In the blink of an eye, it was already the weekend.

This was the first time Lin Qingrou had asked to visit the Ye Family, so Ye Qingming was especially attentive.

When the two of them arrived at the Ye family mansion, Ye Qingming was still very worried and asked, "How about we just forget about it? There actually is no need for us to go there. Otherwise, we won't have a good time again."

Lin Qingrou smiled and shook her head, comforting him, "Don't worry, I won't. I don't think they will either."

Ye Qingming could not refuse, and in his heart, he really hoped that Lin Qingrou could live peacefully with his family. Thus, when he saw how certain she was, he didn't stop her.

However, contrary to their expectations, Ye Qingzhi was the only one in the house. According to the usual practice, this was the exact time when Ye Qingzhi was reciting the Buddhist scriptures.

Lin Qingrou looked at Ye Qingzhi holding the buddhist beads with a devout expression, and couldn't help but snort in her heart. This was because no matter how much she thought about it, she just couldn't understand why such a sinister and vicious person like Ye Qingzhi would believe in Buddha. Could it be that she thought that just reciting a few Buddhist scriptures would reduce the debt she owed!

"Sit down." Ye Qingzhi glanced at them and lightly said.

Ye Qingming looked around and asked, "Where's Quan Wei?" Big brother hasn't come back recently? "

"No, Quan Wei went out to do some work."

Ye Qingming nodded and reached for a glass of water. At this moment, when he saw that there was no one in his house, he felt somewhat empty. Occasionally, he would look at the pomegranates on the table, but he couldn't help but pick them up and play with them for a while.

She looked at Ye Qingzhi and could not help but ask, "Big Sis is actually interested in the Buddhist scriptures?"

Ye Qingzhi did not say anything. Only after a long while did she reply without a sound from her nose.

Lin Manrou knew that she did not welcome him nor was she willing to see him. She was even unwilling to be in the same room as him. Fortunately, Lin Qingrou did not care about this. At this moment, she was smiling as she stared at Ye Qingzhi's back. In her heart, she was thinking about what it would be like if Ye Qingzhi were to end up in such a miserable state.

After a while, Ye Qingzhi was finally willing to stand up. She glanced at Lin Qingrou, then said to Ye Qingzhi, "Go back to the study room first, I have something to say to Miss Lin."

Ye Qingming was puzzled. "What is it that I can't know?"

Ye Qingzhi smiled, "Rest assured, I will definitely not make things difficult for Miss Lin. I just want to talk to her about your life. After all, we're going to get married, so we should get to know each other. "

Ye Qingming looked at Lin Qingrou inquiringly. Seeing this, Lin Qingrou smiled at him, indicating that he should not worry about her.

"Alright, then I'll go up first. Call me if you need anything." Ye Qingming said as he walked up the stairs to his study. As he left, he couldn't help but turn around to take a look.

Lin Qingrou watched as Ye Qingzhi walked towards her. The muscles all over her body tightened as she slowly straightened her upper body. She seemed to think that Ye Qingming would immediately receive Ye Qingzhi's mocking and forceful treatment after he left, but to her surprise, Ye Qingzhi's expression was calm. In the end, she slowly sat down and put down the buddhist beads, she first pressed her temples, then she said to Lin Manrou, "Since things have already come to this, I do not object to your marriage. "However, I have taken care of his name since he was young. He has some habits and likes, so I still have to tell you one by one. This way, his life will be more at ease."

Lin Qingrou nodded and listened obediently. At this moment, however, her heart was pounding. She did not think that Ye Qingji would be so kind as to help her.

Sure enough, Ye Qingzhi pointed to a few pomegranates on the tea table and earnestly said, "Qingming really likes eating pomegranates, especially pomegranate juice. Every year when the pomegranate first went on the market, I would buy it for him to eat, but this year, I can finally give you the job. "

Lin Qingrou looked at the huge pomegranates and could not help but ask, "He likes this?"

Ye Qingzhi did not speak a word. Instead, she looked at Lin Qingrou with a kind gaze, as if the person who had threatened Lin Qingrou before was not her. Ye Qingzhi gently picked one up and gave it to her, "Yes, so today you should start by making pomegranate juice."

The two of them walked into the kitchen one after the other. Lin Qingrou picked up a small knife with pomegranate skin. Just as she was about to touch the skin, Ye Qingzhi suddenly took the knife from her hand.

"You youngsters just don't care. Shouldn't you make things for your husband with your heart? A knife tool would damage the taste of the pomegranate, and it would be a waste of a lot of time, so I'm doing it for your own good.

