“I know,” Zhuang Ning said quietly.

Warmth suffused Ye Cheng’s heart immediately. He thought that Chen Chen must have filled her in.

“I know everything. I deliberately stayed away. I was waiting for today when the dust finally settled,” Zhuang Ning continued to say calmly and gently.

Ye Cheng was stunned. For a time, he did not understand what Zhuang Ning meant.

Zhuang Ning looked at Ye Cheng, who was sitting across from her, and thought about Jiahui’s words. Jiahui had said that Ye Cheng was sincere toward her, and Jiahui had even felt slightly sorry for him.

!!

At this moment, Ye Cheng’s miserable state and also his sincerity made the scar on Zhuang Ning’s heart slowly bleed again. She looked into his eyes and asked slowly, “Ye Cheng, do you know Yang Li?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Ye Cheng, who was still in a daze, shook his head slightly. “No, I don’t.”

“Are you sure?” Zhuang Ning pressed on.

Ye Cheng quickly said, “Zhuang Ning, I admit I was frivolous with women in the past. However, since I met you, apart from being forced to deal with Yin Jia and Guan Tang, I don’t have any other women next to me! It’s true!”

Zhuang Ning smiled faintly. “You think I’m jealous of other women? It seems like you really don’t have any impression of Yang Li at all. She died a lowly and tragic death. How pitiful.”

“She’s dead? The person you’re talking about is dead? But, I really don’t know her?” Ye Cheng was confused.

Zhuang Ning looked at Ye Cheng and said, “You know her. She was your younger sister’s manager. Do you remember now?”

Realization dawned on Ye Cheng at this moment. “Oh, you’re talking about that Yang Li. Yang...”

Ye Cheng’s voice came to an abrupt stop.

Yang Li’s name had long been forgotten. After all, in Ye Cheng’s mind, this person no longer existed. He did not understand why Zhuang Ning would mention this name.

Zhuang Ning smiled. “You remember now, right? In fact, Yang Li met you many times and even carried out your orders many times. However, you never treated her like a person. Hence, after you found out that she died, you quickly dismissed her and no longer remembered such a person.”

How could Ye Cheng not tell that something was amiss at this moment?

“Ye Xin’s reputation was ruined, but she pushed all the responsibility to Yang Li. In order to appease Ye Xin’s anger and to cheer her up, you secretly tried to get rid of Yang Li. Ye Cheng, do you have any righteousness in your heart?”

Ye Cheng felt as though he had been dunked in ice-cold water.

“The person you sent said that Yang Li had no one to rely on and no support. Even if she died, no one would care or question it. Since she knew too many of Eldest Young Miss Ye’s secrets, it would be like a ticking time bomb to leave her alive. It was best to get rid of her as soon as possible to have peace of mind. Ye Cheng, none of you treated her like a human being, right?”

“In your eyes, she was just a dog that worked for your sister. You didn’t even let her go. In the end, you took her life and left her without a corpse. It seems like you and your people are very familiar with doing such things.”

As Zhuang Ning spoke, her voice became lighter and lighter.

“In fact, how many secrets could an unfavored manager know? How much of a threat could such a person be to Ye Xin? In the end, the real reason was Ye Xin lost her temper and none of you could stand it so you used Yang Li’s cheap life to appease her.”

Goosebumps erupted on Ye Cheng’s flesh. “Zhuang Ning, you, what do you mean by this?”

Zhuang Ning smiled coldly. “When you dream at night, do you dream of Yang Li’s ghost?”

An ominous feeling rose in Ye Cheng’s heart. “Who is she to you?”

Zhuang Ning lowered her gaze. She did not reply. Instead, she said, “The Ye Group is finished. I’ve transferred the shares and stocks you asked me to manage through various channels and methods. You owe Yang Li this money.”

“Mr. Ye He didn’t regain consciousness this week. The doctor said he missed the best time, and he’d likely be a vegetable from now on. Ye Xin’s sentence is almost over. With Mu Chen’s consent, I bailed her out and sent her back to the Ye family. She’s with her mother now. It’s only right for two madwomen to be together. She really had it easy just being in prison.”

“As for you... You’ll be released as well. Chen Chen sold the last of the Ye family’s assets to save you. I saw that he was in a difficult position so I bought it at a low price. In the end, you still have to thank me for getting you out of trouble.”
