02 - Qi Ling, would you hate me touching you?

Translated by AJ_Rider

Could not see Much from Ding Cheng, except for his slightly red eyes, but as soon as he came out, the three bodyguards all bowed their heads. It was absolute that they had not done a good job of protecting Qi Ling.

“Brother He, please call some more people, not only in front of the ward, but also near the hospital lobby. No one is allowed to visit Qi Ling without my permission.”

Ding Cheng and He Li looked at each other. It was a person Qi Ling trusted, and Ding Cheng couldn’t directly call the shots to fire him, but if such a mistake occurred again, Ding Cheng would no longer think of these old feelings.

“Yes!” He Li corrected his expression and responded, then he went to the side to call someone. He finally recognized who the person in front of him was, the young master of the Ding family who Qi Ling married three years ago. No one is more qualified to say such a thing than him.

“Do you have any plans? If you need my help, just say it.” Lu Ming patted Ding Cheng on the shoulder. From the time he called Ding Cheng, he had a rough guess about the current situation.

If there were no such accidents, Ding Cheng would have taken the initiative to divorce according to the agreement between him and Father Ding, but now there is absolutely no such possibility. In the future, whether Qi Ling is good or bad, Ding Cheng will not retreat after he has taken this step.

But Ding Cheng, who was originally such a neat temperament, had been procrastinating for so many years in the matter of Qi Ling, which was unexpected.

“I won’t be polite with you,” Ding Cheng nodded to Lu Ming, and then solemnly thanked him again, “Thanks.” If it hadn’t been for Lu Ming to tell him that Qi Ling had a car accident, the Ding and Qi families would not take the initiative to tell him about Qi Ling’s situation. Perhaps he would fabricate something to fool him, and if time was delayed, he didn’t know how Qi Ling would be treated.

After they finished speaking, Lu Ming accompanied Ding Cheng to find Jiang Suwen, the doctor in charge of Qi Ling. The man was said to be a high school classmate in Qi Ling. They talked a lot. Qi Ling’s situation was better than Ding Cheng thought, at least not as desperate as Lu Ming heard from the rumors.

“It’s our negligence. The previous things will not happen again. Today’s visiting time… Forget it, you can be quiet and can stay a little longer.” Jiang Suwen sent them to the ward, and only Ding Cheng himself went in.

“Is he the young master of the Ding family who married Qi Ling three years ago?”

"

"

Jiang Suwen asked in a low voice, as if he was just talking to himself, and he seemed to be examining something.

Lu Ming’s face faded a little when he heard this. It was because Ding Cheng felt uneasy. Ding Cheng liked Qi Ling to death, but Qi Ling didn’t know anything from beginning to end.

“He is, do you have an opinion?” Lu Ming tilted his head and glanced at Jiang Suwen.

“Is the camera outside the ward a display? Something like that happened and the hospital had no response at all. If it weren’t for Ding Cheng and I to come…” But the fact is that it was useless by the time they came. Qi Bai and Qi Wei had already taken Qi Ling’s fingerprints.

The document is actually not difficult to guess, it should be the equity transfer or management power of attorney of the Qi family industry. The power of the Qi family is in the hands of Qi Ling. Qi Bai and Qi Wei have always been unbalanced. Maybe Qi Ling’s accident has something to do with them.

“Sorry, this is indeed our negligence,” Jiang Suwen touched his nose and apologized again.

Lu Ming didn’t dare to really offend Jiang Suwen, the chief doctor, so he went to one side and sat down and waited for Ding Cheng to come out.

According to Jiang Suwen, Qi Ling has not been out of the dangerous period, and the time for daily visits is limited. Ding Cheng wants to stay with Qi Ling, but he can’t delay Qi Ling’s treatment, so he stayed for half an hour then came out.

He Li had already called enough people over there to guard. Ding Cheng carefully instructed him several times before he and Lu Ming left the hospital. He hadn’t closed his eyes for two days. Under the down jacket was still wearing summer clothes, so he needed to clean up.

