Upon seeing Xia Ye Zhao, Yi Yujian did not mince words, âCousin, all collaborative projects between Yi Corporation and Xia Corporation will be suspended as of today. We have no need for future collaborations!â
Xia Ye Zhao, mired in his own troubles, did not heed Yi Yujianâs words, âI saw the news about Ye Shiting. I will try again to persuade Yanyan.â
âYouâd better be able to convince her, or both the Yeâs and Yiâs will hate her to the bone.â
Having said that, Yi Yujian slammed the car door shut. His anger was apparent to anyone with eyes.
Upon Wang Zili entering the car, likely due to panic and confusion, Yi Yujian drove away from the Xiaâs residence. He didnât get far before crashing into a nearby green belt, finally calling a towing company to remove the car.
While waiting for the towing service, she stood by the smashed car. Thinking about how her husbandâs efforts toward the presidency were ruined not due to incompetence, but because of a failed marriage, the strong woman, burst into tears in her motherâs arms.
The sense of frustration, the anxiety, the grievance of missing out on becoming the First Lady; even Han Chengbei, driving home, couldnât help but stop his car, pressing the horn and calling out, âSister Yi, the car is damaged, are you ok? Shall I take you home?â
As if not wanting to be seen as a laughingstock, Yi Yujian quickly suppressed her emotions, striving to maintain her image. She shook her head, âNo need.â
âHop in, the car broke down in front of my house. If I turn a blind eye, I wonât be able to face Grandpa Yi in the future.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Eventually, Yi Yujian and Wang Zili got into Han Chengbeiâs car.
Ye Xingguang returned to the hospital. On his Weibo, where he usually talks about his regrets, he was spammed by Han Chengbei.
Beibei x5: [Grandpa! Why canât I reach you by phone?]
Beibei x5: [Do you know that Xia Yanyan is trying to steal your man?]
Beibei x5: [I just took your sister-in-law home. She went to the Xiaâs to beg Xia Yanyan to let go. Unfortunately, Xia Yanyan is determined. Your sister-in-law is now as restless as ants on a hot pan, couldnât even drive properly, and crashed into the green belt outside my estate.]
Beibei x5: [Reply ASAP. If Ye Junqing doesnât want you, tell me immediately. I am willing to marry you! Marry you! Marry you!]
Ye Xingguang had no intention of responding to Han Chengbei. After switching phones, she hadnât logged into her usual account but instead used her other one. Seeing Han Chengbei mention her sister-in-law, she couldnât ignore it.
RegretDealer: [What happened to my sister-in-law?]
Beibei x6: [Finally replied. I thought you were dead! Well, what can happen? The dream of becoming the First Lady vanished in an instant. Even the most unflappable woman canât keep it together. Tell me where you are, grandpa?]
Ye Xingguang didnât want to reveal her location and ignored Han Chengbei. Thinking about how her innocent sister-in-law got dragged into this, she felt incredibly frustrated.
She was in the hospital room, sitting by her fatherâs bedside as he received IV fluids, keeping an eye on her phone to stay updated.
So far, no one knows Ye Shiting lost his presidential candidacy because Ye Junqing refused to marry Xia Yanyan. The public believes it was due to evidence implicating Ye Shiting as the mastermind behind the gas station explosion, therefore, online criticism of Ye Shiting is everywhere.
Surely, other presidential candidates were fanning these flames.
However, Ye Shiting could not find the evidence to clear his name, nor did he publicise the real reason he was disqualifiedâ¦
Then, to her surprise, she came across a tweet from a major gossiper, unrelated to Ye Shiting but concerning her.
