Chapter 4 The Reason for the Disappearance
Following Xu Qingyan, they arrived at a teahouse. As soon as they entered, Xu Qingyan said impatiently, "Give me the most secluded private room, quick!"
Ye Ran glanced at Xu Qingyan with disdain and said unhurriedly, "What's the rush? Isn't it fine to be in the lobby? The air is fresh and it's lively!"
Xu Qingyan dared not speak out against her anger, so he could only glare at her secretly and chuckle awkwardly, "We haven't seen each other for so long, let's find a good place to have a good chat."
Ye Ran sneered upon hearing this, and said in a cold voice, "Is that so? Then we should have a good chat!"
Upon entering the private room, Xu Qingyan seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief. He loosened his tie, looking somewhat awkward, and asked, "Ranran, what are you doing in Beijing?"
What he really wanted to ask was, how are you still alive? For some unspeakable reasons, Xu Qingyan immediately cut off contact with Ye Ran after entering university.
He became even more cautious after he got close to his current father-in-law and married his current wife, Yang Yuwei.
For many years, he has kept his contact with his family very secret, just in case Ye Ran came looking for him.
So the Xu family began to find ways to torment Ye Ran, harboring some unspeakable ulterior motives, thinking that Ye Ran should just serve the Xu family for the rest of her life...
No one expected Ye Ran to suddenly become pregnant. The Xu family was also afraid that she would give birth to the child and wanted to go to Xu Qingyan, which would delay his important business.
Naturally, he began to bully Ye Ran even more, forcing her to go out to work during the day while pregnant, and then clean the house and wash the whole family's clothes when she got home at night.
They dared not let her eat or drink well, hoping she would miscarry quickly. Who knew that Ye Ran's child was so resilient that even such torment could not get rid of the child.
Unexpectedly, at this very moment, the Ye couple ran into trouble. The Xu family was secretly delighted, thinking that now no one would support Ye Ran anymore, and they could do whatever they wanted.
Even better, Ye Ran was so grief-stricken by the news of her parents' accident that she gave birth prematurely to a baby girl with congenital defects.
The Xu family was overjoyed and couldn't wait to spread the word that the child was an illegitimate child and not theirs.
Ye Ran is a slut who cheats on her husband and doesn't deserve to be a daughter-in-law of the Xu family. Then, they rightfully kicked the mother and daughter out.
With nowhere else to turn, Ye Ran and her daughter had no choice but to sell their house and leave their hometown.
The Xu family finally felt a huge weight lifted from their hearts, but secretly thought, "A woman who has just given birth and is already weakened, with such a sickly child to take care of, might just die out there one day and no one will even collect her body..."
So he quickly relayed the message to Xu Qingyan in Beijing, which put Xu Qingyan at ease.
Especially since there has been no news of Ye Ran and her daughter over the years, the Xu family and Xu Qingyan have long forgotten about her existence.
This family shamelessly enjoys their lives while trampling on the blood and tears of the Ye family, continuing to be arrogant and haughty.
After so many years of torment, Ye Ran is completely unrecognizable and no longer resembles her former self. Even if old acquaintances from back then were to see her again, they might not recognize her.
That's why Xu Qingyan didn't immediately think of Ye Ran today.