Ding Cheng didn’t return to Ding’s house, but asked Lu Ming to send him to a high-end community where he had his own apartment.

He wants to make money, to raise Qi Ling and to be able to afford their future. He can no longer be in the same state of eating and playing everywhere and just waiting to die. For some things, he also needs some independent space to think about it.

As for the hospital, Jiang Suwen asked the nurse to push Qi Ling into the operating room. The operation lights were turned on. Only Jiang Suwen and Qi Ling were inside. He picked up the injection and was about to inject Qi Ling, but saw the person who should have been sleeping opening his eyes.

“It looks like… you heard it all?”

Jiang Suwen continued to push the needle into the blood vessel of Qi Ling’s arm. To really look like a vegetable, just pretending is not enough, but Qi Ling’s consciousness can wake up so quickly without the medicine it was unexpected.

Qi Ling didn’t respond and only glanced at Jiang Suwen. After a while, he sat up by himself.

He did have a car accident five days ago. The car fell very badly. He suffered no serious problems except for a small injury to his leg. However, he arranged for He Li and Jiang Suwen to perform this play in order to attract Qi Bai and Qi Wei, and some secretly calculating people to come out.

What Qi Bo and Qi Wei did when they came to the hospital was within Qi Ling’s expectation, but Ding Cheng’s return and the words he said were completely beyond his expectation.

Qi Ling gently squeezed his fingertips, there seemed to be the temperature of Ding Cheng’s tears remaining there, which made Qi Ling, who had always thought he had a thorough insight, feel at a loss. For ten years, Ding Cheng said that he liked him for ten years. It’s not an impulse.

Jiang Suwen turned on his cell phone and uploaded a piece of video data to Qi Ling’s cell phone. This was exactly what happened in the ward not long ago. Not only were there cameras outside the ward, but there were also inside his ward, but the location was relatively hidden and difficult to be discovered.

Otherwise, Jiang Suwen would not rest assured that Qi Ling, who was completely incapable of action, would face the Qi Bai and Qi Wei, father and son, who had been frantic in order to take control of the family.

Qi Ling turned on the phone, and after a pause, Ding Cheng’s voice came into his ears clearly, “…I like you, I like you so much…”

But he didn’t know, he didn’t know it before today, or even in his last life. It should have been more than a month after the Spring Festival and Lantern Festival. Ding Cheng came to him. They went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce. The next day Ding Cheng went abroad.

He occasionally heard news about Ding Cheng winning prizes abroad, but he never saw him again before his death.

In his impression, Ding Cheng is just a more obedient and non-competitive young master in the family of acquaintances. Their marriage is a commercial marriage without personal feelings. When the time was right, they would free each other.

But now Ding Cheng came back as soon as he got the news, confessed to him who was going to be a vegetable, and said that he would make money to support him in the future.

“What are you going to do?” Jiang Suwen pulled the chair and sat down. He played with Qi Ling for several days and he was tired. Especially when he responded to Ding Cheng’s detailed inquiry before.

Qi Ling closed the video, and closed his eyes. He did not answer Jiang Suwen’s question, but he took the computer and started working immediately. He didn’t answer not because he didn’t want to answer, but because he didn’t know how to answer.

Obviously, when he married Ding Cheng back then, and Ding Cheng left to go abroad, there must be something he didn’t know about. Even now, Ding’s attitude towards him should be related to Ding Cheng.

“I think this young master is quite interesting,” Jiang Suwen wanted to ease the atmosphere, but Qi Ling’s gaze made him startled for a moment, causing him to change his attitude.

He waved his hand, “Okay, I’m wrong, it’s my sister-in-law.”

To be honest, Ding Cheng’s presence before today was pitiful, because he hasn’t shown up for a long time, many times they would subconsciously forget that Qi Ling and Him were married three years ago.

“You callHe Li, let him notify Wang Hai and Attorney Chen, and you can start preparing.”

