitation card. I had a little accident on the way here. I rushed from the hospital, and I left all my belongings at the police station. Can’t you just let me in?

Hearing so, they looked at her and realized she was a mess. As such, they exchanged gazes suspiciously. Logically speaking, the party was ending soon, and someone with a purpose wouldn’t choose to come at this hour. Even if they did, they wouldn’t dress like her. Besides, the wounds on her face and arms looked real. It seemed like she really ran into an accident.

“I’m terribly sorry, miss. We sympathize with you, but you are not allowed to enter the party without an invitation card. Please understand.”

Shen Qi’s face turned pale, and she bit her lower lip tightly. If I can’t go in, does that mean I won’t be able to find Ye Moxuan then?

Thinking so, she quickly spoke, “I can understand. I won’t go in then, but can you pass the message to Ye Moxuan?”

Realizing that she was calling Ye Moxuan’s name, their faces changed.

“Why would you call out Young Master Ye by his name? Who are you?”

“I…” Seeing the fierce glare in their eyes, Shen Qi shrank a little in fear and changed her mind. “I won’t find Ye Moxuan then. Can you inform Xiao Su for me?”

The few of them looked at each other when they heard her calling Ye Moxuan’s assistant’s name directly.

“Please tell Xiao Su that I came late. I’m sorry, but I didn’t do it on purpose. There was a reason for it, and I would like to explain myself.”

She spoke earnestly, and her sincere look convinced them, thereupon she said, “Wait here while I get Assistant Xiao.”

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 309

One of the waiters at the door went in to get Xiao Su. Shen Qi couldn’t go in and had to wait outside.

As she was wearing an evening dress and hadn’t got in, she was freezing as the cold wind blew. Although she was enthusiastic and had many things to tell Ye Moxuan, she couldn’t bear the cold.

She unconsciously reached out to hug herself. When a few greeters saw her shivering, one of the girls shifted her body and said, “The wind is very cold if you stand there. Why don’t you come and stand beside me?”

Hearing that, Shen Qi showed a grateful expression. Just as she was about to take a step and stand there, a shorter girl beside the girl said aloud, “Why are you offering her to come stand here? Who knows if she’s good or bad?”

Shen Qi’s steps froze, and she could not move a step further as she heard this sentence.

“Don’t speak nonsense. She doesn’t look like one. Besides, the party is coming to an end. If she had other purpose, she would have come earlier. Besides, can’t you see that she is injured?”

“So what?” the short girl replied angrily, “Do you know how many girls are trying to get close to Young Master Ye? Maybe she is just faking all her injuries. Who knows if it’s real, judging from the amazing makeup skills in this era?”

“I don’t think they’re fake though.”

Shen Qi was embarrassed by their words. She bit her lower lip and whispered, “Anyway, someone had gone in to ask. You will know if what I said is true after a while. I mean no harm now, and I’m not going to force my way in. You don’t have to say such mean words, do you?”

“Yes, Lan, that really was a little harsh. Let’s just wait a little longer!”

The short girl was outraged right away and shouted, “You think my words were harsh? You didn’t bring your invitation card, and it’s already kind of us that my colleague went in to ask. What is wrong with you and your attitude? You probably are here to hook up with some rich guy, huh?”

“Enough. Stop speaking.”

“I’m going to say it still.”

Shen Qi lowered her eyes. Forget it. I don’t care about these people. I just need to get in. It’s really important now, and I can’t be bothered about this.

Realizing that she stopped speaking, the short girl was actually pleased. “You must be feeling guilty and dare not to speak, huh? If you are lying, I advise you to leave when it’s still early, or else you won’t have a chance to leave even if you want to when Assistant Xiao is here.”

Shen Qi did not pay attention to her and just remained still in her original posture.

She wondered, Is the party going to be over soon? Will I make it in time and look for him when Xiao Su comes later?

“Stop speaking.”

Realizing that she wasn’t answering anymore, the person found it boring and didn’t care about her anymore after she turned around with a scoff.

After waiting for a long time, the man who went in finally came back.

Looking from afar, Shen Qi could see that he was rushing, but Shen Qi didn’t see anyone behind him. Her heart went cold. Is Xiao Su unwilling to come? Does that mean I won’t be able to find Ye Moxuan tonight?

Before he could come forward, Shen Qi walked quickly toward him. However, the short girl reached out and blocked her way. “Where do you think you’re going? Wait here.”

Shen Qi didn’t have a choice. She bit her lips and waited.

The man who went in soon came up to her.

“Well? Did you ask? Is she just pretending?”

