"Now, the only thing I care about is that if he hadn't been in a car accident, hadn't forgotten me, and if I hadn't gone abroad, would none of these things have happened? So, thinking about it carefully, perhaps everything really was just destiny."
It was destined that she and Shen Lin were not suitable for each other, and it was destined that she and Shen Lin should not be together.
"Miss, before, you couldn't accept that the child was Mr. Shen and Jiang An's. Now, the child is yours and Mr. Shen's. Are you still determined to separate from Mr. Shen?"
Ye Xinning lowered her head, her voice calm. Having experienced so much, she seemed to be able to control her emotions better and better. "So much has happened. His aunt left, and his grandmother suffered a stroke and is bedridden. What stands between us is not just the child. Let it go, Aunt Wen. Separating at this time is actually better for both of us."
Once Ye Xinning makes a decision, no one can change it.
Aunt Wen understood this, so in the end she could only sigh.
Thinking of the child, Aunt Wen asked Ye Xinning about her plans. "Does Miss intend to keep that child with her?"
Ye Xinning fell into deep thought because of Aunt Wen's words.
After a long time, she finally answered Aunt Wen, "I haven't decided yet either."
Aunt Wen patted Ye Xinning's hand reassuringly, "It's alright, Miss, take your time to think it over. Don't put too much pressure on yourself."
Ye Xinning looked at Aunt Wen gratefully and said, "Let Shen Lin go. I won't see him. Besides, at this time, no matter what we say when we meet, it won't mean anything to either of us."
"Okay, I'll go tell Mr. Shen."
...
Aunt Wen went to convey Ye Xinning's message to Shen Lin, but Shen Lin did not leave, as if he had not heard it.
Aunt Wen knew she couldn't change his mind, so she let him be.
The next morning, Ye Xinning went down to the living room, where Ye Weiran was holding the results of her investigation.
"Auntie, the investigation you asked us to conduct has been completed."
Ye Xinning and Ye Weiran sat down on the sofa. Ye Weiran handed the documents in her hand to Ye Xinning. As Ye Xinning looked at them, she said, "I asked Lu Jingyan to investigate with Mu Mingwei in France. Sure enough, they found a lot of things. Jiang An and Xia He are two people that Mu Mingwei contacted one after the other. At first, we all thought it was just a coincidence, but as we investigated further, we found that Mu Mingwei contacted these two people with a purpose, or rather, Mu Mingwei contacted these two people because she knew about their grudges with you."
Ye Xinning had already seen the information. Her gaze lingered on that spot for a long time before she spoke, "So, Jiang An is Xia He's missing sister from back then."
Ye Weiran nodded, "Yes, that's exactly what we found out. Moreover, Mu Mingwei must have deliberately concealed this fact. Otherwise, how could it have taken so long for Xia He to be unable to find out where her sister is?"
Ye Xinning held the documents in her hand, Mu Mingwei...
If Xia He knew that Aunt Mu, whom she trusted most, had been using and hurting her and her sister from the very beginning, I wonder how Xia He would feel.
Ye Xinning immediately asked Aunt Wen to meet with Xia He and tell her everything she had found out.
When Aunt Wen returned, she told Ye Xinning that Xia He was devastated when she found out. If she had known this earlier, Xia He would not have hurt Jiang An for revenge.
Ye Xinning listened to Aunt Wen's words with a blank expression until late afternoon when she received a call from Zhou Yun.
On the phone, Zhou Yun hesitated, and Ye Xinning asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Zhou Yun?"
"Miss, Xia He ran away, trying to find Jiang An, but she got into a car accident during the process."
There was a car accident...
Ye Xinning gripped her phone tightly and asked, "How is it?"
"The car accident was very serious; his heart almost stopped beating on the spot."
Ye Xinning closed her eyes, not expecting that Xia He's appearance and subsequent complete departure would only take two or three days.
Xia He could have had another option.
She survived after jumping into the sea. If she had chosen to let go of her hatred and stop seeking revenge, how could she have ended up like this?
However, Xia He did so many wrong things, so she deserved this ending.
Ye Xinning remained silent for a long time before speaking, "I understand. I'll leave the rest to you."
"Yes, no worries, Miss, leave all these matters to me."
After hanging up the phone with Zhou Yun, Ye Xinning told Ye Weiran about Xia He's accident. Ye Weiran didn't think much of it, saying, "Evil people get their just desserts, they deserve it."
"Xia He's matter is settled, and I'm going back to Nancheng."
"So fast?"
"Um."
Ye Weiran thought of Shen Lin, who had been waiting at the door for the past few days, and then asked Ye Xinning, "Auntie, what are your thoughts on your relationship with Uncle?"
“After I go back to Nancheng this time, I will go through the divorce proceedings with him.”
"What about the child?"
Ye Xinning lowered her eyes and said after a long while, "He has no feelings for me, so let's just leave him to Shen Lin. Besides, the Shen family's conditions are there, so I don't need to worry about whether he will have a good or bad life in the future."
"That's true."
...
On the day Ye Xinning left Yecheng to return to Nancheng, Shen Lin followed her all the way from Ye Weiran's house to the airport, and then flew on the same flight as Ye Xinning, sitting next to her.
Looking at the deliberately arranged seating, Ye Xinning once again marveled at Shen Lin's financial power.
Once on the plane, she thought Shen Lin would pester her to talk about the child, Jiang An, and their marriage.
But Chen Lin didn't say anything. She only asked the flight attendant to bring her a blanket at the beginning, and then she didn't speak again.
Although Ye Xinning was surprised, he was also happy to have some peace and quiet.
The plane landed at Nancheng Airport. Ye Xinning walked out of the airport hall and looked at the people chasing after her. Finally, she couldn't bear it any longer and turned around to ask Shen Lin.
What do you want?
"I'll take you back."
"No need, my mom has arranged for a driver to pick me up."
"If you don't let me deliver it, I'll just keep following you around, I don't care."
Ye Xinning, "..."
So, does this man really have to keep pestering me like this?
"You promised you'd just drop me off at the door and leave?"
"Okay, I'll leave when I get to the door."
"good."
Ye Xinning and Shen Lin got into one car, while the others got into another.
Sitting in the back seat of the car, with Shen Lin beside her, Ye Xinning wore a thick coat and deliberately pulled it up a bit when she sat next to Shen Lin.
Shen Lin didn't notice her action, only staring at her intently. "These past few days, I've been waiting for you at Ye Weiran's door."
"I know."
“I know you know that you don’t want to come out and see me, and I also know that you still have resentment in your heart. I’m sorry, Ningning. It was my negligence from the beginning. If I had thought earlier that there might be other hidden reasons for the child, things might not have turned out this way.”
"Chen Lin, are you saying all this to try and morally blackmail me using this child?"
