This Xiao Shuo, really doing such a thing right under Xiao Linye’s watchful eyes, huh!? This is absolutely outrageous! She sent a direct message to Chen Wei, "Send it to Ye Tong." As always, when Xiao Shuo wanted to drag her into the fray, she would just redirect it onto Ye Tong. If Ye Tong didn’t know about it now, finding out later would only lead her to lash out at herself. But if the roses were delivered to Ye Tong as is, even if Ye Tong went mad at her, she would also go after Xiao Shuo. Going to hell, is it? Then she would drag Xiao Shuo down to hell with her! Ye Tong hadn’t slept well all night. Unlike Ye Yuning, she was in a foul mood. In the morning, she didn’t come downstairs, and Zheng Cai didn’t send someone to call her. Ye Shilong asked, "Why hasn’t she gotten up yet?" He was already somewhat dissatisfied with her; now, everything she did seemed to be wrong. Zheng Cai replied, "Let her sleep a bit longer." Coming back like that last night, she must have been feeling terrible. There was no telling what time she actually fell asleep. If Ye Tong were sleeping normally, she would have already come down by now. Ye Shilong’s anger hadn’t subsided. His irritation even extended to Zheng Cai. He said with a tone far from friendly, "You need to discipline her properly. She can’t go on being so disgraceful." If this continued, the Ye Corporation would be ruined. Ye Shilong had also realized the main reason for their inability to clinch those projects. Zheng Cai nodded noncommittally. "I got it!" When it came to Ye Tong’s issues, she really didn’t want to discuss a single thing now. However, her dismissive attitude only added fuel to Ye Shilong’s fire. He held back, but ultimately couldn’t contain himself. He threw his chopsticks onto the table with a CLATTER, startling Zheng Cai into full alertness. She looked at Ye Shilong, confused. Ye Shilong said, "It seems you didn’t take my words to heart at all!" "No, how did I not listen? I said I got it. I will deal with her." She had said so already, what more did he want? Ye Shilong stated, "I’m talking about Ye Yuning. Do you have any idea how much the Ye Corporation has lost because of Ye Tong during this period?" Ye Yuning brought benefits to the Ye Corporation, while Ye Tong brought catastrophe. Just the thought of it made Ye Shilong’s heart ache with anger. Zheng Cai argued, "Why keep harping on Tongtong? She is already very upset. Do you have any idea what your father said to her yesterday?" To think he would tell her to leave at such a grand event! Just thinking about it made Zheng Cai feel aggrieved on behalf of Ye Tong. Ye Shilong, already angry, grew even more incensed upon hearing Zheng Cai’s words. He was already at his wits’ end, and she was here fretting over petty family matters? "Do you still not grasp the severity of the situation?" he demanded. "If you think the old man was too harsh on her, then she should show some competence to make the old man treat her well." Zheng Cai was silent. Ye Shilong continued, "It’s precisely because she tried to show off that she turned the Xiao Corporation into a laughingstock. Now, many partners don’t want anything to do with us. Do you really want to go back to being a convenience store owner?" Hearing that the Ye Corporation was in such a predicament because Ye Tong had ruined the Nanjia Peak project, Zheng Cai was frightened. Especially since Ye Shilong appeared in no way to be joking. Her complexion turned several shades paler. "No, can it really be that serious?" she asked. Ye Shilong said through clenched teeth, "The Xiao Corporation has been seemingly indifferent, but this has already caused the Ye Corporation to be punished." Although the Xiao Corporation didn’t pursue Ye Tong’s accountability, it was perhaps to avoid escalating the situation and the public ridicule that would come with it. Yet, the Ye Corporation was struggling to move forward because of this incident. Hearing the word "punishment," Zheng Cai’s face turned completely white. "You, you don’t have to panic," she stammered. "What about Mr. Seven?" "Mr. Seven’s deal hasn’t even started," Ye Shilong retorted. "Whether we can rely on Siyu or not is still uncertain." Zheng Cai remained silent. "Don’t cause any more trouble with Ye Yuning!" Ye Shilong warned. Things would have been better if Ye Yuning hadn’t been mentioned. But bringing her up made Zheng Cai’s expression change. She really disliked that girl! Ye Shilong said, "You need to understand that if Siyu doesn’t manage to win over Mr. Seven, the only one the Ye Corporation can rely on will be Ye Yuning." "Is the company’s situation really that serious?" Zheng Cai asked, somewhat breathlessly. Ye Shilong stated flatly, "It’s worse than you think!" Zheng Cai was speechless. It was worse than she thought. Their current lifestyle was hard-won, and Zheng Cai never wanted to return to their past life. Seeing her silent, Ye Shilong continued, "Don’t force my hand. If you keep being obstinate, we’ll just..." Just what? Ye Shilong looked at Zheng Cai, his eyes sharp as a hawk’s at that moment! And Zheng Cai, even though Ye Shilong didn’t finish his sentence, now understood perfectly well. Her face turned even whiter.
