Huahua then got out of the card and apologized to An Xiaoning in a polite tone with her hands put together, “Ms. An, please be magnanimous and forgive us. Don’t stoop to our level. We’re very, very sorry.”

An Xiaoning sneered, “I’m a moral and upright person. I don’t need to ride on a man’s coattails to rise to power and get to where I am today. Ms. Song has had a hard time achieving the success she has today. Don’t let that success and your efforts go down the drain because of something you said without thinking. That’ll be a much greater loss. I truly saw Ms. Song’s true colors when I read her fortune previously. Does she really think she can compel me to read her fortune by badmouthing me after I rejected her? Don’t cross the line since I’ve decided not to argue with you. I’m afraid Ms. Song won’t be able to bear the consequences if she goes overboard and provoke me!”

Her volume was rather loud, and everyone inside the car could hear her clearly.

It was clear what An Xiaoning meant —”I can’t be bothered to argue with you, so don’t incur my wrath. Otherwise, you shall bear the dire consequences!”

An Xiaoning was just that shrewd and suave.

Huahua finally heaved a huge sigh of relief after An Xiaoning left. She got back inside the car and gave herself a tight slap. “It’s all my fault for being so talkative! Song Yan, you were too rash just now. You won’t stand to gain anything from incurring her wrath. Do you think we can afford to provoke someone so powerful like her? It’s fine if you grouse and curse her behind her back to vent your frustration, but we’ll be doomed if she hears us.”

Song Yan began bawling loudly.

Overwhelmed with fear and anxiety, the chauffeur dared not utter a single word and began driving away.

An Xiaoning watched with a sullen expression on her face as the nanny van drove away.

She then began walking along the snowy roads with a heat pack and umbrella in hand.

She did not feel like driving and merely wanted to come out to enjoy the cool air.

She felt much more clear-headed after getting some fresh air.

Pedestrians were scarce on the road, and the snow was falling from the sky, forming a thick layer on the ground. Creaking sounds could be heard when she stepped on the snow.

She continued treading along her path and decided to set her footprints all over the ground for plain, mindless fun.

——

The office was dead silent, apart from the sounds of fingers clicking on the keyboard.

The heater was switched on in the room. However, it could not warm the heart of the person furiously typing away.

The temperature outside was jarring, as juxtaposed against that of the room.

“Mr. Ye, bad news!”

Ye Xiaotian’s heart sank. “Look how frantic and jittery you are, what’s the matter?” he questioned.

“The inspectors from the Tax and Revenue Bureau are here.”

A frown creased Ye Xiaotian’s forehead and he asked, “What are they here for?”

“They said that they had received an anonymous report and they’re here to check on the Ye Corporation headquarters.”

Ye Xiaotian sprung up from his seat and said, “I’ll go take a look.”

“By the way, Mr. Ye, here’s another letter for you.”

Ye Xiaotian took the envelope from the secretary’s hands and opened it to find that there was a note inside.

It read: “I’ll return to you double of what you’ve done wrong to me.”

He squinted and crushed the note in his hands before striding out of his office.

He slammed the door shut after him.

Half an hour later, Ye Xiaotian returned to his office, raging with fury as evidenced by the bulging veins on his forehead.

He could guess who the anonymous informant was without even thinking about it.

Ye Xiaotian clenched his fists tightly in exasperation. Jin Qingyan had been going toe to toe against the Ye Corporation ever since he returned abroad and snatching the latter’s business deals openly. However, it had never occurred to Ye Xiaotian that Jin Qingyan would report him to the Tax and Revenue Bureau with the evidence he had. To make matters worse, the Human Resource Department also informed him that a total of ten veteran employees had tendered their resignation today. According to insider news, all of those employees had been poached by the Jin Corporation.

The fact that the employees were poached successfully just went to show that they were promised greater career prospects and better employee treatment by the Jin Corporation.

Every piece of news was fuel added to the fire burning within Ye Xiaotian, whose temples were throbbing uncontrollably.

He was driven into a corner and on the verge of a mental breakdown because of the knotty situation at hand.

There was no one he could turn to to discuss the problem at all.

Ye Xiaotian was filled with immense misery at the thought of his own wife.

Mo Li had no idea what he was thinking, nor did she bother guessing what was on his mind.

Missing her daughter, whom she had not seen in days, Mo Li decided to get the guards to bring Ye Jiani to visit her.

“Mommy!” Ye Jiani exclaimed excitedly while scurrying toward her.

Mo Li stepped forward to hug her and said, “Nini, do you miss Mommy?”

“Yes. Mommy, why are you here? I haven’t seen you in so long, come home with me,” Ye Jiani said agitatedly, throwing her arms around her mother.

“You may come and visit me when you miss me. Have you done your homework yet?”

“No, I’ll do it tomorrow.”

Mo Li caressed Ye Jiani’s hair and said, “Since you have to do it sooner or later, you might as well just complete it as soon as possible.”

“Mommy, are your hands cold? Why don’t you apply some hand cream?” Ye Jiani asked, checking Mo Li’s hands.

“I forgot to do so.”

Ye Jiani placed her hand on her face and asked, “Grandma said that you’re pregnant with my little brother now and she told me not to disturb you. Mommy, will you still love me after you give birth to my little brother?”

“Of course I will. You’ll forever be Mommy’s precious baby,” Mo Li answered, her voice trembling a little.

Ye Jiani broke into smiles and said, “I knew it.”

Mo Li felt much more at ease after looking at the blissful smile on her daughter’s face.

Not long after, Mrs. Ye arrived.

She brought Ye Jiani away with her and chided, “What did I say to you previously? Your mommy is carrying your little brother in her stomach now. Don’t keep going to disturb her. She’ll go home once she gives birth to him. Just why are you so disobedient?”

“Why did you make Mommy stay there? My classmate’s mommy still sends her to school despite being pregnant. I haven’t seen Mommy in a really long time. Why won’t you allow me to see her?” Ye Jiani questioned.

“Your mommy doesn’t want the little brother she’s carrying, that’s why I made her stay there until she gives birth to him. Once he’s born, you’ll get to see her every day. From now on, you’re not allowed to go visit her without my permission. Otherwise, I’ll punish you. You hear me?”

Ye Jiani bit her lip and remained quiet while following Mrs. Ye to her mansion.

“Madam, your sister is here. She’s waiting for you in the living room.”

“Got it.” Mrs. Ye held Ye Jiani’s hand and headed home.

The moment they entered the house, a female voice asked, “Hey, Nini, you didn’t go to school today?”

“It’s Saturday. She doesn’t have to go to school today,” said Mrs. Ye.

“Oh, right. The school should really grant them a break. Look how heavy the snow has been getting lately. Sis, where did you two go just now?” Mrs. Ye’s sister asked.

“Her mother asked to see her, but I brought her back home.” Mrs. Ye took a seat and instructed Ye Jiani, “You haven’t done your homework yet. Go upstairs and finish it.”

“Alright,” Ye Jiani answered softly and made her way upstairs.

“In my opinion, the temperature during the winter is really freezing. It’s not very appropriate for you to lock Jiani’s mother up in the ancestral hall in such weather. Why don’t you just move her to your mansion? There’s at least a heater in the room.”
