Zhuo Qianyun nodded, and the three finally reached the school cafeteria. Ye Wenming and Lil Yan went to the counter to buy some food and drinks, while Zhuo Qianyun found a seat and waited for them.Zhuo Qianyun's eyes welled up as she watched the father and son hold a plate each while choosing the food.This scene was common for ordinary families.However, it was so rare for her.She once thought Ye Wenming and Lil Yan would never get along like normal father and son.However, what happened today had surprised her. Perhaps it was exactly because they were father and son. They were tied by blood, after all.'What about me... How much affection do I have left for Ye Wenming?''If there's really nothing left, why did I feel some discomfort in my chest when I heard Ye Wenming had been getting his blood drawn for me? Is it just because I don't want to owe Ye Wenming anything?'She thought that the best thing that could happen to her was to raise her children, take good care of her m
"Thank you for today. Lil Yan had a great time," said Zhuo Qianyun. She could see that her son was in a good mood."It's what a father is supposed to do. You don't need to thank me. I'm the one who owes Lil Yan too much," said Ye Wenming. After some hesitation, he added, "Qianyun, what you saw the other day when you came to my office—"There was tension in his voice as he said this.However, she interrupted before he could finish. "You don't need to explain it to me!""But you're my wife, aren't you?" he asked as he looked at her intently. There was even an imploring look in his eyes. "Even if... we're going to get a divorce later on, you're still my wife right now. Shouldn't you find out what's going on?"For a moment, what he said and the look in his eyes made it hard for her to retort."Yan Qiongying came to me the other day and told me about what happened to you in prison. I... was so distracted that I didn't even notice her approaching me. The next thing I knew, you were alr
Ye Wenming returned to his car and started it. Then, the car slowly drove away from the store.The last thing he saw in the rearview mirror was Zhuo Qianyun smiling at Guo Xinli...She had not shown him such a smile in so many years.Ye Wenming withdrew his gaze and told himself again that maybe it was best not to disturb her.Once Zhuo Qianyun finished checking the goods Guo Xinli brought over, she looked up to find that Ye Wenming was no longer in the store.An indescribable sense of loss instantly rose in her heart.'Is he... gone? Did he just leave without a word?'"Huh? Is Mr. Ye gone?" Guo Xinli's voice rang out in surprise."Yes, he's gone," said Zhuo Qianyun."Have you and Mr. Ye made up and gotten back together?" asked Guo Xinli.Zhuo Qianyun froze before quickly denying it. "No, we’re just like before. We're not really together."Guo Xinli scratched his head in embarrassment. "I thought you had gotten back together. The way you looked around for him just now was as
Yi Jinli's arms suddenly tightened around Ling Yiran. Every time he saw Ye Wenming, he realized how lucky he was.He had coldly watched Yiran get imprisoned back then. If he had intervened, Yiran would not have suffered in prison.Fortunately, Yiran forgave him and was willing to be with him."Thank you," he muttered.Ling Yiran chuckled. "What's come over you? We're talking about Sis Zhuo and Ye Wenming. What are you thanking me for?""Thank you for being willing to forgive me. If you had refused to forgive me, I'm afraid I'd be worse off and more miserable than Ye Wenming," said Yi Jinli.Ling Yiran turned around and fixed her eyes on Yi Jinli. "Jin, I can only be truly happy because there’s no other man in the world who can love me like you do. And neither can I love anyone else as much as I love you.”After a pause, her hands caressed his face. "Thank you for falling in love with me."If he had not fallen in love with her, would she have a different fate? Perhaps she would
Thinking of this, Wu Huairen rushed forward again and slapped Yan Qiongying several times.Yan Qiongying's face was soon beaten swollen. "Huairen, listen to me. I... I went to see Ye Wenming for the sake of your business. I really did it for you...""Do you think I can't see through you? Yan Qiongying, don't you know what kind of woman you are? You're lucky that I was willing to make your life as comfortable as it is now. Otherwise, do you think an ex-convict like you can enjoy such a comfortable life? Since you want to be with Ye Wenming more, you can go to him. It seems my place isn’t good enough for you! Hence, I'm taking this house back. I'll give you three days to leave!"Wu Huairen was about to walk away after saying that.Yan Qiongying was taken aback. Ignoring the pain, she hurriedly tried to grab Wu Huairen.She would have nothing left if she got evicted."Huairen, don't kick me out. I've been with you for so many years. I really did it for you. I won't go look for Ye We
"What happened to you?" asked Zhuo Qianyun.Yan Qiongying forced a smile. "Huairen beat me. He blamed me for being useless because I couldn’t help him get a business deal with Ye Group, so he beat me."Zhuo Qianyun was silent. After all, Yan Qiongying had come to her before, hoping to help Wu Huairen strike a business deal with Ye Wenming. However, she refused.Yan Qiongying looked at the state Zhuo Qianyun was in and pretended to be generous as she said, "Qianyun, don't take it to heart. It has nothing to do with you. I just loved the wrong person. I didn't expect him to hit me just because he failed to get a business deal."Yan Qiongying paused again and said apologetically, "I said some mean things when I left the last time. Don't take those words to heart. I was just in a bad mood! And I'm glad I didn't help that animal get the business deal. It's not worth it at all!"Zhuo Qianyun hesitated and said, "You can leave him and live a good life on your own. Take me, for instance.
"I'll be careful," replied Zhuo Qianyun."By the way, do you know Mr. Yu? He was the one who criticized you outside the venue of the full moon party. He’s in hot water now. His family is almost bankrupt. He lost all his business deals and is asking around for a loan, but no one dares to loan him money," said Yan Qiongying.Zhuo Qianyun listened quietly, but her face showed no expression.From the corners of her eyes, Yan Qiongying shot Zhuo Qianyun a glance and said pointedly, "Mr. Yu is suddenly so miserable because he offended Ye Wenming. Qianyun, you're lucky to have married a man like Ye Wenming. He stands up for you unconditionally. On the other hand, I wasted my youth on a heartbreaker like Wu Huairen.""Live a good life and you'll meet your true love in the future," said Zhuo Qianyun. "Really? Then... why don't you introduce me to someone? There should be many eligible bachelors in Ye Wenming's company, right? Why don't you set me up with someone? I'll never forget your ki
Yan Qiongying got out of the car. Zhuo Qianyun was sitting in the backseat as Yan Qiongying had put some extra candles and incense sticks on the front passenger seat.The doors were closed, and the car keys were in the car.Zhuo Qianyun sat inside. For some reason, she began to feel as if the smell in the car was getting stronger and stronger. It smelled like the fragrance that came from the amulet, and she started to get drowsy.Before she knew it, her eyelids slowly closed and she fell sound asleep.Moments later, two men walked to the car and casually opened the door. They got into the car and drove away.By the time Yan Qiongying came out of the temple, her car had disappeared from where she parked it.Yan Qiongying was immediately anxious and went to the temple to ask around. Moments later, she called the police."Hello? My car is gone and my friend is in the car. I can't reach my friend's phone either. Could you help me look for it? It went missing at..." Yan Qiongying a
