Chapter 109 The Truth About Being Admitted to a Mental Hospital
Cheng Ai bent down and put the sunglasses on Liao Yunqing's face, covering his bruised right eye. "Secondly, I don't know your sister, and whether she returns to the country or not is none of my business!"
She slowly brought her lips close to his ear, smiling innocently, "Third, you're wrong, terribly wrong. Ye Jingke would never beat me because he simply can't beat me!"
With that, she turned gracefully, walked to the door to unlock it, and turned back to threaten coldly, "Lu Hanmo is of noble status, and I guess you are too. Mr. Liao, taking off your clothes and unbuttoning your shirt in the bathroom just to get the attention of a little illegitimate daughter, what will happen if word gets out?"
Rewinding to twenty minutes earlier, Ye Jingke had been paying attention to Cheng Ai and naturally saw her interaction with Liao Yunqing.
He was secretly delighted. The two had been at odds since they first met, so the fact that they could strike up a conversation meant that their relationship had improved.
Before long, Ye Jingke realized he had been worrying too much, because he saw the two of them get up and walk into the restroom one after the other.
During this time, Liao Yunqing gestured in various ways, and he understood that the other party wanted him to follow. The little girl with the angry expression had only taken Zhong Zheyi's sunglasses from beginning to end, without even giving him a second glance.
Ye Jingke didn't want to pay attention, but driven by curiosity, he inexplicably followed.
When he heard Liao Yunqing provoke and anger Cheng Ai with his words, he almost rushed in to beat him up.
Before anything could be done, the sounds of a man crying out in pain, falling down, and a girl's emotionless voice correcting him could be heard from inside.
He didn't stop it; Liao Yunqing had only himself to blame for this, and no one else was to blame.
After Cheng Ai finished venting her anger, Ye Jingke grabbed her arm, trying to argue—no, to explain.
However, she didn't give him a chance to speak at all. She simply shook him off, said, "I have set up a barrier here," and left.
Ye Jingke did not act immediately, but stood still and waited, giving Liao Yunqing time to tidy up her appearance.
He understood what Cheng Ai meant; some things should indeed be made clear in advance to avoid turning into enemies later.
Ten minutes later, Liao Yunqing finally showed up. His clothes and shirt were already buttoned up, and he looked like a gentleman.
But the sight of him clutching his chest with one hand and holding onto the door frame with the other, wearing sunglasses and grinning, was truly hilarious.
Ye Jingke pushed him back into the bathroom, then stood at the door with a teasing smile, "I told you a long time ago that Ai Ai has a bad temper, but you wouldn't believe me. Now you're paying the price, aren't you?"
Liao Yunqing gritted his teeth and angrily questioned, "I'm your second brother! How could you not stop her from being so willful and reckless?"
Ye Jingke glanced at him, his words carrying a hidden meaning, "If you keep causing trouble for her, we probably won't even be able to remain brothers in the end."
Liao Yunqing was taken aback, her eyes widening suddenly behind her sunglasses. "Wh-what do you mean?"
"Sigh!" Ye Jingke sighed softly and said in a deep voice, "You can't force feelings. Yunyan is very nice, but I don't like her. In my eyes, she's no different from the other women you prepared for me before. I have absolutely no interest in her."
His tone softened, but his words were clear: "For the past two years, you've been creating opportunities to bring me and Yunyan together. Ask yourself honestly, when have I ever stayed longer than five minutes?"
Cheng Ai was wiping her hands with a wet wipe. Ye Jingke looked over everyone, a hint of tenderness in his eyes, but his words were as cold as ice. "Ai Ai has been merciful enough to tolerate you for so long. If you continue to be ungrateful and push your luck, and wantonly provoke her, all I can do is light a few more incense sticks at your funeral."
Liao Yunqing was shocked, his face showing panic. Every time he helped his sister arrange a meeting with Ye Jingke, he was extremely careful and discreet, but he never expected to be discovered!
Taking a deep breath, he tried to salvage the situation, "You and Yunyan haven't even tried, how do you know it won't work? She's understanding, gentle, and virtuous, is she really inferior to a Cheng family illegitimate daughter?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Jingke laughed, a particularly sarcastic laugh, and couldn't help but retort, "Understanding? Gentle and virtuous?"
Liao Yunqing nodded vigorously; he was well aware of his younger sister's strengths.
Ye Jingke's eyes were dark and gloomy, and his words were mocking, "Liao Yunyan knows what I'm thinking. If she were truly understanding, she wouldn't have sent you to keep an eye on me. If she were truly gentle and virtuous, she wouldn't have hired online trolls to deliberately attack Ai Ai."
"Huh?" Liao Yunqing paused, her expression changing several times, but she still forced herself to stay calm. "I didn't follow you, and it's normal for celebrities to have haters. Don't make baseless accusations!"
Ye Jingke leaned against the wall and smiled, "You just flew back from Shuihuan City before coming to the castle, right? If I hadn't been held up by something, I would definitely have gone there too."
He took out his phone, showed several screenshots, and slowly said, "In the live stream, I saw a group of people relentlessly attacking Ai Ai. Their words and tone were basically the same. After hacking into the Zou Group, I tried to lock their IP addresses and trace them. I eventually found that they were all at the university where Liao Yunyan was studying."
Ye Jingke originally intended to discuss these matters after returning to Huichuan City, but plans can't keep up with changes, so he had to bring them up in advance.
Before Liao Yunqing could even process what was happening, she heard another chilling piece of news.
"Three weeks ago, I was able to be sent to a mental hospital by Su Qi thanks to your sister."
He looked up abruptly, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Ye Jingke put his phone back in his pocket and explained slowly, "That night, Liao Yunyan suddenly called and kept crying, saying that she had been kidnapped. You and my brother were out of town and couldn't come back in time, so I called my assistant and bodyguards and rushed over. On the way, we were attacked by assassins repeatedly. When we found Su Qi, everyone except me and Bai Jing was dead."
Liao Yunyan was tied to the top of a vat of boiling oil with a rope, begging me to save her. I gestured for her to be quiet, but she wouldn't cooperate, crying and screaming. After all, she's my sister; I can't just ignore her. Su Qi loosened the rope three times in a row. I had no choice but to take a gamble.
Just then, a bald, pot-bellied man rushed in. Ye Jingke immediately fell silent and stepped aside, while Liao Yunqing looked somewhat nervous.
There are two living, breathing people standing here. Even if he couldn't hold it in any longer, he should at least smile and apologize, right?
Ugh! Ye Jingke is so unreliable. How could he not even lock the door when discussing such an important matter?
Learn from Cheng Ai; she did thorough preparation before beating someone up.
Seeing the other person urinate and wash their hands as if nothing had happened, Liao Yunqing was puzzled. It wasn't until the restroom returned to calm that she gradually came to her senses.
Ye Jingke glanced at him and continued the original topic, "Bai Jing and I were no match for the four of us and were captured alive. We were blindfolded and put into a car. Liao Yunyan was also doomed, but the police happened to arrive just as Zhang Qi made his move and rescued her. Fortunately, Bai Jing is my chief assistant and still has some use. He pretended to surrender and that's how he managed to survive."
