Chapter 626: Not So Strong
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lin Ran was taken aback by Ye Qingzi’s sudden message. As he opened it, a photo of her swollen hand filled his screen.
The sight shocked him so much that he involuntarily kicked the table. “Damn it! Young Master Xiao, Ye Qingzi got beaten up and is in the hospital.”
Xiao Yize calmly continued eating his rice while skimming through the file. His elegant eyebrows raised slightly, and his tone remained composed. “Oh.”
To Lin Ran, that “oh” probably translated to “well, serves her right.”
In the past, it was only because Ye Qingzi was a girl that Xiao Yize didn’t retaliate. But if it were Ye Hanshen, he would undoubtedly take action to vent his anger.
People could be irrational when it came to those dear to them. Even if they knew logically that someone was innocent, it was hard to let go of the urge for revenge when they saw their loved ones harmed.
Lin Ran’s eyes widened. “The one who hit her was Miss Gu Jin.”
Miss Gu was formidable! Even in the capital, few dared to lay a hand on the eldest daughter of the Ye family.
Xiao Yize’s hand, previously occupied with the mouse, froze. He ceased both eating and working.
“Is she alright?” he inquired, concern evident in his tone. “I mean Gu Jin.”
Lin Ran sensed Xiao Yize might be overthinking. “She’s fine, of course. Miss Gu is a force to be reckoned with, being a mutant and all. How could someone like Ye Qingzi stand a chance against her?”
With a satisfied grin, Lin Ran finished reading Ye Qingzi’s lengthy message. He felt the girl’s annoyance practically leaping off the screen.
“She actually complained to you? Tsk, what’s she thinking? And mentioning that Miss Gu has a handsome boy defending her? She’s clearly trying to stir up trouble.” Lin Ran was a seasoned observer of love, adept at deciphering girls’ intentions.
“A handsome boy…”
A shadow passed over Xiao Yize’s eyes. Abruptly, he rose from his seat and extended his long arm to snatch Lin Ran’s phone.
Upon closer inspection, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Three people sat together for a meal – two women and a man. The other two were his sister and Feng Jue, their frequent gathering partners.
While he acknowledged Feng Jue’s undeniable good looks, his focus remained on his sister. Thus, Feng Jue posed no threat.
Yet, Ye Qingzi’s affected tone irked him.
Miss Gu had always been reserved, never one to provoke conflict. Feng Jue wouldn’t lash out at Ye Qingzi without cause. Only Ye Qingzi would push boundaries with his sister if it meant provoking a reaction.
Miss Gu’s sister was his own.
Observing Xiao Yize’s somber expression, Lin Ran inwardly lamented for Ye Qingzi.
He felt she belonged in a psychiatric ward rather than a surgical one. What she did was akin to turning herself in at a police station.
As Xiao Yize typed out a response to Ye Qingzi, addressing each of her points meticulously.
Xiao Yize: [There’s no misunderstanding. Stay away from my mother. That’s the greatest help to her.]
Xiao Yize: [The boys and girls around her are all good-looking. Birds of a feather flock together, so stay away from her.]
Xiao Yize: [I won’t delay your treatment of others. You have to go to the psychiatric department to treat yourself before you can treat others.]
Xiao Yize: [If you don’t argue with them, what else do I have to worry about?]
After sending the messages, Xiao Yize glanced at Ye Qingzi’s swollen hand photo. After a moment of contemplation, he snapped a photo of the green tea on the table and sent it.
Xiao Yize: [Tsk, I didn’t expect the sourness to smell so strong.]
