Chapter 99

nJing Bo Yuan lowers down his gaze and clutches her face with both of his hand. His eyes are bright.

nHe looks at him, like Ye Qing Xin’s question is an outrageous one.

nYe Qing Xin smiles at him.

nThis man perhaps doesn’t like a woman that nags about whether he loves her or not.

nYe Qing Xin raises her hand to tidy up her hair. She hides her disappointment and tries to shift the topic: “For tonight, thank you…..”

nBut he just hugs her tightly. He says to her earside: “Xin Xin, for something, you just need to feel it with your heart. Something that comes out from mouth, maybe not true.

nSome people can only say it and you can use your ear to hear it. Some people’s love are put inside their heart. They put their love in their action, so you need to use your lifetime to feel and experience it.

nYe Qing Xin smiles and her eyes turns bright. She understands him.

nShe just thinks too much.

n…… Zhou Qiao Qiao starts to cough again.

nYe Qing Xin’s face changes, she immediately runs over.

nZhou Qiao Qiao coughs up blood again, though it’s not a lot.

nYe Qing Xin takes out the towel form the bathroom out and wipes it.

nZhou Qiao Qiao is still unconscious, she doesn’t aware of Ye Qing Xin’s action.

nThe time she calms down, Ye Qing Xin’s face is pale. She is at complete loss.

nShe remembers the doctor’s words again to her.

nAfter a while, Jing Bo Yuan comes over and hugs her.

nAfter a while, Jing Bo Yuan’s phone rings. He doesn’t go out, he just answers.

nYe Qing Xin doesn’t know what is it, she can only hear: “….. Tomorrow arrange for them to come, it’s good to be fast….”

nHe hangs up and let her chest sticks close to his st.u.r.dy chest.

n“No need to worry. There’re several expert of oncologist from j.a.pan. I help you to ask them to come over. Tomorrow afternoon they will arrive in Jing City. That time they will check your mother.”

nYe Qing Xin is shocked, she hugs him and her tears fall down.

nShe says: “Thank you, Bo Yuan.”

nShe feels that with him, each of her suffering turns not be so challenging.

nJing Bo Yuan strokes her head.

nThey stay like that for a while. Then he calls again. Not more than ten minutes, a young nurse with white uniform comes inside the room.

nThe nurse says embarra.s.sedly because she is intimidated by Jing Bo Yuan’s presence: “Mr Jing, Ms ye, I am Lin Zi Yi. The director asked me to come over to take care of Madame Zhou.”

nYe Qing Xin smiles and answers politely: “Sorry to trouble you.”

nThe nurse peeks at Jing Bo Yuan then says to Ye Qing Xin: “This is my duty, I should do this.”

nJing Bo Yuan holds Ye Qing Xin’s hand, “There’s someone here to help you take care of your Ma. You go and wash your face first. Sleep early. Tomorrow there’ll be some people come over to check on your mother. You need to be strong.”

nYe Qing Xin notices the nurse’s glance toward Jing Bo Yuan. She smiles at him: “Then you should go back. It’s inconvenient for an adult man like you to say.”

nJing Bo Yuan smiles and strokes her hair. He just leaves.

nShe watches him leave, she feels something is wrong with him.

nBut she cannot make it out.

n“Ms Ye, go and have a shower. I’ll look after her.”

nYe Qing Xin smiles at her and looks Zhou Qiao Qiao is sleeping so soundly. So she goes to the bathroom.

nWhen she is in front of the bathroom door, her leg is twisted a bit. She feels the pain. But it’s lucky that it’s just hurt a bit.

nYe Qing Xin ma.s.sages her uncle and suddenly she stops.

nShe remembers what’s wrong, Jing Bo Yuan’s ankle….

nShe doesn’t hesitate. She runs to the elevator and chases after him.

nThe elevator is going down, it just reaches eleventh floor, she is at eighteenth. So she just runs toward the stairs.

nThe time she arrives at the first floor. She is out of breath. The time she comes out from the staircase door. She notices that Jing Bo Yuan is standing in front of the lobby door.

nShe chases after him.

nFinally she grabs Jing Bo Yuan’s sleeve.

nJing Bo Yuan turns his head and looks her. He frowns: “Are you going down?”

nAfter a while, Ye Qing Xin finally can control her breath again. She doesn’t say anything and just kneels down. She lifts up his trouser leg and looks at his injured leg. It’s red and swollen.

nShe notices he is so calm and collected. She remembers when she just twists her ankle before, it feels so painful. But he manage to walk still full of charisma with this kind of pain.

nHer voice is somewhat full of emotion: “Are you hurt?”

nJing Bo Yuan smiles: “You ran over so fast for asking me this?”

nYe Qing Xin feels somewhat angry looking at how calm and indifferent he is. “You are still laughing!”

nHer tone is like a mature wife, who is scolding inexperienced husband.

nJing Bo Yuan pulls her up and holds her hand. “Not hurt.”

n“But……” Ye Qing Xin doesn’t believe him, “Last night it’s not this swollen. You still said that it’s not hurt. It’s swollen now. Don’t try to show off, let’s see the doctor okay?”