Shen Qi looked at the man nervously too.

The man’s expression looked a little awkward. He scratched his head and apologized, “I’m sorry. I looked around and couldn’t find Assistant Xiao! I’m really sorry. How about you wait here a little longer, and I go in and look for you once again?”

“How much time is left before the party is over?” Shen Qi asked.

“About ten minutes.”

“That will be too late then. Would you mind accommodating me just once? I have to go in now.”

“Uh…”

“Of course not. Who do you think you are? You’re trying to take advantage of this situation, aren’t you? I’m telling you, as long as I’m here, it’ll be impossible! Don’t even think of going in tonight. You are just a liar who’s trying to sneak in. Ignore her and ask her to leave. If she doesn’t leave, we will call the police right away and get the police to bring her away. Show her what the consequences are for liars.”

Shen Qi bit his lower lip and finally exploded, “Call the police then. The bigger the fuss, the better it is for me. I don’t mind anyway. I have a clear conscience. I mean it when I say I know them.”

For a moment, the crowd was shocked by her aura. One of the girls whispered, “I think what she’s saying is probably true. Besides, it looks like she has a close relationship with Young Master Ye. Shall we just let her in?”

“Shu Ting, you are too soft-hearted. You actually believed her words just because she threatened you a little?”

“I…”

“Young Master Linhan is here!” someone whispered and warned. The few of them looked behind Shen Qi, and all looked shocked. “It really is Young Master Linhan. Why does he look like he is injured severely? What is going on?”

Hearing that, Shen Qi’s face changed, and she turned around immediately.

Ye Linhan looked pale and had his lips pressed together as he walked over. He was thin, and there was a thin layer of cold sweat covered his forehead. He looked extremely frail.

“That’s weird. Why is Young Master Linhan so late? Besides, he looks weak. What happened?”

The few of them were still discussing when they saw Shen Qi who hadn’t been moving turned around and walked toward Ye Linhan. “Why are you here? Didn’t I tell you to go back to the hospital and treat your wounds? Why are you…” she asked right away.

Shen Qi was really furious and anxious. He promised to go back to the hospital after sending me here, yet I’d been here for so long, and he is still here too!

Seeing Shen Qi rushed toward him anxiously, Ye Linhan’s forced his pale, thin lips to curve upward, and he replied softly, “I recalled that you don’t have an invitation card, so I told the driver to come back. How can I start something without completing it? I promised to take you to him, so let me watch you go in.”

“You…”

The waiters understood right away when they saw this.

What Shen Qi just told them was all true!

She is not a liar! The wounds on her body are all real!

The short girl named Lan was so afraid that her face turned pale. What to do? I seemed to have provoked someone I can’t afford to mess with, but that situation…I really thought that she was faking it.

How can it be true?

Ye Linhan shot her a glance and walked past her to approach the group of greeters.

“We had an accident on the way here, and we can’t find our invitation cards. Can you let her in for my sake?”

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 310

“Don’t joke around, Young Master Linhan. There’s no reason we shouldn’t let her in now that you’ve spoken. Miss, I’m really sorry. We never met you and didn’t know your identity. If we knew, we would’ve let you in. Please enter.”

Shen Qi stood still and looked at Ye Linhan’s back worriedly. She didn’t move a little.

Ye Linhan turned around and looked at her with a warm but pale and weak smile.

“What are you waiting for? The party will end if you keep standing there.”

“You…” Shen Qi was still worried about him.

“I’ll leave after I watch you go in.”

“Then, you have to keep your promise!” Shen Qi gritted her teeth and stepped forward. She turned around to look at Ye Linhan once again when she reached the door.

He still had the same gentle gaze and indifferent smile hanging on his face. He looked at her gently and spoke as he saw her turned around. “Go, don’t turn back.”

Shen Qi was extremely upset but still turned her head around and walked in.

Ye Linhan just watched her back until she vanished from his sight. He couldn’t hold it anymore and coughed. His body then fell forward.

“Young Master Linhan, are you okay? Oh my God, why are you so badly injured?” The people next to him immediately went forward to help him.

“It’s nothing.” Ye Linhan coughed a little and gently pushed them away.

He didn’t like having close contact with these people.

“Your injuries seem to be serious. I’ll get someone to send you to the hospital.”

“No need.” Ye Linhan gently shook his head. He figured that the woman inside might still meet some difficulties, so it was probably better for him to stay. He probably wouldn’t feel at ease if he didn’t watch her leave with Ye Moxuan tonight.

