She couldn’t wait to see Qin Shu unable to defend herself.

  Fu Tingyu’s expression when he was completely disappointed in her.

  Xu Wei suppressed the anticipation in her heart and waited quietly.

  Fu Tingyu stared at the photo in the dark and felt that the figure on it was very familiar.

  After looking at it for a while, he took out his phone and dialed Gu Yan’s number.

  After the call was connected, he said, “Come to the Fu Residence.”


  Gu Yan stopped flipping through the medical book and asked, “Is there anything important?”


  Fu Tingyu said, “I’ll let you take a look at the photo.”


  Photo? Gu Yan’s eyes flashed with doubt, but he did not ask, “Okay, I’ll go over now.”


  After hanging up the phone, he closed the medical book and stood up. He put the medical book back on the shelf and then turned around to go downstairs.

  However, before he went out, Ye Xing suddenly came to visit him.

  After Gu Yan came back from the capital, Ye Xing also came to Jiang City. She often came to see Gu Yan for treatment and wanted to recover her memory as soon as possible.

  Gu Yan asked, “What’s the matter?”


  Ye Xing rubbed her head and said, “I have a headache these days. Is it a sign that I’m going to recover my memory?”


  Ugh! ! !

  Gu Yan glanced at Ye Xing, “It’s not a headache. It’s a sign that you’re going to recover your memory. Of course, I can’t rule it out.”


  Ye Xing was like a studious student who didn’t know how to ask, “Is there any difference between the two?”


  Gu Yan felt a headache coming on. This academic question was really hard to explain, and it wasn’t something that could be explained in a short period of time.

  Seeing that he didn’t answer, Ye Xing asked again, “What’s wrong? Is my way of asking wrong? Or should I not ask like this!”


  Gu Yan saw the clock behind Ye Xing and said, “No, this is an academic question. It will take a while to explain.”


  Ye Xing smiled. “It’s okay. I’m fine for now. I can listen to you slowly.”


  Uh!

  Gu Yan looked at the clock again. He felt a little helpless, but he thought that it should not be a problem to delay it for more than ten minutes.

  “Then sit down first. I’ll tell you.”


  “Okay.” Ye Xing had been here a few times, so she didn’t need Gu Yan to say anything. She walked to the sofa and sat down, waiting for him to say something.

  At the dessert shop

  Qin Shu felt a little sorry after hearing about what happened between Ye Xue and Jiang Yu, but Jiang Yu felt that it was a little irresponsible.

  “Ye Xue, don’t worry. When Jiang Yu comes back, I’ll help you beat him up.” Qin Shu clenched her fist, gritted her teeth, and said hatefully.

  Ye Xue hurriedly grabbed Qin Shu’s clenched fist, as if afraid that she would beat up Jiang Yu in the next second. “There’s no need, Qin Shu.”


  Qin Shu said, “What’s wrong? I haven’t even beaten him up yet, and your heart aches already?”


  Ye Xue did not shake her head and deny it. “Jiang Yu actually made it very clear from the beginning. I don’t know if he likes me, and he wants to try dating me. Whether he wants to date me or not depends on me.”


  When Ye Xue said this, her voice lowered again. “I still feel that I’m too bad, so Jiang Yu has been dating me for a few months, but he still doesn’t like me.”


  Qin Shu said, “You’re already very outstanding. You have your grades, looks, and cooking skills. Jiang Yu didn’t like you because he was blind. You’ll definitely meet a man a hundred times better than Jiang Yu.”


  Ye Xue said in a low voice, “There’s no need for such a good man. I don’t have such high expectations.”


  Shi Yan returned to Sheng Yuan and didn’t see Qin Shu. He took out his phone and dialed Qin Shu’s number.

  Qin Shu still wanted to console him, but when she received a call from Shi Yan, she had no choice but to pick up the call first. Perhaps the man had asked Shi Yan to call her.

  After picking up the call, she asked, “Shi Yan, what’s the matter?”


