After a long pause, she finally spoke, "It would be better to send someone to keep an eye on things."

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it," Ye Mohan said softly, reaching out to pat Jian Yixue's head.

However, out of Jian Yixue's sight, his eyes darkened.

He didn't really care about that group of people. If things really didn't work out, he would have a way, but he didn't want to tell Jian Yixue and make her worry.

Jian Yixue didn't think much of it and nodded.

She understood that nothing had happened, so there was no point in thinking too much. As long as Ye Mohan was careful and vigilant, it was always good to be cautious.

Suddenly, Ye Mohan seemed to remember something and looked at Jian Yixue, saying, "Dad called me this afternoon and asked if I knew Doctor Yue."

Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue asked anxiously, "What's wrong? Is Dad sick?"

She is the one who is taking care of my mother's health, and it has been confirmed that there are no major problems. It's just a matter of time.

So apart from Gong Beize himself, she couldn't think of anyone else at the moment.

"Dad is fine," Ye Mohan shook his head and said, "It's Old Madam Gong who's in trouble."

"Madam Gong?" Jian Yixue asked, somewhat puzzled.

Ye Mohan nodded.

"What's wrong with her?"

Jian Yixue frowned as she thought of the domineering old woman she had met today.

"Madam Gong's heart..." Ye Mohan's deep voice echoed in the quiet room.

After hearing Ye Mohan's words, Jian Yixue suddenly remembered that the old lady Gong she had seen before was very thin, her face was just skin and bones, and her complexion was more sallow than normal people, which seemed to be due to a health problem.

However, at that time, she was not paying any attention to these things, so she did not notice them.

"What did you say to Dad?" Jian Yixue asked curiously.

Ye Mohan said, "What can I say? I definitely need to ask you before I can say anything. I didn't tell Dad your identity; I said I would ask Doctor Yue for his opinion."

Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue nodded with satisfaction.

"You did a very good job. I'll reward you with a medicinal meal later."

Ye Mohan frowned suddenly, pursed his lips, and said somewhat displeasedly, "Can Xue'er change to something else?"

"No, your body needs proper nourishment right now, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with if it leaves a chronic illness. You may not be able to see it now because you're young, but you'll understand the suffering when you get old," Jian Yixue said earnestly.

Ye Mohan looked at Jian Yixue, who was as talkative as Zhou Yuxuan, and nodded helplessly, "Understood."

If it were Zhou Yuxuan in front of him, he would have already retorted.

But his wife was right in front of him, so he dared not, and did not want to.

"What do you decide to do?" Ye Mohan asked.

Jian Yixue frowned and said, "Let's wait and see."

"Actually, you don't want to get involved, right?" Ye Mohan asked.

Jian Yixue nodded. "Given her attitude towards Mom, I'm already being lenient by not poisoning her. This is only because of my dad; otherwise, I would have made sure she died quietly."

Upon hearing this, Ye Mohan understood Jian Yixue's meaning. Suddenly remembering her earlier words, he asked, "Then why did you say we should wait?"

Shouldn't we just refuse outright?

Ye Mohan was very puzzled.

Jian Yixue turned around and looked at Ye Mohan, gesturing for him to come closer. Ye Mohan did as she asked and whispered in Jian Yixue's ear.

Jian Yixue whispered to Ye Mohan, "I suspect..."

Ye Mohan raised an eyebrow after hearing this, "I see. Then let's wait for the results."

In the VIP ward of the same hospital, the lights were still on late at night.

Gong Yuanyuan sat in the chair with a headache, her hand resting on the bedside table. She looked somewhat helpless and had a headache.

Meanwhile, the old lady Gong, still lying in her hospital bed, was not asleep at this hour. She continued to complain incessantly about her hardships and the ungrateful behavior of the Gong brothers, Gong Beize and Gong Boze.

"Yuanyuan, you have no idea how heartless your two brothers treated me. I really don't want to live anymore."

Gong Yuanyuan said helplessly, "Mom, my brother and the others didn't mean that."

Upon hearing this, Old Madam Gong immediately disagreed, saying, "That's exactly what they mean! Your second brother, do you know what he said? He actually said I'm hard to please, that he's going to take Ji Lei and move out, saying that I've bullied Ji Lei terribly, and that they can live their own lives from now on, leaving me to fend for myself!"

Gong Yuanyuan, "Mom, my second brother..."

Before Gong Yuanyuan could finish speaking, Old Madam Gong continued.

"And your older brother, he hasn't heard a word about a woman all these years. Now he's back with that woman and someone else's child, and he even wants that scoundrel to come into the house. What a pipe dream! As long as I'm here, he can forget about bringing that scoundrel into the house."

Today he even let that bastard's daughter hit me; I would have fainted if it weren't for that! In short, as long as I'm alive, he won't let that wretched mother and daughter into the house!

Upon hearing this, Gong Yuanyuan frowned immediately.

Although she knew that it was her elder brother's daughter, she did not believe that she could lay a hand on an elder.

What's more, her mother is also her grandmother.

But she also knew that her mother must have said something to anger her older brother, because he hadn't come to see her since her mother's accident.

You know, the eldest brother used to be the most filial to their mother among them.

Moreover, the fainting incident was not anyone else's fault at all. She was in a meeting at the company that afternoon when she suddenly received a call from her second brother, telling her to come to the hospital immediately. So she canceled her schedule for the whole day and rushed over, only to learn about her mother's condition from her eldest and second brothers.

However, after discussing it, the three of them decided to keep it from her, fearing that she wouldn't be able to handle the outcome.

Thinking of something, Gong Yuanyuan said, "Mom, stop calling her a slut all the time. She's the one my brother likes. Besides, that bastard you mentioned is actually my brother's biological daughter."

Upon hearing this, Old Madam Gong was completely stunned.

Is that girl Gong Beize's daughter?

Gong Yuanyuan continued, "Mom, have you noticed how you've changed over the years?"

Upon hearing this, Madam Gong's eyes flashed, but she retorted defiantly, "What has changed?"

This was the most unsettling thing she had heard in a long time.

Gong Yuanyuan said, "Dad passed away early, and you worked hard to raise us siblings. We all understand how difficult it was for you, so we siblings will try our best to fulfill your wishes."

But I don't know when it started, I realized that Mom, you've become a stranger to me, and your way of doing things is very different from before.

Especially back when my older brother and sister-in-law were together, I don't understand why you insisted on breaking them up. My brother was outstanding, but my sister-in-law was no less so; she was elegant and dignified, capable, and well-liked. Most importantly, my brother liked her. They were clearly a match made in heaven. Why did you have to destroy their relationship?
