“So you were even more unwilling. You tried everything to break her pride, to clip her wings. All you wanted was to confine her, to see her obsessed with you! Just like two years ago, you disregarded her feelings, forced her to stay, and in the end, it led to her family’s downfall. If not for you, she would have been married with children by now, happy with her family, without a single day of hardship. All the pain she endured was caused by you. And now, you’re saying all these things. Don’t you find yourself disgusting? Your vile nature has never changed. Even if you have a moment of remorse, in the long years to come, if you feel a moment of jealousy, she and the people around her will suffer. She only has one life, and you’ve worn her out. Actually, what she wants is for you to never appear in front of her. If you truly love her, why can’t you just let her
Han Xu listened to Shen Qingyue’s accusations, his eyes blazing as if they could burn everything down. He restrained himself, mindful of Chi Ming’s presence. “You’re twisting the truth!”
Facing Han Xu’s fury, Shen Qingyue remained calm. “You know exactly what I mean, President Han. We won’t assist you in this matter, and we don’t want to involve innocent people, especially Tong Jia. She won’t see you. Mr. Chi is also injured and needs rest. Please leave.”
Han Xu gritted his teeth and threatened, “Shen Qingyue, you have Chi Ming protecting you, so I can’t touch you. But what about Tong Jia? You said it yourself, she’s innocent! But she’s also helpless, with a dying mother. Can you help her just once? Can you keep helping her?”
Shen Qingyue’s expression turned stern. “You’ve already tortured Tong Jia this much, what else do you want?”
Han Xu sneered, “I don’t even know what I might do. I’ve never understood how to appreciate delicacy. If one day she loses an arm or a leg…”
Shen Qingyue stared at him, her words deliberate. “Han Xu, you will regret this.”
“What do I have to regret?” He had done so many things; he never knew how to write the word ‘regret.’ With that, he did not linger any longer and left, pushing Qin Zhen along.
As they reached the door, Qin Zhen could not help but look back. He saw Shen Qingyue bending down, arranging a cushion for Chi Ming, then fetching water for him. Her movements were practiced, as if she had done it hundreds or thousands of times before. Qin Zhen withdrew his gaze, his demeanor turning silent and gloomy.
After leaving Chi Ming’s ward, Han Xu decided to retreat for the time being. He thought it over; Chi Ming and Tong Jia didn’t have direct contact, and Tong Jia was just an employee of Shen Qingyue. While he could help her once, he couldn’t keep protecting her forever. When Shen Qingyue had free hands and Chi Ming was no longer involved, he would capture Tong Jia again. By that time, he did not believe Tong Wanzhe could remain hidden. After all, Tong
Wanzhe had given Tong Jia the ring; their relationship was definitely unique.
After the group had left, Zhang Jianci entered the hospital room. “That kid Qin Zhen sure knows how to talk. He’s not afraid that I might come in and throw him out of the window along with his wheelchair? His legs aren’t working properly now, but he still dares to think like that.”
Shen Qingyue chuckled, teasing him, “Then why didn’t you come in earlier?”
“Didn’t you give the word, Sister-in-law? As long as you call, I’ll come in
immediately! I’ll dismantle his wheelchair and let him crawl back on his own.”
Shen Qingyue helplessly clarified, “I am not your sister-in-law.” She had said this so many times, but Zhang Jianci was as slippery as an eel.
Zhang Jianci played the rogue, “Ask Brother Ming, I only listen to him.”
Shen Qingyue did not need to ask; she already knew his answer. Asking would only add to the awkwardness, so she changed the topic, “This hospital belongs to the Qin Group. Let’s not stay here. Let’s go to another hospital.”
“I have no problem with that,” Chi Ming spoke up, “but Miss Tong’s injuries might make it inconvenient to move.”
Shen Qingyue had overlooked this point. Tong Jia had several broken bones; she could hardly move, let alone breathe comfortably.
However, Zhang Jianci said, “Whether we change hospitals or not doesn’t matter. Han Xu wants to capture someone; he can go anywhere. If we station more people here, there shouldn’t be a big problem. He can’t directly cause a conflict here.’
Shen Qingyue thought Zhang Jianci had a point, so she did not say anything more.
Seeing that she still seemed troubled, Chi Ming asked, “Do you need me to handle the Han family for you?”
Shen Qingyue shook her head, “The Han family is not easy to deal with…” She did not want Chi Ming to get into unnecessary trouble, especially since he was still injured.
Chi Ming, nonchalant as ever, said, “Not easy to deal with doesn’t mean impossible. As long as you want, I can handle it.”
Shen Qingyue was stunned. He always said shocking things so casually..
