CHAPTER 46: CHAPTER 45 CHENG YANG

"Let’s go!" Ye Xin tugged at Wei Xueqing standing at the door, "Let’s go sit outside."

The two of them went downstairs and sat on a long bench in the garden.

Only then did Wei Xueqing catch her breath, turned her body, grabbed Ye Xin, and said angrily, "Tell me, is there something wrong with Yang Chen? Am I such a harsh and unreasonable person? Why does he think I’m such a cold and heartless person? If he had told me his sister was sick, how could I not let him come? It’s driving me mad!"

Ye Xin looked at Wei Xueqing quietly and smiled without saying a word.

Wei Xueqing felt uncomfortable being stared at by Ye Xin, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Come on!" Ye Xin laughed, "I already scolded him when he called me. He’s just so stubborn. You know, he’s a retired guard and very inflexible. Also, he’s taken your protection as his guard duty, that’s why he can’t let it go."

Ye Xin shrugged helplessly.

Wei Xueqing was stunned; she didn’t expect Yang Chen to take protecting her so seriously. To be honest, she felt a bit moved.

However, she was very angry about what happened today!

"That’s still no reason for him to speculate about others so wantonly, how can he be like this? Am I that kind of person? You don’t know what he said when he came earlier, assured me he wouldn’t take up my time, and never mentioned his sister was sick." Wei Xueqing said angrily.

Ye Xin shook her head with a smile, "Actually, she’s not his biological sister. He’s an orphan, and this sister is someone he recognized at the orphanage. She has leukemia, and their former dean has already sold their house and car to pay for her treatment."

Hearing this, Wei Xueqing fell into deep thought.

It’s not that Wei Xueqing was shallow, but human nature is like that. Relatives by blood and those who aren’t are definitely different.

Yang Chen could do this much for a non-blood related sister, which genuinely earned Wei Xueqing’s respect.

"So, the one million he got from my dad was all for his sister’s medical expenses?" Wei Xueqing asked, taking a deep breath.

She had long suspected Yang Chen’s strange behavior.

A million is a huge sum for ordinary people, and yet Yang Chen was unwilling to buy clothes or eat properly. There definitely had to be more to it.

Ye Xin nodded, "It’s all given to their former dean, saved for treatment use. Leukemia requires a bone marrow transplant, which is a huge expense; they are currently waiting in line, who knows when it will happen."

Wei Xueqing really didn’t know what to say anymore.

"So then," Ye Xin held Wei Xueqing’s hand, "as his boss, you need to look out for him a bit. He’s got a bad temper and straightforward thinking, he will definitely offend people with his words and actions, can you tolerate him a bit more?"

"What are you saying!" Wei Xueqing shook off Ye Xin’s hand, annoyed, "It’s like you’re saying I’m some kind of ruthless CEO with no bones left after eating people!"

Ye Xin giggled, "Aren’t you?"

"I’m not!" Wei Xueqing glared with her beautiful eyes, "Though I’m cold and unfeeling at work, I’m also a person of flesh and blood, okay? Yang Chen doesn’t understand me, so it’s understandable that he’s on guard. But what you’re saying about me is unacceptable!"

"Alright, alright! I’m wrong, I’m wrong, isn’t that enough?" Ye Xin raised her hands in surrender.

...

In the ward.

Chen Siyan had eaten several pieces of Sachima and wanted more, but Yang Chen stopped her, "That’s enough, eat more another day, it’s not good to eat too much."

"No, I still want to eat!" Chen Siyan pouted, looking dissatisfied.

Yang Chen noticed that her little face, initially flushed, was beginning to turn pale, revealing a hint of pain.

Chen Siyan quickly leaned over the bedside, skillfully reached underneath the bed, and pulled out a spittoon.

Before Yang Chen even understood what was happening, he reached out to grab Chen Siyan, only to see her start vomiting, emitting a strong odor.

Yang Chen frowned, quickly patting her back to help her clear her stomach.

After a bout of vomiting, Chen Siyan took a tissue from the bedside to wipe her mouth, then turned and buried her head under the quilt.

Watching Chen Siyan hiding under the covers, Yang Chen felt a wave of discomfort in his heart.

He picked up the spittoon and went out to clean it.

After washing it clean, he saw Ye Xin and Wei Xueqing returning.

"How is it?" Ye Xin frowned at the spittoon in Yang Chen’s hand, "Vomited again?"

Yang Chen nodded helplessly.

Hearing this, Ye Xin quickly walked into the ward.

Yang Chen followed.

"Yanyan." Ye Xin hurriedly sat by the bedside, trying to pull off the quilt on Ye Xin.

"Don’t touch me!" Chen Siyan screamed hysterically from under the covers.

Yang Chen could see clearly that Chen Siyan, wrapped in the quilt, was trembling all over.

This must be... very painful!

Yang Chen clenched his fists tightly.

Wei Xueqing stood behind Yang Chen, seeing his clenched fists with knuckles turning white, showing how hard he was clenching them.

She also understood that Yang Chen must be experiencing great pain inside right now.

"Ye Xin!" Yang Chen’s voice was hoarse as he spoke to Ye Xin, "I’m counting on you to take care of Yanyan."

"Where are you going?" Ye Xin frowned.

"I have to go to work." Yang Chen’s voice was hoarse as he turned to Wei Xueqing, "Let’s go back to work."

"You don’t have to..." Wei Xueqing tried to persuade Yang Chen to stay.

"Let’s go! It’s one o’clock!" Yang Chen said in a deep voice.

From the past two days of understanding, Wei Xueqing knew that once Yang Chen decided on something, there was little chance of changing his mind.

Wei Xueqing gave Ye Xin a reassuring look and followed Yang Chen out of the ward.

Starting the car, Yang Chen drove straight out of the hospital.

Silence ensued along the way.

Staring at Yang Chen’s stern profile, Wei Xueqing several times wanted to say something but didn’t know how to start.

They soon arrived at the company.

In the elevator, after much hesitation, Wei Xueqing spoke, "If you need, I can contact some friends in the Northern Federation to get your sister treated there; after all, their medical conditions are better and the technology more mature."

Yang Chen took a deep breath and said flatly, "No need!"

The elevator stopped, and Yang Chen was the first to walk out.

Wei Xueqing stood stunned in the elevator, a flush of embarrassment washing over her face.

She had good intentions, so what was Yang Chen’s attitude?

If he agreed, Wei Xueqing was willing to use her connections and even offer to pay for Chen Siyan’s treatment, but he just said no need?

The more Wei Xueqing thought about it, the angrier she became. She followed Yang Chen out, stepping loudly in high heels and shouted, "Yang Chen, I’ve realized you’re just a selfish coward!"

Cheng Yang happened to be coming out of the bathroom and saw Wei Xueqing chase after Yang Chen, angrily shouting, and was stunned.

Because he had never seen Wei Xueqing show such angry and out-of-control emotions, especially towards a man!

In Cheng Yang’s impression, Wei Xueqing was an ice queen, high above, unafraid no matter how many elites sat below, eloquent and forceful, with no one as her match.

How could such an ice goddess be so furious at a man?
