Chapter 42: Sickness
Ye Xingzhou was still in a meeting when he received the news.
Qi Xing and Ye Wanqing were fighting fiercely. When the security guards went over to stop them, they found that both sides had already seen blood. A sharp-eyed security guard recognized Qi Xing and did not dare to deal with it on his own. He did not listen to Ye Wanqing's shouting to call the police and directly reported the matter to Ye Xingzhou's secretary, and then Ye Xingzhou knew about it.
The board meeting ended early, and Ye Xingzhou went downstairs to the security department in person.
In the security department's office, Qi Xing was leaning on the sofa with a sullen face, both legs resting on the coffee table. The bruises on his face did not hinder his arrogance, even in someone else's territory.
Opposite him, Ye Wanqing had blood all over his face and was still grimacing, urging people to call the police and shouting that he would teach Qi Xing a lesson until Ye Xingzhou walked in.
Ye Xingzhou glanced at Ye Wanqing with contempt and his gaze fell on Qi Xing.
Facing Ye Xingzhou, Qi Xing finally realized a little awkwardness and silently turned his face away, revealing the red and swollen half of his face.
Ye Xingzhou's expression darkened slightly. Ye Wanqing immediately stood up and said to him sinisterly, "This lunatic suddenly attacked me in the underground garage. I want to call the police."
He already knew Qi Xing's identity, but he had nothing now. A barefoot man is not afraid of those wearing shoes. He just wanted to get his revenge. He didn't care which family Qi Xing was from. It would be better if he could ruin the cooperative relationship between Ye Xingzhou and Ronghua Capital.
Ye Xingzhou had heard about what happened on the way here, and he reminded him coldly: "You were the first to make the move. There are surveillance cameras. You can call the police if you want."
Ye Wanqing felt guilty for a moment, then gnashed his teeth in hatred. Qi Xing immediately agreed: "Yes, yes, he was the first to start. If you want to call the police, just call them and let the police judge the matter."
Although Ye Wanqing was beaten badly by him and one of his front teeth was lost, one side of his face was also swollen. When adults fight each other, the police will try to smooth things over. He is not afraid at all.
Anyway, he beat the guy up and he felt good.
Ye Xingzhou took out his cell phone and asked Ye Wanqing: "Do you want me to call the police for you?"
When he met his eyes, Ye Wanqing thought of his brother who had been sent to prison. He was scared and afraid that Ye Xingzhou would use some dirty tricks, so he didn't insist on calling the police. In the end, he gritted his teeth and left cursing.
Qi Xing snorted, "You bastard, you just know how to put on airs."
Ye Xingzhou glanced at him coldly and signaled, "Turn up the surveillance."
Qi Xing was stunned and immediately asked, "Why are you still watching the surveillance video when he's gone?"
Ye Xingzhou ignored him and insisted on having someone check the surveillance footage.
Since the big boss had spoken, of course others listened to him and quickly checked the surveillance video. It happened that there was a camera near where Qi Xing and Ye Wanqing were standing at the time. Not only was the picture high-definition, but even the sound was recorded clearly.
Ye Xingzhou remained indifferent to Ye Wanqing's words calling him a "bastard" and his expression did not change at all. However, when Qi Xing said those words "If you scold Ye Xingzhou, it's my business" and "It's not okay for you to scold him" during the confrontation with others, his eyebrows moved and he looked at Qi Xing with a meaningful look.
Qi Xing: “…”
I shouldn't have said anything if I had known this. He is really meddling in other people's business.
"Let's go back."
After watching the surveillance video, Ye Xingzhou said nothing and motioned Qi Xing to go home with him.
Qi Xing groaned and stood up reluctantly. There was no trace of the arrogance he had when facing Ye Wanqing just now.
Sitting in Ye Xingzhou's car, he covered his mouth and hissed. He was only concerned about the pleasure when he first started, but now the aftereffects finally took effect and it was really painful.
Ye Xingzhou reached out his hand, and his cold fingertips touched the swollen part of his face. Qi Xing subconsciously shrank back and frowned, "Don't touch me, bastard."
Ye Xingzhou: "Does it hurt?"
Qi Xing: "Try it yourself to see if it hurts."
But he probably forgot that Ye Xingzhou had been beaten black and blue by him several times, so this was nothing.
Ye Xingzhou took his hand back: "If it hurts, remember it and fight less next time."
"Who am I doing this for?" Qi Xing said angrily, but then he felt that the words were meaningless. He glared at the bastard and turned his head away.
