Ye Li didn't sleep well that night.
I dreamt in the first half of the night that I was locked in a zoo, and all the cages on all sides were wide open.
A tiger strolls leisurely outside.
The lion stretched and squinted as it sized her up.
There was also a leopard perched high in a tree, poised to pounce.
Turning around again, she saw a giant elephant with thick legs like pillars, thicker than her, flapping its big ears and raising its front legs at her.
Surrounded by danger, she didn't even know where to run.
In her dream, Ye Li kept running, and she could even feel the wind rushing past her ears.
The scene shifts to a swamp.
It was pitch black all around, and every movement caused my body to fall uncontrollably.
The feeling of being pressed against the chest by silt, making it hard to breathe, was particularly oppressive and heavy.
A vast expanse of darkness enveloped her, and Ye Li jolted awake, meeting Qin Chu's bloodshot eyes.
"neat?"
Ye Li was stunned. "You... how did you get here?"
My birthday is over.
The parking lot is also safe and sound.
After having lunch with Yao Wanying yesterday, Qin Chu returned to Sicheng with Lu Xizhou.
I just received a call from Ye Li, asking her to find someone to check the hospital surveillance footage from October 22nd of last year.
Shortly after, Qin Chu flew back to the capital.
After staying up all night to watch the surveillance footage, Qin Chu finally understood why.
On the one hand, I feel there is a misunderstanding.
On the one hand, I couldn't stop my wild thoughts, and the more I thought about it, the more frightened I became.
Seeing Ye Li's bloodshot eyes and dark circles under her eyes, Qin Chu felt both heartache and anger.
"No matter how good your boyfriend is, he's never as important as your girlfriends."
Qin Chu opened his arms and gave Ye Li a big hug, whispering in her ear, "Li Zi, I'm here!"
Ye Li wanted to laugh.
However, my eyes are extremely sore and swollen.
Afraid that her mother and Aunt Lan would notice, Ye Li got up and rushed into the bathroom.
After washing up, Aunt Lan suspected that Li Xueqing had stolen food yesterday. The evidence was a piece of pork rib in the trash can in the ward, while there were no bones in any of the three meals she had prepared yesterday.
Li Xueqing looked completely innocent. "I didn't do it! Sister Lan, don't talk nonsense! I'm a patient right now, and a patient's good mood is very important! If you frame me like this, I'll be sad and upset. If I'm sad and upset, I won't be able to eat. If I can't eat, I'll have to eat the breakfast you brought, and then you'll stuff yourself until you're stuffed, and then..."
Aunt Lan raised her hand to indicate that she was wrong. "Madam is wise and mighty. How could Madam steal food? She must be old and blind and have seen wrong."
Li Xueqing retorted again: Just kidding, Sister Lan isn't old at all, okay?
Two elderly sisters begin today's dose of mutual flattery and compliments.
Ye Li breathed a sigh of relief and took Qin Chu's arm as they left the ward.
More than half an hour later, the two entered the studio.
Qin Chu went to Ye Li's office at the end of the road.
Ye Li opened the computer at the front desk and found the delivery time of the USB drive in the express delivery registration.
Then, the front desk surveillance footage was accessed.
The USB drive was sent to her studio on her birthday.
The deliveryman who came to deliver the package was a regular customer, as seen in the surveillance footage.
He was in charge of the entire Jingyue Building area. Every time he came to YL Studio, the receptionist would give him a bottle of water when he left.
Ye Li's heart sank several degrees.
Since it was sent through a legitimate courier channel, the person who sent it to her would certainly not have left any trace for her to find out.
An email address that cannot be traced.
The sender could not be traced.
Suppressing her inner turmoil, Ye Li turned and went into her office.
The computer screen was split in two: on the left was the video Ye Li had received, and on the right was the original video that Qin Chu had someone copy from the hospital.
When zoomed in at the same time, the images on the left and right sides are synchronized and consistent.
There was no malicious editing.
There is no misunderstanding.
Not to mention that Fu Yanci himself admitted that he had been to the hospital.
After watching the second video, the huge office fell into a deathly silence.
Qin Chu's fists are all hard.
After a long pause, he realized that it was Fu Yanci, the famous Master Fu in the capital.
Qin Chu's shoulders slumped slowly. "Pear, what... do you plan to do?"
Ye Li shook her head. "I don't know."
She genuinely didn't know.
Regarding the Ye family's bankruptcy, Fu Yanci said he didn't do it, but Ye Li believed him.
After all, such a trivial matter wouldn't warrant such a big fuss from Master Fu.
It's highly likely that someone from the subsidiary contacted Lantu on their own initiative.
In this world, who would complain about having too much money?
Ye Li didn't know who to believe regarding Xiao Bao's matter.
On one hand, I felt that a dying person's words are often wise, and Li Li's words were clear and unambiguous, so what was there to question?
On the one hand, she felt that Fu Yanci had no reason to lie to her.
After all, Xiao Bao came first, and then she, Madam Fu, came into the picture.
Whether Xiao Bao was her son or her nephew made no difference to her at the time.
She needs Fu Yanci to help the Ye family out of their predicament.
Fu Yanci wanted to use her as a weapon in his hands.
Her marriage to Fu Yanci was agreed upon from the very beginning; it was a mutually beneficial and cooperative partnership.
If she hadn't fallen in love with him.
If she doesn't want to break the ice, she'll willingly become Li Li's substitute.
Perhaps she and he can eventually grow old together?
However, her father's death was a hurdle that Ye Li couldn't overcome in her heart.
If he didn't upset his father, and as he himself said, he just stopped by to ask a few questions when he was passing by, then what was there to hide? Why did he have to talk to her face to face?
