“I don’t owe you anything!” Compared to Ye Xiyuan, Ye Leng’an appeared to be calmer. It could even be said that she was indifferent. “I was taken to the wrong family back then. It had nothing to do with me. I was just a baby in swaddling clothes. If you really want to ascertain where the responsibility lies, then you should hold the person who switched us back then responsible. And…”
“From beginning to end, I only owed my adoptive parents because they raised me up. However, I’ve already repaid the favor of upbringing. They used it on you.”
Ye Xiyuan obviously didn’t accept Ye Leng’an’s explanation. “What you said is just to hide your guilty conscience. Ye Leng’an, if you are reluctant to let me off, I won’t let you have it easy either.”
“Let’s wait and see.”
After that, Ye Leng’an turned around and left.
She didn’t take Ye Xiyuan’s threat to heart at all. Even if today’s incident hadn’t happened, it would have been impossible for her and Ye Xiyuan to coexist peacefully. She had to take revenge for her past life. And Ye Xiyuan might not let her off either.
When Ye Xiyuan watched Ye Leng’an leave, the hatred in her eyes deepened. However, she still knew what to prioritize. Ye Leng’an could still be dealt with in the future, but the most important thing now was to deal with the trouble that Zhao Yanran would bring.
In the evening, Ye Xiyuan returned home and saw Ye Li and Lin Wanqin sitting on the sofa pulling long faces. Even Ye Anyun, who usually wasn’t at home at this time, was also there with a straight face.
She knew very well what was going on, but she still pretended not to know anything. She had the usual smile on her face as if nothing had happened. “Dad, Mom, I’m back.”
Then, she turned around and looked at Ye Anyun. She joked with a smile,
“Brother, it’s really strange to see you at this time!”
“Xiyuan, sit down first.” Lin Wanqin stole a glance at Ye Li and forced a smile at Ye Xiyuan. “We want to ask you something.”
Her husband was in a very bad mood today. He flew into a rage the moment he came back. After asking, she found out that it was because the Zhao family had terminated the contract. Because of the failure in cooperation, the company might suffer a loss worth almost two hundred million.
Previously, because he failed to convince Ye Leng’an, he didn’t get the promised profit from the Zhao family, and her husband’s mood had been bad for the past few days. After what happened today, she could imagine how unhappy her husband was.
She knew very well that her husband was blaming everything on his daughter. Although his daughter was now very close to the young master of the Nangong family, up until now, they had not received any benefits. His husband felt a little uncomfortable. Coupled with what happened today, she was worried that her husband would vent his anger on their daughter.
Ye Anyun couldn’t do anything. He just kept winking at Ye Xiyuan, hoping that she would play it by ear.
“Dad, Mom, why are you so serious today?” Ye Xiyuan sat down and joked, “The others might think that something happened to our family!”
“You’re still in the mood to smile.” Ye Li was in a bad mood, so his voice sounded caustic. “Do you know that today…”
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ye Xiyuan.
“Oh, Dad, I almost forgot to tell you.” Ye Xiyuan acted as if she did not detect the dissatisfaction in Ye Li’s voice. She took out a document from her bag and handed it to Ye Li and then said with a smile, “I just went out for dinner with Brother Nangong. He said that the construction of the resort in Nancheng is about to start bidding. Since our company sells building materials, he asked if we were interested in the bidding.”
After saying that, she handed the document in her hand to Ye Li.
Ye Li’s serious expression immediately softened into a grin after he heard that. He took the document from Ye Xiyuan and opened it to read. The smile on his face grew wider and wider.
When Lin Wanqin and Ye Anyun saw the smile on Ye Li’s face, they heaved a sigh of relief. Although they had no idea what was going on, it was obvious that the tension had disappeared.
After a short while, Ye Li slapped his thigh and looked exceptionally excited. He immediately raised his head and looked at Ye Xiyuan.. “Young Master Nangong really wants us to participate in the bidding?”
