Chapter 1955: Wait for the Day I Die

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

He didn’t have much emotions when he saw Ye Qingqiu.

Ye Qingqiu said a few words to him, but he only responded indifferently.

Ye Jianyun glanced at Ye Qingqiu and saw that she was a little disappointed, but not that sad.

Coincidentally, Ye Qingqiu looked up and met Ye Jianyun’s gaze.

Ye Jianyun had a helpless look on her face.

!!

Ye Qingqiu felt a little depressed.

“You guys go ahead. I’m leaving.”

As she spoke, she walked out. Ye Jianyun reminded her from behind.

“Xu’er is studying. Don’t disturb her.”

“I can’t be bothered to look at her! I’m not going home now!”

“Then where are you going?”

“Let’s go find our classmates!”

With that, the door slammed shut.

Li Tingshen stood rooted to the ground with his chin slightly lowered, his long and narrow eyes dark.

Ye Jianyun sighed. Although he was helpless, he still doted on her.

Later on, Ye Jianyun gave Li Tingshen his special assistant.

“I’ll tell you everything about the Li Corporation first. I’ll give you three days to familiarize yourself with it. If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask Ye Ming or me anytime.”

Li Tingshen nodded.

“In a while…” Ye Jianyun glanced at the watch on his wrist. “At ten o’clock, you will attend the meeting with me.”

When Ye Ming heard that, he suddenly looked up at Ye Jianyun.

Li Tingshen looked at him too.

Although she had never been involved in the company’s operations, not everyone could participate in this event.

A high-level meeting…

He wasn’t even an employee of the Ye Corporation.

He vaguely knew what Ye Jianyun was thinking and his eyes darkened. “I’m not qualified to participate.”

“I have the right to decide.”

How could Ye Jianyun not know what Li Tingshen was thinking?

“You don’t have to feel pressured so early. Your ability still needs to be tested. I asked you to attend this meeting mainly to let you see the situation. Since I’ve chosen you, it means that I’ve chosen to trust you.”

He looked up at Li Tingshen. “Even if things don’t go as planned in the future, I’m afraid the Ye Corporation will have to rely on you to take care of Qingqiu.”

Li Tingshen pursed his lips and remained silent.

Ye Jianyun’s attitude had always been clear. He wouldn’t force Ye Qingqiu.

Ye Jianyun coughed for a while before Ye Ming handed him a glass of water.

Ye Jianyun took it with trembling hands.

Li Tingshen frowned slightly.

Ye Jianyun took a sip of water and placed the cup on the table. After a few seconds of silence, he looked at the photo frame on the table and massaged his temples.

In the frame were photos of him, Qingqiu, and Mi Rao.

It was a photo taken when he and Mi Rao sent Qingqiu to school.

At that time, Qingqiu was wearing a beautiful pink princess dress. Her hair was especially exquisite and beautiful, and her beautiful face was overly fair and cute. She smiled, revealing two rows of white teeth and a pair of grape-like eyes.

It was the happiest and most innocent smile.

Now, he would never see her again.

Even now, the smile on her face could still be seen easily.

In his memory, ever since Mi Rao passed away, he had hardly seen Qingqiu cry.

In fact, if the servants hadn’t told him that on the day of Mi Rao’s death, she had run to the Ye family’s backyard and cried her heart out. If the gardener hadn’t heard her suppressed cries, he might never have known.

Later on, he found her and hugged her. Her soft voice was nasal as she looked at him with red and swollen eyes.

“Daddy, will Mommy never appear by my side again? I won’t be able to eat Mommy’s cake or have Mommy’s beautiful hair. I won’t be able to hear her tell me many stories about the princess at night…”

Ye Jianyun couldn’t find an answer that wouldn’t make her sad.

He could only hug her tightly.

“You still have Daddy.”

She was smart.

Her sobs sounded in her chest before she burst into tears.

The cries almost tore his heart into pieces.

Guilt, pain, heartache. There were too many emotions mixed together.

He couldn’t help but cry with her.

That was the first and last time he had heard such sad and unrestrained cries.

Later on, during Mi Rao’s funeral, she stayed silently in his arms and accompanied him without shedding a single tear.

