Ye Yuning detailed and divided the upcoming work, as Lei An and Ma Di knew she wouldn’t be in the studio all day. The meeting room was in an uproar again for a short while. Ye Yuning had to coax the two of them for some time before they finally let her leave without further objections. Upon leaving the meeting room, Ma Di turned to Lei An. "The boss is so smitten, she’s practically bewitched by love. When are you going to experience what that’s like?" Lei An simply shot Ma Di a disdainful look. "Why don’t you try it?" It was true, the boss seemed like a different person after getting married. She used to be completely absorbed in her work. Could a man really cause such a drastic change in a woman? Even her temper had improved... Official source ıs 𝚗𝚘𝚟𝚎𝚕·𝚏𝚒𝚛𝚎·𝚗𝚎𝚝 「At the Ye Family’s residence.」 Ye Shilong had received a call last night saying he would return immediately, but he hadn’t come back at all, and his phone had been unreachable. Zheng Cai had waited all night. Finally, he returned! Zheng Cai was somewhat displeased. "Why are you only back now? Didn’t you say yesterday you’d be right back?" Ye Shilong glared at her fiercely. "Do you think I’m having such an easy time that I can just come back whenever you summon me?" Zheng Cai was stunned by his shouting. Ye Shilong was growing increasingly impatient with her, and she was convinced Ye Tong was the cause. In her heart, her dissatisfaction with the daughter she felt she had wronged—Ye Yuning—grew even stronger. "Just tell me, what was so important that you called me back for?" Ye Shilong said irritably, yanking the tie from his neck, his tone filled with cold indifference. His coldness frightened Zheng Cai even more. "That little bitch... have you met her husband?" The term ’little bitch’ instantly made Ye Shilong’s face darken. Zheng Cai felt the surge of aggressive energy emanating from him and was momentarily stunned. Then she stammered, "Well, I actually...!" But before she could elaborate, Ye Shilong’s icy glare choked the words back down her throat. Clearly, Zheng Cai’s dissatisfaction with Ye Yuning wasn’t a recent development. She had long been accustomed to using such derogatory terms for her. Although Ye Shilong had warned her repeatedly, she couldn’t change her habit overnight. "Oh, don’t look at me like that." Zheng Cai felt a little guilty under his gaze. She knew that if the company was really in as much trouble as Ye Shilong had claimed, their current situation was dire. Ye Shilong said in an icy voice, "It seems you haven’t taken my warnings to heart at all." Hearing his unprecedented coldness, Zheng Cai grew even more flustered. She timidly explained, "Don’t worry, I haven’t acted this way in front of Ye Yuning." "I want you to treat her with genuine sincerity!" Ye Shilong roared. "People aren’t fools; they can sense whether kindness is genuine or not." Ye Shilong was now painfully aware of the viciousness Zheng Cai had previously shown towards Ye Yuning. Before Zheng Cai could speak, he snorted coldly. "She refuses to help us, and it’s all your fault!" Zheng Cai was speechless. "..." What did he mean by that? Was he blaming her for everything? Zheng Cai stared at Ye Shilong, feeling suffocated and wanting to retort. But Ye Shilong continued, "It’s definitely impossible to send Siyu to Mr. Qi now. Our only option is to find a way through Yuning." Although he had been rebuffed in Ye Yuning’s office before, they had no other choice. Who would have thought Ye Yuning would become so capable? Now, their only option was to be patient and keep trying to win her over. When Mr. Qi and Zheng Siyu were mentioned, Zheng Cai couldn’t hold back a grumble. "Of course, it’s impossible. Mr. Qi is already married." The moment she finished speaking, Ye Shilong’s gaze fixed sharply on her. Zheng Cai retorted, "Don’t look at me like that! Ye Yuning’s husband is Mr. Qi! She married Mr. Qi and kept it hidden from us, terrified we’d try to benefit from her connection!" Ye Shilong’s words had made Zheng Cai miserable, so she tried to redirect his anger toward Ye Yuning. Remembering the price the Qin Family had exacted from them, Zheng Cai grew even more furious. That little bitch, she really was something else. To think she found Mr. Qi and married him in such a short time! No wonder she wasn’t afraid of the Qin Family back then. So, she had Mr. Qi backing her all along! Hearing Zheng Cai’s furious outburst, Ye Shilong’s mind went blank. "What nonsense are you spouting?" "I’m not spouting nonsense! This time, Siyu failed to get anywhere with Mr. Qi. Tongtong faced such severe retaliation, and she failed too!" "Of course, I know she failed!" Ye Shilong roared. If Ye Tong had succeeded, they wouldn’t have suffered such a blow from the Xiao Corporation. Zheng Cai pressed on, "Yes, Siyu failed because of Tongtong. But Tongtong failed because of Ye Yuning! She married Mr. Qi a long time ago!" Ye Shilong was utterly stunned. He stared at Zheng Cai in disbelief. The news was so sudden, like a clap of thunder, leaving him completely unable to process it.
