“W-What do you mean?” Feng Rubing’s voice was trembling as she spoke. Her response only made Rong Jian more suspicious than ever. “Is it true that Qiqi’s not your younger sister?” he asked again.
“What nonsense are you talking about? How could Qiqi not be my sister? Who told you such nonsense?” Her face was pale as she refuted his claims. Rong Jian felt his heart aching to see the look on her face, but he stone-heartedly proceeded with his words. “I ran a DNA test.”
Horror spread across her face as she stared at him. Her lips trembled uncontrollably—she was too shocked to even speak. He then took another step closer. “Qiqi is Li Jianyun’s daughter!” Rong Jian decided to simply lie to her as he felt like Qiqi’s appearances did slightly resemble Li Jianyun.
But, the moment Rong Jian came to the end of his sentence, fresh blood spilled out of Feng Rubing’s mouth as her eyes rolled upward. She then collapsed onto the ground as her entire bod
Qin Jinhuan didn’t seem too concerned about it. He simply gestured for Bian Zijun to follow behind Mu Yu before he headed toward the hospital with the flask in his hands. He received a message from Bian Zijun when he arrived outside Qin Chengxi’s ward. His guess had been right—Mu Yu had indeed gone over to Rong Ying’s villa in the Fraternity Hospital. Dong Yueyun and Qin Wentao were both in Qin Chengxi’s room. They wore sheepish looks on their faces when they saw Qin Jinhuan entering the room, and they hurriedly came up with some silly excuse just to let themselves out of the room.“Huan.” Qin Chengxi looked weak and ill as she forced herself to sit up. She didn’t dare to look her brother in the eye. Qin Jinhuan didn’t speak nor look at her; instead, he simply placed the thermos flask on the table beside her. He then took a bowl out and began to scoop the watery porridge into it. His actions weren’t hurried, but Qin Chengxi felt oddly anxious as she watched him w
“What is it, Yu?” Nie Yunkang could tell that something was off by the look on Mu Yu’s face. “It’s nothing, Sir Nie.” Mu Yu gradually calmed her nerves before she gestured for Jiang Wenwen to take a seat. She then picked up the call from Rong Jian as she walked out of the lab.“Are you available for a chat now, Yu?” he asked on the line.“Hold on.” She quickened her footsteps and ran toward the end of the hallway, making loud thuds along the way. She only replied to his question once she saw that there wasn’t anyone near her. “I can talk now,” she said softly. She was contemplating how she would tell Rong Jian about the DNA test results.“Yu, I ran a DNA test.” His deep voice sounded from the phone.“What? You did a DNA test as well?!” She was dumbfounded. Did he also…“You did it too?!” He was equally shocked and in disbelief. “W-Whose samples did you use for the DNA test?” he asked.“I gave…” Mu Y
Once Mu Yu ran past a corner along the hallway, she turned to see Jiang Wenwen standing by the entrance of the forensic lab. Jiang Wenwen had cupped her hands around her mouth and was shouting for Mu Yu’s name. “What is it? What is it?” Mu Yu asked worriedly as she ran over. Jiang Wenwen jogged toward Mu Yu once she saw the other girl.“Did something happen?” Mu Yu asked as she huffed and puffed for her breath.“Young Master Qin is here.”“You’re shouting and calling me so frantically just because of that?” Mu Yu asked in disbelief.“Yeah!” Jiang Wenwen replied. After releasing a sigh of relief, Mu Yu then proceeded to lecture the other woman in a soft tone. “I thought something happened to you. That really scared me! You can just let him wait if he’s here; why did you have to make such a big fuss over it? Were you trying to get the whole building to know that he’s here?” she uttered as she flashed grins and nodded apologeti
