Mu Jiao'er's heart was in her throat.
What happened to Ye Zixun today? After finally taking the initiative to ask her out, why was he just staring into space? Was it her outfit and appearance that failed to catch his attention?
If she had known, she wouldn't have worn this off-the-shoulder dress.
"Ye Zixun, why did you ask me out today?"
"It's about us," Ye Zixun said, his gaze still vacant, not shifting to Mu Jiao'er’s face.
"Our situation?" Mu Jiao'er’s expression became strange, her heart racing.
Could it be... that he found out? Oh, how terrifying!
Seeing Ye Zixun's face devoid of any expression made it even more frightening for Mu Jiao'er.
Gathering her courage, she asked, "Is there something between us? Aren't we fine right now?"
"It was fine at first, but after thinking it over carefully, Jiao'er, we need to break up."
Mu Jiao'er froze, the wine glass in her hand halted mid-air in shock.
Ye Zixun's words struck her like a bolt from the blue; she couldn't process it and felt completely stiff.
How could he suddenly ask her out just to break up?
Could it be that Gu Feng told him something? Is that why he was using breaking up as a way to punish himself?
But as Mu Jiao'er thought about it carefully, this was completely out of Ye Zixun's character. He wasn't the type to let go of his enemies.
Meanwhile, Ye Zixun's gaze remained fixed on Mu Jiaoer's face.
At that moment, the appetizer was served. Ye Zixun took a bite of foie gras, then set down his fork and said calmly, "Jiao'er, I asked you out today to tell you that there is only one person I love, and that person is my wife, Lan Baobao. Therefore, I don't intend to have any relationships with other women anymore. Let's break up."
Ye Zixun has always dealt with women by throwing some money at them and then shutting the door.
If he encounters a clingy woman, he won't hesitate to be ruthless.
This time, Ye Zixun decided to break up with her and surprisingly invited her out for dinner, which startled Mu Jiao'er a bit.
"Have you seen Lan Baobao?" Mu Jiao'er's expression suddenly turned ugly.
Mu Jiao'er didn't answer Ye Zixun's question but instead changed the topic, saying, "Zi Xun, have you... reconciled with her?"
"Not yet," Ye Zixun felt no need to hide anything from Mu Jiao'er, as not telling her wouldn't affect anything.
"Lan Baobao is currently in the hospital. When she is discharged, I will naturally pick her up."
Pick her up?
Mu Jiao'er snapped back to reality, her expression somewhat strange.
Lan Baobao is in the hospital, yet Ye Zixun isn't accompanying her. Who is with Lan Baobao? Could it be Gu Feng? This guy really does have something going on with Lan Baobao.
Mu Jiao'er tentatively asked, "So, did Lan Baobao agree? Is she willing to return to Ye Family with you?"
"Even if she doesn't want to come back to Ye Family, she has to. After all, I am Lan Baobao's husband. Who can take her away from me?"
"But..."
"Don't go there. What we had is over; there is no future and no 'buts'." Ye Zixun quickly took out a check, casually wrote an amount on it, and placed it in front of Mu Jiao'er.
"Mu Jiao'er, this is money for you. I believe this amount will ensure you live comfortably and should make you happy."
Ye Zixun had no intention of having dinner with Mu Jiao'er. After placing the check down, he immediately stood up.
“Zi Xun.” Seeing Ye Zixun about to leave, Mu Jiao'er immediately stood up, grabbing his arm and pleading with tears in her eyes, “Zi Xun, please don’t treat me like this.
You are so important to me; you are my everything! I can give up anything, I don’t need a car, I don’t even need money. I just ask you not to break up with me, okay?
I just want to stay by your side like this. I won’t bother you, and I won’t make you unhappy. I promise I won’t disturb your life. Please don’t break up with me.”
“No!” Ye Zixun’s answer was very clear.
Simple enough to shatter Mu Jiao'er’s heart.
“Lan Baobao is the woman I love. My relationship with her has already caused a lot of discord because of other women. It’s all because of these damn issues! From now on, I won’t let any woman stay by my side.”
Not letting any woman stay by his side?
Could it be that Lan Baobao is really that important?
She had waited for Ye Zixun for over six years.
This long time couldn’t compare to the mere six months that Lan Baobao had been around.
She smiled self-deprecatingly, suddenly releasing the hand she had tightly grasped around Ye Zixun.
Ye Zixun didn’t linger and immediately left the restaurant.
Mu Jiao'er watched his retreating figure, her self-deprecating smile instantly disappearing, replaced by jealousy and hatred.
Lan Baobao, even if it costs me everything, I won’t let you two be together. I won’t let you be together.
