Chapter 99: Stupidity in the Previous Life
Could it be a good thing that Yi Hongli asked to see him at this time?
Qi Yan didn't think they had anything to talk about, so he refused outright. Two days later, he arranged for himself to be discharged from the hospital and returned home.
After Jiang Yuqing heard about it, she asked him what his plans were next. In order to get the support of his family and the help of the head of the Shen family, he lied that Qi Yan was the father of the child. To be on the safe side, it would be better for the two of them to live together for now, and then find an excuse to explain it to their family later.
"My grandfather is so annoying. He keeps asking me to take you over. I guess he still wants to 'break us up'. He introduced me to someone else. You should help that dead man bear the pressure first." Jiang Yuqing was really annoyed. "I have to go see him in a few days, otherwise my parents may not be able to handle it. It's also a good time for you to check your hand injury. Shen Xiliu is really merciless..."
Even though Qi Yan had said several times that he had injured his hand himself, Jiang Yuqing didn't quite believe that he would hurt himself. In addition, Shen Xiliu's recent actions made Jiang Yuqing feel that he was becoming more and more cruel.
"It has nothing to do with him." Qi Yan emphasized again, "I really hurt myself, there's no need for a checkup. Anyway, I don't plan to mix drinks anymore, so there's no need."
There's really no need.
Maybe I once held out a glimmer of hope, but now there is really no need. Even if it can make things better, it will be of no use.
"Really? You don't want to go because that organization is related to the Shen family and Shen Yunshu has invested in it, right?" Jiang Yuqing asked suspiciously. He just found out about this not long ago. Dr. Wilson's team is related to the Shen family. They were able to invite the other party so easily at the beginning. It is likely related to Shen Xiliu?
Jiang Yuqing felt that there was an unspeakable contradiction here, but he couldn't figure it out, so he simply gave up.
"By the way, I heard that Yi Hongli said he wanted to see you, but you refused. Then he seemed to say he wanted to see Chen Xiliu." Jiang Yuqing said.
"?" Qi Yan was startled when he heard this, frowning, "Why does he want to see Shen Xiliu?"
Could it be that he wanted Shen Xiliu to help him? But based on Yi Hongli's current crime, even if he is not sentenced to death, he will be sentenced to life imprisonment and will never be able to get out in this lifetime.
"Who knows? Even if the Shen family wants to help him, it's impossible. At most, they can save him from the death penalty and let him sit in jail for a few hundred years." Jiang Yuqing waved his hand.
Qi Yan was somewhat puzzled, but he didn't want to continue wasting time on these things. He did not agree to live in Jiang Yuqing's house for the time being, but agreed to help him deal with his family. Jiang Yuqing told these lies to help him, and he couldn't just do nothing now.
So she accompanied him abroad and put on a good show. Jiang Yuqing's parents treated him very well, but they were somewhat dissatisfied in their hearts. After all, being pregnant before marriage is a bad thing in any era. Seeing Jiang Yuqing's parents secretly inquiring about when they would get married, Qi Yan almost fled...
Two days later, after finally dealing with the elders of the Jiang family, Zhang Heng called. His tone was a little serious: "I don't know what Yi Hongli said to Shen Xiliu. His current situation is a bit bad..."
It's more than just terrible. I heard that he committed suicide as soon as he returned. If his family hadn't found him in time, he might be dead now.
“…”
Qi Yan fell into silence. Even after hanging up the phone, he was still a little distracted. When Jiang Yuqing came to find him, he had already learned about this from his family, and his expression was quite puzzled: "Is Chen Xiliu sick? Or did Yi Hongli really say some unspeakable secret that could actually spur him to commit suicide?!"
There was a hint of disappointment in Jiang Yuqing's tone. He hated cowardly people the most in his life. When faced with a problem that could not be solved, why did they have to resort to suicide to escape reality?
Shen Xiliu is so powerful. He had tortured all of them into such a terrible state before. How could he choose to commit suicide now just because of what Yi Hongli said? !