After returning home, Ye Xingzhou took out the medicine box and tapped the sofa with his chin for Qi Xing to sit down. Qi Xing was full of complaints and was not very happy. He sat down and didn't want to pay attention to anyone.
Ye Xingzhou sat next to him, stretched out his hand to pinch his face, stared at his colorful face for a moment, and when Qi Xing was impatient and wanted to lose his temper, he suddenly said: "Thank you."
Qi Xing was speechless for a moment.
Ye Xingzhou took out the ointment and began to apply it to him.
Disinfect the abraded area with iodine and then apply medicine. Another ointment is for reducing swelling. Apply it to the red and swollen area that is not bleeding and rub it.
"A good night's sleep will reduce most of the swelling. Apply it twice more tomorrow and it will be healed in two days." Ye Xingzhou reminded casually.
Qi Xing felt a little uncomfortable when his hand rubbed his face. He laughed dryly, "Master Ye is really experienced. He must have used this medicine a lot, right?"
After he finished speaking, he hissed again and glared at Ye Xingzhou, the bastard, who actually deliberately used a cotton swab to press on his wound.
Ye Xingzhou didn't bother with him anymore. After helping him apply the medicine, he washed his hands and went to the kitchen to make coffee.
Qi Xing followed him and was about to speak when Yang Kaiming called and asked him where he was and why he hadn't arrived yet.
Qi Xing had completely forgotten about this and said awkwardly, "I'm not going."
Yang Kaiming: "Were you captured by your godfather again?"
Ye Xingzhou took his phone and answered it himself: "What's up?"
Yang Kaiming on the other end of the phone was silent for a second, said "Nothing", and hung up quickly.
Qi Xing snatched the phone back: "Are you sick?"
Ye Xingzhou let him talk and continued to make coffee.
His own cell phone also rang. It was his uncle calling. The phone was placed next to him, and Ye Xingzhou neither answered nor hung up. He just treated it as background noise.
Qi Xing glanced at Lai Xian and said with a smile, "Are you teasing that old man on purpose?"
Ye Xingzhou: "Let him do whatever he wants."
The bell rang three times before finally stopping. Qi Xing could almost imagine the old man's furious look: "I'm talking to you, do you have a good temper or a bad temper? That jerk just scolded you like that, and you didn't even react at all?"
Ye Xingzhou's calm look when watching the surveillance video just now is still vivid in Qi Xing's mind. He is really curious, does this person really not care about any of this?
Ye Xingzhou didn't even raise his eyelids: "Didn't you help me beat him up? And what he said is not true at all, why should I be angry?"
Qi Xing: “Hmm?”
Ye Xingzhou handed him the brewed coffee: "I am not an illegitimate child, my mother is the original wife, the one who got a marriage certificate with Ye Chonglin."
Qi Xing's eyes showed surprise, and Ye Xingzhou asked, "Are you surprised?"
Qi Xing: "Then why do people outside say..."
"You said I was an illegitimate child?" Ye Xingzhou sneered, "If you don't say that, how can it seem that Ye Chonglin and that woman are legitimate?"
When talking about his biological father, Ye Xingzhou not only called him by his name, but also spoke in a cold and contemptuous manner, and explained it to Qi Xing in a few words.
Ye Xingzhou's mother was indeed the original wife of the old man of the Ye family. When he was young, the old man of the Ye family was also blinded by love. In order to marry Ye Xingzhou's mother, who came from a poor family, he gave up his status as a rich young man and eloped with her. They got a marriage certificate and had a child. But within a year or two, love was defeated by reality. The old man Ye abandoned his wife and children and returned home, and obediently married someone who was of equal status.
"That woman knew about my mother and me, but she still insisted on marrying Ye Chonglin. After the marriage, she was suspicious that Ye Chonglin and my mother were still connected. She kept causing trouble for us, and finally sent my mother to a mental hospital. My mother died, and I went to an orphanage when I was eight. I was adopted by Ye Chonglin and brought back to the Ye family when I was fifteen. Because he was old and in poor health, he didn't want the Ye family to be completely controlled by that woman and her three sons, so he thought of me."
Ye Xingzhou's tone was so indifferent, as if he was talking about someone else's business. Qi Xing opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. For someone like him who had loving parents and a harmonious family and grew up in a honey pot, it would be a lie to say that he could empathize with him. But he did feel uncomfortable when he heard Ye Xingzhou say that. It was inexplicable, and it was obviously none of his business.
