"Sister Lan, who was the person that just came?" Nursing had been eating with Lan Baobao and had placed a plate of salad and milk on the table.
Lan Baobao evasively replied, "Oh, it was just the newspaper delivery person asking if we needed anything, and I turned them down."
"I see. Then we need to talk to the property management about this; we shouldn't let such people in anymore!"
"There's no need for that; they are just trying to make a living! Come on, sit down and eat, Aunt Zhang, you should hurry up and join us too!"
"Okay, I'm coming right away; I'm just finishing the last dish!"
Aunt Zhang cut the last pork chop into small pieces with scissors, sprinkled a little pepper on it, and brought it to the table.
The breakfast was well-balanced with meat, grains, milk, and eggs—a truly excellent combination.
Seeing the beautiful breakfast lifted Lan Baobao's spirits significantly.
Three hours later, Lan Baobao dressed and headed out. It wasn't convenient to catch a taxi outside the apartment building; she had to walk quite a distance to find one.
With a serious expression, she walked along the road when suddenly she passed by a shop selling magazines and newspapers. She abruptly stopped as her gaze fell upon a magazine featuring an image of Mu Jiao'er being assaulted.
Wait, it seemed like Mu Jiao'er was enjoying it.
But who released such content? Now that Mu Jiao'er was dead, who would publish something like this? Do they not spare even the deceased?
Suddenly, Lan Baobao thought of someone—Ye Zixun.
"Excuse me, I want this," Lan Baobao said as she pulled out some change and picked up the magazine.
Before long, she was sitting in a taxi, looking at the contents of the magazine. The article about Mu Jiao'er was extensive and seemed deliberately sensationalized; every event described felt like a personal experience, each detail appearing disturbingly vivid. Lan Baobao grew increasingly fearful that this matter might indeed be related to Ye Zixun.
If it was really Ye Zixun who did this, he not only made Mu Jiao'er suffer humiliation, but also tarnished her reputation. Isn't such a method of revenge too cruel and unacceptable?
"Driver, to Ye Group."
After hearing Lan Baobao's words, the taxi driver immediately started the engine and headed towards the group. Along the way, he kept glancing at Lan Baobao in the rearview mirror, thinking that he must have seen this woman somewhere before; why does she look so familiar?
However, after a while, he couldn't recall where he had seen her, so he focused on driving.
In less than an hour, Lan Baobao arrived at Ye Group. But before she could get out of the car, she saw that the entrance of Ye Group was crowded with reporters.
Many people knew about the relationship between Mu Jiao'er and Ye Zixun, and it seemed they were there to clarify matters regarding Mu Jiao'er. Perhaps they were still unaware of the news that Mu Jiao'er was already dead.
"Sister, aren't we going to Ye Group? Why aren't you getting out?"
"Driver, take the car around to the back of the building. I'll get out there."
Upon hearing Lan Baobao's words, the driver immediately revved the engine and drove towards the back of the building. The car quickly arrived outside the underground parking lot, and Lan Baobao got out and walked into the parking garage.
This was the only way to safely enter the elevator; it was impossible to go in through the front given the current situation outside. Entering from the underground parking lot was much more convenient.
She took the elevator up to Ye Zixun's office. The Secretary, recognizing Lan Baobao, naturally did not stop her as she barged into the office holding a magazine.
Furious, she stormed up to Ye Zixun and angrily threw the magazine in front of him.
Ye Zixun glanced at the magazine and then looked up at Lan Baobao, his tone gentle and filled with an unusual tenderness towards her.
"Lan Baobao, you should be at home resting properly and taking care of your health."
"Ye Zixun, don’t talk to me about my child! I came here because I have something to ask you! I want to know what is going on right now!" At that moment, as she saw him smile at her, Lan Baobao felt both fear and horror towards Ye Zixun.
In the past, Ye Zixun was a jerk; now, Ye Zixun is a super terrifying demon.
There is a huge difference between the two.
Lan Baobao feels scared.
"Alright, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"What to talk about? Can't you see for yourself? The magazine is right in front of you; take a look."
Hearing this, Ye Zixun lowered his head to glance at the magazine, and the gentleness on his face disappeared.
"Baby, you stormed into my office with such momentum just to discuss this matter with me?"
"How can you be so relaxed? Didn't you do this?"
"I did? Baby, slandering others is not a good habit; once formed, it's hard to change!"
"Ye Zixun, do you still want to quibble in front of me? How could you be so cruel to her? After all, she was a woman who loved you!"
Ye Zixun's expression immediately darkened. He coldly glanced at the magazine and pushed that filthy thing aside.
This must have been told to her by Mu Jiao'er. Hasn't this woman learned her lesson yet? How dare she disturb Lan Baobao?
She really doesn't know her place.
"Since you already know, why bother asking me?" Ye Zixun no longer hid anything; he felt even less that he had done anything wrong in this matter.
Ye Zixun's calmness only made Lan Baobao feel even more terrified!
