Chapter 499 Cause and Effect



Fu Yanci had seen many sides of Ye Li.

Gentle and exquisitely beautiful.

Charming and adorable.

She's alluring and coquettish.

And... elegant, noble, bright, and dashing, etc.

All the beautiful words in the world used to describe girls fit Ye Li perfectly, and he was fortunate enough to have seen them all.

But this cold and aloof look was a side of Fu Yanci that he had never seen before.

He even saw a hint of gnashing hatred in Ye Li's eyes.

Even though they were so close, at this moment, she felt as if they were a thousand miles apart.

And she continues to drift further away.

“Ali, Xiaobao is not my child.”

Knowing that Ye Li must have seen or heard something to say this, Fu Yanci said in a deep voice, "Ah Li, over the years, I have only loved you, and you are the only woman I have ever loved."

"If you have any doubts about this, I'll take Xiaobao for a paternity test first thing tomorrow morning."

"Ah Li, you have to believe me!"

Trust him?

How can you believe it?

It was as if everything had come full circle, and Ye Li suddenly felt that she had put the cart before the horse.

Whether Fu Yanci loved Li Li or Ye Li was no longer important to her at this moment.

“Fu Yanci…”

Ye Li pushed his arm away and took a step back. "How do you explain the Ye family's affairs and my father's death?"

"Lantu is a partner of the Ye family. Knowing that Dad was expanding overseas, why didn't he object in the company's internal meetings? They said it was a joint investment, but Dad put in all the family's savings. Lantu's CEO, Mr. Wang, withdrew his investment halfway and went to Ningyuan. Ningyuan Home Furnishings is a subsidiary of the Fu family, right?"

"And Zhenda, Huachuang, Songyue..."

The thought of her enjoying a carefree campus life at Imperial University while her father toiled away at the company made Ye Li hate herself.

If she didn't develop a new interest every now and then—today she wanted to paint, tomorrow she wanted to dance, and the day after she planned to become a jewelry designer—it would be a different story.

If he didn't want his daughter Ali to be able to do whatever she wanted and always have confidence, would Dad need to work so hard?

Neither my parents are particularly ambitious people.

Especially my father, who came from humble beginnings and has come this far, he is one of the best among his peers.

His and his mother's wish, from beginning to end, has always been to be a couple for life, to have a job that can support the family, and to have a lovely child—that would be enough for them.

His heart wasn't big; it could only hold his mother and her. The company had to be third in his heart.

But he didn't even celebrate his 50th birthday before collapsing in the company's conference room.

Ye Li, look, your peaceful life was bought with your father's heavy burden and his ultimate sacrifice!

Just by looking at Fu Yanci's cold yet helpless expression, she knew that it was just as she had guessed.

Ye Li laughed until tears streamed down her face. "That's right! These are all trivial matters for the subsidiary, let alone for the group's big boss, Master Fu!"

“Fu Yanci, Master Fu…”

Ye Li looked at Fu Yanci with a sorrowful expression, "Just say it! You want the Ye family to fall, the Zhou family to lose powerful in-laws, and Fu Minghui to lose the leverage to confront you. Just say it!"

"You can have the Ye family's company, and we don't want the marriage with the Zhou family anymore... We don't want anything, just leave Dad with me!!!"

"Fu Yanci, please, give my father back to me, okay?"

Ye Li slid down the wall to the ground, her face covered in tears.

Fu Yanci stood frozen in place.

I've thought about the gossip that would circulate among the wealthy families in the capital if he married Ali.

After all, the Ye family and the Zhou family have been on good terms for so many years, and their two children are always seen together, which is known to everyone in the wealthy family.

In the blink of an eye, Ali went from being Mrs. Zhou to Mrs. Fu. Anyone would have some doubts in that situation.

She thought of how those powerful families who wanted to curry favor with the Fu family would spread rumors to slander Ali and criticize the Ye family.

They also considered that Fu Minghui might not swallow her anger and might even play the victim to gain sympathy, deliberately misleading everyone into believing that he had done something wrong, thus causing further criticism of him.

Just like when Fu Mingzhen had his accident, even members of the Fu family had rumors that he was behind it.

Fu Yanci thought of everything.

He never expected that all the causes and effects would come back to haunt him in this way.

“Ah Li…”

His voice was slightly hoarse as Fu Yanci squatted down and gently pulled Ye Li up. "Ali, I know you won't believe anything I say right now. Give me some time, okay? I'll find out what happened and explain to you. I'll definitely give you an explanation..."

Before he could finish speaking, Fu Yanci's heart skipped a beat.

He can explain everything else.

But how should he explain this to Ye Mushen?

“Ah Li…”

"good!"

Ye Li pulled her hand away from Fu Yanci's, looking into his eyes with teary eyes, "I'm waiting for your explanation!"

Turning to leave, Ye Li gripped the doorknob and said in a deep voice without looking back, "Fu Yanci, don't come to the hospital anymore. I don't want Mom to be traumatized again."

Fu Yanci suddenly looked up.

Ye Li pushed open the door and went out, leaving only her back view before disappearing in an instant.

The lounge fell silent, and Fu Yanci stood there in the doorway for a long time, stunned.

The night outside the window was pitch black, but the twinkling lights of thousands of homes warmed my heart just by looking at them.

Fu Yanci was filled with rage.

After going out and downstairs, Fu Yanci called Xiang Yang and Fu Yi, and then drove straight to the Fu family's company.

Ye Li went to the public restroom.

After washing her face, Ye Li stood by the window for a long time to calm herself down. Only when she saw that she could not see any trace of crying in the mirror did she turn around and go back to the ward.

As the door opened, the aroma of spicy and savory food wafted out.
