She can change many things with her own abilities, but she cannot change her blood relationship with Ye Rouxin.
Unable to change the deep love and worry she felt for Ye Rouxin.
Shen Lin unbuckled his seatbelt, got out of the car, and walked around to her side.
He opened the car door, his expression gentle, completely different from the person who had grabbed her chin and spoken coldly before.
"get off."
Ye Xinning stared at him, thinking of what he had done in the car, and then of how she had softened a little because of his kindness and care in Beicheng.
Compared to the past, what happened in the North City felt like a dream, but now that she's back in the South City, Shen Lin is showing her through his actions that it's time to wake up from the dream.
Ye Xinning unbuckled her seatbelt and took Shen Lin's arm. Was he going to put on a show of affection?
Sure, she agreed.
The two walked into the Ye family home together. The maid was very happy to see her return. "Miss is back. Chairman Ye is waiting in the living room. Knowing that the young master and young lady were coming back, Madam had the kitchen start preparing lunch early."
Ye Xinning remained calm. Every time she returned, the maid would say these things, as if she were anxiously explaining to her how much Ye Rouxin cared about her.
Look, even the servants in the house know that the relationship between the mother and daughter is abnormal and strange enough, but Shen Lin seems unaware of this problem.
She was so unwilling to return to the Ye family, but Shen Lin had no idea why.
Upon arriving in the living room, just as the maid had said, Ye Rouxin was already waiting.
"They're here."
Shen Lin greeted her politely, and Ye Xinning sat down directly on the sofa, ignoring their pretense.
"Just got back from the north of the city, are you tired?"
"I said yes, I'm very tired. Can you let me go back and rest?" Ye Xinning asked with a half-smile.
Ye Rouxin remained calm, completely ignoring her displeasure.
"How did the cooperation talks in Beicheng go?"
Ye Rouxin's words were definitely directed at Shen Lin. Ye Xinning, very self-aware, started playing on her phone. She was also away on a business trip, but Ye Rouxin never asked her about her work. She didn't join Ye's Group but went to a law firm to become a lawyer. In Ye Rouxin's eyes, this was completely ridiculous, so naturally, she looked down on her job.
"smoothly."
"That's good……"
Ye Rouxin spoke with Shen Lin methodically, mostly about business matters, while Ye Xinning played with her phone.
About half an hour later, people started to arrive.
Ye Xinning looked at the people coming in one by one, and then at Huo Yanzhi, Mu Yinjing, and Huo Qijun walking in the crowd.
I roughly understood; they really were discussing the details of Huo Yanzhi and Mu Yinjing's marriage, and people from the Mu family had all come.
A mocking smile played on her lips. So she really considered this her home. She wondered if Mu Yinjing would live in the Ye family home after marrying Huo Yanzhi.
As soon as Huo Yanzhi entered, he noticed Shen Lin and Ye Xinning sitting on the sofa. When his gaze lingered on Ye Xinning, Shen Lin naturally placed his hand on Ye Xinning's waist. The two were very intimate, like a loving couple.
Huo Yanzhi's eyes darkened. He knew that this was not the case; it was just Shen Lin's display of possessiveness, something he was putting on for him.
"They're all here."
When Ye Rouxin saw that the guests had arrived, she stood up, poised and elegant, displaying the composure and warmth befitting a hostess.
Ye Xinning sat in his seat, watching the group of people exchange pleasantries.
This wasn't the first time Ye Xinning had met Mu Yinjing's family, but she showed no intention of greeting them.
Ye Rouxin lowered her voice, "Call someone, Ye Xinning."
Ye Xinning narrowed her eyes slightly, her smile so deep, "What do they have to do with me? I need to greet them."
Ye Rouxin had long guessed that she wouldn't be docile.
"Behave yourself and don't cause trouble. Today's occasion is very important."
Look, they're trying to make her behave again. She really doesn't know what she's doing. Is it really necessary to do this?
Oh, she forgot that in her mother's eyes, all those things with Huo Yanzhi were initiated by her.
Ye Xinning withdrew his gaze listlessly, fiddling with his fingers, completely detached from the situation.
Even so, some people still insist on bothering her.
Mu Yinjing was already resentful after being slapped last time. Now that her wedding with Huo Yanzhi was a done deal, she wasn't afraid and boldly provoked him.
"Xinning is back from her business trip. When did you arrive? You didn't even tell us beforehand. We could have come to pick you up."
Ye Xinning raised her eyebrows and glanced at Mu Yinjing.
Mu Yinjing did it on purpose; how could she not see that? It was precisely because she knew Mu Yinjing was doing it on purpose that she realized it.
So she tugged at the corners of her lips and smiled, "Miss Mu is so busy lately, yet you still have time to focus your energy on me."
"Of course, after all, after I married Yanzhi, I became your aunt."
Mu Yinjing was trying to use her seniority to pressure her, Ye Xinning said with a smile, "Alright, then I wish Auntie and Uncle a long and happy life together."
"Then thank you. Actually, you're a very nice person too, it's just that the opportunity wasn't very good."
There was a hidden meaning in his words, and everyone could hear it.
The opportunity isn't very good. What kind of opportunity isn't good? Are you referring to her and Huo Yanzhi?
Even on such an occasion, Mu Yinjing still remembered to mention this; she really went to great lengths.
Everyone thinks she loves Huo Yanzhi. Haha, she looked at Huo Yanzhi with a half-smile, as if to say, "See, it's all thanks to you."
"Alright, everyone's here, let's sit down and eat."
Huo Qijun beckoned everyone to the dining table, and Mu Yinjing deliberately walked in front of her, affectionately linking arms with Huo Yanzhi.
If you were to ask what Ye Xinning's mood was at this moment, it would be completely calm, and she even felt a little amused.
There were many people sitting at the table, but whether it was a coincidence or not, she was next to Shen Lin and opposite Huo Yanzhi.
Despite the seating arrangement, Mu Yinjing dared not say anything to everyone.
After sitting down, they began to discuss Huo Yanzhi's marriage to Mu Yinjing.
Ye Xinning, indifferent to the matter, continued eating.
But I don't know if the maid didn't notice today or what, but when plating the dishes, all her favorite dishes were placed to one side, so she couldn't even pick up a meatball.
Just as she was feeling down about it, a meatball suddenly appeared in her bowl, and she looked up.
Huo Yanzhi had already put away his chopsticks, his expression unchanged.
Ye Xinning stared at her with wide eyes.
So is he crazy? His fiancée, her husband, is sitting right next to him, and he's even putting food on her plate.
Ye Xinning looked at Shen Lin, who remained calm and composed, as if he hadn't seen what had just happened.
