He didn’t say that he loved her, but he had always loved her.

Back then, Li Ting loved her and she loved him, so she could just coax him.

Now that Li Tingshen still loved her, she didn’t want to love him anymore. She couldn’t coax him no matter what.

Qingqiu loved him openly, but she had decided not to love him.

Their relationship seemed to be…

Qingqiu wasn’t in charge.

Actually, the person she was really afraid of back then was not Qingqiu, but Li Tingshen.

Until now, it had been.

Ye Zhenzhen closed her eyes to suppress the pain.

“Then what do you plan to do?”

Li Tingshen shook his head.

“I don’t know, probably, as long as she doesn’t leave. As long as she doesn’t leave my sight, I can see her at any time and know about her…”

Ye Lixun pursed her lips. “Are you satisfied with that?”

Li Tingshen didn’t hesitate. “Not satisfied.”

Ye Lixun felt suffocated.

It was as if she was Li Tingshen now. She was in a place where she couldn’t leave no matter what.

Frustration, anxiety, madness.

After a moment of silence, she said, “I won’t be leaving today. Go back to the hospital.”

Li Tingshen stared at her. “Really?”

“If you don’t believe me, you won’t let others watch?”

“She will be angry.”

Li Tingshen said softly as he tried to retract his arm from the pillar. His stiff body swayed slightly.

Ye Lixun pursed her lips and looked at him deeply. “… She won’t wake up so early. Come in and eat something.”

Li Tingshen didn’t move.

“When your body is completely drained and you’re bedridden, or when you’re unconscious for three to five days, do you think Qingqiu will stay by your bed or take the opportunity to escape with Linlin?”

Li Tingshen’s dark eyes finally moved.

Ye Lixun narrowed her eyes and turned to open the door.

Li Tingshen stood quietly for a while before walking in stiffly.

Ye Lixun instructed the servants to prepare breakfast for Li Tingshen.

Breakfast was light. There was plain porridge, side dishes, and two fried eggs.

“Is her breakfast also like this?” Li Tingshen asked.

There was a cup of hot water in front of Ye Lixun. She nodded and said, “She usually eats with Linlin. It’s the same breakfast. Occasionally, she makes sandwiches for Linlin. Children like to eat that.”

Li Tingshen nodded and glanced at the fried egg. “Compared to this, she likes to eat boiled eggs. It’s better to soak the eggs in salt for a few days.”

Ye Lixun pursed her lips. “She never said that.”

*

Li Tingshen finished his breakfast and didn’t stay any longer.

When she went out, Xiao Chu was already there.

Seeing him come out, he hurriedly opened the car door.

Li Tingshen’s face turned red.

She had no appetite, but she ate breakfast. Her head was spinning and her stomach was churning.

He had endured it.

The fever had returned.

After entering the hospital, the doctors were flustered again. By the time they gave him an IV drip, Li Tingshen had already fallen asleep.

*

Ye Qingqiu brought Linlin down for breakfast while Ye Lixun sat in the dining room.

“Good morning.”

“Good morning, Aunt.”

Ye Qingqiu and Linlin greeted her. Ye Lixun smiled and replied, “Good morning, Linlin. Did you sleep well last night?”

“Yes!”

“Come, I’ll feed you today.”

“Okay.”

Ye Lixun picked up a side dish for Linlin and looked at Ye Qingqiu, who was eating in peace. She pursed her lips.

“Are you going to the hospital today?”

Ye Qingqiu said calmly, “Grandpa wants to teach Linlin how to play chess.”

“Aren’t you going to visit him?”

“Go ahead. Linlin misses him the moment she wakes up today.”

Ye Lixun smiled. “If I woke up earlier, I might have seen him.”

Ye Qingqiu stopped eating and looked at Ye Lixun.

“He was here?”

“I don’t know when she came. She was already here when I opened the door this morning.”

Ye Qingqiu lowered her gaze and her gaze landed on Linlin’s bowl of porridge.

“He got into a car accident yesterday and has a high fever. He’s in the hospital, Aunt.”

“You don’t believe me either. Me too. The moment I opened the door and saw him, I felt like it was yesterday. Who knew? He was like a lunatic. I was afraid that he would really die at my door, so I let him have breakfast.”

Ye Qingqiu said nothing.

Linlin stopped eating. “Aunt, is Daddy… going to die?”

“It’s okay. Daddy is in the hospital now. He likes you so much, of course he can’t bear to leave you.”

Linlin nodded, her mood darkening.

*

She brought Linlin to the hospital to visit Old Master Li. Without playing chess, she went to Li Tingshen’s ward.

