Chapter 112: Chapter 112: Help Me Ask Xiao Yue for a Favor Chapter 112: Chapter 112: Help Me Ask Xiao Yue for a Favor Qi Yunfan spoke, his gaze turning resentfully towards Wen Nianyou, as if since the beginning of their relationship, not a single thing had gone smoothly. She was simply a jinx!
“Xiaoyi, can you please ask Xiao Yue for a favor on my behalf, to kindly let me off the hook this time?”
Qi Yunfan’s tone was pleading, “Xiaoyi, please help me. You’re the only one who can help me now. Rest assured, I will definitely be devoted to you from now on, I’ll treat you well for the rest of my life.”
Wen Nianyou’s teeth were almost grinding as she listened; Qi Yunfan was actually begging Ye Chuyi so demeaningly, practically putting her on a pedestal—he had never revered her like that!
Yet, Ye Chuyi was expressionless.
Qi Yunfan had previously claimed that he would marry no one else but her in this lifetime. Yet hadn’t he still abandoned her for Wen Nianyou’s family background?
However, she finally understood why Qi Yunfan had been acting out of character; no wonder he had started to treat her well again—it turned out there was an opportunity to use her.
She replied indifferently, “I’m not close to Xiao Yue; I can’t help you. Wasn’t it said before that your fiancée, Miss Wen Nianyou, has a good relationship with Xiao Yue? She even helped you get medicine from Xiao Medical. Why don’t you ask her to plead for you?”
At this topic, Qi Yunfan’s teeth itched with hate: “She deceived me; she has no relationship with Xiao Yue at all. She impersonated you and told Xiao Yue that she was the one who gave Yunzhu the invitation, so that’s why Xiao Yue sold the medicine to me.”
Ye Chuyi looked at Wen Nianyou: “How many people have you lied to? All the blame you toss onto me, all the credit you snatch away. For someone who is a wealthy lady, why do you behave like a sewer rat?”
Wen Nianyou’s voice became uncontrollably shrill, “You’re the rat! Don’t even dream of stealing my life, of taking away my fiancé—Brother Yunfan is mine!”
Ye Chuyi felt she was being accused of something absurd: “Stealing your life? How did you come to that conclusion?”
Wen Nianyou’s heart skipped a beat; she had been too angry and inadvertently blurted out her deepest fear—the terrifying possibility of her fake identity as a wealthy heiress being exposed and her stolen luxurious life coming to an end. Then Ye Chuyi would take her rightful place as a true heiress and lord over her.
Seeing that their conversation had deviated from his goal, Qi Yunfan quickly interjected, “Xiaoyi, Youyou can’t help me, only you can. Please go and speak with Xiao Yue for me!”
“Didn’t you hear me when I said I’m not close with Xiao Yue?”
“I know you’re not close, but Xiao Yue cares a great deal about Yunzhu, and you are the one who truly gave Yunzhu the invitation. If you go and plead for me, Xiao Yue will definitely give you face, and then my family’s hospital can be saved, and my dad won’t have to be interrogated.”
Ye Chuyi looked at him coldly; wasn’t he adept at reading people’s emotions? He could immediately tell that Xiao Yue cared about Yunzhu, so why couldn’t he see that she had no intention of dealing with him?
“Qi Yunfan, you really are well-matched with Wen Nianyou. It’s only an invitation, and yet you both wield it as if it were an imperial edict, taking advantage of favors owed. I casually give someone an invitation, and you both exploit and squeeze it to the last drop. It’s shameful.”
“I will not help you. Your hospital cheated so many patients out of their money; isn’t being shut down what it deserves? On the contrary, it’s rather unjust that you haven’t been arrested.”
After finishing, Ye Chuyi did not linger and left directly.
Seeing her refuse to help, Qi Yunfan’s face turned a sickly pale.
Wen Nianyou stepped forward and hugged his arm: “Brother Yunfan, why beg her? How could she help you when she’s so cold and heartless? Ask me instead, my family has connections and influence; I can help you.”
When Ye Chuyi was there, Qi Yunfan had barely managed to maintain a gentleman’s demeanor. Once she left, he dropped the act completely, shouting angrily: “You still have the face to talk about helping me? Where do you get the nerve to act as if nothing’s wrong? The closure of our hospital, my father’s arrest—it’s all your fault! Our entire family is going to be ruined because of you!”
Wen Nianyou’s face showed terror, and she retreated repeatedly: “Brother Yunfan, don’t be so fierce; I’m really scared. The mess with Doctor Anxin isn’t my fault; it was Chuyi who schemed behind the scenes. I was deceived by her; I’m a victim too!”