He then learned from the red-eyed servant…

When she brought her to rest, her excessive silence made the servant worry. “Miss, if you’re sad, you can cry…”

She got into the blanket quietly and shook her head. “I’m not sad. Otherwise, Daddy will be sad.”

With that simple sentence, the servant’s eyes reddened and he was defeated.

That was the daughter that he and Mi Rao doted on…

How could he let her suffer now?

No matter how much he doted on her, he had never regretted it.

In fact, she could satisfy whatever she wanted.

“Your mother will be returning to Country M in a few days. If it’s inconvenient for you to live alone, you can come to the Li family…”

“No need.” Li Tingshen didn’t pause. “I’m fine alone.”

Ye Jianyun looked up at him. “What if I want you to take care of Qingqiu?”

Li Tingshen said calmly, “No one thinks that the Ye family won’t take good care of the little princess.”

Ye Jianyun took a deep breath and said, “Alright, go ahead.”

Li Tingshen nodded and left first.

Ye Ming said worriedly to Ye Jianyun,

“Director Ye, do you want to go to the hospital for a checkup?”

Ye Jianyun waved her hand. “You may leave.”

Ye Ming didn’t insist.

—

Ye Qingqiu called Xu Wenxuan directly.

In fact, when she said that she was looking for a classmate to hang out, she meant Xu Wenxuan, who had been close to her recently.

Xu Wenxuan rushed to the milk tea shop, out of breath.

There was a plate of cake and a cup of milk tea in front of Ye Qingqiu. She sat on the chair and looked out of the window in boredom.

Seeing him running over, she turned her head and rested her chin on her hands. There was a lazy smile on her fair and beautiful face.

“There’s nothing urgent. Why are you running so fast?”

Xu Wenxuan heaved a sigh of relief and sat opposite her. “I’m afraid you’ll take too long.”

Ye Qingqiu glanced at the time on her phone and sighed lazily. “It’s still early. What do you want to drink?”

“I’ve never drunk these before. Give me a recommendation.”

Ye Qingqiu nodded and said, “Jasmine Pearl Milk Tea is ready.”

“Okay.”

While waiting for Milk Tea, Xu Wenxuan asked, “Why did you call me out today?”

Ye Qingqiu tapped her phone screen with her slender fingers, still looking bored.

“Yes…” Ye Qingqiu replied lazily. “Thanks to you, I did well this time. The main reason is to thank you. I’ll treat you to lunch.”

“Actually, you don’t have to be so polite. While I’m helping you, I’m also learning. This is a reciprocal relationship.”

Ye Qingqiu shook her head and said, “Anyway, I’ve troubled you. I don’t want to owe anyone a favor.”

Xu Wenxuan was a little disappointed, but he didn’t say anything.

After spending the entire morning at the milk tea shop, the two of them left for the restaurant next door.

“I think girls would like to shop if they’re bored. It’s rare to see someone like you wasting time in a milk tea shop…”

Ye Qingqiu walked to the bar counter and announced her name. Then, she supported her face with her hand and smiled at him.

“Although shopping is indeed enjoyable, it’s also tiring. I don’t feel like I’m lacking anything recently. Shopping mainly depends on my mood. Besides, even if I’m lacking something…”

Ye Qingqiu blinked and said, “Usually, someone will prepare it for me.”

Xu Wenxuan nodded.

That’s right. The little princess of the Ye family was dressed from head to toe and had custom-made clothes by a designer. When the new designs were delivered to her, why would she need to shop?

Shopping at the mall indeed depended on her mood.

The reason why she chose this restaurant was mainly because Ye Qingqiu looked beautiful and exquisite in the promotional photos online.

When she came up, the young and beautiful girl picked up her phone and took a photo each. Then, she lowered her head and started to beautify the photo. After she was done, she posted it on her WeChat Moments.

She had never done such a thing before.

However, she had seen other people’s Moments and purely wanted to give it a try.

The caption read: I’m in a good mood. Thank you for the banquet.

Li Tingshen was busy until noon. He only relaxed when Ye Ming sent him a message asking him to go to the canteen for lunch.

She pinched the space between her eyebrows and tapped on the screen. She realized that the profile picture on her WeChat Moments was Ye Qingqiu.

He paused and clicked on it.

The first post was about Ye Qingqiu.

