Fourth Master sneaked into Qiao Ying's room and emptied Qiao Ying's backpack, successfully finding his own gift.
When the two entered, they saw things scattered all over the floor.
With his new ball in his mouth, Fourth Master happily ran to Qiao Ying, his tail wagging like an electric fan.
Qin Hanyue glanced at the ball Fourth Master had left on the ground, then looked at Qiao Ying squatting down playing with the dog.
He thought to himself: Even the dog has a gift.
He silently went to pick up Qiao Ying's backpack for her and put the things scattered on the ground back into the bag one by one. Among them was a black card.
There were only a few such cards in the whole world. Qiao Ying having one didn't surprise Qin Hanyue too much. It was just that she would leave a card like this loosely in her bag—that was so like her.
Qin Hanyue continued cleaning up when he suddenly saw two small books.
These were medical qualification certificates?
Two of them? Qin Hanyue’s first reaction was that one of them was for acupuncture certification. But the next second, he realized the two medical qualification certificates were identical.
Qin Hanyue was puzzled. He picked up the two medical qualification certificates and opened one of them. Enclosed inside was a notarized document.
The identity information in the small book was all Qiao Ying’s.
So she went to Country M to get this medical qualification certificate?
Qin Hanyue lightly stroked the photo of the girl with his fingertips, his eyes gentle.
Then he opened the other book.
When he saw the identity information inside, Qin Hanyue was shocked. The small photo was of a girl with exquisite eyebrows and eyes, with an innate allure peeking through her cold demeanor. It was a natural charm.
The name column clearly read:
Seely.
Dr. Seely?!
What Qin Hanyue was holding turned out to be the medical license of the world's number one surgeon, the mysterious genius doctor Seely.
In Qiao Ying's bag.
The notarized document was also Dr. Seely's.
The two licenses had completely different faces in the photos, but their temperament and expression were inexplicably similar.
Qin Hanyue looked up at the girl squatting on the ground playing with the dog.
Sensing something, Qiao Ying also quickly glanced over at him.
Qiao Ying saw the small book Qin Hanyue was holding. She then looked up to meet Qin Hanyue's eyes. She was composed, stroking Fourth Master's head absently, not revealing any emotion.
After a moment of eye contact, Qin Hanyue put everything back in Qiao Ying's bag, then picked up the bag and walked her out.
She didn't say anything, and neither did he.
Qin Hanyue personally drove Qiao Ying and the others back.
Qiao Ying had taken a red eye flight and traveled so far that as soon as she got in the car, she was exhausted and fell asleep leaning on Qin Hanyue's shoulder.
Qin Hanyue was more than happy to be her pillow, and took the opportunity to hold one of Qiao Ying's hands in his own larger one.
He hadn't realized until now how soft a girl's hands could be.
Back at Qiao Ying’s villa,
Qiao Ying took a shower upstairs then immediately went to sleep.
With Qiao Ying asleep, Qin Hanyue didn't feel right staying there either. Especially seeing Qiao Yi and Sack were clearly more comfortable here than at his place.
Not to mention Qiao Ying's dog.
Since moving into Qin Hanyue’s place, His Highness the dog had never given him a kind look. Now he was frolicking around the house.
Considerate Qiao Yi saw Qin Hanyue out: "Goodbye, Brother Qin."
The robot Qiao Yi followed: "Goodbye, Brother Qin."
That night,
After waking up from her nap, Qiao Ying drove to Xiao He’s residence.
While Qiao Ying was still with the Cheng family in Southeast Asia, she had received a call from Principal Zhang telling her about Xiao He's situation.
It was pretty bad.
He was skipping classes from time to time, and even when he did go to school, his mental state was very poor. Principal Zhang even suspected Xiao He was so devastated that he had learned bad habits from those social figures and gotten addicted to some illegal substances, which explained his haggard appearance.
Qiao Ying had been in contact with Xiao He this whole time, though neither of them were very talkative.
Xiao He's door wasn't closed properly. The lock was damaged so it could only be shut tightly if you really forced it. Usually it just stayed slightly ajar.
From inside the house came the sound of bottles rolling.
Qiao Ying pushed open the door and walked all the way into the back room. She saw Xiao He leaning against the bed, sitting dejectedly on the floor surrounded by the smell of alcohol.
Besides the bottles on the floor, there was also a pile of study materials.
