It was already past midnight and the red light in the rescue room was still shining. Shi Xingcan's hands were tightly twisted together and her petite body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"It's fine, aunty will be fine." Qin Yanmo placed his big hand on top of Shi Xingcan's hand, and relaxed after two seconds, "You should go to sleep first."

Shi Xingcan looked at the semicircular red mark on her hand. It was due to him being too nervous when signing the consent form. She compromised with the time home and married with Qu Zhong. This was all for his mother's health and survival. If something really happens … She didn't dare think about it.

"The strength of the anesthetic has not passed, and the patient will not be able to wake up for the time being. You can try calling her name, it will help a little. " The doctor nodded at Qin Yanmo, "Go and buy your wife some breakfast. Look at her pale lips."

"Good …" "Alright." Qin Yanmo was startled for a moment before reacting, he anxiously got Shi Xingcan to sit down, then quickly left the ward.

"Mom …" Can you hear me … " Shi Xingcan gently caressed her mother's hand. Because of the blood transfusion, there was a bit of edema, but her wrist was so thin that only skin and bones remained.

At that time, they lived in the time home, and they had to see Su Qing's expression in everything. Since they couldn't eat, they could only eat with the servants, and the servants didn't like them either. Due to Su Qing's obscene power, Shi Jun practically never cared about the mother and daughter pair.

"When I grow up, I'll definitely make a lot of money and buy a small house, and only the two of us will live there." She had told Yang Qi this wish countless of times. Yang Qi merely smiled and caressed her hair. But Shi Xingcan could tell from her mother's eyes, that her wish was also like that.

But when she was finally able to do that — not able to afford a house, but still able to rent — her mother suddenly checked for cancer. She didn't have the money to treat her mother's illness. To ask her father, the price was that she had to marry Qu Family. After that, she would have the chance to come to the time home's large table to eat with them and eat with Qu Zhong during holidays. Although she still had to suffer Su Qing's cold eyes and Shi Mengxi's ridicule.

Yang Qi's finger moved a little.

"Mom …" Shi Xingcan excitedly sat up and looked towards her mother, but Yang Qi still had not woken up. Yang Qi was a real beauty when she was young, but now that she was old and she had been tormented by illness, she could still see the charm of her youth.

Qin Yanmo walked into the ward, carrying a few bags, "There's nothing delicious around here, I just bought a few randomly, I can only make do and eat them."

Seeing that his mother was alright, Shi Xingcan finally felt a sense of hunger, and he relaxed. She watched as Qin Yanmo placed all the food onto the table, one by one. Only then did she realize how "casually bought" this was. He may have bought all the breakfast shops in the neighborhood.

"Thank you, thank you so much." She looked at Qin Yanmo seriously, "I will pay you back, although I am really short on money right now … "But I will find a way to return it."

When he thought about the number of calls that he had received unhappily during his leave of absence, Shi Xingcan subconsciously lowered his head when he said this.

"You don't need to return it." Qin Yanmo's voice sounded very generous, "I just hope that you can enjoy your life."

"No …" Shi Xingcan still wanted to say something, but Qin Yanmo's face instantly enlarged in front of her. He leaned over and kissed Shi Xingcan's lips.

But Qin Yanmo did not kiss his deeply, "I don't want to see you worried." With that, he retreated, "Eat your food."

"When aunty recovers a bit more, you can go back to N City to work." Halfway through, Qin Yanmo suddenly said.

"Huh?" Shi Xingcan was stunned, she never thought that she would still have the chance to return before giving birth to Qu Zhong.

"Yes, go back. You can enjoy life there. Moreover, it is better for Aunt to be taken care of in a nursing home than in time home. " He looked at Shi Xingcan's face seriously, "There's me, don't be afraid."

Yang Qi only woke up in the evening. Shi Xingcan stayed in the hospital for a few days. Seeing that his mother was recovering quickly, she felt at ease and decided to return to N City. She took a cab back to the villa Qu Zhong had given her, intending to take her luggage.

"I've been waiting for you!" Just as he walked downstairs, a woman suddenly jumped out from the shadows and shouted at Shi Xingcan. Shi Xingcan almost cried out in fear. After calming herself down, she realized that this woman was Qu Zhong's lover, Han Yue.

"What's the matter?" She didn't want to get entangled with Han Yue too much.

"Ha!" Yet you pretend to be innocent, who knows how shady you are behind all this! " Han Yue scolded.

"Be more respectful when you speak, or I'll call the security guards." Even if Shi Xingcan had a good temper, she wouldn't be able to endure others scolding him like that.

