Qin Zheng glanced at him and suddenly felt that that woman’s rude appearance was much better than this hospital dean’s flattering face. He snorted coldly and entered the ward.

Dean Tian, who had been snubbed, didn’t dare to say anything. He could only guess what kind of relationship Ye Zhiqing had with the Qin family. If he remembered correctly, Ye Zhiqing was an orphan, right? What kind of relationship could a powerless orphan have with a top-notch family in the capital?

Qin Zheng entered the ward and saw Second Master Qin, who was looking out the window. From this direction, he could see Ye Zhiqing walking out of the hospital. The expression on his face was hard to guess, but he seemed to have returned to the high-spirited Second Master of the Qin family.

Qin Zheng, who had been afraid of him since he was a child, suddenly didn’t dare to go forward. Seeing that the old man didn’t move, he carefully called out, “Second Grandpa.”

Second Master Qin retracted his gaze and looked at Qin Zheng. He said, “You’re already so old.”

Qin Zheng froze. He had a feeling that his words contained another meaning.

Second Master Qin returned to being that calm old man. Only then did Qin Zheng let out a sigh of relief.

…

On the way home, Ye Zhiqing was in a daze. She kept thinking about what that old man had said. He had said a lot, but now, she could only recall him saying that she was very likely to be his daughter. When he asked for a paternity test, she ran away. She didn’t dare to. She didn’t know if it was because she was afraid that this was true, or if it was just a misunderstanding in the end.

She only knew that she didn’t want anything to break the status quo.

So she escaped.

A sneaky figure followed behind her. When they passed by an alley, Ye Zhiqing, who had no mood to observing the surroundings, was pulled into the alley. Her mouth was covered by a handkerchief. After a while, she fainted on the ground.

That person kicked her angrily and grabbed her to get into a van.

The van quickly drove out of the city center and arrived at a warehouse in the suburbs. Ye Zhiqing was dragged out of the car and thrown into the warehouse. That person smiled fiercely and left her there.

When Ye Zhiqing woke up, it was already after dark. The completely unfamiliar environment made her panic. Then, she forced herself to calm down and observed the surroundings. She had never been to this place before and did not know if it was still in A City. She did not even know who the person who had kidnapped her was. She was confused by the current situation.

Footsteps came from outside the warehouse. Ye Zhiqing quickly picked up a stone from the ground and stood behind the metal door. As the door to the warehouse opened, she slammed the brick in her hand down at the person.

That person was hit accidentally, but her strength only broke his head a little. That person was even more furious and slapped her to the ground.

“Ah…” Ye Zhiqing cried out in pain. Only then did she see that the person in front of her was Guo Aiqiang!

“What exactly do you want to do?” she asked as she retreated.

Guo Aiqiang touched the wound on his head with a gloomy expression and sneered. “Of course I want you to die with me.”

Ye Zhiqing was stunned and said, “Do you want money? I can give it to you, as long as you let me go.”

When Guo Aiqiang heard the mention of money, he slapped it. “F*ck, you b*tch, how dare you mention money to me? You guys clearly promised me that you would give me money yesterday. Today, your man and his men sealed the orphanage. My mother was locked up in the police station and was going to be sentenced to death. Do you know that? If I didn’t run fast, even I would have been locked up.”

The more he spoke, the more agitated he became. He grabbed Ye Zhiqing’s hair and pulled her in front of him. He said fiercely, “There are wanted policemen everywhere outside now. Since you guys won’t let me have it easy, I’ll kill you with me.”

Only then did Ye Zhiqing know what had happened. She did not expect Gu Mingcheng to have so much power that he actually sealed the orphanage within a day. Facing Guo Aiqiang’s question, she sneered and said, “Is it my fault that you’re sentenced to death? It only means that you guys broke the law in the first place.”

Guo Aiqiang’s expression became awkward for a moment. Today, the police had come and discovered the drugs that he had hidden in the room.. However, if it wasn’t for this sl*t, why would the police come to him?
