Ye Yuning’s side.

She had just started shopping at the mall when she ran into her enemies, Yang Lihui and Qi Mulan, coming out of a store with gleeful expressions.

The two of them saw her too, and Qi Mulan instinctively tried to leave.

But Yang Lihui didn’t want to go, and walked gracefully towards Ye Yuning: "Oh, isn’t this Aye’s ex-wife?"

As she said this, she subconsciously glanced at Xiao Shuo next to Ye Yuning!

"What’s this? Even after splitting with Aye, you’re still hanging out with his nephew? Miss Ye, there are plenty of golden cakes in the world, you really don’t need to stick to this piece from the Xiao Family, do you?"

"What’s this old woman saying, watch your mouth!"

Before Ye Yuning could speak, Xiao Shuo interjected angrily.

Ye Yuning: "..."

This child, he’s still not mature! Why is he so impulsive?

However, that "old woman" from Xiao Shuo was quite refreshing.

After all, Xiao Shuo never was a gentleman, nor someone with good manners.

Originally, Yang Lihui intended to target her, but now she even dragged Xiao Shuo into it right in front of him!

And Xiao Shuo hated it the most when people talked about his relationship with her, especially regarding him and his Seventh Uncle!

Now Yang Lihui is just crashing into it, really bold.

Yang Lihui’s face turned completely dark after Xiao Shuo called her an old woman.

"Xiao Shuo, you’re Aye’s nephew, I have some measure of..."

"Some measure of what? Who the hell needs your measure of anything?" Xiao Shuo interrupted fiercely before Yang Lihui could finish.

He already hated when people mentioned his Seventh Uncle in front of him, and now Yang Lihui kept bringing it up.

Yang Lihui’s face darkened further!

Xiao Shuo: "If your stepdaughter could marry my Seventh Uncle, even if she has real abilities, that’s your business as a stepmother, the entire Upper City knows how you’ve treated people over the years, so why don’t you stop flaunting here!"

"You..."

Xiao Shuo: "Leave or not, I have even worse things to say!"

He interrupted Yang Lihui again, with a distinctly threatening tone. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Yang Lihui’s face turned from green to white with anger, she glared at Ye Yuning and said, "Even though Aye didn’t end up going to the party with Mulan last night, he personally chose the dress Mulan wore at the party."

Unable to deal with Xiao Shuo, Yang Lihui once again shifted her aim at Ye Yuning.

Xiao Shuo got even angrier!

Isn’t this old woman looking for trouble, what’s she trying to provoke here?

Just as he was about to speak again, Ye Yuning stepped forward: "Ms. Yang, you don’t need to provoke me here."

Then she looked at Qi Mulan: "I sincerely wish you well in marrying Xiao Linye, but there’s one thing I need to remind you of."

"What is it?"

Yang Lihui scoffed, her tone full of disdain.

Ye Yuning: "Although my marriage with Xiao Linye is over and there’s no possibility in the future, even if he marries Qi Mulan, we can’t completely sever ties, he will have to care for me for life!"

Disgusting, right?

Then let’s be disgusted together...

Even though this wasn’t her usual style, watching Yang Lihui and Qi Mulan being disgusted made Ye Yuning not want to let them feel comfortable.

Sure enough, at her words, Yang Lihui and Qi Mulan’s faces changed!

Xiao Shuo’s face changed too.

"What do you mean?" Yang Lihui gritted her teeth.

Now, the most uncomfortable one was Qi Mulan.

What does it mean to care for her for life, if she really marries Xiao Linye, will she be stuck between them forever?

Does Ye Yuning still want to be the third wheel?

Xiao Shuo was also shocked and confused, completely not understanding what Ye Yuning meant.

Ye Yuning chuckled coldly: "What do I mean? I mean, my own brother died because of Xiao Linye, even without the marriage, there’s a life involved, that’s what he owes my brother, and he needs to repay it to me!"

Word by word, Ye Yuning reminded them how solid their connection with Xiao Linye was.

Qi Mulan pursed her lips tightly, staring at her.

That look, as if she wanted to swallow her whole...

Ye Yuning continued to chuckle coldly: "All this time I haven’t bothered to compete with you."

"But do you believe, given this relationship, that if I make a single call, no matter when or where, even if he’s lying beside Qi Mulan, he’d have to get up and fly to my side?"

Exciting, isn’t it? This is exciting enough, right?

Yang Lihui and Qi Mulan were breathing heavily.

Yang Lihui instantly spat: "You, you shameless..."

"I’m the sister of your son-in-law’s benefactor, show me some respect, otherwise, I have plenty of ways and means to mess with you later."

Qi Mulan: "..."

Yang Lihui: "..."

The faces of both stiffened, the venomous retorts they had on the tip of their tongues had to be swallowed forcefully!

They didn’t expect that Ye Yuning and Xiao Linye shared such a connection.

If this was true, even if she stayed by Xiao Linye’s side all her life, Xiao Linye couldn’t utter a word of complaint!

"Do you think you can gain anything good from this, Aye’s heart isn’t with you, what’s the use of him being by your side?"

"No use at all! But with him by my side, doesn’t it make you uncomfortable?"

Who can’t stir the pot?

Now, isn’t it enough to make you uneasy?

Qi Mulan was truly distressed, she was extremely disgusted by Ye Yuning’s face using favors to get what she wanted!

"Does Uncle Xiao know?"

"Why don’t you ask him?" Ye Yuning replied calmly, with no trace of emotion in her tone.

Qi Mulan’s face sank once more.

Internally she cursed bitterly: that bitch Ye Yuning!