There were a few photos of delicious food and three words: Thank you for the banquet.

Her eyes narrowed slightly.

She returned to her phone and left.

The food in the company’s restaurant was naturally good and affordable.

It wasn’t exquisite.

He didn’t talk much. Ye Ming and Ye Jianyun had been together for a long time and didn’t talk much. Hence, the two of them sat together and ate silently. Occasionally, they would talk about work.

Li Tingshen didn’t feel anything, and neither did Ye Ming.

However, compared to the time he worked with him in the morning, Ye Ming was very certain now.

Li Tingshen wasn’t in a good mood.

At least it was gloomier than in the morning.

As for why?

He didn’t dare to ask or say anything.

Although she was young, she was obviously not easy to get along with.

—

He had never thought that it was easy to manage a company.

In fact, after interacting with him, he felt that way even more.

In a day’s time, she had only come into contact with some basic and superficial matters. However, there were already many links.

Li Tingshen was on edge the entire day.

Perhaps Ye Ming had said something to Ye Jianyun. Before he got off work, Ye Jianyun called.

“Don’t be in a hurry to achieve anything. You don’t have to have high expectations of yourself. The foundation is very important. It’s a process that needs to be digested slowly. In the beginning, your progress will be slow and your digestion will be thorough. In the future, it will naturally be easy.”

“Pay attention to the balance of work and rest. You’ll get twice the result with half the effort.”

Perhaps that was true.

There was still more than half an hour before work ended. After hanging up, Li Tingshen didn’t insist. He packed some documents and left the company.

On the way home, he clicked on his WeChat Moments again. The screen jumped to Ye Qingqiu’s post.

Thank you banquet…

A faint shadow could be seen on the white reflective plate.

She had to thank her classmate…

Who else could it be other than Xu Wenxuan?

Her lips curled into a cynical smile.

He exited the interface and darkened the screen.

She had suddenly informed him to enter the company to study, so the tutoring had to be canceled.

She didn’t like him that much. She was purely possessive and didn’t want to fulfill Liang Xuer’s wish.

As long as he wasn’t with Liang Xuer, she would be in a good mood.

Wasn’t she the one who was having fun with others now?

Shifting her gaze to the car window, her eyes darkened.

When she reached home, Lian Lili was instructing the servants to pack.

There were only a few pieces of clothing, mainly local specialties. There were several boxes of them.

During dinner, Lian Lili reminded him.

“I’m going back to Country M to stay for a while. I might even go out with my friends. I don’t know much about the company, so it’s useless for me to stay. I hate seeing people working for me. If there’s anything, I’ll look for Ye Jianyun to repay him…”

She dragged her voice and paused before saying slowly,

“Help him take care of his daughter.”

These words were completely different from her previous attitude.

Li Tingshen frowned at her.

Lian Lili knew what he meant and smiled.

“Otherwise, do you think Ye Jianyun cares about anything else other than the little princess of the Ye family?”

“…”

“I’m just playing along.”

Li Tingshen lowered his gaze.

She didn’t comment on Lian Lili’s words.

It was indeed.

“But my words don’t mean that you don’t care about Xu’er. You have to take good care of her too.”

Li Tingshen was a little impatient.

Lian Lili spoke again in a rare serious tone, “The debt I owe Xu’er is something I can’t make up for in my lifetime. But I can’t be indifferent and not do anything… Tingshen, just treat it as helping me.”

“Will taking good care of her reduce your guilt?”

Lian Lili shook her head. “Worth money can make me feel more at ease.”

Li Tingshen put down his bowl and chopsticks and stood up.

“If you feel guilty and want to live with a clear conscience, then you might as well push her to a place where you can never see her again. Out of sight, out of mind. That’s the best way. Keep her by your side at all times and think of ways to make it up to her…”

“Have you ever thought that one day, you will grow her appetite? Then, what do you plan to use to make it up to her? I can take care of her, but how long do you want me to take care of her?”

Lian Lili’s face turned cold. She put down her chopsticks and wiped her mouth. She stood up and looked at Li Tingshen.

“You never told me so much in the past. Why do you have such a huge reaction every time I ask you to take care of her?”

“…”

“You’re asking me how long I have to take care of her? Until the day I die.”
