As soon as Ye Qingqiu finished speaking, the room fell silent.
Sunlight filtered in through the curtains, and fine dust floated in the air.
After some time, Li Tingshen suddenly chuckled.
Ye Qingqiu frowned immediately.
Li Tingshen sat up straight and wrapped his arms around her waist. He looked at her with his dark eyes. There was a smile on his face as his fingers caressed her face gently. His voice was extremely gentle.
!!
“You said that you still love me.”
Ye Qingqiu pursed her red lips and remained silent.
Li Tingshen’s lips twitched and his slender fingers lifted her chin. Her beautiful face and scarlet lips gave off an irresistible temptation to kiss.
He really didn’t hold back and kissed her.
Ye Qingqiu lowered her gaze, her eyelashes fluttering uncontrollably.
“You’re right. There are lives between us and we can’t be together with a clear conscience. But I want to be with you.”
Ye Qingqiu closed her eyes and circled around before returning to her original spot.
Li Tingshen retracted his hand from her face and looked at her with a faint smile.
“What if I say I’m willing to return it?”
Ye Qingqiu was stunned. “Return what?”
“Life.”
With just one word, Ye Qingqiu’s mind went blank.
What fate?
How could he return it?
“What are you talking about?” she asked, her voice trembling unconsciously.
“There are two lives between us. If I return the favor, will you agree to be with me?”
Ye Qingqiu was completely stunned as the blood drained from her face.
Li Tingshen smiled at her and couldn’t help but caress her cheek.
“Speak, Qingqiu. Isn’t that right? As long as I return their lives, can you agree to be with me?”
Ye Qingqiu shook her head and took a long time to react. She reached out to push his hand away.
“Are you threatening me? You think I won’t agree to such a ridiculous thing, so you’re saying that? Alright, yes! If you still have to repay me, I’ll agree to be with you. So? How are you going to repay me? How are you going to repay me?”
Ye Qingqiu was furious.
He had used her feelings for him time and time again to achieve any goal.
Did it mean that as long as she loved him, he would have a way to make her give in?
Li Tingshen’s lips twitched and a faint smile appeared in his eyes.
“You’re not allowed to go back on your word.”
With that, he leaned over and kissed her again.
With a relaxed expression, he pressed her back into the bed and kissed her tightly.
Ye Qingqiu frowned.
‘So?’
He was just saying that.
After kissing her until her entire body was red, Li Tingshen let go of her in satisfaction. Then, he got off the bed and entered the bathroom.
When she came out again, Ye Qingqiu had already changed into her home clothes.
He came over and took her hand. “I’ll bring you down for breakfast.”
Ye Qingqiu glanced at him indifferently. “This is my house.”
Li Tingshen only smiled without saying anything.
Just as the two of them walked out of the staircase, Ye Qingqiu stopped.
Li Tingshen turned to look at her. “What’s wrong?”
“Linlin, it’s time to wake up.”
A snort of laughter came from downstairs. “When you get up, the child will let you starve to death.”
The two of them looked downstairs. Ye Lixun was carrying Linlin and Linlin was holding a bottle of milk.
Seeing the two of them, his dark eyes lit up.
“Mom and Dad… shall we get up together?”
Ye Qingqiu was speechless.
Li Tingshen didn’t think much of it and led Ye Qingqiu downstairs.
She walked to Ye Lixun and touched Linlin’s head.
“Do you still want breakfast?”
Linlin shook his head. “No, Linlin has already eaten an octopus intestine and an egg. I’ll be full after drinking this.”
“Then let me bring you out to play later.”
Ye Lixun frowned. “Why? We haven’t even met for five minutes and you want to chase me away?”
“Do you want to bring him along to observe?”
Ye Lixun’s face darkened.
Ye Qingqiu flung Li Tingshen’s hand away. “What nonsense are you spouting!”
Li Tingshen smiled and pulled her into his embrace again.
“Have breakfast.”
After Linlin finished her milk, Ye Lixun brought him out.
Since Li Tingshen had said that, he must have something to say to Qingqiu.
So far, there didn’t seem to be anything between them that Linlin could hear.
It was obvious that there were contradictions.
Li Tingshen personally cooked breakfast.
Although her smile was faint, the atmosphere in the restaurant seemed much more relaxed.
Even though Ye Qingqiu was expressionless and eating her breakfast coldly.
There was some salt and pepper placed beside the two boiled eggs. The sandwiches were also fresh and beautiful. The vegetables were green and red, and they were light and suitable.
Everything was just what she liked.
After dinner, Ye Qingqiu put down her chopsticks and looked at the man sitting opposite her.
“You’re full?”
Ye Qingqiu asked, “What else do you have to say to me?”
Li Ting narrowed his eyes and didn’t say anything. He stood up, put away the plate in front of Ye Qingqiu, and turned to enter the kitchen.
