Chapter 160: If I find out it was Qin Yun Shu, I want one of her hands
"With that expression on your face, I haven't come down with some terminal illness, have I?" Lin Qingya joked, her gaze falling upon that piece of paper.
As she looked at it, her smile vanished.
Her left hand seemed to lose its strength as well, and the paper fluttered down onto the quilt.
She stared blankly at her right hand; that hand was injured.
But she hadn't expected it to be this serious.
"In the future, will I not even be able to hold a pen?"
Her voice was very soft, filled with despair.
Cheng Wan hugged her tightly, "It's okay, Qingya, you still have your left hand, and you can still use a tablet to assist you..."
She couldn't continue.
What Lin Qingya loved most was using a pen to draw.
Using the most primitive way of drawing, pondering and revising bit by bit until the design draft was complete.
That process was like sculpting; only when a work was filled with the traces of meticulous polishing was it most satisfying.
A comminuted fracture of the right hand was like a death sentence for Lin Qingya's design career.
No amount of auxiliary tools could replace the feeling of holding a pen.
Cheng Wan shed tears along with her, "Everything was fine, how could your hand end up like this? Who bullied you?"
"Was it Cheng Han?" Cheng Wan pressed.
Lin Qingya would never have done this to her own hand, would she?
"Wanwan, I want to be quiet for a while, okay?" Lin Qingya broke free from Cheng Wan's embrace, her eyes filled with gray.
Cheng Wan hesitated, then agreed.
She left the hospital room, and behind her were Lin Qingya's stifled, painful sobs.
Cheng Wan leaned against the wall, and she suddenly thought, today at Qin Yun Shu's wedding, was it because Lin Qingya's right hand couldn't exert any strength... that the wrist-slitting wasn't deep?
If her hand had been intact, would she have really severed her blood vessels...
Cheng Wan didn't dare to keep thinking.
Only when the sobbing in the room quieted down did she go back in.
Lin Qingya had already folded the paper and put it away; she wiped her tears, pretending to be strong.
"I'm fine."
She said it lightly, but it only made one's heart ache more.
"I'm going to find Cheng Han." Cheng Wan patted her friend's shoulder, her face frosty, "I want to ask him how he could be so heartless as to turn your hand into this."
"Wanwan, don't go." Lin Qingya stopped her, "It wasn't him."
Cheng Wan frowned; if it wasn't Cheng Han, then who could it be?
Lin Qingya remained silent.
Cheng Wan, however, thought of that person, "Is it Qin Yun Shu?"
Aside from Cheng Han, the only other person who could hate Lin Qingya to that extent was Qin Yun Shu.
"It's her, isn't it? That's why you grabbed the tweezers and hurt her."
Cheng Wan gradually began to understand.
It was Qin Yun Shu.
She was Cheng Han's wife and had the help of Chu Li; it wouldn't be difficult for her to find Lin Qingya's whereabouts.
It was she who had ruined Lin Qingya's hand.
A massive rage filled her chest; Cheng Wan turned around in anger, wanting to go find Qin Yun Shu.
Lin Qingya grabbed her, "Wanwan, don't go, there's no evidence."
When those people ruined her hand, they only said she had offended someone she shouldn't have; they didn't mention Qin Yun Shu.
She had no evidence.
If Cheng Wan went like this, she would only come into conflict with Qin Yun Shu, and Chu Li would inevitably protect Qin Yun Shu; what would Cheng Wan do then?
Lin Qingya endured the pain, forbidding Cheng Wan from going to find Qin Yun Shu.
Cheng Wan bit the tip of her tongue and agreed.
Once Lin Qingya fell asleep, her expression suddenly turned icy, and she went to Qin Yun Shu's hospital room.
Her heart was full of rage, and she couldn't hold back even a little.
She pushed the door open with force and strode inside.
Qin Yun Shu frowned: "What are you here for?"
Cheng Wan didn't speak; she grabbed a pillow and smashed it fiercely against her face.