The couple was in Room 8088 at Gloria Hotel. Qin Jinhuan was in the shower while Mu Yu lay on the bed with both her eyes focused on the ceiling above her. “What are you thinking about?” As Qin Jinhuan climbed into bed, he reached out to cuddle her. Mu Yu quickly pulled the sheets over his body firmly, afraid that he might catch a cold otherwise. “Do you think what we’re doing is right, Huan?” she asked in an anxious tone.He smiled when he realized that she was referring to what they did with Wen Zeyu and Jiang Wenwen. “Of course.”“I still have a bad feeling about it, though. Zeyu drank a lot,” she said.“How is he going to make a mistake if he didn’t drink too much? How is he going to get a baby if the mistake doesn’t happen?” Qin Jinhuan chuckled as he got on top of Mu Yu and pinned her below his body.“Stop fooling around! I’m talking about serious stuff here.” She applied force on his arms to stop his naug
‘Yeah, I’m here.’ Mu Yu hastily typed her response and sent it over before she waited for her friend’s response anxiously. Jiang Wenwen replied to her text soon after. ‘Aren’t you asleep yet?’‘No. How are you now?’ Mu Yu looked at the message and realized how odd it sounded. She deleted the words ‘How are you now?’ before sending her reply. ‘He’s asleep,’ Jiang Wenwen replied.‘Oh.’The conversation went silent for a while before it indicated that Jiang Wenwen was typing. She typed and retyped her sentences a few times before she finally sent Mu Yu a text. ‘I’m eternally grateful to both you and Young Master Qin regardless of what happens in the future. Thank you.’Through her text message, Mu Yu concluded that things must have gone the way Qin Jinhuan had expected it to. She stared at her screen for a while longer before she typed her reply. ‘Was it worth it?’ When Jiang Wenwen didn’t respond to her text imme
Rong Jian froze for a moment. “Yes. Who is this?” He replied before thinking too much about it.“Hahahaha…” Laughter could be heard from the other end of the line.“Qiqi?” Rong Jian guessed.“Good guess.”“It’s the first day of the Lunar New Year. Shouldn’t you wish me lots of luck for the New Year?” he replied.“Why can’t I wish for all of your wishes to come true instead?” Qiqi asked.“That would be even better.”“Rong Jian, will all your wishes come true only when you manage to be with my sister?” the cheeky voice asked on the other end of the call.“You silly girl. Where are you now?” he asked.“Ying and I are visiting Aunt and Uncle Rong at their residence.”“It’s no wonder you’ve been saying all these English terms then. My mother was the one who coerced you into learning them, right?” he replied.“You can’t say that about your m
More than anything, Mu Yu was naturally curious. Glancing outside the study and making sure that no one was around, she hesitated slightly before getting up. After hurrying toward the bookshelf, she peered into the opening between the racks. The secret room was rather small and not elaborately decorated; only a huge book rack rested against a wall, filling its entire width. The rack was made up of many smaller compartments, and each of them were filled with neatly-stacked A4 papers. To be stored so carefully in such a secretive place—what else can they be if not secret documents?Perhaps… They’re confidential clientele information?Realizing her intrusive act of stumbling into a private space, she quickly turned to leave. Just then, she noticed a large photograph mounted on another wall which made her stop short in her tracks. It was a photograph of a girl beaming with sparkling eyes—it was non
