Chapter 4 - She Might as Well Give Up...

The computer was turned on and a few documents were scattered on the floor.

Ye Qing Xin stared before the desk and stared at the computer for a long time. Her eyes were wide and her complexion paled.

A few hours ago, Ye Qing Xin had seen the documents that Lawyer An had sent to her and she was very sure that the contract was drawn. Her signature was at the bottom of the page along with her fingerprints.

However, this time, the contents of the contract have changed.

Lawyer An could not explain what happened, but the contract in Ye Qing Xin's hand had become the contract that her father had sent to her that night.

Ye Qing Xin closed her eyes tightly, hoping that everything in front of her would change the moment she opened her eyes again.

However, no matter how many times she tried this trick, the documents in front of her remained the same. Nothing seemed to change even though Ye Qing Xin has been staring at the file for a long time.

Her body started to shiver.

Lawyer An might not know what happened, but Ye Qing Xin understood this very well.

It was the force again.

That thing kept on making her do things that she did not want and changing things that she had made.

After all, this would not be the first time that something like this had happened.

Each time that she was thinking of doing something different, some kind of force would change it back for her. Ye Qing Xin did not want to make this bad decision. However, it was this force that made it for her.

Ye Qing Xin could not help but chuckle.

Her body became a little soft. Ye Qing Xin leaned back and fell on the swiveling chair behind her. Her expression looked restless.

At this time, Ye Qing Xin wondered if she should just give in and follow what fate had assigned for her. It seemed that everything she wanted to do seemed was useless. She might as well give up...

Perhaps, even if she did not do anything, everything around her would still move in the direction this force wanted it to happen.

Ye Qing Xin left her office absentmindedly.

Her legs led her to the rooftop. She pushed the door open and the cold night wind blew to her face. At this time, the city night light looked quite pretty. However, Ye Qing Xin was not in the mood to admire them.

She stood at the corner to watch the scenery before her, hoping that it would help her mind to stay sober.

Bang!

The loud sound snapped her out of her trance.

Ye Qing Xin had already expected that someone would be looking for her. However, she had never thought that they would move very quickly.

She turned around slowly, expecting to see her Uncle Song Kai with a disappointed look on his face, asking her why would she give her shares and the company to her father.

To her surprise, the person who stood in front of her was Yang Yi. The person that she had loved once. Behind him were two guards that often followed him around.

It puzzled her to see their appearance in front of her.

"Ye Qing Xin! Are you still a human?" Yang Yi spat angrily when he saw her. "It's enough that you let your father take over the company. But why do you want to harm Qiao Qiao again?"

His accusation startled her. "What?"

"Don't play dumb with me!" Yang Yi narrowed his eyes angrily at her. "Qiao Qiao was kidnapped and almost lost her life. It was you!"

Her expression darkened. "It was not me." Ye Qing Xin refused to take credit for something that she did not do. "Don't slender me!"

Yang Yi sneered. "Lawyer An had already testified against you. He said that it was you that let him hire a few thugs to kidnap Qiao Qiao."

"I didn't." She had never asked Lawyer An to do anything. How can that person accuse her? This doesn't make sense.

Her heartbeat accelerated. Ye Qing Xin's instinct was telling her that it was the work of that force again.

"Ye Qing Xin, Qiao Qiao has already let you go once. But don't think that I will let you go for the second time." Yang Yi walked over to her side and grabbed her hand. "If Qiao QIao did not survive this, I won't let you survive either."

Her eyes widened in shock. "What happened to Song Nan Qiao?"

Yang Yi did not answer, but instead, continued to stare at her face for a long time.

Just now, Uncle Song called to say that Qiao Qiao's life or death was not guaranteed. Even though Song Nan Qiao was always lenient towards her cousin, Yang Yi did not plan to let Ye Qing Xin go.

If his girlfriend died, then, Ye Qing Xin will also die.

Meanwhile, Ye Qing Xin has been studying Yang Yi's expression. Seeing the cold look on Yang Yi's face told her that Song Nan Qiao's situation should be quite bad.

Ye Qing Xin took a step back. "Impossible."

Yang Yi sneered, thinking that Ye Qing Xin was probably going to play some tricks on him again.

Ye Qing Xin gathered her thoughts and tried to run out. She wanted to go and look at her cousin to see if she was still well.

However, Yang Yi misunderstood that she was going to run away again.

"Ye Qing Xin, you are not going to run!" Yang Yi gave Ye Qing Xin's arm a little tug. The force made her stagger a few steps backward until it hit the railing behind her.

Unfortunately, the railing was already a little rusty. The railing creaked as her body collided against it.

Then, she was in the air.

Ye Qing Xin's eyes widened when she realized that she was falling from the rooftop.

With a crash, her body fell on top of a sedan. The impact on her head was too painful, causing her body to feel sore. Blood dripped out, turning her body weak.

The last thing she saw before she closed her eyes was the bright light from the lamp post above her head.
