Chapter 1272: Chapter 1272: Original Sin (6)

Du Qingyu regretted deeply; she should not have provoked Ding Ye; otherwise, she wouldn’t be in such a passive position now.

After that, Du Qingyu made several phone calls.

An hour later, a car came to pick her up. She got into the car, looked around, and instructed the driver, “Drive slowly; someone wants to kill me!”

She was still so young; she didn’t want to die. She could tell that Ding Ye was not joking. The accident that occurred last night, Ding Ye did not hesitate to blame her for it. Next, Ding Ye would certainly have other moves.

As it turned out, her guess was correct. When they were almost at the Ye Family’s place, their sedan nearly got hit again. By the time she arrived at the company, she got out of the car with weak legs, unable to imagine when such situations would end. Should she call the police?

But what good would calling the police do? She had no evidence to prove it was Ding Ye’s doing. For a moment, she only hated herself for why she had to provoke Ding Ye, this unreasonable demon…

At seven o’clock in the evening, a visitor came to Qingmu Garden; it was Ye Shiqing.

He had recently left Taicheng and only rushed back today because he saw the news of Su Hongxing and Ding Ye’s marriage.

He made a special trip to Qingmu Garden to verify the truth.

The moment he saw Ye Qilan, Ye Shiqing’s gaze became fixed: “Sisi?”

This was indeed Ye Qilan. Looking at the photo didn’t reveal much, but standing in person, it was Ye Qilan, wasn’t it?

“Ye Shiqing, you are indeed perceptive, recognizing him at a glance, whereas Fu Yan and the others refused to believe he is Ye Qilan.” Su Hongxing said with a smile.

Ye Shiqing, excitedly holding Ye Qilan’s shoulders, said, “Sisi, is it really you? How could you…”

The question he didn’t voice was exactly what everyone wanted to know. Unfortunately, Ye Qilan wouldn’t say, so they didn’t have any idea what was going on either.

Ye Qilan brushed off Ye Shiqing’s hands, his demeanor slightly cold: “What are you doing in my house?”

Ye Shiqing was taken aback, then understood why Ye Qilan was cold towards him: “Sisi, I have wronged you, and I have nothing to say about it.”

“The one you’ve wronged is not me, but my wife. Back then, she was all alone, and you could have protected her, but you chose your office. Ye Shiqing, your choice is understandable, but since you did not fulfill my request, I see no need to regard you as a brother anymore!” Ye Qilan replied indifferently.

“Ye Qilan, don’t be like this. It was tough for Ye Shiqing back then. He did it not for his office but to protect Xiaoqiao. If you were in the same situation, you would also choose to protect me, wouldn’t you?” Su Hongxing stepped forward to mediate, not wishing to see the brothers turn against each other.

“I only look at the results. He knew how important you were to me, but he chose to abandon you. From the moment he decided to ignore you, I no longer had a brother!” Ye Qilan coldly looked at Ye Shiqing: “Qingmu Garden does not welcome you, please leave.”

Seeing Ye Qilan’s resolute attitude, Su Hongxing couldn’t help but persuade again: “Ye Qilan, can you not be so obstinate…”

“Am I being obstinate? If I had died and couldn’t come back, would Qingmu Garden have been taken over by old man Ye, and would our children deserve to be stolen by Cao Shiyu? Su Hongxing, don’t forget, it was I who stole the children back, and it was I who reclaimed our home. And that is all because I’m alive!”

Ye Qilan’s words silenced everyone present.

Although everyone felt Ye Qilan’s reaction was too intense, if Ye Qilan had not been able to come back from death, the helpless Su Hongxing, how would she reclaim her children?

At the time when Su Hongxing needed help the most, Ye Shiqing did not offer a helping hand. That was Ye Shiqing’s original sin.

“Sisi, I wronged you and Su Hongxing. Regardless, I am glad to see you well, and that you personally protect Su Hongxing and the two children,” Ye Shiqing said without making any excuses, then turned and left.

The warm atmosphere was shattered due to Ye Shiqing’s arrival and departure.

Little Pudding, sensing the tense atmosphere, held onto Qiao Qiao’s neck and said softly, “Auntie Qiao, Daddy is so scary when he’s angry.”
