God of Death's First Love [MTL]

Ch 23

Chapter 23

"Don't think too much." Seeing that she was completely awake, Jiang Qi let go coldly and returned to his original aloof look, "I just can't bear to see a girl working so hard." Girls need more care.

This was probably engraved into his bones before he became a god.

Although all human beings are equal in the face of death, he still retains this subconscious mind.

"...Thank you." Ye Qing suppressed the surprise in his heart.

No matter what his reasons were, this was the first time that she was protected by another god as a human being, and her impression of Jiang Qi couldn't help but become a little better.

Her legs were still a little weak when walking, and she couldn't keep up with his pace. In addition, the training room was pitch dark. Even if there were no obstacles, people would subconsciously slow down when groping in the dark. When Jiang Qi walked to the door, she was still listening to the sound and trying to move in his direction.

"...Forget it."

He turned back with a cold face and held her hand reluctantly.

"Ah?"

"This way."

He was used to walking in the dark, but this woman was different.

"This power outage is really weird." Ye Qingchao complained softly.

"..." The culprit glanced at her sideways, with no intention of admitting it at all, and changed the subject without leaving any trace, "This is the student union's entrance examination. In fact, there is no need to completely defeat the robot, as long as you persist on the court for an hour. Just lose."

As a result, she ended the battle in less than an hour, so she didn't blame him for not reminding her.

"...Huh?" She initially thought he was testing her magical power, but was there really someone watching the battle behind the wall?

Ye Qing thought hard for a long time, and finally learned from the vague memory of the original owner that when she entered the first grade, she actually filled out an application form for membership, but the people above felt that the original owner really had no talent, so it disappeared.

Who took it out again this time to deliberately mess with her?

The most likely person in the student union is Chu Xinxin... Okay, she remembered it.

At this time, Jiang Qi happened to open the iron door that sealed off the school. At the same time, the school's circuit was restored, and the lights in the corridor lit up in rows, making her squint her eyes as she had already adapted to the darkness.

Many students had been waiting outside for a long time. When they saw the two people walking out hand in hand, the originally noisy crowd suddenly became quiet.

Pei Yang, who hurried over with maintenance personnel, stared at Jiang Qi coldly, snorted, turned around and left.

If there weren't so many people here, he probably wouldn't be able to help but say hello to this kid's face.

There is nothing wrong with pretending to be cold, as a man might not be able to help but want to hit someone when he sees him.

With a smile on her face, Chu Xinxin said congratulations in her ear: "Actually, your application form has been stored in the student union for a long time. At the end of last semester, your grades reached our basic standards. I just want you to try it." , The sudden assessment didn't scare you, did it? But just pass it, you will be one of us from now on."

In XX Middle School, members of the student union can wear exclusive uniforms and represent the school at various activities and competitions, symbolizing extremely high of honor.

Among the people standing here, there are also many who have heard about the friction between Chu Xinxin and Ye Qing. Seeing Chu Xinxin's kind attitude regardless of past grudges, their favorable impression of her has increased a lot. In contrast, they were more worried that Ye Qing, who had an extreme personality, would show off Chu Xinxin in public and make everyone unhappy.

But Ye Qing seemed to be in a good mood today. She patted Chu Xinxin on the shoulder like a good sister and gave her a meaningful smile: "I wasn't scared, and I had a lot of fun. It turned out to be your help, thank you Ah."

If Chu Xinxin hadn't helped her, she would have been unable to get over the green-haired monster.

Visible to the naked eye, Chu Xinxin's expression was ferocious for a moment.

Ye Qing almost laughed out loud.

Chu Xinxin inexplicably felt that Ye Qing today was a bit yin and yang, different from the people in the past who liked to criticize her mindlessly. If Ye Qing was so irritated by her in the past, he would definitely scold her in front of her classmates, but now she seems to be smarter.

Bad luck today.

Not knowing whether it was guilt or anger, she turned around and took Shen Fengcheng's arm and left, ready to do her own business. But she saw Shen Fengcheng gently raising his head, avoiding her neighbor without leaving a trace, lowering his eyes and extending his hand to Ye Qingyou, smiling: "Do you have time to have a meal together?"

Chu Xinxin:?

Standing there, a little embarrassed.

"No time." Ye Qing didn't even raise his head and choked on his words.

She is not Chu Xinxin, she is a noble god and will not cater to anyone with ulterior motives.

She confidently took Ye Rou's hand in front of everyone and led her sister out.

