Chapter 98: Past Life + Present Life Apology
"Didn't you get enough rest last night?" Qi Yan observed Shen Xiliu's face, which was much paler than yesterday, and even his complexion was not looking good. He frowned and asked, "Did I disturb you?"
He felt that he couldn't sleep with Shen Xiliu. He didn't know whether he was talking in his sleep or sleepwalking, which resulted in Shen Xiliu not getting a good rest when they slept together.
"No!" Shen Xiliu subconsciously shook his head to deny it, revealing a far-fetched smile, "It has nothing to do with you, it's my own problem."
He didn't want to say more on this issue, and looking at the time, he urged Qi Yan to eat breakfast quickly.
Today is Saturday, and Chen Xiliu doesn't have to go to work, but Qi Yan still has a lot of things to do at school. He and his tutor have agreed to meet in the laboratory at 8 o'clock, so he can only suppress the problems in his heart for the time being and talk about it in the evening.
"Then I'll leave first." Qi Yan finished his breakfast and packed up his things. He looked at Shen Xiliu who was watching him leave. After hesitating for a moment, he walked up to him and kissed him gently. "Have a good rest today. You look so bad."
Obviously the results from the instruments at home were good, but Qi Yan always felt that Chen Xiliu's condition was inconsistent with what the instruments showed. Maybe... he had to go to the research institute or hospital for a check-up.
He left Shen Xiliu's home with many thoughts in his mind. The door closed slowly. Shen Xiliu touched his forehead unconsciously. The touch of the kiss still remained. He should be happy, but when he thought of last night's "nightmare", he couldn't be happy.
“…”
Even his body was shaking. Shen Xiliu sat weakly on the sofa and covered his mouth and nose with his hands to avoid overbreathing. He felt as embarrassed as when he and Qi Yan "first" met in this life.
He originally planned to meet Qi Yan in a better attitude, but he didn't expect it to be so embarrassing. Fortunately, the subsequent development was not too bad, and Qi Yan finally responded to him.
Now it seems like I’m going back to the path of my previous life.
"What should I do? What should I do next?" Shen Xiliu was rarely confused. Qi Yan's memory seemed to be recovering soon.
No, he couldn't just sit there and wait for death, he had to think of a way!
Shen Xiliu tried to calm down and began to look for a solution. He also thought about asking Qi Yan in this life to mark him and find a way to get pregnant.
But Qi Yan didn't want to do such an impulsive thing. He had used this method in his previous life. If he used it again now, when Qi Yan recovered his memory, he would definitely remember the experience of being imprisoned in his previous life.
At that time, Qi Yan would only feel disgusted, thinking that he was still the despicable and shameless person who had harmed him so miserably in his previous life and was now repeating the same mistakes, without any change at all.
Moreover, Qi Yan in this life does not lack love at all. Whether it is his mother, grandparents, uncles and aunts, or even his younger brothers and sisters, they are all around him. His family is happy and complete. Even if he threatens his child, Qi Yan may not pay so much attention to his child...
"Calm down, I need to calm down."
Shen Xiliu stood up, biting his fingers subconsciously, and walked into the room that Qi Yan was curious about. Only by staying there could he restrain his impulse and stop doing wrong things.
The dim room was completely enclosed, even the windows were sealed. Chen Xiliu closed the door, turned on the lights, and lay down on the carpet. The room was filled with densely packed photos on all sides and even on the ceiling.
"A lot of things have changed in this life. We may not end up on a dead end again."
Shen Xiliu looked at the photos on the ceiling. There were all the photos of Qi Yan from childhood to adulthood. Looking at these photos, he could clearly see a person's growth path, and his thinking gradually became clear.
Yes, this time it's different. Qi Yan has such a good personality. Even if he recovers his memory, as long as he sees the changes he has made, he will definitely forgive him...
Therefore, he must not lose his composure, nor be smart enough to threaten Qi Yan. It is best not to do anything now!
Shen Xiliu was thinking very calmly, but his dark eyes were terribly gloomy, and his slightly trembling pupils seemed to still carry a lot of uncertainty.
