Chapter 2001: She’s Not Here
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Li Tingshen didn’t expect to be frightened by Ye Qingqiu one day.
Just as he was about to break through the obstacle…
Ye Qingqiu’s scream almost pierced his eardrums.
After that, there was a spasm. Her face seemed to have been drained of blood and was almost transparent. It was terrifyingly pale.
“It hurts… Li Tingshen, are you… trying to kill me?”
Ye Qingqiu’s tears flowed uncontrollably.
A layer of sweat appeared on Li Tingshen’s forehead. He gritted his teeth and looked at her lifeless state. He wanted to leave, but she frowned and shouted.
“It hurts, don’t move…”
Li Tingshen endured it and didn’t move.
He placed his hand on her forehead and lowered his head to press against her. His voice was suppressed and low.
“Does it hurt badly?”
Ye Qingqiu bit her lips and closed her eyes. Her eyelids and eyelashes trembled. She nodded randomly. Perhaps she felt aggrieved because of the pain. She sobbed.
After a while, perhaps because the pain had subsided a little, Ye Qingqiu opened her eyes. The color on her face had returned and her eyes were red.
“Feeling better?”
Ye Qingqiu nodded and snorted. “Does it hurt so much for every girl the first time, or is your technique not good enough?”
Li Tingshen was speechless.
The thought of killing her surged.
After a moment of silence, Ye Qingqiu took a deep breath.
Li Tingshen got up and entered the bathroom.
Ye Qingqiu felt a little uncomfortable. She could still feel the pain clearly.
She lay on the bed, not daring to move.
Seeing Li Tingshen leave, she lay on the bed, worried that this “first time” would ruin his mood.
Gone.
Was he dissatisfied? Angry?
Alone in bed, she let her imagination run wild.
Did he… have to find another woman in the future?
Ye Qingqiu blinked her eyes.
This was a serious matter.
When Li Tingshen came out of the bathroom with a towel, he saw the woman lying on the bed biting her finger with a conflicted expression. Her brows were furrowed.
He frowned. “What are you thinking about?”
Ye Qingqiu immediately turned her head and shook her head when she saw him.
“Nothing much.”
Li Tingshen glanced at her before sitting on the bed.
He reached out and clasped her leg.
Ye Qingqiu snorted in resistance and dodged. “What?”
“Don’t move.”
Li Tingshen’s voice was indifferent. As soon as he finished speaking, he held the towel and bent down.
When the warmth landed on her skin, Ye Qingqiu paused.
What followed was shyness.
“If you don’t have the guts, don’t say such bold words in the future. You’re very straightforward when it comes to giving birth. Do you feel embarrassed just by looking at it now?”
Indeed.
But she couldn’t control herself either.
“The first time…” Her voice was as soft as a mosquito.
“Yes, I’ll give you time to adapt.”
Li Tingshen wiped it carefully. There were obvious red marks on the pure white towel.
After wiping, Li Tingshen examined her carefully before looking up at her. His dark eyes were filled with intense emotions.
“It still hurts?”
“I’m fine.”
Hearing this, Li Tingshen stood up and carried her before placing her on the sofa.
Ye Qingqiu didn’t understand. She lay there and watched as Li Tingshen draped a blanket over her before turning around expressionlessly.
Ye Qingqiu grabbed a corner of his bathrobe with a pitiful expression. “Don’t tell me you’re not satisfied and punished me to sleep on the sofa.”
The corners of Li Tingshen’s lips twitched and he reached out to take her hand. “Yes, I’m indeed not satisfied.”
“Then I… When it doesn’t hurt anymore…”
Ye Qingqiu’s gaze followed Li Tingshen’s figure anxiously.
Things were not harmonious and it was easy for couples to face crises.
“Of course. Do you think you can complete the mission in one go?”
Li Tingshen interrupted her, but he stopped by the bed and bent down to pull the bedsheets off.
Ye Qingqiu blinked and looked at him quietly.
She pulled off the bedsheets, blankets, and pillowcases skillfully and found a new one to put on.
This…
It was something that had nothing to do with him, but he didn’t expect it to be like that.
Yes… virtuous.
He was quite handsome.
When the bed was made, he walked over and carried her to the bed.
Ye Qingqiu smiled and said, “Is the punishment over?”
Li Tingshen glanced at her. “I’ll definitely extend the punishment next time. You sleep first.”
With that, he pulled the blanket over her.
She took the bedsheets that she had changed from the floor into the bathroom.
Not long after, Ye Qingqiu heard the sound of running water from the bathroom.
Fifteen minutes later, Li Tingshen came out of the bathroom.
He took a shower again and saw the woman lying there, staring at him with her beautiful eyes. “Why aren’t you asleep?”
“I’ll wait for you.”
Ye Qingqiu patted the empty seat beside her.
Li Tingshen wasn’t surprised. She was… considered his. It was only right for a legal couple to share a bed.
She lifted the blanket and lay down.
Ye Qingqiu immediately snuggled up.
She laid her head on his arm and wrapped her arms around his waist.
Li Tingshen paused and stared at the top of her head for a few seconds. Then, he gave her his arm and his hand.
Ye Qingqiu had never slept with anyone before.
Li Tingshen woke up before her and she felt it the moment she woke up.
Being disturbed, she couldn’t help but frown.
But soon, the door opened and she was left alone in the room.
Ye Qingqiu only wanted silence and fell asleep again.
After some time, the door opened again.
