Then just wait.

Li Wei turned his head.

Qin Bing was standing behind him.

Her expression was frighteningly cold.

Just now, she simply couldn't bear to see her mother in that state, so she had gone out for some air.

She hadn't expected to return and hear that Li Wei actually wanted to treat her mother.

What did he say yesterday?!

He said he learned how to apply bandages by watching videos.

And today, he actually dared to try and treat her mother.

How could someone in this world be so arrogant?

"What do you think you're doing?"

Li Wei lowered his hand.

"Isn't it obvious? I'm trying to save someone."

Qin Bing sneered.

"Save someone?"

She took a step closer.

"Do you know anything about medicine?"

Li Wei nodded and frowned.

"A little."

Qin Bing stared at him.

"A little? Let me guess, you learned it from watching videos too?"

She paused.

"Then do you have a medical license?"

Li Wei quickly shook his head.

Qin Bing continued.

"Then on what grounds do you think you can treat my mom?"

Li Wei was getting a bit annoyed by the questioning.

"On the grounds that I can save your mother."

Qin Bing sneered.

"Save my mother?"

She pointed at the woman on the hospital bed.

"Even the doctors say there's no hope. What makes you think you can save her?"

Li Wei didn't answer; he couldn't exactly say he had a system.

Qin Bing continued.

"I've looked into your background."

She paused.

"Li Wei, 28 years old. Half a month ago, you were just an unemployed corporate slave."

She stared at Li Wei.

"Suddenly, you're rich—driving luxury cars, living in a mansion, and investing in a Studio."

She paused.

"Where did your money come from?"

Li Wei looked at the dead-serious Qin Bing and smiled.

"Does that have anything to do with saving your mom?"

Qin Bing said coldly,

"Of course it does."

She paused.

"If you can't explain it, then I naturally have reason to suspect you're a fraud."

Li Wei raised an eyebrow.

"A fraud?"

Qin Bing nodded.

"Yes, the kind that specializes in swindling women out of their money."

She paused.

"First it was Sister Yun, then Yang Weiwei, and now you've set your sights on my sister."

Li Wei leaned against the wall.

"You're overthinking things."

Qin Bing sneered.

"Overthinking?"

She paused.

"Then explain why you wanted to invest in my sister's Studio?"

Li Wei thought for a moment.

"I told you, it's because I believe in her designs."

Qin Bing stared at him.

"It's that simple?"

Li Wei nodded.

"It's that simple."

Qin Bing sneered and fell silent.

Her eyes were full of suspicion.

Qin Xue walked over at that moment.

"Xiao Bing, don't be like that."

She took Qin Bing's hand.

"President Li truly wants to help us."

Qin Bing turned her head.

"Sister, you're too naive."

She paused.

"People like him might just be using the excuse of treating mother to get close to you. I've seen it many times."

Qin Xue shook her head.

"He wouldn't."

Qin Bing clenched her fists.

"Sister, listen to me."

She pointed at Li Wei.

"You absolutely cannot let him touch Mom."

Qin Xue bit her lip.

"But... but the doctors all said there's no other way."

Qin Bing turned around.

"Even so, we can't let him mess around."

She paused.

"What if something goes wrong?"

Qin Xue fell silent.

Li Wei watched the scene unfold.

He sighed.

"Forget it."

He turned to walk out.

Qin Xue quickly called out to him.

"President Li!"

Li Wei stopped in his tracks.

He looked back.

"Your sister is right. I really don't have a medical license."

He paused.

"If something goes wrong, it'll be a lot of trouble for you, and a lot of trouble for me. So, I won't wade into these muddy waters."

Qin Xue's tears began to fall again.

"But..."

Li Wei waved his hand.

"Just stay here and keep your mother company."

After saying that,

He pushed open the door,

And walked out.

Yang Yun gave Qin Bing a complicated look, nodded to Qin Xue, and followed him out.

"Li Wei!"

Li Wei stopped walking.

Yang Yun walked up to him.

"Can you really save Qin Xue's mother?"

Li Wei nodded.

"Maybe."

Yang Yun bit her lip.

"Then why didn't you insist?"

Li Wei smiled.

