931 Dependence (II)

When Qi Yong heard Tang Jue say this, he knew in his heart that Tang Jue might have already obtained the evidence. He might know everything. The bluff just now has completely withered at this moment.

"Young Master, this matter has been over for so many years. It will not benefit anyone to investigate it now. Not to mention me, it will also greatly damage Qi Heng's reputation. If you really consider Qi Qi, I am afraid you have to consider this matter again."

"I don't need to consider it. What the truth of the past is, I, Tang Jue, don't care at all. As long as Qi Qi is happy. So..." Tang Jue's tone was a little colder and heavier, "Qi Yong, from now on, change your attitude and don't embarrass Qi Qi anymore. This matter, I said it's over, and it's over. Otherwise-don't blame me for being ruthless."

Tang Jue bit the last few words very hard.

Qi Yong murmured, and couldn't say a word over there. When the wind blew, his face turned pale. When that happened, he thought that all the truth had been buried in the abyss and would not be dug up again.

But he didn't expect...

"Qi Yong. Qi Yong?" The door of the terrace was pushed open, and Jiang Shao came over and saw Qi Yong's face was pale and his expression was not right. She stepped forward, "Are you okay?"

Qi Yong came back to his senses and hung up the phone in a hurry. Fearing that Jiang Shao knew something, he deleted the number again.

He didn't reply to her, but turned around and walked into the ward.

Seeing him so flustered, Jiang Shao asked worriedly: "Qi Yong, why have you been absent-minded these two days?"

"What do you mean absent-minded?"

"I see you have been hiding from me in secret these two days. Did you do something without telling me?"

When Jiang Shao asked this, Qi Yong got angry and became irritable, "I have you watching me 24 hours a day, what can I hide from you? I'm so sick, can you stop making things difficult for me?"

Jiang Shao was stunned by his roar, and her eyes were red. "Qiyong, you have to speak with conscience. When did I stare at you, when did I make things difficult for you? It was all because I cared about you! You..."

Jiang Shao's emotions burst out all of a sudden, and tears fell down. When she thought of her husband's illness, she couldn't complain anymore, but threw herself into his arms with grievance. When Qiyong saw Jiang Shao's tears, he knew he was wrong, and hugged his wife, but he was still worried.

Tang Jue's office is huge.

The glass of the floor-to-ceiling window is clear and bright. The sun shines in from outside, warm and cozy. Qiqi bathed in this layer of sunshine, looked up at the blue sky outside the window in a daze, and thought of Qiyu and Qiyong's attitude towards her today, and felt a little more sad in her heart.

She didn't want to let herself keep thinking about it, so she wanted to go online. She turned on the computer, typed in her birthday number, and turned it on smoothly. On the screen, her photo suddenly jumped out, and she couldn't help but smile.

The taste of being missed by others is a bit sweet.

It's just...

In the past few years, he has controlled everything about her, but his life is completely blank to her. Qiqi already has the urge to get to know him again.

——————

It was three hours after Tang Jue finished the video conference. The first thing he did when he came out was to ask the secretary: "Has Miss Qi had lunch?"

"She was sent in, but when she went in, Miss Qi didn't seem to be in a good mood. I'm afraid she didn't eat much."

Tang Jue didn't say anything else, pushed open the door of the office and went in directly.

The secretary leaned over and chatted with Jian Qing in a low voice, "Young Master, will you really marry Miss Qi? It seems that he cares about Miss Qi very much."

In the past, there had never been a woman in this building, but in all these years, I have never seen the young master so anxious for anyone, taking care of everything about meals, no matter how big or small.

"I don't know whether he will marry her or not, but I know that if the young master doesn't even want to marry Miss Qi, he must be planning to become a monk in the temple."

The secretary glanced at him sideways, "If our young master really becomes a monk, how many girls will cry blindly?"

It's useless to cry blindly. In her eyes and heart, she doesn't look down on anyone except Qiqi. In the past, when Qiqi didn't respond to him, he still played around with Wen Xin and played hard to get with Miss Qi. Now Miss Qi is staying by his side, and other women don't even have the slightest room to intervene, not even a chance to play.

When Tang Jue pushed the door in, Qiqi was not in the office. The lunch that the secretary brought her was placed on the table as it was, and it hadn't been moved.

He walked slowly towards the lounge. The door of the lounge was not closed. He pushed it gently and the door opened. Qiqi was curled up on the bed. From his direction, he could only see her back.

The slender body curled up into a ball.

It is said that such a sleeping posture reflects a person's extreme lack of security.

Moreover, even if he was just watching from behind, Tang Jue could feel that she was shrouded in deep sadness at the moment.

His heart tightened, and he said nothing, but walked over quietly and lay down beside her with his clothes on. He turned sideways and hugged her with both hands. A warm feeling came from behind, and Qiqi trembled slightly. After instinctively tensing up, she immediately relaxed when she smelled the familiar scent of jasmine.

"Why didn't you even eat?" Tang Jue kissed the top of her head gently, and didn't turn her over. He just put his hands in front of her and held her hands. In such a not-so-cold weather, her hands were icy cold. He held them tightly.

Qiqi subconsciously held his hands with his backhand.

"Just now, I called my aunt..." Qiqi's tone was a little unstable.

Tang Jue had guessed it a long time ago.

"My uncle has a malignant tumor, pancreatic cancer..."

"Yeah." Tang Jue didn't want to hide this from her. He also knew that he couldn't hide it.

"I checked the information online... I heard that the cure rate is very, very low..."

"I will let Tang Song come back these days, and he will try his best." Just try his best. Tang Song couldn't give him a guarantee, and he couldn't give Qiqi one.

Qiqi suddenly turned around and buried her face in his chest. She didn't say anything, but just hugged him tightly with both hands, as if seeking a sense of peace in his arms. Tang Jue was stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses, and a faint smile gradually spread across the corners of her lips.

He hugged her tightly, gently stroked her back with his big hand, and comforted her: "It's okay, I'll go with you to see him tomorrow."

"Tang Jue..." Qiqi didn't respond, but suddenly called his name in a dull voice.

"Hmm?"

"In the future, one day...will you suddenly disappear like eight years ago..." Qiqi's nose felt a little sour when she said this. Her life has been constantly losing, and everyone left very suddenly, and she didn't even have time to keep them.
