Chapter 2542: Was She Worthy of Him?

Yu Guan looked at the change in Ning Yuan’s expression and slowly sipped the tea in the porcelain teacup.

Ning Yuan’s slender fingers held the document tightly and she looked at Yu Guan with red eyes.

“Miss Yu, who asked you to investigate my father?” An unprecedented coldness appeared on Ning Yuan’s beautiful face and her gaze was like a sharp sword that wanted to pierce through Yu Guan. “He’s not such a person. Don’t slander him!”

Yu Guan put down the teacup in her hand and lifted her lips slightly. “Miss Ning, I investigated you because of my duty. His Highness is a prince. If there is a woman with ulterior motives or poor family background beside him, it will affect his reputation and image!”

Yu Guan looked at the document in Ning Yuan’s hand. “Besides, your father has a mental illness. I’ve asked an expert and he said that your father’s illness is inherited. I heard that your grandfather once acted up when he was around 30 years old and it was inherited from his eldest son and eldest daughter. Look, your father inherited it, but your uncle didn’t. You might inherit it and when you become a mental patient, you will become the taint of the Second Prince!”

Looking at Ning Yuan, whose face was getting paler, she smiled calmly, as if she was sure that Ning Yuan and Ye Yu would not last long. “Besides, once what your father did is exposed, not only will your future be affected, but also the Second Prince!”

“You’re still young and can find a man with a background similar to yours. But the Second Prince is a star in the sky and is destined to be out of your league. Why do you have to make things difficult for yourself? One day, you will be hurt and agitated and your condition will act up in advance. Isn’t it a loss for you?”

Ning Yuan’s heart was in turmoil.

Yu Guan had not known about this before. She had never thought that such a thing would happen to her family.

All kinds of emotions surged in her chest and she could not think rationally.

She needed confirmation!

Yu Guan liked Ye Yu. She might have fabricated these things on purpose to ruin things!

Ning Yuan stood up from the chair. She was not as calm as when she came. Her face was pale.

She looked at Yu Guan with red eyes. “I will investigate this matter properly. Miss Yu, if you made up these things and framed my father, I will not let you off!”

Ning Yuan left the Yu family.

She returned to the broadcasting company in a daze and asked for leave from Xie Ancheng.

She borrowed a car from Gu Fei and drove back to the town.

Before she was brought to Ning Shiyu’s house, she lived with her grandmother in Wutong Town.

It would take about two hours to drive from the capital to Wutong Town.

Ning Yuan got on the highway and sped all the way.

The car stopped at the door of a flat house. There were flowers and plants planted in the yard and many of them were planted by Ning Yuan.

The old lady, who was chatting with someone in the house, probably heard the sound of the car and came out.

Seeing that Ning Yuan had returned, the Old Madam was overjoyed.

“Yuan’er, why did you suddenly come back?”

Ning Yuan held her grandmother’s old hand and felt a lump in her throat. “Grandma, I have something to ask you.”

The neighbor came out of the house and when she saw Ning Yuan, she smiled and said a few words to her.

After Ning Yuan greeted the neighbor, she pulled her grandmother into the house.

“Child, what’s wrong?” Seeing Ning Yuan’s slightly red eyes, Grandma asked worriedly.

Ning Yuan sat beside her grandmother and asked with a trembling voice, “Is my father crazy? Did Mom run away with someone else because he abused her?”

Grandma did not expect Ning Yuan to suddenly ask this. She lowered her head and said nothing for a while.

“Grandma…”

Grandma patted the back of Ning Yuan’s hand lightly and sighed softly. “Child, don’t mention the past.”

Although Grandma had raised Ning Yuan, Grandma had protected her very well. She had never mentioned anything that troubled her in the past.

She had never said anything about her father.

“The night Dad passed away, did his condition act up and he almost did it to a woman in the park… When the woman broke free and ran out, he was hit by a car?”

Grandma pursed her lips, a trace of sadness in her eyes. “Actually, your father was a very good person when he was normal. He just couldn’t control his emotions. I don’t know what happened that night…”

Ning Yuan’s heart sank.

It seemed like the information Yu Guan had found was real!

In Ning Yuan’s heart, her father had always been a very noble person.

She never thought that the cause of her father’s death was to chase after the woman he had almost humiliated…

Ning Yuan felt like she had been struck by lightning!

The tears that she had been holding back fell uncontrollably.

Grandma pulled Ning Yuan into her arms and patted her shoulder lightly. “Yuan’er, don’t hate your father. His condition is not something he can control. He’s a good person.”

Ning Yuan’s tears could not stop.

Her heart sank like it had fallen into an abyss.

She knew that her father was not a bad person by nature. After falling ill, he had no choice in many things!

Then, when she was thirty years old, would she become a person who could not control her emotions and mind like her father?

Just as Yu Guan had said, how could she be worthy of Ye Yu?

“Yuan’er, I know what you’re thinking, but don’t look down on yourself until that day comes.”

Grandma pulled Ning Yuan into her arms and wiped away the tears on her face. “Your mother was also the reason why your mother divorced your father. She was too ambitious and refused to live a stable life.”

“Although I’m your grandmother, I’m on your father’s side. Your mother’s departure must have given him a shock and made his illness act up early. So, I hope you can find someone on par with you and not hurt you and live a peaceful life!”

Ning Yuan’s tear-stained eyelashes lowered slightly. She leaned against her grandmother’s arms, her heart in a mess.

After finding out the truth, Ning Yuan did not drive back to the capital.

He stayed to accompany Grandma to the supermarket and cooked with her. The two of them had dinner in the yard.

….

In the office.

After Ye Yu finished his work for the day, he returned to his office and glanced at his phone.

The woman who usually sent him messages almost every day had not contacted him since she left this morning.

Ye Yu leaned back against the chair, took a cigarette from the cigarette box and put it between his lips.

His phone vibrated and he looked at it with narrowed eyes.

When he saw the caller ID, he furrowed his eyebrows slightly.

“What’s the matter?”

Feng Chen, who had called, froze for a few seconds when he heard the man’s deep and cold voice. “F*ck, I called you to come out for a gathering. Why do I feel like you treat me as an enemy?”

“Don’t call me if there’s nothing. I’m busy.”