Lan Baobao looked at Ye Zixun in disbelief. How could he be so indifferent, showing no guilt at all? Did he not realize that Mu Jiao'er had lost her life because of what she did for him?
Even if Mu Jiao'er was trash, a jerk, and her actions were worse than those of pigs or dogs, Ye Zixun should not treat her this way.
Isn't what he is doing even more beastly than Mu Jiao'er?
"Ye Zixun, you terrify me. You make me feel scared."
Ye Zixun immediately walked around the desk and approached Lan Baobao. He grabbed Lan Baobao's shoulders tightly. "Lan Baobao, do you know that what you just said hurts me? You were the one who told me to teach her a lesson, to make her disappear from our world forever. Isn't the current outcome good enough?"
"Why, when you were so determined to achieve your goal, I have already done it, and now you still want to blame me!"
"Hurt? Heartbroken?" Lan Baobao shook his head and pushed Ye Zixun away in disgust.
The things he had done to himself seemed unimportant now; it was his treatment of Mu Jiao'er that made him terrifying.
"Ye Zixun, I didn't let you hurt her like this!"
"Then how would she listen? If I hadn't done this, she'd still be around us causing trouble. Is this what you wanted to see?"
"But there are many other ways to be tough. Why did you have to choose this method? Ye Zixun, it's truly terrifying!"
"So what?" Ye Zixun felt no remorse regarding Mu Jiao'er; in his eyes, she was nothing at all.
Moreover, Mu Jiao'er had repeatedly harmed the woman he cared about; she deserved to be taught a lesson. This was merely a punishment for Mu Jiao'er.
"Have you forgotten everything Mu Jiao'er has done? She should feel the consequences!"
"Ye Zixun, do you know that Mu Jiao'er is dead?"
A roar made Ye Zixun pause for a moment, then the corners of his mouth curled up. "Lan Baobao, are you joking? Even if you encountered an accident and died, she wouldn't choose death."
"It's true, she died in front of me." Lan Baobao's serious expression forced others to believe her words. "This morning, the police came to my apartment. Mu Jiao'er called me out before jumping into the sea and told me some things."
Ye Zixun understood; it was Mu Jiao'er who actively sought out Lan Baobao. Wasn't this matter even stranger?
If she truly wanted to die, if she had really given up on herself, why would she want to see Lan Baobao before dying?
What was her purpose? What exactly were Mu Jiao'er's intentions? He couldn't believe she wanted to confess to Lan Baobao as a final act of repentance; if that were the case, she wouldn't have died in front of Lan Baobao.
That wretched Mu Jiao'er, even in death, wouldn’t let him have a moment of peace!
"Ye Zixun, what are you thinking? Did you hear what I said?" Realizing Ye Zixun was lost in thought, Lan Baobao shouted hoarsely.
Ye Zixun came back to his senses, his somber gaze locking onto Lan Baobao's face.
"Baby, have you told anyone about this?"
"No, I haven't told anyone. I need to confirm whether it was you who did this. I need to know if you committed such a despicable act; this is inhumane."
"That's right, it was me." Ye Zixun had already admitted it earlier; there was no need to deny it now. He said calmly, "However, I never intended to kill Mu Jiao'er.
If she wants to die, that's her own business; it has nothing to do with me. I'm not the one who murdered her."
"But you used methods more painful than death to punish Mu Jiao'er!"
Ye Zixun sighed heavily in his heart. This woman was too kind—so kind that just a word from someone could soften her heart. Right now, all she saw was how much harm Mu Jiao'er had suffered, completely forgetting the harm Mu Jiao'er had caused her at that time, just like Mu Jiangfeng.
Lan Baobao was indeed very sincere and kind-hearted, but more often than not, her sincerity and kindness made Ye Zixun feel a headache.
Gu Feng has been hesitant to take action against Mu Jiao'er, probably because of Lan Baobao's strange thoughts, which led to abandoning the handling of Mu Jiao'er.
“Lan Baobao, even if she wants to suffer, it's her own doing.” Ye Zixun turned and sat on the office sofa, his gaze becoming incredibly deep. “Out of the years of friendship we shared, I simply gave her some money and told her to leave. If anything happens now, it is her own fault.”
“How can you say such things?” Lan Baobao frowned tightly.
Ye Zixun's actions at that time were indeed merciful, but in the end, he still had someone gang-rape Mu Jiao'er. It was because of this that Mu Jiao'er died.
How could he be so heartless?
Seeing her expression, Ye Zixun felt a dull ache in his heart.
Damn it, when would her overflowing sympathy disappear?
When would she become a little more mature?
“Lan Baobao, have you ever thought that if I don't let Mu Jiao'er taste the consequences, then the one who dies won't be her, but you, Mu Jiangfeng, and our child? Do you want something to happen to her or do you want something to happen to our child? Alive, do you want yourself and Mu Jiangfeng to die?”
