Leaving this place was a well-considered decision by Ye Zhao, and it would be better for everyone.

Shen Du clearly understood her intentions. Ye Zhao was initially worried that he would disagree, but things went unexpectedly smoothly. However, this was the best possible outcome.

Now that Shen Du had agreed, Ye Zhao began making travel plans.

Having never had the opportunity to see the world in her past life, Ye Zhao was determined not to shortchange herself now that she was financially secure. She spent the entire afternoon figuring out travel itineraries.

She had kept her phone on silent for a day, and when she picked it up, there were already quite a few messages and calls, which she was used to. However, a few text messages caught her attention.

Are you alright?

"Where are you? Answer the phone! Grandma's worried about you!"

"Answer the phone whenever there's nothing else to do."

Ye Zhao was frantically searching his mind for the target person on the unmarked number, but he still couldn't figure out who it was. Just as he was feeling very puzzled, the other party called again.

Ye Zhao answered the phone without much hesitation.

"Hello?"

"Are you alright?" a woman's voice asked anxiously.

Ye Zhao replied with some confusion, "I'm fine, what's wrong?"

Before she could ask who the caller was, the other end snapped, "Can't you answer the phone if there's nothing wrong? I thought you were dead!"

Before he could finish speaking, two noisy voices came from the other side.

"Is Zhao Zhao alright?"

"Are you alright? Are you alright?"

A slightly aged voice came from behind her, and Ye Zhao paused for a moment. A thought popped into her mind, and without thinking, she called out, "Grandma..."

The noisy commotion on the other end of the phone drowned out Ye Zhao's voice. After a moment, it quieted down, and an old voice came through.

"Zhaozhao, it's your grandma. Are you alright, child?"

Hearing the kind voice and gentle, caring tone, Ye Zhao's eyes suddenly welled up with tears. She paused for a moment and replied softly, "I'm fine, Grandma..."

"Good child, it's alright, it's alright..."

Ye Zhao blinked, forcing back the tears welling up in her eyes, and quickly said, "I'm fine, don't worry."

"Okay, okay, Grandma knows. Our Zhaozhao is a good child, and she will have a good marriage in the future. Don't be afraid, Zhaozhao..."

It turns out that there are still people in this world who care about Ye Zhao so much. Ye Zhao suddenly felt a little envious of the original owner of this body.

"Yes, I'm fine. How are you?"

Upon hearing this, there was a two-second silence before the aged voice slowly replied, "I'm doing well too! That's wonderful, our Zhaozhao knows how to care for her grandmother now."

As soon as he finished speaking, another female voice came from the other end: "Zhaozhao, come back and visit whenever you have time. Your grandma often talks about you."

Before he could finish speaking, the young woman who had initially made the call snapped, "You'd better not come anymore, don't upset Grandma."

"Yan Xi!"

"I didn't say anything wrong!"

"Zhaozhao, come visit your grandma whenever you have time. Grandma is getting old, and I don't know how many more times I'll see you."

After he finished speaking, the other end of the phone went silent.

The old lady spoke with a hint of hope, and then quietly waited for Ye Zhao's reply.

Ye Zhao paused for a moment, then replied gently, "Okay, it's been a long time since I've seen you either."

The old lady seemed relieved, and her tone became tinged with happiness: "Okay, okay, Grandma will be waiting for you at home."

After the call ended, Ye Zhao was still in a daze.

In the original book, many things about the female supporting character were glossed over, and the matter of Ye Zhao's maternal grandmother and uncle's family was hardly mentioned. Moreover, Ye Zhao had only skimmed through the female supporting character's plot, so she had no idea what the original owner's maternal grandmother and uncle's family was like.

However, judging from the phone call, their family still cares about the original owner, but it's unclear why they hadn't been in contact before.

While I was thinking, my phone beeped with a few more messages.

Brother Yuanzi: "Are you alright?"

"There's nothing good about being depressed, so let's just cancel the engagement."

Ye Zhao has been spending her free time lately bickering and chatting with this scoundrel, and the two have become quite familiar with each other.

She replied slowly, "It's okay, I'm still breathing."

Brother Yuanzhong: "If you ask me, your taste isn't very good either. How can you be so devoted to that ice block Chen Du?"

Ye Zhao: "That's right, now that we've come to our senses, haven't we?"

"Hahahaha, I'll find you an even better one later."

Ye Zhao: "Thank you!"

Yuanzi: "No need to thank me, we're all friends."

Ye Zhao pursed her lips and didn't reply to him again, but opened Cheng Yu's message and replied.

The news that the president of the Shen Group and the daughter of the Ye family had canceled their engagement dominated the trending topics for several days, with all sorts of gossip circulating, and even Ye Zhao was following the drama.

"I told you, Ye Zhao is no match for Chen Du, the engagement will be called off sooner or later."

"Ye Zhao is so stupid, what era is this, still faking pregnancy."

"Didn't I hear there was no false pregnancy? It's said that President Shen's childhood sweetheart returned to China, and Ye Zhao was abandoned."

"Childhood sweetheart? I heard it refers to someone who is like a white moonlight or a first love!"

"Oh my god, what did I miss?"

Ye Zhao clicked her tongue in admiration. These netizens were really well-informed; they even knew about the "white moonlight" thing.

At the same time, Xie Yao was also browsing the trending topics list.

"President Shen's childhood sweetheart? I've never heard of her."

"Well, I only heard about this from someone else. They said that President Shen's childhood sweetheart comes from a similar family background to him, and the two grew up together since they were little."

"I've heard that too. It's said that Mr. Shen is going back to China soon, which is why he canceled his engagement with Ye Zhao."

When Xie Yao saw this, only one name came to mind: Shu Yang.

Thinking back to how arrogant that person was in front of her when she was young, Xie Yao felt a tightness in her chest. So many years have passed, she wondered if that person had changed at all.

As Xie Yao was thinking, she scrolled through the comments when a photo suddenly appeared in front of her.

"I got it from a friend. I didn't expect President Shen and Ye Zhao to look so well-matched."

"Wow! Ye Zhao is so beautiful, and she doesn't look as bad as they say."

"Well, who knows?"

"But she's really pretty, and they look quite well-matched."

In the photo, the man, dressed in a formal suit, looks elegant and handsome, with a rare smile on his face. The woman, wearing a sky-blue cheongsam, is holding his arm and smiling at Shen Du with her eyes crinkled. The atmosphere is harmonious, and they look very well-matched.

When Xie Yao saw the photo, something seemed to skip a beat in her heart, and her emotions began to sink uncontrollably. All the feelings that she had deliberately suppressed in her heart surged up at that moment, with a bittersweet feeling.

Xie Yao thought that time can erase so many things, and everyone is moving forward.
