「Back at Xiao Corporation.」 Ye Yuning’s mind kept replaying the scene from Manyue Restaurant at noon! Thinking about Xiao Linye’s suspicion of her in the car outside the restaurant gave her a splitting headache. So much so that she hardly did any design work in the afternoon. When Tang Xi’s call came, she was still in a daze. Seeing it was Tang Xi’s number, she hurriedly answered, "Xixi, baby!" Tang Xi sensed something off in her tone and asked, "Are you alright? Why do you sound so listless?" "I feel like I’m going to crash and burn," Ye Yuning said with a whine. Up to now, she still didn’t know whether Xiao Linye had believed her at noon or not. In any case, her heart was really troubled! As soon as Tang Xi heard this, she gasped over the phone. "What’s going on?" "Ahh, you have no idea. I feel like Xiao Linye is starting to suspect me." "Give me the details!" Tang Xi demanded. This was the first time she had seen Ye Yuning . No matter the situation, Ye Yuning always seemed to have full control over matters. Now, hearing her tone, it felt like things were truly spiraling out of her control, didn’t it? Ye Yuning recounted the whole situation from noon. When she thought of Xiao Shuo and Ye Tong, rage started to billow in her heart. She wished she could tear those two rotten people to pieces! Whenever she encountered them, nothing good ever happened. As Tang Xi listened, she was also taken aback. When Ye Yuning finished, Tang Xi sighed and said, "Then you really are in quite a bit of danger now." "Ah, you think so too? Am I really done for?" Upon hearing Tang Xi’s words, Ye Yuning felt even more deflated. Tang Xi asked, "Are you still working at Xiao Corporation now?" Ye Yuning replied, "Yeah!" "As the owner of Manlang, even if you don’t show your face often, haven’t all those award-winning photos of yours made it to the front page before?" Ye Yuning said, "So?" Her breath caught in her throat. Done for! Now, she was really in trouble. "You even went to work at the same company as him! How many people at Xiao Corporation must know you? Since you weren’t ready for him to know who you are, how could you dare to go to Xiao Corporation? What on earth were you thinking?" Ye Yuning held her forehead. "Stop, just stop talking." Her mind was truly numb at this moment. Regarding Xiao Corporation, she had barely made any appearances before because Chen Wei was the one handling the negotiations. The only person at Xiao Corporation who was familiar with her was Lai Shuo! She thought that since Lai Shuo had been transferred to the eastern region, she was safe. Tang Xi said, "How could you be so bold? Baby, I realize you’re getting bolder and bolder." Tang Xi had never expected that Ye Yuning would dare to work in the same company as Xiao Linye. But then Tang Xi added, "But even if he knows your identity, it doesn’t matter, right? He’s not a phoenix man like Jiang Bo; it doesn’t matter to him that you’re wealthy." Yes, that was true; she also felt like it might be okay to let him know now. But the problem still felt wrong somehow; she felt uneasy about confessing to him in this way. Tang Xi suggested, "Why don’t you just tell him and get it over with? Better than living in constant fear." In Tang Xi’s view, Ye Yuning’s current life was absolutely miserable. Better to just come clean than to live under such a shadow! Hearing the suggestion to tell Xiao Linye outright, Ye Yuning immediately rejected the idea. "No, that’s not possible." "What’s wrong now?" Tang Xi was exasperated. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⟡𝕗𝗂𝗋𝖾⟡𝕟𝕖𝕥 Ye Yuning said, "You forgot about Xiao Shuo!" As soon as Xiao Shuo was mentioned, her mind also went numb. Right, Xiao Linye was a good man, not a phoenix man; it seemed it wouldn’t matter if he knew Ye Yuning’s real identity. But here comes the problem! She was Xiao Shuo’s ex-fiancée, and for any man, that would be something to mind, wouldn’t it? Especially with Xiao Linye working at Xiao Corporation; for him to have married the ex-fiancée of the profligate Third Young Master, Xiao Shuo—well, that wouldn’t look good at all. The complexity of the matter made even Tang Xi sharply suck in her breath on Ye Yuning’s behalf! "Let me tell you, Ye Yuning, it seems you’re playing with pretty high stakes this time!" All this maneuvering had roped in a whole host of other problems... This wasn’t just playing with high stakes; she was practically digging her own grave! Ye Yuning held her forehead. "When I married him, I didn’t know he was with Xiao Corporation." About this, Ye Yuning was really at her wit’s end. Tang Xi snorted coldly. "What did you know about him at the time? You knew nothing." That hit home. At the time, she was so enraged by the Ye Family that nothing else really mattered; all she wanted was to find someone to marry. Who would have thought that the man she randomly chose to marry would still be with her now? Ye Yuning’s spirits instantly sagged. "So what should I do now?"
