CHAPTER 60: CHAPTER 60: YOU DON’T BEHAVE

Ling Tianyou was angry, the kind of anger that can’t be appeased.

When Gu Ningyue returned to her ward with Ji Qianqian, Ling Tianyou didn’t even glance at her, sitting alone by the bed, lost in his thoughts.

"Don’t be angry, let me explain to you," Gu Ningyue approached Ling Tianyou: "I couldn’t sleep last night, so I wanted to go for a walk, and then I met her. Her mind isn’t quite right, and some strange people were pestering her, and then..."

"And then you played the hero again and brought her back?" Ling Tianyou narrowed his eyes, looking serious: "Did it get physical?"

Gu Ningyue quickly shook her head: "No, no, definitely not this time! Really!"

After confirming she wasn’t lying, Ling Tianyou’s expression softened a bit: "So, how do you plan to handle her?"

Ling Tianyou’s gaze clearly conveyed "if you dare say you’re keeping her, I’ll kill you," so Gu Ningyue immediately showed her stance: "She’s from Y City, named Ji Qianqian. Can you check where her family is?"

"Ji Qianqian?" Ling Tianyou suddenly said: "Sounds a bit familiar."

Gu Ningyue looked at Ji Qianqian and asked: "Do you know her?"

Ling Tianyou touched his chin, "She looks a bit familiar, but I can’t remember where I’ve seen her. However..."

"However what?" Gu Ningyue was somewhat surprised.

Ling Tianyou stood up, suddenly wrapped Gu Ningyue’s waist: "During your hospital stay, you’re so unruly, I need to punish you."

Gu Ningyue’s face turned red, "I had no choice, I’m usually so obedient!"

"Really?" Ling Tianyou looked at her lightly pink lips, desire swirling inside: "I don’t think you’re obedient."

Before the words were finished, their lips met, leaving Gu Ningyue powerless to resist.

"Mm..."

Ji Qianqian tilted her head, looking at the embracing couple, her eyes filled with confusion: "Sister, sister, what are you doing?" Gu Ningyue immediately reacted and pushed against Ling Tianyou’s chest: "Stop it, someone’s here!"

Her cheeks, blushing like a tempting forbidden fruit, made Ling Tianyou unable to resist stealing another kiss at her lips: "Alright."

Just at this moment, the assistant knocked and entered, surprised to see a third person in the room: "President Ling, Young Madam, who is this?"

Ling Tianyou turned around, glanced at the items in his assistant’s hand: "Go out and buy some breakfast!"

The assistant responded, his gaze sweeping past Ji Qianqian, a hint of amazement in his eyes.

If the Young Madam is an exuberant, blooming rose, then she’s a pear blossom laden with drops of water after the rain.

Just looking at her makes people want to protect her tenderly.

Unexpectedly, there’s such a beauty in this world.

Once the assistant left, Gu Ningyue turned to Ji Qianqian and asked: "Qianqian, are you hungry? Do you remember where your home is?"

Ji Qianqian shook her head, "Sister, Qianqian wants something to eat."

Seeing this, Ling Tianyou chuckled, "Now you regret it? Beg me, and I might help you."

Gu Ningyue drew closer to him, putting on a puppy-like face: "Honey, please～"

Her voice unusually sweet and clingy, Ling Tianyou shivered: "Speak properly."

Gu Ningyue’s voice, flirtatious to a skin-crawling degree, was better left unsaid.

"..." Gu Ningyue rolled her eyes, not realizing Ling Tianyou had so many demands: "Honey, please, help me find out where her home is?"

Now, away from home and without a computer, there’s no way to check Ji Qianqian’s information online, so she could only rely on Ling Tianyou.

Ling Tianyou patted her head: "Call me this way in the future, understood?"

Gu Ningyue responded, "Quickly check her address..."

Ling Tianyou looked at her and casually took out his phone to make a call: "Check out the background of Ji Qianqian in Y City. Get back to me within two hours."

After a while, a nurse came in to perform a check on Gu Ningyue, smiling and complimenting as she saw Ji Qianqian obediently eating beside her: "What a pretty girl."

Ji Qianqian looked up at the nurse and then quickly lowered her head again. For some reason, Gu Ningyue sensed Ji Qianqian’s fear.

Recalling those words she heard yesterday, Gu Ningyue’s gaze towards the nurse changed: "Have you seen her before?"

The nurse shook her head, "Oh! Actually, no."

Gu Ningyue turned her gaze to Ling Tianyou, who got the hint and asked the nurse’s name.

Then inquired about Gu Ningyue’s injuries, no longer speaking.

Once the nurse left, Ji Qianqian had finished eating: "Sister, Qianqian is full and wants to go home."

Gu Ningyue sighed, she wanted Ji Qianqian to go home too, but could only wait for now.

"Be good, Qianqian, wait a little. Soon sister will take Qianqian home." She comforted Ji Qianqian, gently stroking her long hair, appearing very tender.

Ling Tianyou, somewhat bitter: "Why don’t you treat me this gently?"

Though he treated her so well, he’d never noticed such gentle words directed at him.

Gu Ningyue paused her hand, suddenly laughed: "Is your mind troubled too?"

Confounded by humanity, was Ling Tianyou comparing himself with someone whose mind wasn’t right?

Ling Tianyou suddenly squinted his eyes, "Say that again?"

Gu Ningyue knew she’d said the wrong words, shrank her neck and cautiously said: "What I mean is, isn’t Ji Qianqian’s mind not quite right! There’s no need to compare yourself with her."

"I’m not feeling very good now," Ling Tianyou, arms crossed, leaned against the window: "I think you should treat me more gently."

Gu Ningyue glanced at her own injured hand, "As a patient, taking care of both of you, don’t you think it’s a bit cruel?"

Ling Tianyou raised an eyebrow: "That’s not my responsibility, Ji Qianqian is brought back by you. If you make me unhappy, who is to blame?"

Gu Ningyue was stumped, indeed! All this was her fault.

No wonder her curiosity yesterday led her to disregard Mr. Chen’s advice and go out!

Seeing her silence, Ling Tianyou curved his lips.

After an indeterminate amount of time, Ling Tianyou received a call from the other side and said to Gu Ningyue, who was on the bed watching cartoons with Ji Qianqian: "You’ve found a treasure!"

Gu Ningyue’s eyes lit up: "Is she some rich daughter from Y City?"

Ling Tianyou shook his head: "She’s Lu Qingqing’s sister."

Gu Ningyue was startled: "A relative?"

Qingqing and Qianqian, quite a match.

"Lu Qingqing’s neighbor, her parents passed away early." Ling Tianyou explained: "Lu Qingqing has been with her since childhood, treats her well, sees her as a sister. She even prepared a house for her and hired a nanny in Y City. But not long ago, Ji Qianqian went missing while out with the nanny."

"So, Lu Qingqing hasn’t returned to A City?" Gu Ningyue asked.

Ling Tianyou nodded, "That’s right."
