When Ling Yu pushed the door open and went in, Ling Qi was sitting in front of the bay window looking out the window in a daze. She didn't even notice Ling Yu coming in.

Indoors, Ling Qi was still wearing thick home clothes, but she still couldn't hide her increasingly thin figure.

Ling Yu lowered his gloomy eyes, took a blanket from the bed and walked over to put it on Ling Qi, "What are you thinking about? You want to leave your eldest brother secretly?"

Ling Qi came back to her senses the moment Ling Yu spoke, but she didn't respond or look back at Ling Yu.

A not too heavy blow hit his head, causing the person to frown slightly.

Ling Yu pulled up the round stool next to the low table and sat on the side of the bay window, half-jokingly, "Why, do you really want to do this?"

"Still thinking about how to get rid of Yan Xing?"

Ling Qi kept turning sideways towards Ling Yu, no matter what he said, she had no intention of making any conversation and turned her head to look at him.

Ling Yu leaned forward, stretched out his hand to pinch Ling Qi's shoulders and turned her around, "Smelly girl, my eldest brother spoke a little harshly the day before yesterday. Are you still angry with your eldest brother?"

As he spoke, he pinched Ling Qi's thin little face and smiled, "You said you were so angry that day. Why did you apologize to your elder brother? Is it wrong to care about you and treat your elder brother as an outsider? I still feel that I Now that your wings are hardened, you don’t need big brother to care anymore?”

Seeing Ling Qi being pinched and frowning again, Ling Yu let go in time.

The person on the bay window looked at Ling Yu intently, "Are you very free today? You don't have to go to work?"

Ling Yu raised his eyebrows, "Why, do you think your elder brother is annoying? Everyone is celebrating the New Year, so why can't your brother have time to rest?"

Ling Qi obviously didn't believe it. She knew how busy Ling Yu was at work.

The great power comes with the great burden. It is not easy for the president of a country to just talk about it.

She had known this truth since she was a child, from Ling Zhi, who had never seen her face to face.

And Ling Yu, who was forced to take this position at the age of fourteen, was even worse. Even during the Chinese New Year, there was no chance of seeing him during the day. Only when she was in the palace, Ling Yu would be wrapped in coldness and fatigue, no matter how late it was. I want to come and sit with her.

But is Lingyu too busy this year? Even if he was afraid that she would sneak away, he wouldn't do it so early in the morning.

Ling Qi looked at him with a calm expression, "Brother, if you have anything to do here, tell me."

"Smelly girl." Ling Yu scolded with a smile, and then the smile on his face slowly faded away.

Ling Yu suddenly looked serious, "Xiao Qi, big brother wants to ask you, are you willing to go to Yanxing?"

Ling Qi guessed that Ling Yu's visit might be about Pei Yanxing's affairs, but she didn't expect that the question would be so direct.

His face froze for a moment, but in a blink of an eye it returned to his calm look, and he turned to look out the window again, "Brother, don't hurt others."

Listening to this tone of voice that no longer held any hope, Ling Yu's heart suddenly clenched into a ball and it ached severely.

He couldn't imagine that if Ye Xunying's sudden awakening hadn't given them some hope, wouldn't it be...

Ling Yu didn't dare to think about this outcome, because now Ling Qi's surroundings were filled with a hint of despair, and she seemed to be wasting every day until she couldn't stand it any longer.

At this moment, his hatred for Ye Xunying reached its peak.

Even though it was the one who gave them life.

After a long time, Ling Yu stabilized his emotions and pursed his lips tightly, "Xiao Qi, if..."

"If Big Brother says that someone might have a way to cure the poison in your body, will you go?"

The smoke of traditional Chinese medicine that was always spreading was lingering in the quiet bedroom. Ling Qi turned around, her slightly narrowed eyes were full of inquiry, but she didn't say anything.

