Chapter 2056: Three Days

Ye Lixun frowned and grabbed Ye Qingqiu’s arm.

Ye Qingqiu turned her head and smiled at her. “I’m just going to take a statement.”

“No way!”

Ye Lixun interrupted her domineeringly. There was no room for rejection.

The faces of the law-enforcement officers darkened. “Madam, if you continue to obstruct us, we have the right to punish you according to the law.”

“How dare you!”

“I’ll go with you!” Ye Qingqiu suddenly interrupted Ye Lixun. “Auntie, this isn’t overseas.”

Ye Lixun narrowed her eyes.

After being spoiled for so many years, she had gradually forgotten about the situation in the country.

“Auntie, go back and visit Grandpa first. Arrange for someone to guard my father. I’ll go with them first.”

“… Also, Auntie, can you leave first? I… don’t want you to see me being taken away. It looks like you’re sending me away for something…”

She admitted that it was ridiculous to think of such pretentious things, but she was probably such a pretentious person.

Ye Lixun closed her eyes and took a deep breath. “I’ll go with you!”

“No need. Too many things have happened in the past two days. I haven’t done anything yet. I don’t know anything. I’ll leave it to you to arrange for your return. You don’t have to follow me. Save some time and do other important things.”

Ye Lixun was silent for two seconds. “…Alright, I’ll arrange to pick you up immediately.”

Ye Qingqiu nodded. “Yes.”

*

After Ye Lixun left.

Two law enforcement officers stepped forward. One lifted her hands. The other took out handcuffs.

Seeing the handcuffs, Ye Qingqiu’s pupils constricted and she quickly retracted her hands.

The indifferent and compromising look was suddenly replaced by fear and panic.

“What do you want?”

“Miss Ye, you’re a suspect. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, please cooperate with us.”

“I don’t want… I don’t want to wear it!”

She was the eldest daughter of the Ye family. How could she wear that?

“I promised to go with you. I won’t run, so I don’t need this!”

The leading officer said again, “If you don’t cooperate, don’t blame us for taking mandatory actions.”

Compulsory…

In fact, they had already done so. Before Ye Qingqiu could retort, they grabbed her hands tightly. With a click, a pair of cold handcuffs appeared on her slender and fair wrists.

Ye Qingqiu suddenly felt a lump in her throat. She bit her lips and tears almost fell from her eyes.

She clenched her fists tightly, her body trembling before she slowly released them.

After being sandwiched between the two of them, Li Tingshen’s slender figure stood at the entrance of the safe passage. His face was cold as he looked at her calmly.

She slowed to a stop.

“Mr Li.”

The leading officer nodded at him.

Li Tingshen’s eyes were fixed on the woman’s face and his gaze slowly landed on the cold handcuffs on her hands.

His pupils constricted imperceptibly as he clenched his fists tightly.

After a while, he asked, “Do you still want to go with your aunt?”

Ye Qingqiu looked at him coldly. It was clearly the hottest season, but she felt the cold air entering her body from every pore.

Her beautiful face was filled with fear and panic just now, but now she was facing him.

From calmness to anger, to indifference, and then to a mocking smile.

“Is this the outcome of not provoking you? The Ye family hasn’t fallen yet. Li Tingshen, not to mention that I didn’t hurt anyone, even if I did, the Ye family will ensure my safety. You want to use this method to make me compromise? Let me tell you… that’s impossible! How long can you lock me up?”

Li Tingshen’s narrowed eyes looked even more dangerous. It was as if something was struggling to climb up the abyss. The hand in his pocket was clenched tightly again. In a place where no one could see, the veins on the back of his hand bulged and his joints turned pale. The blood in his palm stopped flowing.

“Don’t overdo it, Ye Qingqiu.”

His tense voice was hoarse, as though something was stuck in his throat.

Ye Qingqiu smiled and muttered, “Quit while you’re ahead…”

She looked down at the silver handcuffs in her hand. “Is this the goodwill you’re giving me?”

After saying that, she didn’t look at Li Tingshen’s expression or wait for him to say anything. Instead, she took the lead and walked away.

“Weren’t you in a hurry to go back and take a statement? Aren’t you in a hurry now? Even if you’re not, I’m in a hurry to go home.”

The two law enforcement officers immediately followed.

Before walking out of the hospital, Ye Qingqiu suddenly stopped.

