The real heiress's disguise has been exposed, making her the most beloved member of Beijing
Chapter 103 The Death of Qi Huan's Mother
Qin Yulian knew she couldn't out-argue Jiang Youli, so she suppressed the strong urge to turn around and argue with her, and quickly followed her husband out of the ward.
"Tch, you want to settle scores with me?" Jiang Youli pouted and popped another grape into her mouth.
Zhang Susu and Jiang Yehan left the ward in a tacit manner, giving Qi Huan and Jiang Youli some private space to cultivate their relationship.
Cheng Jing tactfully left.
After the ward door closed, Qi Huan's gaze was fixed on Jiang Youli. His eyes sparkled with undisguised admiration and deep affection. "You really played that move of deliberately getting involved with Jiang Zhao very well. You're probably the only one in the world who would dare to do that and still get away unscathed."
Hearing Qi Huan's praise, Jiang Youli couldn't help but smile and say, "Don't try to imitate me so easily. I wouldn't take such a risk if I wasn't 100% sure."
“My grandfather asked me if I wanted to postpone my engagement, and I refused,” Qi Huan said.
Jiang Youli immediately chimed in, "I guessed so too, and I also declined the suggestion to postpone."
The two exchanged a smile; after all, they hadn't been seriously injured in the car accident.
Qi Huan just wanted to hold a grand engagement banquet with Jiang Youli immediately to announce his relationship with Jiang Youli to the world, and he didn't want to delay for even a day.
Having eaten too many grapes while watching the play, Jiang Youli was now quite satisfied. So she stopped, wiped her hands with a tissue, and said, "Come here, I'll give you today's treatment."
"Okay." Qi Huan pushed the wheelchair closer.
During the treatment, Jiang Youli focused on administering acupuncture and asked with concern, "By the way, how's things going on your end? What did your dad and Qi Yue say to you yesterday?"
When asked about this, Qi Huan replied calmly, "Several projects in the group have run into problems, and Qi Yue can't handle them."
Jiang Youli raised an eyebrow. "You did this, didn't you?"
Qi Huan did not deny it, "Yes, consider it a warning to him."
Jiang Youli then asked, "Have you found any clues about whether Qi Yue is your biological brother or not?"
When this topic was brought up, Qi Huan's previously calm gaze instantly became somewhat deep, and he slowly shook his head, "No."
Jiang Youli couldn't help but sigh, "If Qi Yue isn't your biological brother, then your father's plan for this was truly meticulous."
Qi Huan's expression grew increasingly cold. "So many years have passed, it's indeed difficult to investigate. If I hadn't lost both my legs in the kidnapping of Qi Yu, and Qi Yue and Qi Yu hadn't been so eager to take advantage of me, how could I have ever imagined that Qi Yue might not be my biological brother, but rather an illegitimate child that Qi Tianxiang deliberately switched?"
"I'm actually conflicted about this. I hope that Qi Yue isn't my biological brother, then everything he and Qi Yu did to me can be explained, and I can let go of the fact that it wasn't my biological brother who wanted me dead."
"But on the other hand, I'm also thinking, if Qi Yue really isn't my biological brother, then what happened to my biological brother? When he was sent away, was he already poisoned by Qi Tianxiang? If he's still alive, where is he now, and how is he doing?"
Jiang Youli's eyes flickered slightly, but her hand holding the silver needle did not hesitate at all. She accurately inserted it into the acupoint and said, "I understand what you mean, but internal strife is useless. Since you have doubts about Qi Yue's identity, you must thoroughly investigate no matter how bad the possible outcome may be. When the time comes, you should take revenge where necessary and search where necessary."
Qi Huan laughed and said, "Well, Xiao Li'er, what should I do? I really enjoy being with you. Every time I hear you speak, my mood improves a lot."
Jiang Youli chuckled, glanced up at him, met his dark and affectionate gaze, and said with a smile, "Then let's be together. I didn't say you weren't allowed to be with me. Besides, after the engagement banquet on Saturday, I will be your rightful fiancée. It's only natural for us to be together. It would be a problem if we weren't together."
Her words were always so straightforward yet delightful.
Qi Huan couldn't help but feel grateful to Qi Yu for the kidnapping, which crippled his legs, canceled his marriage to Jiang Yonghe, and made him choose to go to the village to meet the real daughter who was to be taken back by the Jiang family to marry in place of him, all in order to heal his legs...
This gradual process led him to the woman he fell in love with at first sight.
Halfway through the treatment, Cheng Jing pushed open the door and came in.
"Excuse me, young master, your father and Qi Yue are here again."
Qi Huan said calmly, "Let them wait."
"Yes."
Cheng Jing left again.
A moment later, through the door, they heard the dissatisfied voice of a middle-aged man coming from outside.
"What is he doing in the next room? Making me, his father, wait?"
"Cheng Jing, tell him I have an urgent matter and he needs to come over immediately to resolve it for me!"
Hearing the middle-aged man's matter-of-fact tone outside the door, Jiang Youli couldn't help but sneer: "Your father has already found out that Qi Yu is his illegitimate daughter, and you're still putting on airs?"
At this point, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Speaking of which, you don't resemble your father at all; you must look more like your mother."
When Qi Huan mentioned her mother, her eyes dimmed. "My mother passed away when I was five years old, so I don't know much about her. I only know from what others say that my mother was more capable at work than my father. When I was little, my father couldn't stand that my mother was more capable than him and always suppressed him. He always liked to show off in front of others to prove that my mother had to give him face. My mother gave him face and let him show off. Later, after I gained my grandfather's appreciation, my father's status in the Qi family rose accordingly, and he became even more fond of showing off in front of outsiders."
"How can you tolerate this?" Jiang Youli asked, puzzled.
Qi Huan smiled and said, "Actually, I didn't spoil him at first, but later he also put in a lot of effort in getting Grandpa to agree to bring Qi Yue back. But now that I think about it, the reason why Qi Tianxiang was so enthusiastic about bringing Qi Yue back was probably to complete his plan."
"How could someone as outstanding as your mother have fallen for your father?" Jiang Youli couldn't help but wonder.
Qi Huan thought for a moment and gave a reason: "It's probably because he's handsome. My mother thinks that she has enough genes for intelligence, so she has to choose someone with good looks."
Jiang Youli was taken aback, and looking at Qi Huan's face, she suddenly realized, "Okay, I really can't refuse someone's looks."
"So, when your younger brother was about to be sent away by your grandfather because of what a fortune teller said, did your mother agree to it?" Jiang Youli didn't think his mother was the kind of person who would passively accept whatever came her way.
Qi Huan shook his head and explained, "Of course my mother disagreed, but my younger brother Qi Yue was secretly sent away by my father. My mother died in a car accident on her way to find him after he was sent away by my father."