Xiao Chu stood guard in the ward.

Ye Lixun was considered old after all. In such a cold and deserted place, she felt uncomfortable.

She was the only one who was hospitalized and there was only one assistant who was not related to her.

“You’re so young, but you’re leading an empty life.” Ye Lixun mocked.

Xiao Chu stood at the side and glanced at Ye Qingqiu.

Linlin walked to the bed and looked at the sleeping Li Tingshen. His dark eyes were filled with hope and worry.

There was a layer of sweat on Li Tingshen’s forehead and his face was flushed. His brows were tightly knitted and his thin lips were pale.

How uncomfortable must someone who didn’t show her emotions on her face to make such an expression?

She had never seen Li Tingshen fall so ill before.

*

Li Tingshen had always been a light sleeper. Even though there were so many people in the room, he didn’t react.

She didn’t even wake up at noon.

Ye Qingqiu walked out of the ward with Linlin. “Mommy, is Daddy seriously ill?”

Ye Qingqiu carried Linlin silently and walked forward.

“Mommy?”

“… Yes?”

Linlin looked at her for two seconds. “Is Daddy seriously ill?”

Ye Qingqiu paused. “I’m fine. I just have a fever…”

Linlin frowned. “I’ve had a fever before and it’s very uncomfortable… I feel that Daddy is as uncomfortable now as Linlin was then…”

“Yeah.”

Ye Qingqiu responded lightly, her thoughts seemed to be drifting.

Ye Lixun looked at her silently.

*

When he woke up at nine in the evening, Xiao Chu immediately informed someone to prepare dinner.

“CEO Li.”

Li Tingshen sat up expressionlessly and took the cup from Xiao Chu before finishing it.

“What time is it?”

“Around nine tonight.”

Li Tingshen put down the cup and lifted the blanket.

“CEO Li!”

Xiao Chu could guess what he wanted to do and stopped him, “I’ll get someone to watch over Miss Ye. You don’t have to guard her personally.”

Li Tingshen’s face darkened. “Who allowed you to do that?”

“I’m sorry, CEO Li, but I promise I won’t be discovered by Miss Ye.”

Li Tingshen wanted to leave, but Xiao Chu blocked his way and persuaded him earnestly.

“CEO Li, there are thousands of people waiting for you in the company. Even if you have to go personally, can you have something to eat first?”

“It’s still early.”

*

Midnight.

Ye Qingqiu sat up on the bed.

After sitting alone in the dark room for a long time, she finally got out of bed and went downstairs.

Then, she walked to the door and looked at the two closed doors for a long time before stepping forward and opening one.

A gust of wind blew in the cold air.

Ye Qingqiu subconsciously narrowed her eyes and shrugged.

Through the light in the living room, a figure was striding towards her.

Before she could react, she was already wrapped in the man’s embrace.

The open suit almost wrapped her entire body.

“Why did you come out?!” Li Tingshen’s voice sounded hoarse, but his deep growl made her ears buzz.

Before she could react, the man had already pushed her into the house.

The door closed automatically and the sound of the door closing brought Ye Qingqiu back to reality. She pushed Li Tingshen away.

Li Tingshen’s body wasn’t strong, so he bumped into the door again.

Ye Qingqiu frowned. Seeing that he was looking at her again, Ye Qingqiu frowned even more.

“Who let you in?”

“It’s cold outside.”

Ye Qingqiu pursed her lips. “You’re feeling cold now?”

Li Tingshen stood up with his arms against the door. His Adam’s apple bobbed and his voice was low and hoarse.

“You’re cold.”

Ye Qingqiu closed her eyes. “What do you want? If I really want to leave one day, I won’t choose to leave secretly at night. What’s the point of staying here all night? If I really want to leave, what can you do to me? Stop me from leaving?”

Li Tingshen didn’t speak for a long time and only looked at her quietly, as if he was stumped.

“… Other than stopping you, I don’t seem to have any other choice.”

Ye Qingqiu looked at her for a while and smiled. “Do you still want to force me to stay by your side like before?”

“Then are you really leaving?”

Li Tingshen’s voice sounded without any hesitation.

Ye Qingqiu didn’t speak for a while.

“If you don’t plan to leave, I won’t force you to stay in the future.”

“So are you planning to spend the rest of your life with me?”

Li Tingshen approached her slowly, his dark eyes locked on her face. “I don’t want to waste time with you. Tell me, what do you want me to do so that you can love me again and be with me?”

His approach made Ye Qingqiu’s body stiffen slightly.

