Yi Yujian smoothed her hair: âDonât bring it up.â
After she came home that day, she was lectured by Ye Shiting for half an hour. Even now, she trembled at the memory of how angry he had been.
Yi Yujian spoke seriously: âMy sister-in-law probably doesnât know whatâs going on yet. If she hears about my younger brother being sentenced, I imagine sheâll be frantic. Who among you is going to go to the hospital and calm her down?â
Fu Zhuo hesitated for a moment, and then raised his hand: âIâll go.â
âForget it,â Yi Yujian said.
A lump rose in Fu Zhuoâs throat, blocking his words: ââ¦â
Yi Yujian said: âMy younger brother went out of his way to warn you to stay away from my sister-in-law. What have you done to make him so wary of you?â
Fu Zhuo retorted righteously: âBut what I said wasnât wrong. After such a big incident, Miss Ye didnât do anything. She wasnât even present for the court session today. Donât you find her heartless?â
At these words, everyone in the car fell silent.
Yi Yujian picked up her handbag and swatted Fu Zhuo on the head: âShut up! What do you expect my sister-in-law to do? Should she voluntarily leave my younger brother, persuade him to marry Xia Yanyan at the expense of herself? Is that what you want to see? Besides, Iâm also blocking you out!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
However, in the hearts of the elders, if Miss Ye were to do that, it would indeed prove her love for Ye Junqing.
Now, all we can say is that she doesnât love him.
After all, she has only been with him for slightly more than a month, itâs normal not to have feelings. The elders have no time to enquire further on this matter.
Tang Xiao said: âAny girl whoâs willing to rush through fire to save Brother Ting, and saves our foster parents in the sea, that kind of loyalty and courage, deserves Junqing more than Xia Yanyan does. Even I would hesitate to give up on a girl like her. Stop expecting too much, itâs already hard enough being human. We could spend our time more productively!â
Yi Yujian said: âNow, thatâs human talk from Tang Xiao! If you use these high expectations to measure me, Iâm telling you, Iâll divorce your eldest brother any minute, I wonât serve you nitpicky men.â
Fu Zhuo did a self-review: âSister Yi, donât be mad, I meant no harm. As long as Brother Qing likes it, I fully support him. How about we let Mo Fei go? Mo Feiâs brother, Xiao Mi Hu, has a good relationship with Miss Ye.â
âThen Mo Fei, you go,â Yi Yujian said.
Mo Fei nodded: âI will have Mi Hu visit the sister-in-law at the hospital later.â
â¦
At this moment, Ye Xingguang was on the brink of tears. Why wouldnât Yanbei believe her when she said she was a mermaid?
Not only did Yanbei not believe her, but he also told Ye Shiting to take her away.
Before she set out to find Yanbei, the visitor Yanbei met was Ye Shiting!
She was in the presidentâs office looking for Yanbei, but Ye Shiting hadnât left, he was still in the office.
She watched the live stream of Ye Junqingâs trial in the presidentâs office, together with Ye Shiting and Yanbei.
This live stream was only accessible to the presidential palace, nowhere else!
She watched as Ye Junqingâs brothers stormed out in anger one after another, as the eldest sister-in-law fainted, as Ye Junqing was sentenced to three yearsâ imprisonment and finally led away by the police. Her heart twisted painfully.
Even if she could take back her words, if she could change this moment, her heartache was unbearable.
But it was useless, everything was already done. For the time being, her familyâs big tumor could only squat in the jail!
