Chapter 1832: My brother still cares about you

~7 min read 1,317 words

"So that's what you were referring to. In that case, you can rest easy; I have already left the company."

"But the paperwork hasn't been finalized yet, has it?"

This time, Xie Wanyi did not speak.

After a moment, he asked, "How did you know?"

"Don't worry about how I know, I just do! I also know that they will definitely use this point to make you a scapegoat!"

Xie Wanyi smiled and said, "You certainly know quite a bit, but I will handle these trivial matters."

"If you need a lawyer, you can come to me. Our Li Family's legal team is absolutely the king in this field! They handle commercial disputes with ease!"

Li Xingyan was stating a fact.

In the business world, anyone who ran into this legal team would truly feel like crying.

However, given Li Xingyan's personality, he wouldn't usually introduce so much.

At most, he would mention it once, and then it would be up to you whether to use them or not.

This current bout of boasting sounded as if he were worried... that Xie Wanyi would refuse.

Xie Wanyi was also somewhat surprised.

But his expression didn't change; he just said calmly, "If there is a need, I will come to you."

"Then you must not stand on ceremony with me. We spend a sky-high price every year to maintain this team; helping you out is nothing!"

Li Xingyan's behavior once again made Xie Wanyi feel surprised.

And this time, there was a bit more warmth on Xie Wanyi's face as he said, "Thank you."

His "thank you" was very sincere.

Yet it made Li Xingyan feel uncomfortable.

He still stubbornly explained, "I'm not concerned about you; I'm doing this for my sister. If you hurry up and deal with this messy business, she won't have to worry."

Li Xingyan was just being tough on the outside but soft on the inside.

Could Xie Wanyi not

see that?

But he didn't expose it either, just curling his lips as he said, "I understand, but a lawyer won't be useful for this matter; I need to use another method."

Another method?

These simple words made Li Xingyan realize that Xie Wanyi had other plans.

He was just about to ask when he heard the sound of a sneeze coming from the corner.

This sound made both men turn around in unison.

And they stared sharply at that corner.

After two or three seconds, someone walked out from the corner.

It was none other than the slightly pale-faced Jiang Motian.

She gave the two of them an awkward smile and then said, "I... was just passing by."

Such a lame excuse was truly beyond words.

But looking at Jiang Motian's weak appearance and her guilty little expression...

How could the two men bear to criticize her?

Xie Wanyi took off his own coat and draped it over Jiang Motian's shoulders.

Then he chided, "You didn't even put on a coat while eavesdropping."

"I didn't have time," Jiang Motian said, then immediately corrected herself, "I wasn't eavesdropping."

"Mm, this is our fault. We were talking too loudly and attracted you over."

"That's right!"

Jiang Motian's voice was also quite loud.

But that was just her feeling guilty!

Moreover...

Jiang Motian looked at Xie Wanyi and asked with some unease, "Will what you're about to do be very dangerous?"

Xie Wanyi patted Jiang Motian's head and replied, "It's just a battle of wits; there won't be any danger. If they insist on dragging me down with them, then I will make them all suffer together."

The tone of Xie Wanyi's voice was very gentle.

Yet Jiang Motian heard it and felt her heart jump with fear.

At the same time, she imagined scene after scene of conspiracies and schemes...

Li Xingyan saw that Jiang Motian was letting her imagination run wild, so he patted her head.

Then

he said, "Stop worrying so much. With me helping, I definitely won't let anyone bully Xie Wanyi."

Li Xingyan's promise made Jiang Motian somewhat surprised.

It was also very heartwarming.

She tilted her head up and said with a smile, "Then you must keep your word!"

Li Xingyan gave an "mm" and started complaining again: "This boyfriend you've picked out is really quite a handful!"

"It's other people looking for trouble with Wanyi; what does that have to do with him? Our Wanyi is quite good."

"You, you're just seeing beauty through the eyes of a lover!"

After Li Xingyan finished speaking, he instructed Xie Wanyi again: "Speak up if you need anything."

"Okay."

"Don't stand on ceremony with me."

"Understood."

Li Xingyan still wanted to say something else.

But the two people opposite him, with those smiling eyes...

Li Xingyan changed his mind and left, feigning cold arrogance.

Jiang Motian looked at her brother's back, then whispered to Xie Wanyi, "My brother still cares about you a lot."

"I can feel it."

"Being so insincere is very likely to make you suffer."

"It's a good thing you're not like him; you have a sweet mouth."

As Xie Wanyi said this, he hooked Jiang Motian's chin.

Following this movement, Jiang Motian lifted her head.

She had intended to show Xie Wanyi a smile to demonstrate just how sweet she was.

But with her head swaying like that...

Jiang Motian's body uncontrollably leaned backward!

Xie Wanyi hurriedly caught her waist and asked nervously, "What's wrong with you?"

"... Dizzy."

Xie Wanyi said nothing else, leaned over to pick Jiang Motian up, and sent her back to her room.

Because she was still ill, Jiang Motian did not have much energy to chat with Xie Wanyi.

After taking her medicine, Jiang Motian drifted off into a groggy sleep.

Jiang Motian would occasionally open her eyes,

and she would see Xie Wanyi sitting by her side.

This made her feel so at ease.

Even while ill, the corners of her mouth were curled upward.

However, when Jiang Motian wasn't looking, Xie Wanyi's expression was very grave.

Leaving the Li Family, Xie Wanyi went to the Hospital.

The doctor had previously communicated with Xie Wanyi, saying that Ling Yu had recently... not been very obedient.

Nothing they said worked.

Therefore, they hoped Xie Wanyi could come and persuade him.

It just so happened that Xie Wanyi had some time today, so he paid a sudden visit without even giving notice.

The moment he pushed the door open, Xie Wanyi saw a figure flash by.

That person's movements were very fast.

The act of hiding things was even faster.

Unfortunately, no matter how well he hid it, he couldn't hide the smell...

Xie Wanyi crossed his arms and asked helplessly, "Drinking? Eating roast chicken? Are you tired of living?"

Having his good deed interrupted, Ling Yu was extremely annoyed!

At this point, there was no way to cover it up anymore.

Ling Yu simply gave up and threw caution to the wind: "You don't know how terrible the nutritional meals are; I feel like my taste buds have lost their function!"

"Yes, your taste buds have suffered. How about this: I'll take you out for a big feast, we'll arrange for smoking, drinking, and spicy food, and then this time next year, I'll go to your grave and offer you a bouquet of flowers!"

"Oh, that's an exaggeration!"

"Whether it's an exaggeration or not, you'll know if you try."

As Xie Wanyi spoke, he narrowed his eyes slightly.

The intimidation was at full capacity!

And Ling Yu, being intimidated, cowered and clamored, "Alright, alright, I won't sneak food anymore."

"Now, throw the things into the trash can."

"No, I already said I wouldn't eat it, is it necessary to guard against me like a thief?!"

"Of course it is; your behavior of sneaking food is famous throughout the Hospital."

"Ah? Are they so

idle that they even spread news of this kind!"