  Shi Yan asked, “Where is Young Madam now? Fourth Master asked me to pick you up at the old residence.”


  “I’m outside. He’s at the old residence, right?” Qin Shu asked.

  Shi Yan replied, “Yes, Young Madam.”


  “I’ll go by myself.”


  “Fourth Master asked me to pick you up. Just tell me the location,” Shi Yan said.

  Qin Shu did not think much about it and gave the address. “Are you coming to Sunshine Tea?”


  “I’ll be right there.”


  After hanging up, Qin Shu said to Ye Xue apologetically, “Are you feeling better now?”


  Ye Xue replied with a smile. “I’m much better.”


  Qin Shu heaved a sigh of relief. “I’m going back to the old residence. I’ll treat you to some delicious food some other day.”


  Unknowingly, after chatting with Qin Shu for so long, Ye Xue felt a little embarrassed. “Sure, you can do your own thing first. I’ll go back after drinking the milk tea.”


  “Okay, just text me if there’s anything.”


  Qin Shu then left Sunshine Tea.

  After drinking the milk tea, Ye Xue carried her backpack and walked out of afternoon tea.

  As she walked along the street casually, she accidentally bumped into someone. She instinctively lowered her head and apologized, “Sorry, sorry, I didn’t mean it.”


  After apologizing, she continued walking. However, she didn’t expect to be grabbed by someone’s arm, giving her a fright.

  When she raised her head, she saw Zhou Yizuo and was stunned for a few seconds.

  That was because when she was in Imperial City, Zhou Yizuo had looked for her a few times after she was with Jiang Yu.

  Jiang Yu and Zhou Yizuo had even quarreled and almost fought. At that time, she had been scared to death.

  After that, she had not looked for him again.

  Zhou Yizuo asked, “What’s wrong?”


  Ye Xue was a little embarrassed. “Nothing’s wrong with me. I’m just shopping.”


  Zhou Yizuo looked as if he had seen through her. “Are you unhappy?”


  Ye Xue hurriedly shook her head. “No, I’m fine.”


  However, Zhou Yizuo said, “Your lying skills are really bad. Your unhappiness is written all over your face.”


  “Really?” Ye Xue reached out to touch her face in disbelief.

  Then, she heard Zhou Yizuo laugh. Only then did she realize that she had been deceived. Her face instantly darkened.

  Zhou Yizuo stopped laughing in time. “Did Jiang Yu bully you?”


  Ye Xue’s face stiffened at the mention of Jiang Yu.

  Zhou Yizuo was also stunned. “I was right?”


  Ye Xue ignored him and continued to walk towards the bus stop.

  Zhou Yizuo hurriedly chased after her. “I didn’t say that on purpose, and I didn’t mean to laugh at you.”
……

  On the way to the old house, Shi Yan’s car drove very steadily. Then, he passed the soda biscuits that he had prepared beforehand to Qin Shu.

  Qin Shu did not get carsick, but her pregnancy reaction had caused her to feel a little dizzy. When she saw the soda biscuits, she smiled. “You’re still thoughtful.”


  Shi Yan looked up at the rearview mirror and said, “Young Madam is joking. It wasn’t Shi Yan who was thoughtful. It was Fourth Master who ordered it.”


  When Qin Shu heard this, her smile deepened, and it was a little sweet.

  The man was really thoughtful and considerate.

  She opened the package and took a piece of biscuit and chewed on it. The biscuit wasn’t sweet, but it was sweet in her heart when she ate it.

  After arriving at the old house, Shi Yan slowed down the car and stopped. He didn’t make Qin Shu feel uncomfortable at all.

  Shi Yan opened the car door. Qin Shu got out of the car and walked straight in.

  After walking for a while, she arrived at the front hall.

  When she walked in, she saw the Old Madam sitting on the sofa. Xu Wei was sitting beside her, and the man was sitting across from her.

  However, the atmosphere was a little different from usual. It was a little depressing.

  The moment Qin Shu entered, the three people in the living room all raised their heads and looked over. Their gazes were all different.
