Chapter 489: Chapter 489: Mind Your Own Man

Ye Ningwan thought that after she mocked the so-called top socialite from Hong Kong at the banquet, she would have some self-awareness.

But unexpectedly, not only did that woman not back down at all, she even actively mentioned Zhan Hanjue in an interview, expressing her admiration for him.

The media naturally loves to speculate.

Because of Wanyu’s words, the media was full of speculation about her relationship with Zhan Hanjue.

Wanyu’s response was even more ambiguous, telling the media that she greatly admired a man like Zhan Hanjue. Currently, they are just friends, and she asked everyone not to overthink it. As for the future, only time can tell.

"Listen, what does she mean by this?" Wu Taotao turned off the TV, angrily slapping the table.

Ye Ningwan also frowned slightly upon hearing this response, showing a hint of displeasure.

However, she wasn’t as agitated as Wu Taotao.

Seeing her so agitated, she instead comforted her, saying, "Don’t get angry, be careful not to harm your health. Come, drink some chrysanthemum tea to soothe your liver and eyes."

"How can you still be in the mood to drink tea when she’s practically knocking on your door, and you’re just swallowing your anger, taking her slap in the face?" Wu Taotao was very dissatisfied and didn’t understand Ye Ningwan’s calm demeanor.

Ye Ningwan asked, "So what do you think I should do?"

"Of course, fight back," Wu Taotao said. "Go directly to her and tell her to put away her little schemes and stop thinking of crooked ideas. If she dares to harbor any illusions about Zhan Hanjue, watch out, you won’t be polite to her."

"Taotao, let me ask you, what do you think about Ye Shao entering the entertainment industry?" Ye Ningwan asked.

Wu Taotao frowned, "We’re talking about your issue, why suddenly switch to Ye Shao? Of course, I fully support it, otherwise, I wouldn’t let him be an actor. Speaking of which, their movie is almost finished filming, and I have to attend the celebration when it’s done. It’s his first movie, and I must take a picture for a keepsake. But back to the point, let’s talk about your matter."

"After Ye Shao’s debut, with his acting and looks, he will surely be liked and admired by many women. By then, there will definitely be many female fans calling him ’husband.’ I ask you, will you be jealous, get angry, or want to tear apart those female fans who covet Ye Shao?" Ye Ningwan asked again.

Wu Taotao said, "Of course not, I... Ningning, are you reminding me that Ye Shao will have many female fans admiring him in the future, and I’ll face a similar situation as you? Am I supposed to tear apart those female fans one by one?"

Wu Taotao finally got the point.

Ye Ningwan smiled and said, "Yes, that’s what I mean. What do you think then?"

"Our situations are different," Wu Taotao said. "Those are just female fans; they won’t intrude into Ye Shao’s life. Besides, Ye Shao doesn’t like them, so how can it be the same?"

"It’s as if Zhan Hanjue likes that Wanyu. He doesn’t like her either, right? So, there’s no difference. If Zhan Hanjue doesn’t like her, why should I waste time tearing each other apart with that woman? If Zhan Hanjue likes her, then I have even more reason not to waste words with her; I’d directly tear Zhan Hanjue apart. In such matters, the outcome depends on the man; why should women make it hard for each other?" Ye Ningwan argued vigorously.

Wu Taotao realized she couldn’t persuade her and could only shake her head and sigh.

As she left, she said angrily, "Just wait! If you don’t take it seriously, you’ll eventually get bullied by that woman. But no worries, when she does bully you, give me a call, and I’ll help you tear her apart."

"Hurry up and go! I’ll handle my own matters; you should take care of yourself and Ye Shao." Ye Ningwan smiled as she saw her out.

After Wu Taotao left, Ye Ningwan watered the herbs at home and suddenly remembered she hadn’t visited Grandma today, so she went to sit in Old Mrs. Zhan’s courtyard.

Unexpectedly, He Qingping was also there.

Previously, she frequently tried to approach and please Zhan Hanjue by cooking his favorite dishes and wearing clothes he used to like seeing her in.

However, she was repeatedly criticized by Zhan Hanjue’s cold attitude, which made her abandon such foolish attempts.

Now, she focused more on taking care of Old Mrs. Zhan, often chatting with her.

Actually, as long as she behaved herself, Ye Ningwan had no intention of making things difficult for her.

After all, she is Zhan Hanjue’s birth mother. The previous grudges between the elders are not for outsiders to judge.

As long as she doesn’t endanger her and Zhan Hanjue’s interests, there’s no need for any difficulty.

"How is Grandma’s health?"

Ye Ningwan checked Old Mrs. Zhan’s pulse and prepared some prescriptions for her, handing them to Mrs. Chen. As she was leaving, He Qingping came out to ask.

Ye Ningwan didn’t hide it from her and shook her head, saying, "Not very good. I’ll ask Jue to come home often to spend more time with Grandma. Spending more time with her is the least we can do to show filial piety."

He Qingping lowered her eyes, letting out a light sigh.

But soon she said, "I suddenly remembered there’s something I’d like to ask you for. I wonder if you would agree."

"First, tell me what it is so I can consider whether to agree or not. If it’s something difficult for me, I may not agree," Ye Ningwan stated upfront. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

He Qingping’s face stiffened, and she gave a wry smile, "You’re direct. I thought you’d say you’ll do your best no matter what."

"Well, you overestimate me. I’m not that virtuous, to agree to difficult things and put myself in a bind. Besides, our relationship isn’t that good, is it?"

He Qingping: "..."

"Indeed, but it’s nothing significant; it won’t trouble you much. I have an old acquaintance visiting Jiangcheng, and I’d like to invite her for a meal. Could I invite her to come to the house?" He Qingping said.

Ye Ningwan raised an eyebrow, "Does she have to come to the house? If you want to treat her to a meal, I can arrange a private room at a hotel. They offer various dishes, offering more hospitality and fulfilling your duty as a host. If that’s not enough, I could arrange a day of sightseeing in Jiangcheng with a tour guide for you, which is better than being stuck at home."

He Qingping replied, "That would trouble you too much. There’s no need for such complications. She’s coming just to see how I’m doing; coming to the house for a meal and seeing that I’m well is sufficient. So there’s no need for anything elaborate. I dare not make decisions like that on my own, as this is your and Hanjue’s home, and you’re the lady of the house, so of course, I need your approval first."

With things said to this extent, Ye Ningwan couldn’t refuse anymore.

She nodded in agreement, "Alright, you make the arrangements. If you need me to stay out of the way, I can be out of the house and not disturb you."
