Chapter 2152 - 2112: Leaving in a Hurry

It’s already past ten o’clock at night in New York time. When Ye Qiu and Miranda were brought to the villa by that maid, Miranda decided not to take a shower anymore.

After all, she showered before coming over and just asked the maid to prepare a new nightgown for her.

When Ye Qiu came out comfortably after taking a shower, he saw Miranda already in a nightgown waiting for him.

"Qiu, let’s sleep."

Miranda said.

After Xia Jing was called over by Li Xiaofen, since Xia Jing also showered before coming, the two women just lay there chatting, talking into the middle of the night.

When they both felt sleepy, Xia Jing intended to sleep alone.

Because she’s not used to sleeping with others, and she heard that Li Xiaofen snores while sleeping, which she couldn’t stand.

Of course, it’s quite normal for some slightly chubby women to snore.

After leaving Li Xiaofen’s room, Xia Jing was taken by a maid to a room next to where Ye Qiu was sleeping.

She thought Ye Qiu and Miranda had already fallen asleep, but unexpectedly, she could vaguely hear some sounds from the next room that made her blush.

Could it be that Ye Qiu and that Cuban woman are still awake?

She was quite surprised by this.

Is Miranda really keeping up all night?

Though Xia Jing hadn’t experienced that kind of feeling, how could these two have so much energy?

Early the next morning.

Ye Qiu and Miranda woke up.

Miranda appeared even more radiant, looking distinctly different after Ye Qiu’s... care.

The two got up, washed, and were then invited by Li Xiaofen and Mr. William to have morning tea.

In the warm sunlight, they sipped at their tea in Mr. William’s estate courtyard.

There were milk, bread, and various pastries.

"Dr. Ye, Ms. Miranda, did you sleep well last night?" Li Xiaofen asked.

"Not bad." Ye Qiu replied.

Li Xiaofen knew that Xia Jing and she had talked late into the night and perhaps hadn’t slept enough, so she didn’t wake her too early.

"Dr. Ye, here’s the thing. Dr. Smith called this morning to ask if you’re still in America." Li Xiaofen recalled this morning’s call.

At first, it seemed strange.

Soon, she learned that he had indeed been diagnosed with a malignant tumor, specifically brain cancer, similar to her husband, Mr. William’s previous situation.

But now, Dr. Smith’s condition appears worse, and the cancer cells seem to be spreading quickly.

"Is something wrong?"

"He said he wants you to check on him."

"Is he scared to die? However, he hasn’t honored the wager before."

Regarding this, Li Xiaofen felt that Dr. Smith was simply trying to renege on the deal.

After all, the 10 million US Dollar wager might be something he cannot afford.

"Is Dr. Ye not planning to see him?" Li Xiaofen asked.

"Just tell him I’ve returned to my country."

Returned to the country?

It seems Ye Qiu must be quite angry with Dr. Smith.

Li Xiaofen picked up the phone to call Dr. Smith back, speaking in fluent American English: "Dr. Smith, sorry, Dr. Ye has already flown back to China."

Flown back to China?

How could this be?

"Could you quickly help me get in touch with him to come back? I might be dying."

Dr. Smith said anxiously.

"I’m sorry, Dr. Smith. I’m not very familiar with Dr. Ye, and he’s extremely upset with you for not honoring the wager, so it’s probably not possible for him to help you."

Not possible.

What should I do?

Dr. Smith was dumbfounded.

He recalled how he indeed didn’t adhere to the wager with Ye Qiu, and he doesn’t have evidence in Ye Qiu’s possession.

Now, it turned out he was the one asking for help.

Thinking about this, Dr. Smith began to regret underestimating the young man’s medical skills and for making a bet with him.

After Li Xiaofen hung up, Ye Qiu and Miranda shortly finished eating, and since Xia Jing was still asleep, they could only stroll around the estate.

European and American buildings are mostly like this. Apart from the skyscrapers in city centers, the suburbs are sparsely populated, with houses having large yards and gardens.

Mr. William’s place was no different, being wealthier than most families, there were housekeepers and maids here.

And the garage, swimming pool, and such needn’t be mentioned.

The current weather in America is excellent.

Seasons exist here, with October’s leaves all turning yellow or red, looking beautiful.

Miranda pulled Ye Qiu along for a long walk, then they headed back.

Around nine o’clock New York time, Xia Jing finally got up.

But having gone to bed so late last night, she still felt quite drowsy.

"Xia Jing, sorry for chatting too late last night, keeping you from sleeping well."

In fact, Xia Jing knew this was just one reason. The other was because of the noise from Ye Qiu and Miranda’s room next door last night, keeping her from sleeping well.

And when she finally fell asleep, she had dreams.

In the dream, she vaguely remembered doing such things with Ye Qiu.

For some reason, seeing Ye Qiu now made Xia Jing feel a bit embarrassed.

"Ye Qiu, shall we head back to the hotel later?"

"Weren’t we going out later?"

"Why don’t you have lunch before leaving?" Li Xiaofen suggested.

Eating lunch or not didn’t matter to Xia Jing since she felt uncomfortable in her wet intimate wear and wanted to return to the hotel to change.

"I have to go take something back; we can have lunch in Chinatown."

Xia Jing wasn’t in the mood for morning tea.

Seeing this, Li Xiaofen didn’t insist.

When Ye Qiu was about to leave with the two women, Li Xiaofen handed over a check saying, "Dr. Ye, this is for you."

Ye Qiu glanced at it, a five million US Dollar check from Citibank.

He didn’t have to look to know it was Mr. William’s medical fee.

Ye Qiu took it and put it in his pocket without another look.

"Xia Jing, you all come back to play sometime!" Li Xiaofen said again.

Once in the car, Ye Qiu drove them away from there, heading back to the five-star hotel.

On the way, Ye Qiu caught a scent from Xia Jing’s side, understanding why she was so eager to return to the hotel.

When they arrived at the hotel parking lot, Xia Jing hurried out of the car into the hotel.

Ye Qiu and Miranda got out more leisurely and went upstairs.

By lunch, Xia Jing, after going back to bathe and change into fresh intimate wear, felt much more comfortable.

Still, for some reason, thinking about last night made her blush and her heart race.