"It's actually rumors that Ye Qing and Ye Rou are not getting along. Seeing that they have such a tacit understanding, they walk together after school." Someone whispered behind their back.

"I think the previous legends about Ye Qing... are a bit exaggerated." "

This is the first time I saw her in person. I think her quality is not bad. At least she is not as exaggerated as swearing and swearing." "

To be honest, she has a real temper. After all, she is not Any girl can reject Shen Fengcheng in public."

"Damn, you're so cunning, I like it!"

In the corner, a young lady holding a lollipop laughed and punched the wall: "Hahaha, did you hear that stupid Shen Fengcheng was rejected? Yes!"

Sister Ye is indeed Sister Ye, she can easily do things that other girls can't do!

"I have already contacted Gu Yun. Now Yuan Hongmei has probably learned about our almost car accident. She will definitely take Yeats home during this holiday. What about Lin Fangxue? "

Ye Qing counted on her fingers. They deliberately hid the car accident that happened yesterday. They were going to class normally, but Ye Zhaogu would definitely get the news from the media today.

After all, Ye Zhaogu might not believe what the two children said, or he might think that Lin Fangxue had other motives.

Since you want to act, you have to take care of all aspects.

"I originally wanted to get her an onion..." Ye Rou twitched the corner of her mouth, "But your words really worked, and my mother also made sense." "OK, come in later and do as I say

. Do."

Ye family.

"Ye Rou was almost hit. Why didn't Lin Fangxue tell me about such a serious matter?" Ye Zhaogu tightened his lips with a hint of anger.

"It wasn't a collision, wasn't it? The two sisters didn't even have a scratch. Moreover, it was a drunk driving accident. The results were found out not long after. What else can we do? As long as they are told to be more careful when crossing the road in the future, this matter will be over. . Madam doesn't want to tell you, maybe she wants to keep you from worrying."

"Where are Ye Rou and the others?"

"They are probably still on their way home."

Ye Zhaogu did not go directly to the company this time, and was still angry. , sat down on the sofa: "Where is Lin Fangxue? Let her come to see me."

"Madam, she..." The housekeeper looked a bit embarrassed.

"You're obviously at home, but you didn't even say hello when I came back?" He thought she went out to the mall again.

"No, madam, she's upstairs...crying in the room!" The housekeeper hesitated a little, but continued in a low voice, "Since last night, I haven't left the room all day." Ye Zhaogu's face showed a sullen look

. After fading a bit, he frowned, then got up and went upstairs, knocking on her door himself.

It is impossible to say that he is not worried. Even if the passion has subsided now, she is his wife in name and belongs to the Ye family. How can he let her suffer.

Lin Fangxue didn't lock the door. He knocked twice and there was no response, so he pushed the door open and went in.

"You..." Ye Zhaogu originally wanted to ask a few questions, but when he saw Lin Fangxue wiping tears in the room, his words suddenly choked in his throat, and his anger was suddenly extinguished.

After so many years of marriage, this was the first time he saw her cry.

Lin Fangxue is a woman who doesn't like to lose face. In the past, she wanted to shine and outshine the other wives. Now, even if they quarrel over trivial matters from time to time, even though she can only compromise, she will never do it in front of him. Show your vulnerable side.

Women are no longer young, and their faces will look more ugly when they cry. However, after years of careful maintenance, Lin Fangxue is still in her prime, even several years younger than he remembered. This look makes him feel inexplicable. A little guilty and a little distressed.

After all, as her only man, he did treat her badly.

"Why are you crying?" He softened his tone unconsciously.

"It's okay." Lin Fangxue wiped her tears, "I'm just a little worried about the two sisters in the future..."

She deliberately spoke half-sentence to make people think deeply.

Ye Zhaogu's eyes darkened.

If Lin Fangxue said that she was scared because of what happened yesterday, that would be understandable, but she said that in the future, could it be possible that she also knew something inside?

But why didn't she tell him?

He just heard someone report to him today, saying that some audacious self-media went to great lengths to gain popularity. They actually made the culprit behind the car accident so mysterious that it was revealed that it was someone from within the Ye family. Wasn't that a metaphor for Yuan Hongmei? ?

But Yuan Hongmei is obviously not that kind of person.

Before going home, he preferred that this was an ordinary accident, but now, he had to think about the possibility of this incident -

"Do you suspect Yuan Hongmei?" he asked suddenly.

Lin Fangxue shook her head and said nothing.

But the more she said nothing, the more he suspected that it was true.

What is Lin Fangxue afraid of? What she was afraid of was that their relationship as a couple was not stable, and if she pushed him too hard, he would not only not believe her, but also kick her out.

