Fang Xi raised her head and sniffled. She chuckled self-deprecatingly and uttered, “My mother made it very clear; she told me everyone who comes to this world will get what comeuppance they deserve. No matter what I encounter, it’s all my own karma. She can’t help me even if she wants to.”

“She said our mother-and-daughter relationship is fated to be shallow, and that she worked hard on her own to get to where she is today. It would be a different story if I was willing to marry the person she wanted me to, allowing her to benefit from our ‘bond.’ That I wanted to get some pity and comfort and whatnot from her when I’m of no help to her at all was just… too ridiculous.”

Yun Nan was shocked. Thinking back to that period, Fang Xi was very depressed when she came back from abroad. ‘Looks like it was because of her mother’s heartlessness. At the time, I only thought that it was because she got hurt too deeply by Xi Cheng.’

Fang Xi poked the small cake before her with a small fork and said detachedly, “After the wedding, I asked Ye Kun to get someone to investigate the Zhu family. It seems that their family is facing a financial crisis. So, it’s not difficult to know why my mother came to look for me.”

“She wants you to help her?” Yun Nan asked incredulously, a little blown away by this Ms. Xi Yue’s low moral line.

“Hmph!” Fang Xi snorted coldly. “She’s not interested in me. She’s interested in the Ye family behind me.”

Yun Nan didn’t say anything. ‘Ms. Xi has quite the… unique perspective,’ she thought.

“Does Ye Kun know?” she softly inquired, thinking, ‘Ye Kun and Fang Xi had been through too many twists and tribulations along the way. Their new dawn finally came after much difficulty, I can’t let them be harassed by any more irrelevant things.’

Fang Xi put down her fork and smiled resignedly. “I told Ye Kun that very night, as well as Ye Tang and my mother-in-law. To me, there’s nothing to hide about this. Besides, my mother’s moral line is different from normal people. Who knows what she’ll do. I can’t let the Ye family be dragged down by the Zhu family because of me. Just like how my mother made me bear my own comeuppance, I can’t interfere with my mother’s karma, either. She has to follow her own teaching and do as she taught me.”

Yun Nan was slightly relieved to hear that. “If she asks for financial help, just give it to her. You can use the money in our public account at will. If it’s not enough, I’m about to sell my paintings. I’ll leave the earnings from that with you.”

Fang Xi patted Yun Nan’s hand gratefully. There was no need for thanks between them. Something suddenly occurred to Yun Nan and she asked, “Does Mr. Mo know? I think she’s quite afraid of him.”

Fang Xi shook her head. “My mother and Mr. Mo were childhood sweethearts. Back then, the Mo family encountered a crisis. My mother was worried the Mo family wouldn’t be able to make it through, so she forced my grandparents to break off their engagement. I heard that the Mo family’s old master was so infuriated that he vomited blood and immediately agreed to cancel the engagement then and there.”

“By the time the Mo family recovered, my mother was already married and pregnant with me. But who knew that the rich heir she’d carefully selected and married was a man who appeared impressive but was actually useless. Aside from his looks, the only thing my father was good at was squandering away fortune, so the two of them divorced after giving birth to me.”

“My mother had a new target, and I was a burden, so she threw me to Grandpa and Grandma. Before she left, she even went to Mr. Mo’s place to put on an impressive show, making Mr. Mo believe that she was forced to break things off back then due to circumstances and had no choice and that she was the most pitiful and innocent person in the world. Mr. Mo has been caring for me since I was young.”

Yun Nan opened her mouth, but then closed it and forcefully swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue. Fang Xi scoffed, “My mother is the best at manipulating men’s hearts. She was once Mr. Mo’s unforgettable first love, and even his care for me first started because I was her daughter.”

“However, after she’d cheated money and benefits from him a few times, plus the fact that she’d abandoned me, finally made Mr. Mo see her true colors, making him bitterly disappointed in her. My mother’s good fortune is all ruined by herself.”

Yun Nan didn’t expect a person like Mr. Mo would be vulnerable to a woman’s wiles. ‘It just goes to show how cunning and powerful this Ms. Xi’s means are,’ she thought.

Fang Xi continued, “I think my mother’s target this time is me; she doesn’t dare to try anything with Mr. Mo. She thinks I’m an easier target; after all, the Ye family is a famous wealthy aristocratic family. She always knew well the logic that those who have nothing fear nothing, and those who have everything to lose are always disadvantaged against those who have nothing. Now I’m the one with everything to lose in her eyes. That’s why she threatened me, saying that if I don’t reply to her, she’ll come to Yun Innovations to cause trouble.” Fang Xi analyzed calmly.

“In that case, I hope she does come to Yun Innovations to cause trouble. At least we won’t trouble others. Don’t return her calls. Let her come to Yun Innovations!” Yun Nan said.

Fang Xi laughed. ‘Yun Nan, best friend to the end,’ she thought, heart warmed.

“We’ll have to first convince her that I’m afraid of her coming to Yun Innovations to cause trouble. She won’t come otherwise,” Fang Xi stated, knowing her mother’s methods like the back of her hand.

As she spoke, she picked up her phone and called her mother back.

“Oh, if it isn’t my young lady herself! You finally called me back! Did you finally remember that you still have a mother? I’m your biological mother, you know. And you had your assistant pick up my calls to you?! How arrogant of you, Young Madam Ye!”
