Chapter 2082: I Don’t Want to Hide It Anymore

The next day.

Xiao Chu saw Ye Qingqiu giving Li Tingshen a kiss at the door.

He wasn’t surprised.

CEO Li had been in a good mood these two days and he felt much more relaxed.

After getting into the car and starting the engine, Xiao Chu smiled and said, “I thought Miss Ye would kick up a fuss about you having dinner with Miss Liang yesterday…”

The atmosphere in the car suddenly became tense. Xiao Chu suddenly realized that CEO Li’s mood seemed to be different from two days ago.

Li Tingshen didn’t say anything, but his face was calm and cold.

Making a fuss?

Yeah, what a joke.

Where did the woman who threw a tantrum at him back then go?

He hoped that she would argue with him.

However, she seemed to adhere to the word “obedient” from his mouth.

She didn’t say, ask, or make a fuss.

Be her so-called “lover” obediently.

Ha.

She had too many ways to stab him in the heart.

It was easy and he didn’t even have to do anything.

Xiao Chu’s heart skipped a beat.

It seemed like they were in trouble?

But the atmosphere was clearly good just now…

“In the afternoon, bring her to buy mid-autumn gifts. Bring her to Old Lady Bo tomorrow.”

Li Tingshen instructed again.

He would bring Miss Ye to Old Lady Bo tomorrow…

Tomorrow’s Mid-Autumn Festival…

Only then did Xiao Chu remember that the two of them didn’t spend the Mid-Autumn Festival together.

“Actually, after the surgery, I should be able to make it in time to spend it with Miss Ye…”

Li Tingshen closed his eyes and clenched his fists. His voice was so tense that it was about to break.

“If anything happens… how should I live with her?”

Xiao Chu’s heart sank and her grip on the steering wheel tightened.

He believed that he would never experience anything worse than what he had experienced three years ago.

The current Li Tingshen was a new noble in the business world that everyone was familiar with. He was extremely shrewd and had extreme means. He held power and was noble and elegant. It made people think that he was such a person. He was smooth and capable in everything.

But who had ever seen him afraid?

She was so scared that her eyes turned red.

He had seen it before.

It was the Mid-Autumn Festival three years ago.

His only relative was dead, his wife was sent to prison, he blamed himself for Ye Jianyun’s death, Ye Ze’s departure made him uneasy, and the company was in chaos…

No matter what, it was not something that ordinary people should bear.

At that time, everyone was worried that he wouldn’t be able to survive.

Even the slightest breeze would turn him into dust.

However, what she was afraid of happened.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Old Master Ye was critically ill. A hurricane with huge waves suddenly smashed down…

Miss Ye’s father had passed away less than two months ago, and Ye Ze’s fate was unknown. She already hated CEO Li to the core. If Old Master Ye left again…

What would happen if Miss Ye knew?

How devastated would she be when her family left her?

She would blame CEO Li again. She would hate him and take revenge on him…

How far would the gap between them widen?

The Mid-Autumn Festival was a day of reunion…

As a bystander, that was all he could think of.

In reality, no one knew what CEO Li was thinking.

In the end, she couldn’t truly empathize with him.

*

Heavy-duty dysregeneration sepsis.

Her bodily functions had deteriorated, her immune system had weakened, and her hematopoietic function had failed. She needed long-term plasma treatment. In serious cases, she needed full blood treatment.

Back then, Old Master Ye had used full blood treatment.

Back then, only Miss Liang was compatible with the bone marrow. Fortunately, the match was successful.

Back then…

Xiao Chu didn’t have time to think too much. The car had already arrived at the hospital.

She was not used to Liang Xuer’s new assistant, so she had been letting her study in the company. The one who followed her was the remaining one of the two assistants.

In order to accommodate the surgery tomorrow, she had to do a checkup at the hospital today.

When they arrived, Liang Xuer was sitting on a bench outside the examination room with a cotton swab on her arm.

Her long hair draped over her shoulders and face. She leaned there motionlessly.

“Are you done checking?”

Li Tingshen walked to her and stood in front of her, his voice cold.

Liang Xuer raised her head slowly when she heard the voice.

Xiao Chu was shocked.

Liang Xuer’s face was pale and her eyes were stiff. There was a dispirited look on her face.

