Chapter 487: He Never Loved Her
Ye Qingyu looked at Li Yanchen, who was carefully feeding the little girl. His side profile was handsome and refined, and his phoenix eyes under the glasses revealed a rare trace of gentleness.
Ye Qingyu suddenly felt as if a huge stone was pressing down on her heart, making it difficult for her to breathe in an instant.
Her hands unconsciously caressed her bulging abdomen, and the tears in her eyes began to swirl.
Was it like what Liu Ke ‘er had said? Was the child in her stomach going to be used to save the little girl in the ward?
Ye Qingyu bit her lip hard. Her hands that were clenched into fists tightened and loosened again and again.
She didn’t immediately turn around and leave. Instead, she took a few steps forward and pushed the door open.
She used too much force and the door frame hit the wall with a bang.
The man sitting by the bed turned around.
Seeing Ye Qingyu appear at the door, a hint of panic appeared on Chu Bian’s usually calm face.
He put down his bowl and spoon and strode towards Ye Qingyu.
Ye Qingyu tried her best to control her emotions. She glared at Li Yanchen with red eyes.” Aren’t you going to the neighboring city for a business trip and can only return tomorrow?”
Li Yanchen looked at Ye Qingyu’s small face and pursed his thin lips into a straight line.
He grabbed her wrist.” Let’s talk when we get back.”
Ye Qingyu flung his hand away and looked at the woman and little girl in the ward.” Who are they?”
“Let’s talk when we get back.” Other than the initial shock he felt when he saw her, his face had already regained its calmness. The phoenix eyes under the glasses were cold and cold, without any emotion.
His excessive calmness made Ye Qingyu feel like she had fallen into an ice cellar.
Liu Ke ‘er didn’t lie to her. She was telling the truth!
Ever since she got pregnant, his kindness to her was all fake.
He did not care.
Ye Qingyu’s lips quivered slightly. She pointed at the woman and the little girl in the ward.” Are they your lover and illegitimate daughter?””
Li Yanchen’s expression darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye. He tightened his grip on Ye Qingyu’s arm and dragged her out despite her struggle.” Don’t be unreasonable here!”
He rarely got angry, and even when he did, it wasn’t because he didn’t get angry, but because of that, he emitted a cold and sharp aura.
He did not give her a chance to speak and pulled her into the elevator.
Ye Qingyu’s strength was no match for his, so she let him drag her and took the elevator to the basement.
He stuffed her into the car.
He started the engine and drove to Cheng Garden.
Along the way, neither of them spoke, and the air was filled with a deathly stillness.
Ye Qingyu grabbed her bag with both hands, her fingertips trembling uncontrollably.
Her mind was in a mess and she didn’t know what to say. She was also afraid of hearing something from him.
However, her personality did not allow her to retreat.
When they arrived at Cheng Garden, the two of them got out of the car one after another.
After entering the apartment, Ye Qingyu sat on the sofa with her legs weak.
Every cell in his body was screaming crazily.
After Li Yanchen returned, he stood in front of the French windows. He seemed to have not thought about how to be honest with her. He took out a cigarette from his pocket and bit his lip.
The lighter lit up a few times, but it did not light up.
After Ye Qingyu became pregnant, she couldn’t stand the smell of cigarettes. He was usually a heavy addict, but for the sake of her and the child, he never smoked in Cheng Garden.
Ye Qingyu was touched by this.
Now that she thought about it, she was a fool. Force!
Li Yanchen didn’t ask her how she had gone to the hospital. She had seen it and couldn’t hide it anymore.
He sat on the sofa opposite her, his phoenix eyes under the gold-rimmed glasses looking at her gloomily.” Ask whatever you want to ask!”
Ye Qingyu’s eyes were misty and she could not see Li Yanchen’s face clearly. She sniffed and said in a voice that was as ethereal as the wind,” Did you have a motive for marrying me?””
Li Yanchen was silent for a long time. Just as Ye Qingyu thought that he would not say anything, he grunted in a hoarse voice.
Ye Qingyu’s heart tightened instantly.
There was no emotion on his face, and there was no panic or nervousness in his voice.
Ye Qingyu closed her eyes. It was as if her voice was no longer hers. It was extremely hoarse.” Why?”
She had already guessed eighty to ninety percent, but she still wanted to hear him say why?
What had she done wrong for him to treat her like this?
Li Yanchen’s tall and cold body leaned against the back of the sofa. He took off his glasses and pressed his eyebrows with his slender fingers.” The woman you saw in the ward is called Aunt Lan. That’s her daughter, Lan Ling.”
“Aunt Lan and Uncle Lan worked in the Li family when I was very young. Uncle Lan was a driver. When I was fourteen, I went to Yun Cheng to visit a friend. At that time, my sister was not the Shuang ‘er you know. There was another sister behind Shuang’ er. She was seven years old that year. She loved to stick to me since she was young. When she found out that I was going to Yun Cheng, she cried and followed me.”
“At that time, Uncle Lan drove us to Cloud City. After driving for more than ten hours, we arrived at Cloud City. That night, it was stormy. Not long after we got on the viaduct, a small car suddenly changed lanes and rushed towards our car.”
“We didn’t have time to react before the car was knocked into the sea. When I woke up again, I received the bad news that Uncle Lan was dead and my sister had fallen into the sea without a corpse!”
“At that time, the viaduct in Yun Cheng had just been repaired, so there were no surveillance cameras installed. Even our Li family couldn’t find out who hit our car! However, under the Li family’s constant investigation, we found out that the car belongs to the Ye family.”
“We’re about to investigate further. Your father’s driver went to the police station to turn himself in, claiming that he drank that night and caused the serious accident! Our family naturally wouldn’t believe it so easily. We went to check the car’s driving recorder. Coincidentally, it had been deleted that night. The driver who surrendered also committed suicide on the third night of his detention.”
“There was no follow-up to this matter. All the witnesses and evidence were destroyed. However, Ye Qingyu, the scapegoat driver, had injured her wrist a few days before the story. How could he drive?”
“Obviously, he is taking the blame for someone else. But who is he taking the blame for?”
Ye Qingyu was already lying in a daze on the sofa. She widened her eyes and looked at Li Yanchen with a pale face.” Are you suspecting my father?”
“Whether it was your father or not, I think he knows very well.”Li Yanchen stood up from the sofa, his handsome and refined face covered with a layer of coldness.”Your father must have known that the Li family would not let the Ye family off, so he asked you to marry me to atone for your sins!”
Ye Qingyu shuddered and instantly felt like she had fallen into an ice cellar.
Looking at the man who stood in front of the French window, his back exuded a cold aura. She felt as if she had just met him for the first time.
Or perhaps, she had never seen his true face. In front of her, he had always been hiding himself.