Hearing the commotion, Ye Qingqiu started to recall what happened last night. She turned around and buried her face in the soft pillow. She opened her eyes lazily and watched as Li Tingshen stood in front of the wardrobe to put on his clothes.
Hearing her turn over, he turned to look at her. “If you’re not feeling well, you can rest at home today. I’ll help you apply for leave.”
“Yes…”
She snorted softly and closed her eyes again. Only when the rustling sounds seemed to stop did she turn her body and look at him lazily.
The man was already dressed neatly. His tall figure, white shirt, and black suit made him look elegant and noble.
Ye Qingqiu sighed inwardly.
As expected of the man she liked.
“Aren’t you going to school today?”
“Obviously.”
Li Tingshen said calmly as he walked to her side and leaned closer to her. His handsome face exuded a clear aura.
His voice was low and sexy as his breath landed on her face.
“Does it still hurt?”
Ye Qingqiu’s ears turned red. “It doesn’t hurt anymore.”
Li Tingshen smirked. “Are you sure?”
“I’m not sure.”
Li Tingshen let out a low laugh. “You know how to admit defeat?”
“A wise man submits to circumstances.”
“Yes, you’re always the most reasonable.”
Ye Qingqiu pursed her lips and pressed his tie.
“Are you going somewhere today?”
“I’m not sure. I’ll probably go to the set to take a look.”
Ye Qingqiu raised an eyebrow as she recalled that he had been busy with these not long ago.
However, she only knew that he had been working on his company recently and was preparing for filming. She didn’t know what drama he was filming.
She had asked him before, but Li Tingshen had never given her an answer.
“Alright then.”
She had never dabbled in this aspect and was not interested.
Li Tingshen grabbed her hand and bent down to kiss her.
“Breakfast is warm on the dining table. Remember to wake up and eat.”
“Did you make it?”
Li Tingshen stuffed her hand under the blanket and stood up. “Do you think there’s a third person in this house?”
“Call me if you need anything. Don’t run around.”
“Yes…”
Ye Qingqiu nodded obediently.
Li Tingshen turned around and left in satisfaction.

Ye Qingqiu had planned to go back to sleep, but she was no longer sleepy. She got out of bed and put on a set of clean pajamas.
Afraid of the pain from last night, she stood up slowly.
It still hurt, but compared to last night, it seemed much better.
Gritting her teeth, she walked carefully to the dining room. There were sandwiches and milk on the table, along with two boiled eggs and a plate of vegetable salad.
Ye Qingqiu placed her hand on the table and took a sip of milk. Then, she picked up a peeled egg and took a bite.
Then, she looked at it with a beautiful smile.
She could almost imagine Li Tingshen cooking breakfast in the kitchen. She could even imagine him peeling eggs for her.
The man who used to be so cold and indifferent, as if he couldn’t warm up no matter how hard she tried, was unexpectedly considerate and gentle after getting married.
Although she had said before that she didn’t expect Li Tingshen to love her, now…
Could she look forward to it?

After breakfast, she sat on the sofa in the living room and turned on the television to find a movie.
At nearly eleven o’clock, Ye Qingqiu received a message.
*
In the afternoon, Xiao Chu called Li Tingshen after knocking on the door for a long time.
“CEO Li, Miss Ye doesn’t seem to be home.”
Li Tingshen was wearing his glasses and editing documents with a cold expression.
Upon hearing Xiao Chu’s words, her eyebrows twitched and she dialed Ye Qingqiu’s number.
The phone rang until it hung up automatically.
After that, she called the apartment, but no one answered.
“Enter the password and enter the house.”
“Okay.”
Xiao Chu entered the password that Li Tingshen had given him. He opened the door and searched the room.
“CEO Li, Miss Ye isn’t in the apartment.”
“Find out where she went.”
Li Tingshen said to Xiao Chu and stood up after hanging up.
She picked up her coat and car keys and left the company.
Ten minutes later, Xiao Chu gave the address to Li Tingshen.
Then, she rushed over.
The address was a high-end restaurant.
Xiao Chu felt that this place suited Eldest Miss Ye’s dining style.
However, it was impossible for him to go to such a restaurant alone.
It should be with another person. Or perhaps, Miss Ye did whatever she wanted and her personality was not easy to figure out. She just felt that the dishes in the restaurant suited her taste. It was not impossible for her to enjoy the delicacies alone.
After thinking about it, there were only two possibilities. However, when he reached the restaurant first and saw Miss Ye, he rubbed his eyes.
If she didn’t believe him, she would think that she was seeing things.
When Li Tingshen arrived, surprise flashed across his cold face.
Xiao Chu walked to his side from the corner and whispered to him,
“CEO Li, I didn’t dare to alarm Miss Ye, but I just asked the boss here. As you can see, Miss Ye is the pianist here… She has been here every afternoon for more than a month. To put it simply, Miss Ye is here to work, but she got an advance yesterday and has to continue working here for a month…”
With that said, Xiao Chu was still surprised. The daughter of the Ye family, who lacked nothing but money, was actually working.
If word got out, others would think that he was crazy.
Li Tingshen looked at the woman who was playing the piano elegantly.
Although she was wearing a mask, he could still recognize her.
No woman would imitate her temperament.
Just by sitting there, she exuded a sense of nobility and arrogance. No one could approach her casually.
Adelina by the water.
It was a beautiful love story that touched the God of Love.
He looked down at his wrist. The needle was moving silently. The pulse under the watch chain was connected to his heart. The rhythm was a little out of control.
