"Understood!"

Zhang Quan was instantly filled with excitement, twisting his neck and loosening his wrists.

It's been a while since I've had a fight, my hands are itching to get going.

"What, what do you want to do?" Seeing his posture, Huang Yumei had a bad feeling and took a step back.

"You'll find out what I'm planning in a moment."

Zhang Quan delivered a sharp slap to her face immediately, the sound of the slap being crisp and loud.

With a single slap, he sent Huang Yumei slamming into the wall.

"What are you doing?" Huang Yumei covered half of her face, angrily trying to retaliate.

Zhang Quan slapped her again, leaving her dizzy and disoriented.

"Murder! Murder!"

Huang Yumei's hair clips and earrings were knocked off, and she was so frightened that she burst into tears.

Her piercing screams instantly echoed down the corridor.

Some people at the nurses' station heard the commotion, but none of them dared to look over, fearing they might get beaten up too.

Quan Ye rubbed his ears, somewhat impatiently, "Zhang Quan, she's too noisy."

Zhang Quan grabbed Huang Yumei by the back of her collar, dragged her to the stairwell, closed the door, and continued to beat her.

"Ahhh—"

Huang Yumei's screams were incessant.

Quan Ye glanced down at the time and saw that it was almost time. He walked over, knocked lightly on the elevator door, and then strode away.

Zhang Quan opened the door upon hearing the noise and followed him out.

Huang Yumei lay on the ground, crying uncontrollably. Blood was dripping from the corners of her mouth, and her eyes were covered in black panda eyes. It was a tragic yet comical sight.

"Damn it, you actually hit me! What right do you have to hit me? Waaaaah!"

Su Li stood on the balcony in a black spaghetti strap nightgown, holding a cup of hot milk in her hand, her gaze constantly drifting into the distance.

Quan Ye returned home quite late that day, it was already past 10 p.m.

Seeing the car slowly drive in, Su Li immediately put down the milk and ran downstairs.

As soon as Quan Ye got out of the car, he saw her slender figure running out of the house, her skirt fluttering with her movements, graceful and beautiful.

"You're back. What did the doctor say?" She came up to him.

The smile in his eyes faded slightly. "If your first question was whether I had eaten, I think I would be very touched."

She pouted, "Oh, have you eaten yet?"

"I ate during a business dinner."

Quan Ye put his arm around her slender waist and led her into the house.

"Zhou Kai has already been handed over to the medical team. You don't need to worry, just wait for news."

"good."

He walked to the sofa and sat down, then looked up and gently rubbed his eyebrows and eyes, looking very tired.

Seeing him like this, Su Li couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

Let me pour you a glass of milk.

She tried to leave, but he grabbed her wrist and pulled her onto his lap.

The other people in the living room automatically left.

He gently stroked her hair, leaned against her neck, and inhaled the faint scent of shampoo.

"I failed to protect you before, and you suffered because of me."

"What are you saying, Mr. Quan? You have no obligation to protect me."

"If I could, I would protect you for the rest of my life."

"Um?"

Su Li's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at him in shock.

However, his expression immediately returned to normal, his eyes showing no emotion, as if he had just said those words casually.

My phone suddenly rang in my pocket.

Quan Ye seemed very tired and didn't want to answer at all.

Su Li reached into his pocket, pulled out his phone, and saw that it was a call from Qin Xuan.

He glanced at it and said casually, "No need to answer, this kid never does anything serious."

Su Li waved her phone and said, "Sorry, my hand was shaking, I've already clicked it."

Qin Xuan's voice rang out from the other end, "Come on, now that you have a wife, you don't care about your brothers anymore. It's time for our fake brotherhood to come to an end."

Su Li got goosebumps all over when he heard the word "wife".

Quan Ye: "Say what you have to say quickly, don't waste our time together."
