Chapter 217 There is news
After finishing his barbecue, Qin Yiche showed no intention of returning to his room, remaining sprawled on the sofa, looking utterly dejected.
Lin Ling ate potato chips, hesitated several times before finally asking, "Qin Yiche, are you alright?"
Qin Yiche, who had been leaning back on the sofa with his eyes closed, slowly opened them and replied, "It's nothing~"
Lin Ling pouted and said nothing more.
After finishing her potato chips, she tidied up the coffee table and prepared to go back to her room.
"Are you going to keep watching TV? I'm going to sleep." She stood up and asked Qin Yiche.
Qin Yiche remained lying there with his eyes closed, motionless, and said, "Go to sleep, the TV is on."
Upon hearing his words, Lin Ling turned and went back to her room.
She took a shower early and went straight to bed after returning to her room. She had a short advertisement to shoot the next day, so she didn't dare to stay up too late and affect her work.
I didn't expect that the more I tried to go to bed early, the less I could fall asleep, and I kept peeking through the crack under the door at the living room lights still on.
"Why isn't Qin Yiche going to sleep yet?" Lin Ling muttered under her breath after tossing and turning several times.
Then I rolled over again, facing the door and the bay window, forcing myself to fall asleep quickly, otherwise my makeup wouldn't look good tomorrow.
I lay there with my eyes closed for another twenty minutes, but I still couldn't fall asleep.
Unable to sleep, Lin Ling wanted to play on her phone, so she picked it up from the bedside table, unlocked it, and started watching short videos.
Time always slips away silently when you're scrolling through your phone. When Lin Ling felt a little sleepy, yawned, and was about to fall asleep again, she realized it was almost one o'clock.
She quickly put down her phone, grabbed her cup, and prepared to go to sleep.
I thought to myself: I'm doomed, I'm doomed, I definitely won't be able to get up tomorrow.
I glanced up and noticed the living room light was still on.
Qin Yiche is still awake?!
Lin Ling was a little worried, but in the end she still lifted the covers and got out of bed.
She tiptoed to the door of the room and secretly listened to the sounds outside. She could still faintly hear the sound of the television.
Lin Ling frowned slightly, then finally turned the doorknob and went out.
in the living room.
Qin Yiche was still in the same position as Lin Ling had been when she went back to her room, lying on the sofa with her eyes closed, seemingly truly asleep. A childish cartoon was playing on the television.
Lin Ling took the remote and turned off the TV first. Then she walked to Qin Yiche's side, bent down, and whispered, "Qin Yiche, Qin Yiche."
She called out twice, but the person on the sofa did not respond; they were fast asleep.
I wasn't planning on getting involved, but then I thought, no matter what, he's my 'sugar daddy,' what if he catches a cold while sleeping here!
Lin Ling decided to go all the way and helped Qin Yiche into the room.
She sat down next to Qin Yiche first, helped him up, and then put one hand on her shoulder. Qin Yiche leaned against Lin Ling, his breath tickling and warming her neck...
Lin Ling felt her heartbeat getting louder; she could hear a thumping sound in her chest.
She could see Qin Yiche's profile with just a slight tilt of her head. His fair and serene face under the light, his curled eyelashes, and his thick eyebrows made him truly handsome.
Qin Yiche's looks were exactly what Lin Ling wanted.
However... she never had any illusions, nor dared to have any.
Qin Yiche's family background is vastly different from hers; they are not a good match. Especially after meeting Qin Yiche's parents last time, the gap between the rich and poor in this world became even more apparent.
Therefore, she has always been very clear-headed and aware of her own limitations. She knows that her family is too high a standard for someone from a humble background like hers.
She's not some celestial beauty; she comes from an ordinary family and is from out of town—it's like she has all the advantages stacked up.
There's absolutely no possibility between her and Qin Yiche!
Lin Ling took a deep breath, trying to steady her racing heart and calm it down. Then, with a burst of strength, she tried to help Qin Yiche to his feet. However, she had overestimated herself; she simply couldn't lift the sleeping Qin Yiche, let alone take him back to his room to sleep.
Lin Ling, panting, gave up on the idea of helping him back to his room and decided to let Qin Yiche sleep on the sofa.
After laying him down on the sofa, she went to Qin Yiche's room and took out the blanket from his bed. She bent down and carefully covered Qin Yiche with the blanket. After covering him with the blanket, she stood up and went back to sleep.
Suddenly, the person lying on the sofa opened their eyes and grabbed Lin Ling's wrist tightly, startling Lin Ling.
"Ouch!" she exclaimed instinctively.
Qin Yiche's sharp gaze softened, and he released her hand, saying, "Sorry~"
Lin Ling raised her wrist and saw that it was all red.
Now that the person was awake, she didn't need to worry about them anymore. "You're awake, so go back to your room and sleep. I'm going back to my room too."
After saying that, Lin Ling turned around and walked towards her room without looking back.
Qin Yiche watched her departing figure, finally snapping back to reality with the sound of the door slamming shut.
He looked down at the blanket covering him, paused for a moment, then got up from the sofa, grabbed the blanket, turned off the light, and went back to his room.

Moze assigned K and J to investigate his background, and they quickly received a response.
J replied to him first.
The reason why Qin Heng and his wife gave birth prematurely in Jiangcheng was because Mrs. Qin was involved in a minor car accident while out and about, which is why she was rushed to the hospital.
However, Madam Qin came to her parents' home in Jiangcheng to recuperate during her pregnancy. Originally, Qin Heng came to pick her up and take her back to Gangcheng to prepare for childbirth, but unexpectedly, she was in a car accident, which is why she gave birth in a small clinic in Jiangcheng.
However, there was no surveillance footage at the scene of the accident, and the other vehicle was without license plates, so there was no further information about the accident. J had to personally go to that small town in Jiangcheng to inquire and obtain the information.
Another crucial piece of information is that Qin Heng and his wife never saw the child who was told he had died at birth, nor did anyone else. It was only said that the hospital doctors disposed of the child's body, but there were no records of how it was disposed of, and no trace could be found.
The last strange thing is that the doctor who performed the surgery on Madam Qin resigned from the hospital. Later, he somehow got a large sum of money, bought a factory and started his own business. He ran the factory until his death, and after his death, his son took over its management.