Looking at the handcuffs on his hands, he said calmly, “Can you cover me?”

The law enforcement officer borrowed a protective suit from the front desk and wore it.

Ye Qingqiu’s eyes flashed.

It was ugly.

She was really ugly.

*

They got into the police car and went straight to the nearest police station.

She was brought straight to the interrogation room.

She was arranged to sit on the interrogation chair. She suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and pretended to look around casually.

The interrogation room was not very big. There was a single-sided glass on the opposite side and a surveillance camera in the corner of the wall. The interrogation table opposite was dyed with a layer of cheap paint and there was a video recorder on it. There was nothing else worth mentioning.

The office environment was not good.

Two law enforcement officers in uniforms with pistols at their waists stood there expressionlessly.

The interrogation didn’t start immediately.

Ye Qingqiu sat there quietly. She lowered her head and used her hand to press on the spot where the paint had fallen.

Time passed minute by minute.

She was thinking that she had seen police dramas before.

Some people dragged the interrogation on and most of them were using psychological tactics.

But did they have to?

She wasn’t the one who had hurt him.

The door opened and Li Tingshen strode in.

Through the glass, she looked at Ye Qingqiu, who was sitting on the interrogation chair with an indifferent expression.

In less than a minute, the interrogator pushed the door open and entered.

She said that she was cooperating with the investigation to record a statement. This was clearly an interrogation.

Liar.

The recording began.

The interrogator let her explain what had happened.

She said it completely cooperatively.

She told him every detail she could think of.

This included her telling Lian Lili that she and Li Tingshen were already married and asking her if Li Tingshen loved her…

“She’s mentally unstable. She’s a lunatic. She went crazy with a knife and suddenly grabbed my hand and stabbed herself…”

At this point, Ye Qingqiu was suddenly stunned. Her fingertips trembled slightly. “She grabbed my hand and stabbed herself. This shouldn’t count as me hurting someone, right?”

The interrogator didn’t respond.

Ye Qingqiu frowned. “Is the statement over? If it’s over, can I go back?”

*

Li Tingshen’s gaze was fixed on her expression. After a long while, he said slowly,

“She’s the closest participant in this matter. Whether it’s intentional or not, she naturally won’t listen to her side of the story. Before that, she shouldn’t leave this place, right?”

Xiao Chu was also listening to Li Tingshen. When she heard Li Tingshen’s words, her eyelids twitched violently.

What… was CEO Li trying to do?

Was he going to lock her up in the police station?

But on second thought, the person who was injured was his mother.

Such a reaction seemed normal.

But…

After all, she was his wife.

Moreover, Madam had just explained the entire process without any hesitation.

Did he not believe her?

The law enforcement officer nodded. “Since she’s a suspect, we won’t let her go before we get to the bottom of the matter.”

The door to the interrogation room opened and someone whispered something to the interrogator.

Ye Qingqiu watched as the interrogator lowered his head and nodded as he listened. She suddenly felt uneasy and said again,

“Is it over? I’m going back!”

“Sorry, Miss Ye, the matter hasn’t been investigated clearly. You can’t leave yet.”

Ye Qingqiu’s hand on the table suddenly trembled violently. Her face seemed to have been drained of blood as her voice trembled.

“So… what do you mean?”

*

Ye Lixun didn’t dare to tell the bedridden old man that Ye Qingqiu had been brought to the police station.

She missed Ye Qingqiu. The father and daughter whom she had not seen for a few years had only stayed by the old man’s bed for less than ten minutes before leaving in a hurry.

When she reached the police station, the interrogation had just ended.

However, she only waited outside for two minutes. When she didn’t see the person who was supposed to come out, her patience was exhausted.

The few people outside were also dealing with other matters. When they weren’t paying attention, she stood up with a cold expression and strode in.

“Hey, lady!”

Someone saw her and shouted hurriedly. Ye Lixun quickened her pace but was stopped by someone from the police station.

“Move aside! Didn’t you say that you want to bring her here to cooperate with the investigation? Bring her to the interrogation room to record her statement? Are you done?! Hand her over!”

“Madam, calm down. The person will come out after the interrogation…”

“You’re admitting to the interrogation now?! I knew it…”

She was about to continue when a door beside her opened and Li Tingshen walked out.

Ye Lixun paused and looked at him coldly.