"and you……"
"It's not without benefits. At least I have been pretending to be an honest and good son in front of him for more than ten years, which really made him trust me and gave me most of the company's shares. The combined share of Ye Wanqing and his mother and son is only equal to mine. Although those parasites in the Ye family are biased towards them, the other shareholders and directors of the company do not want the Ye family to really become a one-man show, so they would rather choose me."
"So how did your father die?"
Qi Xing blurted out the question and immediately regretted it. If it was really Ye Xingzhou who did it, wouldn't it be inappropriate for him to ask someone such a private matter?
Ye Xingzhou took a sip of coffee and said calmly, "He had a heart attack and fell in front of me. I kicked away his medicine."
Qi Xing: “Oh.”
Ye Xingzhou's eyes fell on him: "Are you scared?"
"I told you before, there's nothing for me to be afraid of." Qi Xing rolled his eyes. Ye Xingzhou had asked him this question when he first mentioned family matters to him in a vague manner. He didn't feel afraid before, and he doesn't care now.
Ye Xingzhou suddenly laughed, and without waiting for Qi Xing's reaction, he put down his coffee cup, leaned forward across the distance of the bar table, and touched Qi Xing's still red and swollen face again with his fingers.
The smile on his lips also faded, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, with a look that made Qi Xing inexplicably frightened. Ye Xingzhou gently rubbed the place where his fingers touched, and murmured: "Qi Xing, you know everything about me, you can't run away."
Qi Xing came back to his senses, ignoring the strange feeling that surged in his heart at that moment, he pushed his shoulder and cursed: "You are crazy, who are you threatening?"
Ye Xingzhou staggered back a step when he was pushed by him, but he didn't care. He slowly leaned back to the bar and leisurely drank the rest of the coffee.
Qi Xing avoided his gaze that was fixed on him. Ye Xingzhou's attitude today was indeed a bit strange, ever since he walked out of the Ye's building.
He thought about it, but couldn't figure out what was wrong with this bastard, so he just gave up and let him do whatever he wanted.
But after nightfall, Ye Xingzhou held him in his arms and fucked him hard. Qi Xing's voice was almost hoarse but he was still not let go. Finally, he realized that this bastard was not just a little bit strange today, but was indeed very strange.
Qi Xing couldn't stand it anymore and kicked Ye Xingzhou who was talking nonstop: "Hurry up, it's already late, I want to go home."
Ye Xingzhou stopped, buried his head in his neck and panted heavily. Qi Xing was sweating and sticky all over. He felt uncomfortable being held so tightly by Ye Xingzhou: "What's wrong with you?"
Ye Xingzhou looked up and stopped him from talking.
After being kissed, Qi Xing quickly lost the strength to kick people and pushed them. He finally could breathe fresh air. He pinched Ye Xingzhou's face with both hands and asked strangely: "What's wrong with you? Is it true that I was so moved that I planned to promise you because I beat you up today? Well, lie down and let me go..."
The result of talking nonsense was that he was bullied even more severely. In the end, Qi Xing couldn't even curse and was almost fainted.
I don't know what time it was when the party ended. Qi Xing groped for his phone to check the time and muttered with his eyes closed: "Put on some clothes for me. I want to go home."
"It's past twelve o'clock, don't go back today." Ye Xingzhou still had one hand on his back, stroking it gently, his voice very hoarse.
Qi Xing: "No, my parents are going to call me..."
Ye Xingzhou: "I have sent them a message for you, saying that you are drunk and staying at a friend's house for one night."
Qi Xing frowned and forced one eye open to look at his phone, but it was turned off.
Forget it. It would be troublesome to go home with a swollen face, and he really couldn't walk anymore.
His eyelids drooped again: "I'm going back to my hometown with my parents to celebrate the New Year tomorrow, so don't bother me anymore."
Ye Xingzhou's voice came closer: "How many days will you be gone?"
Qi Xing: "I don't know, at least come back after the seventh day of the New Year. I want to sleep, please stop making noise."
Ye Xingzhou: "Why do I bother you?"
Qi Xing glanced at him dazedly again, pulled him down, and kissed him on the mouth. His muddled mind didn't even think about the meaning of what he was doing, and he closed his eyes again: "Stop making noise, it's annoying."
Qi Xing was probably really tired, and he fell asleep within two minutes of speaking.
Ye Xingzhou leaned against the bedside and lit a cigarette. His eyes stayed on his still red and swollen cheek, and he put the back of his hand on it, without moving for a long time.
