Li Er was mad at the Shen family for provoking Ye Fan.

But after he had calmed down, he began to think of a plan to save the Shen family.

After all, Li Er had been operating in Yunzhou for many years and, during that time, the Shen family had made themselves useful to him. Most of his funds came from the Shen family. Therefore, unless it was absolutely necessary, Li Er did not want to abandon the Shen family.

Finally, after facing a barrage of pleas from Shen Jiu-Yi, a composed Li Er sighed and said, “Alright, since you have served me faithfully all these years and because it was really your son’s fault, I will see what I can do. Maybe I can beg for forgivness on your behalf. As for you two, you are not getting any rest tonight. Get your ass over there and grovel in front of Young Master Fan.”

“Thank you, Master Er. Thank you, Master Er.” The desperation in Shen Jiu-Yi was clear to see. After giving thanks to Li Er, he left the Li family villa with his son.

Yunzhou City People’s Hospital.

“Mu-Cheng, are you feeling better?”

In the hospital ward, when Ye Fan saw that Qiu Mu-Cheng had woken up, he offered her an apple he had peeled earlier.

Qiu Mu-Cheng had already regained her frosty demeanour. In the past, she would simply ignore Ye Fan. She did not know since when, but her attitude toward Ye Fan had been slowly changing. So she unconsciously accepted the apple from Ye Fan, and even thanked him for it.

“Could it be that, I have fallen in love with this man?”

But she squashed the thought as soon as it appeared. A proud woman like Qiu Mu-Cheng would never allow herself to fall in love with a mediocre man. That was Qiu Mu-Cheng’s pride as a woman.

Ye Fan shook his head and smile. “There is no need for a husband and wife to stand on ceremony with each other.”

Qiu Mu-Cheng said nothing. She bowed her head and ate the apple in silence. However, a blush could be seen on her exquisite face.

“Oh by the way, how’s my grandfather doing? And the Qiu family, how are they doing?” Qiu Mu-Cheng suddenly remembered the problems plaguing her family, so she turned worriedly to Ye Fan for answers.

Ye Fan’s expression turned grave. He looked at Qiu Mu-Cheng and asked, “Mu-Cheng, don’t you hate the Qiu family? You still worry about them after what they have done to you.”

Qiu Mu-Cheng shook her head and smiled bitterly. “Blood is thicker than water. They are still my relatives and my elders, no matter how mean they are. I owe them for raising and educating me. And the Qiu family is where my roots are. Can you sever blood and family ties so easily? Also, it is my fault this time. I am the one who got the Qiu family into trouble.”

Even now, this kind-hearted girl only knew how to blame herself and her words were full of self-reproach.

Ye Fan sighed. “You silly girl.”
