Chapter 183: You’ve Enraged Me, I’ve Lost Everything
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
She and Shen Jun had shared more than two decades of affection, even though they weren’t related by blood. Shen Qingyue knew Shen Jun well. If he truly wanted her gone, he wouldn’t have handed half of the Shen family’s wealth to her! Grandfather genuinely treated her as his granddaughter; this fact had been proven in a past life.
Yan Xi naturally knew that Shen Jun wouldn’t dismiss Shen Qingyue based on her words alone. But having said that, when she saw Shen Qingyue’s indifferent attitude, her anger flared. How could this true Young Miss be bullied by a fake one? The audacity of this intrusion! How dare this interloper insult her?
Shen Qingyue stood tall, without wasting more words. “Yan Xi, I can be frank with you. The Shen family belongs to you. Grandfather has been kind to me, and I won’t forget his kindness. I will find an appropriate opportunity to return the Shen family to you. After all, you’re well aware that, with your current abilities, you cannot manage the Shen family’s vast resources. As for the intentions of the Xu Fengzhi family, I believe you aren’t foolish enough not to see through them. Before that moment arrives, please refrain from provoking me. I don’t want to destroy Grandfather’s lifelong efforts because of you… So, don’t even think about plotting against me anymore. Push me too far, and your efforts will be in vain.
She had spoken kindly to Yan Xi, considering Shen Jun’s face, and now it was up to Yan Xi to decide.
Yan Xi glared at Shen Qingyue, watching her walk away. She quickly rinsed her mouth with water, but no matter how many times she did it, she felt unclean inside. In the end, she fiercely threw the mineral water bottle to the ground.
Shen Qingyue! She was taking over her life and now fighting for the family property! Talking about finding an appropriate opportunity… Who did she think she was? Wasn’t she just looking down on her? Without Shen Qingyue, she might have been welcomed back a long time ago. If she had been given the chance earlier, she would have done a much better job than this impostor, Shen Qingyue.
In the evening after work, Shen Qingyue went to visit Tong Jia. But just as she reached the door of the ward, she encountered Han Xu, who was standing guard. She could not help but laugh bitterly. They had just changed hospitals, and he had found them so quickly.
The ward’s door was sealed shut; they had been driven out.
Han Xu leaned against the wall, his face covered in stubble, looking completely unkempt, a far cry from his usual elite appearance. When he saw Shen Qingyue, he immediately straightened up and said urgently, “Shen Qingyue, ask Wanzhe to open the door. I need to see her…”
Shen Qingyue didn’t even want to look at him. “President Han, first go check your own mind. Look at what you’ve done to her! You still want to see her?
Should she thank you for making her lie in the hospital like this for so long?”
Hearing this, Han Xu felt a pang in his chest. He had hurt his Wanzhe like this. But he did not know Tong Jia was Tong Wanzhe! If he had known, how could he have harmed her? “I didn’t mean to, it’s all a misunderstanding… She should give me a chance…”
“A chance?” Shen Qingyue sneered. “Have you ever given her a chance? Not to mention before, just that night. If it weren’t for Chiming’s people arriving in time, do you know what Tong Jia would have faced? Those people forced her into a corner, afraid of your punishment. They wanted to ruin her innocence; she was almost… Do you have any right to ask her for a chance?”
Shen Qingyue could not contain her emotions. Perhaps because they were both women, she could feel Tong Jia’s helplessness. If Tong Jia hadn’t tried to accuse Han Xu, she wouldn’t have spoken about what almost happened that night.
Han Xu had harmed Tong Jia to this extent; he didn’t deserve to be forgiven!
Han Xu was well aware of his debt to Tong Jia. That’s why he couldn’t sleep at night; his heart ached terribly. “I know I’ve wronged her, but as long as she’s willing to give me a chance to compensate, I…’
Shen Qingyue coldly interrupted him, “Han Xu, deep down you know she’s not interested! She doesn’t want anything from you. If you truly want to compensate now, stay away from her. That would make her happy.” After saying this, Shen Qingyue walked past him and knocked on the door.
The door was soon opened by a nurse inside. Han Xu tried to force his way in but was stopped by the people left here by Chiming.
The door quickly closed again. Han Xu stared blankly at the door. He wouldn’t give up; he would definitely make Tong Jia personally open this door for him.
After entering the room, Shen Qingyue sat down on a chair next to the hospital bed. “How are you feeling today?”
Tong Jia was half-lying down, a faint smile on her pale face. “I really feel much better. The doctors are surprised too; they say I’m recovering very quickly. I guess I’m pretty resilient…
She spoke this with a touch of self-mockery. If it weren’t for her resilience, she would have been tormented to death by Han Xu long ago. But she didn’t want to talk about these things anymore. She simply said, “I originally wanted to go out for a walk, get some fresh air. But there’s someone guarding outside the door, so I haven’t been able to go out..”
