Chapter 1031 Are you drinking Chinese medicine?
Qin Yi put the food on the table. He was clearly very hungry, but he didn't eat it, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
After a while, Qin Yi suddenly heard Chen Duo's voice, "Chen Yi?"
Chen Duo's voice came through the earphones, and it was very soft.
Qin Yi put on his headphones. "What's wrong?"
"What are you doing? I've been calling you for ages and you haven't answered."
Qin Yi seemed a little absent-minded. "It's nothing, I was just thinking about some things."
Chen Duo asked, "What's wrong? Is there anything I can do to help?"
Qin Yi originally thought that there was no need to tell Chen Duo about this matter. Although it was nothing shameful, it was still his family matter.
He told Chen Duo that he felt a little embarrassed.
But then he thought about it again, and there was nothing he couldn't say about his current relationship with Chen Duo.
This problem happened to be troubling him, and he couldn't find anyone else to talk to.
Qin Yi thought for a moment, then exited the game and called Chen Duo directly.
Over the phone, Qin Yi told Chen Duo everything that was on his mind.
After hearing this, Chen Duo exclaimed in shock, "Are all your family members this sinister?!"
Qin Yi could understand her shock, but he didn't understand the meaning behind her words.
What do you mean by "darkness"?
"It means exactly what it says. If we only consider what you've told me, I don't know what you're thinking. If it were me, I would definitely think in that direction."
Qin Yi asked, "So you also suspect it was them?"
"Of course! It's too obvious. Besides, you said you couldn't find any evidence. Isn't that just a classic case of protesting too much? If you say there's no conspiracy, I'll never believe it!"
In fact, from the very beginning, when Qin Yi learned that Qin Ce had an accident and then that Qin Ji had joined the Qin family, he already had doubts in his heart.
His doubts deepened, especially when Qiao Xing said he couldn't find any clues.
Because the more this is the case, the more abnormal these things seem.
The reason Qin Yi asked Chen Duo was that even if he had doubts, he dared not make a hasty conclusion.
Because he didn't know whether Wang Yu was resorting to any means to secure benefits for his son, or whether Qin Liang couldn't tolerate Qin Ce and therefore did such a thing.
Before Qin Ce woke up, all of this was just speculation.
The more Qin Yi thought about it, the more upset he felt.
Because no matter which outcome, he felt it was all kind of... well, you know.
No wonder Grandpa Qin specifically reminded him to protect Qiao Xing.
In all their fighting, the most innocent one is actually Qiao Xing.
After all, as Qin Ce's wife, seeing him lying in a hospital bed, not knowing when he would wake up, made her feel more distressed than anyone else.
As Qin Yi pondered, his thoughts drifted away again.
After calling Qin Yi's name several times without receiving a response, Chen Duo said helplessly, "Qin Yi, are you even listening to me?"
Qin Yi quickly said, "I'm listening, I'm listening, please continue."
Chen Duo was speechless. "I've said everything."
"Huh? You're done talking..."
Chen Duo asked, "So what do you plan to do?"
Qin Yi sat in the chair, leaned back, and looked at the ceiling. "What can I do? I've never had a say in our family matters, and it's embarrassing to talk about this. If I tell my dad what I'm thinking, I doubt he'll listen to a word."
Chen Duo could understand Qin Yi, "Indeed, even if you really knew the truth about this matter, you couldn't say it."
This wasn't the only thing that made Qin Yi feel powerless.
If the truth is as he thinks, and Qin Ji has entered the Qin family and gained everyone's approval, then the relationship between Wang Yu and Qin Liang will remain the same as before.
What about Qin Ce and Qiao Xing? Will all that they've suffered just pass by like this?
He had already guessed who was responsible for all of this, but he was powerless to do anything about it and could only watch helplessly as they enjoyed their current lives.
Qin Yi sat there thinking for a long time, and the food on the table got cold, but he didn't touch his chopsticks.
But he couldn't stand the hunger, and after thinking it over, he decided to go downstairs to the kitchen to find something to eat.
It wasn't that he disliked or targeted Wang Yu.
But with Qin Ce's situation right in front of him, he had to be extra careful.
If he gets sick and ends up in the hospital tomorrow, he'll be the one suffering.
Qin Yi went downstairs to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and thankfully found that there was still plenty of food.
He grabbed two bags of bread and a bottle of milk, and just as he was about to close the refrigerator door, Qin Yi glanced at it and saw several kinds of herbs at the very back.
The herbal medicine packet was transparent, and Qin Yi didn't recognize the herbs inside.
But he remembered that the Qin family members didn't seem to have the habit of taking Chinese medicine.
Could it be something Grandpa Qin left behind when he lived at the Qin family's house?
Qin Yi was puzzled. He closed the refrigerator door and was about to leave when he suddenly saw Qin Liang standing expressionlessly in the living room.
The living room wasn't fully lit, just a few small nightlights. Qin Liang stood there abruptly in the poorly lit living room, which startled Qin Yi at first glance.
"Dad... what are you doing standing here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"
Qin Liang asked in a deep voice, "What have you been doing all this time?"
Qin Yi tore open a piece of bread, took a bite, and mumbled, "Something came up, I had to go on a business trip."
Qin Liang snorted, "You're always so irresponsible, what could possibly be wrong that you'd go on a business trip?"
Qin Yi knew he was about to start nagging again, and said wearily, "Oh, Dad, you already have people looking into your company, and they're doing quite well, so why are you still telling me all this?"
Qin Liang got angry when he heard his brother's words about being hopeless and useless. "Don't you know who I want to hand over the Qin family to? You're always so irresponsible and never serious. Do you want to become like your brother and go against me?"
"Dad, please don't say that," Qin Liang quickly retorted. "I wouldn't dare to go against you. My brother is already in the hospital. What if I go against you and end up in the hospital too?"
Qin Liang's expression darkened, and he frowned, saying, "What did you say?"
Qin Yi realized he had talked too much, so he quickly stuffed a piece of bread into his mouth.
"...It's nothing, I'm going to sleep now, you should get some rest too."
After Qin Yi finished speaking, he prepared to go upstairs.
But as he walked past Qin Liang, he suddenly stopped.
Qin Yi took a breath and inhaled deeply.
Qin Liang gave him a strange look. "What are you doing?"
Qin Yi asked, "Are you drinking Chinese medicine?"
Qin Liang asked, "What's wrong?"
"Was this prescribed by the doctor, or..."
Qin Liang asked with a strange expression, "What exactly do you want to ask?"
He didn't say it, but Qin Yi could already guess, "It was Aunt Wang who made you drink it, right?"
Qin Liang did not deny it, "I haven't been feeling well lately, so she specifically found a traditional Chinese medicine doctor to prescribe herbal medicine for me, and it's been quite effective."
