201: Chapter 202: Stealing and Not Wiping the Mouth 201: Chapter 202: Stealing and Not Wiping the Mouth Ye Qiu personally called her, took her hand, and Li Qianqian thought Ye Qiu had changed, becoming more affectionate towards her. However, when Li Qianqian pulled Ye Qiu to sit on that rock, hoping he would act the same way he did just now, he didn’t. “Actually, I called you here because I need to talk to your father.” When she heard it was about her father, the enthusiasm Li Qianqian had felt cooled down. But still, Li Qianqian acted the same as before. She knew Ye Qiu waiting for her and waiting for Liu Lingxiu were different things. When waiting for Liu Lingxiu, Ye Qiu would be very proactive, but with her, he seemed very passive. Li Qianqian held onto Ye Qiu’s arm and asked, “What do you want from my dad?” “The restaurant, you know?” Last time she went, Li Qianqian had already been to the restaurant Ye Qiu had rented. She had also tasted the royal cuisine Ye Qiu had personally cooked, a meal she still missed and wondered when he’d cook for her again. “I know! I want to eat your cooking again. When will you make it for me?” “It’s under renovation now. Yesterday, a worker fell from the fifth floor and got impaled by a steel rod.” Before Ye Qiu finished speaking, Li Qianqian was already shocked. A building with five floors, almost twenty meters high; falling from the fifth floor and getting impaled by a steel rod. In her mind, that could only mean serious injury or death. “Did he die?” “I treated him in time and he survived. But here’s the issue, the Safety Supervision Bureau is fining my dad 500,000 yuan.” Li Qianqian, still thinking the worker might have died, quickly realized from Ye Qiu’s words that his medical skills were much more impressive than she had imagined. “A fine of 500,000 yuan? Isn’t that too much?” Generally speaking, fines are imposed proportionally. Even for large construction sites, a single fine of 500,000 yuan is rare. Ye Qiu’s building wasn’t even as large as a small construction site, yet the fine was 500,000 yuan. That was extortion. “The ticket came out. Officially, it’s 500,000 yuan, but actually, the fine is only 50,000 yuan, and the rest of the money is unaccounted for. I want your dad to look into it.” It was clear to Li Qianqian that the money had gone into someone’s pocket or was split among some people. These people were truly daring. If it was someone else, Li Qianqian wouldn’t care. But Ye Qiu was her savior and the person she liked, and they dared to extort him. In her eyes, Ye Qiu belonged to her, not to mention his money. “Bring me the ticket. I’ll ask for you.” After Ye Qiu took the ticket from his pocket, Li Qianqian looked at it. Although she didn’t study finance, like Ye Qiu, she immediately saw the problems with the ticket. It was only because Ye Weidong didn’t understand these things that he had been tricked. “I’ll make them regret this.” Li Qianqian said. Now it seemed Li Qianqian was determined to help Ye Qiu resolve this issue. To Ye Weidong, 500,000 yuan was a lot, but to Ye Qiu, it wasn’t much. He just felt uncomfortable being extorted like that. Also, if this matter wasn’t resolved, other government departments might come up with trouble later, turning it into a bottomless pit. And the renovation work couldn’t continue. So, although Ye Qiu didn’t want to trouble Li Qianqian and her father, he ultimately decided to let Li Zhiguo handle it. He knew that as long as Li Zhiguo spoke a single word, those people wouldn’t dare come close again. Ye Qiu knew the issue would soon be resolved but as he prepared to leave, Li Qianqian uncomfortably said, “You only look for me when you have a problem. When there’s none, you don’t even think of me.” Last time, when Ye Qiu was expelled from Jiangbei No. 3 Middle School, he had also gone to Li Qianqian, and her father had easily solved it. Seeing Li Qianqian’s aggrieved expression, Ye Qiu asked, “What do you want then?” “I want a reward.” “What kind of reward?” Ye Qiu asked, puzzled. “Kiss me first.” As soon as Li Qianqian said that, she tightly hugged Ye Qiu. Ye Qiu didn’t expect Li Qianqian to be more proactive than him. But he just gave her a light kiss, like a dragonfly touching water, on her lips and said, “Is that good enough?” “I also want the same phone you gave Liu Lingxiu.” “Don’t you already have a phone?” “I just want it.” “Next time you come, I’ll take you to buy one.” Although the phone wasn’t important to Li Qianqian, as she used a more expensive one than Liu Lingxiu, because it was gifted by Ye Qiu, it had a different significance. Ye Qiu knew Li Qianqian was very innocent, but because of her background, she had a mischievous and spoiled personality. Getting into Li Qianqian’s car, she dropped Ye Qiu off at Jiangbei No. 3 Middle School’s entrance. When Ye Qiu got out of the car, Li Qianqian said, “Wait for my call. This matter will be resolved quickly.” Li Qianqian was reluctant to leave Ye Qiu so quickly, but eager to solve the issue for him, she drove towards Jiangnan. She wanted to personally talk to her father, not just call him. With the fine tickets as evidence, she believed it wouldn’t be difficult for her father. After Li Qianqian left, Ye Qiu returned to Jiangbei No. 3 Middle School. Since there was still one and a half periods left before the end of class, he went back to the classroom to read a novel. As soon as he sat down, Su Luoluo approached and noticed a distinct girl’s fragrance on Ye Qiu. It wasn’t perfume, but she knew it was left by another girl on Ye Qiu’s clothes, likely when they were close together. Su Luoluo scrutinized Ye Qiu from head to toe and then said, “Which beauty did you meet just now?” Su Luoluo knew it wasn’t Liu Lingxiu’s scent because Liu Lingxiu didn’t have this fragrance. Moreover, Su Luoluo noticed a bit of red on the corner of Ye Qiu’s mouth. It was definitely lipstick. “Caught stealing and didn’t wipe your mouth!” Su Luoluo said. Ye Qiu then remembered his light kiss with Li Qianqian and figured it must have left some of her lipstick on his mouth. Although Ye Qiu didn’t think much of it, if Liu Lingxiu saw it, she would definitely be uncomfortable. He was about to wipe it off with his hand when Su Luoluo handed him a tissue from her bag. Ye Qiu took the tissue and wiped it, immediately seeing the lipstick mark. “Tell me who it was, and I won’t tell Liu Lingxiu.” Su Luoluo said with a sly look in her big eyes fixed on Ye Qiu. “Li Qianqian.” As soon as Ye Qiu said it, Su Luoluo went silent.
