「At the Ye Family household!」 Ye Shilong looked at Zheng Cai, his face dark with anger. Meeting his icy and gloomy gaze, Zheng Cai felt a bit guilty. "What, what are you looking at me like that for?" Ye Shilong’s teacup smashed heavily onto the ground, startling Zheng Cai so much that she trembled. Lately, Ye Shilong had often lost his temper at home, a behavior that had never happened before. Now, was it because their daughter had returned to his side that he had completely run out of patience? Gasping for breath, Zheng Cai looked at Ye Shilong. "In your heart, do Tongtong and I really matter less than the Ye Corporation?" For the company, he had been furrowing his brows and glaring around the house recently. Zheng Cai could no longer bear it. Nobody knew just how miserable her days had been lately. She had shared in his struggles too, hadn’t she? So what? Now that he had money, he had become impatient with her? Ye Shilong glared at her coldly and huffed, "What do you two amount to? You live off me, yet you stir up trouble every single day!" "What trouble did I stir up?" Zheng Cai retorted. Ye Tong had indeed caused quite a bit of trouble lately. Thinking about what happened at Re earlier, Zheng Cai also felt angry. Her own daughter, not bearing even a hint of a rich heiress’s grace! Ye Shilong asked, "Who told you that Ye Yuning’s husband is Mister Qi?" Zheng Cai replied, "What do you mean?" "Her husband isn’t Mister Qi at all, Zheng Cai. When will you ever change this wretched habit of yours of chasing shadows?" The memory of the rebuff he had just received from Ye Yuning made Ye Shilong fume. He had spoken so frankly, yet Ye Yuning hadn’t yielded an inch. This only confirmed that her relationship with Mister Qi was not as Zheng Cai had described. The thought of being so thoroughly humiliated in front of a junior, all because of Zheng Cai’s unsubstantiated claim, made Ye Shilong’s anger boil over, becoming uncontrollable. Hearing this, Zheng Cai’s face turned ashen. "Me, chasing shadows? Wasn’t that what Ye Yuning herself said? She’s just making excuses because she doesn’t want to help you, and now you turn around and question me? After all these years of marriage, you don’t trust me at all?" "Enough!" Ye Shilong snapped. "She’s not as despicable as you think." On his way back, he had been reflecting on Ye Yuning’s attitude. It hadn’t seemed like a refusal. Rather, she and Mister Qi truly didn’t have the kind of relationship Zheng Cai had described. Looking back at Zheng Cai, however, she had been causing a lot of trouble recently! Zheng Cai was speechless. "..." Already pale, her face blanched further at Ye Shilong’s shout; she was too choked with anger to speak. Ye Shilong continued, "Let’s get a divorce." Zheng Cai stared at Ye Shilong in shock. At that moment, Ye Shilong was utterly disappointed in Zheng Cai. Ever since Ye Tong had returned, her narrow-minded, subjective views had become particularly pronounced, and she had even tried to influence him. His decision to seek out Ye Yuning today was undoubtedly influenced by Zheng Cai’s claim that ’her husband is Mister Qi’! And thinking about it carefully, considering the timeline, how could Ye Yuning and Mister Qi possibly not know each other at all? Zheng Cai’s face was completely drained of color. She trembled all over, her mind going blank. As her thoughts swirled, the BANG of a slamming door snapped her back to reality. Divorce...! The word ’divorce’ Ye Shilong had just uttered had been so firm. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢·𝔫𝔢𝔱 She collapsed powerlessly to the ground, cold sweat breaking out on her forehead. When Ye Tong arrived and saw Zheng Cai sitting on the ground, she noticed nothing amiss. Instead, feeling even more aggrieved, she sat down beside Zheng Cai and asked, "Mom, do you really wish I hadn’t come back?" As soon as the words left her mouth, Zheng Cai’s slap landed heavily on Ye Tong’s face. Zheng Cai was trembling with anger. Ye Tong’s head buzzed from the slap. Zheng Cai seethed, "Yes! You useless thing, you utter disgrace!" Why had Mrs. Wang ridiculed her like that? What on earth had Ye Tong done before she arrived at that place? The more Zheng Cai thought about it, the angrier she became. Under this blunt criticism, tears streamed down Ye Tong’s face, and she felt so choked up she couldn’t utter a single word. Zheng Cai met Ye Tong’s grievance-filled eyes. All compassion she might have felt was gone, replaced by utter impatience. She stood up abruptly, turned, and stormed furiously out the door. Ye Tong remained seated, her heart aching fiercely. As the door shut, she screamed hysterically, releasing her pent-up anger and resentment. 「Meanwhile, at the studio.」 Ye Yuning carefully examined the antique watch in her hand. When I found this last time, I wanted to go back to the Ye Family to see if it was a set with the one Zheng Cai has! But then I got entangled in all sorts of frustrating matters! It seems I still need to go back and check sometime. Just as she put the item back into her bag, Luo Xin knocked urgently before rushing in. "Boss, that woman is here again!" Ye Yuning was speechless. "..." Her hand, still in her bag, froze when she heard Zheng Cai had come.
