At this mont, hearing that Zheng Cai had co to find her, Ye Yuning was no fool; she naturally knew that sothing must have happened in the Ye Family again. With people like Zheng Cai, their usual arrogance was more than just a little.
Ye Yuning took a deep breath and walked towards the office. As she went, she didn’t forget to add, "Process Kang Xuan’s onboarding."
"Ah? What?" Chen Wei was shocked.
Process Kang Xuan’s onboarding? He’s a man from the Xiao Family, and processing his entry at Manlang ans he’ll start receiving a salary from Manlang. Is the boss intending to pay Kang Xuan a salary?
Chen Wei didn’t quite understand what had happened; however, Ye Yuning didn’t elaborate and went straight into the office.
Kang Xuan, who was following, saw Chen Wei’s puzzled expression and asked, "Am I going to HR to complete the hiring process?"
Chen Wei murmured, "You..."
Onboarding? Could he be soone Seventh Master Xiao sent to the boss? Then the boss shouldn’t accept him, right? Seventh Master Xiao is really not a decent person now. In Turanxi, he still seed like a good man. But ever since he returned from Turanxi, his attitude completely soured, and he beca thoroughly unpleasant. What is he trying to do? Does he want to enjoy the good fortune of having several won in his life? Well, he certainly doesn’t have that kind of luck, especially not the good fortune of being with the boss—that’s sothing he’ll never get to enjoy.
「In the office.」
The mont Ye Yuning entered the office, Zheng Cai heard the sound of her arrival and, seeing Ye Yuning, quickly stood up.
Ye Yuning glanced around the office. It was clean and tidy; clearly, no scene had been made. How rare! Hadn’t Zheng Cai always been so imperious during her previous visits to the office? This ti she was surprisingly subdued, making Ye Yuning wonder if she had walked into the wrong place.
"Ningning," Zheng Cai called out to her nervously.
Ye Yuning walked straight to her desk and sat in her executive chair.
Zheng Cai stood up. "Um, you..." She wanted to say sothing, but at that mont, she didn’t know where to begin. Her face was etched with deep sorrow. It was clear that sothing had happened within the Ye Family, and it was no small matter.
Ye Yuning gave her a cold glance. "Speak. What is it? Don’t waste my ti."
Her tone was cold, devoid of any warmth. Zheng Cai felt uncomfortable hearing her speak like this.
"Can you co back with to the Ye family’s ancestral ho the day after tomorrow?" she asked softly. Her voice was now incredibly low, practically down to a whisper.
Ye Yuning frowned but didn’t speak. The day after tomorrow? She definitely wouldn’t have ti. These days, she didn’t even have ti on weekends, let alone weekdays.
Zheng Cai pleaded, "Please, I’m begging you, alright?"
She had even resorted to begging.
Ye Yuning scoffed. "Your daughter is Ye Tong. Isn’t it more appropriate for you to take her back?" Hasn’t that always been the case? Before Ye Tong returned to the Ye Family, there was no place for there. After Ye Tong ca back, Zheng Cai often told that everything in the Ye Family belonged to Ye Tong. Absolutely everything had nothing to do with , and I shouldn’t covet what wasn’t mine. Especially the Ye family’s ancestral ho, the gathering place for the Ye family mbers. I rember when Ye Tong first returned to the Ye Family, Zheng Cai hurriedly took her to the ancestral ho.
As for the Ye family, it was a complicated situation. Old Master Ye had three sons and two daughters. Ye Shilong’s generation wasn’t particularly impressive, but among the younger generation, the disparities in standing and ability were vast. And Ye Tong? She was considered the least capable of them all.
The day after tomorrow must be the Ye family’s banquet. Did Zheng Cai take Ye Tong back before and get thoroughly humiliated? Is that why she wants to take this ti?
"Ningning..." Hearing Ye Yuning’s words, Zheng Cai grew anxious. She started to speak hastily but then trailed off, not knowing what to say. At this mont, standing before Ye Yuning, she felt as if all her thoughts had been laid bare, an incredibly uncomfortable sensation.
Ye Yuning said, "I’m not your daughter. If you take back, those people will say whatever they want anyway."
Zheng Cai persisted, "Then just co back with ."
"I’m the woman abandoned by the Xiao Family. Taking back with you will only bring you more sha."
"No, it’s not like that, it’s not..." Zheng Cai grew even more anxious.
Ye Yuning was sowhat surprised that Zheng Cai didn’t back down even after hearing that.
After all, the Ye family mbers were always like that—they’d cling to you when there were benefits to be gained. But if the benefits disappeared, or if it might affect them negatively, they couldn’t wait to sever all ties. Xiao Linye and Qi Mulan’s wedding had been causing such a stir lately. I would have thought the Ye family would want nothing to do with right now.
And yet, Zheng Cai now...
Ye Yuning took a deep breath. "Just say it. What exactly happened? I don’t believe a word about ’familial affection’ coming from you." Familial affection... that was sothing Zheng Cai truly lacked.
Zheng Cai’s voice began to choke as she said, "Ye Shilong wants to divorce . He’s so heartless! And Old Master Ye from the main family is also..."
After all her years in the Ye Family, she never expected them to be so heartless to her in the end.