Lin Qingrou didn't know whether to laugh or cry as she looked at the pomegranate in her hands. Good, she finally understood Ye Qingzhi's' good intentions'. Since it was impossible to use force, she had no choice but to use force. In short, Ye Qingzhi's target had never changed, and that was to chase Lin Qingrou away.

She held the pomegranate in her hand. In the end, she used her fingers to peel off the seeds one by one and put them into a bowl.

"That should be enough, right?" Lin Qingrou asked.

Ye Qingzhi smiled as she shook her head. She then took out a few more dishes from the fridge and placed them in front of her. "There are a lot of guests today, so I might as well make more."

Lin Qingrou restrained her anger and said, "... Heh, alright, then do some more. " She pursed her lips, washed the pomegranate completely, peeled off its skin one by one, and took out the pomegranate seeds.

Time passed minute after minute, and in the blink of an eye, two hours had already passed.

Lin Qingrou looked at the pile of pomegranate seeds in front of her numbly, but she did not feel any sense of accomplishment. Instead, her waist and legs felt sore and her head felt dizzy.

She couldn't help but think in her heart, "Ye Qingming, why do you insist on eating pomegranate?" She was grumbling in her heart when she heard the doorbell at the front door suddenly ring.

"Big Sis."

"Oh, it's Rhonin. Come in, come in. I'll go call your name. "

Lin Qingrou turned her head to look and saw Ye Qingzhi hurriedly run upstairs to pull Ye Qingming over after welcoming Quan Wei and Xing Ruonan inside. Just as she was hesitating about whether she should leave now, she suddenly saw Ye Qingming's expression change. He asked Ye Qingmei: "Sister, you did it on purpose, right? It's not like you don't know who's at home today, but why did you get Quan Wei to call her over? "

Lin Qingrou stopped and stood in the kitchen, quietly listening to the conversation outside.

Ye Qingzhi said, "You were once classmates, but now you can be friends. What's more, Ruonan doesn't have any relatives or friends with us. Isn't it good to find a guest at home on the weekends?"

"Qingming, if you don't want to see me, I can leave. Elder sister, I … I think I'll go first, I shouldn't have come. " Xing Ruo Nan said in a low voice.

Ye Qingming didn't say anything for a long time. After a while, he helplessly said, "Forget it, since you're here, don't leave."

Lin Qingrou's heart sank. She could only hate Ye Qingzhi for instigating things from the bottom of her heart. For a moment, she was thrown into disarray. However, after she looked around and thought about it, she took advantage of the fact that the people in the living room hadn't recovered from their awkwardness and walked over to Ye Qingzhi while holding a large bowl of pomegranate that she had just peeled.

"Big Sis, I've already prepared these pomegranates. Can you take a look?"

Just as Lin Qingrou finished speaking, everyone turned to look at him. At this moment, when Quan Wei saw Lin's pitiful appearance, she could not help but burst out laughing. However, because of Qin Yang's matter, she did not add insult to injury. Ye Qingzhi felt a little unnatural. She said half-heartedly, "It's fine."

As for Ye Qingming, he finally realized what Lin Qingrou had been doing all afternoon.

He looked at Lin Qingrou, suppressing his anger. "Why are you doing this?"

"I thought you liked this one, so …"

"How do you know I like this?!"

"Big Sis told me personally. I don't think she was wrong. We are family, Big Sis would never harm me, and even less so you."

Ye Qingming grabbed the bowl from Lin Qingrou's hands and placed it heavily on the tea table. He looked at Ye Qingzhi, unable to contain his anger, "Who told you to cook it, eat it yourself!"

With that, Ye Qingming pulled Lin Qingrou's hand and angrily left the Ye family.

Seeing Ye Qingming leave, Quan Wei said, "See, I told you not to mention about the pomegranate. Big Sis, you're too worried." She sat down on the sofa and picked up a few pomegranates.

Ye Qingzhi's eyes flashed. Her eyes immediately filled with resentment.

As for Xing Ruonan, who had been standing to the side the entire time, she was currently trembling with fear. She didn't dare to look at Ye Qingzhi or Quan Wei. She could only stand on the ground by herself like an invisible person.

As for Ye Qingming, who was already far away from home, he did not walk too far away with Lin Qingrou. Instead, they arrived at the lakeside first.

"There's no need for you to have such a huge reaction, right?" Lin Qingrou couldn't help but to ask.

