Chapter 14: Chapter 14 The Person You Broke Off the Engagement with Is Me Chapter 14: Chapter 14 The Person You Broke Off the Engagement with Is Me Miss Nan Qiao faced a flustered Bai Yurou with a smile in her eyes, breathtakingly beautiful, “Because my master is from the Tang Family.” Li Yehan sat on the sofa, exuding a strong aura, his eyes cold and stern, “I heard that Old Mr. Tang has taken on a closed-door disciple, that would be you, right?” Nan Qiao hadn’t expected Li Yehan to know even this, truly befitting the man in charge of the Li Family, nothing could escape his eyes. Since that was the case, had Li Yehan got his hands on the information about Hou Ze and Zheng Qinnian as well? Luckily, she was prepared, and Li Yehan couldn’t possibly know the real situation of those two men. Nan Qiao’s clear eyes met Li Yehan’s, “Mr. Li really is experienced and knowledgeable, nothing can escape your eyes, I am indeed that closed-door disciple.” Fine then, this facade couldn’t be maintained any longer. Their eyes met, and Li Yehan’s gaze didn’t waver; instead, he raised a hint of a smile, “To become Old Mr. Tang’s closed-door disciple, Miss Nan Qiao really must be exceptionally talented.” Bai Yurou’s back teeth were nearly ground to dust; this was the first time she had heard Li Yehan praise anyone, and it was a woman at that. She had once visited Old Mr. Tang, and without even seeing his face, she had been gently rejected. The thing she had used all her scheming to not acquire, Nan Qiao had gotten effortlessly, how could she not hate her. She didn’t believe Nan Qiao’s medical skills could be better than hers! Bai Yurou bit her teeth and stayed silent, her downcast eyes filled with anger. Bai Zhenyang and Chen Xinwan hadn’t expected Nan Qiao to be Old Mr. Tang’s closed-door disciple; they were happy for her, yet their hearts ached. The path to learning medicine is not easy; Nan Qiao had suffered so much along the way. The couple’s eyes were filled with affection as they looked at Nan Qiao. Old Mr. Li broke the silence with a smile, “Qiaoqiao, I’ve bought you some gifts, I don’t know if you’ll like them.” With a look from Old Mr. Li, the bodyguards brought out the gifts one by one, filling the table. A sapphire necklace worth fifty million, a pink diamond worth thirty million, and some other jewelry that dazzled Bai Yurou. Then, a bodyguard came over and opened a sack. Old Mr. Li said with a smile, “Qiaoqiao, this is the red envelope I’ve wrapped for you, welcome home.” Nan Qiao looked over, a sack full of Chairman Mao banknotes. Nan Qiao: ... Old Mr. Li continued, “Although it’s quite popular to make transfers nowadays, cash is more tangible, and seeing it can also bring joy to the heart.” Li Yehan hadn’t expected, the old man to be so good at giving gifts, he even thought of cash. Li Yehan had a bodyguard bring over a box, opened it in front of Nan Qiao, “This is my gift, welcome home.” Upon opening the box, there lay a diamond crown worth one billion. Nan Qiao: “Thank you for these gifts, but they are too valuable, I can’t accept them, please take them back.” Following Nan Qiao, Chen Xinwan said, “Uncle Li, Ye Han, thank you for the gifts for my daughter. However, please take them back, if Qiaoqiao likes something, I will buy it for her.” Why was the Li Family giving so many gifts? Bai Zhenyang suspected Li Yehan’s intentions through his gaze. Could Li Yehan possibly be thinking of pursuing his precious daughter Qiaoqiao? What a joke! Qiaoqiao had just returned to the Bai Family, he didn’t want her to marry a man like Li Yehan. According to rumors, Li Yehan had a violent temper and was unpredictable; how could his Qiaoqiao be with such a despicable man? Moreover, they shouldn’t receive rewards without merit; the Bai Family could certainly afford to buy such extravagant gifts for Qiaoqiao! Bai