Huang Ziyao could only react after a while. Looking at Yue Lingsi, she asked, “What is this? You guys had people follow Yifeng?”
Sadness filled Xi Xinyi’s face and she looked at Huang Ziyao with teary eyes. “Someone sent it to us… Mother, Yifeng…”
Huang Ziyao’s expression darkened. She calmed down before looking at Xi Xinyi. “This matter is still unclear at the moment, so I’ll talk to Yifeng about it. As for you, the elder is really unhappy with you regarding the scandal. You know that our elder at home places a lot of importance on reputation. I gave him my word and convinced him to let Yifeng be with you, but look at what has happened now?”
Huang Ziyao seemed unsatisfied and she sighed in disappointment. “Xinyi, please note that I’ve always thought of you as my own daughter, and I’ve assumed that you’re already my daughter-in-law. I went against our elder and agreed to let Yifeng be with you. I gave up on your sister, Xi Xiaye. You’ve really let me down!”
“Mother! I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I’ll change, I promise! Yifeng is really angry with me as well. Please ask him to stop being angry with me., I don’t know what to do… We’ve gone through so much to be together. If he gives up on me now… I’ll suffer a fate even worse than death. Mother, please… I didn’t do it on purpose. I can’t live without Yifeng… My child and I can’t live without him…”
Xi Xinyi suddenly started crying again as she grabbed Huang Ziyao’s hand. When her warm tears splashed on the back of her hands, Huang Ziyao felt pity for her.
Huang Ziyao sighed after a while and patted the weeping girl’s hand. “Please stop crying. I’m not really sure what I can do now. If this child is really Yifeng’s, the elder wants both of you to get married as soon as possible, but you’ll have to quit the entertainment industry immediately due to your current circumstances. Let this ongoing issue fade on its own. The Han Corporation can’t take this anymore. I hope you can understand!”
“But what about Yueying? Grandmother’s been sick…”
“Let Yifeng handle Yueying for now now. Stay low for a period of time. We can arrange a secret wedding, or we can have the wedding after things have calmed down.”
“I hope that you can be considerate about Yifeng. I’m sure you understand how much pressure Yifeng has to take on because of you. You know how much the Han Corporation has tried to help you. Your utmost priority right now is to take care of yourself. You don’t have to go abroad. I have a villa in the west outskirts. I suppose you can move there in secret after leaving the hospital. It’s pretty hidden, so no one should be able to find out. Be at ease and rest there.”
Huang Ziyao then looked at Xi Xinyi questioningly. “What do you guys think?”
Let Yifeng handle Yueying for now?
Xi Xinyi was stunned for a moment. So, Huang Ziyao meant…
She raised her head and looked at Huang Ziyao as she mumbled, “Mother, you mean…”
Huang Ziyao sighed again, “What else can we do right now? The elder wants both of you to get married quickly. We’ll decide on what to do next later on. Most importantly, don’t get involved in the entertainment industry ever again…”
Xi Xinyi’s face turned pale when she heard Huang Ziyao. As she looked at Yue Lingsi, she was frowning in deep thought. After a while, she suddenly asked, “Mother, can you let me think about it?”
“As you wish. That’s what we’ve come up with. We’ll talk to Yifeng about it as well. I’ll head back for now. Later on, I’ll send someone over to look after you. Please think it through.”
Huang Ziyao sighed after her sentence. She then turned around and left the room.
“Mother, you’ve been busy this whole morning. Go back and rest. I’m really alright. I just want to spend some time alone,” Xi Xinyi turned over and told Yue Lingsi.
Yue Lingsi nodded. “Okay, I have something to discuss with your grandmother as well. Don’t worry, things will be fine. I’ll go talk to your grandfather…”
…
After Yue Lingsi left, Xi Xinyi quieted down and the look in her eyes changed several times!
Her gaze landed on the photos by the bedside. She bit her lip as she clenched her fists and her pale face started to seem frigid.
…
As Qingming approached, the sky seemed dark and several bouts of drizzle came. The whole City Z was shrouded in a hazy atmosphere.
Inside the Chairman’s office of Glory World Corporation.
“Master, Director Xi isn’t here. Someone said she applied for a half day’s leave this afternoon from Vice President Liu.”
Li Si wanted to retrieve a document from Xi Xiaye, but someone from the Planning Department had told him about this.
Mu Yuchen averted his gaze away from the laptop towards Li Si. “What’s the reason?”
Li Si shook his head. “They said she left swiftly after receiving a phone call…”
Mu Yuchen frowned. When he opened the drawer and took out his phone, he then realized it was switched off, so he quickly switched it back on.
Before he could even blink, the phone started ringing.
He picked up the call. “Hello?”
“Master, things are bad. Take a look at Weibo and the Economy Times. It’s full of articles about Missus!” Ah Mo sounded anxious.
Mu Yuchen’s expression turned serious when he heard Ah Mo and he quickly opened Weibo.
As expected, there were articles directed towards Xi Xiaye.
His face darkened and a storm was brewing in his eyes. He shoved a glass nearby away in rage.
“Damn it!”
The glass broke into pieces on the floor.
“Master…”
Even Ah Mo on the other end of the phone could feel his wrath, so Li Si did not dare to make a sound.
Mu Yuchen put his hand on the table as he took a deep breath. He calmed his anger after a while. “How’s your investigation going?”
“I’ve found Yang Jianfeng and I’m heading over now, but I noticed that Missus’ car is nearby. I’m not sure if I should go look for him right away.” Ah Mo sounded hesitant.
“Be on standby. Send the address to me.”
Mu Yuchen then hung up as he stood up coldly and walked out of the room.
“Master, where are you going?” Li Si asked as he grabbed their windbreaker before catching up with him.
