Ye Yifan was clearly shocked. He looked down and started laughing. Shen Qianshu looked at him, baffled, while Tong Hua reached out to slap his forehead. “What are you laughing about?”
“Little sis-in-law, I’m young! Staying up all night is not a problem for me. I’m all energized after a two-hour nap,” Ye Yifan said and smiled.
Shen Qianshu smiled back at him too.
The time she spent in the hospital was long. Zhong Ran sent someone to guard outside the hospital entrance. Gu Yuanli did not come to visit her too, but he sent someone to deliver a bouquet of flowers. Shen Qianshu was indifferent. After staying in the hospital for almost a week, the doctor allowed her to be discharged. She then returned to Rose Castle. During that period of time, the old lady had been holding back Ye Ling’s will and did not announce it. The whole AG was in a state of panic, but the great thing was that Ye Tingjun came back and landed in AG. The rumors and gossip that were once repressed all rapidly held down the situation. AG thus did not become a mess. Due to Shen Qianshu’s injury, she eventually withdrew from the stone gambling competition, regrettably missing it.

“That can’t be helped too! I’m injured, and I’m too lazy to take part in the competition. It’s not like the stone gambling competition is only held just this once. It’s alright missing out this year.”
However, the rumors she heard when she went back to work were not as nice anymore.
As she had taken a really long leave, her boss actually felt slightly unhappy with her. Luckily, there were Lu Mengxi and Chen Qiuxiang in her group. Thus, the cases they had at hand did not get piled up. However, Zhou Lulu highly regarded the stone gambling competition this time.
“Shen Qianshu, did you not take part in the competition because you were scared of losing to Lu Mengxi?”
Shen Qianshu looked up at Zhou Lulu and scoffed. “I’m scared of losing? Are you kidding me?”
Zhou Lulu looked at her sarcastically and said, “Then why did you not take part in the competition?”
“You should be glad that I did not take part. I heard that there were only eight spots for the individual category this time round. Me not taking part in it means that I have gifted you a spot. You should work hard!”
Zhou Lulu was livid. Shen Qianshu remained focused on doing her tests. Her wound had not fully recovered yet, so it was still really painful. She ate a painkiller and continued to stand for the whole day while doing her tests. She had really taken a very long leave this time. Luckily, their job was also not like the usual 9 am to 5 pm inflexible office jobs; they could enjoy a really long break after successfully completing a big case. Shen Qianshu took on a really urgent case, and after solving her boss’s problems, her boss’s mood then became slightly better. Her boss also felt relieved that Shen Qianshu did not take part in the stone gambling competition. If she did take part and had gotten first place, she would have triumphed over Lu Mengxi. That would also equate to Gubelin losing its face.
When Shen Qianshu did not take part, her boss thought in his heart, This woman really knows the right thing to do!
Regarding her long absence from work, her boss then turned a blind eye to it.
Lu Mengxi knocked on the door and went into her office. She then handed a report to her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Tomorrow is the stone gambling competition. I truly hope that you’ll be able to take part.”
“That’s not necessary. Congratulations, you have one less strong competitor.”
“I don’t care. When I take part in a competition, I depend on my own abilities.”
“Lu Mengxi, this industry is not as big as it seems, but it’s not small too. We will surely meet one day. Why the hurry?”
Lu Mengxi sneered and said, “Is it because of Ye Ling?”
Shen Qianshu looked at her coldly and chose not to answer her. This topic was like a bloody wound to her.
“Ye Ling is dead, but you don’t look sad at all. But it’s no wonder as I heard that he left all his inheritance to your son. Shen Qianshu, you’re really... scheming enough!”
