Tenderness of Qin Qinghan

Watching Qin Qinghan crying, Ye Fengwu felt distressed. He wanted to pull Qin Qinghan into his arms, but she had turned her body away.

"I know you care about Jing Si, and I really hope you are Jing Si's biological father, but you are not. You cannot understand how difficult it has been for me to raise a child alone."

Over the years, not only did Qin Qinghan have to raise Jing Si alone, but she also endured much disapproval and ridicule. She worked tirelessly for the Qin Group, but was only met with more oppression.

Yet she persevered through it all, because she had to live, to live for Jing Si.

"I'm sorry..." Words filled with remorse came from Ye Fengwu's mouth. He held Qin Qinghan's somewhat cold hand and gently said, "From today on, I am Jing Si's father. I won't let anything happen to Jing Si. I promise you, no matter the cost, I will make sure you see Jing Si grow into a beautiful young lady."

Hearing this, Qin Qinghan's crying seemed to stop. She looked at Ye Fengwu with complex emotions. No matter who he was or whether he could fulfill his promise, this assurance somehow moved Qin Qinghan.

After a long while, Qin Qinghan wiped away her tears, but they kept flowing. She stared misty-eyed at Ye Fengwu and said earnestly, "I hope...I really hope you can be Jing Si's father. But you...but I heard you kidnapped a woman. If...if you intend to keep doing illegal things, I...I really cannot be with you."

Hearing this, Ye Fengwu's expression darkened. He cursed inwardly, so Qin Qinghan must have heard about this from Luo Yihuang's assistant.

But soon Ye Fengwu sincerely said, "When did this happen? I was away on a business trip for two days, how could I have done such a thing?"

Yet Qin Qinghan sadly shook her head. "I know you have many secrets. I could even ignore them, but...I hope you won't keep lying to me. You know, I can sense every time you lie."

Hearing this, Ye Fengwu's old face flushed red. Could he have some tell when lying? He would definitely have to fix this.

Then, Ye Fengwu said earnestly, "Qinghan, I do have things I'm keeping from you, but they won't hurt you. I promise, when the time is right, I will tell you everything."

But Qin Qinghan still shook her head sadly. She did not know when her previous wariness of Ye Fengwu had completely disappeared, replaced by a sense of care and reliance.

After a long while, she said bitterly, "I'm giving you a chance, and also giving myself a chance. But I cannot take the risk, because...I'm really relying on you more and more. If, if you can't live an honest life, and something happens, I...I really won't have the courage to go back to my previous life."

Saying so, Qin Qinghan wept uncontrollably again. Ever since Ye Fengwu barged into her world, her state of mind had become more and more tranquil, even seeing a glimmer of hope through her previous despair.

So she no longer had the courage to face that hopeless life again. Since there was no guarantee, why not end this relationship before she completely fell in love with him?

Qin Qinghan clearly wanted to kick Ye Fengwu out again. Ye Fengwu felt bitter, and wanted to tell Qin Qinghan everything, but he also didn't dare take the risk.

If Qin Qinghan truly hated him to the bone, he would have no chance of contacting her and her daughter again.

After a long while, Ye Fengwu gritted his teeth and suddenly gripped Qin Qinghan's hands tightly. Shamelessly he said, "I'm not leaving. You've kicked me out once already. This time, no matter what you say, I won't leave. You're my wife, Jing Si is my daughter, no one can separate us, not even you."

As he spoke, Ye Fengwu suddenly pulled Qin Qinghan into his embrace, trying to move her with his warm hug.

But clearly Ye Fengwu overestimated himself and underestimated Qin Qinghan. She struggled violently, slapping Ye Fengwu's back repeatedly with both hands.

"Let go of me!"

Ow!

Each of Qin Qinghan's blows landed on Ye Fengwu's wounds. He could feel them tearing open, making him grimace in pain and inhale sharply.

Qin Qinghan also seemed to notice Ye Fengwu's distorted face, recalling what Jing Si had said earlier. He...really was injured?

Unintentionally, concern and guilt appeared in Qin Qinghan's eyes. She urgently said, "You...take off your shirt. I have a first-aid kit at home."

Saying so, Qin Qinghan suddenly ran into the bedroom, then came out carrying a first-aid kit to Ye Fengwu.

By now, Ye Fengwu had taken off his coat, revealing the blood-stained white shirt underneath.

In that instant, tears welled up in Qin Qinghan's eyes. She felt a vague pain in her heart. Was she...hurting for him?

Now Qin Qinghan seemed to have forgotten how he got injured, whether he really kidnapped a woman. Because she was truly worried.

As Ye Fengwu unbuttoned his shirt, Qin Qinghan tremblingly helped him take it off. Her actions were extremely gentle and careful.

Feeling Qin Qinghan's tenderness behind him, Ye Fengwu felt these wounds were worth it. It looked like he would need to find opportunities to get injured more in the future. The moment this thought appeared, Ye Fengwu suddenly felt more twisted.

At this time, Qin Qinghan was stunned, because Ye Fengwu's entire back was wrapped in bandages, blood already soaking through the gauze.

"I'm...I'm sorry." Qin Qinghan covered her mouth and cried out. If not for her hitting him, his wounds wouldn't have opened up.

Ye Fengwu turned to look at Qin Qinghan, only to see an extremely pained expression. Hot tears rolled down her cheeks.

At this moment, Ye Fengwu felt ashamed of his earlier thoughts again. So he swore he would be extra careful from now on, never letting Qin Qinghan hurt like this again.

Unintentionally, Ye Fengwu wiped Qin Qinghan's tears and gently said, "Dear, if you don't bandage me soon, I really will die from blood loss."

This time, Qin Qinghan did not avoid Ye Fengwu's hand wiping her tears. Instead she hurriedly nodded.

Ye Fengwu lay on the sofa and Qin Qinghan carefully cut away all his bandages with scissors. With just one look, five bloody gashes appeared before Qin Qinghan's eyes.

The wounds weren't too deep, but each was over 20 centimeters long.

Yet what pained Qin Qinghan even more were the countless scars on his broad, sturdy back. Some seemed to be from knives, while most were bullet wounds.

Heavens, what had he gone through? He was jailed at 18 and had only gotten out recently. Could these scars all be from prison? Or were they from before 18?

But now was not the time to ponder this. Ye Fengwu's wounds were still bleeding.

So Qin Qinghan gently said, "Bear with it a little, it may hurt."

Ye Fengwu smiled. "I don't feel pain, only happiness."

Qin Qinghan was in no mood for sweet talk. She opened a bottle of disinfectant and lightly sprinkled it on Ye Fengwu's wounds.

Ye Fengwu's expression remained calm. This little pain was truly nothing to him.

After cleaning the wounds again and stopping the bleeding, Qin Qinghan bandaged Ye Fengwu anew.

Suddenly, Qin Qinghan's hands holding the bandages shook violently, and his eyes were fixed on the back of Ye Fengwu's neck, where there was a purple-black birthmark, emanating a chilling aura that made people's scalp tingle.

The shape of it was clearly the pictograph of the word "ghost".

Qin Qinghan was too familiar with the shape of this birthmark, because Jing Si's arm also had such a birthmark, and the birthmarks on Ye Fengwu and Jing Si were...exactly the same.

"How is this...possible." Qin Qinghan was extremely shocked, how could there be two people in this world with such similar birthmarks.
