Li Qingcang started the engine. The morning light shone on his face, highlighting his stunning features.
Ye Tianxin tried to cheer herself up. She didn’t want Wu Tong’s words to get into her.
‘You can do it, Ye Tianxin! Work hard and charge forward. Ome day, you’ll be able to catch up with him, be outstanding like him.’
“Elder Brother Li, where are we?”
Ye Tianxin and Li Qingcang got out of the car. There was a two-story house in front of them. The house was painted white and had French architecture.
In front of the house was a large grass field and beyond it was a pond.
The morning light struck the pond, so it shimmered in the distance.
Swans played leisurely on the pond, and flowers bloomed beautifully around it.
Ye Tianxin had a vague sense that this house might be…
“My elder sister gave me this house for my 18th birthday. I am giving it to you now.”
Ye Tianxin shook her head. She could not accept this.
What kind of person would she be if she accepted this gift from Li Qingcang?
“Elder Brother Li, this is your sister’s birthday present to you. I can’t accept it.” Ye Tianxin was worried that if she rejected Li Qingcang’s gesture, it might hurt his pride. So she continued, “Look, this house looks great, but it isn’t that convenient to live in. I already planned things out last night. I will live with Grandmother in the house that Mother Du Juan had given me. That house is near the market, the square, and the hospital. It is very convenient to live there.”
Li Qingcang was a little upset.
Why did Tianxin accept Du Juan’s house but not his?
“Tianxin, this is my present for you.”
Ye Tianxin smiled, then spoke gently, “Elder Brother Li, you have already given me a birthday present. Keep this present for now. How about you give it to me when I turn 20?”
Li Qingcang hesitated for a moment and was silent for a while. His expression was cold, and his lips were pursed.
He reached out and patted Ye Tianxin’s head, and sighed.
He had not been considerate enough last night, and his little Tianxin had suffered.
“Alright then. Leave this with me for now. I shall give it to you in the future.”
“Elder Brother, you are a nice person.”
Ye Tianxin beamed. Li Qingcang was really a good person.
“How about we go in and take a look?”
“Let’s not. I want to be surprised when the time comes for me to claim it.”
Ye Tianxin tugged Li Qingcang’s hand and dragged him into the car.
Li Qingcang smiled helplessly and said, “Then let’s go to the hospital after breakfast.”
“Alright.”
The two had some soy milk and fried fritters at a small café.
After breakfast, Ye Tianxin and Li Qingcang went to the hospital.
“Tianxin, wait here for me for a bit. I am going to go visit a friend.”
“Alright.”
Li Qingcang went to the internal medicine department and went to see his friend who was an internist, Qie Wenyang. “Yang, are you busy right now?”
Qie Wenyang handed the file in his hands to a nurse and led Li Qingcang to his office. He asked, “Boss, why have you come to the hospital?”
“Something seems to be wrong with my heart recently,” Li Qingcang shared somberly.
Qie Wenyang hurriedly used his stethoscope to check Li Qingcang’s heartbeat when he heard that. He listened silently for a while with a serious expression.
“When did this start?”
Li Qingcang thought back to when he noticed that something’s wrong with his heart.
It beat fast sometimes.
And it skipped sometimes.
It seemed to have started after he had gotten injured last time.
“Something went wrong with my heart after I got injured the last time. Yang, do you think there is a problem with my heart?”