Ye Qingqiu sat on the chair and closed her eyes. She stood up and walked into the kitchen.
Looking at Li Tingshen bending down to wash the dishes, she pursed her lips. “Li Tingshen.”
“You’re so anxious to wait for an answer. You seem more eager to be together than me.”
He placed the last plate on the draining rack and turned to smile at her.
Ye Qingqiu frowned. “I just don’t want to waste time with you.”
“Yeah.”
Li Tingshen wiped his hands with a clean towel and turned to look at her.
“I might have to apologize to you.”
Ye Qingqiu lost her patience. “If you have nothing else to say, get lost.”
Li Tingshen fell silent. “Yes.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned sideways and pulled out a fruit knife from the kitchen counter.
Ye Qingqiu’s expression changed and she took a step back.
What he had just said in the room suddenly popped up in his mind. When he saw the knife, he felt as though he had been drenched in cold water.
“What are you doing?”
“Do you dare to make a move?”
Li Tingshen looked at her calmly and seriously. “If you’re afraid, I’ll do it. The nature is the same, right?”
Ye Qingqiu shook her head with a pale face and her voice trembled. “No… Li Tingshen… How dare you!”
“I wouldn’t dare.” Li Tingshen smiled. “But I don’t want to delay any longer. Sorry, although it will scare you, I have to do this. This is probably the only way I can think of.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he spun the hilt of his knife and stabbed it into his chest.
Ye Qingqiu’s trembling hands stopped in mid-air. Her eyes widened as the blade sank into her chest.
She froze on the spot. It was as if she had stopped breathing and her heart had stopped beating. Her blood had stopped flowing and her body was stiff and cold.
Blood stained his white shirt and his thin lips turned pale. He supported himself with one hand on the counter.
He raised his other hand and pulled Ye Qingqiu into his embrace.
“You’re not the original sin.”
He pressed his forehead against hers and his eyelashes fluttered gently.
“It’s all my fault. I provoked Qin Hao. I couldn’t get rid of Liang Xuer. I wanted to send you to the judicial bureau. I sent you to the detention center. I sued you. I was the one who insisted on falling in love with you despite Mother’s warning. I didn’t handle everything well. It’s all my fault. It has nothing to do with you.”
Ye Qingqiu finally blinked and took a deep breath.
“Don’t be afraid, there’s a high chance that I won’t die. I just want to be with you… If I die, I’ll lose everything… I’ll return your life to you when I recover…”
In the end, Li Tingshen bent down in pain and knelt on one knee. His breathing gradually became heavy.
As the blood dripped onto the ground, Ye Qingqiu knelt on the ground slowly. She didn’t know what to do with the blood.
His large hand suddenly grabbed her wrist and Li Tingshen’s voice trembled.
“You promised me. Don’t go back on your word…”
Ye Qingqiu was stunned and lost all consciousness. She stared at him blankly for a few seconds before scrambling to her feet and running to the living room to make a call.
Her hand trembled as she dialed.
“Hey, this is Qingqiu Manor. Someone has been stabbed… Help… Help…”
Just as Ye Qingqiu finished speaking, the siren of an ambulance sounded from outside.
The sound of the door closing followed and the door opened. The paramedics rushed in and looked at Ye Qingqiu.
“Where is the patient?”
Ye Qingqiu threw the phone down. “The kitchen… is in the kitchen!”
The few of them ran in the direction Ye Qingqiu was pointing.
She ran after him, but someone strode in.
Bo Jinchuan.
His face was dark and cold.
His gaze was cold and terrifying.
But she didn’t say anything and walked quickly to the kitchen.
Li Tingshen had lost consciousness.
Bo Jinchuan asked coldly, “Are your injuries serious?”
“Heavy.”
Ye Qingqiu’s face turned pale again.
Bo Jinchuan asked, “Can you save her?”
“We’ll do our best.”
The doctor seemed to have a tacit understanding with Bo Jinchuan. He asked directly and answered simply.
“If she’s gone, you might as well stop panting.”
Everyone carried Li Tingshen into the ambulance.
Ye Qingqiu followed with a pale face.
When Ye Lixun heard the commotion, she carried Linlin back and saw someone being sent to the ambulance from afar.
Immediately after, Ye Qingqiu came out with six souls.
“Qingqiu…”
“Mommy…”
Ye Qingqiu didn’t respond to their shouts.
She stared at Li Tingshen in a daze.
The car left with an alarm.
Bo Jinchuan walked out.
Linlin said, “Uncle…”
Bo Jinchuan was speechless.
Ye Lixun carried Linlin and walked over quickly. “What’s going on? Is that… Li Tingshen?”
“Yes, let the child go too. After all, he’s his father. She might even be able to send him off.”
Ye Lixun was speechless.
