Chapter 200 Inquiry
Ye Rou clicked on the system page, and the progress bar of eating melons showed halfway. Obviously, there was still a follow-up to this melon. She thought about it and realized that Zhu Cheng, the other person in the incident, had not appeared yet.
She had a hunch that Zhu Cheng would also come to see her grandfather. Thinking of this, she quickly said to her grandfather, "Grandpa, please be sure to call me when Zhu Cheng comes home."
"Okay." Zheng Zhiyuan agreed readily.
The world is indeed beautiful, but the sinisterness and complexity of a human heart far exceeds the capacity of the world.
He hoped to let Ye Rou see more of these dark sides and be more wary of people.
He suffered this loss back then, and he didn't want Ye Rou to follow his old path.
You can be kind, but you cannot be blindly kind.
You can be gentle, but you can’t be without edge.

Song Xiaoqin stood guarding the door early in the morning with her arm wrapped in gauze.
The wolf didn't actually hurt her yesterday. The huge creature jumped out and scared her. She panicked and lost her balance, and her arm hit the protrusion of the rockery, causing a serious cut.
When she saw the wolf defensively blocking the entrance to the inner courtyard, she knew she couldn't get in.
I wanted to shout to call out Jiang Chen, but there was no movement in the inner courtyard, and instead I attracted my aunt.
When her aunt asked her how she got injured, she said that a wolf bit her when it wanted to eat her. In this way, she successfully stayed in this yard and got one step closer to Jiang Chen.
She waited for a while and saw Ye Rou and Jiang Chen coming out holding hands. She quickly pretended to groan in pain.
Ye Rou stopped and thought that the girl in front of her was probably Leng Po's niece, the one who was hurt by Xiao Huihui yesterday.
"How is your wound?" Ye Rou asked with concern.
Song Xiaoqin's attention was all on Jiang Chen. She noticed the man's sharp gaze, her heartbeat quickened, her cheeks flushed, and she suddenly felt like she was neither sitting nor standing. She was so panicked that she didn't know what to say.
Ye Rou looked at Song Xiaoqin and tilted her head slightly.
Something is wrong.
Jiang Chen raised his eyelids and glanced at Leng Po who was following behind with a lunch box.
That look was extremely cold and contained some impatience.
He reached out to take the lunch box, put his long arm around his wife, and his cold expression softened a little. "Let's go, I'll take you to work."
Ye Rou glanced at Song Xiaoqin and saw that the blush on her cheeks had not yet faded, so she walked away.
The jeep parked at the door drove away.
Song Xiaoqin stretched out her uninjured hand to press her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Chen's oppressive feeling was too strong, making her nervous.
But Song Xiaoqin likes strong men, especially Jiang Chen who is rich and handsome, she likes him even more.
Moreover, she believed from the bottom of her heart that she and Jiang Chen were destined to be together. Otherwise, why was she chosen to be sent here to seduce Jiang Chen? If this wasn't fate, what was it?
She was lost in thought when a large hand like a pair of pliers grabbed her shoulders and pulled her up.
Song Xiaoqin looked up in panic, only to be met with her aunt's exceptionally cold expression.
"Aunt?"
She was lifted up and asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"
Leng Po didn't answer, but dragged her roughly back to the next yard.
"Auntie, what are you doing?" Song Xiaoqin raised her injured arm and said unhappily, "I'm still injured!"
Leng Po said coldly: "You don't remember anything I said."
Song Xiaoqin frowned slightly.
Seeing that she couldn't remember, Leng Po reminded her: "I told you not to disturb Miss Ye, there won't be a second time, but you made a mistake again."
Song Xiaoqin complained: "You are my aunt, why are you so mean?"
She lowered her voice and said, "Isn't Ye Rou just pretty? She has nothing else to offer except her face. If I seduce Jiang Chen, I will be the master of the compound, and you, my aunt, won't have to be a servant anymore!"
"Don't dream." Leng Po poured a basin of cold water on her and said, "Just stay here and leave when school starts."
After saying this, Leng Po turned and left.
Song Xiaoqin held her aching arm and looked at her back with jealousy in her eyes.
Leng Po suddenly stopped and turned to look at her.
Song Xiaoqin quickly changed her expression and forced a smile, but unfortunately her expression changing skills were not good enough and her smile looked ugly, like crying.
When Leng Po looked at her, she thought of her good sister, the accomplice who conspired with her husband to sell her daughter. She suppressed her impatience and said coldly, "Don't commit suicide. You can still live."
Unfortunately, Song Xiaoqin didn't listen to her warning at all.
She was thinking that school would start in 19 days and she had to hurry to seduce Jiang Chen.

In the car, Ye Rou held her chin in her hand. When the car stopped at the intersection, she suddenly asked, "Jiang Chen, will you cheat on me?"
"No." Jiang Chen answered quickly.
"Oh." After hearing the answer, Ye Rou turned to look at the scenery outside the car window.
Seeing that she stopped asking, Jiang Chen held her hand and shook it.
"What's wrong?" Ye Rou turned around and looked at him.
Jiang Chen felt that the question was ended too quickly, and asked with some dissatisfaction: "What do you mean by oh?"
Ye Rou likes Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen is tall, handsome, young and promising. Naturally, other girls will like him, which proves that she has good taste.
Liking someone is a matter of a moment. Any one of appearance, money, and character can touch a person's heart.
If she were to be on guard against every girl who liked Jiang Chen and then question him, it would only mean that she was really too idle and had nothing to do.
Ye Rou knew she couldn't tell Jiang Chen directly. "Oh" meant she didn't want to get jealous or care about it, so she changed it to something more pleasant: "Husband, I believe you."
Jiang Chen really stopped asking.
Ye Rou knew that Jiang Chen would fall for this trick. Although he looked tall and strong, he was actually very easy to coax.
Jiang Chen rarely experienced the feeling of guilt.
The jeep stopped outside the hospital and Ye Rou got out with her lunch box and a small bag on her back.
Jiang Chen looked at his wife's back and tightened his grip on the steering wheel.

Zhu Li pulled Feng Kangcheng aside to chat. She was wearing brightly colored nail polish, large rose-red hoop earrings dangling exaggeratedly, and the smell of perfume on her body was pungent.
Unlike other nurses, she did not wear a white coat in a formal manner. Her white coat had been modified and was extra slim-fitting.
"Old Feng, let me ask you, what is Ye Rou's origin?"
Beijing is a place full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and there are too many people you cannot afford to offend.
The reason why she disliked Ye Rou was that she believed from the bottom of her heart that having her as the only beautiful person in the hospital was enough.
Zhu Li wanted to drive Ye Rou away, but when she heard from the hospital staff that Ye Rou knew Dean Ying, she didn't dare to act immediately. She thought it would be better to ask clearly first.
"I really don't know about that." Feng Kangcheng said with a wry smile.
"Who in this hospital doesn't you know?" Julie said jokingly, "Don't play along with me. Tell me now."
Feng Kangcheng sighed and said, "I really don't know."
Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Zhu Li's expression changed slightly. "Then do you know who her boyfriend is? She definitely doesn't live in the military area, but she can come to work there, and she's picked up and dropped off by car every day. Her background must be quite impressive. Lao Feng, have you seen Ye Rou's husband? What does he look like? Is he handsome?"
"If you're so curious, why don't you ask me?"
A gentle and sweet voice sounded.
Julie froze and slowly turned back.
