Madam Gu, of course, refers to Mu Mingwei.
When the conversation got to the crucial point, Ye Xinning remained calm. "Really? In that case, Mrs. Gu is indeed a kind-hearted person."
"Mrs. Gu is a pitiful person. Ever since the eldest son of the Gu family disappeared, Mrs. Gu has rarely gone out after being hit hard. In the past, Mrs. Gu really cared about the students of our school. I remember there was a Chinese girl whose name was something. She was in very difficult circumstances, and it was Mrs. Gu who supported her so that she was able to finish her studies and graduate smoothly."
Ye Xinning raised an eyebrow. "Really? That's a lucky girl. May I know her name?"
"I'm really sorry, Miss Ye, it's been so long that I can't remember the girl's name anymore."
Ye Xinning raised her eyes, her gaze falling on the person before looking away after a few seconds. "It's nothing, I was just asking casually."
After taking a walk around Sciences Po in Paris, Ye Xinning left with Aunt Wen.
Aunt Wen whispered in Ye Xinning's ear, "Miss, do you think that person really forgot, or is deliberately hiding it?"
"It shouldn't be intentional concealment. If he wanted to conceal something, he wouldn't have said that in the first place."
Wen Yu thought about it and agreed, "So what's the next step?"
"Aunt Wen, keep investigating. Compare the information with Xia He's. You must find out if Xia He is the person Mu Mingwei is sponsoring."
"Yes, miss."
The two left together. When they got outside the school, Aunt Wen went to get the car, while Ye Xinning walked slowly ahead to wait for her.
Little did she know that her walking alone was being watched by a man in a car not far away.
The man's gaze was fixed on her, and he didn't look away for a long time.
The man didn't look away until Aunt Wen's car arrived and Ye Xinning got in.
Zhou Yun watched the car disappear, then looked at her husband.
"Sir, won't you go down and talk to Miss Ye?"
Ji Jianshen shook his head. "It's not appropriate to see her at this time."
Zhou Yun couldn't understand why meeting someone had to be either appropriate or inappropriate. Wasn't it just a matter of meeting someone whenever you wanted?
"Miss Ye didn't know you were in France. If she did, she would probably love to meet you."
"Let's wait until things calm down." Ji Jianshen remained silent for a long time before finally saying just this.
“Sigh.” Zhou Yun sighed, “Actually, now that things have come to this point, I think it wouldn’t matter if you told Miss Ye, sir. In my opinion, since Miss Ye has already investigated the school, the rest of the information won’t be far off. Rather than letting Miss Ye find out on her own, it would be better for you to tell her personally, sir.”
Ji Jianshen's gaze fell out the window, his voice low and deep, "We'll see."
Ji Jianshen's attitude clearly indicated that he did not want to talk about it anymore, so Zhou Yun did not say anything more.
"By the way, sir, the Shen family has been investigating very hard lately. If nothing unexpected happens, they will soon find their way to us."
Mentioning Shen Lin, Ji Jian's eyes darkened. After a long while, he spoke casually, but his tone was exceptionally cold, "If they find out, they find out. This day will come eventually."
"Should we do something to make it more difficult for him to investigate?"
"No need." Ji Jianshen replied calmly. Many things have come to this point, and there's no point in avoiding them anymore.
...
When Ye Xinning returned home, Song Zhengchu was already there.
Seeing her return from outside, Song Zhengchu sat on the sofa, his gaze falling on Wen Yu beside her.
Wen Yu had followed Song Zhengchu for so many years, how could he not know that Song Zhengchu was blaming him?
She lowered her head, not daring to speak.
Ye Xinning walked over and sat down next to Song Zhengchu. "Dad, why are you back so early today?"
Song Zhengchu simply looked at her and asked, "Where did you go?"
“I didn’t go anywhere. I was bored at home, so I asked Aunt Wen to accompany me around. I invited Aunt Wen, so if you’re angry, you can only be angry at me.”
Seeing how protective she was of Wen Yu, Song Zhengchu's anger vanished.
"How can I be angry with you? You're my precious daughter. If I'm angry, it's only at myself. Tell me, you're pregnant and you're still running around everywhere? What if something unexpected happens?"
Ye Xinning felt that Song Zhengchu was exaggerating a bit. "Dad, I'm just pregnant. It's not a big deal. It's okay."
“I wouldn’t be worried if you weren’t pregnant. But to be honest, I still think this child came at a bad time.”
Song Zhengchu hit the nail on the head, and without thinking, he said a few more words, expressing what he had wanted to say most in the past few days.
Ye Xinning listened and lowered her head in silence.
Song Zhengchu then realized that he had been too hasty and had not considered Ye Xinning's feelings.
“Ningning, it’s not that Dad dislikes you, nor is it that he opposes your decision. I just think it’s not worth it. That boy from the Shen family treated you like that, and you still had a child for him? He’s the one who got the better deal. Dad feels sorry for you working so hard, do you know that?”
Ye Xinning nodded. Everyone around her, whether it was Su Wan, her mother, or her father, was doing it all for her own good.
She also knew that none of them wanted her to bear all the pressure of giving birth to this child.
She understands that they are considerate of her feelings.
"Dad, give me a little more time. I can figure it out." After a moment of silence, Ye Xinning spoke, both to comfort Song Zhengchu and to remind herself once again.
She needs to make a decision quickly regarding whether or not to have the baby.
Hearing her say that, Song Zhengchu finally breathed a sigh of relief. "It's best that you think that way."
The two talked about other things, and just as dinner was about to be served, a maid suddenly came in and said, "Mr. Song, Miss, someone is looking for you outside."
Ye Xinning and Song Zhengchu exchanged a glance, and Ye Xinning asked, "Who is it?"
"Mr. Shen."
Mr. Shen? Shen Lin?
Ye Xinning was stunned. Shen Lin had come to France?
How did he know she was here?
"How dare he come here? He's had a child with another woman. What, does he think Ningning is easy to bully? I'll go out and teach him a lesson."
As Song Zhengchu spoke, he began to walk outside.
Ye Xinning stopped him, "Dad."
Song Zhengchu turned around, not understanding what she meant.
"Don't worry about him, he'll leave on his own when he can't see him."
"in spite of?"
"Um."
Since Ye Xinning said so, Song Zhengchu went along with her.
After the two finished their meal, Song Zhengchu went to the study, while Ye Xinning went back to her bedroom to read.
Looking down from her bedroom, she could see Shen Lin standing at the door, waiting since before dinner, and he still hadn't left.
However, this scene did not leave any trace in Ye Xinning's heart.
If only I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place. This leaves no trace in Ye Xinning's heart.
If only I had known then what I know now!
But what is he doing in France?
Is it the same as her goal?