Ye Qingming turned around and looked at her, apologizing, "I didn't notice it just now, and now you're feeling wronged again."

Lin Qingrou shook her head. She understood that there was no reason for them to take revenge on each other, so she could only speak up for Ye Qingzhi, "How could that be? Big Sis didn't make things difficult for me. I was the one who didn't do things cleanly."

Ye Qingming leaned on the railing of the lake, his eyes gradually becoming emptier. He took a deep breath and said, "I don't like eating pomegranates, or even hate them." However, during my time in university, I had my family make her some pomegranate juice because of Xing Ruonan. After a while, they all thought it was because I liked eating pomegranates. "

"As a matter of fact, my own dislike of pomegranates should rank first among all the fruits."

Lin Qingrou could not help but laugh. She crossed her arms and looked at him, "So, you're explaining to me? "Are you saying that even if Xing Ruonan appeared once more, it would be impossible for you to do the same?"

Ye Qingming crossed his arms and looked at Lin Qingrou curiously. "You're not even angry?"

"Why should I be angry?" She didn't think so.

Ye Qingming smiled mockingly. With a weird tone, he said, "That's true. I don't think you would care about that."

Lin Qingrou did not understand, "What do you want to say with that tone?"

Ye Qingming asked with a smile that was not a smile: "What does that mean? In any case, it's not like we're willing to give each other our lives. We know what each other's intentions are, so there's no need for us to talk about matters of jealousy. "

Lin Qingrou stared at him in disbelief, not knowing why he would say such words.

"You …" Just as she spoke, Ye Qingming's phone suddenly rang.

"Qing Ming, where are you now? "Hurry up and come home! Xing Ruonan fainted at home!"

Even though Lin Qingrou was far away, she could still hear Ye Qingzhi crying over the phone. She immediately felt that something was amiss, so she quickly caught up to Ye Qingming.

"What are you doing here?"

"See if there's anything you can do to help."

The two of them didn't go too far, so they arrived at home in just 5 minutes.

The moment Lin Qingrou entered, he saw Xing Ruonan on the ground. Both Quan Wei and Ye Qingzhi were squatting on the ground while kneeling on the ground. Their faces were filled with fear and unease. Therefore, she couldn't tell whether it was the three of them acting together or if it was real. However, she still called the emergency room number. After all, she wasn't a doctor, so she could only stand by and watch as Ye Qingming and Ye Qingzhi took some safe first-aid measures against Xing Ruonan.

Lin Qingrou couldn't help but look at Quan Wei. Suddenly, he saw her strange expression, as if she was angry from being separated. This was completely different from what Lin Qingrou had seen when she entered the room earlier.

She followed her gaze and finally understood the crux of the problem. It turned out that Ye Qingming was currently looking at Xing Ruonan with a face full of worry and concern. Even Lin Qingrou, who was watching from the sidelines, felt jealous.

At first, Lin Qingrou thought that it was ridiculous, but suddenly, she was jolted awake. Could it be that Quan Wei likes Ye Qingming?! She felt her hair stand on end, as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

Lin Qingrou couldn't help but look at Quan Wei, confirming her position even more. The way she looked at Ye Qingming was not what a little sister should look like because she was attached to her brother. This was the possessive desire a woman had for the person she loved!

Since Quan Wei liked Ye Qingming, Ye Qingzhi probably didn't know about him. Otherwise, she definitely wouldn't sit idly by. Now, it was probably Quan Wei who wanted to use Ye Qingzhi to get rid of him first, and then sow discord and get rid of Xing Ruonan. Honestly speaking, whether it was Xing Ruo Nan, himself, or even Ye Qingzhi, all three of them had been taken advantage of by Quan Wei!

Lin Qingrou felt a lingering fear. Luckily, she was not pushed to the extreme back then. Otherwise, she would not even know that she had used him.

After about ten minutes, the ambulance finally arrived. A few emergency nurses placed Xing Ruonan down and asked, "Who's the family member?"

Ye Qingming said without any hesitation, "I am, I was the one who saved you just now."

The nurse nodded and signaled Ye Qingming to follow the ambulance.

"Wait a minute!" Lin Qingrou suddenly called out to them.

"I'll go with you." "No," she said.

After saying that, Lin Qingrou looked at Ye Qingming. Seeing that he wasn't going to stop them, she followed him into the ambulance and went with them to the hospital.

When Ye Qingming and Lin Qingrou were waiting outside the emergency room, Lin Qingrou stole a glance at Ye Qingming and saw that he was frowning as he tightly pursed his lips, not saying a word.