On one hand trying to change, on the other still falling into depravity.
Xiao He was clearly drunk. Seeing Qiao Ying appear, he didn't react for a long time until Qiao Ying walked right in front of him and kicked a bottle aside. The noise seemed to sober him up a little.
Now more clear-headed, Xiao He felt ashamed.
Qiao Ying said, "You still have shame left, so you're not completely hopeless."
Xiao He struggled to get up but couldn't muster any strength.
Qiao Ying said, "What's the difference between you and your drunkard dad now?" Even so, she helped him get up.
She saw sleeping pills on the bedside table.
Qiao Ying's words seemed to sting Xiao He.
Leaning against the bed, he didn't speak for a long time.
Qiao Ying said, "Wash up and sleep early. Make up however many classes you missed tomorrow at my place. Don't forget you still owe me five years. "
Qiao Ying turned to leave after finishing.
But she was suddenly grabbed by the hand by Xiao He.
Qiao Ying frowned but didn't jerk her hand away.
Xiao He said hoarsely, "You're helping me like this because of your friend, because of my brother."
Qiao Ying replied, "Do you have to be so melodramatic?"
Xiao He looked at her silently for a moment, then asked again, "Just got back today?" Perhaps because he was drunk, his tone wasn't as cold as usual, or perhaps other emotions were gradually mixed in.
Qiao Ying said, "Mm."
Having gotten an answer, Xiao He fell silent again, his gaze at Qiao Ying gradually becoming more complicated.
Then he let go of her hand, "I'll come find you tomorrow, to make up classes."
The next day,
Having tidied himself up, Xiao He came with his textbooks and laptop.
The one who opened the door for him was Bai Xiao, followed by a foreigner, then a boy about his age who looked a bit young, and finally a robot behind them.
Xiao He thought he had the wrong place.
Seeing Xiao He, Qiao Yi felt he looked a bit familiar.
Qiao Yi naturally knew about the incident where Qiao Ying taught the unscrupulous car owner a lesson which had rocked the whole nation.
Before he could recognize Xiao He,
Fourth Master barked at Xiao He, clearly recognizing him.
Qiao Ying's voice came from inside the villa, "My classmate."
That seemed to stop Bai Xiao from questioning.
Xiao He didn't expect it to be so lively. He glanced at Qiao Ying.
Qiao Ying said, "My brother, two of my friends."
That counted as an introduction.
Before they knew it, the school term started.
Qiao Ying brought Qiao Yi to enroll at Beijing University.
The two siblings successfully refreshed the Beijing University forums.
After getting Qiao Yi registered, Qiao Ying dropped him off at the entrance of the male dormitory building. Freshmen had evening self-study, so Qiao Ying had Qiao Yi live on campus.
Although disappointed that he couldn't live and commute to school together with Qiao Ying, Qiao Yi obediently accepted Qiao Ying's arrangement.
Qiao Ying told him, "Give me a little more time. Once I resolve everything, I'll take you travelling."
Qiao Yi said, "Okay."
Qiao Yi didn't know what powerful figure Qiao Ying had offended, that even Brother Qin seemingly couldn't resolve it.
All he could do was try his best not to drag Qiao Ying down, so that what happened last time wouldn't recur—him getting kidnapped, leading to Sack getting injured and Qiao Ying losing her eyesight. During that time staying at the Qins', he hadn't stepped a foot out their front door.
Now Qiao Yi was at the same school as him, right under his watch. Qiao Ying felt much more at ease.
That night,
Huo Chengdong rang the doorbell of Qiao Ying's villa.
"Sis Ying, where's my car?" Huo Chengdong's eyes shone.
Over summer vacation, Huo Chengdong had been dragged overseas on vacation by his mother. He had tried to sneak back several times just to see his car, but never succeeded.
He finally regained his freedom upon starting school. As soon as he got off the plane, he came straight here.
"Luckily I'm not asleep yet, otherwise I'd have to wait until the Qingming Festival to burn some paper offerings for your car." Saying so, Qiao Ying led him to the garage.
Fourth Master sneaked into Qiao Ying's room and emptied Qiao Ying's backpack, successfully finding his own gift.
When the two entered, they saw things scattered all over the floor.
With his new ball in his mouth, Fourth Master happily ran to Qiao Ying, his tail wagging like an electric fan.
