Chapter 131: Keep Your Mouth Shut
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Shen Qingyue was straightforward, “I didn’t come to visit you.” There was no need for false pleasantries between her and Qin Zhen.
Qin Zhen’s slightly improved mood plummeted instantly. “Do you have something to discuss?”
Shen Qingyue got straight to the point, “Qin Corporation has been interfering with a project of Shen Corporation lately. I can’t recall doing anything to offend you recently, so why would you block my financial path? Business should be a two-way street; there’s no need for such trouble. Does it make sense for you to harm others without benefiting yourself?
“I haven’t…” Qin Zhen began but suddenly remembered something. He couldn’t handle this matter conveniently at the hospital, so he delegated some of his authority to his mother. He recalled his mother’s suspicion that Shen Qingyue might be behind the car accident. “This matter should be my mother’s doing.”
Shen Qingyue recalled the previous incident when Madam Qin had come to her home to question her about the car accident. She could not fathom how someone so thoughtless could manage a corporation and not be sidelined by others. She might not consider herself exceptionally wise, but she was certainly more capable than Madam Qin, right? Shen Qingyue was at a loss for words and, after a moment of silence, asked, “Can you make her stop?”
In reality, she had other ways to deal with this, but this was the quickest. Besides, she had donated a considerable amount of blood to save Qin Zhen’s life, so she felt this request was not unreasonable.
Qin Zhen was about to agree when Shen Qingyue’s phone rang. She glanced at it and saw that it was Chi Ming. She said, “Sorry, I need to take this call.”
She walked to the window and answered, “What’s wrong… I’m at the hospital right now, not very convenient to chat…”
Chi Ming remained silent for a few seconds, then asked, “Visiting your grandfather? Or Qin Zhen?”
“Qin Zhen… It’s not exactly a visit, I’m looking for him to-
“Well, you go ahead and do what you need to do.” Shen Qingyue was interrupted by Chi Ming before she could finish her sentence.
After ending the call, Shen Qingyue stared at the disconnected phone in a daze. She suddenly remembered that when Qin Zhen had just had the accident, she had fainted from anemia, and Chi Ming’s attitude in the hospital room at that time was somewhat similar to his current tone…
Qin Zhen, seeing her lost in thought after the call, asked with a deep gaze, “Who was that?”
Shen Qingyue gathered her thoughts and returned to the bedside, casually saying, “Chi Ming.” She did not see any need to hide this matter.
Upon hearing that name, Qin Zhen’s face turned completely dark. “You’ve been having a great time while I’ve been in the hospital, haven’t you?” He was in the hospital, and Shen Qingyue hated him so much that she probably cheered every day, right? And she was probably spending all her time with Chi Ming, wasn’t she? Qin Zhen’s hand on the bed tightened abruptly.
Shen Qingyue’s previous response had been offhand; she did not think there was any need to continue the conversation with Qin Zhen. “Let’s get back to our previous topic…”
Qin Zhen interrupted her. “I can’t help you. Doesn’t Chi Ming like to meddle in your affairs? You lie in bed with him, so why bother coming to me?” Shen Qingyue’s face also turned unpleasant. “You should watch your words!”
Qin Zhen was so angry that his whole body trembled, and it seemed like his wound might have reopened, as blood began to seep out. “You’ve had an abortion, and you want me to watch my words? Why don’t you take a look at what you’ve done…”
Shen Qingyue glanced at him, frowned, and thought about calling a nurse. However, from the way he looked, he seemed to consider her presence unnecessary. She simply said, “I’ve already explained this to you. I was handling the paperwork for someone else… Ah, forget it! I shouldn’t have come today. Rest assured, I won’t bother you anymore, Mr. Qin.”
She had been naive, thinking that if she donated blood to save him, he might show some gratitude and help her this time. But how could she forget that despite everything she had done for him before, he had never shown any mercy? What was a little blood to him? If it weren’t for her reverence for life, saving him would have been pointless. She thought she had let go, but Qin Zhen was, after all, a CEO, and she shouldn’t have been so childish.
Shen Qingyue did not linger and left the hospital room directly.
As soon as she stepped out, she ran into Wei Jiu’er, who had come to visit.
Wei Jiu’er saw her and immediately put on a guarded expression. “What are you here for?”
Shen Qingyue glanced at her without answering and walked away.
Wei Jiu’er felt uneasy in her heart and entered the hospital room. Seeing that Qin Zhen’s face did not look good, she worriedly asked, “Zhen, what did Shen Qingyue say to you?”
Qin Zhen shouted angrily, “Don’t even mention that woman!”
Wei Jiu’er was startled by his tone, but she felt relieved. It seemed that Shen Qingyue had another conflict with Qin Zhen, and this matter was unlikely to be exposed. However, she wasn’t so sure about the future. She needed to hurry up and proceed with her marriage to Qin Zhen..