…
…………
[“I know this is against the law, and I don’t want to do it, but…but…I’m really sorry!”
He didn't want to do such a wrong thing, but his father's debts were piled on him, causing him too much pressure. He had finally persevered for so many years, went to a prestigious university, successfully completed his graduate and doctoral studies, and even entered the coveted PHY Science Institute, but at this time, the debt collectors caught up with him.
If he doesn't return it, the other party threatens to cut off his hands and completely ruin his future!
Chen Xiaozhou had no choice. He really didn't dare to do it at first and hesitated for a long time, but the other party kept increasing the stakes and threatening him openly and covertly. If he did it, he would not only get the money, but if he didn't, he would definitely lose his job.
Yi Hongli is very smart. He never takes the initiative to appear in front of Chen Xiaozhou, but indirectly uses Shen Qingze through Shen Xiangting to put pressure on Chen Xiaozhou, making him mistakenly believe that Shen Qingze is on his side.
As a result, Chen Xiaozhou, who was introverted and timid by nature, was threatened. He thought about it for a long time and found that Young Master Shen didn't take the alpha named Qi Yan seriously at all. Even when he was extracting pheromones, he never watched from the side. This made him eager to make a move.
Anyway, Third Master Shen didn’t take this man seriously, so why not do it?
But he knew that Qi Yan was just an ordinary person without any background. He had not even attended college. He started out in society at an early age and worked in a chaotic place like a bar. It was obvious that he was not a serious person!
But he happened to be very lucky, as his pheromone matching degree was an astonishing 99.98% with someone as high and mighty as Young Master Shen, so he could get 30 million just by drawing some pheromones. It was really hard not to be envious, and at the same time, jealous, and regretful that he did not have such good luck.
Obviously that guy is so ordinary, except for his better appearance, he is not as good as him in any other way...
In Chen Xiaozhou's opinion, no matter his academic qualifications, intelligence or background, they are all very bad. He can even be called a social parasite who has not made any contribution to the society. Yet, such a person can easily earn 30 million by luck!
Chen Xiaozhou was somewhat jealous. Perhaps it was because of this mentality, coupled with Yi Hongli tempting with money and threatening the future, and the institute always liked to control everything. The most dangerous Shen Yunshu was not here, and the current head Shen Qingze was obsessed with research and would not be able to take care of everything...
Of course, the most important thing is Shen Xiliu's attitude!
He didn't take Qi Yan seriously at all. When Chen Xiaozhou heard that Young Master Shen only used the lucky alpha as a donor for extracting pheromones and ignored this person, he became even more excited.
He knew that the opportunity had come.
Anyway, Third Master Shen doesn't care about Qi Yan, so he just needs to be careful and make sure nothing goes wrong at this stage, then no one will be able to find out that he was the one who did it afterwards!
Everything is good. It is worth sacrificing an ordinary person in exchange for a more valuable one.
"It's ridiculous and absurd."
When Shen Xiliu walked out of the basement, his face was still stained with blood. He wiped the blood off his hands with a handkerchief expressionlessly. Chen Xiaozhou deserved to die, but he deserved to die even more.
If he had paid more attention to Qi Yan at the time and noticed something was wrong that day, perhaps nothing would have happened.
Chen Xiaozhou was a coward. When he was about to take action that day, he was so scared when he saw Shen Xiliu present that he even had the idea of retreating.
"I wanted to tell you at that time!" Chen Xiaozhou screamed, he really regretted it at that time!
If Shen Xiliu had looked at Chen Xiaozhou a few more times, given his timid personality, he might have knelt at Shen Xiliu's feet and told him everything.
Unfortunately, there is no if, Shen Xiliu did not notice that something was wrong with him, and Chen Xiaozhou, in fear, injected the pheromone destroyer into Qi Yan's body.
From that point on, there was no turning back.
All the detained criminals were eventually dealt with by Shen Xiliu himself.
This time, he did not escape. He skipped over some of the bloody incidents and compiled the rest into a book. Half a month later, he found a time when no one else was around and personally went to the hospital.
