Chapter 1614: Chapter 1614: I Don’t Want You to Get Hurt
Early in the morning, I didn’t even dare to look at the news.
Afraid that I might see sothing related to myself in the footage.
Just as I had adjusted my mood and was about to start the car, the phone rang.
Seeing the caller ID, Ye Mingi froze for a mont before reaching out to answer.
“You didn’t co to the office today. Is sothing up?” Qin Youxuan’s voice was soft, devoid of any extra emotion.
“I overslept. I’m just about to head over now. I’m sorry.” Ye Mingi hadn’t expected her tardiness to reach Qin Youxuan’s ears so quickly and apologized sincerely.
“You were supposed to have a day off today. I’m not calling you out for being late. I just wanted to talk to you about sothing. You said you’d co to the office, but I didn’t see you there, so I gave you a call.”
Qin Youxuan paused for a mont before speaking again, “I’ll wait for you at the coffee shop across from the office. Co by as soon as you can.”
“Alright, I got it.”
Ye Mingi hung up the phone, frowning slightly.
She couldn’t figure out why Qin Youxuan was suddenly looking for her, but nonetheless, she started the car and drove to the agreed location.
…
“One coffee, one hot cocoa,” Qin Youxuan closed the nu and handed it to the server.
“Alright, please wait a mont.” The server took the order slip and quickly turned away.
Qin Youxuan sat near the window, gazing at the bustling traffic outside.
Her eyes fell on the bag beside her, and her expression turned slightly somber.
“Over here.”
Ye Mingi arrived quickly. The mont she entered, she saw Qin Youxuan waving at her. She smiled faintly and hurried over.
“I heard from Ru that you haven’t been sleeping well lately. I ordered hot cocoa for you instead of coffee,” Qin Youxuan said with a smile, pushing the freshly served hot cocoa toward Ye Mingi.
Ye Mingi blinked, her eyes welling up slightly as she looked at the steaming hot cocoa in front of her.
She glanced at Qin Youxuan, a little surprised.
“I called you here today because I wanted to give this to you.”
Qin Youxuan handed the bag on the seat to Ye Mingi.
“These have always been with Dan Hanjie. He didn’t keep any copies; everything is in here. I originally planned to destroy it, but I later felt it was better for you to handle it yourself.”
“…”
When Ye Mingi saw what was in the bag, her body jolted, and she looked at Qin Youxuan in astonishnt.
“You seem surprised. What’s wrong?” Qin Youxuan asked, her tone filled with concern.
“I’m just so happy. I didn’t think I’d be able to get everything back so smoothly. Thank you,” Ye Mingi said gratefully, looking at Qin Youxuan.
“My father is no longer here, and I don’t have any other family. Ru has been very good to , and I don’t want her to worry about you all the ti. I’m just doing what I should. You’re a part of the Ye Family too. I don’t want you to get hurt.”
Qin Youxuan picked up her coffee and took a light sip.
Her bright cat-like eyes glead sharply as she looked at Ye Mingi, whose expression had turned sowhat unsettled.
Casually, she brought up, “By the way, did you see the news today? Mr. Jiang Jinchen’s clubhouse has been shut down. I heard it’s because a large amount of drugs was being circulated there. It’s causing quite a stir right now.”
“Bang—”
Ye Mingi’s hand trembled, knocking over her cup. The hot cocoa spilled all over the table.
“Careful!” Qin Youxuan imdiately stood up, pulling the dazed Ye Mingi and helping her away from the seat.
“How could you be so careless? What if you got burned?” Qin Youxuan scolded softly, raising her hand to signal for the server to co over and clean up.
