Chapter 269: Finally Met】

After Hong Xin walked away, she couldn't help wanting to cry. She didn't want to be seen by the bodyguards and reported to her parents, making them worry.

After wiping her eyes, Hong Xin pretended to be nothing and said to the two bodyguards: "You go back first."

One of the bodyguards hesitated and said: "But the old lady asked us to protect you."

"Did Qin Yong follow?" Hong Xin asked.

The other bodyguard looked around vigilantly. This was a deserted street. He didn't see any suspicious people, so he shook his head and said: "No."

Hong Xin said: "Since there is no danger, you go back first. I want to walk alone."

"...Yes."

The two bodyguards did not dare to disobey their employer's orders, but before leaving, they did not forget to search the area to make sure Qin Yong was not hiding around.

Hong Xin didn't care about the bodyguards' actions and walked away with empty steps.

She didn't know where she was going, she just wanted to keep walking.

...

"... Damn it!"

When the bodyguards were alert to the surroundings, Ye Yong, who had followed, had to hide in the alley. He didn't expect that the two bodyguards would search the surroundings before leaving. Ye Yong

had to retreat again and again, hiding again and again, so that he was not discovered by the bodyguards.

When he returned to the place where Hong Xin and the bodyguards separated, Hong Xin was gone.

Ye Yong was very annoyed. He looked around and saw an old man carrying a candied haws. He immediately went up to him, took out money to buy a candied haws, and said: "Old man, did you see a woman with her face covered? She is my wife, we had a quarrel, and I am looking for her."

As he said, Ye Yong shook the candied haws in his hand, meaning to use it to coax his wife.

The old man saw Ye Yong coming out to look for his wife in thin clothes in the cold weather, and he probably must be very anxious. He thought carefully, pointed in a direction and said, "Just now, a woman wearing a military green coat and a scarf wrapped around her face went there. She should be your wife. Go find her quickly. She looks dazed. Don't let anything happen to her."

"Okay, thank you."

Ye Yong immediately ran over there.

...

"Mom, Ah Feng and I are going to grandma's house first."

Ye Qingyue shouted into the house, "Are you not done yet? Do you want us to wait for you?"

She and Ye Feng were going to Jiang's house to discuss with grandpa and the others about which school to transfer to.

Ye Xianghong was supposed to go with them, but when she was cleaning the yard before leaving, her clothes were scratched by a dead branch, so she said she would stay home to fix it, and let Ye Qingyue and Ye Feng go first.

"No, the cut is a bit big, I need to sew it carefully, otherwise it will be easy to see."

Ye Xianghong cherished her new clothes very much, because Li Qi and Old Master Jiang picked them for her.

Ye Xianghong felt more distressed than anyone else about such a big cut, and wanted to fix it until it was not visible.

"You go first, don't keep your grandparents waiting for too long." Ye Xianghong shouted to the outside.

"Okay."

Ye Qingyue took Ye Feng out.

Ye Xianghong stayed at home to fix the clothes, and when she put them on, she called Ye Mei and asked her if she could see the problem.

"I think it's fine."

Ye Mei didn't think it was ugly. "Mom, are you going out now?"

Ye Xianghong nodded and asked, "Aren't you going with me?"

"I have something to do."

Ye Mei planned to find someone to send a message to Sheng Zhiwu and ask him out for a meeting.

The fact that she is a woman, the longer she puts off, the harder it will be to bring it up.

Recently, Ye Mei's dreams were about Sheng Zhiwu finding out that she is a woman, being angry that she lied to him, and wanting to break up with her. She was woken up by the dream every time.

She felt that she couldn't sleep well if it continued like this, so she might as well cut the Gordian knot and ask him out in the next two days to confess the truth.

"Then be careful when you are out there." Ye Xianghong warned.

Ye Mei said, "Mom, do you still need to worry about me?"

She is the best fighter in the family.

"How can a mother not worry about her child?" Ye Xianghong answered naturally.

Ye Mei was startled, then smiled: "That's right."

Thinking of the time in Yunsheng County when Ye Xianghong slapped Wu's mother in the face for her, Ye Mei's knot in her heart was untied.

The mother and mother talked, packed up their things, and went out together.

But as soon as they opened the door, they saw a woman wearing a military green coat and a gauze scarf on her face standing at the door.

"Hong Xin?"

Ye Mei recognized her at a glance and frowned, "What are you doing here?"

Now that Hong Xin already knew that Qin Yong was Ye Yong, how could she dare to come?