“What’s wrong?” Mu Yu was anxious.Yin Xiaotian did not answer. Instead, she only wept into her hands as Xin Yihan sighed and explained, “Our baby is gone, Yu.”He went up to Yin Xiaotian and wrapped her in an embrace, whispering comforting words into her ear. His face was filled with anguish as he said, “Don’t be sad—your health is more important. Don’t you remember what the doctor said? We’re still young, so we’ll have plenty of time to have children in the future. We just need to be more careful.”Yin Xiaotian buried her head in his arms but her sorrows persisted. Holding onto Xin Yihan, she sobbed silently into his sleeves. “What do you mean that the baby is gone? Did you have a miscarriage?” Mu Yu questioned urgently with worry in her tone. “It wasn’t a miscarriage; we went for a check-up today and found out that the baby simply stopped developing,” Xin Yihan said sadly. “The doctor has arranged a surge
"You ...""Dad, mom, you guys go back first," Shang Qi Qiang stopped his father who was about to have a seizure, and turned to Qin Jinhuan to apologize, "Big brother, a thousand mistakes are my fault, you let me meet Xiao Xi, I'll make amends to her and beg for her forgiveness.""Why are you the one making amends and begging for her forgiveness? It's not like she caused the accident! She caused it herself, okay?" Chen Juan was very dissatisfied with her son's words and immediately spoke out angrily, "It was her own fault that she deliberately found a reason to quarrel with you in the middle of the night and then ran out to meet another man before she got into the accident! Wasn't she at fault?"Chen Juan said while presenting the cell phone page about the intimate contact between Qin Chengxi and Fu Shaoyan to Qin Jinhuan and Mu Yu to see, afraid that they do not know as if, completely ignoring the side of the husband and son who made all kinds of winks.Mu Ye
"Sister-in-law, go and pull my brother, but you can't ...""I know I know." Muyi pressed her to lie down, "You don't want to hurt the wound!""Don't mind me, I'm fine!""Okay, okay, I'll go persuade your brother." Knowing that she was in a hurry, Mu Yu waited for her to lie down and then ran out and instructed the nurse who had made special arrangements to take care of Qin Chengxi before leaving in a hurry.Seeing that Qin Jinhuan's figure had long since disappeared from the elevator entrance, she hurriedly called him and, upon learning that he was in the underground parking lot, immediately ordered him to wait for her to go down."What the hell is going on? Wasn't Shang Qi always good to Xiao Xi before?" Mu Yu expressed her disbelief after getting into Qin Jinhuan's car."That's for Shang Qi to ask." Qin Jinhuan glanced grimly at Bian Zijun.Bian Zijun answered, "I've already gotten through to Mr. Shang, and he said that he'll immediately a
Qin Chengxi had never actually thought of leaving the Shang family because she never thought she would have such a rigid side."Xiao Xi ah, you're too honest and have a weak nature, your brother is always worried that you'll be bullied outside, and always asked me to advise you to put on a stronger personality. You are a member of the Qin family, you should show the Qin family's vigor. Your brother said, no matter when, no matter where, no matter what happens, he will always be your strongest backing. You have to memorize these words."Her ears rang with the words her sister-in-law had spoken to her so eloquently today.Previously, she had been silently putting up with Chen Juan's mouthiness in the Shang family because of Shang Qi, and now that Shang Qi was talking to her in such a tone, what reason did she have to put up with them?Today she was going to show them that she, Qin Chengxi, wasn't as weak as they thought, and that she also had a personality!
