Chapter 217 (˙-˙)



Seeing that Ye Qi understood his hint, Zhu Yu turned around and returned to his seat.

For Ye Qi, it wasn't surprising that the Zhu family would get involved in this matter. After all, Madam Bo still had a son in the Bo family. The Zhu family had personally revitalized the Bo family, giving Bo Tingsheng, this illegitimate son, the opportunity to reap the benefits for nothing.

Don't even think about it.

They couldn't possibly be accomplices to evil, letting their own daughter waste her life there while their illegitimate child reaps the benefits.

After a moment's thought.

It's easy to understand the Zhu family's attitude.

With the support of the Zhu family, things actually went much more smoothly.

Seeing that Zhu Yu had left, Jiang Yihuan lowered her voice and told him what she had learned: "There's no need to give any hints to the Li family anymore."

"Why?" Ye Qi asked in a very soft voice.

"To be on the safe side, I made some inquiries and found out that your older brother had already negotiated a contract with them a long time ago. It seems that your older brother wanted to expand and enter the engineering industry recently."

"Your older brother has been working like a workaholic lately, constantly expanding the Ye family's influence and trying to get involved in many industries. Recently, people in the industry have been secretly saying that he's gone mad."

After hearing this, Ye Qi scratched her head in confusion: "Really?"

"I feel like everything is normal, just like before."

The eldest brother would come home on time every day to call them for dinner.

He didn't show any signs of fatigue.

I thought my work would be very relaxed lately.

But I never expected it to be this crazy.

"Hmm. I'll talk to him when I get back."

Health is the foundation of everything.

What if I ruin my health by staying up too long?

"Um."

Back home.

Ye Qi sat on the living room sofa, waiting for Ye Jingyan to return.

As evening approached.

Ye Jingyan hurriedly went home. When he arrived at the door, he composed himself, concealed his exhaustion, and walked to Ye Qi's side with a spirited expression.

He loosened his tie, his face relaxed, his voice gentle, and asked with a smile, "Why are you sitting here?"

"I'm going to wash my hands. We'll eat together later."

Ye Qi called out to her older brother, "Brother, I want to talk to you about something later."

"good."

Ye Jingyan returned after washing her hands and changing into casual clothes.

Ye Jingyan sat down next to Ye Qi, a smile playing on his lips: "What's wrong, Qi Qi?"

Ye Qi looked at Ye Jingyan's expression. He seemed to be very good at pretending, as if he was really at ease and had no sign of being tired.

But upon closer inspection, one can see the exhaustion that Ye Jingyan was putting on.

Ye Qi opened her mouth.

Then it closed.

My older brother is someone who likes to steal moments of leisure.

Apart from essential work, avoid doing other work if possible.

In his words.

that is:

"I just had a very high-paying job."

Dad won't suddenly dump a lot of work on him.

This indicates that he took on all the recent work on his own initiative.

Then—

She gave Ye Jingyan a knowing smile:

"You must be tired from work."

"Brother, you should also take care of your health while you're working."

She wouldn't try to persuade the other person to reduce their workload.

That was my brother's insistence.

She deserves respect.

Ye Jingyan seemed to understand something intuitively, and then smiled:

"Okay, thank you, little sister."

All the worries and fatigue in my heart softened, as if blown away by a gentle breeze.

"Let's eat." Ye Jingyan stood up.

After finishing the meal.

Ye Zhixi changed into a black workwear dress, her high ponytail tied with a black leather belt. She looked dashing, and her delicate and beautiful face appeared cold and elegant under the silk fabric.

Ye Qi wore a black short windbreaker paired with black cargo pants. Her shoulder-length hair looked dry in the breeze, and she exuded an aura of unapproachability that commanded respect.

The two of them coincidentally changed into all black, showing great tacit understanding.

It's like they're about to do something bad... oops, something big.
