After the Betrothal Gift Negotiation Failed, I Turned and Married the Tycoon

Due to issues with the betrothal gift, Qiao Xing's two-year relationship with her boyfriend collapsed overnight. Feeling disheartened, her elderly neighbor insisted his grandson go on a blind d...

Chapter 133 Wasn't he here to make peace?

Qiao Xing said, "It's nothing. I just tried calling Qin Ce but couldn't get through. I was wondering if you were with him."

"No, I'm at the company right now. He probably didn't go to work today. Aren't you two together?"

“We were just together a moment ago. He said he was going to the hospital to coordinate with Lin Yu and wouldn’t let me go. I thought you two were together, so I wanted to ask you.”

Yang Han hesitated for a moment. Was Qin Ce going to go to Lin Yu for mediation himself?

Is it possible to adjust that?

Unless he reveals his identity, the conflict will only escalate.

Qiao Xing also felt that Qin Ce was completely irreconcilable. He could tell how awful Lin Yu was from last night, so how could he let it go so easily?

As for Qin Ce, needless to say, he is a strong-willed person. After getting to know him for so long, Qiao Xing felt that he was more stubborn than an ox, and he would never lower himself to Lin Yu.

If this goes on and on, the two might even end up fighting.

"No, he's not with me. But don't worry, I'll go check on him when I'm done with my work."

"That won't be necessary..."

Yang Han didn't give her a chance to speak, "It's okay, it's okay, he's my good brother, his business is my business!"

"Sister-in-law, I have to go now, I'm a bit busy here, I'll hang up now."

He seemed very busy; he spoke much faster than usual.

Qiao Xing stared at the disconnected phone, then lowered his head and fell silent.

She couldn't help but think that Qin Ce had never told her anything about his affairs, but it was always her affairs that troubled him.

Wang Ye's matter has caused him a lot of trouble. Last time, it even caused his car to be towed away. Now, he rides his electric bike to work with her every day without complaint.

This time too, it was because of her affair with Lin Yu that he got into trouble.

He seemed to have never spoken ill of her, never blamed her, and never even uttered a word of complaint.

The more Qiao Xing thought about it, the more suffocated she felt.

They weren't really a real couple, but Qin Ce did better than most real husbands.

She never imagined things would turn out this way when she got married.

Her mind was in turmoil, filled with conflicting emotions. She felt inferior and regretted that Qin Ce didn't like women.

——

After finishing her work, Yang Han went to the hospital.

He went to Lin Yu's ward first, but no one was there. He didn't know if Lin Yu was asleep or had fainted.

He took out his phone to call Qin Ce, but the call didn't go through.

Having no other choice, he had to use his extensive network of connections to check the hospital's surveillance footage.

Qin Ce was eventually found in the infusion room.

Qin Ce was just finishing his last bottle of the infusion. His face was still very pale, and it was unclear whether it was from the pain or because he had lost the infusion too quickly.

He turned the IV drip rate to the maximum; while others received one bottle, he received two.

Qin Ce was looking down at his phone and didn't notice Yang Han had arrived.

"Hey, your phone has battery, why can't I get through?"

Qin Ce paused, then suddenly looked up at Yang Han, "You called me?"

At this point, he pulled out another phone from his pocket, which was indeed switched off.

Yang Han forced a smile and sat down next to him. "What's wrong with you? My sister-in-law told me you went to see Lin Yu, so why are you here getting an IV drip?"

Qin Ce put away his phone, glanced at him, and said, "We had hot pot."

He also emphasized, "Medium spicy."

"..."

Yang Han gave a thumbs up, "Wow, I can't even handle mild spicy, and you dared to order medium spicy? Are you trying to challenge your limits and break through your own boundaries?"

"Qiao Xing ordered it."

Yang Han asked in surprise, "Didn't she know you have a stomach problem?"

Qin Ce shook his head, changing the subject, "What do you want from me?"

Yang Han stared at him, clicking her tongue, her eyes conveying a mixture of sympathy and admiration.

"Old Qin, you're finished."

Qin Ce frowned. "What do you mean?"

