Chapter 244: Is Li Jingshen taking advantage of someone's misfortune?
Yue Mingzhu knew very well that if it weren't for the prescription given by the miracle doctor, Long Yutong might have died long ago. "Compared to the beginning, you are much better now. Don't worry, take your time."
Long Yutong, "It's not you who's itching, you can't feel it at all."
"Okay, mom understands it. Stop thinking about it and have a good rest." Yue Mingzhu was upset, even more upset than her.
Qiao Xi returned to the hotel and sat on the sofa in the lobby. She felt a little heavy in her heart, but after meeting Wei Gang, she felt more hopeful.
Long Junye invited guests to have dinner here. He usually went to the Imperial Palace for his social events. He came here because he thought she might live here.
When he saw her in the hotel lobby, he felt a little relieved. At least she listened to him and probably didn't live with Tang Jin anymore.
Qiao Xi just glanced at him, then moved her eyes to the screen of her mobile phone, which was opening a web page but she didn't read it.
Long Junye asked Gao Han to take the guests to the private room first. He walked over to her and sat down. "Moved to the hotel?"
Qiao Xi hummed.
Long Junye touched her head and said, "Very good, very obedient."
"You're overthinking it. It's just that it's more convenient to stay in a hotel and I don't need to cook for myself." Qiao Xi moved to the side and kept a distance from him.
Long Junye didn't know what to say, and the atmosphere was a little quiet.
Qiao Xi didn't want to stay in the guest room alone. Facing four walls made her feel a little nervous, so she sat in the hotel lobby. Seeing that he didn't say anything, she was still a little disappointed, so she stood up and left.
Long Junye stood up and held her back, "Why, you don't even want to sit with me for a while?"
Qiao Xi pried his hands apart, "Long Junye, don't do this, we've already separated!"
"Who said we should separate?" Long Junye said the same thing, "Qiao Jinnian and his wife's affairs have nothing to do with you. You are not their biological daughter."
Qiao Xi felt a little disappointed. "You are wrong. Their business is my business. I can't possibly cut off my relationship with them."
"Also, the matter has not been investigated clearly. Whether it was your parents who killed my parents, or my parents who indirectly killed your parents, remains to be verified. Don't just listen to other people's one-sided words."
"There's no need to investigate this further." Long Junye was certain that it was Qiao Jinnian and his wife who killed his parents. As for what happened to Qiao Jinnian and his wife afterwards, it was just what they deserved.
According to the Long family's methods, this is still light.
"I'll find out." Qiao Xi shook off his hand. "So, we can't be together anymore. I know you're also very conflicted and embarrassed. Why torture each other?"
Long Junye wanted to grab her again, but stopped when his hand was halfway up in the air. He felt a little weak, and even dreamed about his deceased parents for several days in a row.
He had suspected the cause of his parents' death before, but the doctor also gave his judgment that his mother died of an accident and his father died of a sudden heart attack.
No one told him that there were other reasons, and no one told him that it was indirectly caused by Qiao Jinnian and his wife.
The lawyer also told him that there were no other factors.
Some time ago, I contacted several veterans in the company who had a good relationship with Long Yuan, and they all gave the same answer. The reason why I didn't tell him at the time was Long Yuan's intention because I was afraid that he would be in danger.
He also said that he was now able to stand on his own feet and should do something for his parents. It was a pity that Qiao Jinnian and his wife had passed away, so he couldn't take revenge even if he wanted to.
According to them, although Yue Mingzhu was a bit cruel, it was all instructed and arranged by his mother. Yue Mingzhu was just an executor. Was it equivalent to avenging him?
Of course, Long Junye knew very well who Yue Mingzhu was, but he believed that Yue Mingzhu did all these things just to take over the Long family and the Long Group, and not out of any affection for her brother and sister-in-law.
Qiao Xi glanced at his stopped hand and walked away. They were enemies and were destined not to be together. He saved her life and she healed his legs, so they were even.
Qiao Xi didn't need to think about what she still owed him, she just couldn't bear to leave him. Every day she lived with him was happy, but this happy time was too short.
When I reached the elevator door, I couldn't help but look back.
He was still standing there, also looking at her, but neither of them moved. She got into the elevator and he walked towards the spiral staircase. The box was on the second floor, so he walked straight up.
Li Jingshen was standing not far behind them. He had just seen this scene. He still liked Qiao Xi, but he was not someone who would take advantage of someone in distress.
Chu Lan walked towards him, "Brother Jingshen, you're back? Haven't you eaten yet?"
"Yeah." Li Jingshen replied perfunctorily.
"Then let's eat together tonight. I'll ask Qiao Xi to come along." Chu Lan knew that he would only agree if Qiao Xi was there.
Li Jingshen seemed a little hesitant. What would people think if he approached Qiao Xi at this time? But he was a little impulsive in his heart. He couldn't bear to see Qiao Xi being wronged.
"I called her and she said she would go to the restaurant later." Chu Lan didn't care whether he was willing or not.
"Okay." Li Jingshen had nothing else to do, so he agreed.
Qiao Xi didn't say much, her face looking a little solemn. She could understand Long Junye's behavior, but she was also quite disappointed in him.
Li Jingshen ordered a few dishes that Qiao Xi liked. "What are you thinking about? Otherwise, tell us and we will analyze it for you."
Qiao Xi shook her head. "Nothing, I'm just not in a good mood. I'm sorry for affecting your atmosphere."
Li Jingshen smiled and said, "What are you talking about? We are friends and should care about each other. Did you have a fight with Long Junye?"
Qiao Xi, "It's not a quarrel, it's... I guess he and I are just not meant to be together. Or maybe, we are just meant to be together but not meant to be together."
Li Jingshen poured her a glass of water and said, "Don't say that. Some things are better if you just let them go."
"It's hard to get over this kind of thing." Qiao Xi herself couldn't get over it, let alone Long Junye. "Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's eat well."
The dishes are here.
Normally, no matter whether she was in a good mood or not, she could heal herself with delicious food. But at this moment, Qiao Xi had no appetite at all, as if she couldn't eat anything. She was obviously hungry, but every dish seemed inedible.
It turns out that sometimes, even delicious food can’t heal.
"How about changing a few dishes?" Li Jingshen called the waiter.
Qiao Xi shook her head, "No, I don't have much appetite. I won't be able to eat any other dishes. Let's just eat these."
"Okay." Li Jingshen picked up some dishes for her, "You still have to eat something anyway, otherwise your body won't be able to take it."
Qiao Xi also knew this, but the problem was that she really couldn't eat at the moment. Even though her stomach was growling with hunger, she still had trouble swallowing.
"I'm going to the bathroom." Qiao Xi seemed to be feeling a little nauseous.
Li Jingshen followed him worriedly and stood outside the bathroom door.
Qiao Xi poured some water on her face, trying to calm herself down. Her heart felt like it was being pressed down by a huge rock, and she couldn't let it go.
When she came out of the bathroom, she felt dizzy and almost fell down. Li Jingshen quickly hugged her, "What's wrong?"
Long Junye was standing not far away answering a phone call. Seeing this scene, he frowned and walked towards them...
