Li Ying's few words of reprimand left Chi En utterly ashamed. He considered himself a medical prodigy, but today he realized that he was actually quite ignorant and incompetent.
"Been taught a lesson."
Li Ying could understand Chi En's predicament. Once this matter was exposed, it would not only ruin Pingping's reputation, but also the reputation of the Chi family.
The reputation built up over three generations will be destroyed in an instant.
Not long after Chi En left, Tong Danian rushed over to find Ye Jingchi.
"Sister-in-law, is Brother Chi home?"
"He's resting, but you seem very anxious?" Li Ying asked in a low voice.
"The man surnamed Yu committed suicide in prison."
What?
Director Yu committed suicide!
There are only two possible outcomes: either he committed suicide out of guilt, or he took the blame for someone else. In either case, it will be very difficult to find out the truth.
“I had already anticipated this.” Ye Jingchi walked into the living room, sat down, and fiddled with his lighter. His tone was indifferent. “For him, his daughter is his life. From the day he learned that Yu Pingping was beyond saving, he was prepared to die. The other party took advantage of this to dare to do this.”
"His trail has gone cold. It will be very difficult to continue the investigation, and even if the real culprit is found, there will be no way to prove it," Tong Danian said with great concern.
This matter is neither a major nor a minor one; if not handled properly, their police station will be put in the spotlight.
"Just follow the directions I told you to investigate, and you'll definitely find out!" Ye Jingchi instructed.
"Okay!" Tong Danian turned around and strode away.
Li Ying glanced at Ye Jingchi but didn't say anything.
Ye Jingchi's tone turned colder: "I don't believe there's such a thing as love and hate without a reason in this world; there must be some untold story behind it!"
In the afternoon, Chen Wen sent someone to tell Li Ying that Shi Bai had woken up.
Li Ying immediately set off for the hospital.
In the ward, Shi Bai lay weakly.
"Second Senior Brother."
“Junior Sister…” Shi Bai reached out his hand, “It was just a little bit more…”
We're almost there to extract the toxin.
"Second Brother, once you've recovered, we'll continue our research and we'll definitely be able to extract this toxin."
Shi Bai nodded emphatically, opened his mouth, but his voice was hoarse and his words were unintelligible.
Li Ying put her ear to Shi Bai's mouth and listened as he said a name.
"I've written it down."
Li Ying patted Shi Bai on the shoulder: "Second Senior Brother, you should get some rest!"
After leaving the ward, Chen Wen followed, saying, "Your second senior brother's emotions are not very stable. The doctor said he needs to stay in the hospital for observation and needs to be taken good care of."
"Thank you for your help."
Chen Wen shook her head: "It's not troublesome, I just don't understand who wants to blow up the research lab!"
"The police will definitely find out!"
After saying that, Li Ying turned and left.
After leaving the hospital, Li Ying quickly hid behind a tree. A raggedly dressed man chased after her, holding a dagger.
Just as the man was about to get close, Ye Jingchi appeared and kicked him down from behind.
The other party suddenly threw a packet of powder, and after the smoke cleared, they ran away.
Li Ying, who was about to rush over, covered her nose after smelling the powder.
Are you alright?
Ye Jingchi dispersed the smoke and pulled Li Ying to a place with fresh air.
"I recognize her, it's Rong Ning!"
"No wonder Tong Danian's men couldn't find her now that she's disguised like this!"
Li Ying believes that it wasn't Rong Ning's disguise that made it hard to find her, but rather the powder in her hand.
She used a powder that could cause shortness of breath and fainting. This powder was very difficult to obtain, and Western pharmacies had strict controls on its sale. How did Rong Ning, a fugitive, get it?
There must be someone behind Rong Ning.
Ye Jingchi inhaled the powder and soon developed symptoms, clutching his chest.
"Ye Jingchi, hurry up, let's go back!"
Li Ying struggled to help Ye Jingchi home, then asked Aunt Yang to pour some hot water for Ye Jingchi to drink.
Ye Jingchi coughed for a long time, almost coughing up his lungs, before he felt much better.
Ye Jingchi gripped Li Ying's hand tightly, while tugging hard at her collar with his other hand.
"I feel a little unwell."
Li Ying was surprised to find that the powder contained aphrodisiacs. She helped Ye Jingchi back to the bedroom, opened the first-aid kit, and gave Ye Jingchi an injection first.
Once the needle was inserted, Ye Jingchi felt much better.
Sweat dripped down his sharply defined chin onto his clothes, exuding an alluring charm.
Li Ying inexplicably felt her mouth was dry and quickly withdrew the needle.
Ye Jingchi sat up, hugged Li Ying from behind, and nuzzled her neck.
"Ye Jingchi, you're injured, don't move!"
"Just let me hug you, I'll hug you for a bit."
Ye Jingchi was breathing heavily, trying his best to endure the discomfort in his body. His hot breath poured into Li Ying's collar, and waves of heat rose and fell in the room.
Ye Jingchi tightened his arms, his lips brushing against Li Ying's neck a little too much. Li Ying turned around, cupped Ye Jingchi's cheeks, and kissed his lips.
When their moist lips met, Ye Jingchi felt much better. He tried his best to control his impulses, gently rubbing Li Ying's lips together for a long time before letting go and lying on the bed.
"You can go out now."
He was truly afraid that he wouldn't be able to control himself and would hurt Li Ying. Li Ying was pregnant, and he absolutely couldn't do anything too extreme.
Li Ying didn't say anything, got up and went out, closing the door behind her.
After dinner, Li Ying browsed through ancient books in the study until late at night. She then closed the book, stretched, looked up, and saw her shadow reflected on the window, and paused for a moment.