"Call security? Is this house yours? " Han Yue sneered, "This is Qu Zhong's house!"

"I am Qu Zhong's wife, who are you to him?" Shi Xingcan replied calmly.

Han Yue was startled. What she couldn't stand the most was for others to say that she didn't have a proper identity, "I am the mother of Qu Zhong's child! It's his true love! " She paused for a moment, "Moreover, Qu Zhong and I were together even before we got married! Now that you, as a junior, have stepped into the room, you still have the nerve to stand here and talk big? " She used two idioms in a row, looking very pleased with herself.

"Since Qu Zhong truly loves you, why doesn't he marry you? Instead of marrying me? "Why wouldn't he dare to rebel against the arranged marriage for you?"

"You —" Han Yue was at a loss for words. "Don't be so shameless! Qu Zhong didn't even bother to look at you, you kept thinking of seducing him! "

"Miss Han, don't just empty words —"

"Ha!" Stop quibbling! I already know about you and Qu Zhong eating outside! "

"What?" Shi Xingcan frowned, "When did I start eating with him?"

"The restaurant's waiter said it's the time home's Miss." Han Yue was proud, "What are you still pretending for?"

Shi Xingcan was confused. Why did Shi Mengxi want to eat with Qu Zhong?

"Even if that's the case, why would I eat with my husband?"

"You-you're shameless!" Han Yue was flustered and exasperated, she angrily walked towards her and swung her arms as though she was going to beat her up. She wore a pair of thin and tall heels that were over ten centimeters taller than Shi Xingcan's by a head.

Just then, a hand grabbed Han Yue's arm and pushed her back. Han Yue screamed in shock and retreated a few steps before she managed to stabilize her body so that she would not fall.

"I can make Qu Family's company go bankrupt, and have Qu Zhong's father threaten to force you to leave this city." Qin Yanmo's face was cold and indifferent, "Do your best, although I don't beat women, towards mad dogs who bite others, I will not be soft-hearted."

"You …" When Han Yue saw this man who had used a fork to nearly prick her eyes while eating, he was so frightened that her voice became softer by half, but she still braced herself and said, "What does this have to do with you!?"

"I saw it. It has something to do with me." Qin Yanmo was too lazy to waste words with her, "Why aren't you leaving yet?"

Qin Yanmo's aura became stronger, and he took a step back: "It's fine to leave! However, Shi Xingcan, let me tell you this — if you dare seduce my … "She stopped," If you dare seduce my lover again, how about this? Or do you dare seduce your husband again?

"If you dare seduce Qu Zhong again, I won't rest until you're done!"

"If you dare to threaten Shi Xingcan again, if you dare to say another word to her, I'll make you disappear completely." Qin Yanmo took another step forward, "Scram!"

Han Yue did not dare say anything, glared at Shi Xingcan angrily, and anxiously turned to leave. Her feet slipped and she almost fell to the ground. She didn't dare to make a sound as she stood up and continued walking.

"Why are you here?" Shi Xingcan smiled at him gratefully.

"To help you carry your luggage." The corner of Qin Yanmo's mouth rose slightly.

"Huh?" Shi Xingcan was startled.

"Coincidentally, I have to go to N City for some business these few days, so I can bring you over." Qin Yanmo laughed.

"Oh …"

"What is it? You seem very happy? "

"Where …" Shi Xingcan quickly explained, "I was just surprised, thank you Chairman Qin."

"Thank me for what?" Qin Yanmo was a little dissatisfied, "Although I'm not your brother-in-law, but at least we can be considered as friends, right? Or do you want to draw a clear line between yourself and everyone who wants to woo you? "

"No …" Shi Xingcan shyly lowered her head. Since he had already said so, then there was nothing left for him to say.

At the same time, a farce was also happening in time home. Su Qing stood barefooted in Shi Jun's study room, her hair all over the place, her various documents strewn all over the floor.

"Shi Jun! Is this how you treat your daughter? Are you still human!? " Her voice was close to screaming, and the whole villa could hear her clearly. Shi Mengxi was not home, so the servants were all hiding on the first floor, not daring to make a sound.

"Calm down …" Shi Jun said as he picked up the document. There was a contract worth tens of millions of dollars that couldn't be broken!

"How can I calm down? You agree to have that brat surnamed Qin collude with that son of a b * tch? He is your daughter's husband! " Su Qing said as she cried, "Wuu... Pity our family's Meng Xi … He hasn't gotten married yet … "She's going to be a widow soon …"

"Then tell me what you want me to do!" Shi Jun could not stand women crying the most.

"If she dares to meet Qin Yanmo again, I'll kill her mother!"