Li Tingshen frowned and asked, “How much blood did they draw from you?”

Liang Xuer’s eyes flickered before she pursed her lips. On her pale face, her eyes, which were rapidly turning red, looked especially conspicuous.

“Ye Qingqiu was also hospitalized here a week ago?”

Xiao Chu’s expression changed and she subconsciously looked at Li Tingshen.

Li Tingshen’s dark eyes flickered.

Liang Xuer chuckled softly. “Do you know where she is now?”

Li Tingshen looked at her silently.

“Do you know or not? Is it that difficult to answer with two or three words?”

Seeing that the situation was amiss, Xiao Chu hurriedly said, “Miss Liang, this is a hospital. There’s no such thing as choosing a patient. Miss Ye was also a patient back then. It’s normal for her to be here…”

Liang Xuer stood up with a smile as tears streamed down her face. “I’m not feeling well. I might not be able to draw blood tomorrow. I’ll go back and rest first…”

“Xu’er.”

Li Tingshen grabbed her wrist, his cold voice and expression identical.

“Stop fooling around. He’s not anyone else but your grandfather.”

“He’s also Ye Qingqiu’s grandfather!” Liang Xuer raised her voice and flung her hand back as tears streamed down her face. “Let her save him! He’s my grandfather, but he indirectly killed my parents! In the end, he raised me back to the Ye family, but I used my blood to raise him for two years. Isn’t that enough to repay him for raising me?”

“The eldest daughter of the Ye family, the little princess of Ping Cheng City… Everyone knows how much Grandpa favors her. Compared to me, shouldn’t she save him? Huh? Why didn’t you ask her to come?”

Xiao Chu was trembling with fear as she listened. Looking at Liang Xuer’s tears, she was a little anxious.

“CEO Li…”

She had already coaxed him for three years. Tomorrow was coming. She just had to coax him again…

“She can’t.”

Li Tingshen’s tone was calm without any unnecessary thoughts. Xiao Chu was so nervous that she didn’t dare to breathe.

“Why not?”

“She doesn’t know and can’t know. Even if she does, her body won’t allow it.”

Liang Xuer felt dizzy and for a moment, she really felt suffocated. Her entire body was filled with an unbearable sadness.

“Why not? Why didn’t you prepare pig liver, beef, seafood, and chicken soup for her…”

As she spoke, she bent down and lifted her long dress, revealing her injured knees. The wounds on them had healed, but two obvious wounds could still be seen.

Xiao Chu glanced at it and quickly averted her gaze.

“I really want to know if Ye Qingqiu’s injuries have recovered? Can you still see these marks? Li Tingshen…”

Liang Xuer’s voice trembled as she cried. “My wound is infected… I don’t even have a choice to eat plain rice. Not only that, you even gave me pig liver, beef, seafood, chicken soup… It’s so nourishing and full of blood supplements. Why didn’t you prepare it for her? Is it because it will affect the healing of the wound or because it will leave a scar?”

“Her body doesn’t allow scars, so it doesn’t matter if it’s mine. Her body is weak and she can’t draw blood. Back then, I was covered in burns. A few days after the skin transplant, you dragged me from the bed to the operating theater. Have you ever thought that I’m also very weak?”

Li Tingshen’s face was cold and his thin lips were pursed into a sharp line, exuding a bone-chilling coldness.

“Why? Why are you so heartless to me? Back then, without Ye Qingqiu, I would have accepted the emergency. But why are you doing this to me this time…”

“What answer do you want to hear?”

After a long while, Li Tingshen spoke slowly. His gaze was indifferent as he looked at Liang Xuer’s teary face.

“Xu’er, I haven’t treated you badly in the past three years. I’ve given you everything you want. Your body, your face, the fame and benefits you have now… There aren’t many women who don’t envy you. I’ve given you everything, so you should repay me…”

Liang Xuer’s body swayed and she staggered. In the end, she leaned against the wall not far away.

“So… you’ve been good to me for the past three years because of my blood? You’ve been lying to me?”

“I’m just giving you what you want.”

He only gave her what she wanted…

Was it like how a beggar on the street wanted a steamed bun and he gave him one?

But that wasn’t all she wanted.

“Don’t play dumb. I want you. Have you given it to me?”

Li Tingshen looked at her deeply. “No one will suspect that I’m not yours these three years.”

