If you're in a hurry, I can take you to him.
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue considered her current situation and shook her head in refusal.
"There's no rush for now. Given the current situation, this matter involves a wide range of issues and cannot be resolved overnight."
"Right now, let's finish investigating and dealing with things in the capital. Once the truth about Mother's background becomes clearer, we can go find Dongfang Yi later."
Regardless of whether anyone else was behind it, Jian Mingpeng was ultimately responsible for her mother's death, and she could not allow the murderer to go unpunished.
She will seek the truth behind it, but not now, and the present is not the best time.
She also knew that if her mother was indeed a member of the Dongfang family, and the Dongfang family had never had any daughters revealed to the outside world in recent years, then investigating this matter would certainly not be so easy.
She needs to know more before embarking on her quest for the truth. Otherwise, she might die before uncovering the truth.
Jian Mingpeng is the key to unlocking the secret, but given his character, he won't tell her who's behind it all.
She can only take it one step at a time; these things can't be rushed.
Ye Mohan nodded in agreement upon hearing Jian Yixue's words.
He wasn't unaware that now was not a good time to seek the truth; he was just afraid that Jian Yixue wanted to know the truth sooner rather than later.
As someone who dotes on his wife excessively, Ye Mohan would fulfill all of Jian Yixue's requests.
Even if he knew it was wrong, he would support her unconditionally as long as it didn't involve Jian Yixue's personal safety.
Even if there is real danger, he will protect her from the wind and rain and safeguard her.
"What are you planning to do next?" Ye Mohan asked.
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue narrowed her eyes and thought for a moment before saying, "The Jian family is my mother's life's work, and I don't want to see it decline because of Jian Mingpeng's personal problems."
My immediate priority is to control more than half of the shares in the Jian Group. That way, I will have the power to convene a board meeting, remove Jian Mingpeng from the position of chairman, and take over the Jian Group myself.
Jian Yixue's lips curled up, her eyes filled with a chilling coldness, and she continued, "Then we can better deal with Jian Mingpeng, right? Let him watch as everything he values slowly disappears from his hands. That would be quite interesting, wouldn't it?"
Ye Mohan felt a pang of sympathy as he looked at Jian Yixue, who was in a bad mood.
He reached out and hugged Jian Yixue, saying softly, "Don't be sad for people who are unrelated to you. It's not worth it. It will break my heart if you're sad."
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue shook her head. "I'm not sad, but when I think of my mother, I hate her so much."
"Yes, I know. If my mother-in-law were here, she certainly wouldn't want her beloved little princess to be unhappy."
Ye Mohan said calmly, holding Jian Yixue in his arms.
He could understand the pain in Jian Yixue's heart; losing her mother was already painful enough.
Now she also learned that her mother was killed by the man who slept with her.
How could she not hate!
But he felt sorry for her; seeing her in such agony made his heart bleed.
He couldn't help her much, so he could only offer her his embrace, letting her lean on him in the hope that it would make her feel less lonely.
At least with him by her side, she didn't have to silently endure the excruciating pain alone.
After listening, Jian Yixue nodded, recalling what her mother had once told her, and calmed her emotions.
"Yes, the most important thing right now is to get justice for my mother."
Hearing Jian Yixue's words, Ye Mohan felt a little relieved. "I'll help you."
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue immediately stepped out of Ye Mohan's embrace, shook her head at Ye Mohan who was so close to her, and frowned slightly. "No, I have my own way. Don't think of me as so weak."
I'm someone with some skills, after all. Don't treat me like a delicate flower in a greenhouse, unable to withstand the storms of life.
After listening, Ye Mohan's gaze fell on the seriousness in Jian Yixue's eyes. He patted Jian Yixue's hair and nodded with a helpless smile.
"Fine. I really can't do anything with you. But let me make this clear: if he crosses my line, I won't stand idly by."
Without giving it much thought, Jian Yixue asked curiously, "What's your bottom line?"
Ye Mohan smiled gently and looked at Jian Yixue with deep affection, "You."
Jian Yixue didn't understand for a moment.
How did she become Ye Mohan's bottom line?
Before Jian Yixue could figure it out, Ye Mohan's voice came again.
“I will not stand idly by if your personal safety is threatened in the slightest.”
Jian Yixue then understood, smiled, and nodded.
"I will take good care of myself, don't worry."
"Remember what you said."
Ye Mohan gave his instructions.
Jane nodded seriously.
The next morning, when Ye Mohan got up to go to work, Jian Yixue also got up.
After seeing Ye Mohan off, Jian Yixue drove away from the castle.

Baixi Apartment
"Ring ring~~~" The doorbell rang.
Upon hearing this, Youluo, who was sitting on the sofa drinking coffee, got up and walked to the door. She saw Jian Yixue through the peephole and opened the door.
"You've arrived."
Youluo looked at the person standing at the door and spoke.
Jian Yixue nodded, said "Mmm," and then went into the room.
Youzhu, who had just come out of the room, saw Jian Yixue and greeted her, "Boss."
Jian Yixue nodded, walked straight to the sofa and got off, glancing at the two of them, "You two come here, I have something to tell you."
Upon seeing this, Youluo and Youzhu sat down.
"Ye Mohan has already told me the results of the investigation. You've all worked hard during this time. I'll have Feng give you a short vacation when we get back. For now, you'll have to stay and help me."
Jane Yixue said with a serious expression.
Looking at Jian Yixue, who was expressionless in front of her, Youluo knew the pain she was suppressing in her heart.
That's just the kind of person she is; if she has something on her mind, she won't have a smile on her face.
When she received the investigation results yesterday, she was worried that Jian Yixue would be upset if she found out, so she specially asked Lin Yi to give it to Ye Mohan so that Ye Mohan could accompany Jian Yixue to read the document.
"Okay, go ahead."
Youluo and Youzhu exchanged a glance, then looked at Jian Yixue and said.
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue continued, "The first thing is to inform Youju to find a way to secretly bring Aunt Qiu out of the Jian family and settle her here with you. Please take care of Aunt Qiu for me."
"Okay. What if Aunt Qiu doesn't want to leave with Youju? Should we tell her the truth?"
Youluo recalled that the reason Jian Yixue had asked Youju to protect Aunt Qiu was because Aunt Qiu refused to leave.