Using all her strength.
Qin Yun Shu was stunned for a moment, then reacted: "Cheng Wan, are you crazy?"
Qin Yun Shu couldn't take it anymore and pushed out with force.
Cheng Wan fell backward, and just as she was about to hit the floor, she was caught firmly by someone.
She looked up and saw Chu Li.
Chu Li's icy gaze swept over Qin Yun Shu.
Qin Yun Shu was a bit intimidated and pointed at Cheng Wan, saying: "She was the one who started it, I was just... I didn't mean to push her."
Qin Yun Shu knew how much Chu Li treasured Cheng Wan, which was why she had endured it at first, but Cheng Wan was becoming more and more excessive.
She had the air of someone who wanted to beat her to death.
Chu Li pulled the pillow out of Cheng Wan's hand and threw it to the side, "Wanwan."
He had heard from the servants at home that Cheng Wan had come here, so he wanted to pick her up and go back together; he went to Lin Qingya's place, but Cheng Wan wasn't there, and then he heard a nurse say someone was being beaten here, which was why he had rushed over.
Fortunately, he arrived in time.
Cheng Wan stared at Chu Li without blinking, her tone very cold.
"She ruined Qingya's hand."
Qin Yun Shu shrank her neck, feeling a bit guilty, but only a little; after all, they had no evidence.
She spoke aggrievedly, "Cheng Wan, do you have any evidence?"
Cheng Wan said bitterly, "Who else could it be but you?"
Only Qin Yun Shu could do such a thing.
"Who knows who she offended." Qin Yun Shu curled her lip; as long as she didn't admit it, it would be fine.
"You..."
"Wanwan, that's enough." Chu Li pulled Cheng Wan into his arms, "Do you know you almost fell just now?"
Cheng Wan sneered and pushed Chu Li away, "So this time, you are going to shield her again, is that it?"
Chu Li frowned, "What happened to Lin Qingya's hand?"
Cheng Wan felt a pain in her heart, "A comminuted fracture of the right hand... she will never be able to hold a pen again."
Her eye sockets were red, "It was Qin Yun Shu who did it."
Chu Li caught her wrist to make her calm down, soothing her.
"Wanwan, I will arrange for the best doctor to examine her, don't be anxious."
"And what about Qin Yun Shu?" Cheng Wan pressed.
Chu Li was silent for two seconds before saying, "Evidence is needed, I will investigate."
Cheng Wan had already calmed down; she knew very well that with Chu Li here, she could not touch Qin Yun Shu again.
Moreover, that kind of chaotic beating was not even worth mentioning compared to the injury Lin Qingya had suffered.
"If it is found to be Qin Yun Shu, I want one of her hands."
Qin Yun Shu bit her lip and looked at Chu Li pitifully.
That was her brother; he would protect her.
Yet Chu Li agreed.
"Fine."
Qin Yun Shu's face turned pale; she stared at her half-brother in disbelief.
He actually just agreed like that?
Cheng Wan's clenched palms finally loosened, and she scoffed, "I hope you keep your word."
She slammed the door and left.
Qin Yun Shu let out a breath, "Brother, Cheng Wan can't blame everything on me."
"Was it really not you?" Chu Li left behind only this sentence and followed her out.
It was a question.
It was more like an interrogation.
Qin Yun Shu bit her lip hard; she sensed it from Chu Li's attitude.
Chu Li did not believe her.
He was now standing on Cheng Wan's side.
If the time came when Cheng Wan really wanted one of her hands, he would agree to it too.
The more she thought about it, the more terrified and hateful Qin Yun Shu became.
By what right did Cheng Wan steal Chu Li's favoritism?
She was Chu Li's own sister, the young lady of the Chu family; what qualification did Cheng Wan have to interrogate her and demand she take responsibility?
Cheng Wan was merely relying on the child in her belly...
Qin Yun Shu pinched her own palms fiercely.
