Chapter 222: Chapter 222: Mysterious Woman

Nan Qiao was panic-stricken, pushing Li Yehan away with both hands.

Li Yehan reluctantly left her tempting lips, and Nan Qiao gave him a resentful glance, "Li Yehan, this is my home!"

Li Yehan looked at Nan Qiao with a smile brimming on his face, then ruffled her hair, "Alright, this is your home. Go back and rest early."

Li Yehan stepped out of the elevator, watching the doors close.

He returned to his car and received a call from Li Tianhong.

No sooner had Li Yehan answered than Li Tianhong’s voice, filled with uncontrollable anger, bombarded him, "Li Yehan, you actually sent someone to harm your brother, are you even human?"

Li Yehan replied, "If I’m not human, what does that make you?"

Li Tianhong, "..."

Li Tianhong cursed angrily, "Li Yehan, I’m asking you, did you have your brother knocked out at the hospital?"

"Would you believe me if I said it wasn’t me?" Li Yehan answered indifferently.

Li Tianhong, "..."

Li Yehan then said, "Why don’t you consider whether they, mother and son, are in cahoots, framing me?"

Li Tianhong was furious but couldn’t find the right words immediately, struggling to articulate his thoughts.

Li Tianhong, almost smashing his phone after being blacklisted, was stopped by Jiang Linyu.

Jiang Linyu quickly intervened, holding Li Tianhong’s hand, her voice tender yet helpless as she tried to calm him down, "Tianhong, don’t be angry, it’s not worth harming your health. Yehan is indeed being disrespectful. Even if he dislikes me, he shouldn’t take it out on you, you’re his father. Tianhong, don’t stoop to his level. If it really comes down to it, I’ll go and apologize to him."

"You apologize to him? Does he deserve it? Don’t worry about my issues with him. This unfilial son will never escape from the palm of my hand in this lifetime!"

Jiang Linyu’s eyes flickered, and she continued in her gentle voice, "Sigh, once Yehan gets married, he’ll understand all your efforts. I’ve heard that Yehan is especially attentive to the daughter the Bai Family has just found, as if he’s determined to marry no one but her. Once Nan Qiao is with Yehan, things will get better."

Li Tianhong, "What Nan Qiao, what’s going on? How come I haven’t heard about this?"

Jiang Linyu pretended to be flustered and shook her head, "Nothing, there’s nothing going on."

"What exactly is happening, Lin Yu!" Li Tianhong shouted angrily.

Only then did Jiang Linyu speak, though it seemed forced, "I’ve heard that Bai Yurou is not the true daughter of the Bai Family; there was a mix-up eighteen years ago. The real daughter they’ve just found is named Nan Qiao. Yehan is very fond of her, has been following her around, pursuing her, intent on marrying her. I heard that Nan Qiao and Yehan get along quite well, which has stabilized his mood a lot."

Li Tianhong’s expression soured as he spoke angrily, "A woman from a humble background, what good can she have! Yehan has been accustomed to delicacies, I can understand if he occasionally wants to change his palate, but if he intends to marry such a woman, I disagree."

Jiang Linyu, "Now, Yehan is managing the company, and his personality is quite rebellious. The marriage you disapprove of, he will definitely agree to."

"That defiant son, he only knows how to go against me!" Li Tianhong slammed the table, expressing his anger.

Jiang Linyu smiled, "We, as elders, cannot control much about the children’s matters. Tianhong, don’t worry about it too much, grandchildren have their own blessings."

Li Tianhong, "I’ll handle this matter! Nan Qiao has just been found, who knows what the stance of the Bai Family is. Even if she’s their biological daughter, can she really replace Bai Yurou, who has been with them for eighteen years?"

Jiang Linyu, "Exactly, who knows what’s going through Yehan’s mind."

"I’ll talk to him later. I’ve already made a suitable match for him, and if he doesn’t accept my arrangement, I won’t allow him to continue managing the company!"

A victorious smile flitted across Jiang Linyu’s eyes as she said to Li Tianhong, "We’ve finally brought Xiao Ye back home, and this child suddenly fell ill again. Alas, poor Xiao Ye."

Li Tianhong, "I’ve already urged the hospital to find a suitable heart as quickly as possible, let’s wait a bit longer."

Jiang Linyu seemed like she wanted to say more but couldn’t.

...

Li Yehan returned home, and Lao San came in to report on the hospital’s situation.

"Li Ye collapsed in the hospital and was saved by a mysterious woman. According to investigations, this mysterious woman has superb medical skills, which is why Li Ye was able to escape danger."

Hearing of the mysterious woman, the first and only person that came to Li Yehan’s mind was Nan Qiao.

Besides Qiaoqiao, he couldn’t think of a second person with such capabilities.

"Li Ye is out of danger now, and Tianhong and Jiang Linyu both went to the hospital," Lao San continued.

Li Yehan: "You can leave now."

"Yes, Mr. Li." Lao San left.

Nan Qiao sat in the living room, his thoughts particularly deep.

To confirm his suspicion, Li Yehan made a video call.

Not long after, a charming face appeared on the screen.

Nan Qiao had just taken a shower, her hair wrapped in a dry cap, revealing a clean and seductive face.

"Qiaoqiao, did you save a young man who passed out in the hospital today? When I came to pick you up, you had just left the hospital. Was it to save him?"

Li Yehan’s voice was very soft, his gaze affectionately looking at Nan Qiao through the camera.

"Li Yehan, that person wouldn’t happen to be your friend, would he?"

Li Yehan smiled and shook his head: "Not a friend, he is Li Ye, the child of Tianhong and Jiang Linyu."

Nan Qiao: "..."

She really didn’t know that was the relationship between the two of them.

When Nan Qiao saved Li Ye, she did not feel he resembled Li Yehan at all.

There were no similarities between the two.

Oh, there was one—their gender.

Aside from that, they really didn’t look like brothers.

Li Yehan said, "Qiaoqiao, I wanted to confirm this matter by asking you. Aside from that, I have no other thoughts."

Nan Qiao understood that Li Yehan was worried she might overthink.

"I saved him out of my duty as a doctor. Li Yehan, he has a serious heart condition. Without a suitable heart transplant within a year, he is certain to die."

Nan Qiao laid out Li Ye’s situation.

Li Yehan: "I know, Qiaoqiao, you saving him doesn’t make me angry."

Nan Qiao teased, "You’re so generous, what if I save him again next time?"

"It’s possible," Li Yehan said indulgently.

Li Yehan continued, "Qiaoqiao, healing and saving people is your duty. No matter who you save, as long as you feel it’s right, then go and save them."

Nan Qiao’s heart was touched.

"Li Yehan, thank you for respecting my profession."

Li Yehan: "Qiaoqiao, you’re welcome."

As the two looked at each other through the camera, Nan Qiao felt even more of Li Yehan’s tenderness.

Nan Qiao said to Li Yehan, "Are you alright?"

Tianhong coming to look for Li Yehan was definitely not for anything good.

Li Yehan: "I’m fine, Qiaoqiao. Just seeing you makes me happy. Qiaoqiao, you’ll always stay by my side, won’t you?"

Promises are ethereal, and only through actions can one feel the sincerity of the other person.

Saying it is too easy.

Not knowing how to begin, Li Yehan took the initiative: "Qiaoqiao, you have no other choice, you must always stay by my side."