Zhenyang spoke up, “Uncle Li, Ye Han, thank you for the gifts to Qiaoqiao, but we shouldn’t receive rewards without merit, please take these things back.” Miss Nan Qiao was very fond of Bai Zhenyang and Chen Xinwan’s approach. If it were Zhou Hongqi, upon seeing these valuable gifts, he would be so inclined as to sell her in an instant. The grateful look in Miss Nan Qiao’s eyes made Bai Zhenyang feel even more that Zhou Hongqi was no good, and that he must have treated Miss Nan Qiao terribly. The day was still bright, and it was about time for Zhou Hongqi to go bankrupt. As for these gifts, they would also have to be returned. However, how could Old Mr. Li and Li Yehan simply take the gifts back home unopened? Old Mr. Li sighed and began his painful self-disclosure, “Zhenyang, giving gifts to Qiaoqiao is also a gesture of my goodwill. When I look at Qiaoqiao, it’s like looking at my own granddaughter. My good-for-nothing son, he can’t even produce a daughter, what a waste! Unlike you, who has such a bright and capable daughter, how wonderful.” Li Yehan nodded in agreement, “Grandpa is absolutely right.” Bai Yurou: Do you even hear what you’re saying? Is it just because Miss Nan Qiao is a bit pretty? Or because she saved Old Mr. Li’s life? What’s so great about her? Does she deserve such high praise from Old Mr. Li? Bai Zhenyang and Chen Xinwan were indeed very happy; how could they not be, when their daughter was being praised? Li Yehan followed up with more praise, “Qiaoqiao saved my grandpa’s life; she’s a lifesaver to the Li Family. These gifts are nothing compared to my grandfather’s life.” Old Mr. Li: “Ye Han can make money, and if it’s spent, we can earn it back. Qiaoqiao, didn’t you say I need to keep my spirits up? But now, I just can’t feel at ease. If you don’t accept these gifts, my heart will be in so much pain.” Li Yehan: “For Grandpa’s health, Qiaoqiao, please do us the favor and accept these gifts.” Bai Yurou: ... Accepting gifts needs to be this much of a struggle? She’s really had enough! Then they looked at Miss Nan Qiao, who had a troubled expression, “Grandpa Li, Li Yehan has already given me quite a few gifts on your behalf, like a bag from a store last time, and many other expensive items; really, it’s too much.” Old Mr. Li waved his hands repeatedly, “It’s not too much, the more the better for a girl. Just take them, or my heart will start hurting again.” Old Mr. Li clutched his chest, appearing extremely distressed. Bai Zhenyang & Chen Xinwan & Miss Nan Qiao: ?? Struggling to give away expensive gifts? Li Yehan, sitting aside, was quite surprised; when had his grandpa learned to act so well? As for Bai Yurou, she was utterly astonished. Just as Miss Nan Qiao was about to refuse, the butler walked in and respectfully said, “Mr. Li, Mr. Zhou Hongqi is at the door looking for you. He wants to discuss the matter of his family’s broken marriage engagement.” Li Yehan: “Tell him I’ve already called off the engagement and there is no room for discussion.” The butler nodded and left. All that could be seen in Bai Yurou’s eyes was joy. Li Yehan refused Zhou Family’s marriage proposal, so wouldn’t it be her turn next? Bai Yurou knew her opportunity had arrived. However, she then heard Miss Nan Qiao’s surprised exclamation, “Your family is the Li Family with a marriage arrangement with the Zhou Family?” Li Yehan frowned, “How do you know?” Bai Zhenyang was taken aback, then said with a laugh, “Isn’t that a coincidence? Our Qiaoqiao was mixed up with a child from the Zhou Family. If Qiaoqiao had stayed in the Zhou Family, wouldn’t she be engaged to Ye Han, my daughter Qiaoqiao?” Li Yehan: ... He suddenly felt that maybe this marriage didn’t need to be called off after all. Old Mr. Li: !! What now? Was the granddaughter-in-law he had within his grasp about to fly away?
