When she saw the cameras, she suddenly remembered something and immediately pushed Chen Wei in front of her. Chen Wei was stunned. Before she could speak, Ye Yuning said, "I have a headache and I’m going to find a place to rest. You hold the fort here for a while." Chen Wei: Hold the fort here? With so many cameras around, this young boss is becoming more and more unreasonable. In such a situation, she’s complaining about a headache and even wants to find a place to rest. Is this a time to rest? Chen Wei was utterly frustrated, but she felt helpless having such a young boss. Fine, she has status in the industry, so she can be capricious! Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Jiang, and Mrs. Chen, all good friends of Zheng Cai, had also come with their husbands. The issue with the Xiao family’s company yesterday had been fleeting. The controversy over the design draft hadn’t lasted long before it was suppressed. Therefore, these ladies were still unaware of the truth. Seeing that Ye Yuning had arrived, Mrs. Jiang couldn’t help but ask Mrs. Wang, "Why haven’t Mrs. Ye and her biological daughter arrived yet? The adopted daughter is already here." Mrs. Wang scoffed. "It’s better if they don’t come. Just look at this adopted daughter, how capable she is. It’s not just about her own capabilities. The designers she’s launched from her studio are also top-notch." Mrs. Wang’s gaze lingered on Ye Yuning as she spoke. She also occasionally glanced towards Lei An. After a few words from Zheng Cai, her husband was the first to give Ye Tong a project. Previously, they had always collaborated with Ye Yuning. Her husband said that the designs Ye Tong made were terrible. And she still thinks she can become the future star of the industry? What a joke! Now, just the mention of Ye Tong made Mrs. Wang furious. Hearing Mrs. Wang’s sarcastic tone, Mrs. Jiang was taken aback. "Are you alright?" "I’m fine. I just think her adopted daughter is more impressive!" Mrs. Jiang’s mouth twitched. She stopped discussing the matter with Mrs. Wang but quietly made a call to Zheng Cai. Zheng Cai, on her end, was still furious about Ye Yuning’s call. When she saw the call from Mrs. Jiang, she didn’t want to answer. However, she worried about what these people might be thinking behind her back. Finally, biting the bullet, she answered, "Mrs. Jiang." "Mrs. Ye, why haven’t you and Tongtong arrived yet? The exhibition has already started, and your husband isn’t here either!" Hearing this made Zheng Cai furious. Go to the exhibition? How could I go? Ye Tong’s qualification to participate has been revoked! And I don’t believe Mrs. Jiang is unaware of the situation. She definitely called me deliberately! These wretched women, always ready to pounce on any hint of scandal, shamelessly eager for gossip! Zheng Cai was seething. But she still said, "There’s a bit of a situation here. We’re not coming over today." "What? You’re not coming? Tickets for this exhibition are incredibly hard to get! You..." "I have other things to do. Enjoy yourself. I’m hanging up!" Before Mrs. Jiang could finish her exclamation, Zheng Cai angrily hung up the phone. Doesn’t she know how rare tickets to that exhibition are? This Ye Tong, she really infuriates me... Last night, when Ye Shilong had been raging about this, she had still tried to calm him down. But now that she had lost face in front of those people, she too had become dissatisfied with her biological daughter, Ye Tong. After all, she didn’t grow up by my side. How could I blindly trust her with so many things? And now, look! We’ve lost so much money because of this! Ye Shilong came downstairs, startling Zheng Cai. "Why are you still at home?" He’s usually at the company at this time. And Ye Shilong’s expression doesn’t look good either. This made Zheng Cai even more apprehensive. Ye Shilong had, in fact, received several calls about Ye Tong early that morning, all concerning the exhibition. He was already seething with anger. Glaring at her, he asked, "Where’s Ye Tong?" "She went to the studio. What’s wrong?" "Ha! What’s wrong?" Ye Shilong fumed. "She has completely disgraced me! Tell her to shut down that studio immediately! It’s utterly shameful and a disgrace!" Hearing this, Zheng Cai understood what he was upset about. After that call from Mrs. Jiang, she too had felt an unprecedented wave of embarrassment. Last night, when Ye Shilong had expressed his dissatisfaction with Ye Tong, she had still managed to say a few words to placate him. Now, however, she found herself unable to say anything. She could only sigh deeply. Ye Shilong said, "You’re being foolish. No matter that Ye Yuning isn’t biologically ours, she has brought many benefits to the Ye Family over the years." "Although Tongtong is our biological daughter, she’s struggled all these years out there. Do you really think it’s possible to elevate her to a position higher than Yuning’s?" Hearing this, Zheng Cai’s breath hitched. In the past, whenever Ye Shilong had said such things, she rarely listened. Now, however, his words truly struck home. You can’t forcefully promote someone who lacks real capabilities. Even if you manage to push them up, it’s only a matter of time before they capsize. She was witnessing that firsthand now.
