Mr. Ye, who had just finished a meeting, returned to his office and saw a box on his desk. How could he not recognize this box?
Seeing the familiar box and smelling the familiar aroma, Mr. Ye's smile deepened. He seemed to find his work even less tiring.
Mr. Ye didn't quit because he felt tired; he just thought his son might like it, or perhaps his son didn't want to work with him, so he simply quit.
…
After lunch, Ye Zhi took his wife back to their little home.
Wan Ge wasn't really familiar with this house, having only stayed for two days. So, when she wandered around alone in the afternoon, she actually got lost.
She saw a main road and went out, but before she had gone a few steps, she heard a woman cursing.
This is an affluent area, so it's quite curious to hear someone speaking so loudly here.
Wan Ge followed the sound and saw a mean-spirited middle-aged woman pushing a delicate girl.
Wan Ge helped the girl up, looking at the delicate, innocent-looking girl before him. The girl was frail, her body as fragile as her personality—she seemed like someone who could be blown away by a gust of wind. Was she being abused by her stepmother?
The plot didn't delve too much into the female lead's story, but I vaguely remember that her father doted on her.
"Are you alright?" Wange helped the girl steady and asked softly.
Yao Jingzhi looked up and saw a very beautiful girl. Because of her poor health, she didn't go out often and didn't have many close friends. She spent her time at home watching dramas and reading books. Of course, she recognized the girl in front of her.
Although she never follows celebrities, seeing girls who are even more beautiful in real life than on camera makes her heart beat a little faster for no reason.
Yao Jingzhi's cheeks flushed slightly as she nodded gently.
After standing properly, Yao Jingzhi said to the middle-aged woman in front of her, "Auntie, I really didn't bully Manman."
"You still say you didn't? I saw it all! You were the one bullying Manman! Manman is still so young, how could you, as her older sister, bully her!" The other person's righteous indignation made it seem like she had really seen everything.
Wan Ge looked up and said, "Isn't there surveillance footage? We can just check it out and find out."
At that moment, the middle-aged woman followed Wan Ge's gaze and indeed saw the surveillance camera. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
She had no idea when the surveillance cameras were installed. Why did he install them? Was it because he didn't trust her? Did he think she would bully his daughter?
Yao Jingzhi said softly to Wan Ge, "My dad installed the surveillance cameras, and only he can see them."
"Since that's the case, why don't you let your dad take a look? It'll be a good opportunity for him to uphold justice. Anyway, you didn't bully her, so what are you afraid of?" Wange softened her tone as she spoke to the frail girl in front of her.
Yao Jingzhi lowered her head, looking conflicted. She knew very well that if she told her father, her aunt and her half-sister would likely be kicked out, but...
"You're not still thinking of helping them, are you? They've already bullied you; they might go even further one day." The young protagonist was indeed kind, unable to bear hurting others and only knowing how to suffer herself. However, after her father fell ill and passed away, her stepmother was never kind to her.
