Chapter 342
Upon seeing Xia Ye Zhao, Yi Yujian did not mince words, “Cousin, all collaborative projects between Yi Corporation and Xia Corporation will be suspended as of today. We have no need for future collaborations!”
Xia Ye Zhao, mired in his own troubles, did not heed Yi Yujian’s words, “I saw the news about Ye Shiting. I will try again to persuade Yanyan.”
“You’d better be able to convince her, or both the Ye’s and Yi’s will hate her to the bone.”
Having said that, Yi Yujian slammed the car door shut. His anger was apparent to anyone with eyes.
Upon Wang Zili entering the car, likely due to panic and confusion, Yi Yujian drove away from the Xia’s residence. He didn’t get far before crashing into a nearby green belt, finally calling a towing company to remove the car.
While waiting for the towing service, she stood by the smashed car. Thinking about how her husband’s efforts toward the presidency were ruined not due to incompetence, but because of a failed marriage, the strong woman, burst into tears in her mother’s arms.
The sense of frustration, the anxiety, the grievance of missing out on becoming the First Lady; even Han Chengbei, driving home, couldn’t help but stop his car, pressing the horn and calling out, “Sister Yi, the car is damaged, are you ok? Shall I take you home?”
As if not wanting to be seen as a laughingstock, Yi Yujian quickly suppressed her emotions, striving to maintain her image. She shook her head, “No need.”
“Hop in, the car broke down in front of my house. If I turn a blind eye, I won’t be able to face Grandpa Yi in the future.”
Eventually, Yi Yujian and Wang Zili got into Han Chengbei’s car.
Ye Xingguang returned to the hospital. On his Weibo, where he usually talks about his regrets, he was spammed by Han Chengbei.
Beibei x5: [Grandpa! Why can’t I reach you by phone?]
Beibei x5: [Do you know that Xia Yanyan is trying to steal your man?]
Beibei x5: [I just took your sister-in-law home. She went to the Xia’s to beg Xia Yanyan to let go. Unfortunately, Xia Yanyan is determined. Your sister-in-law is now as restless as ants on a hot pan, couldn’t even drive properly, and crashed into the green belt outside my estate.]
Beibei x5: [Reply ASAP. If Ye Junqing doesn’t want you, tell me immediately. I am willing to marry you! Marry you! Marry you!]
Ye Xingguang had no intention of responding to Han Chengbei. After switching phones, she hadn’t logged into her usual account but instead used her other one. Seeing Han Chengbei mention her sister-in-law, she couldn’t ignore it.
RegretDealer: [What happened to my sister-in-law?]
Beibei x6: [Finally replied. I thought you were dead! Well, what can happen? The dream of becoming the First Lady vanished in an instant. Even the most unflappable woman can’t keep it together. Tell me where you are, grandpa?]
Ye Xingguang didn’t want to reveal her location and ignored Han Chengbei. Thinking about how her innocent sister-in-law got dragged into this, she felt incredibly frustrated.noveldrama
She was in the hospital room, sitting by her father’s bedside as he received IV fluids, keeping an eye on her phone to stay updated.
So far, no one knows Ye Shiting lost his presidential candidacy because Ye Junqing refused to marry Xia Yanyan. The public believes it was due to evidence implicating Ye Shiting as the mastermind behind the gas station explosion, therefore, online criticism of Ye Shiting is everywhere.
Surely, other presidential candidates were fanning these flames.
However, Ye Shiting could not find the evidence to clear his name, nor did he publicise the real reason he was disqualified…
Then, to her surprise, she came across a tweet from a major gossiper, unrelated to Ye Shiting but concerning her.