nJing Bo Yuan: “…….”

nThen Jing Bo Yuan is dragged by Ye Qing Xin to emergency room.

nThe doctor checks him and says: “The previous injury has not recover fully yet, it can be swollen for standing or walking too long. I’ll give a medicine for you to apply to it. For few days, it’s better to not too much strength on this one. If you need to walk, just use a walking stick.”

nWalking stick………..

nYe Qing Xin imagines the fully-suited Jing Bo Yuan, will walk with the walking stick. She finds it so funny. She agrees with the doctor’s advice: “Em, I’ll let him use the walking stick.”

nYe Qing Xin let Jing Bo Yuan sit down on the resting area to wait for her. She pays and takes the medicine that the doctor prescribed.

nYe Qing Xin then goes back to the resting room, she sits down beside Jing Bo Yuan and shifts up his leg. She places his leg on her thigh and lifts up his trouser leg. She applies the medicine.

nHis leg is so heavy.

nShe feels that her leg is pressed hard.

nJing Bo Yuan watches her expression and movement when she applies his medicine.

nJing Bo Yuan looks at her gaze. He is very serene.

nAfter ten minutes.

nYe Qing Xin stops and lifts down his trouser legs. She smiles at him: “You are done.”

nThen she tidies the medicine and puts it back inside the plastic bag. She holds his hand and takes him back to the parking area.

nUntil she stuffs him inside the car, she feels so sweaty.

nIt’s Driver Lu who drives the car.

nShe instructs Driver Lu to be careful. Then she let them leave.

nThe time the car disappears from her gaze, her smile disappears too. She returns to the Zhou Qiao Qiao’s sick room.

nInside the car.

nJing Bo Yuan lowers the car window and lights up his cigarette. He keeps on thinking of Ye Qing Xin’s little serious face.

nDriver Lu notices that this moment Mr Jing has a good mood. He is completely different from his normal face.

nSuddenly he remembers the news from Lao Zhang this morning. He wants him to find a great moment to reveal to him. After all, she is his mother. This his mother comes home, he should know about it.

nThis time Driver Lu sighs.

nThere’s a lot of Jing family members, everyone tries to not do this. How can someone like him be so unfortunate.

nAfter considering, Driver Lu says: “Mr Jing, next month it’ll be Old Madame He’s birthday….. I heard that …… yesterday Madame had returned…..”

nHe means Jing Bo Yuan’s mother, He Su E.

nJing Bo Yuan just replies lightly “Em.”

n“…….” Driver Lu is startled. Just like that?

nHe is to calm. He remembers that fourteen years ago, after that thing, both mother and son are estranged……

n“Driver Lu, focus on your driving.”

nDriver Lu understands and doesn’t say anything else.

nYe Qing Xin returns to the room and goes to see her Ma again. She notices a trace of blood, she should cough up blood again.

nShe holds her hand and says: “Ma, don’t worry. Bo Yuan has helped to invite oncologists from j.a.pan, they will give you examination. You’ll get better, Ma. Don’t be afraid….”

nZhou Qiao Qiao is still sleeping soundly.

n“Ms. Ye, sleep first. I’ll be here watching her.”

nYe Qing Xin smiles: “Thank you.”

nShe goes to take a bath.

nThis night, someone has a good sleep, but someone also has a continuous nightmare.

nZhou Qiao Qiao gets into a long deep dream.

nShe dreams about her childhood. The time she grew up with Tai Zheng Ting. She dreams about the time she met Han Qing Qing, how they become best friend because of having the same hobby. If she doesn’t fall in love with Han Qing Qing’s boyfriend, perhaps they will be best friend forever.

nShe remembers the day. Han Qing Qing was raped by the workshop director. She could help her that time by only pushing the door open and let her out. But she just closed the door and let her be raped. Because of that Han Qing Qing is forced to marry the workshop director. Zhou Qiao Qiao appeared in front of Ye Jun Dong and tried to get his heart. She was satisfied by marrying Ye Jun Dong. Because it’s been a long time, she thought that he will start to forget about Han Qing Qing and fall in love with her. But Ye Jun Dong is cold toward her, even for relationship between husband and wife, they only did not more than three times in a year.

nShe was so sad and Tai Zheng Ting found her. She didn’t refuse to meet him. She just shared her feeling to him. She was drank that time, the time she got up she felt something is wrong, but she didn’t think of Tai Zheng Ting did something wrong to her.

nThen the dream progresses to the time Ye Jun Dong knew the truth.

nAfter ten years that day, Han Qing Qing was tortured by that workshop director for almost ten years, she cannot endure it anymore. She wanted to end her life. But before she dead, she told everything to Ye Jun Dong.

nZhou Qiao Qiao remembers the day Ye Jun Dong grabbed her hair and smashed it to the wall. She felt that she will die.

nYe Jun Dong said to her: “Zhou Qiao Qiao! I didn’t expect you to be so ruthless! Killing you will make my hand dirty? You be so ruthless for get me? Now I want to divorce you! I don’t want to meet you again! I want you to be unable to get what you want forever!

nThe next day, Zhou Qiao Qiao opens her eyes.
