Chapter 251: Chapter 251: You Don’t Owe Me AnythingAfterwards, she even heard Shi Yiqing talking to Leng Yuchen on the phone several times, the ambiguity in her tone nearly matching theirs... "Tell me the truth, what exactly is your relationship with him?" Quan Sicheng coldly interrogated Shi Yiqing, his gaze filled with distrust. But Shi Yiqing felt insulted. "Why are you doubting me? I haven’t done anything wrong, why are you looking at me with those eyes?" Even if she were the one in the wrong, Shi Yiqing wouldn’t admit it. She could even turn aggressive in return. "I haven’t done anything wrong! I admit, I didn’t tell you that I knew Leng Yuchen and that was careless of me, but... he wanted to help me because he feels sorry for me!" seaʀᴄh thё Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. When Quan Sicheng heard the words "feels sorry," he burst into laughter. "Feels sorry?" He advanced step by step towards Shi Yiqing, sneering, "He feels sorry for you, and I don’t?" "Do you know what I’ve had to give up to secure an apprenticeship opportunity for you?" Shi Yiqing pursed her lips, "It’s true that you paid a great price, but did I ask you to do that for me?" "Besides, even if you paid a great price, if it doesn’t bring me any real benefits, what’s the use?" Quan Sicheng, faced with her response, wore an expression of disbelief. "What, what did you say?" Embarrassed, Shi Yiqing turned her head away, showing an unwillingness to speak further. But Quan Sicheng was relentless, "What did you just say? Say it again!" "I... I..." Shi Yiqing, frightened by his sudden fury, stammered, "Brother Sicheng, don’t be angry, I... I’m just a bit upset..." "Because you don’t trust me, so I feel very upset, Brother Sicheng can you please not be angry anymore? I’m begging you." As she spoke, she tried to grasp Quan Sicheng’s arm, but he avoided her. "Are you really just upset because I don’t trust you?" Shi Yiqing nodded vigorously, her eyes brimming with tears. "Brother Sicheng, aren’t you clear about my feelings for you? I really didn’t mean to despise you, I just spoke without thinking." Speaking, she lowered her head, her shoulders shrugging as she played the victim, "Am I such a fickle woman in Brother Sicheng’s heart that you can’t even give me the most basic trust?" "That’s not what I meant," Quan Sicheng coughed lightly, "I shouldn’t have doubted you, I apologize to you, and please don’t be mad anymore." "Is Brother Sicheng really not doubting me anymore?" "Fool, don’t you believe what I say?" Quan Sicheng stretched out his hand and ruffled her hair. Shi Yiqing immediately took on a shy demeanor, "How could I not believe you? Brother Sicheng, you’re the kindest to me." Having said that, she snuggled up against him, wrapping her arms around his waist in a gesture that seemed to offer herself to him. "Ding-a-ling-a-ling-a-ling—" Suddenly, the cheerful ringing shattered the intimate atmosphere. Quan Sicheng frowned and stopped what he was doing. Shi Yiqing quickly pulled out her phone and seeing the caller ID, she cast an awkward glance at Quan Sicheng. "Brother Sicheng, it’s Brother Yuchen... his call..." She bit her lower lip, wearing a woeful expression: "Brother Sicheng, what should I do? Should I answer the phone?" "It’s your phone, whether to answer or not is up to you." Quan Sicheng spoke with a hint of cold harshness. Unless Shi Yiqing were a fool, she should have understood the real meaning behind those words. Therefore, Shi Yiqing did not answer the call. Of course, she didn’t hang up either. Quan Sicheng watched coldly as she put the phone aside and roughly pulled her towards himself. Their lovemaking was unpleasant for both of them. Afterward, Quan Sicheng got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower. Shi Yiqing stealthily left with her phone to return Leng Yuchen’s call. "Brother Yuchen, were you looking for me? My phone was on silent, I didn’t hear it earlier," she said, sounding very apologetic. When Leng Yuchen couldn’t get through, he felt somewhat annoyed. But hearing her apologize with such a tone, the irritation in his heart subsided considerably. "You don’t need to apologize to me." Leng Yuchen soothed her, then said, "There’s been a bit of trouble with my family recently, so I might not be able to be with you as much..." Shi Yiqing interrupted him excitedly, "Brother Yuchen, what’s wrong? Are you in any trouble? Whatever it is, if I can help in any way, you must tell me. I don’t want you to bear it all alone, okay?" Hearing her words, Leng Yuchen felt very comforted. "Don’t worry, it’s just a small matter that will be solved soon." "Really?" Shi Yiqing’s voice was still full of anxious concern. Leng Yuchen said, "Really, don’t you trust me?" Shi Yiqing giggled shyly and said softly, "Of course I trust whatever Brother Yuchen says, but I’m just worried about you." Leng Yuchen obviously had no defenses against such words and surrendered right away. "I know you’re worried about me. Listen to me, you don’t need to worry about this. Just relax, okay?" As he spoke, he paused and then said, "If anyone comes to you because of the Cheng Family’s matters, you don’t need to deal with them." Hearing his instructive words, Cheng Lingdang felt somewhat flustered. "Brother Yuchen, what do you mean by that? What do you mean by ’if anyone comes to me because of the Cheng Family’s matters’? Are you saying that you..." Leng Yuchen interrupted her, "Okay, okay, you don’t need to talk about this. Helping you was my choice. If any problems arise, I will be the one to bear them." Shi Yiqing bit her lip and said, deeply moved, "Brother Yuchen, you’re really good to me." "Silly girl, your life was saved by you. If I’m not good to you, then whom should I be good to?" "Brother Yuchen, you’re such a good person. Even if it weren’t me, someone else would have offered a helping hand." Listening to her, Leng Yuchen felt even more that what he was doing was worth it. So, he was even less willing to let Shi Yiqing feel any guilt. "Qingqing, let me tell you something, but don’t get anxious beforehand," he said. Leng Yuchen told her about what he had been up to, "I was trying to deal with Cheng Lingdang for you, but something unexpected came up, and now the Leng Family is being watched..." "But don’t take it to heart and think that you’ve caused me trouble." Shi Yiqing sounded somewhat downhearted: "Isn’t that the case?" "Of course not." Leng Yuchen said convincingly: "It’s something I wanted to do myself, and also... my grudge with the Cheng Family goes way back." "Ah?" "Do you remember the day you saved me on Chiz Street?" Leng Yuchen said, "That day, it was Cheng Xingjian, who is Cheng Lingdang’s father, who drove me to the brink of death. If it hadn’t been for you, I might have died that day. So, after all, you don’t owe me anything."