Qi Ling talked about the business, his face was a little more serious than before, but it was also more normal. Obviously, for now he didn’t think about how to deal with Ding Cheng’s confession.

As for Ding Cheng, after returning to his residence, he cleaned the house, took a bath and ate by himself. Fell asleep until 7 o’clock in the morning, then when it was dawn, he took a taxi to the hospital.

But before he even entered the ward, he received a call from his elder brother Ding Bo. His grandfather has four sons and children born to four sons. In addition, he has nine boys, not a single girl. Ding Cheng is the youngest, his elder brother is twelve years older than him.

“Brother,” Ding Cheng walked to the stairway at the end of the corridor and answered the phone. He knew in his heart that even if he didn’t take the initiative to tell, the Ding family would know in about a day, and now it is almost as expected.

“Returned to China?” Ding Bo called Ding Cheng while sitting on the sofa in the bedroom. Obviously the secretary told him the news, and he called.

“I’m here with Qi Lingin the hospital,” Ding Cheng did not hide, he continued, “In the future…no matter whether Qi Ling is good or bad, I will never go abroad again. When the situation here stabilizes, I will come back to meet Grandpa and tell him personally.”

Because of the difference in age, Ding Bo and his father, Ding Hande, were almost indulgent to Ding Cheng. Except for the Grandfather, no one can control Ding Cheng. Of course, Ding Cheng, except for being a little foolish in his youth, there was no time when he was really muddy.

“Before this, please don’t tell grandpa the news of my return.”

Ding Bo frowned when he heard the words. Many times, he wanted to catch Qi Ling and fight. He was silent for a long time. He replied, “I’ll help you conceal it until this weekend at most.”

Although Grandpa Ding had retired, there weren’t many things that could be kept from him at home, especially about Ding Cheng.

“Okay, thank you, brother.”

Ding Cheng thanked him and hung up the phone. He breathed a sigh of relief. He didn’t intend to worry about the Ding family’s affairs for the time being. Before returning to the ward, he took a deep breath and opened the door.

He walked to the chair in front of the hospital bed and sat down, raised his hand and gently placed it on Qi Ling’s elbow, his voice was low, gentle and nice, “Qi Ling, I came to see you, did you sleep well yesterday?”

Ding Cheng asked and looked at Qi Ling carefully. Yesterday, his entire face was wrapped up, but half of his face was exposed today, though his head was still wrapped tightly. Ding Cheng estimated that he was seriously injured there.

“It seems to be okay.” Ding Cheng took a deep breath, raised his hand, and gently touched Qi Ling’s cheek with the back of his finger. He felt the warmth that belongs to a living person, and his heart really settled down.

“I know you like to be quiet, but when you fall asleep, I want to wake you up, so I can’t do what you like.”

His finger back continued to stroke Qi Ling’s face before he took it back with nostalgia. He said in a dazed tone, “I used to want to touch you…anywhere is good, but I’m afraid you would hate me, so I didn’t say anything.”

Ding Cheng wondered if there was anyone else like him. When he liked people, he became too cautious and cowardly. He didn’t dare to express, he didn’t dare to tell Qi Ling what he wanted, and he would definitely refuse to even face Qi Ling.

But he was not reconciled, and used all means to occupy the most important and righteous position around Qi Ling. He knew that Qi Ling, when married, would not raise people outside like Qi Bai. Even if Qi Ling did not like him, he wouldn’t like other people.

However, his grandfather did not give him such a one-sided opportunity, he only gave him three years, but these three years are the most important three years for Qi Ling …

“Qiling, would you hate me for touching you?” Ding Cheng asked, then he sighed again. Now Qi Ling didn’t feel anything about the outside world. Qi Ling probably didn’t know what he said when he touched him.

But even so, Ding Cheng raised his hand again, no longer just grazing with his fingers, but resting his palm on Qi Ling’s cheek, just letting Qi Ling feel him as much as possible.
