Lan Baobao was suddenly speechless. Mu Jiao'er's personality... maybe she wouldn't, or maybe she would continue to hurt herself and her children.
After struggling for a while, Lan Baobao finally reached a conclusion.
Given Mu Jiao'er's personality, she would definitely look for opportunities to take action against them.
Mu Jiao'er truly deserved to die, but...
Lan Baobao trembled as she took a few steps back.
“Lan Baobao, judging by your expression, you should know the answer. You are well aware that everything I do is for you both.”
Ye Zixun stepped forward, gently embracing the dazed Lan Baobao. “It was indeed my fault to be with Mu Jiao'er to achieve my goals, but now everything is over. I’m back, and I will protect you and our child.”
“What do we do now?” Lan Baobao's mind was in chaos; she could no longer process Ye Zixun's words.
“The police have already come to investigate me; they will definitely investigate you too!?”
Ye Zixun immediately stood up and pulled the confused woman to sit beside him. He held her shoulders and comforted her.
“You're such a silly child. Mu Jiao'er committed suicide; we didn’t kill her.
Lan Baobao, listen to me. You don’t know anything, do you? For the sake of our child, you must remember this.”
“I…” She was scared, afraid that she wouldn’t be able to lie in front of the police, afraid of revealing something that would give them clues, and even more afraid of not being able to protect her child.
“Shh! No need to speak; just remember that Mu Jiao'er chose to commit suicide because I broke up with her.”
"I... I remember!"
Ye Zixun noticed her fear and stopped her from saying more, pulling her into his embrace. He held her quietly, as if giving her strength.
After a while, Ye Zixun finally released the woman from his arms.
He held her gently and said, "Don't worry, okay? Give me a smile!"
Lan Baobao forced a silly smile in his palm.
Ye Zixun chuckled at her expression, "What kind of smile is that? It looks worse than crying. Do you want me to show you how it's done?"
"Who asked you to demonstrate for me! This is not the time for jokes, annoying!" Lan Baobao punched him lightly.
Ye Zixun's smile relaxed a bit more.
It had been a long time since he had seen Lan Baobao's cute complaining side, which made Ye Zixun feel a little happy.
"Alright, no need to be so down. The person who committed murder isn't us; she took her own life. Don't think about it too much!"
He stood up and walked to the desk, picking up the microphone. He instructed the Secretary on the other end of the phone.
"Let the reporters in."
"Reporters? President, do you really want to meet those reporters? They are like wolves right now; I think it's better not to meet them. It might harm you," came the hesitant voice from the Secretary.
Ye Zixun frowned, it seemed that the employees of the company were slowly starting to get out of his control, weren't they?
"Remember, I am the person in charge of this company. You do what I say. Now follow my orders and let them in immediately."
With that, Ye Zixun hung up.
Lan Baobao suddenly stood up. At this moment, why did Ye Zixun still want to meet with the group of reporters outside the building? This was a sensitive time; wasn't meeting those reporters just going to escalate the situation?
"Ye Zixun, are you sure you want to meet those reporters? It's right at the peak of the storm now; meeting them will cause you a lot of trouble!"
"They must be met!" Ye Zixun turned around, smiling confidently and said, "Baby, don't worry. The police won't find any evidence no matter how they investigate. Besides, Mu Jiao'er's death was caused by her own actions; who can be imprisoned for that? Today's press conference is just the right opportunity to clarify things."
"But you had someone rape her? If people find out..."
"To men, Mu Jiao'er was merely a tool for pleasure, do you understand? Do you know how many men she has slept with?"
"Are you implying...?" Lan Baobao widened her eyes in disbelief. Did Mu Jiao'er, besides Ye Zixun, have other men?
"Just like what you saw in your magazine, what's so big about those photos? This is just the kind of thing she usually does; there's no need for you to be nervous." Ye Zixun was relaxed.
Lan Baobao felt increasingly cold at heart. Was Ye Zixun this cruel because he had experienced Ye Ziru's incident, or had he always been this ruthless?
That bastard Mu Jiao'er was really unfortunate to have ended up with a man like Ye Zixun.
Before long, the reporters surged into Ye Zixun's office.
Ye Zixun pulled Lan Baobao to sit beside him, and a disguised smile was on Lan Baobao's face.
His hand always held Lan Baobao's hand, affectionately comforting her.
"President Ye, I wonder if you are aware of the facts published in this magazine?" Suddenly, a reporter took out the magazine.
Before Ye Zixun could respond, another reporter noticed the magazine on Ye Zixun's desk and began to press the issue. "President Ye, you must already know about this matter; otherwise, how could this magazine be on your desk?"