Jiang Yuqing was so angry that he didn't notice that Qi Yan's hands were shaking slightly.
"Indeed, it's very stupid."
"A prisoner with nowhere to go has no future. He will only make the living... live a more miserable life than he does. You shouldn't watch or listen to him at this time."
Qi Yan suppressed his emotions and said that he was in a bad mood. He didn't talk much with Jiang Yuqing. After Jiang Yuqing left, he reluctantly got up to pour water and drink medicine. However, his hands were shaking so badly that the bottle fell to the ground with a thud, rolling down until it hit the white rabbit slippers...
A hand picked up the medicine bottle.
"What... medicine is this?" Jiang Yuqing, who had returned, asked hesitantly.
He looked at the medicine bottle carefully. Qi Yan had just brought it back not long ago and had not had time to replace the bottle.
Staring closely at the name of the medicine on the bottle, Jiang Yuqing froze in place: "Hey, Qi Yan, don't tell me, you really... have pheromone riot disorder?!"
He couldn't quite believe it.
"Well, it's just a prop for a prank. You're scared, right?" Qi Yan hid his trembling hands behind his back and said with a smile.
“…”
Jiang Yuqing stared at Qi Yan who acted as if nothing had happened, and suddenly his nose felt sore and his eyes turned red uncontrollably. He didn't know what to say. He wanted to ask him not to do such a prank!
But before he could finish his words, Jiang Yuqing's tears started to flow. Unimaginable sadness filled his heart. He choked with sobs and said, "Why...why would even you..."
He is not a fool, how could he not realize that Qi Yan and Zhang Hengyi were hiding a lot of things from him but just didn't say them out loud.
“…”
Qi Yan wanted to comfort him, but seemed too powerless to speak. He originally didn't want Jiang Yuqing to know, at least not now, but ended up being a little careless.
It would be great if Gu Yanxing wasn’t dead. His omega was crying, and he should be the one to comfort her.
Jiang Yuqing took a long time to calm down this time. Qi Yan didn't want to talk about this topic anymore and asked him, "Why did you suddenly come back?"
He deliberately waited until Jiang Yuqing left before taking the medicine, but he didn't expect that he would be caught when he came back.
"Oh, Mr. Shen Yunshu wants to see you." Jiang Yuqing tried to change the subject.
"Shen Yunshu?" After Qi Yan finished drinking the medicine, he threw the bottle into the drawer. Hearing this familiar name, he was a little confused.
"When did you meet him? I heard that he is a research maniac, and he even gave birth to another alpha for research purposes... Don't tell anyone about this, it's confidential! Not many people know about it, and even I learned about it from my dad. You know, my dad can't keep a secret, and he kept it to himself for many years. When he was pouring out his heart to his baby, he didn't notice that I was hiding under the table and heard it all."
“…”
Shen Yunshu wants to see him at this time, it is probably related to Shen Xiliu.
Qi Yan and Shen Yunshu didn't have much in common. It would be better to say that among the Shen family, only Shen Xiliu was the one he was most familiar with, and the rest were no different from strangers. He thought about it carefully and agreed. Qi Yan didn't want to see Shen Xiliu again, but Shen Yunshu didn't care.
Jiang Yuqing also agreed with him to meet with Shen Yunshu. After all, that person was the best in disease research related to pheromones and might be able to help Qi Yan.
The time was set at 12 noon tomorrow. Qi Yan arrived at the agreed place ahead of time, and Shen Yunshu arrived on time, not a minute more or less. Seeing Qi Yan already sitting there waiting, he raised his eyebrows and said, "You're here really early. Actually, there's no need to be early. Just be on time."
Shen Yunshu's attitude was very natural, without any sense of strangeness. He casually ordered a cup of coffee and asked Qi Yan what he wanted. After the waiter left, he directly said, "During the time when I was away, you were tormented by that idiot Shen Xiliu, right?"
Qi Yan: “…”
He didn't know how to answer this question. He wanted to say yes and no, and no and no, so he chose to remain silent.
