"I'm going to have surgery in two days, and I want to be discharged from the hospital today." Qi Yong looked around at everyone, and finally paused at Qi Qi's face, "Qi Qi, you come back with me."
"Um?"
"You and Mo Xun have already divorced, and now you live with Tang Jue, which is not right. Besides..." Qi Yong paused for a moment, "I don't know how long I can live. Now, as a family, we can stay together for two more days."
As soon as Qi Yong said this, everyone fell into sadness. Even though Qi Yu was reluctant to see Qi Qi, she was also shrouded in sadness at the moment and did not say anything to disagree.
Qiqi felt sad, so she naturally wouldn't refuse and nodded directly.
Tang Jue knew Qiqi's attachment to family affection and did not stop her. Qiqi was quite surprised by this. She did not expect Tang Jue to be so easy to talk to this time.

When Qi Yong and his family returned home, they saw from afar that there were many more security guards patrolling the community. Especially on the floor where they lived, someone would come up with a baton to check.
"I don't know what happened today. Suddenly, many security guards came to the community. Moreover, they were all strangers. I heard from the property management that it was to protect our safety. Our community has not had any incidents for so many years. Is it necessary to have such a protection law?"
"That's right. They come here now and then to check. It always makes me feel uneasy. It's like something big is going to happen."
On the way upstairs, I heard the neighbors complaining.
Qi Yong frowned, as if thinking about something. Jiang Shao listened and asked, "Did something big happen in this area while you were away?"
Qi Yong cast his gaze towards Qi Qi, wanting to say something, but in the end, he just said, "Nothing will happen. Just let them go."
Qiqi didn't associate this matter with herself at all and didn't know that it was Tang Jue who arranged this.
——
There were only two beds in Qi's house. Qi Yong and Jiang Shao slept on one bed, and the remaining bed was for Qi Yu. Qi Yu didn't say a word to her all day, and at night, Qi Qi had no choice but to lie on the sofa with her quilt in her arms.
She tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Tang Jue called her, and she told her about her troubles, which made her feel better.
After hanging up the phone, I couldn't help but knocked on Qi Yu's door tentatively.
"Sister, can you talk to me?"
Qi Yu curled up in bed, but she had no desire to sleep. When she heard Qi Qi calling her from outside, she bit her lips and covered her ears. She felt very uncomfortable. She knew she was jealous, but it was not just jealousy, but also... the pain of being betrayed by her best sister.
The double blow made it impossible for her to be nice to Qiqi. At least, not in the near future.
"sister… "
"I'm asleep, don't disturb me." Qi Yu pulled the quilt higher.
Outside, Qiqi listened to the cold voice, and finally, she raised her hand, then put it down again and did not knock on the door again.
Inside, Qi Yu listened for a while, but didn't hear any more voices. She felt a little embarrassed and disappointed. Does this look like an apology? He backed down after just one sentence. There's no sincerity at all!
When Qi Yu was thinking about it, the cell phone suddenly rang.
The loud ringtone sounded particularly harsh in such a night. She took it out and looked at it. It was an unfamiliar number. Without thinking much, she took the phone and put it to her ear.
"Hello."
"Miss Qi." The voice on the other side was that of a middle-aged man, a complete stranger to Qi Yu. However, the other party called her name accurately. She thought it was a family member of a patient, so she sat up and said politely, "Hello, what's the matter so late?"
"I've been looking for Director Qi today, hoping he would cooperate with me in doing something, but he refused to agree. So, I can only call you, Miss Qi."
I don't know why, but in the middle of the night, when I heard the voice of this middle-aged man, I felt a chill in my ears. She frowned and leaned back, "Who are you? Do you want my dad to cooperate with you to do something? I tell you, if you want my dad to do something that is against the will of heaven, my dad will definitely not agree!"
The other party laughed, "Miss Qi, don't be nervous. I won't do anything that will harm the world. I just want to meet another Miss Qi."
"Qiqi?"
"Um."
"What do you want to see her for?"
"She is the current woman of Tang Clan's Young Master Tang Jue. I heard that the Young Master of Tang Clan holds her in his hands like a treasure. If I can please Miss Qi, I won't have to worry about not being able to please the Young Master, don't you think? Therefore, there are more people who want to see her than just me. I'm afraid there are thousands of them. But your father just doesn't want to help me, so I have no choice but to find you, Miss Qi."
Qi Yu felt very uncomfortable when she heard this. She guessed that the other party probably wanted to ask Tang Jue for something, but Tang Jue didn't buy his idea, so he came to Qi Qi.
She didn't want to listen any more, so she just said, "I don't know anything about the Young Master of the Tang Sect. If you want to ask for help, just ask him directly. I'm hanging up now!"
Qi Yu was about to hang up the phone when she said this. But the next moment, the other party's tone turned cold.
"Miss Qi, you can hang up the phone if you want. But I want to remind you: if you dare to hang up the phone today, tomorrow... before tomorrow, the fact that your father killed your second uncle will be made public!"
Qi Yu was shocked.
I thought I heard it wrong.
"You...what did you say?"
"Your father didn't tell you, did he? He has his hands full of dirty tricks. You are his daughter after all, and he still has to maintain his clean and honest image in front of you, right? But you also know that the position of director originally belonged to your second uncle... If he hadn't killed your second uncle, he wouldn't have a job now."
"You're talking nonsense!" Qi Yu said excitedly, "I won't allow you to slander my dad!"
"Whether it is slander or not, you can judge for yourself. Or, tomorrow you can ask your father in person. Ask him if he killed your second uncle, and ask him if he knows me. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself to Miss Qi. My last name is Yuan, and my name is Yuan Li. If Miss Qi doesn't mind, you can call me Uncle Li."
Qi Yu's face turned pale. She almost wanted to hang up the phone immediately. However, she suddenly remembered that Qi Qi had said so firmly that Tang Jue was not the murderer of her second uncle.
Could it be that...
Her heart was beating fast. Her hands were shaking as she was about to hang up the phone, but she didn't dare to move.
In the end, he could only say: "What do you want to do by telling me this?"
"It's simple. I want to see Miss Qiqi."