"Everyone, please calm down. I know that you want to ask these questions, which is why I called this press conference," Ye Zixun said calmly in the face of the situation, as if he didn't care whether they would touch upon this matter. He seemed well-prepared and had methods to deal with it. "I invited all of you reporters here to clarify this matter."
Instantly, the office fell silent. Cameras, photo equipment, and microphones were all aimed at Ye Zixun, as if no one wanted to miss out on this major scoop.
After all, it was big news; if they missed or lost important parts of it, they would surely have trouble explaining back at the office—demotions or even being fired could be on the line.
"Actually, I was surprised that this magazine came out today.
You might all think that I have a relationship with Mu Jiao'er; she was once my lover for six years before my marriage.
After getting married, we maintained our relationship for a while. You all must think that I should know about this matter; however, I want to tell everyone that the person I truly love is my wife, Lan Baobao." As he spoke, Ye Zixun looked at his wife beside him, tightening his grip on Lan Baobao's hand a little. "Not long ago, I already broke up with Mu Jiao'er. Our relationship ended at that time.
As for what actions Mu Jiao'er may take afterward, it has nothing to do with me."
"Mrs. Ye, is everything as President Ye said? Do you also know about this matter and that President Ye broke up with Sister Mu?" Suddenly, a reporter turned the focus onto Lan Baobao.
"Mrs. Ye, please answer this question. Are you aware of Mr. Ye's breakup with Sister Mu?"
Lan Baobao's expression changed; she seemed to look at Ye Zixun for help.
Ye Zixun, receiving the gaze of the woman he loved, suddenly grabbed her shoulder and declared to everyone the authenticity of his words.
"Everyone, is it not obvious enough? The relationship between my wife and me is something no one can interfere with." With that, Ye Zixun couldn't help but let out a sentimental sigh. "In the past, there were some misunderstandings between my wife and me. I have to admit that Mu Jiao'er was a weapon I used to retaliate against my wife.
However, those misunderstandings have been resolved recently, and my wife is now over two months pregnant. This is great news for me. I believe I have no reason to keep Mu Jiao'er around anymore; she should find a man who truly cares for her, shouldn't she?"
Misunderstandings? A tool for revenge?
The curiosity of the reporters surged within them, as if they were seeking a more favorable truth.
"Everyone, I've said what I needed to say, and I don't think there's any need to continue. My wife's health is fragile and not suited for this kind of occasion; please understand," Ye Zixun suddenly stood up. He took his beloved woman to the desk and pressed the main line button. "Show them out."
Before long, Secretary Sister came in, and the reporters saw that Secretary was rushing in to drive them away. Not wanting to be kicked out, they could only clutch their limited materials and leave Ye Zixun's office.
However, there would be future opportunities; they were sure they could find a chance to interview Ye Zixun more deeply.
"Ye Zixun, is it really okay for you to explain things like this to the media? Isn't it a bit hasty?" After they left, Lan Baobao asked with concern, "Will they follow us? What if they find out about everything?"
"You don't need to worry about that." Seeing Lan Baobao's anxious expression made Ye Zixun feel distressed.
He wrapped his arms around her waist and said, "Baby, don't worry. No one can harm you while I'm around. I will protect you and our child. Just rest assured."
Ye Zixun released Lan Baobao and looked at her slightly confused expression. He was about to reach out and pat her head when...
Lan Baobao saw him reaching out to get closer and instinctively took a step back, as if nothing had happened earlier. “Ye Zixun, between us... we are just the parents of two children. We haven’t restored our previous relationship!”
“What?” Ye Zixun looked at her in shock and said, “Lan Baobao, what do you mean now?”
But she glared at Ye Zixun with a look he was very familiar with, maintaining a safe distance.
“You should know very well that after I found out about this, it’s impossible for me to still have any feelings for you. I won’t let my unborn child be with you.”
“Do you want to sever ties with me?” Ye Zixun raised an eyebrow.
Although Lan Baobao didn’t answer, her expression clearly conveyed her thoughts. She could never be with someone as despicable as him, nor would she allow her child to call such a person grandfather.
The death of Mu Jiao'er would flash before Lan Baobao’s eyes the moment she closed them.
Her mind was filled with Mu Jiao'er’s words and her figure.
Mu Jiao'er’s final curse was indeed very effective.
No matter how much she loved Ye Zixun, her sense of shame and self-respect wouldn’t allow her to stay by his side any longer.
Lan Baobao could no longer face Ye Zixun.
