Chapter 1143: Someone Else Got There First

~7 min read 1,399 words

In fact, Qin Yiyan was not asleep.

He had just sensed that Liu Xin'ai was hesitating.

It was a good thing that this woman went to sleep obediently.

If she had not listened and continued to sit in front of the computer, then...

Qin Yiyan would have carried that woman to the bed!

And found some way to make her have to sleep!

Now that the method was not needed, Qin Yiyan...

Felt a bit disappointed again.

The next day—Qin Yiyan woke up and discovered that the spot beside him was empty.

The woman who should have been sleeping there had already vanished without a trace.

After walking downstairs, Qin Yiyan did not see Liu Xin'ai either.

There were only servants busy coming and going.

Qin Yiyan stopped one and asked, "Have you seen the Madam?"

"I have, the Madam left the house very early."

Left the house?

Qin Yiyan could not help but frown and asked, "Did the Madam say where she was going?"

"She did not, but the Madam's expression was a bit serious."

Serious...

It seemed the situation with the email reply was not optimistic.

Qin Yiyan made a judgment and began to consider a countermeasure.

Just at this moment...

Bai Yufei walked out of her room.

Seeing that Qin Yiyan was right downstairs, she immediately walked down quickly, grabbed Qin Yiyan's arm, and said with a smile, "Brother, good morning!"

Qin Yiyan revealed a hint of a smile: "Morning."

"Why are you standing over here?"

"It's nothing. When breakfast is ready in a moment, remember to eat well. I still have things to do, I will be going to the company later."

Hearing this, Bai Yufei shook Qin Yiyan's arm while requesting, "What are you busy with? Let me go with you, okay?"

Qin Yiyan did not agree.

He gently pushed away Bai Yufei's hand and said, "It's just a small matter."

"But..."

"Fei'er, be obedient!" Qin Yiyan unconsciously deepened his tone.

This made Bai Yufei have to give up her insistence and watch as Qin Yiyan walked quickly back to his room.

Once that figure disappeared, Bai Yufei asked the servant from just before: "What did my brother say to you?"

"Sir asked where the Madam was."

"Then what about Liu Xin'ai?"

"The Madam left the house first thing this morning."

This answer made Bai Yufei raise an eyebrow.

She looked back and saw Xiao'an's busy figure.

Whenever Liu Xin'ai went to the Laboratory, she would always take Xiao'an with her.

Now that Xiao'an was left at home, it meant...

Liu Xin'ai was not going to the Laboratory today!

But that woman was practically dying to treat the Laboratory as her home; what was wrong with these past two days?

And what did Qin Yiyan's dark face have to do with this?

Bai Yufei was curious about the answer.

But after thinking for a while, she still had no clue.

However, there was one thing Bai Yufei could confirm—there was conflict between Qin Yiyan and Liu Xin'ai again!

Bai Yufei was just hoping they would be at odds with each other.

Because only then could she sit back and reap the rewards!

The smile at the corners of Bai Yufei's mouth deepened, and she was in a great mood!

As for Qin Yiyan, he returned to his room and began calling Lin Ze.

He even had the other party book a flight for him.

Lin Ze was a bit surprised and asked, "Is this a suddenly arranged business trip?"

"

"No, I am going to visit an old friend myself; you do not need to follow."

"

"Understood."

"I will try my best to return before tonight; at the latest, it will be tomorrow morning."

This timing made Lin Ze somewhat surprised.

Considering the travel time, Lin Ze said, "Doing this, I am afraid it will be very exhausting for you."

"It doesn't matter, just do as I have arranged."

"Alright." Lin Ze responded, then hung up the phone.

Qin Yiyan began to pack the things he needed to take with him.

Qin Yiyan knew that Liu Tengnian's condition was critical.

Liu Xin'ai must be incredibly anxious as well.

Yet even in such a situation, Liu Xin'ai... had never thought to ask him for help!

She would rather run around like a headless chicken than ask him!

!!

This feeling of being ignored—is very bad!!!

Qin Yiyan no longer expected Liu Xin'ai to open her mouth and ask for help.

He decided to obtain the medicine directly.

Then, he would deliver it to Liu Xin'ai.

When that time comes...

That woman's expression will surely be very spectacular!

Qin Yiyan was very much looking forward to that scene!

However...

When Qin Yiyan went through all the trouble to deliver the medicine to the Hospital, Liu Xin'ai was not there.

The Doctor in charge of Liu Tengnian even said, "Someone has already delivered the medicine."

Qin Yiyan had been rushing back and forth for over a dozen hours.

He had been looking forward to helping Liu Xin'ai resolve her urgent need.

As a result...

He had been beaten to it by someone else?

Qin Yiyan's slightly weary brow furrowed, and he asked, "When was it delivered?"

"Only half an hour before you."

"Was it delivered by Liu Xin'ai?"

Mentioning this, the Doctor was also a bit confused: "No, the person in charge of the pharmaceutical factory contacted us proactively."

This result caused Qin Yiyan to fall silent.

When Liu Xin'ai was writing the email yesterday, Qin Yiyan had seen the recipient's information.

It was precisely the person in charge of the pharmaceutical factory.

If the other party had agreed to supply the medicine, Liu Xin'ai would not have left early that morning with such a serious expression.

So what kind of change occurred in between that rewrote the ending?

Qin Yiyan thought for a moment, then took out his phone and called a friend.

This friend was the very person Qin Yiyan had visited in person.

It was also he who had used his own connections to help Qin Yiyan find the medicine.

Now, Qin Yiyan needed this friend to help investigate the inside story.

This was not a difficult task.

The other party provided the result very quickly.

And the person who had secretly helped Liu Xin'ai was actually...

Jiang Chenghao!

The moment he got the result, the anger in Qin Yiyan's heart flared up instantly!

His wife, when encountering trouble, didn't think of letting him help, but instead turned around and told... her ex-boyfriend about it!?

This clearly meant she didn't hold him, her husband, in her eyes at all!!!

It was also a lack of trust in him!!!

The more Qin Yiyan thought about it, the angrier he became.

Finally, he took out his phone and, with a gloomy expression, called Liu Xin'ai.

When the call was answered, he asked in a deep voice, "Where are you?"

"I am on my way to the Hospital, I will be there in about half an hour!"

"That medicine..."

"About the medicine, I heard, it was you who sent it, right?"

Liu Xin'ai's words left Qin Yiyan stunned.

Because she could not see Qin Yiyan's expression, Liu Xin'ai on the other end of the line continued: "It's fortunate that you helped; this medicine was delivered so timely!"

"

Liu Xin'ai had exhausted all her options.

But the result? She had been stuck in the same place.

But just a short while ago, Liu Xin'ai received a call from the Doctor.

He said someone had delivered the medicine!

Liu Xin'ai was overjoyed and immediately rushed to the Hospital!

It was just that she was currently in the suburbs, and the journey took quite a bit of time.

As for Qin Yiyan on this end of the phone...

He listened carefully to Liu Xin'ai's voice, analyzing her tone.

And then he reached a conclusion: this woman was not lying; her gratitude and relief were all from the bottom of her heart!

But...

This was very strange.

Clearly, the person who had sent the medicine first was Jiang Chenghao, so why did Liu Xin'ai not know?

Could it be that things were not as he had anticipated?

Qin Yiyan speculated in his heart.

Liu Xin'ai asked in confusion: "You... why aren't you speaking? Is the signal on my end not very good?"

"It's very good, I can hear you."
