"Qi Yu, the young master's legs were crippled because he saved you. Not only do you not know how to be grateful, but you also think that the young master has become a cripple and is probably no longer able to become the heir of the Qi family. So you changed your attitude towards the young master instantly and mocked him time and time again. How can you be so naive? The young master is not dead, and you and Qi Yue think that you can step on the young master's head and show off your power."

After Cheng Jing finished speaking, he grabbed a bottle of wine from the wine cabinet next to him without even blinking, and smashed the bottle hard against Qi Yu's knee.

A muffled thud was heard, followed by Qi Yu's terrified scream.

"what!"

The sharp, piercing scream instantly echoed throughout the entire room.

Qi Yu's face was contorted in pain. She curled up, clutching her knees tightly to the ground where the bottle had hit her, rolling back and forth on the cold, hard floor, uttering pitiful cries.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Youli, who had been standing aside observing coldly, raised her eyebrows slightly and uttered two words: "Oh ho."

Then, she turned to look at Qi Huan, who was slowly pushing her wheelchair toward her, and said in a slightly teasing tone, "Your assistant Cheng is really ruthless, she doesn't know how to be gentle with women at all."

Upon hearing this, Qi Huan smiled faintly and replied, "That depends on whether the other party is a precious treasure like incense and jade. If they are just worthless trash, then they should be disposed of in the same way as trash."

Jiang Youli nodded in agreement, saying, "That makes sense."

The champagne bottle remained undamaged despite being smashed.

It can still be used.

Cheng Jing stared expressionlessly at Qi Yu, whose face was contorted with extreme pain and tears streaming down his face. His eyes showed no pity, but rather cold indifference as he said, "Hmph, you can't even bear one blow? Don't forget, our young master took a hundred or so blows for you, you ungrateful wretch!"

After saying that, he raised the champagne bottle in his hand and smashed it down hard on Qi Yu's other knee again.

"what!"

Qi Yu let out another painful cry, her once beautiful face now almost completely contorted into a grimace.

Her tears flowed like a burst dam, mixed with snot and saliva, making her look extremely disheveled.

Qi Yu, using the last of his remaining strength, pleaded desperately, "Please...please let me go...I know I was wrong...Young Master Qi Huan..."

However, her pleas for mercy went unanswered, like stones sinking into the sea.

Standing to the side, Jiang Youli glanced casually at the handsome man beside her.

He remained indifferent, seemingly unconcerned about everything that was happening before him.

Jiang Youli then revealed a cruel smile and said, "That's more like it. Betrayal from close friends should be dealt with ruthlessly, far more so than from ordinary enemies. After all, it's their backstabbing that's most difficult to guard against!"

Qi Huan looked at Qi Yu with a hint of sadness in her eyes. "Yes, in the years I've been in the business world, I've been cautious and meticulous, without any mistakes. In the end, I almost fell because of my younger brother whom I care about the most and this adopted sister whom I've always treated like my own sister."

Their betrayal was like an incredibly sharp dagger, piercing straight into Qi Huan's heart, catching him completely off guard.

Although Qi Yu was not his biological sister, his care and love for her were no less than that for his younger brother, Qi Yue. During the three years she lived in the Qi family, no one dared to neglect or look down on her because of her status as an adopted daughter.

Unexpectedly, the very two people he had risked everything to protect and cherish were now determined to kill him.

Knowing that he was still somewhat troubled, Jiang Youli stood up, put her hand on his shoulder, and said softly, "Alright, leave Qi Yu to Assistant Cheng. I'll treat your legs."

Qi Huan looked away. "Okay."

no problem.

He now has a little girl named Xiaoli.

Even if he is betrayed by everyone, as long as Xiao Li'er stays firmly by his side, everything else seems to no longer matter to him.

Curled up on the ground, Qi Yu looked at Qi Huan helplessly and in terror, "...Qi Huan...Big brother, don't go...let me go..."

Unfortunately, all that remained for her was the sound of her wheelchair sliding and Qi Huan's already heartbroken back.

……

After pushing Qi Huan into the master bedroom, Jiang Youli closed the door, then walked up to Qi Huan, looked down at his handsome face, and comforted him:

“I know that although you always like to smile, whether you are angry or sad, you also feel confused at times.”

"It's okay. I'm just like you. I have vulnerable moments too, but I've always gotten through them."

"When we live for ourselves, we find that life is really interesting."

"From now on, I will live more for myself."

"Family, friendship, love... all of them have to come after you. Taking care of your own feelings is the most important thing!"

Qi Huan had been listening attentively to Jiang Youli until she said this, at which point he couldn't help but interrupt.

"At least I want to put you ahead of me in the list."

Jiang Youli was taken aback.

Qi Huan continued, "Perhaps I should say that in the future, I might not be able to help but put you ahead of me."

Jiang Youli chuckled after a while, "Little Huanhuan, you really know how to flirt."

She stood up. "Okay, I admit I'm charmed by you again."

Judging from Jiang Youli's brief relationship with Duan Jinghan, Qi Huan understands that Jiang Youli has never been a proactive person.

After all, her experiences constantly remind her to protect herself.

It's too difficult to expect her to take the initiative to love or care for someone.

But Qi Huan was willing to keep taking the initiative for her.

"Considering how good I am, shouldn't you..." Qi Huan paused here, her smiling eyes hinting at something.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Youli paused, her hand holding the needle case still. "Oh right, I almost forgot."

As she spoke, she bent down and gently kissed Qi Huan's cheek.

"You mean this?" Jiang Youli asked with a smile after stepping back.

Qi Huan's expression and breathing froze for a moment, only the highlight in her pupils lit up.

It took him a while to come to his senses. He looked up at Jiang Youli, his eyes filled with surprise and love.

"Why aren't you saying anything? Did I kiss you so hard you went crazy?" Jiang Youli couldn't help but tease him when she saw his expression.

Qi Huan smiled faintly and nodded, saying, "Hmm, maybe if you kiss me again, I'll not only be stupid, I'll go crazy."