Instead of answering, Yang Han asked, "Shall we go out for hot pot tonight?"

Qin Ce's eyes were so cold they seemed capable of freezing him to death. He gave Yang Han three words: "Get out."

Yang Han laughed heartily, "See, see? You're finished! You're doomed!"

Qin Ce was stunned for a moment, and then he realized what Yang Han meant. His expression was somewhat complicated.

"Right? I asked you to go eat hot pot, and you told me to get lost. Qiao Xing asked you to go eat hot pot, and you ended up in the hospital. Sigh... what are we going to do now?"

"Yes." Qin Ce sighed, leaning back as if to himself.

Yang Han's smile faded, and he looked at Qin Ce with confusion. "What's wrong? Isn't this great? You two are a perfect match. You love her, and she loves you. Isn't that wonderful?"

Perhaps thinking of Xiao Lin, Yang Han became melancholy.

Qin Ce didn't want to talk about this. He looked at the empty water in the bottle, pressed the tape on the needle, and said to Yang Han, "Pull it out."

"Call a nurse, I don't know how."

"Just pull it out, hurry up!"

Yang Han glared at him speechlessly, carefully pinched the needle, but before she could even pull it out, Qin Ce pulled his arm back and pulled the needle out, making Yang Han shudder in fright.

Good heavens!

Qin Ce stood up and walked out of the infusion room. Yang Han followed behind him and asked, "Where are you going? Are you going to see Lin Yu?"

"yes."

Qin Ce walked to the elevator, pressed the button, and went inside.

Yang Han scratched his head and followed them inside.

When they arrived at Lin Yu's hospital room, Fang Ya and Zhang Yu were both there. Zhang Yu was busy taking care of Lin Yu, while Fang Ya stood by and watched coldly.

She had several medical reports and injury assessments on her side, and the results of all the assessments indicated that the injuries were minor.

She was very angry and was wondering where things had gone wrong.

Yang Han knocked on the door politely.

Fang Ya turned around when she heard the noise, and when she saw Qin Ce, her face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

"You actually dare to come here? You beat Lin Yu up like this, and I didn't even bother to cause you any trouble, but you came looking for me first!"

Qin Ce glanced at the appraisal report on the table, pulled up a chair, and sat down not far from Fang Ya.

"So you want to sue me? Well then, it seems my presence here was unnecessary."

Fang Ya sneered, "Don't be arrogant. I'm not done with you yet. Let me tell you, Qin Ce, I won't believe you if I don't send you to jail!"

Qin Ce stared at her calmly, leaned back, and adopted a boss-like posture. "It's very simple if you want to send me in."

Fang Ya was stunned for a moment, not understanding the meaning of his words.

Qin Ce raised his chin, gesturing for her to look at Lin Yu on the bed, "You can kill him now and frame me."

Fang Ya: "...What did you say?"

Yang Han: ? ?

Wasn't he here to make peace? He's here to provoke us!

Yang Han had indeed underestimated him. How could this guy possibly take the initiative to reconcile with someone?

Especially since the person who beat his wife, asking him to reconcile with Lin Yu is harder than killing him.

Qin Ce said, "I never repeat myself."

Fang Ya jumped up from her chair in anger, and Zhang Yu quickly put down the kettle and came over to mediate, "Xiao Ya, calm down..."

Fang Ya abruptly shook her off. "You want me to calm down? Do you want to hear what he said?"

Fang Ya pointed at Qin Ce, "He told me to kill your son! And you actually told me to calm down? You've got a really big heart. Lin Yu is really unlucky to have a mother like you!"

Zhang Yu was pushed by her and lost her balance, falling to the ground. Elderly people have brittle bones, and once she sat down, she clutched her back and couldn't get up for a long time.

Fang Ya was angry and didn't pay any attention to her. After all, how far could she fall?

Lin Yu, who was in bed, was awakened by the noise. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw his mother fall to the ground. He tried to get up, but he was too badly injured and collapsed back down.

He could only stare wide-eyed, gritting his teeth as he called Fang Ya's name from the bed.

"Fang Ya!"