"...Everyone has received the punishment they deserve. Everything is caused by my attitude. If you want to retaliate, you can do whatever you want to me or others. Your...disease." Shen Xiliu said with a bit of choking, "I will also find a way to save you. Many research institutes abroad have made breakthroughs in pheromone riot disorder. My second uncle has already gone abroad..."
Even if it cannot be cured, we can try to alleviate the pain and prolong this pitifully short life.
Shen Yunshu hated stupidity, especially stupid people like Shen Xiliu. He had scolded him countless times before he left, but he still had to take on this mess, using his personal connections to run around to help Qi Yan find a solution.
“…”
Qi Yan did not speak, nor did he look up at him. He just sat on the bench in the sun, lowered his head slightly and played with his mobile phone, completely ignoring Shen Xiliu who was standing beside him.
Not to mention being a stranger, this attitude clearly shows that he doesn't exist.
Shen Xiliu wanted to cry, but he had no right to feel wronged, and after telling Qi Yan everything, he suppressed his pain and apologized in a low voice.
"Qi Yan... I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. I was too stupid, so I hurt you. Although saying sorry seems useless, I still owe you a lot of apologies..."
I owe too much.
Shen Xiliu was used to acting recklessly. He liked to ignore everything he didn't care about, and he also liked to plunder everything he liked. He never took Qi Yan's needs seriously from beginning to end.
Whether it is the initial meeting or the renewal of a verbal contract. Although he said that he wanted to give Qi Yan a chance to retaliate, he never thought about connecting with Qi Yan in the right way. Instead, he chose to use twisted calculations to completely tie the two together.
In this relationship, Shen Xiliu has always been the strong one.
No matter what, if you get it first, what will happen if you can’t? Then keep forcing him until he faces you squarely, even using the things he cares about to tempt him. If he still is unwilling, then make him realize that there is no way for you to regret it, and it is impossible for you to leave him!
On the island and in the old house, Shen Xiliu really wanted to take action against Jiang Yuqing. He didn't care about Jiang Yuqing's identity at all. As long as the other party became his enemy, he would destroy everything by any means, and then imprison Qi Yan by his side to make him realize the price of leaving him...
Qi Yan never paid any attention to him. He was exhausted from being hospitalized recently. After basking in the sun, he stepped back. Chen Xiliu stood there for a long time, like a puppet without a soul. He was in too much pain both physically and mentally.
He didn't pick up the phone until it rang. After listening to the other end's words, his stiff expression showed a slight change: "Divorced?"
"Oh, not bad." Shen Xiliu laughed in a suppressed manner, his expression gloomy, "Keep an eye on me."
After he finished the call, he looked up at the window of the ward where Qi Yan was and picked up the documents that Qi Yan had not even looked at.
Shen Xiliu knew what Qi Yan meant. He didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore, nor did he want to know about these things. It would be better for him not to come to him again.
Such an attitude of keeping people at a distance hurt Shen Xiliu a little, but compared with everything Qi Yan had experienced because of him, it was nothing.
Shen Xiliu touched the bandage on his neck and turned away.
“He’s horribly thin.” Zhang Heng, who had just walked into the ward, said as soon as he opened his mouth. When he came up, he saw Shen Xiliu from a distance and almost didn’t recognize him.
It's been less than a month and she has become so thin. It's too abnormal.
"Really?" Qi Yan walked away from behind the curtain and said lightly, "This has nothing to do with us."
"...That would be great if it were true." Zhang Heng knew that he was saying one thing and thinking another.
Qi Yan didn't say anything. He took a pear from the fruit basket, took out a knife from the drawer, and slowly peeled the skin. His right hand was injured again and it was a little difficult to operate, but he had no problem doing some small things.
"Are you really going to be discharged from the hospital the day after tomorrow?" Zhang Hengyi asked.
Qi Yan nodded: "If we want to leave, it's useless to continue living here, and Jiang Yuqing will get suspicious."
The hand injury has actually almost healed. If he continues to stay here, Jiang Yuqing might notice something is wrong.
"Okay." Zhang Hengyi knew that the decision he made would not be easily changed, so he took out a document from the file bag and gave it to him, "There is one more very important thing I need to tell you."
"Yi Hongli said he wants to see you."】
