Chapter 959: Begging Ruan Qi to Apologize (Part 2)
Ye Qingqing relied on the Sheng family as her backer and acted recklessly, but she didn't know that Mr. Sheng had already tolerated her to the limit.
"Are you going to apologize or not?!" Mr. Sheng asked with gritted teeth, veins popping out.
"I won't!" Ye Qingqing's body no longer hurt, and she felt more energetic. "I won't! Why should I give Xiao Ming—"
Bang——!
Before he could finish his words, he was completely interrupted by a big slap in the face.
Old Master Sheng used all his strength in this slap, and Ye Qingqing was almost thrown off the stretcher.
Sheng Jianan and the others didn't expect their father to be so angry, and they hurried forward to dissuade him.
"No one of you is allowed to persuade me!" Old Master Sheng roared, stopping all his children.
He stood up with a cold face, looking down at Ye Qingqing, "Today I'm going to teach this ignorant person a lesson!"
After saying that, Mr. Sheng raised his arm and held up the cane in his hand.
The expressions of everyone in the Sheng family changed instantly.
Ye Qingqing’s current physical condition can’t withstand being crutched by Grandpa Sheng!
That's made of pure mahogany. If you hit someone like that, they'll probably go straight to the operating room!
"Dad!" Sheng Kuang, who was closest to him, rushed over and hugged Grandpa Sheng's arm. "Dad, let's talk it over. Don't use violence!"
"Speak nicely? I speak nicely, but she listens!"
Old Master Sheng was trembling with anger, pointing at Ye Qingqing and yelling, "I spoiled you too much before, and I actually let you cause such a terrible disaster, bringing disaster upon the whole family! Ye Qingqing, I'm telling you this! If you don't bow and apologize to Miss Ruan today, get out of the Sheng family tomorrow! The Sheng family doesn't want a descendant like you who has no sense of shame and doesn't know right from wrong!!!"
Ye Qingqing's head was buzzing from the slap. Just as she had recovered a little, she heard what Mr. Sheng said.
Her head buzzed again and exploded.
What did grandpa say?
Get out of the Sheng family?
The grandfather who always loved her the most actually asked her to get out of the Sheng family?
How is this possible?
Ye Qingqing didn't want to believe it, but then, Sheng Kuang's calm voice sounded in her ears.
"Qingqing, because of your greed, many aristocratic families have already severed their cooperation with the Sheng family. If you continue to be stubborn and rebellious, we will have no choice but to sever ties with you. The Sheng family has so many people to support, and we can't destroy everyone's future just because of you."
“…” Ye Qingqing was completely stunned.
How did it turn out like this?
She just likes Xi Jiu and wants to be the wife of the head of the Xi family?
Why did things turn out like this?
Ye Qingqing covered her face and raised her head in a trance, her eyes sweeping across the faces of everyone in the scene.
Disappointment, indifference, resentment, heartache...all kinds of emotions were expressed on their faces, like steel knives stabbing into her heart.
Ye Qingqing's blood quickly turned cold.
She realized that what Sheng Kuang and Old Master Sheng had just said were not just angry words, but true.
If she doesn't apologize today, she will be expelled from the Sheng family tomorrow!
Ye Qingqing began to tremble violently all over.
However, the blow is not over yet.
"Um... I have something to say." Ruan Qi, who had remained silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
Everyone's attention turned to her.
The little girl standing next to the tall man tilted her head and said to Ye Qingqing, "Miss Ye, there's something your family probably hasn't told you yet."
Ye Qingqing suddenly felt uneasy.
Ruan Qi smiled softly and said to her word by word, "Miss Ye, the poison you were poisoned with was specially prepared by me. Besides me, only my master can cure it. Anyone poisoned by this kind of poison will endure seven days of torture worse than death. After seven days, you will be free!"
Ye Qingqing's face suddenly turned pale.
"What does liberation mean?" she asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, you won't die." The little girl was very considerate and gave her a reassurance.
Then, he inhumanely dropped another bombshell: "You will simply remain in a deep sleep. Of course, Miss Ye, only your body will fall into a deep sleep, but your mind will be awake. And this state of wakefulness will last until your body and brain die."
As soon as the words fell, Ye Qingqing's face turned several shades paler.
The body is in deep sleep, but the mind is clear. Isn't that a vegetative state?!
Why had no one ever told her that this poison would have such serious consequences? !
Ye Qingqing didn't want to believe what Ruan Qi said. She looked at Mr. Sheng and others, hoping that her family would tell her that Ruan Qi was lying.
"Miss Ruan is right." Sheng Kuang seemed to have truly lost the last bit of affection he had for his niece, and his tone was cold. "The reason I didn't tell you before was because your grandfather was afraid you wouldn't be able to bear the blow. But Ye Qingqing, you're twenty-two years old now. It's time to bear the consequences of your own actions."
The grand occasion shattered Ye Qingqing's only remaining hope.
She suddenly opened her eyes, but because of the stimulation, her vision went dark.
At this moment, Ruan Qi's soft but devilish voice drifted into her ears——
"So, Miss Ye, whether you want to apologize or not is up to you. If you really don't want to, don't force me. I'm packing up and leaving now."
Go away... go away... Ye Qingqing was in a daze for a moment, and suddenly she shuddered.
no!
Ruan Qi can't leave!
She doesn't want to lie in bed like a vegetable!
The strong desire to survive made Ye Qingqing jump up from the stretcher, scaring the Sheng family members who were surrounding them.
"Qingqing, you..."
"Ruan Qi!" Ye Qingqing didn't bother to talk to her family and wanted to rush over to stop Ruan Qi who was about to leave.
But she was too weak. That jump had used up all her strength. She took just two steps before she fell to the ground with a thud.
If it were any other time, Ye Qingqing would never allow herself to be so embarrassed in front of Xi Jiu and her love rival.
But now she doesn't care about anything anymore, staying alive is the most important thing!
"Ruan Qi! Stop!" she shouted while lying on the ground.
Ruan Qi ignored Ye Qingqing. She packed up the medicine box and handed it to Xi Jiu, then walked out.
Ye Qingqing's face turned pale again due to anxiety.
Can't let her go!
If Ruan Qi leaves, she will die!
Perhaps her desire for life was too strong, and Ye Qingqing's brain, which had been rotten for over twenty years, suddenly opened up its Ren and Du meridians. She finally remembered the purpose of her visit today, and without thinking, she shouted at Ruan Qi's back, "Miss Ruan, I apologize to you! I sincerely apologize to you!!!"
Ruan Qi paused.
Ye Qingqing was overjoyed when she saw her stop. She quickly looked at everyone in the Sheng family, anxious as if she was about to be reincarnated, and said, "Dad! Help me up! I need to apologize to Miss Ruan!"
Father Ye: “…”
My dear, didn't you say that just five minutes ago?
Ye Qingqing didn't want to know what she had said before. In the face of life and death, love and face were all bullshit.
She just wanted to apologize now! As long as Ruan Qi could save her, it wouldn't matter if she bowed a hundred times!
