After hanging up, Ye Zhiqing said to Tian Xin, “You’d better not provoke me in the future. You can have Zhou Wenting if you want. If you provoke me again, I’ll make you regret it.”

Tian Xin gritted her teeth in anger. While she was angry at her attitude, she was also jealous of her father’s praise for her.

When Ye Zhiqing passed by her, she said fiercely, “I heard that you have lung cancer. You won’t be able to live for much longer. Let’s see how proud you can be then.”

Ye Zhiqing stopped in her tracks. She didn’t expect her to know about this. She said, “I heard something too. You went to He Province Hospital last month?”

Tian Xin panicked and asked with a pale face, “How did you know?”

Ye Zhiqing laughed coldly and said, “That’s why I told you not to provoke me. Otherwise, no one will have an easy time. Oh right, thank you for the one million yuan.”

Tian Xin’s expression became distorted for a moment. She had really miscalculated this time. Not only did she not screw her over, but she even gave her a million yuan for nothing.

After she left, Tian Xin felt humiliated in front of everyone. She stood in the hall with a dejected expression and was about to leave when Wang Qiang grabbed her leg.

When he heard that he had been fired, he had been so scared that his legs went weak. It was not easy for him to enter this hospital. If he was fired because of this reason, which hospital or company would accept him in the future?

He hugged Tian Xin’s leg as if he was holding onto a life-saving straw. “Miss, I listened to you on this matter. You have to help me.”

Tian Xin’s expression turned even uglier. She kicked Wang Qiang away and said, “What has this got to do with me? You were the one who misled me. That’s why I misunderstood Ye Zhiqing.”

She and Dean Tian thought the same thing. There must be someone to take the blame for this matter. That person would be Wang Qiang.

Wang Qiang wanted to pester her but was pulled out by the security guard. The last look he gave Tian Xin was so dark that Tian Xin felt afraid and she quickly left.

This farce was witnessed by an old man. He was sitting in a wheelchair but he had an extraordinary aura. The people around him were all standing tall and straight. They looked like soldiers.

A young man standing behind him said, “I didn’t expect a small city like A City to be so chaotic. If that girl didn’t coincidentally call the dean of this hospital, she would have been doomed.”

The old man patted his hand and said, “You only saw the surface. That girl just now is quite impressive. Everything was under her control. Everything she did seemed simple, but the outcome would have been very different if she had made a mistake.”

The young man, not understanding what his second grandpa was saying, still looked confused.

The old man sighed and shook his head. “Forget it. You’re not the intelligent type.”

The young man shouted indignantly, “Second Grandpa—”

The old man smiled and looked at the place where Ye Zhiqing left from. She looked like an old friend of his.

“Ah Zheng, go and investigate that girl.”

Qin Zheng understood that his grandpa was serious, so he nodded.

Ye Zhiqing bumped into Zhou Wenting the moment she walked out of the hospital. Whether it was a coincidence or he did it on purpose, Ye Zhiqing didn’t want to bother about it. She wasn’t in the mood to quarrel with him now.

Zhou Wenting pulled her back and said, “Zhiqing, don’t hide from me.”

Ye Zhiqing sighed. She was really tired. She looked up at the sky and then at Zhou Wenting. “Aren’t you afraid that Tian Xin will see us together?”

Zhou Wenting subconsciously let go.

“Zhiqing, I still like you. Tian Xin is too domineering. I still can’t forget you, so as long as Tian Xin doesn’t find out, we can still be together.”

Ye Zhiqing looked at him in disbelief and said, “You want me to be your secret lover? Are you kidding me, Zhou Wenting? Have you lost your mind?”

Zhou Wenting was shocked by her rude words again, but he still said, “You don’t have a job now. I can support you.”

Ye Zhiqing crossed her arms and smiled. “I want to ask you how much money you can fork out. Don’t forget that you’re still living in my house. Or do you want to use Tian Xin’s money to support me?”

Zhou Wenting’s expression changed.

Ye Zhiqing seemed to have thought of something. She glanced at his lower body and chuckled. “You’d better take care of yourself first. If you have time, do more tests. As for me, you don’t have to worry about me.”

With that, she left.

Zhou Wenting stood there with a cold look on his face and scolded, “What right does she have to act so arrogant now?”