"Why should I insist? Besides, I think Qin Bing is right; I don't have a medical license."

He paused.

"If something were to go wrong, I'd get no credit and only end up covered in filth, not to mention it would affect the relationship between the sisters."

Yang Yun broke into a smile.

"Still joking, I see you're taking it well. That last sentence was the real point, wasn't it? I didn't expect you to be such a gentleman who cherishes the fair sex!"

Li Wei waved his hand.

"Don't tease. I'm actually quite annoyed right now; I don't have time for that."

Yang Yun took his hand.

"Look at you. So what do we do now? Ever since I've known that girl Qin Bing, she's been incredibly stubborn. She's not the type to change her mind easily."

Li Wei thought for a moment.

"Then we can only wait."

He paused.

"Wait until Qin Bing comes around, or until her mother's condition worsens and they have no other choice. Then she'll naturally come looking for me."

Yang Yun was silent for a few seconds.

"And what if she never comes around?"

Li Wei turned toward the elevator.

"Then there's nothing that can be done."

Yang Yun followed him.

The two of them stepped into the elevator.

The elevator doors closed.

They descended to the first floor,

And walked out of the hospital.

The night breeze blew past,

A bit chilly.

Yang Yun hugged her arms, her beautiful eyes looking at him.

"It's so cold. Give me some warmth."

Li Wei smiled slightly.

He reached out and pulled Yang Yun into his arms.

"Let's go to my place."

Yang Yun nodded, her beauty beyond compare... Half an hour later.

They arrived at Seaview No. 1.

Li Wei parked the car in front of Villa A08.

He turned off the engine,

And got out of the car.

Yang Yun also got out,

And followed him into the house.

Li Wei took off his shoes,

Walked over to the sofa, and sat down.

Yang Yun sat beside him,

Leaning her head on his shoulder.

"Li Wei."

Li Wei gave a hum of acknowledgment.

Yang Yun paused.

"Tonight, you're not going to say you're a bit tired again, are you?"

Li Wei turned his head.

"I think I only said that once. Why the 'again'? Besides, aren't you planning to go back to the Studio tomorrow?"

Yang Yun gave him a playful roll of her eyes.

"I'm not going back."

She paused.

"Mainly because I'm afraid you'll start overthinking things if you're alone."

Li Wei laughed.

"You think I'm too fragile. What would a grown man like me have to overthink?"

Yang Yun looked up.

"Thinking about Qin Xue's mother."

Li Wei patted her head.

"I won't."

Yang Yun stared at him for a few seconds.

"Liar."

She paused.

"I can tell. You actually care quite a lot."

Li Wei didn't speak.

Yang Yun continued,

"Are you thinking that if something really happens to Qin Xue's mother, you'll feel very guilty?"

Li Wei leaned back on the sofa.

"Fine, I admit I feel a little that way."

Yang Yun took his hand.

"That's more like it. But it's not your fault."

She paused.

"It's Qin Bing who won't let you save her. There's nothing you can do."

Li Wei closed his eyes.

"I know."

Yang Yun leaned against his chest.

"Then don't think about it anymore."

She paused.

"Get some good rest."

Li Wei gave a hum of agreement.

The two of them just sat there like that.

Neither of them spoke.

The house was very quiet,

Save for the ticking of the clock on the wall.

After a while,

Yang Yun stood up.

"I'm going to take a shower first."

Li Wei nodded.

Yang Yun walked into the bathroom,

And closed the door.

Li Wei sat on the sofa,

Took out his phone,

And opened the system panel.

【host: Li Wei】

【Bank Card Balance: 6,012,155 Yuan】

【Points: 500】

【Charm: 77】

【Skills: Beginner Fighting Skill, Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Needle Technique (God-Level Acupuncture)】

【Items: None】

Li Wei looked at that acupuncture skill.

He sighed.

To have such a powerful skill,

Yet be unable to use it.

It was so damn frustrating.

Li Wei closed the system panel,

Stood up,

And walked upstairs.

He changed into his pajamas,

And came back downstairs.

Yang Yun had already finished her shower.

She was wearing one of his white shirts.

The hem just barely covered the tops of her thighs,

Leaving her two fair legs exposed.
