Chapter 346: Chapter 244: Dogs and Xu Jiucheng Are Not Allowed Inside_3

"Qiao Meng, let Shen Qingli come out!"

Mengmeng gritted her teeth, "I told you, Sister Qingli isn’t here." Seeing that Fu Tingzhou clearly didn’t believe her, Qiao Meng had no choice but to tell the truth, "She... she’s sick, in the hospital!"

Xu Jiucheng furrowed his brows tightly.

Qiao Meng ground her teeth, looking straight at Xu Jiucheng, "It’s all because of you, rushing the work in three days, she neither ate nor drank nor rested much, and last night she fainted and was taken to the hospital, Lord Jiucheng, I vaguely know that you and Sister Qingli have some past grudges, but you can’t bully her like this, rather than tormenting her, you might as well end it quickly! He hates her, despises her, then let her stay far away from you, why bother to seek discomfort! Why insult and bully her like this!"

Xu Jiucheng said, "Which hospital is she in?" Seeing that Qiao Meng didn’t speak, the man intensified his tone, "You better answer truthfully! Qiao Meng, I don’t have such a lot of patience."

"Central Hospital, emergency department."

Xu Jiucheng turned and left with large strides.

Xia Yao hurriedly followed him.

But the man walked so fast, by the time Xia Yao rushed out, Xu Jiucheng had already driven away, kicking up dust, Xia Yao stamped her feet and shouted, "Lord Jiucheng, I’m not in the car yet!"

She bit her red lip, damn Shen Qingli!!

-

Xu Jiucheng drove straight to the Central Hospital emergency department.

At the nurse’s station, the man asked urgently and coldly, "I’m looking for Shen Qingli."

"There is such a patient in bed 21."

Xu Jiucheng arrived at the ward, it was a double room, bed 20 was occupied by a car accident victim, at the moment surrounded by visitors.

And further inside, was bed 21.

Shen Qingli lay on the hospital bed, the woman wearing a light blue striped hospital gown, her lips pale. She bowed her head, tapping on a tablet with her fingertips, working on design drafts. A needle was set into the back of her hand, currently administering fluid.

Xu Jiucheng saw that the woman’s fingers were nearly swollen.

He walked up to the hospital bed.

Shen Qingli kept her head down, paying no attention to her surroundings, assuming the person next to her was a relative from the next bed. But in the air filled with the smell of disinfectant, she caught a hint of a scent that made her expression tense and go numb.

Her fingertips paused, slowly lifting her gaze.

The two looked at each other for a long time, silent.

Shen Qingli averted her gaze, she said in sign language, "What are you here for?"

"Is the hospital owned by your family? Why can’t I come here?"

This remark successfully choked Shen Qingli.

She sneered coldly, then directly lied down turning her back to him.

Xu Jiucheng was not annoyed, "You don’t have to play poor in front of me, completing a dress in three days, for ten times the price. Shen Qingli, don’t you just want money? Just ask me directly, I’ll give you anything you want, money, power, we can make a fair trade."

Shen Qingli pursed her lips, her back tensed.

Her fingers clenched tightly, the fine pain in her fingertips making her involuntarily tremble.

"You’re just like your parents, disgusting, stubborn and foolish, yet unable to change your greedy nature!"

Shen Qingli violently turned and glared at him, "What right do you have to talk about my parents! If it weren’t for them adopting you, where would you be now! My parents were right, you’re nothing but an ingrate!"

Xu Jiucheng stood up and precisely grabbed her chin with his hand, his voice cold and oppressive, "I am indeed an ingrate, and it was you who brought me back."

"I regret it, if I could go back to that year, I would leave without looking back. If you were dying in front of me, I wouldn’t spare you a second glance!"

"Unfortunately, there’s no such thing as regret medicine in this world, nor any what-ifs. The current outcome is the Shen Family’s bankruptcy, don’t you want to save your father? Just watching him suffer in prison?"

"Let go of me!" Shen Qingli hit at his hand.

He pinched her chin, causing a bit of pain.

Xu Jiucheng caught her fingers, touching the needle holes on her fingertips, from sewing that cheongsam, her fingers had been pricked dozens of times, at the moment the woman’s face was pale with pain.

Xu Jiucheng frowned, but then slowly let go of his hand.

"How about I show you a video of your father in prison?" he said, pulling out his phone and opening a video.

In the video, a middle-aged man is laboring, suddenly two young men grab him, pushing him into a corner and beating him.

Shen Qingli’s complexion turned deathly pale.

She glared at Xu Jiucheng.

Xu Jiucheng’s lips curled into a complacent smile, "How about it? Are you satisfied?"

Shen Qingli lowered her head, biting down hard on the fingers Xu Jiucheng used to pinch her chin, using a lot of force.

As if wanting to bite off a piece of him.

There was no expression on Xu Jiucheng’s face, only the corners of his eyes imperceptibly trembled slightly.

He watched her painful expression, yet his smile deepened.

"Shen Qingli, you just said you regret saving me, too bad you can’t change anything."