No matter how wronged she was, she didn't dare to mention Yuan Hongmei to him blatantly, so she could only swallow it.

As for other people, she definitely doesn't have such concerns.

Not long after, Yuan Hongmei came with her daughter Ye Zhi. She also heard that the Ye Rou sisters almost had an accident, so she happened to bring Ye Zhi to see them.

Yeats attended classes at GU Middle School next door, and was picked up by his mother while still wearing school uniform. When meeting the Ye family, they will greet each other sweetly, with a lively smile on their faces.

Everyone in the Ye family liked this third lady, especially Ye Zhaogu.

The father loves his daughter more, and Yeats looks like a smaller version of Yuan Hongmei. People will always be more tolerant of beautiful things. What's more, this third daughter is also very proud. She has always been among the best in academic performance. She is well-behaved and doesn't cause trouble. She is nothing like the troublesome Ye Qing.

"Dad, I was rated as outstanding last semester, and now I am on the candidate list of student union members~" After returning home, Yeats reported the awards she won last semester as usual, counting them with a bit of pride, "As long as I am like this If your semester scores rank among the top ten in the year, you will most likely be able to join the student union and participate in various competitions across the country!" "

Then I will be just like you, Sister Ye Rou." Yuan Hongmei touched her head lovingly.

"It's different, sister Ye Rou has always been a role model for me to learn from." Yeats is very sensible.

When Ye Zhaogu saw them, he couldn't help but have doubts in his heart.

Yuan Hongmei seldom set foot in the Ye family, but she came at this time...

But when she saw Yeats, her depressed mood couldn't help but improve. Yuan Hongmei was indeed good at educating children, and the children she taught were polite and quality, so what could she do about herself? She might be a scheming murderer. Besides, she had been with him for so long and was not interested in fame or money. How could he doubt her.

Could it be that Lin Fangxue made a mistake.

"I'm back -" Ye Qing opened the door of Ye's house as carelessly as ever, and walked in one after another with Ye Rou.

In fact, she calculated the timing well.

The golden elixir, which can improve the cultivation of gods and beautify mortals, was ground into powder by her last night and quietly put into Lin Fangxue's teacup.

Lin Fangxue planted a seed of doubt in Ye Zhaogu, so she could let it take root and sprout.

"How many years have we not seen, Ye Rou Ye Qing, do you still remember auntie?" Yuan Hongmei seemed to have met her family and came to greet her in a pretentious manner. This is also her usual routine. The original owner did blame her when she was a child. To this aunt The impression was actually pretty good.

Ye Rou retracted her hand coldly, as before, she didn't want to see Yuan Hongmei.

But Yuan Hongmei is not worried. She also knows Ye Rou's temperament. Anyway, there is a younger one here who can be coaxed into submission.

She reached out and took Ye Qing's schoolbag, as if treating her own child, her tone was a bit helpless and doting: "Why don't you wear school uniforms, you kid... I know that today's students like individuality, but they can't help it. Follow the school rules."

The implication is that Lin Fangxue spoiled Ye Qing.

"Yuan...Aunt Yuan?" She looked up at her innocently, seeming to have some impression of her, so she called out unfamiliarly, "But from today on, I don't have to wear school uniform." When she said this, the people present

included Ye Zhaogu's first thought was that Miss Ye Er had probably been expelled from school for not obeying discipline.

Of course, it was just a momentary thought.

She slowly took out the student union uniform from her schoolbag, put it on and twirled it around: "Is it better-looking than the school uniform?"

Housekeeper: ...

Miss, which store did you get it custom-made? It's just like the real thing.

"Stop making trouble, you still have to abide by the school's rules. If you like nice-looking clothes, my aunt will take you to pick them out on weekends." Yuan Hongmei was stunned for a moment, then understood something again, and smiled.

"Ye Qing passed the assessment today. This is the uniform issued to her by the school." Ye Rou explained coldly on the side, "She ranked first in the class in the final exam of the practical class, and her cultural class score also ranked among the top 200 in her grade. , so our school's position in this year's national competition is also hers."

Yuan Hongmei:?

Yeats:?

housekeeper:? ? ?

Yeats's excellence has always made Yuan Hongmei proud, and being able to compare with Lin Fangxue's daughter not only gave her a sigh of relief, but also made Ye Zhaogu pay more attention to them, mother and son.

But Yuan Hongmei never expected that Ye Qing could actually join the student union.

