There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time. Just when Xia He thought the person on the other end might not have heard her clearly, the person spoke.
"With this much ability, what else do you want to do?"
The voice on the phone was so cold it was devoid of any warmth, as if it could freeze Xia He's entire world in the next second.
"I'm sorry, maybe I wasn't careful enough. She hadn't noticed it before, and I don't know why she suddenly came to tell me today."
"She contacted you to inform you that she already knows. Just because she didn't contact you doesn't mean she doesn't know. Xia He, you've overlooked this."
"sorry."
"Don't apologize to me. Instead of apologizing, let me see how you're going to cover up this mess." The voice on the other end of the phone was cold. After saying that, he didn't waste any more words with Xia He and hung up the phone directly.
Looking at the phone that had been hung up, Xia He's gaze fell into the distance. Just thinking about what the person on the other end had said, a vicious thought flashed through her mind.
Ye Xinning, I will let you know that even if you find out something, it still won't have any effect on me. I want you to experience the feeling of watching someone you care about get hurt and being completely helpless.
...
After seeing Xia He off, Ye Xinning returned to the living room. Ye Rouxin was on the phone. When she saw Ye Xinning come in, she said a few words and then hung up.
"Ningning, come here, Mom will sit here."
Ye Xinning walked over and sat down in front of Ye Rouxin.
"How was your business trip? Were you tired?"
Ye Xinning wanted to say she wasn't tired, but before she could finish speaking, Ye Rouxin said, "Look at what I'm saying. Going on a business trip must be tiring. Mom sees you've lost weight. I'll have the kitchen make some good food for you to eat later."
Ye Xinning, "..."
Has she lost weight?
It might not be because she was tired that she lost weight, but mainly because of what happened in France, one thing after another, which overturned her perceptions, plus Shen Lin's injury...
Thinking of Shen Lin, Ye Xinning couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Although she didn't visit Shen Lin during that time, she was worried and uneasy about Shen Lin's injury every day.
"I'm not tired, and it's good that I've lost weight. Don't people like people to be thin these days?"
She said it jokingly.
Ye Rouxin frowned and continued, "You're already very thin. Do you want to get so thin that you're just skin and bones? I'll ask Auntie to make you some more delicious food. We can't let you keep getting thinner now that you're back home."
Every word Ye Rouxin said was full of care and love for Ye Xinning. Hearing these words, Ye Xinning felt a mix of emotions.
She never imagined that one day she could sit down and talk to Ye Rouxin like this. In the past, every time they met, all they did was argue and complain. They never tried to see things from each other's perspective.
But now, Ye Rouxin is able to see things from her perspective and shows her the care she never dared to hope for before.
For some reason, Ye Xinning always felt a sense of unreality.
So, after Xia He stopped giving her the medicine, Ye Rouxin changed so much. Does that mean that the reason their mother-daughter relationship became like before was entirely due to Xia He?
If this is the result, then what was Xia He's reason for administering the medicine? Is this a one-to-one correspondence?
In Ye Xinning's mind, countless questions kept emerging. She kept trying to break through this circle and find out who was behind Xia He, but she couldn't find out no matter what she did. This made Ye Xinning's mind feel like it was shrouded in a fog.
"Ningning."
Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, Ye Rouxin called out her name.
Ye Xinning snapped out of her daze and tilted her head to look at her. "Hmm, what's wrong?"
"What were you thinking about just now? I called you and you didn't hear me."
"I wasn't thinking about anything, I was just spacing out."
"so."
Ye Rouxin didn't take it to heart and started talking to her about other things, "I ran into Shen Lin's father at a dinner party last time."
Shen Lin's father?
Ye Xinning lowered her head and didn't say anything.
Ye Rouxin added, "Shen Lin's father told me that Shen Lin also went to France on a business trip. Can you tell Mom whether Shen Lin went to France on a business trip or for you?"
Ye Xinning lowered her eyes, playing with her fingers, wondering how the topic had somehow turned to her and Shen Lin's affair. "It was Shen Lin who went to France. As for whether it was for me, I can't answer that question, Mom. If you really want to know, you can ask Shen Lin yourself."
"Then, when Mom asks, will you say yes or no, okay?"
"you say."
"How did you feel when Shen Lin went to France?"
"I don't feel anything."
"Does he want to remarry?"
Ye Xinning thought of Shen Lin's performance and said, "Hmm."
"And you?"
"I didn't have that idea."
At this point, Ye Xinning had already made her attitude very clear, but Ye Rouxin still asked, "Since he is willing to admit his mistake, why not give him another chance? Isn't that also giving yourself a chance?"
Almost everyone says this to her. Ye Xinning doesn't answer, but looks away. "Let's talk about it later. I can make my own judgments. You don't need to worry about me, Mom."
In the past, Ye Rouxin would have said more when she heard Ye Xinning say such things, but at this moment, Ye Rouxin chose to respect Ye Xinning's decision.
"You can decide for yourself. As for anything else, I believe you are capable of making your own judgments."
"Hmm." The story about her and Shen Lin is actually quite simple.
"mom."
"Hmm, what's wrong?"
Thinking of Xia He, Ye Xinning tentatively asked Ye Rouxin, "What do you think of Xia He?"
"Xia He? She's great. Since she came to the company, she's helped me solve a lot of problems. Whether it's work or handling matters involving five people, she's done a very good job. I don't think there's anything to complain about."
"So, if I said I felt Xia He wasn't suitable to stay at the Ye Group, would you let her go, Mom?"
"Let Xia He leave?"
Ye Rouxin looked at Ye Xinning in shock, "Why? Is there something wrong with her work?"
"It's not a work-related matter."
"If it's not work-related, then what is it?" Ye Rouxin continued to press.
Ye Xinning pursed her red lips, but ultimately said nothing.
She was troubled by this. She had no evidence that Xia He had drugged her. Simply saying that Xia He had switched the medicine would only make her case seem extremely weak.
"Never mind, I was just saying."
