Taking a deep breath and closing her eyes, she tried to suppress the oppressive feeling in her chest.
Before she could speak, Ye Yuning had already hung up.
Staring at the darkened phone screen, Zheng Cai wished she could smash it. But, considering it cost over ten thousand, she clenched her teeth and restrained herself.
She spoke to Ye Shilong beside her with visible annoyance, "She said he’s just an office worker!"
"Do you think that girl would actually be interested in an office worker?" Ye Shilong’s tone was cold and gloomy.
He had to get those three hundred million back from Ye Yuning’s new husband.
Thinking about the recent problems within the Ye Corporation, all these issues were caused by Ye Yuning.
The visible loss was those three hundred million!And the unseen losses involved many other projects.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Cai thought it made sense. "Yeah, that girl looks down on everyone. How could she possibly be interested in an ordinary office worker?"
"Hmph! If you had put even a little effort into understanding her in the past, you wouldn’t be so clueless about her now, nor would she be this cold," he said.
Zheng Cai: "..."
Ye Shilong’s tone clearly indicated he was blaming her for not treating Ye Yuning well in the past.
But Ye Yuning wasn’t her own child; it was just hard to develop any real affection for her.Back then, she hadn’t expected that wretched girl to grow up to be so successful. If she had known, her actions would have been a given, wouldn’t they?
Facing Ye Shilong’s accusations, she simply sighed in exasperation and said, "This isn’t the ti to talk about this. We should think of ways to make that girl cough up the three hundred million."
"And those projects she’s landed! You have no idea how big they are—even Simon from Luozhou sought her out!" After a mont’s thought, she added.
She had used her connections to snatch a few projects for Tongtong, thinking it would deal a heavy blow to that girl.Who would have thought that for Ye Yuning, it would be completely trivial? Not only did she not care, but she imdiately went on to secure several more big deals.
And what about Ye Tong’s studio? Apart from the major contract with the Xiao Corporation, there were only a few small projects she had helped snatch. Now, no new clients were approaching them for collaboration. It was simply no match for what Ye Yuning was achieving.
Their hopes now rested on the collaboration with the Xiao Corporation succeeding and the Bugelang Exhibition bringing Ye Tong so fa, just so the studio could manage to survive.Otherwise, not only would she be consud with jealousy of Ye Yuning, but she would also suffer a huge loss of face!
Thinking of these things, Zheng Cai gritted her teeth in anger.
Ye Shilong learned that the projects Ye Yuning was now handling were the ones he had previously wanted.
He had tried to connect with them several tis without success, never imagining Ye Yuning would be the one to sign them.
His face livid, he said, "We need to find out her husband’s identity as soon as possible. You should also have soone secretly follow them."
They simply didn’t believe Ye Yuning’s husband was just so ordinary office worker.
Zheng Cai nodded, "Okay, I know."
At this mont, she and Ye Shilong were of one mind. Neither believed that Ye Yuning’s current husband was just an office worker, so they were determined to uncover the truth.
That damn girl, when did she beco so shrewd?But it didn’t matter. She would make sure Ye Yuning paid dearly for that lost three hundred million.
"How are things with the Qin Family? And Qin’s young master?" Ye Shilong asked Zheng Cai again.
Zheng Cai said, "Ever since those things were returned, Mrs. Qin hasn’t troubled further. As for their eldest son, I have no idea."
Regarding the young master’s elopent, they simply dismissed it as a tactic by the Qin Family to cover up so scandal. Therefore, the two of them didn’t take the matter seriously and paid it no mind at all.
"Keep an eye on Ye Yuning," Ye Shilong said, his face livid.
Zheng Cai nodded, her face just as somber, "Rest assured, I know."
After hanging up on Zheng Cai’s call, Ye Yuning imdiately dialed Xiao Linye.
The call was quickly answered, and a man’s deep voice ca through, "Hello."
"Would you like to have lunch together?" Ye Yuning asked gently.
Her tone was gentler than usual, clearly with a hint of coaxing him.
And this gentleness, to Xiao Linye on the other end of the line, who had been quite angry, was surprisingly soothing.
"What would you like to eat?"
"How about the Western restaurant downstairs? I’m really busy now and don’t have ti to go anywhere else."
"Okay," Xiao Linye replied.
Hearing his agreent, Ye Yuning felt a weight lift from her chest.
Although she still had no idea what he had been angry about that morning, listening to his tone now, he clearly didn’t seem as upset.
It seed Xiao Linye wasn’t actually a petty person. Thinking this, Ye Yuning felt considerably better.She had genuinely been worried he might be petty; if so, she really wasn’t sure they could get along.
Chen Wei knocked on the door and ca in. "Boss, shall I order lunch for you?"
"No need, I’m going out to eat," Ye Yuning replied.
Chen Wei ntally went ’Huh?’ Married won truly were enviable.Though, the boss hadn’t left yet, even at this hour.
Chen Wei thought for a mont and said, "Then may I leave first? I have a friend to et today."
Usually, if the junior boss didn’t leave, she wouldn’t leave either, and she didn’t often go out anyway.But today was a special situation; a friend was visiting from her hotown, and she needed to go pick them up.
As Ye Yuning was packing up her things, she waved her hand, "Go ahead!"