“Ha, I know even without you telling me that Shen Xiliu is paranoid and arrogant. If you cooperate with him, you will definitely be tormented less, but you can tell by looking at his horrible look.”
Shen Yunshu smiled, took out a bottle of medicine from his pocket and handed it over: "I won't waste my words. Your disease is incurable now, but the new medicine recently developed by the NIH Institute should be able to relieve your mental stress. You can try it first. If you have any questions in the future, feel free to contact me."
There was a note under the medicine bottle with Shen Yunshu's contact information.
"...Thank you." Qi Yan would not be stupid enough to refuse the life-saving medicine. It would be better to say that it came at the right time. Otherwise, he was really afraid that one day he would not be able to bear the torture and commit suicide when the disease broke out.
"Thank you?" Shen Yunshu shook his head. "I should be the one apologizing to you. After all, my subordinates were dishonest and took the opportunity to attack you. To be honest, I owe you a life, but there is no way to save you. There is no point in regretting it."
What had been done wrong could not be undone, Shen Yunshu could only do his best to help.
"It has nothing to do with Director Shen." Qi Yan said. Shen Yunshu was not present when he was injected with the pheromone destroyer, so it was not his fault.
Shen Yunshu said: "Shen Xiliu is my nephew, and the person who injected the pheromone destroyer is my subordinate. They are all closely related to me, but now these people have received the due punishment. Our Shen family will find a way to compensate you next."
"..." After hearing this, Qi Yan was silent for a while. He asked hesitantly, "Chen Xiliu, he is now..."
"Oh, him?" Shen Yunshu chuckled and said sarcastically, "Don't worry, he won't die. This idiot... deliberately sent me away again and found an opportunity to remove his glands. A few days ago, he hid at home and cut his wrists to commit suicide because Yi Hongli said some nonsense. If it weren't for the pheromone suppression collar that discovered that his life signs were weakening and notified people nearby, he would probably be dead... He really knows how to torment people."
Shen Yunshu frowned deeply. He had already decided to return home tonight, and then rush to the hospital to slap him a few times. If you want to die, die completely and don't always cause trouble for others!
“…”
Qi Yan didn't know what to say and just stood there in a daze. He remembered that the last time Shen Xiliu came to the hospital to see him, his neck was already wrapped in a bandage... So, had the gland been removed at that time?
His expression turned slightly ugly. Qi Yan took a deep breath, not knowing how to react. He only knew that there was a nameless anger burning in his chest.
Didn't Shen Xiliu know that after having his gland removed, not only would his life span be shortened, but his physical condition would also be weaker than before. If he wasn't careful, he would be infected with the virus. If he wasn't properly treated, he could die on the spot...
Doesn't he care about his own life or death? How long have you been away? He has narrowly escaped death twice, which really makes people angry. Why can't he value his own life?
I was so afraid of pain before, but now I have to torture myself...
"He took revenge on those people, including himself." Shen Yunshu said with some disgust, "Isn't it stupid?"
He jokes with his own life again and again.
He said that what he owed Qi Yan must be paid back. Qi Yan's hand was injured, so his hand was also injured; Qi Yan's glands were necrotic, so he removed the glands; now he said that he ruined Qi Yan's life, so he had to pay it back...
Shen Yunshu had never seen such a stupid person in his life.
Do you really think that after you have done all this, you can get it back? Self-torture can only make oneself feel better and allow the enemy to gloat over the misfortune, but it will only hurt relatives and people who care about him...
"Indeed." Qi Yan nodded with a sullen face, "What did Yi Hongli...say to make him want to commit suicide?"
He didn't want to ask, but he couldn't help but speak.
"I don't know." Shen Yunshu said straightforwardly, "But I will go back tonight and will find out the whole story. You don't have to worry about him, just follow your heart. If you don't want to show up, don't show up. We won't give him any more chances to commit suicide, don't worry."
Shen Yunshu finished speaking, picked up the coffee and drank it in one gulp: "If you have anything, just call me or send me a message. I will reply to you when I see it."
He had to catch a flight back to beat someone up, so I won't say more.