Ye Mei was worried that she wanted to do something to her mother, so she moved aside and blocked Ye Xianghong behind her.

Seeing Ye Mei like this, how could Hong Xin not understand the situation?

"You...already knew?"

As early as yesterday, Hong Xin had thought about many things, including Ye Qingyue "accidentally" taking her to Ye Yong's funeral hall and telling her Ye Yong's true face.

Perhaps, the young-looking girl had already known that the "A Yong" she was talking about was her biological father.

The reason why she didn't tell her clearly was to give her the last bit of face.

Thinking of this, Hong Xin became more and more ashamed.

"I..."

Hong Xin opened her mouth and smiled bitterly: "I don't know why I came here."

She walked and walked, and when she reacted, she had already arrived at the door of the Ye family.

As soon as she stopped, Ye Mei brought Ye Xianghong out. She didn't even have a chance to escape, and she bumped into the two of them.

"You go back."

Ye Mei didn't want Hong Xin to affect her mother's mood here.

"Can I say a few words to you?"

Hong Xin did not leave, but looked at Ye Xianghong.

Some things should be said sooner or later, rather than waiting until you lose the courage to speak, it is better to say it now.

Seeing that Hong Xin not only refused to leave but also wanted to talk to her mother, Ye Mei felt that this woman had bad intentions. She was about to speak when she was stopped.

"Xiao Mei, go and do your thing first."

Ye Xianghong said, "I'll talk to her."

"Mom..."

Ye Mei disagreed.

But Ye Xianghong insisted and pushed Ye Mei away.

Ye Mei looked back every few steps and walked out of the alley. After disappearing from Ye Xianghong's sight, she immediately accelerated her pace, went around to another road, and observed the movement at the door from another place.

She would not leave obediently and let her mother be alone with Hong Xin.

Ye Mei held the stone in her hand. At this distance, if Hong Xin dared to do anything to her mother, she would be shot in the head!

"...Thank you."

Hong Xin didn't expect that Ye Xianghong knew the truth and was willing to give her a chance to talk.

Ye Xianghong said, "What do you want to say?"

"I have broken up with Qin Yong."

Hong Xin said with difficulty, "In the future... I will not be with him."

Seeing that Ye Xianghong did not respond, she thought that Ye Xianghong did not believe her, and quickly added: "I was deceived by him before. I thought you had an affair and betrayed him first, so he changed his name and started over under the pretext of flood relief..."

At this point, Hong Xin smiled bitterly, "Forget it, saying so much can't change the fact that I knew that Qin Yong... No, it should be Ye Yong. I knew that Ye Yong had a family, but I still stayed with him..."

"You are wrong."

Ye Xianghong interrupted her and corrected her, "Ye Yong is my husband, he is dead, Qin Yong is not him."

"Don't you know yet?"

Hong Xin was stunned, "Qin Yong is Ye Yong, he just faked his death and changed his identity..."

"No."

Ye Xianghong shook her head, "Qin Yong is not Ye Yong."

Hong Xin wanted to explain further, but she suddenly remembered that Ye Xianghong had a mental illness like her, but their situations were different.

As patients, Hong Xin knew that their thinking was different from that of ordinary people at certain times, and it was difficult for her to detect this difference. Just like

she knew that Ye Yong had a family but still wanted to be with him, thinking that she and Ye Yong were true love...

until she was hit again and again, and the dream she had woven for herself was shattered, she had no way to retreat, and had to admit that she was wrong.

Perhaps, Ye Xianghong was also in a similar situation, and she was unwilling to admit that the scum who abandoned his wife and daughter was her husband Ye Yong.

"...Okay, Qin Yong is not Ye Yong."

Hong Xin was worried that if she said too much, it would irritate Ye Xianghong.

She had done too many wrong things to Ye Xianghong, and she didn't want to let this innocent woman get hurt again.

Otherwise, how could she face people again?

"But I still want to say something to you."

Hong Xin smiled bitterly and said, "I'm sorry."

Ye Xianghong looked at her for a while, and suddenly said, "You are very happy."

After that, Ye Xianghong left.

Leaving Hong Xin confused.

In the distance, Ye Mei saw the two people separate, and Hong Xin stood there in a daze, then she breathed a sigh of relief, planning to take a detour to find her mother, accompany her mother to her grandmother's house, and then find someone to give Sheng Zhiwu a message.

When Ye Mei turned around, she didn't see that there was an extra figure not far behind her mother.
