She chuckled lightly, took Yi Ruihua's hand, and walked home, recounting those long-forgotten stories.
"I haven't told you about Zimo's ungrateful ex-wife yet. She's a woman from a lowly background. She was lucky to be able to marry our Zimo, and she doesn't appreciate it. If Zimo hadn't been so determined to marry her, I wouldn't even consider her!"
Her words were full of disdain for Su Yan, and she concluded with a concluding remark.
"She's a classic example of someone with sky-high ambitions but a fragile life!"
When Yi Ruihua heard this, he just smiled and added a comment, taking it as a joke, but didn't take it to heart at all.
"There are still people who don't know what's good for them."
"Yes! I was out of my mind for a moment and thought I saw her. A woman of her background and experience would never even cross the border into this place in her entire life!"
He Yunxin walked into the house chatting and laughing, and saw Meng Jie who hadn't had time to go upstairs yet.
With these two enemies meeting, He Yunxin's arrogance grew even stronger.
She abruptly changed the subject, pretending not to notice Meng Jie's expression, and said to Yi Ruihua, "I've already said I don't like overly lively occasions. For our wedding anniversary, we can just have a family gathering; there's no need to book the venue at Nanhai Qing!"
She deliberately emphasized the words "Nanhaiqing" (南海青), saying, "That's so expensive! I've heard that some people can't even book a venue six months in advance! There's no need to be so extravagant. I really feel sorry for how hard you work to earn money! Unlike some people who really think they're something special and spend your money recklessly!"
Seeing that she kept provoking Meng Jie, Yi Ruihua hurriedly pulled her away, but instead of stopping her, she only made her speak louder and louder.
"Some people should take note! No matter what you do, the money and the children belong to the Yi family. They have nothing to do with you. You should just stick to your own place!"
He Yunxin was practically shouting through a megaphone.
Meng Jie didn't even bother to glance at her and went straight upstairs.
Wu Fen glared angrily at He Yunxin and followed her upstairs.
She felt indignant on Meng Jie's behalf: "Madam, aren't you going to do anything about it? She's been staying here for a few days and has turned the house into a complete mess!"
Meng Jie ignored her words and picked up her phone to call her secretary.
"Hey, whatever it takes, find a way to legally cancel all the cards under He Yunxin's name."
While Meng Jie was on the phone, Yi Ruihua kept talking to He Yunxin downstairs, saying, "Why did you have to provoke her?"
He Yunxin showed no fear whatsoever; on the contrary, she became increasingly bolder as she spoke.
"What's wrong? Who did I say? Did I mention her? She's the one who's taking it personally, so who's to blame!"
Yi Ruihua sighed as she listened to her aggressive words, then turned and went upstairs.
He Yunxin complained irritably behind him, "Where are you going! Our guest list isn't finalized yet!"
Yi Ruihua waved her hand without turning her head, "You decide for yourself, I'm tired."
"So tired! All I ever think about is being tired! I don't know where all these tiring things come from."
He Yunxin muttered to herself for a while, then began to enthusiastically plan the banquet guest list.
After going upstairs, Yi Ruihua did not rush back to her room, but hesitated before heading to the door of Meng Jie's study.
He lingered outside the study for a long time, but didn't have the courage to knock on the door.
Wu Fen came out and bumped right into him.
Wu Fen frowned as she looked at Yi Ruihua, who was acting suspiciously and almost got hit by the study door.
"Sir, what are you doing here?"
"Is Madam inside?" Yi Ruihua asked knowingly, with a smug smile.
"Inside, sir. Is there anything you need to see Madam for?"
Faced with Wu Fen's question, Yi Ruihua waved his hands frantically, "No, I was just asking, asking..."
Before he could argue, Wu Fen opened the study door and, without consulting Meng Jie who was sitting inside, said, "Madam, the master is looking for you."
When Yi Ruihua saw Meng Jie's melancholy gaze turn towards him, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go inside.
Wu Fen specially closed the study door for them and stood guard at the door, fearing that He Yunxin might come up and ruin their plans.
Meng Jie glanced at Yi Ruihua as he walked in, then quickly lowered her head, her gaze returning to the documents in her hands.
Seeing how busy she was, Yi Ruihua was about to say that he wouldn't disturb her when he heard Meng Jie speak up.
"What is it? Speak quickly."
Yi Ruihua rubbed his hands for a while before stammering out a sentence: "Um... Yunxin wasn't talking about you, don't take it to heart."
Meng Jie replied without looking up, "I don't think it was me. There are too many people in this family who just loaf around and do nothing. Who could it be? It couldn't be me. Don't you know that better than anyone? Why are you saying such obvious things?"
Yi Ruihua was choked up, the words stuck in her throat, and she couldn't spit them out for a long time.
Meng Jie stopped talking, and the study became so quiet that the only sound was the pen scratching across the documents.
Yi Ruihua stood there awkwardly for a long time before finally saying, "Yun Xin is not a bad person. She is very simple and says what she thinks. Don't put your thoughts on her; she can't handle it."
Meng Jie stopped writing abruptly, looked up, and stared intently at Yi Ruihua.
"And what about me? How vulnerable am I in your heart?"
Yi Ruihua subconsciously said, "You've been in the business world for so long, and you're already terrified of people just because of their reputation. You're not that fragile. In this kind of matter, don't act like a spoiled princess and argue with her. Wouldn't it be better to get along with her peacefully?"
Meng Jie's gaze turned noticeably colder as she looked at him. "Is there anything else you want to say?"
Yi Ruihua opened his mouth, "And in the future, she's still my woman, you should at least show her the basic respect..."
Meng Jie interrupted him directly, "Since you have nothing to say, then leave."
Yi Ruihua pursed her lips, gave her a deep look, and then walked out.
Lin Hui received He Yunxin's invitation call three days later, a call she had never expected.
She even doubted whether He Yunxin had made a mistake.
She hung up the phone and pondered for a long time, but still couldn't swallow her anger.
These past two days, Lin Hui has been unable to sleep well at night, especially since she keeps thinking about Meng Jie's threats. She feels that waiting any longer won't lead to anything good, so she might as well take the initiative.
He Yunxin is the best partner to cooperate with.
Lin Hui's knuckles turned white as she gripped her phone. "Since you insist on forcing me into a corner, then don't blame me for being ruthless."