"Isn't it just a picture? Making a big deal out of it is not something the Hoshi I know would do!""Is this just a picture in your eyes? Is it not your disloyalty to our relationship?""When have I ever been unfaithful to our relationship? Hoshi, you're breaking my heart when you say things like that, do you understand?""Your attitude breaks my heart even more!""My attitude ..." Seeing her crying more and more sad, he only had to give in, "Okay, okay, it's my fault, I'll make amends to you, I'll apologize to you, okay?""It would have been your fault. Think about it another way, if the picture was of me with another man ...""No ifs!" He immediately interrupted her with a scowl."You know to be angry too.""Haven't I already admitted my mistake?""You drove Joey Zhi Yun.""No way!" Shang Qi refused Qin Chengxi without even thinking, "I need her badly now!"Qin Chengxi bit her lip, "So do you need me?""That's
Seeing that it was Chi Sihui's caller, he wanted to not answer it, but after a moment's hesitation, he answered it.In the end, the two families were family friends, and he and she had grown up together as little ones."Shangqi, where are you?" As soon as the phone was connected, Chi Sihui's petite voice came through."What is it?" He asked back, faintly."Let's have dinner together, we haven't seen each other in a long time.""Not available.""Alright, alright, don't be angry with me, I invited you to dinner today just to apologize to you.""Apologize to me? Isn't it an apology for Hoshi?""To her?" Chi Sihui's voice was through contempt, but she didn't continue, turning to say, "I'll give her an apology, but I only want to see you today. Come on, I've reserved a seat at the Fate Restaurant.""No time.""Eh!" Seemingly knowing that he was about to hang up the phone, Chi Sihui immediately exclaimed, "You're going home for d
"Uncle, Auntie."With Shangqi gone, Qin Chengxi has no one to rely on, and Chen Juan makes her apprehensive.Chen Juan didn't enter the room either, but just looked at her with a face full of compassionate concern,"Xiao Xi ah, how's your body toning up these days? Why are you getting thinner and thinner?""I've been a little sick the last few days, so I've been eating very little. Always sleepy."Afraid that she would bring up another topic that she couldn't face, Qin Chengxi made a gesture of yawning, looking really sleepy, hoping that it would make her realize that she was leaving."You can't even take care of yourself, how can I expect you to take care of Sang-ki in the future?"Qin Chengxi wanted to say, "Shangqi will take care of herself," but thought better of it and smiled dryly, "I'll get my body well as soon as possible. Don't worry, uncle.""You just can't carry on the flavor for the Shang family even after you've toned up your bod
"Eh! Shangqi, let go!" Qin Chengxi struggled sharply."Shang, Mr. Shang?"The group of people who came in originally wanted to ask Qin Chengxi to look into the break because there was an argument, but they didn't expect to run into this scene, so they were all embarrassed and subconsciously tried to turn away."If you're here, why don't you finish before you leave?"The one who spoke, Shang Qi, at this time he had let go of Qin Chengxi, but his hand was still on her shoulder, as if he was swearing a kind of sovereignty, as if he was saying, you guys can watch out, your boss is my daughter-in-law, if you dare to bully her, you are bullying me.The corners of Qin Chengxi's mouth twitched as he looked at him unnaturally, but he let him.The crowd exited her office immediately after saying what they had to say briefly and succinctly.He grinned and held her hand as he took her out to dinner.She finally smiled at the thought.Since s
Qin Chengxi answered Mu Yan's call.She knew that her sister-in-law was worried about her situation, and immediately stated that she had the support of Shang Qi as well as the Shang family's parents, and only then did Mu Yan say nothing, and advised her a few more times to take care of her health."I know, I'll go back in a few days to see you and Redeemer. I miss Redeemer." She responded with feigned relief."Isn't it easy to miss her? I'll come home from work and bring her to video you.""Okay, that's a deal."A few more words were exchanged before she hung up.When he came back to the office again, Sang-ki was already buried in papers.Looking at him, who had also lost weight, she felt both guilty and heartbroken.She's the one who dragged Sang-gi down.If it weren't for her, the papers in front of him wouldn't have accumulated like a mountain.Meetings were pushed back and forth, and some matters that needed to be handl
"Brother! Don't!"Qin Chengxi was also terrified and cried as she went up to beg Qin Jinhuan.Although she has been in her heart not ashamed of what her parents did, but in the end is her biological parents, she can not sit back and do nothing, not to mention the grandfather's corpse is not yet cold, and in any case the family can not be so farce."Ah Huan, calm down!" Mu Ye also immediately stepped forward to dissuade Qin Jinhuan.Qin Jinhuan didn't make a sound, but just looked askance at Qin Wentao with a chilly face, without the slightest look of being persuaded by them.The sound of running footsteps outside approached.Qin Chengxi, who was afraid of seeing blood, was terrified, but she knew she couldn't say anything about her big brother and could only cry and go up to her father and beg him to leave.Qin Wentao knew that he couldn't restrain his son, and was worried that he had no place to vent his anger, when Qin Chengxi crashed into
