Chapter 249 Xia Yue's risky encounter with Qin Yeting

Two hours later, Ye Ya returned.

Ye Ya travels with a grand entourage, accompanied by six armed bodyguards. Even after entering the Qin family's inner courtyard, these bodyguards did not remove their weapons.

Xia Yue looked closely at Ye Ya, who had a strange scar on her face.

It didn't look like a knife wound, nor did it look like a burn. As a doctor, she couldn't make a judgment about the injury at first glance.

Xia Yue had some doubts.

But since it was impolite to stare at someone's face, she had to look away.

Observing Ye Ya's entire figure, for some reason, she had a feeling of familiarity.

It feels like I've seen this person before.

But if she had seen it before, she would definitely remember it. Why can't she recall it?

Xia Yue pondered carefully and tried hard to recall, but her mind remained blank.

There was nothing she could do but give up, guessing that there were probably many people with this body type, which was why she felt familiar with it.

At this moment, Song Qing, who was originally sitting in the hall, stood up immediately upon seeing Ye Ya, then knelt down to express her gratitude.

"Qing'er thanks Madam Qin for saving her life!"

"Get up," Ye Ya said calmly, then sat down to the left of the main seat.

The position on the left is more prestigious than the one on the right; that should have been the position of the old Qin family head.

Throughout the entire process, the Qin family patriarch remained seated on the right. After his daughter-in-law returned, the Qin family patriarch even stood up and took the initiative to greet Ye Ya.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, these are guests from the business, here to congratulate you on your discharge from the hospital," the old Qin family head introduced firmly.

Xia Yue found this strange.

The old Qin family patriarch's attitude towards Qin Yeting's mother was perhaps a little too respectful.

This doesn't seem like they're treating a daughter-in-law; it's more like they're treating a superior.

But Ye Ya seemed to enjoy this situation, and said coldly, "Since you are a guest, then stay for a meal before you leave."

"Thank you for your kindness, Madam Qin, but the Shang family has many important matters to attend to, so we won't disturb you any longer." Second Master Shang was a shrewd man.

He keenly sensed that something was amiss at the Qin family home, and it was best to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.

But Xia Yue didn't want to leave; she wanted to continue investigating Qin Yeting's whereabouts.

Xia Yue asked directly, "Madam Qin, I've been good friends with Qin Laoda for many years. He's suddenly disappeared, and I'm very worried. Could I see him?"

"He has the Qin family's protection, so he'll be fine. Young Master Shang, you don't need to worry." Ye Ya used the same excuse, directly rejecting "Shang Zexi".

But Xia Yue wasn't so easily dismissed and continued to press, "Then can you tell me what's wrong with Boss Qin? Could it be that his intermittent mental illness has flared up again? This is definitely not a trivial matter!"

Mentioning this seems to have touched a nerve with Ye Ya.

Ye Ya said with a dark face, "He is not mentally ill. Those quack doctors were just talking nonsense!"

"What exactly happened to Boss Qin?"

"This has nothing to do with you!" Ye Ya glared fiercely at "Shang Zexi".

If it weren't for the sake of the merchant, given the level of anger this first wife was in, she probably would have shot "Shang Zexi" dead.

Seeing this, Master Shang knew that this was a taboo subject and he couldn't let Xia Yue continue asking.

He said directly to Xia Yue, "We should go!"

"I haven't seen Qin Yeting yet, I'm not leaving," Xia Yue insisted.

Master Shang could only threaten, "If you don't leave, don't blame me for turning hostile!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Yue had no choice but to be wary.

She is currently assuming Shang Zexi's identity and cannot cause trouble for Shang Zexi and the Shang family.

She thought about it again and again, and held back again and again, before finally looking at Ye Ya.

She gritted her teeth and said reluctantly, "Madam Qin, I'm so sorry to have bothered you today."

"I know you are Xiao Ting's friend, and I won't make things difficult for you, but from now on, the Qin family will no longer welcome you."

Of course, this will not affect the cooperation between the Qin family and the merchants.

Ye Ya directly issued an order to expel him and a ban.

Seeing this, Master Shang knew when to stop, grabbed Xia Yue's sleeve, and walked out.

Xia Yue was forced to leave with Master Shang.

After leaving the inner courtyard, where there was hardly anyone around, Master Shang finally spoke, "I'm sorry, but for the sake of the Shang family, I have no choice but to do this."

"It's okay, I understand," Xia Yue replied softly.

But she began to worry about Qin Yeting; she wanted to save her lover.

The more the Qin family prevents her from seeing them, the more suspicious it seems.

Since she couldn't be seen openly, she acted in secret.

Just then, Song Qing returned, giving her a new opportunity.

So, after leaving with Master Shang, Xia Yue quietly returned.

She waited at the door for several days, and except for when she had to go back to treat patients, she hardly left.

Three days later, she finally saw Song Qing leave the house!

Xia Yue directly followed the person and, taking advantage of their unsuspecting state in the shopping mall, knocked them unconscious, kidnapped them, and disguised them—a one-stop service!

Subsequently, Xia Yue used Song Qing's identity to return to the Qin family.

This identity proved to be very useful; she entered the inner circle, which was Ye Ya's residence, without any effort.

After making some inquiries, new information was learned this month: Qin Yeting was being held in a secluded residence of the Qin family.

Xia Yue used Song Qing's identity to sneak in and found Qin Yeting unconscious in bed.

Because of the glass door, she couldn't go in.

If we get any closer, we'll be discovered.

Xia Yue's heart clenched instantly.

That doesn't look like a normal coma.

What exactly happened to her Ah Ting?

Was it poisoning? Or was it another episode of intermittent psychosis?
