Su Hongxing hadn’t expected this reason; she stood frozen, recalling the day she met Lin Zhi.

Lin Zhi appeared quite young, with hardly any wrinkles on her face, good looks, and an outstanding demeanor.

That being so, Ye Zheng must be quite young too, probably not even forty.

And Lin Zhi, maybe around fifty? It really didn’t show; a woman around fifty, so well-maintained, she looked almost like she was in her thirties.

“Why don’t we go to Jinxiu Restaurant for dinner tonight, I’d like to meet the legendary Ye Da.” Su Hongxing was bubbling with enthusiasm as she followed behind Ye Qilan.

Ye Qilan stopped in his tracks, turning back to glance at Su Hongxing, “Are you interested in my elder brother?”

Su Hongxing failed to catch the hint of jealousy in Ye Qilan’s tone; she nodded, “Yes, I’ve met you, Ye Shiqing, and Ye Xiandong, all good-looking. I’ve yet to see what Ye Zheng looks like, and I’m quite curious about him; he even fell in love with a woman ten years his senior and had a fallout with the Ye Family over her.”

Ye Qilan stayed silent, his expression serious, “Let’s not dine there anymore, my elder brother may not want to see us.”

“Why?” Su Hongxing suddenly recalled Ye Qilan mentioning that Ye Zheng was taboo in the Ye Family.

Since it was taboo, something unpleasant must have happened.

“Forget it, let’s not see him then.” Su Hongxing thought it better to avoid trouble. Even though she was filled with curiosity about Ye Zheng, she didn’t want to stir up any issues.

“If you run into Lin Zhi again, better keep your distance; my elder brother cares a lot about her,” Ye Qilan added.

“Alright, I get it. Next time I see Lin Zhi, I’ll pretend not to see her, is that okay?” Su Hongxing shook Ye Qilan’s arm playfully.

Ye Qilan saw her frequent small gestures, a hint of amusement flashed through his eyes.

Perhaps this woman hadn’t realized it herself, but she was becoming increasingly close to him. Initially never approaching him voluntarily, lately, she had started to act coquettishly towards him, even hugging and kissing him on her own initiative.

This was a good sign, yet it also made him somewhat apprehensive. Seeing her belly grow day by day, and though the prenatal checkups showed no issues, he still couldn’t set his mind at ease.

Because they did not want to run into Ye Zheng, Ye Qilan and Su Hongxing went to another decent Chinese restaurant instead. They didn’t expect to encounter Ye Shiqing there.

Ye Shiqing seemed to have drunk too much, staggering as Wen Beibei supported him.

Su Hongxing fixed her gaze, and Ye Qilan followed her line of sight, “Lately, my second brother hasn’t been in a good mood.”

Qiao Qiao hadn’t quit her job, but her return to Ye Xiandong’s side had set tongues wagging throughout the city. Ye Shiqing, of course, couldn’t have missed those rumors; everyone said that women like Qiao Qiao were rare, and she hadn’t left Ye Xiandong when he was at his lowest.

They also heard that Ye Xiandong was working hard at rehab, hoping to stand again someday.

How could Ye Shiqing feel comfortable upon hearing such news?

“By the way, has the investigation into Ye Xiandong’s car accident been completed?” Su Hongxing suddenly asked.

She thought it unlikely to be a mere accident, especially since it happened in the early morning when traffic was light, and there was no rush; how could Ye Xiandong be so unlucky?

“The driver responsible was caught; they said it was drunk driving, an accidental hit on the third brother’s car. I checked the surveillance footage later, and it indeed didn’t seem intentional.”