Li Tingshen saw her immediately and stopped in his tracks.

Ye Lixun flung her hand away and strode over. She looked up at the man who was much taller than her.

“Where’s Qingqiu?”

Before Li Tingshen could reply, the door beside him was suddenly opened.

The two of them walked out with Ye Qingqiu.

Seeing Ye Lixun, Ye Qingqiu’s pale face finally showed signs of helplessness and fear. However, she also saw Li Tingshen standing at the side.

She wanted to ask Ye Lixun for help, but she swallowed her words.

He was here?

Her gaze landed on the door behind him. Xiao Chu was still standing there.

Not only was he here, but he had also witnessed the entire process of her interrogation.

Also, the decision to detain the suspect here…

After figuring everything out, she suddenly gave a cold laugh.

Seriously…

Impressive…

When Ye Lixun saw the handcuffs on Ye Qingqiu’s hands, her pent-up anger surged wave after wave.

“Why did you handcuff him?”

“Auntie,” Ye Qingqiu suddenly said, “They don’t intend to let me go. I don’t want to stay here. I want to go to the hospital to see Daddy. I haven’t seen Grandpa yet. I still want to find Brother Ye Ze…”

Ye Lixun nodded immediately. “Okay, don’t worry. I’ll arrange it.”

“There’s no need to make any arrangements.” Li Tingshen suddenly spoke slowly. When Ye Lixun’s gaze landed on him, he said, “The matter hasn’t been investigated clearly. She injured my mother. No matter what, she can’t leave now.”

Ye Qingqiu’s face froze.

Ye Lixun stared at his cold face and suddenly stepped forward to slap Li Tingshen’s face.

Li Tingshen’s face was slapped to the side, and a bright red handprint appeared on his handsome face.

“Qingqiu’s mother passed away early. I slapped you on her behalf!”

Li Tingshen’s jaw tightened and his wrists tensed up.

“Do you know the meaning of a woman getting married? A married daughter is like water that has been splashed out. Her husband’s family is her home for the rest of her life. Her husband is her heaven, her land, and her haven. She has to trust and rely on him for the rest of her life! The two pillars of the Ye family have collapsed. Just as she was feeling helpless, what did you do?”

Ye Qingqiu’s eyes flickered.

Ah… She suddenly missed her mother.

Hmm… That was why the husband she had been shamelessly pestering wasn’t her god, her land, his haven, or the person she relied on.

She really couldn’t bear to hear this.

Every single one of them was a thorn in her side.

Li Tingshen’s gaze landed on her face.

He looked at her expressionlessly and indifferently. His voice was low and persistent.

“Are you still leaving?”

Ye Qingqiu bit her lips hard. “Li Tingshen, my father is still in the hospital…”

“So, are you still leaving?” He asked the same question stubbornly.

Ye Lixun narrowed her eyes. “Qingqiu…”

“Li Tingshen, do you think… we can still be together? If my father wants to leave, I will definitely leave with him…”

Li Tingshen nodded calmly. “Okay, I understand.”

He turned around and retracted his gaze, which landed on Ye Lixun’s face.

“If you’re so confident in the Ye family’s power, you can try and see if you’ll get her out. I’ll give you three days. If you can get her out, you can do so based on your abilities. If you can’t, we’ll meet in court in three days.”

Ye Qingqiu’s breathing suddenly synchronized and she froze on the spot.

After saying that, Li Tingshen strode away without looking at her again.

Behind him, Ye Qingqiu’s dazed voice sounded coldly. “Are you going to sue me again? Li Tingshen, my father is still in the ICU. Do you have to sue me now?”

Li Tingshen’s footsteps stopped slowly. Xiao Chu, who was still in shock, saw Li Tingshen raising his right hand to pinch the edge of his left sleeve. The expensive white shirt cuff had been deformed by him.

“It’s simple. As long as you say you’re not leaving, you can leave immediately.”

Ye Qingqiu stared at the tall and slender figure for a long time before sneering.

“If I say I’m not leaving, will you believe me?”

The man’s body stiffened.

“You don’t believe me.”

Ye Qingqiu continued, “You won’t believe me if I tell you the truth. You won’t believe me even if I lie. Tell me, how are we going to continue? Li Tingshen, I can’t live with you…”

After a long while, Li Tingshen strode out and said coldly.

“Three days.”
