Chapter 725: You Are His Medicine
Ye Ling put down the knife and fork politely. “Say it. How have those annoying rascals benefitted you?”
“What benefits?” Tong Hua was annoyed. “Do I look like someone who cares about benefits? Even if the elder uncles are adorable, so is young uncle Yifan. I won’t change my mind so easily. I just genuinely feel that its good to have another form of backup. It would be good for you too. If you had a strong backup plan, you wouldn’t have had to fake your death.”
“Shen Qianshu, didn’t you tell him that your brothers were the one who sent people to kill me?”
Shen Qianshu was speechless.
Tong Hua cursed inwardly. Welp, that’s awkward.
He almost forgot about this.
Well… Seems like that was what happened.
“Uncles have turned over a new leaf. A prodigal daughter returning home is worth more than gold. We have to be open-minded. Give others a chance to repent and redeem themselves.”
Ye Ling squinted. “I really want to ask you. What does your teacher teach you? You sound like an old man with those cringy phrases.”
“International King of Jelly, who are you to say that about me?” Tong Hua did not wish to speak more to him. He had wanted to treat him as a friend and talk to him about his problems, but Ye Ling was unappreciative of it. Well, forget it then. Kindness is not appreciated. Then there’s nothing that can help him.
“What is International King of Jelly?”
“I’m saying that your jealousy is famous worldwide. You are number one, and no one can surpass you. Isn’t that just so great?” Tong Hua was in his sassy mode. You faked your death, and Mommy forgave you so easily, but I still haven’t. Insulting you every day brings me great joy.
For this meal, the guards enjoyed watching the show. They were really satisfied.
After dinner, Ye Ling went into the monitoring room and watched for Black Rose’s whereabouts. She vanished like thin air until Mu Yuan sent him information. Someone was taking over this mission, and time may be wasted. Ye Ling felt his heart turning heavy.
Black Rose has left, but what about the thing in Shen Qianshu’s tummy?
“Get Bo Yiren over.”
“Yes!”
Bo Yiren entered the castle when it was evening. Shen Qianshu was trimming the flowers in the garden, and they happened to bump into each other face to face. Bo Yiren was gentle and nice as usual with not a single tinge of aggressiveness. Shen Qianshu said softly, “Hello Miss Bo. Could you promise me something?”
Bo Yiren said softly, “Miss Shen, please go on.”
“When I was born, someone had stuck something in my tummy. I don’t know what it is, but all I know is that I could explode anytime. No matter what Ye Ling asks you, could you please lie and tell him not to worry about me? I hope he won’t do anything scary just for me. Most importantly, I can’t go get an operation.”
Bo Yiren was shocked. Can’t be operated on? Why?
Something in her tummy… Could explode anytime… This isn’t any small issue.
“Why?”
“He has hurt himself in Golden City. Right now, he has not had enough time to rest. I do not wish that he would be overworked. I just want him to recuperate well. I don’t want him to worry about other things. This has been inside me for so many years, and it has never affected my health anyway. Unless Black Rose has run out of ideas, she wouldn’t want me dead. She just wants to control me. Since it is so, we shouldn’t worry too much about it. If we do, we might end up giving Black Rose an opportunity.”
Bo Yiren stared at her blankly. “Miss Shen, you’re… really admirable.”
“Why so?”
“Master is so lucky to have you.” Bo Yiren laughed and did not answer her. “You will be his medicine.”
Shen Qianshu felt that she did not deserve being called that. She was only worried that he might do something harmful just for her health. She genuinely wished that Ye Ling would just rest.
