Chapter 909 - 952: Diverting Attention
Ling Yueyue wasn’t feeling guilty at all, and directly said with her head held high, "Of course, I don’t truly love you! My true love is Mr. Huo from my home!"
"...!" Ye Anxin was originally thinking of arguing with her! Now she realized it’s impossible to outtalk Ling Yueyue! That mouth of hers is truly invincible.
Ling Yueyue raised her brows triumphantly, then suddenly remembered something, hastily grabbing Ye Anxin’s arm, she asked angrily, "Anxin, tell me, where’s Ruan Zhitong? What did you guys do to her? A vicious woman like her deserves to be slashed into pieces, making her death painful!"
At the mention of Ruan Zhitong, Ye Anxin couldn’t help but frown, "Her? She’s dead!"
Ling Yueyue exclaimed incredulously, "Dead, really? How did she die? Dying is too easy for her! She should be tormented endlessly, making life worse than death!"
Ye Anxin said a bit dazedly, "She committed suicide! Burnt alive!"
Ling Yueyue widened her eyes sharply, looking at Ye Anxin in disbelief, "Suicide? Would a woman like her commit suicide? If she had a bit of conscience, she wouldn’t do such things! If she’s lost her conscience, why would she suddenly repent and choose to kill herself? According to psychology, a woman like her, even if she wanted to die, would surely drag you along for the ride!"
Ye Anxin replied thoughtfully, "She intended to perish with me! But... she saved me!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Yueyue was bewildered, "What are you even saying! I don’t understand a word!"
"Sigh! Not just you, even I still don’t really understand what happened!" Ye Anxin sighed, not sure how to continue!
Uncle told her Ruan Zhitong had schizophrenia, but was unwilling to say much else!
She said she’d find Yan Qinghan to get clarity, but she’s been continuously busy till now, and hasn’t gone to him yet! So, regarding Ruan Zhitong’s matters, she genuinely knows nothing at all!
She only knows that Uncle ordered Ruan Zhitong’s cremation, then had her ashes sent to the United States! As for the rest, she’s completely in the dark!
"You...!" As Ling Yueyue was about to ask more questions, Ye Anxin hurriedly changed the topic, "Alright, didn’t you come today to check on me, see how I’m doing? I’m doing pretty well now! Let’s take little Chu Yi to sit in the garden pavilion outside! Stay for lunch with me later! Uncle’s gone to the company, and Xiao Bai’s at school, leaving me alone at home!"
"Oh! I was so focused on worrying about you, I forgot to check on my goddaughter!" With Ye Anxin’s reminder, Ling Yueyue finally remembered little Chu Yi she’d been holding earlier, quickly standing up and taking little Chu Yi from the nanny.
"Let’s go, to the garden! Stuck inside, little Chu Yi must be bored stiff!" Ling Yueyue smiled, amusing little Chu Yi in her arms while heading to the garden! The topic of Ruan Zhitong’s matter had been completely forgotten.
Seeing Ling Yueyue’s attention successfully diverted, Ye Anxin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, held her mother’s hand, and followed Ling Yueyue to the garden.
......
After wrapping up her tasks, Ye Anxin finally had time to go to Yan Country Group to meet Yan Qinghan.
At Yan Country Group, Ye Anxin directly went to the reception, politely saying, "Excuse me, my surname is Ye, I’m a friend of your president, I’d like to meet your president!"
"Oh, it’s Miss Ye. Our president specifically instructed that if Miss Ye comes to see him, there’s no need to report, she can go straight up!" The receptionist made a welcoming gesture. Ye Anxin nodded and followed the receptionist to the elevator!
The receptionist directly led Ye Anxin to the president’s exclusive elevator and pressed the elevator button for her, "Miss Ye, the president instructed that you can take the exclusive elevator straight up! His office is on the top floor! You can see it right after exiting the elevator!"
"Alright, thank you!" Ye Anxin smiled and nodded, entered, and waved goodbye to the receptionist!
As it was the president’s exclusive elevator, it didn’t stop on any other floors and took Ye Anxin directly to the top floor.
As the elevator doors slowly opened before Ye Anxin, the entire top floor was spacious, similar in layout to Mu Group, with only one office — the president’s office. Next to it was the assistant’s office, and a workstation set up outside the president’s door, where a handsome young male secretary sat, engrossed in work.
Ye Anxin confidently walked over, smiling, "Sorry, my surname is Ye, I’m a friend of your president, I came especially to see him today!"
The male secretary lifted his head, glanced at Ye Anxin, stood up, and smiled politely, "Please wait a moment, I’ll go in and ask!" He nodded to Ye Anxin and entered Yan Qinghan’s office. Shortly after, he returned, opened Yan Qinghan’s office door, and gestured welcomingly, "Miss Ye, the president invites you in!"
"Alright, thank you!" Ye Anxin nodded and stepped inside the president’s office! Once she entered, the male secretary quickly said, "Miss Ye, please sit down, I’ll make you some tea!"
"Thank you!" After Ye Anxin expressed her gratitude, the male secretary shut the office door.
When Ye Anxin turned and walked up to Yan Qinghan’s desk, Yan Qinghan was reclining on his chair, legs crossed and resting on his desk, arms crossed, grinning while squinting at her. He cheerfully said, "Little sister-in-law gracing us today really makes this humble abode shine! Please have a seat, if there’s anything we’ve overlooked, I hope little sister-in-law won’t mind!"
Hearing Yan Qinghan’s exaggerated words, Ye Anxin couldn’t help but roll her eyes, sitting down on the chair opposite his desk, and said irritably, "No need for such exaggerations, I came to ask you some questions today!"
Yan Qinghan chuckled, straightforwardly, "Go ahead! What’s the matter?"
Ye Anxin was silent for a moment, pondering briefly, and finally bit her lip to ask, "Mr. Yan, well... I came today to ask about Ruan Zhitong!"
Yan Qinghan, upon hearing this, raised his brows, somewhat surprised, "Ruan Zhitong? Out of nowhere, why are you suddenly asking about her? Didn’t she vanish four years ago?"
"I...!" Ye Anxin was just about to speak when the sound of knocking echoed through the office.
"Come in!" With Yan Qinghan’s words dropping to the air, the office door was pushed open, and the male secretary walked in with a steaming cup of milk tea, placed it on the table in front of Ye Anxin, then silently lowered his head and left.