…

Shen Qi realized that it was crowded when she walked in, and there was a flight of steep stairs she had to walk down. Her dress was a little long, so she had to hold it as she walked down.

But everyone was moving around, and there were many tables. Shen Qi couldn’t see Ye Moxuan at all.

Where can I find him?

After some thought, Shen Qi came up with an idea.

According to Ye Moxuan’s status in North City, he would be the focus of the party if he was here today. Therefore, she just had to find him in the most crowded area.

Thinking so, Shen Qi was so happy that she was going to cry tears of joy. She scanned around and quickly squeezed through the place with the largest crowd.

She looked like a mess, and most people who saw her dodged her with a look of disgust. They then stared at her with a strange gaze.

“Who is this? What happened to her? How did she sneak in?”

“I’ve never seen her before. She looks unfamiliar. Whose daughter is it? She looked quite pretty.”

“Haha, let’s go take a look.”

Shen Qi was about to move forward when two men suddenly blocked her way. They were both holding a glass of cocktail and smiling flirtatiously. “Hey, gorgeous. Do we have the honor to invite you for a dance?”

“I’m sorry. I’m looking for someone.” Shen Qi nodded at them and walked past them. However, the two of them followed her. “Gorgeous, who are you looking for? Tell us and maybe we can help you.”

“Right. It’s okay if you don’t have the time for a dance. We can exchange our contact details and get to know each other. Just consider it as you’re making a new friend, okay?”

“I’m sorry. I really am in a hurry,” Shen Qi replied.

One of the men had already taken his phone out. “I know, I know. Come on, give me your number, and you can leave.”

“No.” Shen Qi stared at him coldly. “Mister, please don’t force me.”

The man’s expression darkened instantly when he heard what she had said.

“What did you say? We are all here for the party, and none of us is worse than you. Besides, what is wrong with making new friends?”

“Nothing wrong, but I’ve mentioned that I’m in a hurry and am looking for someone, haven’t I? Can you go away now?”

“Looking for someone? Tell us who you are looking for? Are you really looking for someone, or are you just making up an excuse?”

“Ye Moxuan!”

At the next moment, Shen Qi blurted out a name.

At first, the two of them were startled and didn’t respond until a while later. “Y-You… What did you say? Who was it?”

“My husband, Ye Moxuan. Do you know him? Can you bring me to him?” Shen Qi looked at that person as she asked. She knew that they wouldn’t let her go if she didn’t do something.

She didn’t have much time to joke around with them.

‘Pfft! Did You just say that Ye Moxuan is your husband? A-Are you joking?”

Although they looked like they didn’t believe it, it was obvious that their expression had changed. Ye Moxuan was a unique existence. Although many people despised that he was a handicapped, no one could beat him in business.

Lu Xunchang was really strong in the business world in the past, and no one had the courage to provoke him. However, he provoked Ye Moxuan for some reason some time later and was handicapped by Ye Moxuan.

Besides, Lu Group disappeared without a trace overnight.

Therefore, there was a saying in their circle that provoking Ye Moxuan was the same as messing with a tiger. No one would dare to do such a thing, or else their future would be doomed.

“Follow me if you want to know whether or not I was joking.”

With that, Shen Qi walked past them. The two men didn’t dare to follow. They felt that no one would have the courage to make such a joke. After all, it was about Ye Moxuan’s marriage, and no woman would have the courage to lie. Besides, the woman’s aura was quite overwhelming, and it was probably true.

“Could it be that she is the girl from the Shen family who got married to Ye Moxuan?”

“Pfft! Wasn’t that just an arranged marriage? Besides, a handicap getting married is just a joke. What can he do? Sigh, it’s a pity for that beautiful lady.”

“Tsk, tsk! He has his own luck as a handicapped. Although he is handicapped, he got married to a gorgeous girl.”

Shen Qi turned around to take a glance after walking some distance away. She was relieved that they didn’t follow her after she threatened them.

Phew!

She sighed in relief and quickly moved forward. Shen Qi finally saw a familiar figure when she got to the front.

It was Xiao Su!

“Assistant Xiao!”

Shen Qi couldn’t hold back and called out to him out loud.

Xiao Su, who was standing on the stage, was stunned. He seemed to have heard someone calling out to him, and that voice sounded familiar. This, he turned to look at the direction of the voice.

When he saw who it was, Xiao Su jumped in fright.

His face changed, and he almost couldn’t refrain himself. He soon calmed down as he realized that he was still on stage. He quickly got down from the side and brought her away.

Shen Qi was dragged out by him, but she kept looking around to find the person she was looking for.

“Where is Ye Moxuan?”
