Chapter 2073: Letting You Go Is Not What I Want

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

“Letting you go doesn’t mean letting me go. No one will let me go.”

Ye Qingqiu’s fingers trembled. “Do you think this is interesting?”

“Yeah.”

“But I don’t think it’s interesting. Li Tingshen, isn’t this the life I want?”

Li Tingshen stood up slowly and touched her smooth cheek.

“You think it’s boring and not the life you want… But letting you off isn’t the life I want either.”

Ye Qingqiu felt a stab in her heart as a sense of helplessness overwhelmed her.

As long as he didn’t let her go, she could only live under his watch.

Living in the castle by the cliff and living the best and most luxurious life, she opened the door. Under the cliff were boiling lava. Anyone who took a step forward would be reduced to ashes.

“So? These words sound like you have deep feelings for me, but in reality, in the past three years, you haven’t led a bad life without me.”

She was a winner in life.

She didn’t want to mention Liang Xuer to him.

She looked like a jealous and resentful woman.

After she finished speaking, the room fell silent again.

“… But I’ve thought of better things.”

Ye Qingqiu sneered and waved his arm away. “So I have to be buried with you in a better life?”

Li Tingshen pursed his lips and retracted his hand.

“I’ll get someone to wipe your body.”

Ye Qingqiu closed her eyes.

The negotiation had failed.

Li Tingshen called Mother Wang over. Ye Qingqiu didn’t refuse, but she had to do most of the cleaning herself.

Other than the part where her back couldn’t reach, Mother Wang insisted on helping her.

Seeing her wipe her body, Mother Wang’s heart skipped a beat.

Ye Qingqiu’s injuries weren’t light, but they weren’t serious either. She could take care of herself.

However, for some reason, as long as Ye Qingqiu was involved, everything that seemed pretentious and delicate would seem natural.

Ye Qingqiu remained silent the entire time. Sometimes, when her wound was affected, she would frown and continue to wipe it.

In the beginning, she only felt that Miss Ye was beautiful and had a good figure. She was an absolute beauty in Ping Cheng City.

What kind of person was Mr Li? He was rich and powerful, high and mighty. It was understandable that he would raise such a beauty.

In this society, men had everything they wanted and there were absolute conditions. At such a young age, it was the time when they were the most playful. It would be a waste if they didn’t do something ridiculous.

However, she was definitely a beauty and a living Bodhisattva.

This was not to make her happy, but to make her unhappy.

After taking care of Ye Qingqiu to rest, Mother Wang went downstairs and Li Tingshen prepared dinner alone in the kitchen.

The servants hid in a corner and whispered in disbelief.

Even her well-known girlfriend, Liang Xuer, had never received such treatment.

There were a few dishes that Ye Qingqiu liked.

Mother Wang had once gone to the kitchen and told him that he was injured and couldn’t be angry. She asked them to do it, but Li Tingshen rejected her casually.

Li Tingshen busied himself in the kitchen for more than an hour.

After the dishes were cooked, he placed them in a tray and carried it upstairs.

Ye Qingqiu was still sleeping. Li Tingshen looked at the dark sky outside and placed the tray down. He walked to the bed and bent down to sit beside Ye Qingqiu.

The air conditioner in the house was turned down a little. She liked to sleep under the blanket in the air conditioner during summer.

Her hair was scattered on the pillow, and her sleeping face was calm and quiet.

It turned out that she would burrow into his embrace whenever she saw him. Now, she could actually sleep so well alone.

“A good woman is afraid of a clingy man. Women are amenable to coaxing but not coercion. If you coax her with good words and treat her gently, she will not be able to withstand it one day. Look at Brother Bo, how do you think our sister-in-law came about? Moreover, it’s not like she doesn’t love you.”

Li Tingshen dared to listen to Yin Ruijue.

In fact, for Li Tingshen, who had reached a dead end and was about to be surrounded to death, he was willing to give it a try.

Li Tingshen smelled of kitchen smoke. Not long after, Ye Qingqiu frowned and her eyelashes fluttered. When she opened her eyes and saw Li Tingshen, her heart skipped a beat.

“Time to eat.”

Li Tingshen felt a little regretful. He had wanted to touch her face.

Ye Qingqiu pursed her lips and turned around. “I’m not hungry now.”

Li Tingshen was silent for a while before saying in a tense voice, “Get up and eat when you’re awake.”

“… I haven’t slept well. I’m not feeling well and have no appetite. Take the food out of the room. The smell is disgusting.”

The gentleness on Li Tingshen’s face gradually turned cold. His dark eyes stared at Ye Qingqiu’s fair and beautiful side profile, his emotions unreadable.

It seemed that when the two of them were together, they were either at loggerheads or in a deadlock.

After a long while, he stood up slowly and picked up the tray.

“I’ll get someone to cook porridge for you again.”

Not getting a response, Li Tingshen left the bedroom.

Mother Wang looked at the untouched dinner on the tray and didn’t know what to say.

She thought that Miss Ye would be touched by the dinner prepared by Mr Li, but she didn’t move.

This…

In fact, not only did she not move, she even said that it was disgusting.

There was a hint of forbearance in Li Tingshen’s eyes. When he spoke again, his voice was calm.

“Cook another bowl of porridge and send it to her.”

Mother Wang could only say that.

Li Tingshen looked at the untouched dinner again and clenched his fists tightly.

White bones.

Something kept churning in his chest before it expanded bit by bit. He wanted to go up and grab that heartless woman and ask her what she wanted.

What should he do to satisfy her?

But she would only give him an answer and ask her to let him go.

Impossible.

At this moment, Mother Wang came out of the kitchen and asked, “Mr. Li, do you want to cook plain porridge, seafood or…”

“White porridge.”

Li Tingshen’s voice was cold as he strode towards the door.

If she didn’t leave, he was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to resist lifting her up. Then, the two of them would fall into a dead end.

“Hey, where are you going?”

The only response she got was the slam of the door.

Mother Wang shrank her shoulders in fear.

He looked calm and composed. He had always been refined and cold. Other than that, he did not have any obvious emotions. As long as Miss Ye was involved, his emotions would be revealed.

Mother Wang shook her head and went into the kitchen to prepare porridge and two light dishes.