That is completely different from occasionally being at the top of the grade. Members of the student union can participate in various national competitions, which are equivalent to the top talents designated by the school. The rankings they participate in are also nationwide. This requires practicality. Real ability!

Ye Zhaogu also looked over in surprise.

Ye Qing seemed to be oblivious to these glances. He folded his clothes back, picked up his schoolbag and walked upstairs.

She was counting silently.

Sure enough, not long after, when Yuan Hongmei was busy cooking in the kitchen, Ye Zhaogu found them alone.

"Tell me what happened last night in detail." Ye Zhaogu ordered the people to stand up, with a touch of majesty.

Ye Rou turned her head slightly, with a bit of grievance, and began to cry as she spoke: "That big truck rushed directly towards me. If my sister hadn't helped me, I might have..." "It's just

that It's just an accident, sister, don't think about it." Ye Qing squeezed her hand and muttered as if he had no confidence, "After all...after all... there are no people walking on that road, and the driver must drive faster when he is drunk, plus The two of us were small and inconspicuous. He probably didn't even see us, so he didn't even step on the brakes."

"Didn't step on the brakes?" Ye Zhaogu frowned.

After all, the two sisters were still children. They had never driven a car and did not know the view from the driver's position.

He also believes more in what children say.

"It's definitely not intentional. After all, if it was, that person would have to know our travel time and route, and hire someone to guard the intersection. The only person who knows about this is the driver of the Ye family, who is my father's man." Ye Qing lowered his voice. He turned his head, tugged at the corner of his messed up clothes, and whispered innocently to himself, "I believe in dad... I also believe in people who dad believes in."

Ye Zhaogu's heart softened, and he touched her for the first time. head.

Ye Qing, who seemed naughty and troublesome, was actually... just a simple child. I vaguely remember that she used to complain that she hated her father, but he actually took it seriously. I didn't expect that he was a soft-spoken person.

He usually cries to attract attention, but when it comes to business, he is unexpectedly sensible, which reminds him of Lin Fangxue in the past.

"Then Dad will tell you one more thing." He became more serious and looked at her with dark eyes, hoping that she could understand it earlier, and also hoped that she would understand nothing and be carefree, "Among the people of the Ye family, , even among my men, there will be traitors."

After she said this, it reminded him.

There is only one person who knows their travel time and route, as well as the motive for committing the crime -

Yuan Hongmei.

It's just that he couldn't believe it.

"Dad...is he doubting Aunt Yuan?" Ye Qing tilted her head innocently.

After all, children are more sensitive to this kind of thing.

"..." For a moment, Ye Zhaogu didn't know what to say to her.

But it doesn't rule out the possibility that Lin Fangxue said something to her. If she learned to scheming at such a young age...

"It's definitely not Aunt Yuan!" At this time, Ye Qing gave an answer that was completely opposite to what he imagined. Feeling a little excited, she anxiously grabbed his sleeves and blushed, trying to defend her, "Aunt Yuan is really nice and treats me very well. I can prove... If you don't believe me, I'll take you to the room to see !"

He said and forced him to go to his room.

"I didn't like studying when I was a child, but my mother forced me to learn Chinese characters. If I couldn't learn it, I would have no snacks to eat. Aunt Yuan not only secretly bought me a bunch of lollipops that I liked to eat, but also bought me toy cars. , dolls, and a game console!" She dug out all the toys hidden under the bed and counted each thing seriously, "And my mother always doesn't like to dress me up, saying that young girls It's good to be bare-faced, but Aunt Yuan felt sorry for me and bought me these skull pendants, which are usually not available in the market, as well as manicures. My mother doesn't know how to do these. Aunt Yuan introduced me to get them... "

There's more."

Ye Zhaogu was just surprised when he heard it at first, but the more he listened, the more frightened he became.

While he was busy at work, something like this happened...

He had long wondered why Ye Rou and Ye Qing were taught good virtues while Ye Qing was born from the same mother. What else did Yuan Hongmei do?

"My parents used to be very busy and didn't come to accompany me. Only Aunt Yuan, after knowing that I failed in the exam, would come to me in the car and treat me to delicious food, tell me not to be discouraged, and even take me to the amusement park. ..."

"You went to a closed school before, how did you succeed?" He seemed to have realized the key.

"Escape..." Ye Qing then realized that he had said too much, and quickly covered his mouth, "No, Aunt Yuan has asked for leave for me, it's not about skipping classes!" The words gradually weakened, "Anyway, Aunt Yuan really treats me. It's good, dad, don't doubt her..."

Ye Zhaogu's face became darker and darker.
