"Aunt Ying, I know you and my mother are best friends, so I hope I can get your help."
Bai Ying on the other end of the phone curled her lips and smiled.
"Yan Ci, you know I'm your mother's good friend. This incident you've created has pushed your mother into the whirlpool of public opinion. I'm already doing you a favor by not scolding you. And you still want me to help you?"
"Your mother really raised you, a good son, but now you have a wife and forget your mother."
Wen Yanci looked calm, his brows relaxed, and he seemed not to care about the ridicule from the other end of the phone. He spoke calmly.
"Aunt Ying, I believe you are a reasonable person. This time it was my mother who framed Xu Qiu. I did this out of fairness and never said a single biased word from beginning to end."
Bai Ying sat in the office chair with a lazy posture and sneered.
"Oh, can a daughter-in-law be on equal footing with her mother?"
"Even if your mother did something wrong, as a daughter-in-law you should be more tolerant."
"Yan Ci, you're so smart, why did you make such a mistake in this matter?"
"If you do this, your mother will dislike Lin Xuqiu even more. Won't it be even more difficult for you to be caught in the middle?"
Wen Yanci also stood calmly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the president's office and spoke in a cold tone.
"Aunt Ying taught me that."
"But now that things have come to this, I just want to handle this matter better. For now, I can only ask for your help."
"I heard that your jewelry brand hasn't yet been placed in the display cases of European luxury jewelry stores. This isn't a difficult task for me, and I'm willing to make it easier for you..."
Bai Ying thought to herself that Wen Yanci was quite sensible, and this condition really sounded attractive to her.
She was worried that her jewelry brand could not enter the European high-end luxury market, and this was an opportunity.
Besides, she didn't really hate Lin Xuqiu.
Last October, she returned to China to help her friend teach Lin Xuqiu a lesson, but she couldn't find anyone at all, so she could only accompany Ye Rong to relax.
During that time, she discovered that Lin Xuqiu was not as bad as her friends said. It was more because of Ye Rong's worry that she always thought the worst of things about Lin Xuqiu.
The reason why she verbally criticized Wen Yanci this time was entirely because she was biased towards her best friend Ye Rong.
After weighing the pros and cons for a few minutes, Bai Ying spoke.
"Yanci, Arong and I are like sisters, so naturally I hope her family will be harmonious and prosperous, so I will definitely help you with this favor."
A gleam of light flashed in Wen Yanci's eyes, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.
"Thank you, Aunt Ying."
“…”

Wen family.
Ye Rong was so angry about the rumors on the Internet these days that she couldn't eat or sleep well, and she even lost interest in playing mahjong.
Now she didn't want to see those ladies at all. They might be laughing at her in their hearts.
So she complained to her best friend Bai Ying, full of resentment.
"Aying, being a mother is really meaningless. The son I raised with so much effort has turned against me and doesn't care about my life or death at all."
"Yan Ci is deliberately trying to piss me off. During the last letter incident, he took that woman to a concert and then hid her for two months, fearing I'd find her. He was guarding against me like a thief."
"It's the same this time. He only cared about that woman and took her skiing, but left me in this whirlpool of public opinion. He didn't even give me an explanation after I came back..."
Bai Ying, who was far away in England, no longer had the indignation she had before. After all, she was on a mission at the moment, so she listened to Ye Rong's complaints with a helpless look on her face, and then spoke.
"Arong, your children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. This time, you are indeed wrong. I will help the right side, not my relatives."
"If you keep dwelling on it, nothing will come of it."
Ye Rong felt even more aggrieved. She found that no one around her seemed to be on her side.
"Aying, if you were in my place, could you really swallow this?"
Bai Ying paused for a moment, sighed softly, and spoke slowly.
"Arong, what I've been through is much more serious than what you've experienced, so I won't talk about those old stories."
"Let's talk about what happened in recent years. When I found out that my only son liked women's clothing, I was even more desperate than you. I did a lot of things to force him, and finally pushed him to commit suicide..."
"Luckily, he was rescued, otherwise I might regret it for the rest of my life."
"Well, later I figured it out. Let him do whatever he wants, as long as it's not against the law."
"Now our broken mother-son relationship has been repaired. Although I lost my handsome son, I gained a beautiful daughter, so I can say I have both a son and a daughter."
"He also has a British boyfriend who loves him very much. The two of them are busy with their women's clothing business. I can also continue my jewelry business with peace of mind. Everything is moving in the right direction."
Ye Rong was so shocked by her best friend's words that she was stunned for a long time. She felt complicated and had infinite sympathy in her heart.
"Aying, why haven't I heard you say this before?"
"You know my personality. I'm very competitive, so I wouldn't go around telling people about my dirty laundry. But later on, I came to terms with it and decided there was no need to. You live your life for yourself, not for others to see."
"I'm telling you this because I want to enlighten you."
Ye Rong felt a little guilty after hearing what she said. Wasn't she the one who spread the family's dirty laundry everywhere?
"Ah, Ying, I..."
Bai Ying ignored Ye Rong's hesitation and continued speaking.
"Arong, I'm telling you this because your two sons are not young anymore. It's time to let go. They chose their own path, and they will bear the brunt of the consequences."
