C102

It was still the same quiet night, and the same breathing of two people.

Lin Manrou turned her head to look at Ye Qingming. The emotions from yesterday were gone from her eyes. It was because she instantly understood that she and Ye Qingming were destined to be enemies for the rest of their lives.

All of a sudden, a sudden feeling of sorrow and despair attacked her heart, taking away all her pity and hope, leaving behind only a thick layer of haze and gloom.

Perhaps Ye Qingming had just had a dream. As he was half asleep and half awake, he gently embraced Lin Man in his arms and muttered: "No …" You can't go there, it's dangerous. "

Lin Qingrou looked at him coldly, as if she was just watching a harmless performance. Even when she felt the warmth of Ye Qingming's body, she did not budge an inch.

They slept like this for the entire night. It was not until the next morning that Ye Qingming gradually woke up to see Lin Qingrou sleeping in his arms.

She woke up slowly and smiled at him in the bright sunlight.

"Good morning."

Ye Qingming smiled and withdrew his arm.

Lin Qingrou could not help but apologize, "Why are you sleeping here, you should wake me up when you're not feeling well."

Ye Qingming did not mind at all, "I just woke up. I slept until dawn, but I didn't feel uncomfortable."

Lin Qingrou sat up and put on her clothes, then asked him, "Should we thank her for introducing me to her?"

Ye Qingming casually said, "It's alright, don't think too much into it. It shouldn't be difficult anyway. Furthermore, she has not been around recently. "

Lin Qingrou pretended not to know anything, "You're not here? "Where did she go?"

Ye Qingming blanked out for a moment, then asked, "You should know this better than me right? You work at her company, so you should know more than me."

Lin Manshou smiled, and blocked his arm, "Then how did you know she wasn't here?"

Ye Qingming was in the middle of changing his clothes, but she suddenly pulled him into her arms. After regaining her composure, she took the opportunity to press Ye Qingming under her and said with interest, "We are friends. Is it difficult to know about this?"

Lin Qingrou did not want to be outdone, her fingers brushed against the stubble on his chin, and she continued, "It's up to you, it's fine if you think I'm jealous, it's fine if you're curious, it's up to you."

Ye Qingming looked at her chest, which was partially covered by her pajamas. He asked with some confusion, "Are you really following me?"

At this moment, there was only a thin layer of cloth separating them. She could even feel the warm air that was still completely awake from her sleep.

Lin Man Rou Wei tried her best to escape from his body, but randomly grabbed a piece of clothing in front of her and raised her eyebrows, "Of course not."

Ye Qingming sat up and smiled while buttoning his shirt, "It's so early in the morning. It's really confusing."

Lin Qingrou sat down in front of the dressing table, stroking her hair and said, "Since you're at work today, I'm afraid you'll be late. Since you have to turn in your projects, you have to work overtime."

Ye Qingming looked at her face in the mirror. He still looked tired.

"If you're tired, then don't force yourself."

"How can that be?" Lin Qingrou rolled up her hair. Half of it was hanging down to her neck. There was a hint of laziness and flirtatiousness to it.

She turned around and looked at Ye Qingming, "This is a job you've found for me. If I were to slack off, wouldn't that be embarrassing?"

Ye Qingming smiled, agreeing with her words.

When she saw that he was still sitting there, she asked, "What's the matter? Aren't you in a hurry to go to work today? "

Ye Qingming smiled helplessly. He pointed to Lin Qingrou's clothes and said, "My shirt is on you, what should I do?"

Lin Qingrou looked at him, then at herself in the mirror, and her face turned red.

She immediately took off her shirt and handed it to Ye Qingming, grumbling, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Ye Qingming smiled without saying a word. After tidying up his clothes, he walked behind her. The two of them looked at each other in the mirror and remained silent for a long time. It was as if they were looking for traces of each other in the mirror.

After a long while, Ye Qingming nodded. As he stroked her hair, he couldn't help but kiss her on her collarbone.

Lin Qingrou stared blankly at herself in the mirror, her expression one of numbness and indifference, as if she were about to see through reality itself.

It was a feeling of numbness and Weiwei's pain.

Before Ye Qingming left, he told her, "Remember to call me during the second half. I'll pick you up."

When he was gone, she looked at her neck. As expected, there was a red mark on her collarbone.

Ye Qingming's imprint.

Lin Qingrou frowned, gritting her teeth. She took out many concealment ointments to try and cover up the small mark.

However, no matter how hard she tried, her skin only became redder and redder. There was nothing she could do.

Because of this, Lin Qingrou had no choice but to put on a turtleneck sweater, covering the area as big as a finger.

Arriving at the company, Lin Manrou saw that Shen Youmo seemed to be working as usual and didn't seem to have seen too much of anything unusual. He couldn't help but think to himself, "Ye Qingcheng sent her to monitor me, isn't she afraid of being found out?" Or was it that even if he was found, it didn't matter? 'Looks like Ye Qingcheng is a lot more ruthless and bold than I imagined it.'

