Ye Qingqiu felt a stab in her heart.
She couldn’t help but blink subconsciously.
She remained motionless as she stared at him.
She wasn’t trying to find any other clues from his face. She just didn’t know what to do.
She should have said something especially courageous. For example, there were many outstanding men in this world who wanted the position of her boyfriend. She didn’t have to insist on him.
!!
However, she felt that these words were not even considered self-deception.
She felt guilty saying these so-called courageous words, but others found it ridiculous.
She didn’t have the hobby of creating jokes for others.
After a long while, she reached out to brush her hair. She tilted her head slightly and smiled at Li Tingshen.
“My rationality tells me that I can’t argue with you now…”
Ye Qingqiu held her hands together slightly. Her voice was a little tense. After a pause, she realized that she couldn’t find an accurate way to express that she wasn’t the weak and lowly party. Hence, her voice turned completely cold.
“I don’t want to see you now. Get out of my sight immediately.”
The sky above darkened and a gust of wind blew through the gap between them.
Li Tingshen looked at her quietly for a while before he stood up and distanced himself from her.
Ye Qingqiu walked past him and dragged herself on the cement floor, making a series of rapid and messy sounds.
At this moment, raindrops fell and hit the car window.
One drop, two drops, three drops…
Li Tingshen turned around and watched as the figure disappeared into the distance.
The rain gradually became heavier. Li Tingshen only returned to the driver’s seat when he saw the Ye family’s servant running to Ye Qingqiu with an umbrella.
He watched Ye Qingqiu enter the villa through the car window. After her figure disappeared completely, he started the car and left.
She would live well without anyone.
Who could possibly be indispensable to her?
*
If Li Tingshen disappeared from her sight, he would never appear again.
Ye Qingqiu had been staying at home for the past few days. She didn’t want Ye Jianyun to see her unhappy, so she stayed in the kitchen for three days to learn how to cook.
Everyone knew that Ye Qingqiu was in a relationship with Li Tingshen. When the servants saw her learning how to cook, they smiled and thought that she wanted to cook for Li Tingshen.
After all, it was inevitable for young people to date nowadays.
Ye Qingqiu had never entered the kitchen before, and the servants didn’t dare to let her near the stove.
She had spent a lot of time memorizing the names of the vegetables.
If not for Ye Qingqiu’s insistence, they wouldn’t even let her touch the knife.
For the next two days, Ye Qingqiu spent most of her time in the kitchen cutting carrots.
Cut the carrot.
The reason given by the servant was to hone her knife skills.
Liang Xuer seemed to have a fulfilling life and he rarely saw her.
Listening to the servants chatting in the kitchen, he knew that other than studying, she had been focusing on learning the violin.
Ye Qingqiu didn’t care about Liang Xuer’s whereabouts.
Everyone had their own ambitions. She was currently chopping carrots in the kitchen. Liang Xuer had chosen various aspects to enrich herself and her own lifestyle.
After hearing Liang Xuer’s gossip in the afternoon, they gathered at the dinner table.
When dinner was about to end, Liang Xuer put down her chopsticks and revealed her motive for coming home for dinner.
“A drama group looked for me not long ago. They’re grooming actors for the new script. I want to act in a drama with them in the future.”
There was no fluctuation in her voice. She was calm and expressionless. She was not asking for her opinion. She was just informing them out of self-righteous courtesy.
Ye Jianyun picked up a napkin and wiped her mouth slowly with a calm expression.
“What about your studies?”
“Try to have both.”
“What’s the scale of the play? When will it be? How long will it take?”
“A national tour. Maybe a world tour. I’ll follow the team after training next year. Maybe a month, maybe a year, maybe ten years.”
Ye Jianyun put down the napkin and looked up at him. “So you’re positioning your future now? Acting for the rest of your life?”
Liang Xuer nodded and said, “I like plays. Being able to act in a play personally has always been my dream. If I can act in a play for the rest of my life, I think I’ll be very happy.”
