Chapter 1223: I Still Love You, But It Has Nothing To Do With You 2

"No need, just say it here. There is nothing I have to say to you that cannot be heard by others." Shi Ran's insistent attitude made Qi Heng's heart sink to the bottom.

"Alright, let's say it here."

He no longer insisted, because he understood Shi Ran, just as she understood him.

At a time like this, one should not go head-to-head with her; it was absolutely impossible for her to change her mind.

Most capable people do not easily change their own minds.

"Ranran, although Liu Quan is dead, you must still be careful recently. He still has quite a few loyal followers under him, and I fear they will not let you go."

Shi Ran sneered: "Take care of yourself; I don't need you to worry about me."

Qi Heng:...

"Mm, I know the safety coefficient in Jiangzhou is high, but you still need to pay attention to safety, you must pay attention to safety." After saying this, he went silent.

In truth, he still had many things to say, but with over a dozen eyes staring at the two of them, he truly could not say them.

"Thank you, goodbye."

Shi Ran thanked him politely, then turned to go back, and "Bang!" shut the door.

Yun Qitian spread his hands, his face full of innocence: "Look, I told you and you didn't believe me, do you believe me now? Ranran truly does not want to see you; it is not that I am standing in your way."

He went back in and also "Bang!" shut the door heavily.

Having been rejected by Shi Ran so obviously, there was no point in staying any longer.

When Qi Heng arrived, he had come leaning on a crutch, but he had no strength left at all to prepare to go back.

"Go find a wheelchair and push me back."

Not long after Qi Heng returned to the Hospital Ward, he took the initiative to request a transfer to the most famous public hospital in Jiangzhou.

Originally, his status made it unsuitable for him to stay here.

It was only because he requested it himself that the people from the relevant departments had reluctantly agreed.

Now that Qi Heng was actively requesting a transfer, it was handled immediately!

Ji Family.

Zhu Qingrui sat in a large executive chair, holding a copy of the Global Times in his hands, his eyes fixed on the front-page headline for half an hour without turning the page.

The massive headline was very eye-catching: L Country rebel leader Liu Quan dies after falling to his death while failing to assassinate the President in Jiangzhou.

The content below was also basically written around the relationship between Liu Quan and Qi Heng; it didn't mention a single word about the Treasure, nor did it mention him at all!

Although it wasn't mentioned, he dared not lower his guard.

Others might not know, but the couple Shi Youxuan and Sheng Hanyu certainly knew what was going on.

Now that the grass had been beaten and the snake startled, it would be even harder to do anything in the future!

Liu Quan was dead, and Zhu Qingrui was both happy and worried.

What he was happy about was that his subordinates and influence could now all be used by him.

He happened to be short of people, and these men were brave and loyal; it was undoubtedly like adding wings to a tiger. Furthermore, that tigress Liu Min could also be eliminated, so as not to be an eyesore.

What he was worried about was that the Ji Family and the Sheng Family were now full of precautions against him, and since they had recovered, there would soon be a fierce battle between the two sides.

Before, he was in the shadows and did not fear them.

But now he was in the light, and no one could say what the final result of the struggle between the two sides would be.

"Someone come." A vicious plan formed in Zhu Qingrui's mind.

The butler entered: "Young Master, what are your orders?"

"Send this to the Young Mistress." He handed the newspaper to the butler.

The butler agreed and went down; soon, hysterical wailing from Liu Min could be heard throughout the palace.

He listened quietly, and for the first time, he felt it wasn't noisy; this sound was truly pleasant.

Soon.

"Bang!"

The door was heavily slammed open, and Liu Min rushed in carrying a gun, saying to her husband: "Give me the key to the armory; I want to go avenge my father."

"The key can be given to you, but how do you intend to take revenge?"

Zhu Qingrui asked: "Are you just going to rush to Jiangzhou carrying a gun like you are now? I'm afraid you wouldn't even be able to enter Jiangzhou, would you?"

Liu Min cried.

"Clatter!"

The heavy gun was thrown to the ground, and she squatted down and sobbed "woo-woo," crying very sorrowfully.

"What should I do? Qingrui, please teach me what I should do? My father died at the hands of Qi Heng; I want to seek revenge on him. I must kill him with my own hands so that my father can rest in peace in the netherworld... woo-woo-woo-woo..."

Seeing that Liu Min was taking the bait, he began to guide her step by step.

He used his silver tongue and high intelligence to brainwash Liu Min.

Zhu Qingrui told her not to be impulsive, because it had no meaning.

Revenge must be taken, but it depends on how one takes it.

Being impulsive and hot-tempered would not achieve revenge; it would only intensify the conflict and make the things one wanted to do a complete mess.

To achieve one's goal, one must understand strategy; one must have a meticulous plan before starting to act!

Although Liu Min was anxious for revenge, she also admitted that what Zhu Qingrui said made sense.

However, what he said was too profound, and she still couldn't understand many of his words.

"Just tell me what I should do, I will listen to you."

Jiangzhou.

The Sheng Family.

Wang Yong sent a message; he finally discovered the Island where Shi Yucheng and the two children are being held, discovered inadvertently by a fisherman.

He is preparing to organize a rescue team, and both Nianyin and Ji Yingjie want to go.

Shi Youxuan opposed it: "No, I agree to Nianyin going, but you are not allowed to go; you just stay here and wait for news."

Ji Yingjie was so angry she slapped the table: "Ji Youxuan, you are too outrageous! You are becoming more and more disrespectful; how dare you try to boss me around?"

Shi Youxuan: "You had better get the situation straight; this is my territory, so of course I have the final say..."

Whenever the two of them argued, others would automatically keep their distance.

Every argument would last at least an hour, and others had already gained experience from it.

This time was the same; the aunt and niece argued until their faces were red, and the final result remained the same—Ji Yingjie was furious but it was useless; on the Sheng Family's territory, Shi Youxuan was in charge.

Nianyin set off to save the people.

Ji Yingjie was left behind, left behind to wait for news.

Fortunately, at this time Shi Ran was discharged from the hospital and returned home to recuperate, which diverted much of Ji Yingjie's attention and kept her from being idle and causing trouble.

"Ranran, what stage have you and Qi Tian reached?"

Shi Ran:...

She glanced at her great-aunt and did not respond.

How idle could this woman be?

To be so meddlesome and ask about everything.

"Speak up! You two spent so much time together day and night in the hospital; who would believe it if you said no sparks of love were struck? But that boy Qi Tian is truly excellent; I think he's quite good..."

If Shi Ran continued to not respond, she would just keep on nagging endlessly.

"You don't need to worry about me; I don't want to talk about relationships for the time being."

"Why don't you want to talk about it? Are you still thinking about that thing? You usually seem very smart, so why are you so foolish? Even more foolish than your mother..."

Whatever Ji Yingjie did, she was always crisp and efficient, able to pick things up and put them down, and relationships were the same.

To her, if it works, it works; if it doesn't, it doesn't.

Once a relationship ended, she would immediately start the next one; why would anyone need a window period?

Youth is precious; don't waste a single bit of it.

To leave a handsome guy like Yun Qitian and not want him—if the handsome guy gets snatched away by someone else, it would be too late to even cry.

But Shi Ran did not appreciate her "good intentions."

She said impatiently: "Alright, alright, please stop nagging me; can you just let me stay by myself in peace for a while?"