"Sister Lin, Sister Lin!"

Shen You Mo's voice was suddenly called back to her, bringing her back to her senses.

"What were you thinking about?" Shen Youmo asked curiously.

Lin Qingrou came back to her senses and said, "Nothing, I'm just thinking about my work."

Shen Youmo smiled and handed a piece of paper full of reports to Lin Qingrou.

"This was given to me by the accountant. It seems to be a project report. Please take a look at it."

Lin Manshou did not understand, "This report should be for the media and for the organization, how did you give it to us?"

Shen You Mo took it and looked at it carefully, suddenly realizing, "It's true, it seems like they took the wrong one, I'll return it to them now."

Lin Qingrou did not say anything, instead she asked, "Since you know that it's not right, why did you not notice it when they delivered it?"

Shen You Mo was startled, her eyes reddened, and quickly lowered her head to admit her mistake. "Sister Lin, I did not do it on purpose, it was just that I did not pay attention to it just now, that's why I made such a mistake. "Don't be angry, I'll return this to them right away!"

Seeing how she was leaving in such a hurry, Lin Qingrou was even more certain that she had something on her mind.

After Shen You Mei came back, Lin Manshou took the initiative to pass her a tissue and comforted, "I was just worried for you. If something goes wrong, I'm afraid no one can take responsibility for it."

Shen You Mo looked at Lin Qingrou, her expression turning bitter.

Lin Manshou quickly asked, "What happened? Is there something else? I've never seen you like this. "

At first, Shen You Mo didn't want to say it, but seeing that Lin Que was truly concerned for her, she relaxed a little: "It's my mom, she hasn't been well recently. Although it's an old problem, but I'm really worried!"

"Yes, Mother." Lin Ruo Wei pondered for a while. Seeing that she didn't seem to be pretending, she knew that she was talking about her mother's liver disease. Since you're sick, you should see a doctor in time. Otherwise, it won't be a delay. "

Shen You Mo sighed, "I know that too, but if we have to do a transplant, we …"

That's right, the cost of the transplant was huge, even for a rich person, let alone a family like Shen You Mo.

However, Lin Qingrou had not expected her mother's illness to be so serious.

Shen You Mo quickly wiped her tears away and said to Lin Manrou, "Sister Lin, don't be mad at me for saying all this during work hours."

Lin Qingrou shook her head, passing her a few more tissues before walking away without a word. When she returned to the office, she sat alone at the side. She suddenly thought in her heart: If Shen You Mo really is Ye Qingcheng's person, she will definitely be bribed. If Ye Qingcheng had already given her money, would she still worry about her mother's illness?

Or could it be that Ye Qingcheng wanted to make full use of her? That seems unlikely.

Lin Qingrou looked at Shen You Mo standing outside the glass wall. Her face was still full of worry, but it didn't seem like she was faking it.

So, was Shen You Mo really Ye Qingcheng's man?

Lin Qingrou hesitated, but at the same time, was at a loss.

After working overtime in the evening, Lin Qingrou looked at her phone. It was already past 8 PM. When she thought of Ye Qingming's words this morning, when she was hesitating about whether she should look for him, the phone suddenly came to her.

It was Ye Qingming.

Lin Qingrou focused and pressed the answer button.

"You still haven't gotten off work?" Ye Qingming's voice sounded exhausted.

Lin Qingrou nodded involuntarily. She heard the voice on the other end of the phone and asked, "You're still in the hospital?"

When Ye Qingming heard this, he sighed and said dejectedly, "I'm afraid I have to go back on my word today, so I can't bring you home." There are too many operations, I think I'll have to sleep in the hospital. "

Lin Qingrou didn't mind, she picked up her bag and prepared to go home.

"It's alright, I can go back by myself. Fortunately, it's not too late. And then there's the surgery? "

"There's one more." There was a problem in the middle of the operation this morning, so the operation has to be delayed all day. Otherwise, I could have picked you up earlier. " His tone was filled with dissatisfaction, this was something that Lin Qingrou had never heard before.

She comforted him, "Work first, I know that. "Don't worry, I'll be home soon."

Just as Ye Qingming was about to say something, a shout came from behind: "Chief Ye! The disinfection in Room 3 has been completed, so please come over immediately! "

Ye Qingming nodded, and then said to Lin Qingrou, "I'm going back to the operation room now, see you tomorrow."

After saying this, he hurriedly ended the call without waiting for a reply.

Lin Qingrou watched as the screen of the phone dimmed. She put the phone away with an emotionless face.

"Miss, we're here."

The taxi driver reminded her in time to pull her thoughts back to him.

Lin Manshou got out of the car and walked directly towards Liu Yuxi's house. It seemed like Lin Qingrou was used to visiting her every other day. However, she was still glad that Ye Qingming wasn't home recently, which saved her a lot of unnecessary explanations.

