Chapter 1088
Xia Yanyan looked at Ye Xingguang. They had no past grudge or recent enmity, yet this little White Lotus knew how to embarrass her in public!
Xia Yanyan took a deep breath, telling herself that a momentary lapse could ruin a great plan. Once she got the regret medicine, all her current humiliation would be erased.
"I’m sorry, Miss Ye."
Xia Yanyan didn’t continue further, only bowed respectfully. Seeing that Ye Xingguang wasn’t willing to let it go, she added, "I really didn’t mean to bring you to harm. I just... The spokesperson for Xia’s Group has always been me. Now that you’ve suddenly been added, I felt a bit unbalanced, so I wanted to stop you from endorsing. I didn’t know cholera could be fatal, I just thought of giving you diarrhea so that the endorsement would be delayed, and I could fight for it. It was indeed an error in judgment on my part, but I absolutely only intended for you to have diarrhea. Nowadays, technology is so advanced, I didn’t think cholera would be deadly..."
Ye Xingguang frowned, "You’re not a three-year-old child. How could you not know that cholera could lead to a large-scale epidemic? No deaths occurred this time because it was detected early and managed well. Otherwise, if it had spread, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Miss Xia, think it through before you act in the future. If you want the endorsement, we can compete fairly. Don’t use underhanded tactics anymore, or you’ll not only lose face for yourself but also for the Xia’s Family, the Perry’s, and even Country A."
"Yes, I understand. I will definitely reflect on my actions sincerely and thoroughly..."
Facing Xia Yanyan, who played the role of enduring humiliation for a greater cause, Ye Xingguang found it difficult to pursue the issue further and was too lazy to watch her act in public, so she let it go.
The Perry’s mother smiled and came over, taking Ye Xingguang’s hand, "You’ve been wronged, child. I heard you were quarantined at home for two days. This is a small token of my regard, hoping it can comfort your fright."
She instructed someone to bring the gift, which Ye Xingguang accepted. noveldrama
Subsequently, someone pushed a cake into the banquet hall. The birthday celebration officially began, and everyone started to celebrate the Perry’s mother’s birthday.
She handed the first slice of cake she cut to Ye Xingguang, a gesture from the Perry’s that gave Ye Xingguang enough face, meaning the Ye’s Family would no longer pursue this matter.
With the dust settled, Xia Yanyan breathed a sigh of relief. Next, she hoped Harry Perry could help her find "the regret medicine."
...
As the banquet went on for about half, Lawson Perry approached Ye Xingguang with a glass of red wine, "Miss Ye."
"Mr. Perry."
Lawson Perry seemed to have the ability to see through people’s hearts, his keen gaze resting on Ye Xingguang, smiling without saying anything further.
For a moment, Ye Xingguang didn’t know why he called her.
She searched for the figure of Ye Junqing in the banquet hall, seeing him standing among a group of men, chatting and laughing, standing out from the crowd, yet not noticing what was happening on her side. She couldn’t help but snort internally.
Lawson Perry probably saw her tension and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, no need to be nervous."
Ye Xingguang maintained a smile full of the grace and elegance of a wealthy young lady, "Vice President Perry, I’m not sure what you’re talking about."
"As long as you know in your heart."
Lawson Perry toasted her, "Previously, my eyes lacked clarity. If I have offended, I hope Miss Xia can forgive."
In three sentences, he gave her three titles.
When Ye Xingguang initially bet on Ye Junqing, Lawson Perry had used her to make quite a fuss to beat his competitor. This mention of forgiveness should be referring to that, right?
