“why? if you are afraid that i’ll do something at the party, why did you invite me?” ye lengan found it funny. “if you’re really that worried, you shouldn’t have invited me in the first place!”

“you are joking, aren’t you?” ye xiyuan knew very well that ye leng’an was deliberately trying to provoke her, so she tried her best to calm herself down. she forced a smile and said, “i think you must have a sense of proportion and i just overthought.”

“hehe, you’ll know when the time comes.” ye leng’an smiled mysteriously. “however, since it’s your birthday, i won’t be stingy. i’ll definitely give you a big gift.”

ye xiyuan’s heart skipped a beat when she heard ye leng’an was going to give her a gift. “i’m already very happy it you can come. there’s no need to prepare any gifts.”

she felt that ye leng’an’s words were filled with ill intentions. however, things had reached this stage, if she didn’t invite ye leng’an, she couldn’t reconcile herself to it. furthermore, she had prepared a “big surprise ” for ye leng’an. if ye leng’an did not go, it would be very difficult to find another opportunity in the future.

ye leng’an didn’t answer her question directly. instead, she raised her hand and pointed in the direction of the door. “you can leave now.”

after knowing that ye lengan had agreed to attend the party, ye xiyuan didn’t get angry. she stood up and left.

auntie zhuang, who had been standing at the side, did not even dare to breathe loudly. she was also feeling uneasy. from the beginning to the end, she had heard everything here. although she did not understand the twists and turns, she could roughly piece it together. the story of swapping babies was something that could only be found in television dramas and novels.

however, she only felt frightened after hearing the story. she kept thinking that she knew something that she shouldn’t know. at the same time, she was also worried that she would lose her hard-earned job because of this.

“auntie zhuang!” ye leng’an looked at the person standing at the side and called her name without saying anything else.

it was undeniable that the main reason why she let auntie zhuang stay to listen to her conversation with ye xiyuan was to give her a warning. auntie zhuang allowed someone who claimed to be her friend to come in when she was not at home and did not even call her for confirmation.

this incident could be considered a wake-up call for her. previously, because there were only her and auntie zhuang at home, she did not care too much about this, so she treated auntie zhuang more casually. however, in this family, she was the owner and mistress. auntie zhuang had to remember this.

auntie zhuang had butterflies in her stomach when seeing ye lengan was silent. “miss ye, this matter is all my fault. i shouldn’t have let anyone in without your approval.”

“uh-huh.” ye leng’an didn’t magnanimously say that it didn’t matter. instead, she looked at auntie zhuang and said meaningfully, “auntie zhuang, the reason i hired you is not only because the food you cook is to my liking, but also because i feel that you are not young anymore, so you should have a sense of proportion. that’s also why i agreed to let your daughter stay here. i think i’ve done enough decent things as an employer.”

“miss ye, i will remember your kindness.” auntie zhuang was a little anxious.

“i promise that this will never happen again.”

she didn’t want to lose this job no matter what. after all, this well-paid and easy job was coveted by countless people! she was sure that as long as she was fired today, someone would immediately take this job tomorrow. and it would be very difficult for her to find such a job again.

auntie zhuang looked at ye leng’an nervously after she finished speaking, like a criminal waiting to be sentenced.

after a long while, ye leng’an finally spoke again, “let’s forget about this matter. if there’s a next time, auntie zhuang, you don’t need to come any longer. i think there should be many people who are willing to work for me.”

“don’t worry, miss ye. there won’t be another time.” auntie zhuang heaved a sigh of relief when she finally got ye leng’an’s reply..
