In front of the French windows in the office, Li Tingshen was dressed in a dark suit. His figure was slender and well-proportioned.
He stood there quietly. Through the glass, he could see the entire Ping Cheng City.
“CEO Li…”
Xiao Chu couldn’t help but shout from behind. Li Tingshen retracted his gaze and said calmly, “When does she plan to be discharged?”
“I don’t know. Miss Ye didn’t say.”
Xiao Chu replied that Miss Ye wanted to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival alone.
“She must be discharged before the Mid-Autumn Festival.”
“Yes.”
Xiao Chu agreed, but the initial question was not answered.
“CEO Li, why did you ask me to come to the apartment for lunch?”
“Red dates and fungus soup, winter melon ribs, stir-fried beans, white vinegar cucumber, and white rice.”
“Alright, I’ll get Xiao Xu to bring your share over.”
“Yeah.”
“What about Miss Liang…”
“Think about it yourself.”
“Yes.”

“Lunch is here.” Mother Wang came in with a lunchbox.
Ye Qingqiu placed her phone aside and watched as Mother Wang laid out the dishes.
“Red dates and fungus soup, winter melon ribs, stir-fried beans, white vinegar cucumber, white rice…”
Ye Qingqiu picked up the spoon and scanned the dishes before picking up the soup bowl.
“Every meal looks flawed and shiny.”
Mother Wang smiled and said, “Isn’t it because you’re injured? You can’t eat hair products, spicy and stimulating, and you can’t eat soy sauce and vinegar. Otherwise, not only will your wound recover slowly, but it will also leave a scar. Of course, a girl has to be beautiful.”
Ye Qingqiu didn’t comment.

Liang Xuer had to settle the discharge procedures in the afternoon. When the doctor came in the afternoon for the final check-up, the assistant was clearing the dishes.
Even though the window was open, there was a faint fragrance of food in the room. The doctor casually glanced at the leftovers on the dining table and frowned slightly.
“It smells so good. What did you eat for lunch?”
Liang Xuer noticed something amiss with his expression. “Tomato brisket, what’s wrong?”
Xiao Chu stood beside Liang Xuer and was looking at him with narrowed eyes.
The doctor paused for a moment before retracting his gaze. “Oh, it’s fine. The beef is quite good. It nourishes the spleen, stomach, and blood. It’s very nutritious. Your body is fine now, so you should nourish yourself like this.”
Liang Xuer’s tensed face relaxed. “I thought something was wrong.”
By the time she was done, it was already three in the afternoon.
Li Tingshen picked her up.
A reporter rushed over when he heard the news. When he saw the two of them, he surrounded them.
“May I ask if Xu’er is going to rush to the filming location immediately after she’s discharged? From what we know, you’re hospitalized this time to rush the progress.”
Liang Xuer nodded. “I’m fine now. I’ll continue filming immediately.”
“No need.”
As soon as Ye Qingqiu finished speaking, she was rejected by Li Tingshen.
She turned to him. “Why?”
Li Tingshen said calmly, “Rest well at home.”
Sweetness surged in Liang Xuer’s heart. “Aren’t you in a hurry?”
Li Tingshen glanced at her and his lips curled into a faint smile. “Your body is more important.”
In the ward, Ye Qingqiu couldn’t hide from the news about the two of them. She played with her phone and sent a notification.
The two of them showed off their love outside the hospital.
One of them wanted to enter the production team to catch up with the progress, while the other spent a lot of money to support the entire production team, just so that the female lead could recuperate.
Looking at Liang Xuer’s touched and sweet expression, Ye Qingqiu pursed her lips.
That was true. Any woman would be touched.
He closed the webpage and switched to the game interface.

Ye Qingqiu was discharged the next day and Xiao Chu personally sent her back to her apartment.
No one came to disturb them while they were eating and drinking in the hospital. Ye Qingqiu looked much better and her face was flushed. It was hard to tell if she was in a good mood. She sat at the back and looked out of the window silently.
“Miss Ye, how have you been in the hospital?”
Ye Qingqiu glanced at him through the rearview mirror and said, “That’s right. Do you think I should save up to buy a ward in the hospital and stay there for a long time?”
Xiao Chu choked instantly.
“Miss Ye, you must be joking.”
Ye Qingqiu pursed her lips and changed her position. She leaned back in her seat and looked relaxed. “What do you want to say?”
Xiao Chu smiled awkwardly. “Actually, CEO Li eats the same food as you every day. Your three meals a day are arranged by Master. It’s light and nutritious. It’s very suitable for you to eat while you’re recuperating.”
“Oh?” Ye Qingqiu raised an eyebrow. “If you didn’t mention it, I would have felt that the food these few days was to my liking. Now that you mention it… I suddenly feel disgusted.”
This time, Xiao Chu couldn’t even maintain her awkward smile. “Miss Ye, isn’t it a waste of CEO Li’s concern for you…”
Ye Qingqiu said casually, “It’s alright. As long as Miss Liang doesn’t ruin it, it’s not considered a waste.”
She was sick, hospitalized, and had to eat three meals a day. Just the thought of it was disgusting.
When Xiao Chu heard this, she seemed to understand something.
“You don’t have to care too much about the news outside. There are too many such illusory news in the industry. Don’t just look at the surface… You’ve always known how CEO Li treats you. I believe in CEO Li…”
Ye Qingqiu suddenly chuckled. “Trust him?”
This laughter made Xiao Chu feel uncomfortable and guilty.
“I believe him…” Ye Qingqiu chewed on these words carefully as a chill rose from the depths of her body.
“Is he worthy?”
Xiao Chu trembled and looked at the rearview mirror. Ye Qingqiu’s face had already turned completely cold.
After driving silently for a few minutes, Xiao Chu’s unwilling voice sounded.
“… Miss Ye, why did you choose to plead guilty and go to jail back then? Wasn’t it because you were certain that CEO Li had different feelings for you?”
Ye Qingqiu’s eyes flickered.
“It’s heartbreaking to kill someone. Miss Ye, you’ve never seen President Li like this after you pleaded guilty and went to jail. However, I believe that with your revenge on President Li back then, he would definitely not disappoint you…”
Ye Qingqiu’s heart suddenly constricted. Even the frequency of her heartbeat felt like a struggle before death.
She tried her best, but she didn’t have any strength.
Revenge on him. Yes, yes, indeed.
“What did he look like at that time?”
She asked subconsciously, but when she said it, her gaze swept across the advertisement screen outside the huge mall. Liang Xuer’s advertisement for a certain brand flashed past and her heart turned cold.
“What will it be like? Will she be exhausted from accompanying Liang Xuer through plastic surgery?”
Xiao Chu took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart.
“For you, CEO Li will do anything. Even if he becomes the person he despises the most and is criticized by everyone.”
Ye Qingqiu’s gaze was already outside the car window. Her heart was filled with ice and snow, and she no longer took Xiao Chu’s words seriously.
“It sounds like he’s the most affectionate and devoted person in the world. I’ve become the most ungrateful and ungrateful person.”