Liu Yuxi didn't expect her to come back so late. He was both surprised and happy to have the nanny bring him a bowl of soup to stew his bird's nest. Lin Manshui smiled as she refused the nanny. Then, she said to Liu Yuxi, "I've already eaten dinner. If you continue to eat now, it'll be a crime."

Liu Yuxi said discontentedly, "I eat every day and I don't feel fat."

Lin Qingrou looked at her, consoling her, "You're a patient, it's not wrong to make up for your illness. But I'm not hurt. "

Liu Yuxi snorted and turned his head away, ignoring her.

Seeing that their relationship wasn't ordinary, the nanny tactfully returned to her room, no longer disturbing them.

Seeing this, Lin Manshou asked Liu Yuxi, "Are you feeling better these past few days?"

Liu Yuxi nodded and drank half a bowl of bird's nest.

Lin Qingrou couldn't help smiling and wiped her mouth.

"That's good. I'm relieved."

Liu Yuxi smacked his lips and suddenly said to Lin Manshou, "Let's talk inside my house."

With that, Lin Qingrou helped Liu Yuxi back into the bedroom.

After the two sat down, Liu Yuxi was the first to speak. "Ye Sisi called me today."

Lin Man and Rou Wei were shocked.

"Why would she call? Did something happen to the wedding? "

Liu Yuxi pouted, "Who knows? Probably. After all, it's meaningless to be with someone you really like. "

After saying that, Liu Yuxi stole a glance at Lin Qingrou.

Lin Qingrou looked at her curiously.

"What's wrong?"

Liu Yuxi turned around and took a sip of water.

"Speaking of Ye Sisi, I thought of you. When you and Ye Qingming had just gotten together, you didn't have any feelings for each other. And now? Is it still the same as before? "

Lin Man Rou Wei was startled. She looked away, buried her face in the darkness, and smiled bitterly to herself. "He and I …." There's no need to talk about feelings, it's just all part of your own thoughts. "

Liu Yuxi shrugged his shoulders and handed her a cup of wine.

Lin Qingrou took a big gulp before asking, "If Ye Sisi comes back to find you tomorrow, will you be able to see her?"

Liu Yuxi tilted his head and thought for a moment. "He'll probably go." I'll unbandage it tomorrow, and I'll be there if I have time. To be honest, I really want to hear what Ye Sisi has to say. That child of hers might seem weak, but her heart is actually very sealed. She never reveals the slightest bit of her worries to anyone, let alone voluntarily complaining about it. "

Lin Qingrou glanced at her. This made sense.

However, even though she said that, Lin Manshui and Liu Yuxi were still worried for her. After all, marriage was a lifelong affair. One step wrong, one step wrong.

Lin Qingrou would even ask Liu Yuxi, "If we hadn't done this, perhaps Ye Sisi would have married someone decent. At the very least, she wouldn't have ended up like this."

Liu Yuxi, on the other hand, had never regretted it. She continued, "Without us, Ye Qingcheng would have also used this daughter as a bargaining chip. After all, Ye Sisi's fate isn't in our hands. It's in the hands of her father, Ye Qingcheng. "

Lin Qingrou took a deep breath. Wasn't she a victim of fate as well? Who was the lucky one? Who was the unfortunate one? How could she not be in charge?

The next night, when Ye Qingming returned home, Lin Qingrou had already finished dinner.

She was somewhat surprised that he had returned so early.

"It's been almost two days since I last saw anyone. It's rare for the director to let me go home early today."

"Then I'll make you some dinner."

She was about to stand up when Ye Qing called out to her.

"Forget it, I've already eaten in the hospital at noon. Furthermore, I don't have much appetite right now."

Upon seeing this, Lin Qingrou had no choice but to sit beside him, silently accompanying him.

After a moment of silence, Lin Qingrou suddenly asked, "When is Sisi's wedding?"

Ye Qingming was pinching his forehead when he suddenly heard her question. He was also stunned for a moment.

"Maybe it was in the spring, maybe it was after winter, I don't know. Why do you ask? "

Lin Qingrou shook her head, "It's nothing. I'm afraid that she won't be able to handle this by herself, so I decided to go and help her."

Ye Qingming held her shoulders and comforted her, "There's also sister-in-law. I heard that the marriage was handed over to the planning company, so there's probably nothing for us to do."

Lin Qingrou pondered for a moment, then said silently, "What do you think about her marriage?"

Ye Qingming didn't know what she wanted to ask, so he paused and said, "I didn't have the time to ask about this. I only know that Sisi is very unwilling." "I'm afraid you don't know as much as I do."

Lin Qingrou lowered her head and sighed softly, fiddling with the loose ends of her hair.

Ye Qingming looked at her, "You seem to be very concerned about her."

His tone didn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary, but to Lin Qingrou, it sounded as though he wasn't satisfied at all.

She thought about it for a moment, but eventually only shook her head and didn't say anything else.
