Everyone looked towards the doorway and saw the Fourth Master Xiao, whom they were discussing.
Fu Mengyao followed behind him.
Tang Yaoyao's eyes held a hint of a smile.
Those who should have come and those who shouldn't have, all showed up today.
Fu Mengyao stepped into the room and saw this scene. Her face turned pale, especially when she saw Ye Xuan's disheveled state. She subconsciously wanted to back away.
At this moment, I feel like my heart is about to jump out of my chest.
How could this be?
She ran into her fourth brother at the hospital entrance and asked him why he was there too. He didn't say a word, his aura was icy and intimidating, and he treated her like she was invisible.
She wondered if he already knew that Tang Yaoyao was dead, which was why he was acting this way.
But now...
Tang Yaoyao leaned lazily against the headboard, her smile alluring, and gently curled her lips: "They came faster than I expected. Are they here to check if I'm really dead?"
"What are you saying? I just came to see my mom."
Qiao Yanzhi remained silent, her mind preoccupied with Ye Xuan's words. Her gaze remained fixed on the fourth brother's face, as if trying to discern something from his eyes.
Xiao Jinhan was unaware of what had happened at the hospital; his older brother had given him a brief account over the phone half an hour earlier.
His dark chestnut eyes locked onto her, who was chatting and laughing on the bed. He swallowed hard, ignored the others in the room, and strode forward to her side.
Tang Yaoyao sensed the suppressed anger emanating from him. Her heart skipped a beat. Knowing she was in the wrong, she forced a fawning smile onto her red lips, her appearance alluring and her voice sweet and seductive: "Fourth Brother, um, I was wrong..."
Su Mei: "..."
Wrong?
She was having a blast doing all of this.
Right now, it looks like a little lamb.
Brother Yao is admitting his mistake by doing all this behind Fourth Master's back.
In this world, the only person who can make Brother Yao obediently admit his mistakes is probably Fourth Master Xiao.
Fu Xiuchen and Gu Mobei seemed not to have heard anything, their expressions unchanged from before.
However, the others were left with the response: "...???"
Xiao Jinhan gave her a deep look, then turned around and looked at Ye Xuan kneeling on the ground. His calm gaze held an unyielding frost.
That gaze was as if it were directed at a dying person.
Qiao Yanzhi gradually came to believe what Ye Xuan said.
She knew the fourth brother too well. If she didn't care for and love him to the core, how could she show such an expression to the person who hurt Tang Yaoyao?
Fu Mengyao's heart ached terribly as she looked at him greedily, her heart filled with pain.
Why does he never share even a fraction of his love with her?
"Yao Yao".
Suddenly, Qiao Yanzhi spoke up, calling her name.
Fu Mengyao's heart skipped a beat. She looked at her, her eyes darting around, and said, "Mom..."
"You go kneel down too."
Fu Mengyao was stunned. She knew her mother's methods and understood her sister-in-law's ruthlessness.
The fact that her mother could calmly make her kneel down only means that Ye Xuan has already confessed, and there's no way to change the situation.
She stood by the wall for a long time without moving, until her sister-in-law took a step in front of her, then she quickly walked to Ye Xuan's side and knelt down.
She had already prepared her explanation.
She is, after all, her mother's only daughter, and her mother will consider their mother-daughter relationship and treat her leniently.
All she had to do was obediently admit her mistake and shift the blame to Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan glanced at Fu Mengyao beside her. She felt the atmosphere was particularly strange, even more frightening than when only Qiao Yanzhi was interrogating her earlier.
Then, looking at Xiao Jinhan, he seemed to have found a reason.