Looking into each other's eyes, Ling Yu tightened his jaw and moved the corners of his lips slightly, "Xiao Qi, she's awake."

Outside the door, Pei Yanxing followed Ling Yu ten minutes after he went upstairs and stood quietly leaning against the corridor.

It took nearly an hour for the bedroom door to open.

Ling Yu looked confused, "Xiao Qi went to change clothes, you can come with her."

"What's her attitude?" Pei Yanxing asked in a deep voice.

Ling Yu closed the bedroom door, frowned and shook his head, "No attitude."

Lingyu told the whole story of what happened that year and everything that happened after Ye Xunying woke up, including what the Ye family wanted her to come over for dinner today.

"Xiaoqi, I won't force you to go to dinner today. If you don't want to see him, just go back to grandma. Don't worry about what they say. But about toxins, don't be angry with anyone. Your body is your own."

Ling Qi lowered her eyes and said nothing, her expression unchanged, but Ling Yu knew that she was resisting.

"Xiao Qi, if you don't want to go, we won't go today. We'll just stay at home. Big brother has gone home..."

"Go, why don't you go?" Ling Qi opened her eyelids and said lightly, "I haven't seen my grandparents since I came back, so I have to go and see them."

Ling Yu looked at her, "Xiao Qi..."

Ling Qi stood up from the bay window and said, "Brother, please go out first. I'll change my clothes and go down."

Before Ling Yu could say anything else, Ling Qi walked over to the cloakroom without mentioning Ye Xunying in every word.

"Yan Xing, it's hard to persuade him."

Pei Yanxing's dark eyes were narrowed, and the air pressure around his body was low. "I'll go and check the situation before we talk. But brother..."

"The Ye family had better not use moral kidnapping to stimulate her, otherwise don't blame me for causing trouble on your territory and not giving you face."

Even if the Ye family is the right-hand man of the Ling family, it is the maternal grandfather's family of the two brothers and sisters.

Turning around and preparing to go downstairs, "I'm going to change A Ye's clothes."

Half an hour later, there were still two cars. Ling Qi and Ling Luye were sitting in Ling Yu's car, while Pei Lin drove Pei Yanxing towards Ye's house.

At eleven o'clock, the car stopped outside the gate of Ye's house.

When the servants on duty outside saw this, some hurried over to greet him, while others went in to inform him.

Lingchuan and Pei Lin followed behind carrying gifts. Just as they stepped onto the threshold, an arrogant sports car drove in from the intersection they had just walked through, setting off a gust of cold wind.

Ye Qingci slammed the car door with an angry movement, frowned and walked up the steps, "Cousin, brother-in-law, why did you really bring her here? Who asked you to come?!"

Before the two men spoke, Ling Qi said quietly, "I can't come?"

Ye Qingci pursed his lips tightly, "You know I didn't mean that."

Ling Qi: "I don't know."

Ye Qingci: "..."

"Let's go!" He stretched out his hand to pull Ling Qi, "You don't have to eat this meal today. Come back in a few days. If you want to eat, go to my place. I'll call that Ruan Qian and Fang Jianing. Let’s eat together.”

Ling Qi stood still, "You haven't stayed at home these days?"

Ye Qingci's face was really tight and he pursed his lips and said nothing.

Not only these days, Ye Xunying "ran away from home" long before the Ye family decided to bring Ye Xunying back for the New Year.

He said, "You love your daughters and sisters. I can't bear it. I live under the same roof with an executioner. I choke when I eat. I'm afraid of being choked to death."

This made the second elder very angry, and Mr. Ye was so angry that he shouted: "Go away."

Ye Qingci really didn't come back. It was Ye Qinghuai who called him just now and told him that Ling Qi and the others were on their way over now, so he rushed here from his apartment.

"Okay A Ci." Ling Yu pulled his hand away, "Xiao Qi already knows, she came here on her own."

While they were talking, Ye Xunming and Ye Qinghuai had already led people to greet them.
