Ye Yifan was clearly shocked. He looked down and started laughing. Shen Qianshu looked at him, baffled, while Tong Hua reached out to slap his forehead. “What are you laughing about?”
“Little sis-in-law, I’m young! Staying up all night is not a problem for me. I’m all energized after a two-hour nap,” Ye Yifan said and smiled.
Shen Qianshu smiled back at him too.
The time she spent in the hospital was long. Zhong Ran sent someone to guard outside the hospital entrance. Gu Yuanli did not come to visit her too, but he sent someone to deliver a bouquet of flowers. Shen Qianshu was indifferent. After staying in the hospital for almost a week, the doctor allowed her to be discharged. She then returned to Rose Castle. During that period of time, the old lady had been holding back Ye Ling’s will and did not announce it. The whole AG was in a state of panic, but the great thing was that Ye Tingjun came back and landed in AG. The rumors and gossip that were once repressed all rapidly held down the situation. AG thus did not become a mess. Due to Shen Qianshu’s injury, she eventually withdrew from the stone gambling competition, regrettably missing it.
“You’re feeling down because you missed the chance to take part in the stone gambling competition?” Lin Xiaojuan could not help but ask her.
“That can’t be helped too! I’m injured, and I’m too lazy to take part in the competition. It’s not like the stone gambling competition is only held just this once. It’s alright missing out this year.”
However, the rumors she heard when she went back to work were not as nice anymore.
As she had taken a really long leave, her boss actually felt slightly unhappy with her. Luckily, there were Lu Mengxi and Chen Qiuxiang in her group. Thus, the cases they had at hand did not get piled up. However, Zhou Lulu highly regarded the stone gambling competition this time.
“Shen Qianshu, did you not take part in the competition because you were scared of losing to Lu Mengxi?”
Shen Qianshu looked up at Zhou Lulu and scoffed. “I’m scared of losing? Are you kidding me?”
Zhou Lulu looked at her sarcastically and said, “Then why did you not take part in the competition?”
“You should be glad that I did not take part. I heard that there were only eight spots for the individual category this time round. Me not taking part in it means that I have gifted you a spot. You should work hard!”
Zhou Lulu was livid. Shen Qianshu remained focused on doing her tests. Her wound had not fully recovered yet, so it was still really painful. She ate a painkiller and continued to stand for the whole day while doing her tests. She had really taken a very long leave this time. Luckily, their job was also not like the usual 9 am to 5 pm inflexible office jobs; they could enjoy a really long break after successfully completing a big case. Shen Qianshu took on a really urgent case, and after solving her boss’s problems, her boss’s mood then became slightly better. Her boss also felt relieved that Shen Qianshu did not take part in the stone gambling competition. If she did take part and had gotten first place, she would have triumphed over Lu Mengxi. That would also equate to Gubelin losing its face.
When Shen Qianshu did not take part, her boss thought in his heart, This woman really knows the right thing to do!
Regarding her long absence from work, her boss then turned a blind eye to it.
Lu Mengxi knocked on the door and went into her office. She then handed a report to her.
“Tomorrow is the stone gambling competition. I truly hope that you’ll be able to take part.”
“That’s not necessary. Congratulations, you have one less strong competitor.”
“I don’t care. When I take part in a competition, I depend on my own abilities.”
“Lu Mengxi, this industry is not as big as it seems, but it’s not small too. We will surely meet one day. Why the hurry?”
Lu Mengxi sneered and said, “Is it because of Ye Ling?”
Shen Qianshu looked at her coldly and chose not to answer her. This topic was like a bloody wound to her.
“Ye Ling is dead, but you don’t look sad at all. But it’s no wonder as I heard that he left all his inheritance to your son. Shen Qianshu, you’re really… scheming enough!”

Towards Lu Mengxi’s provocation, Shen Qianshu had no reaction at all. No matter how devastated I was, no matter how deep into the abyss I fell, why should I display all my emotions in front of you—someone I’m not even close to? My feelings for Ye Ling are also not something you can understand and experience.
For Ye Ling, she barged into Ghost City all by herself and almost lost her life. Did she have to say it in front of everyone?
True love was never about a verbal pledge of love.
The person that loved you deeply was always showing it through actions, not words.
“Are you jealous? Envious? I am a winner in life. I easily gained a huge sum of inheritance.” Shen Qianshu smiled alluringly, hell-bent on angering Lu Mengxi. “Of course he would leave his inheritance to me. Did you think he would leave it to you? Being jealous and envious of me will not do anything. It will never be yours.”
“Shen Qianshu, you’re such a slut!” Lu Mengxi ripped off her image of an elegant and graceful lady, and vulgarities came spilling out of her mouth. “You have indeed harbored ill intentions for Ye Ling since a long time ago. You were really just attracted to his wealth. You don’t love him at all.”
“Lu Mengxi, who are you to comment on our relationship? Who are you to discipline me using your so-called high morals and values? Who are you to Ye Ling? Everything between me and Ye Ling was consensual. You have no right to comment! You’re just an outsider! Do you understand? I can’t believe you even boasted that you’re an elegant young lady! I don’t even dare to learn your manners. You don’t even have the basic respect for someone, much less loving someone. Why do you have an expression as if I have snatched away your lover? What a joke! Ye Ling did not even remember who you were! Your face is just like a clear blank space in his heart. Don’t you feel ashamed?”
Lu Mengxi had just planned to do business with Gu Yuanli. She wanted to destroy Gu Yuanli and to seek revenge for Ye Ling. Even if she was unable to kill Gu Yuanli, she also wanted to ruin him. But now, she was standing there and being scolded shamelessly by Shen Qianshu. Ye Ling could not even remember your face. Whatever you do for him is all one-sided!
Wishful thinking!
She was Lu Family’s precious daughter; superior to others since birth. This circle was not short of aristocratic ladies, but she was the most well-respected one. She was used to being superior. Thus, at this moment, she found it really hard to accept.
Was Ye Ling blind?
He could not see her genuineness and sincerity but was attracted to Shen Qianshu instead—someone who only had looks.
“You’re just a flower vase. Who are you to be loved by Ye Ling?” Lu Mengxi replied.
“He’s shallow. He likes a flower vase. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame your parents for not giving you a pretty face.” Shen Qianshu knew where her weakest spot was. She was in a bad mood, and Lu Mengxi came to find trouble with her just at the right time.
She was then not polite anymore.
“You…”
“Oh, you feel indignant? Go for plastic surgery then.” Shen Qianshu said and smiled brightly at her. “However, don’t put the doctor in a difficult spot too. It is surgically difficult to become more beautiful than me.”
Lu Mengxi was so angry that she almost spat out blood. She then stormed out of the room.
Shen Qianshu sneered and said, “Young and naive!”
She actually dared to argue with her.
Shen Qianshu gently touched her wound. Her injuries were not fully recovered yet, and it was really still not suitable for her to go to work. After getting angry just now, her wound began to hurt even more. She did not wish to rely too much on medications and thus could only endure the pain. After the last jewel was appraised, her work had also ended.
Just as she knocked off from work, little CEO Li’s loud and flashy car was already parked downstairs. He carried a bouquet of lilies and was smiling sweetly at her.
“Baby Shushu, long time no see.”