Lin Qingrou looked at him, unconsciously feeling sad. She actually stretched out her hand and patted the back of his hand as she comforted him, "She will be fine. Don't worry too much."

Ye Qingming was expressionless as he blankly said, "When she was in university, she was in bad health. I thought she would be better for the upcoming school year, but I didn't expect her to be even worse than before."

As he spoke, Ye Qingming took out a bottle of medicine from Xing Ruonan's bag and passed it to Lin Wanrou.

"Vlafasin? What medicine is this? " Lin Qingrou asked.

Ye Qingming started to blame himself even more. His eyes started to turn red and he said with difficulty, "This is a medicine to cure depression. One of the side effects is fainting. That's why …"

"Depression...?"

Lin Qingrou couldn't believe it. Xing Ruonan was actually depressed?! Then... Would Ye Qingming return to her side to take care of her, or even marry her?

She composed herself and asked tentatively, "Do you think she's depressed because of you?"

Ye Qingming shook his head and nodded.

Lin Qingrou broke out in a cold sweat.

"In that case, if you are responsible to her, I will withdraw."

When Ye Qingming heard Lin Qingrou's words, he suddenly came back to his senses. He rejected without hesitation, "I never said I wanted you to leave."

Lin Qingrou looked at Ye Qingming, not knowing what he was thinking about. Perhaps, even Ye Qingming himself didn't know what was in his heart.

Time slowly stopped and the air seemed to stop flowing. The atmosphere was in a stalemate. No one spoke, nor did they try to explain themselves. The entire world seemed to have turned into a vacuum, not allowing for even the slightest sound.

Lin Qingrou sat alone in the hallway, thinking about Ye Qingming, Xing Ruonan, Ye Qingming, and Quan Wei over and over again. However, the more she thought about it, the more confused she became. In the end, her head began to hurt and she felt dizzy.

At this moment, the doctor slowly walked out of the emergency room. Ye Qingming quickly went up to him.

"It's okay, the patient just has a little hypoglycemia, so there's no big problem. But... Are you the husband of the patient? " the doctor asked curiously.

Ye Qingming shook his head and asked, "But we are very good friends, and I am also a doctor, you can tell me."

The doctor told him not to be nervous and explained, "It's like this. We found out that the patient is already pregnant for three months, so you'd better inform her family."

Now it was Lin Man and Ye Qing Ming's turn to look at each other, and Lin Man Rou's heart gradually settled down, and she could not help but let out a sigh of relief.

With that, the doctor left to save the next patient, leaving Lin Man and Ye Qingming sitting there in a daze.

Ye Qingming could not help but sneer. His sneer turned into a wry smile, and his face gradually became numb and depressed.

Lin Qingrou was speechless.

"What are you thinking?" Ye Qingming suddenly asked.

"Nothing, I just felt it was a bit sudden." Lin Qingrou told the truth.

"Do you find me laughable? No, that's not right. It should be very pitiful, right?" He seemed to be talking to himself.

"Don't be like this, what does this have to do with you?" Lin Qingrou couldn't help comforting him.

Ye Qingming suddenly raised his voice. "You really don't care about what happened between Xing Ruonan and me?"

"Why should I care about things between you? What happened to you today? Always asking these strange questions! " The more she spoke, the angrier she got. Even her hands were trembling at Weiwei.

"The patient's family can come in to visit." The nurse said from the ward.

As soon as he finished, Ye Qingming immediately walked towards the ward, leaving Lin Qingrou standing there in a daze. However, Lin Qingrou didn't care about this. She followed him to the sickroom and saw that Xing Ruonan had already woken up and was weakly lying on the bed.

"Are you feeling better?" Lin Qingrou ignored Ye Qingming as she walked up to Xing Ruonan's side and asked.

Xing Yumiao nodded. His face was pale and weak as he said, "I'm fine. I'm much better now."

"That's good. Do you know that you are pregnant?" Lin Qingrou asked.

Xing Ruonan's expression hardened. She turned her face to the other side and said, "I know. I knew it all along."

Ye Qingming looked at her in surprise. "You already knew?"

Xing Ruonan looked at him with a cold smile. "What? Is there a problem?" Can't I bear someone else's child? "

Lin Qingrou quickly advised, "You've just escaped from danger. Don't get too worked up. Why don't we head out first? You should calm down by yourself."

As she spoke, she gestured for Ye Qingming to leave with her.

"Wait a moment." Xing Ruonan called out to Lin Qingrou.

"I want to talk to you alone."