“You don’t have to do anything. I’m already tolerant enough of you. Li Tingshen, don’t push your luck.”

Li Tingshen chuckled softly, and his voice, which had turned hoarse from the high fever, became even deeper.

It knocked on her eardrums and shook her heart.

Ye Qingqiu turned to leave, but she was already in the man’s embrace.

He pressed his forehead against hers, his hot forehead pressing against her skin as he leaned his weight on her.

Her lips tightened, but she didn’t move.

“I do want more. I thought that as long as you’re still in the country, it’s fine. Later on, I felt that you had to be in a place where I can easily see you. Later on, I wanted you to be by my side at all times. However, it’s best if you can sleep in my arms every day…”

As he spoke, he caressed her forehead, his lips scorching every inch of her skin. He tilted his head slightly and his lips landed on her temples.

“Brother Bo said that you can pursue and intercept me, cheat and cheat me. As long as you’re mine and stay by my side as I wish, it’s right…”

Ye Qingqiu frowned.

“Tell me, what should I do for you to be with me? As long as you say it, I’ll do as you say. If you refuse, I can only try Brother Bo’s method.”

Ye Qingqiu frowned and pushed him away. “Are you like a rascal?”

“But I want you.”

The woman who had just taken a shower and climbed out of bed was full of fragrance. Her clothes were thin and one could easily see her beautiful collarbones at the collar of her pajamas. Even her jawline and neckline were beautiful.

She was angry, but she was charming and beautiful when she was angry.

He pressed his body down again and kissed the corner of her lips.

The burning sensation from her lips was like tiny sparks that crawled through her skin to every nerve in her body.

“I actually gave you a chance to leave, but you lured me out.”

Ye Qingqiu roughly knew that he was talking about her getting him out of the room.

“You can totally lock yourself in!”

“I can’t do it anymore.” His breath landed on her ear as his lips grazed it.

“If you get me out, you have to be responsible until the end.”

Li Tingshen probably didn’t understand what he had said.

After all her thoughts landed on her skin, there was only one thought left.

A thought that had been suppressed for too long.

Her rationality was falling apart. It was true that he wanted her.

Ye Qingqiu’s strength was nothing compared to the weight of his body. She turned her head to dodge, but his kiss landed on the side of her neck.

His messy and heavy breathing made her panic. “Li Tingshen.”

The most intimate thing between them was sharing a bed before and after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

At that time, she would at least know that he wouldn’t.

But now, she felt that he wouldn’t stop.

Perhaps it was because his fever had muddled his brain. Perhaps it was because he had trapped himself somewhere for too long and had decided to go astray at this moment. Perhaps it was because he had finally found a reasonable reason to blame her. He was relieved.

“I can also get you back!”

“I won’t go back.” He suddenly stopped kissing her and looked at her firmly. “Unless you kill me and throw me in.”

Ye Qingqiu was stunned for a moment before she blinked stiffly. Li Tingshen’s lips pressed against hers.

In Li Tingshen’s eyes, he would hesitate even if Ye Qingqiu paused.

Hesitation was reluctance, reluctance was love.

Even if she had to deceive herself.

Ye Qingqiu was hoping that nothing would happen tonight.

Because his brain was damaged, because he still had a high fever.

Even if he really wanted to do something, at least his current situation didn’t allow it.

But it was too late when the man carried her upstairs and pressed her onto the bed.

“I’ve tried to let you off. If you don’t leave, I won’t have another chance.”

“You can’t leave me. There’s no other man in the world who will treat you better than me. Staying by my side is the best choice.”

Ye Qingqiu’s mind was in a mess from the kiss. Her pajamas were exposed by him.

It was as if a cheetah that had been hungry for too long had finally caught a deer. It pressed it under its claws and gnawed on it to prepare for a full meal.

He kissed her passionately.

It landed on a sensitive spot that he was too familiar with.

“Why?” Ye Qingqiu closed her eyes. “There are many men who dote on women…”

His lips were suddenly kissed and his teeth bit her lips.

It sounded like a punishment.

Indeed, he didn’t like what she said.

She could actually accept another man’s love?

“No. No one will spoil you more than me because no one will love you more because I’ve done something wrong to you…”

Li Tingshen’s love and the compensation he insisted on giving her, she only got more.

Ye Qingqiu’s eyes flashed.

“Don’t ask me to let you off again… As long as you exist in this world, I can’t forget you. If I let you off… no one will let me off…”

…

After three years, the feeling that she should have completely forgotten seemed to have been found by someone. It was pulled out bit by bit and wrapped around her entire body.

Again and again, the irresistible feeling surged up layer by layer.
