Chapter 627: I Just Want a Child
Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong at Me, Jiang Muye
Boss Cutie
"I'm not that stupid," said Xiang Shan. Her intuition was very accurate.
This matter absolutely had something to do with Ye Shuhua. Even if Ye Shuhua hadn't done it herself, she had sent people to do it.
Yet Ye Shuhua remained quite calm. She smiled faintly. "Then Sister Xiang Shan, if you need any help later, just let me know. I know some pretty good detectives. I can help you out when the time comes."
Xiang Shan gave a cold snort. "The evidence I want, I'm afraid even if I ask, you won't give it to me."
Xiang Shan's words made Father Leng's brows furrow instinctively.
Father Leng looked at Ye Shuhua with some suspicion.
Ye Shuhua immediately put on a wounded look. "Qihua, you wouldn't actually be suspecting me, would you? Mm, I didn't do anything. There's no need for me to do such a thing."
She lowered her eyelids, feigning sincerity, and immediately swore an oath. "I know I'm not likable, and Sister Xiang Shan rejects me too, but I want you two to be truly happy. If I really was the one harming Sister Xiang Shan, then let me be hit by a car and die!"
"Alright, don't swear such terrible oaths. I believe you, okay?" Father Leng felt there was no need to randomly suspect people. What if he was wrong?
Besides, Ye Shuhua had sworn an oath like that. She probably really hadn't done anything.
Xiang Shan rolled her eyes.
Green tea bitch. What an actress.
She wished a driver would show up to uphold justice.
"Forget it, I'm leaving first." Xiang Shan felt she didn't want to keep going back and forth with Ye Shuhua. Better to go look for evidence.
Staying here would only make her sick to death of Ye Shuhua.
After watching Xiang Shan leave, Ye Shuhua's eyes darkened with displeasure.
Night gradually fell.
After Father Leng entered the room, a pair of ice-cold lotus-root arms wrapped around his waist from behind.
"Qihua~" a coquettish voice sounded out.
Father Leng trembled. Facing her touch, he was clearly still somewhat resistant.
He instinctively tried to pry Ye Shuhua's fingers apart and said coolly, "I need to go to the study to work."
Ye Shuhua was filled with indignation.
This trick again.
Was there really that much work! Wasn't it just an excuse!
"Qihua, work is never finished. We're both home now, so let's rest and sleep properly." Ye Shuhua's hand instinctively tried to slip into the back of Father Leng's clothes, but he immediately caught her nimble fingers.
How could he possibly not understand what Ye Shuhua wanted?
Ye Shuhua's actions clearly made him somewhat averse, and he wasn't interested.
"The work is really necessary. If you're sleepy, go to sleep first." Father Leng instinctively pushed Ye Shuhua away.
Ye Shuhua watched Father Leng's back as he was about to leave, a bitter refusal to accept what was happening welling up inside her.
She had struggled so hard to become Leng Qihua's woman, yet Leng Qihua wouldn't even touch her. Wasn't that a kind of humiliation?
Ye Shuhua felt that Leng Qihua hadn't truly accepted her.
Besides, if she and Leng Qihua had no child, then Leng Ruoli would forever remain the bond between Xiang Shan and Leng Qihua.
The two of them would only grow closer, and might even contact each other more and more right under her nose.
Ye Shuhua spoke to Father Leng with a pitiful look. "Do you despise me?"
Father Leng trembled, and he abruptly looked at Ye Shuhua.
"You think my body isn't nice to look at, or you despise me for being dirty, thinking that because a man has touched me, I'm no longer clean, that I'm not worthy of you, is that it?" Ye Shuhua's eyes were red. "Yes, I did take some shortcuts before. It's only right that you look down on me in your heart."
Ye Shuhua placed her hands over her chest, putting on an extremely pitiful appearance. "You're so outstanding. Being with you, I'm reaching far above myself. It's completely normal for you to not think much of me."
Ye Shuhua thought to herself, I've already played the pity card so hard. Leng Qihua will definitely soften up now, right?
Sure enough, Leng Qihua wore a guilty expression.
"I'm sorry."
Ye Shuhua was secretly delighted. Next, all she had to do was offer herself up, and she could get Leng Qihua to touch her.
It was her menstrual period now. As long as she tried a little harder, she might be able to conceive Leng Qihua's child.
That way, no matter how important a place Xiang Shan occupied in Leng Qihua's heart, it wouldn't matter.
Ye Shuhua's lips curled upward in secret, and she was just about to throw herself into Leng Qihua's embrace when she heard Father Leng's guilt-ridden words. She nearly fainted on the spot.
"Let's break up. I shouldn't hold you back."
Ye Shuhua's face went pale.
She wondered if her ears were playing tricks on her, but from Father Leng's expression, it didn't seem like she was hearing things.
"What did you say? You want to break up with me? Why? What did I do wrong?" Ye Shuhua's eyes filled with tears, and she sobbed to Father Leng.
Father Leng instinctively said to Ye Shuhua, "You're great in every way. It's me who's not. I... actually can't accept a new relationship so quickly. You said back then that you had no desires, that as long as you could stay by my side, that was enough. I also felt I had wronged you before, so I thought I'd let you stay by my side and make it up to you properly."
"But now I feel I'm too despicable. What I feel for you is only what an older brother feels for a younger sister, not the love between a man and a woman at all. If things go on like this, it'll only waste your time. Better to separate now."
Hearing Father Leng's words, Ye Shuhua secretly gritted her teeth.
She had only pretended in order to seduce Father Leng, and now he wanted to break up?
Absolutely not!
"Hah, it hurts..." Ye Shuhua suddenly clutched her chest, gasping for breath.
"What's wrong? Is it your illness again?" Father Leng grew anxious and immediately held Ye Shuhua.
Tears streaming down her face, Ye Shuhua lingered on the verge of death in Father Leng's embrace. "I... I'm fine, just a little short of breath. You know I have congenital heart disease and can't be stimulated. I'm used to it. It'll be fine in a bit."
Father Leng pressed his lips together, his mood heavy.
"It's okay, I won't die. After all, I still want to be with you. You know my dream since childhood has been to be with you." Ye Shuhua said these false words in Father Leng's embrace.
"If I didn't have you, I really don't know what I'd do."
Hearing Ye Shuhua's sobbing, Father Leng's heart was also tormented.
Of course he didn't want Ye Shuhua to be gravely ill or even have something happen to her because of him.
Ye Shuhua's health really wasn't very good. She was rather frail and had undergone several surgeries. Later, after going bankrupt, she had taken on even more chronic ailments.
If she were deeply stimulated because of him and something really happened to her, he would bear great responsibility.
"Alright, I'll help you rest properly. In a bit I'll have the private doctor come take a look at you." Father Leng rubbed Ye Shuhua and led her to her room to lie down and rest.
Ye Shuhua lay on the bed and shook her head at Father Leng. "It's fine. I don't care at all whether there's a doctor. This is an old problem anyway, and I feel much better now. I just feel a little lonely right now."
Ye Shuhua continued acting. "You're very busy, I understand that, and I don't expect you to be with me at every moment, but I want to have a child."