“For Lan Baobao, you can treat me like this? What does she have? What does she have!” Mu Jiao'er angrily smashed everything on the table. With this check in hand, she wasn’t afraid even if she destroyed the entire restaurant.
“Lan Baobao! You shameless woman, you’ve ruined everything for me! Fine, since I have nothing left, I will ruin everything for you!”
Mu Jiao'er sat on the ground, feeling weak and powerless after venting her emotions.
A silver plate on the marble floor reflected Mu Jiao'er's lost and distorted face.
After crying and wailing, her makeup was completely ruined, with black mascara and eyeliner making her look particularly terrifying.
Suddenly, Mu Jiao'er laughed, pointing at her own reflection in the silver plate, murmuring to herself, "I will destroy you, I want to destroy you, destroy you..."
Meanwhile, Grandpa Ye arrived at the hospital with a pair of children, finally managing to find the ward where Lan Baobao was staying.
When they reached the ward, they found that Gu Feng was not there.
Grandpa Ye knocked on the door. Without waiting for a response from inside, he pushed the door open.
"Baby." Grandpa Ye affectionately called out Lan Baobao's name.
Startled, Lan Baobao looked up while taking her medicine, her gaze immediately landing on her two children.
Seeing Lan Baobao, who they hadn't seen in a long time, brother Mu and Ye Ziru couldn't control themselves and rushed to hug her.
"Mommy, Mommy... Ye Ziru misses Mommy so much."
"So do I!" brother Mu, acting like an adult, leaned over the bed and pressed his head against Lan Baobao's chest.
Looking at her two children who had jumped onto the bed, tears welled up in Lan Baobao's eyes.
They... how did they come to the hospital?
"Mommy, you're really silly! I told you to run away and travel abroad for a while. We even specially gave you the bank card from Great-Grandfather, but you silly Mommy ended up getting yourself all hurt.
If others see you like this, they'll suspect that our family's genes are not good!"
Brother Mu cast a disdainful glance at Lan Baobao, causing her to shiver.
Oh no, how could she forget that this son of hers would definitely scold her after they met.
Brother Mu first scolded Lan Baobao with righteous indignation, then his face broke into a brilliant smile as he opened his arms and pounced beside Lan Baobao, saying, "But being able to keep your life is something worth congratulating for Mommy's intelligence!"
"Mommy, Brother Mu and Ye Ziru miss you so much!"
"You all behave; Mommy misses you too and worries about you." Lan Baobao had already lost control and hugged her adorable children tightly.
How infuriating.
How can this child always make her cry so easily?
Grandpa Ye gave them a little time to let the three of them cry together for a while before he saw that they had calmed down.
Old Man Ye slowly walked forward, standing in front of Lan Baobao with a complex expression, his hands clasped behind his back.
"Baby, why are you so careless? What kind of accident happened to make you like this? You really make people worry!"
Hearing Grandpa Ye's concern, Lan Baobao finally released her children. She wiped the tears from her eyes and smiled at Grandpa Ye.
"Grandpa... I'm not worried about the accident; it's nothing serious. The doctor said I'm fine; I just need to stay in the hospital for a few days. Please don't worry!"
"Good! As long as you're okay!" Grandpa Ye looked at Lan Baobao with deep affection.
Seeing that she had only been out for a short time and had returned with bruises all over her face, he felt she really didn't take care of herself.
"Baby, I heard from Zi Xun about you and Gu Feng..."
"Grandpa, please don't talk about that in front of the kids!" As soon as Lan Baobao heard Grandpa Ye's words, she could guess what the next topic would be and immediately interrupted him.
"You see, we finally gathered together with great difficulty. Let's talk about this later."
In the next moment, Lan Baobao looked at Nursing, who had been silent in the room.
Receiving her signal, Nursing stepped forward and took the pair of children out of the ward.
Now, only Lan Baobao and Grandpa Ye remained in the ward. Lan Baobao bit her lip, deciding to tell Grandpa Ye everything that had happened.
However, before telling him, she should take him to meet someone.
"Grandpa, before we discuss that matter, I want you to come with me to meet someone, okay?" She lifted the blanket and got out of bed.
Seeing Lan Baobao wobbling as she got out of bed, Grandpa Ye's expression changed immediately, and he began to fuss.
"Baobao, what are you doing? You know your health isn't good; you shouldn't be moving around! You just don't take care of yourself. What if you end up exhausting yourself even more?"
"It's fine. My doctor said I'm almost better. I can walk around in the hospital. Grandpa, I want to take you to meet someone. Once you meet this person, you'll understand why I'm doing this."
Seeing her determined gaze, Grandpa Ye no longer tried to stop her.
