Le Yao didn't say anything more. Although she felt that Yan Mei wouldn't give up, it wasn't her business, nor was it something she wanted to get involved in. However, she didn't want Nangong Jue to underestimate himself: "You underestimate yourself too much, don't you have any idea of your own abilities?" The male lead, after all, has a halo.
“I don’t underestimate myself in other places, but in the Nangong family, I’m really nothing.” Nangong Jue smiled bitterly. “Actually, if He Rong hadn’t threatened them, and if Nangong Rongyao hadn’t been so concerned about his reputation, they wouldn’t have acknowledged me at all.” He paused for a moment. “Actually, I really don’t want to have this surname. If I could, I would even create my own surname.”
Le Yao reached out and touched Nangong Jue's head. Poor child.
Nangong Jue: ...
The first time someone patted my head, it felt... like touching a golden bean?
After Nangong Jue fell asleep, Le Yao came out of the ward, only to run into Yan Mei downstairs. She hadn't intended to talk to her, but Yan Mei called out to her, "Miss Han, want to chat for a bit?"
Le Yao raised an eyebrow slightly: "Mrs. He, what is there for us to talk about?" If the other party is polite, then she will be polite in return; if the other party is distant, she has no intention of being intimate.
"Whether we have something to talk about or not, we'll know once we've talked," Yan Mei said with a smile.
Le Yao: ...
This woman is quite the negotiator; however, she's come to the wrong person.
"Sorry, I don't really think there's anything to talk about. I need to get back and cook."
"Han Binglan." Yan Mei stepped forward and blocked Le Yao's path. "Don't you want to know some things about the Cui family?"
"The Cui family?" Le Yao frowned.
"Yes, for example... Trina, for example, your maternal grandmother..."
"Grandma?" Le Yao's eyes narrowed slightly. She had previously suspected that Cui Na's background might be problematic, but she lacked evidence. Now, Yan Mei's words confirmed her suspicions.
"Yes, can we find a place to sit down and chat now?"
"No." Le Yao didn't want to be manipulated at all. "My mother has been dead for so many years. Even if something happened, it's all in the past. Besides, neither my maternal grandmother nor my stepmother has ever done me any favors. Why should I care? It's better not to know than to know. In addition, if I really want to know something, I will find out myself." After saying that, she turned and left.
Yan Mei was stunned. Why was this brat so stubborn?
But she also knew that if she stopped her again, she would lose all initiative. So, in the end, she could only sigh in frustration and watch Le Yao leave.
Le Yao's heart was not as calm as it appeared. Apart from the sordid things she had found out about Tao Qing, there had been no new progress for the time being, so she was actually anxious. But at this moment, she was no longer anxious.
Where there's a problem, there are bound to be clues; it's just a matter of time now.
Le Yao didn't know what Yan Mei did afterward, but He Rong got into trouble. To be precise, her new boyfriend, Shan Huaming, got into trouble, which implicated her.
The reason was that at a construction site in the western suburbs of Xiling City, workers unearthed a skull while working, which terrified everyone. The person in charge of the construction site did not dare to take it lightly and hurriedly called the police.
