In her past life, a treacherous man and a despicable woman conspired against her, leading her to a tragic end filled with hatred.
Only at the moment of death did she realize that her foolish ...
Even without Ye Mohan saying it, he knew that this batch of special medicines was extremely valuable, and its medical value was immeasurable.
None of that was the most important thing. Thinking of something, she looked at Ye Mohan and asked, "Are you injured?"
"Thanks to you, I didn't die."
Upon hearing Ye Mohan's words, and considering Jian Yixue's sudden and hurried departure abroad that day, Old Master Ye knew that Ye Mohan's injuries were quite serious.
My heart was aching terribly, and my physical appearance also deteriorated.
Why, in his final moments, did he have to witness his own family killing each other?
Old Master Ye was very sad.
He lowered his head and remained silent for a long time. "If it really comes to that, leave him alive and hand him over to me."
"Old Master Ye said cruelly."
The light in his eyes was gone, and he looked rather weak, like a tree that had been battered by wind and frost.
After all, he was his son; both were equally dear to him, so how could he not feel pain?
He had already lost his eldest son, and he couldn't afford to fail in protecting his eldest son's flesh and blood; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to face his wife and children in the afterlife.
Ye Mohan remained silent, knowing how difficult this decision must have been for the old man.
However, he had to tell the old man that he couldn't stand by and watch that person retaliate against him again in the future and let him get away with it.
In the past, he could have been more tolerant, but now, he has someone he wants to protect.
We must be responsible for our own lives, for the rest of our loved ones' lives, and for their future children.
After a while, Old Master Ye continued slowly, "I'm going back to my room first. When Xue'er comes back, please tell her for me that I'm a little tired."
Seeing this, Ye Mohan didn't say anything more, but just nodded slightly at the old man.
After Old Master Ye finished speaking, he gestured for Butler Jin, who was standing at the door, to come over, and then helped him back to his room.
Ye Mohan watched the old man's figure until he disappeared around the corner before turning his gaze away.
He picked up the now-cold tea from the table and drank it, his gaze fixed on the share transfer document, lost in thought.
When Jian Yixue returned, she only saw Ye Mohan with this expression on his face. She was puzzled to see that the old man was no longer in the living room.
She sat down next to Ye Mohan and looked around. "Where's Grandpa? Why are you the only one here?"
Ye Mohan snapped out of his reverie the moment Jian Yixue appeared in the living room, staring at her as he slowly walked to her side.
Upon hearing Jian Yixue's words, Ye Mohan asked, "Isn't it good if only I'm here?"
Jane Yixue remained silent for a moment, somewhat not understanding the deeper meaning behind Ye Mohan's words.
She was simply curious about where her grandfather had gone, and what that had to do with whether he was doing well or not.
Jian Yixue thought for a long time but still didn't understand, so she had to ask, "What does Grandpa's whereabouts have to do with whether you're okay or not???"
"Why don't you go first?"
Jian Yixue looked at the childish Ye Mohan with some helplessness, but she still went along with his wishes, "Okay, of course it's good, it's best to have you."
Upon hearing this, Ye Mohan smiled with satisfaction before saying, "Grandpa is tired and has gone upstairs to rest."
After hearing this, Jian Yixue was even more puzzled.
With a furrowed brow, he muttered to himself, "This shouldn't be happening. The toxins have all been neutralized, and all my bodily indicators are normal. I shouldn't be feeling so sleepy. I need to go see a doctor."
After saying this, Jian Yixue became even more worried and prepared to get up and go upstairs to have the old man take a look.
Before she could fully stand up, Ye Mohan grabbed her arm. Jian Yixue looked at Ye Mohan behind her, puzzled.
"I'm going to check on Grandpa. Don't be silly, wait for me a moment, okay, honey?"
Jian Yixue couldn't figure out Ye Mohan's intentions for a moment. With the old man's health on her mind, she could only try to coax Ye Mohan.
Upon hearing this, Ye Mohan raised an eyebrow, his eyes showing a hint of surprise and disbelief at what he had just heard.
"Xue'er, what did you call me just now?"
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue recalled what she had just said, and her face instantly turned bright red. She covered her face with her hands, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
Even after seeing this, Ye Mohan still hadn't given up.
He wanted to make sure he hadn't misheard, so he pulled Jian Yixue into his arms and coaxed her, "Xue'er, say it again, I didn't hear you clearly."
Jian Yixue covered her face, too embarrassed to say it again.
The two remained locked in this stalemate.
In the end, Jian Yixue was still worried about the old man's condition and thought that this couldn't go on, so she could only repeat herself with a blush.
"husband."
Upon hearing this, Ye Mohan's face lit up with a smug and arrogant smile, clearly enjoying Jian Yixue's way of addressing him.
"Xue'er, please call me that from now on."
Jian Yixue was helpless and also extremely embarrassed, "No!"
Jane Yixue refused very decisively.
The thought of being so affectionate in front of everyone made her incredibly embarrassed. She absolutely couldn't agree; how could she ever face anyone afterward?
"Why?"
A hint of hurt flashed across Ye Mohan's face, and his tone became somewhat dejected.
Jian Yixue sensed the emotion in Ye Mohan's tone, lowered her hand from her face, thought for a moment, and explained, "I can't bring myself to call you that in front of outsiders."
Upon hearing this, the disappointment on Ye Mohan's face faded considerably. He had assumed that Jian Yixue was unwilling to call him "husband" or be intimate with him.
Ye Mohan held Jian Yixue tightly in his arms, lowered his head and rested his head on her shoulder, "Then from now on, when it's just the two of us in private, you can call me that. When there are other people around, you can still act like before."
Upon hearing Ye Mohan's words, Jian Yixue nodded without hesitation.
Of course, it's possible in private. This request is not excessive at all; on the contrary, it's quite reasonable.
He was originally her husband!
Immersed in happiness, Jian Yixue suddenly remembered the old man and patiently spoke to Ye Mohan behind her.
"Honey, I'm worried that there might be something about Grandpa's health that I haven't found out yet. I want to go and check on him."
Upon hearing this, Ye Mohan noticed Jian Yixue's worry and stopped teasing her, explaining, "Grandpa is fine. I told him something, and he went to rest because he was in a bad mood."
Jian Yixue frowned. "What did you say to Grandpa? Grandpa's health has just improved, and he can't handle any stress. Besides, keeping a happy mood is good for his recovery."
"It's alright, he'll figure it out. Don't underestimate Grandpa. He's been through a lot, he's not so weak that he can't handle this little thing."
If you're worried, I'll have Yuxuan come over later. Grandpa's gone to rest now, so let's not disturb him, okay?
Ye Mohan patiently explained.
After listening, Jian Yixue glanced in the direction of the old man's bedroom, thought for a moment, and nodded.
Ye Mohan is right. His grandfather has been in the business world for decades, and he can't be brought down by something so trivial.