“The Ye Corporation will have some shares for you. I thought you would enter the company.”
Liang Xuer pursed her lips and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll explain clearly. I won’t make things difficult for you.”
After all, they were all children of the Ye family. She had no parents and had lived with them since she was young. When the time came, she would act in a drama instead of entering the company. In the eyes of outsiders, the father and daughter would probably ostracize her harshly.
Ye Jianyun glanced at her and chuckled. “You’ve always been an opinionated person. I have no right to interfere with your life. It’s good that you know what to do. The most important thing is to protect yourself.”
“Got it.” Liang Xuer nodded indifferently, her voice emotionless.
Ye Qingqiu had not eaten much and was poking the rice in her bowl in boredom. She seemed to be in a daze.
Ye Jianyun glanced at her and pursed his lips. “Qingqiu, what about you? What do you want to do in the future?”
Ye Qingqiu looked up lazily. “To school.”
“Can I attend school for the rest of my life?”
Ye Qingqiu held her chin and thought for a while. “Yes… I’ll enter the company.”
Liang Xuer stood up and said, “I’m going upstairs to rest.”
Ye Qingqiu didn’t look at her.
Hearing Liang Xuer leave the restaurant, Ye Jianyun asked, “What happened between you and Tingshen?”
Ye Qingqiu paused. “Nothing.”
Ye Jianyun asked again, “Do you know what he has been doing recently?”
“Do you think he’s the kind of person who would report to me?”
Ye Jianyun stared at her for a while. “Since you want to enter the company, you should work hard in that direction. I don’t expect you to know everything clearly, but you still need to know what you need to know. Tingshen is very bold in business. Don’t just talk to him and argue with him every day.”
“Who said we had a falling out?”
Ye Jianyun snorted. “Tingshen has left the two companies and is in the film industry. Why didn’t you know?”
Ye Qingqiu’s hand that was playing with the napkin paused and she looked at Ye Jianyun in surprise. “He wants to be an actor? Well… with his face, as long as he has some acting skills, he can become famous…”
Ye Jianyun frowned. “It’s an investment. What are you thinking?”
How could Li Tingshen go out and act?
Ye Qingqiu blinked and wasn’t surprised. “Why did he suddenly think of investing in movies?”
“The domestic entertainment industry has just begun and there’s a trend of prosperity.”
“Oh.” Ye Qingqiu’s reaction faded. “He’s smart and knows how to earn money. Since it’s a piece of meat, it’s not strange for him to bite it.”
Ye Jianyun looked at Ye Qingqiu for a while and sighed silently.

Seeing that there was no response other than the advertisement, Ye Qingqiu was distraught.
She wanted to say something to someone, but she realized that there was no one she could confide in.
Especially when it came to romance.
She opened the class group chat and scrolled through the list of members. She realized that other than the class monitor, Xu Wenxuan, who could still speak, they had not interacted much.
Just as she was about to leave in disappointment, Xu Wenxuan took the initiative to look for her.
“It’s rare to see you online. What have you been busy with recently?”
Ye Qingqiu replied, “I’m busy cutting carrots in the kitchen.”
Xu Wenxuan asked, “Are you cooking for your boyfriend?”
Ye Qingqiu replied, “On a whim.”
Xu Wenxuan said, “You…seem unhappy.”
Ye Qingqiu replied, “It’s a little annoying.”
Xu Wenxuan asked, “How can you be like this when you have a boyfriend?”
Ye Qingqiu paused for a while. “He’s very busy.”
Xu Wenxuan fell silent for a while before saying, “… There’s an acre of epiphyllum flowers blooming tonight at the flower cultivation base in the southern suburbs. Do you want to take a look? You can ask him out.”
Ye Qingqiu said, “I don’t want to ask him out.”
After a long while, Xu Wenxuan replied, “I’m meeting a few classmates. Do you want to take a breather?”
