Chapter 12: Come Here To Your Older Brother’s Side (4)

For a long time, that man’s death had made him (LC) a suspect for murder. People around saw him as the son who murdered his biological father.

After getting drunk at 5 a.m. the man had fallen to his death from his home on the fifth floor. No one knew if he was careless, or if someone had pushed him from behind. As a son who had been abused for a long time, he was suspected of committing a major crime in the eyes of his relatives and friends. Of course he didn’t push him down, but he couldn’t get rid of the accusations.

Li Che, who was in first grade at the time, went to the school teacher and arranged a canteen job for his mother. At half past six for breakfast at school, the helper had to be there at four, so his mother would leave at three. Then she would return home in the afternoon to rest, and before going to a late night snack shop to help until late at night.

His mother was busy with the two jobs she held outside and had no time to spare at home. And even upon returning home, she had no energy to deal with domestic affairs due to being too worried about her husband drinking more alcohol than he could hold. She would even try to sneakily mix in some water in the liquor to try and dilute it, so his body won’t be affected too severely. Moreover, she had no time to spare to take care of the other party once he’s drunk.

But Li Che took out all his savings, including the year end bonus he received from school, and gave it to that man to buy him top proof alcohol, so he could drink wantonly… Until his death.

When he heard the news that the other party fell to his death, he was indifferent. He had finally waited until this day. He even regretted it, why didn’t he do this earlier?

Li Che looked down, and those emotions disappeared in a flash.

Ye Yuqing got out of the car and shook his hands to thank him. “Bye bye, Thank you.”

Li Che didn’t say anything, he turned his car around and drove back. He knew that he wasn’t a good person. There were more than a thousand people who had cursed him to death the past few years, and five hundred were enough.

And this woman was someone between two worlds, she shouldn’t cross the boundary.

——

Han Chuan kept telling himself that he and Ye Yu Qing were over. This was an end that he had expected a long time ago, but when he really got to this point he became even unhappier.

Even if Ye Yuqing let him lose, he was still looking for a job to fight against his parents.

Now he could only go back to his father’s company to work.

Recently, as long as his mind was empty, he would think of her, and the frequency was getting higher and higher. He knew about Ye Yuqing’s Weibo, but the private message he had sent hadn’t been answered.

Her updated status, from just a few words, revealed that she had a new love. He knew Ye Yuqing’s character too well, it was impossible for such a thing to happen in such a short period of time. Although he never thought that the other party would be so unfazed, leaving his reputation discredited.

Han Chuan had Ye Yuqing’s new address for some time now, but he just didn’t dare to go. He happened to have something to deal with nearby today. So after turning around and waiting for the car to stop, he realized that it was her new home.

Han Chuan sat in the car for two hours, opening the window, one by one, smoking the whole pack of cigarettes. Girls constantly come in and out of the apartment, but none was her.

If it was her, he would definitely be able to recognize her immediately.

He sighed and prepared to go out of the parking space and leave. Just then, a car parked in an open space ten meters away.

The car door opened and there she was talking and laughing with a man. After getting out of the car, she bowed and waved goodbye to the guy.

As before, she sent herself away everyday, but now she had changed. The car turned around and left, Ye Yuqing still stood there and watched him leave, instead of going up to her apartment.

Han Chuan felt suffocated, like he was pierced by a needle. After the sharp pain, anger took over. He opened the car door and walked over.

Standing in front of her, looking at the face he hadn’t seen for a long time, Han Chuan’s anger dropped a little bit, and he unconsciously lowered his voice.

“Yuqing, did you see the message I sent? If you have… why didn’t you reply to me?”

Ye Yuqing was shocked but quickly got over it, she turned around and walked quickly towards the building. She had nothing to say to him.

But on the first floor corridor, Han Chuan blocked her way. “We haven’t seen each other for so long, are you leaving now?”

——

There were several children crossing the road, so Li Che slowed down. He looked in the rearview mirror out of boredom, when he noticed something that stunned him.

Ye Yuqing talking to another man. Are there other handsome guys she knows?

Even though he knew it was impossible, Li Che still turned around before the exit and drove back.

——

Stopping two meters away, Li Che asked: “What are you doing?”

Han Chuan cursed without turning his head. “I am having a talk with my girlfriend, it’s none of your business! Get out of here!”

Ye Yuqing’s eyes opened wide, how could he come back?

Girlfriend?

The corners of Li Che’s mouth curved upwards, he smiled and asked, “Are you going to continue talking to him or come here to your older brother’s side?”
