Chapter 15 The First Huge Fortune Earned in the Capital



Hua Chenyue tugged at Li Ying's sleeve and said weakly, "Sister, don't go."

Li Ying turned around and smiled slightly: "Look carefully, which sister of yours am I?"

Hua's mother was very dissatisfied with Li Ying's way of speaking. Her son habitually called older girls "sister," but he didn't mean anything by it.

However, Li Ying seemed to have made a somewhat pointed remark to her son.

Hua Chenyue opened his mouth, then said, "I've seen my sister in my dream."

Li Ying was speechless; this was hallucinations caused by being sick for so long.

She doesn't have any of those fantasies.

"You should rest well. I'll come back tomorrow to take your pulse."

Li Ying didn't give Hua Chenyue any more shocking words, turned around and left the ward.

When he got home, he learned that Ye Jingchi had gone to Tongcheng to pick someone up.

Li Ying didn't seem to care.

Ye Jingchi had previously said that he would go to Tongcheng to pick up his grandmother, sister-in-law, and nephew.

In the morning, Li Ying and Hua Qingqing went to Hua's house again.

While everyone was out, Ye Zhonghong secretly slipped into Li Ying's room and searched high and low for a long time before finally finding a two-inch photo of Li Ying.

"Li Ying, you just wait! Once I find out what disgusting things you've done, I'll kick you out!"

Ye Zhonghong sneaked out of the house, but was seen by Aunt Li.

"Zhong Hong, what are you doing?"

Ye Zhonghong chuckled: "Aunt Li, I came to talk to my sister-in-law, but she's not here. I'm going to school now."

Ye Zhonghong ran out like lightning.

“Didn’t Zhonghong dislike Third Sister-in-law? She’s learned her lesson now.”

Aunt Li muttered to herself, not taking it to heart.

Ye Zhonghong handed the photo to the imposing man in front of her, and couldn't help but steal a glance at Leng Su.

The man was probably in his early thirties, with a neat buzz cut, striking and handsome features, and a healthy, dark complexion that made him instantly recognizable.

"This is the deposit."

Ye Zhonghong withdrew her gaze, blushing as she handed the deposit to the man.

Leng Su glanced at the photo, and the corners of his lips unconsciously turned up.

Earning two cents to investigate the same person—that's a good deal!

"Two weeks! I need to know everything about this woman in two weeks! Including how she got pregnant, and with whom!"

Ye Zhonghong never believed that the child in Li Ying's belly was her third brother's.

Leng Su nodded: "Don't worry, the money will be there, and the information will be there too!"

Ye Zhonghong was very happy, but he dared not look into the eyes of the person in front of him any longer. His eyes were cold, a coldness devoid of any emotion.

Just like his name, he's cold!

The Hua family.

When Li Ying and Hua Qingqing arrived, Hua Chenyue had just finished drinking a small bowl of porridge.

"Qingqing, your little brother ate today!" Mother Hua said happily to the two people who came in.

"Really? That's great! Chen Yue, do you still recognize me?" Hua Qingqing came to the bedside and asked, her eyes welling up with tears.

"sister."

How could Hua Chenyue not recognize his sister? It's just that he doesn't recognize Li Ying. He vaguely felt that he had seen this person in his dream yesterday, but when he saw her again today, she was indeed an unfamiliar face. However, this face was exactly what he liked.

It surpasses even the person he longs for.

As usual, Li Ying sat down first to take Hua Chenyue's pulse. When she looked up and met Hua Chenyue's infatuated gaze, her heart skipped a beat. Could it be that this kid has also fallen for her?

"His condition has stabilized. With proper care, he will be able to get out of bed and walk around soon."

Hua Chenyue grabbed Li Ying's wrist: "Sister, are you married?"

Hua Qingqing was taken aback. Why was her younger brother asking her if she was married as soon as he recovered from his serious illness?

"Chen Yue, this is my third uncle's family, my younger brother's wife."

Some things can't be left unsaid, especially for someone as easily moved as Hua Chenyue.

Upon hearing this, Hua Chenyue released his grip, his eyes instantly losing their sparkle. He waved his hand and said, "I want to be alone for a while."

Hua's mother became anxious again. Hua Chenyue had said the same thing before, and then he never opened his eyes or spoke again.

Li Ying didn't understand Hua Chenyue's feelings. She only heard Hua Qingqing say that he had fallen in love with someone he shouldn't have, and that he had suicidal thoughts because he was so heartbroken.

Now, Li Ying is the one who gave him hope, but she is also the one who shattered his hope with her own hands.

"May I have a few words with him?" Li Ying asked the others in the room with a smile.

Hua Qingqing knew that Li Ying was not a reckless person, so she gestured for her mother to leave.

After everyone left, the room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Li Ying asked, "Do you want to die?"

Hua Chenyue opened his eyes upon hearing this, turned to look at Li Ying, and found that everyone else in the room was gone.

"Life is so meaningless!"

“I used to think the same way. I’ve even died before, but I’ve found that dying is actually very simple. Living is the hardest thing.” Li Ying sat on the edge of the bed, calmly looking at Hua Chenyue: “What is the reason you want to die? Would you mind telling me? I can also tell you why I want to die.”

Li Ying recounted her experience: "If you were in her shoes, what would you do?"

Hua Chenyue fell silent.

"But I chose to live strong, not for anyone else, but for myself. Hua Chenyue, you have a good family background and are well protected. It is precisely because you are protected too much that you fall into a state of whining without reason. You feel like the sky is falling and you can't go on living if you are slightly upset."

"Have you ever thought about how much you'll be relieved if you die like this, but what about your family? How heartbroken and devastated will your family be? And the person you love won't know what you've done for them, or how much you're willing to die for them. Think about it, what a pity it would be to die like this!"
