Ever since Cheng Yue accepted Ji Ming's money, she has stopped paying attention to Ye Huanhuan. Every day when Ye Huanhuan goes to school, Cheng Yue finds various excuses to avoid her.
Ye Huanhuan knew very well that Cheng Yue had a strong sense of self-esteem, and that she was probably worried that she would look down on her, which was why she acted this way.
She tried many times to explain things to Cheng Yue, but Cheng Yue simply wouldn't give her that chance.
Before we knew it, the day of the surgery arrived.
Cheng Yue had taken leave three days in advance. Ye Huanhuan learned from the doctor that Cheng Yue's mother did not come to take care of her during the surgery; instead, she hired a temporary caregiver.
Ye Huanhuan guessed that Cheng Yue's mother, who had received the money, was probably busy figuring out how to squander this windfall.
In the hospital ward.
Ye Huanhuan stood in front of the hospital bed, looking at Cheng Yue who was pretending to be asleep, feeling very helpless.
She had been in the ward for a long time, but Cheng Yue kept her eyes closed. No matter how much she called out to her, Cheng Yue refused to open her eyes and look at her.
She thought for a moment and then said, "Cheng Yue, after you've recovered from your surgery, how about we go out for hot pot together?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yue's eyelashes trembled slightly, but she did not open her eyes.
Ye Huanhuan continued, "Cheng Yue, I'll come to see you every day during your break. You can't fall behind in your studies, so I'll come over every day to tutor you, okay?"
Cheng Yue remained unmoved.
Ye Huanhuan sighed helplessly, "Cheng Yue, I really don't want to lose you as a friend. I understand that you may not know how to face me, but I have never looked down on you. In my eyes, you are more important than anything else."
Cheng Yue's body trembled slightly, her breathing became particularly erratic, and she even couldn't help but sob.
Just then, the doctor entered the ward and said to Ye Huanhuan, "Miss Ye, the surgery is about to begin. Miss Ji Wei is all ready. Miss Cheng Yue can go to the operating room now."
Cheng Yue slowly opened her eyes, tears welling up in them, and looked at Ye Huanhuan, saying:
"Ye Huanhuan, if I fail my final exams, it'll all be your fault!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Huanhuan's face lit up with a bright smile.
"Don't worry, with me here, you won't fail any courses."
Cheng Yue couldn't help but burst into laughter through her tears, stood up, and hugged Ye Huanhuan.
Thus, past grievances were resolved.

Meanwhile, at the Ye Group, in Ye Haiming's office.
At this moment, Ye Haiming's face was ashen, and his mind was in turmoil.
Just now, Sheng Tianxiang's father, Sheng Guochang, the former chairman of Dingsheng Group, called him and told him some terrifying news.
Back then, the gigolo that Ye Ting hired Sheng Tianxiang to keep caused a huge uproar at that charity gala.
But this is just the surface; the real culprit behind it all is the mayor of City S.
This explains why, during this period, companies under the Dingsheng Group have encountered one problem after another, causing their stocks to plummet and the Dingsheng Group to quickly go bankrupt.
The mayor was manipulating everything behind the scenes, leading to the rapid collapse of Dingsheng Group. Despite the Sheng family's best efforts to salvage the situation, they were unable to change the outcome of bankruptcy.
Now, the mayor of S City's next target is the Ye Group.
After years of struggling in the business world, this was the first time Ye Haiming had ever felt a chill run through his body.
He was somewhat confused as to how the Ye family had offended this powerful figure.
Could it be just because of that little conflict between Ye Ting and Ye Huanhuan at the banquet?
At this moment, the insults and curses Sheng Guochang had hurled at him over the phone kept echoing in his mind:
"Ye Haiming, don't be so smug. If it weren't for your good son, my Dingsheng Group wouldn't be in this state today. Do you think you can get away with it? Let me tell you! The mayor of S City's next target is your Ye family! He won't let you go! I'll watch as your Ye family slowly follows in the footsteps of our Sheng family. Then, you'll end up like me! Hahahaha..."
Ye Haiming's hand holding the phone trembled slightly, his face as pale as paper. His heart was filled with fear and unease, and for a moment he didn't know how to deal with this sudden crisis.
He recalled the various difficulties he had experienced over the years in the business world, but he had never felt so helpless and desperate as he did now.
He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
Now is not the time for self-pity; we must find a way to deal with this crisis!
Ye Haiming's mind raced, and he immediately thought of his beloved daughter, Ye Huanhuan.
Now, apart from Ye Huanhuan's husband Tang Yi, there is no one else who can help him.
He took out his phone and quickly dialed Ye Huanhuan's number, but unfortunately, she had already blocked his number. He was filled with remorse and regretted why he had stopped Ye Huanhuan from sending Ye Ru to prison.
At this moment, he paced anxiously back and forth in his office, constantly thinking about how to contact Ye Huanhuan and Tang Yi.
He quickly came up with an idea and dialed Secretary Liu's number.
