Chapter 9: Elders in Trouble
She was both angry and disappointed: "You can't blame anyone else for this. If you hadn't been so eager to take shortcuts, how would you have been caught red-handed? I told you long ago that there are some things you can't do, but you wouldn't listen. This time, I can't protect you either."
Looking at Gao Min's eyes, which were slightly red from worry, Ye Wanxi sighed once again that someone was really lucky to have met such a manager who would protect her without complaint.
"I don't need your protection. Do you have Wen Yuan's agent's contact information?"
“…Yes, there is.” Gao Min was slightly taken aback. “What do you want to do? Ask Wen Yuan for help? Don’t be naive, she won’t help you.”
"That's not necessarily true."
After a brief standoff, Gao Min finally gave Ye Wanxi Wen Yuan's agent's contact information, but her gaze towards Ye Wanxi held a hint of doubt and inquiry as she did so.
Wen Yuan's agent was somewhat surprised to receive Ye Wanxi's call.
"I have something very important to tell Sister Yuanyuan, and I hope you can help me pass the phone to her."
"You can tell me anything, and I will pass it on."
Ye Wanxi knew what he was thinking, but she didn't care. She just said quietly, "This concerns Sister Yuanyuan and her family. Can you take responsibility?"
The agent remained silent for a while, and when he spoke again, the person on the other end of the line had become Wen Yuan.
"I heard you have something you want to tell me?"
"Has Sister Yuanyuan been taking any medications to improve her health in recent years?"
Wen Yuan's face darkened: "Fang Tianlian told you this too."
Ye Wanxi couldn't help but chuckle: "Sister Yuanyuan, do you think that everything I told you last night was something he told me willingly?"
Wen Yuan also knew that this statement was ridiculous. Who would brag to their mistress about how many other mistresses they kept outside and how many illegitimate children they had?
Not to mention, based on what she has found out so far, Ye Wanxi and Fang Tian only came into contact after joining the film crew; they didn't know each other at all before that.
And it's been less than a week since they joined the film crew. In such a short time, would Fang Tian tell her all such a secret all at once?
"If he didn't tell you, how did you find out about these things?"
"To be honest, some of my elders know some fortune-telling skills. I learned a little from them when I was young, and I can know some things that ordinary people can't know."
Wen Yuan was stunned for a long time before she realized what Ye Wanxi meant, and her face immediately darkened: "Are you kidding me?"
“I know that Sister Yuanyuan can’t believe me right away. If it were me, I wouldn’t easily believe someone I’ve only met a few times either. So, I hope Sister Yuanyuan will give me a chance to prove myself.”
Wen Yuan remained silent for a long while before asking in a low voice, "How do you plan to prove yourself?"
"We met briefly yesterday, and I noticed that your forehead was slightly dark, and the lines on the bridge of your nose and forehead appeared faintly broken and dark. May I ask if you have any elderly people in your family?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Yuan's eyelids twitched, and her heart raced.
"……have."
"It's best to keep a close eye on the elderly these days and try to avoid letting them go out alone."
"You mean, something might happen to my grandfather?"
"I've said what I needed to say. Whether you believe me or not is up to you."
Wen Yuan remained silent, which was within Ye Wanxi's expectations.
"Whether it's true or false, Sister Yuanyuan can verify it herself. Once Sister Yuanyuan has confirmed it, we can talk about what to do next."