Liang Xuer’s heart skipped a beat.

He even lied to her about this.

In the past three years, she had been living a lie. It was all a lie.

She was in extreme pain and suddenly laughed sarcastically.

“Life and death are normal. He will die one day. He’s not related to you. Do you have to lower yourself and be a big liar who’s destined to be despised by everyone to please me?”

Li Tingshen looked at her face, which was paler than before. Her expression was still calm, but it seemed more cruel.

“Do you have many more questions?”

Liang Xuer was stunned. “…Yes.”

Li Tingshen nodded. “I can answer you on the condition that you cooperate with tomorrow’s surgery.”

Liang Xuer froze for a long time before laughing coldly. “Okay.”

“CEO Li…”

Xiao Chu wanted to stop him, but she was interrupted by Li Tingshen.

Then, he said coldly, “He’s not related to me. He’s Ye Qingqiu’s grandfather. He can die, but he can’t die in these three years.”

Liang Xuer couldn’t think of anything more cruel than today. Even if she was blown up three years ago, it was better than now.

“She still has Auntie. Even if the situation was urgent back then, what about last year? What about this year? Why must it be me? Because I’m the easiest to coax and deceive?”

“Because Ye Lixun can’t come back.”

Liang Xuer nodded in understanding. Her tears seemed to be flowing naturally, and she looked strangely calm.

“So it’s all because of Ye Qingqiu. You indirectly caused her father and Ye Ze’s death, so you’re afraid that Grandpa will die soon after. After she’s released from prison, she will hate you to death… You’ve never given up on her? You’ve been waiting for her to come out…”

She paused for a moment before letting out a cold laugh. “I say, in the past three years, Grandpa has been seriously ill and Aunt has never returned. It turns out that she can’t come back. You’ve been stopping her from coming back, right? Three years ago, she came back alone and didn’t take Ye Qingqiu away. Are you worried that she will come back with enough people to take her away completely? Because once Ye Qingqiu leaves the country, you’ll lose all hope…”

“Yes.”

He answered her questions clearly and clearly.

Liang Xuer laughed and held her head with both hands. There was a quiet madness in her. “What else is there? Let me think. What else is there?”

This was a rare opportunity. She had to ask everything she wanted to ask.

“Have you fallen for me in the past three years?”

“No.”

“Not even with this face?”

“There are many people who are more like her than you.”

“Why does it have to be her?”

Li Tingshen frowned and thought for a while. “…I don’t know.”

Liang Xuer smiled again and looked up. Her gaze was sarcastic and ferocious. “Do you love her that much?”

This time, Liang Xuer waited for a long time, but there was no reply.

However, she felt that her question was the most redundant one.

“But so what?”

She looked at Li Tingshen and smiled, her tears falling again.

“In the end, it’s all because of you. You caused the death of the two people closest to her in this world. Two lives… Li Tingshen, she will never forgive you… So what if you love her so much? You’re destined to never love her!”

Li Tingshen’s eyebrows twitched and his chest heaved violently. He clenched his fists tightly.

“Are you done asking? If you’re done, I’ll get Xiao Chu to send you to rest.”

Liang Xuer kept smiling as tears streamed down her face.

Xiao Chu went forward and supported Liang Xuer.

“You don’t have to send her home. Just find a ward in the hospital and take care of her 24/7.”

Xiao Chu felt a chill in her heart. He was obviously going to imprison Miss Liang.

Liang Xuer didn’t say anything.

After Xiao Chu settled Liang Xuer down and returned to the company with Li Tingshen, he couldn’t help but say,

“CEO Li, it’s been three years. Why must you confess everything today…”

Li Tingshen’s eyes were deep and his brows were slightly swollen. His well-defined hand was pressed on it, but Liang Xuer’s last words still lingered.

“She’ll never forgive you… So what if you love her so much? You’re destined to love her forever!”

After a long silence, Li Tingshen finally put his hand down. His eyes were cold and distant.

“I don’t want to hide it anymore.”

He said slowly, his voice sounding relieved.

“She hates me enough.”

Everyone could think that Liang Xuer was his. In fact, he didn’t care if any woman was his.

But he didn’t want her to feel the same way.

He had lied to one, and now he was lying to two.

She didn’t want to lie anymore.

Not even for a day.
