  Bo Cixue looked at Yan Hua, who was afraid that her girl would be aggrieved and held her hand tightly, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. “Mom, I’m telling you now. You can’t make trouble for him!”


  Yan Hua glared at Bo Cixue. She had been pampered since she was young and could not suffer any grievances.

  Four years ago, she had secretly settled the procedures to go to M University and was out alone for four years. She felt like a piece of her heart had been cut away.

  Bo Yan often advised her to go out more when her children were grown up.

  But when Little Apple was young, Yan Hua had left her daughter because of her heart problems and the former felt that she owed it to her daughter and wanted to give her the best.

  She felt terrible even if her daughter suffered a little.

  Yan Hua pulled Bo Cixue into her arms. “You love to bury everything in your heart when you grow up. You know that Dad and Mom have your strong support behind you.”


  Bo Cixue leaned against Yan Hua’s shoulder. Since she was young, she had always felt that her mother’s hug was the warmest.

  It was the same now.

  “Mom, I’m grown up now. I just want to relieve some of Dad and your burden. You really don’t have to be sad for me. I’m quite good now. It’s normal to have difficulties in a relationship. Whose relationship will always be smooth?”


  Yan Hua patted Bo Cixue’s slender back. “I won’t interfere too much, but if the man betrays you, you must tell Mom.”


  “Okay.”


  …


  Bo Cixue had a dream that night.

  In her dream, Ye Yiren gave birth to a boy like a mini Ye Jie. He held her legs with tears in his eyes, begging her not to snatch his father away.

  Bo Cixue woke up from her dream.

  Opening her eyes, she looked at the moon outside and wiped the cold sweat on her forehead.

  She could not fall asleep after waking up.

  She took her phone from the bedside table and sent a WeChat message.

  “Is her child yours?”


  She only sobered up after sending it.

  Why did she send him that message?

  She hurriedly deleted it.

  She locked her phone and planned to get up to read for a while.

  Her WeChat suddenly rang.

  Bo Cixue opened WeChat with a tingling scalp.

  She saw that Ye Jie had sent a WeChat message.

  He replied with two words. “No.”


  It was already so late, but he was still awake.

  Even though she had withdrawn her message in seconds, he had actually seen it.

  Bo Cixue bit her lip and was about to reply when he sent another two more words. “Trust me.”


  The confusion and panic in Bo Cixue’s heart dissipated in an instant.

  She replied simply, “Oh.”


  Although it was just a few words, her tensed nerves had relaxed a lot.

  She looked at their dialog box. It showed that the other party was typing, but Bo Cixue waited for a while and received no more messages from him.

  She put down her phone.

  …


  Late at night.

  Ye Jie deleted the typed message and was about to type it again when his phone vibrated.

  It was Ah Zuo.

  After what happened with Ye Yiren that night, Ye Jie conducted an investigation.

  The most suspicious person was undoubtedly Mo Chuan.

  After the celebration party that night, he left the capital and returned to A Country.

  Ah Zuo had gone to A Country to look for Mo Chuan, but the latter clearly felt too guilty. After returning to the country, he did not return to the Mo family but hid himself.

  “Did you find Mo Chuan?”


  Ah Zuo reported, “Yes. I was following him on the highway, but his car seemed to have malfunctioned.”


  Ye Jie narrowed his dark eyes. “You must bring him to me.”


  “Understood.”


  …


  The next morning.

  Bo Cixue went downstairs for breakfast and accidentally saw the newspaper Bo Yan was holding.

  “Mo Chuan got into a car accident and we don’t know if he’s dead or alive.” Bo Cixue came up to Bo Yan. “Dad, is Mo Chuan the doctor sent by A Country to the capital for the vaccine research?”


  Bo Yan nodded. “It’s him.”


  Bo Cixue was shocked as she read the article on the newspaper.

  Mo Chuan had actually gotten into an accident and had fallen into the river with his car!

  …


  Bo Cixue asked Tang Wu out for dinner after work.

  She did not expect to meet Ye Jie and Ye Yiren at the restaurant she went to.

  Their seats in the corner were not eye-catching.

  Tang Wu pulled Bo Cixue to sit quietly in the booth behind them.

  Bo Cixue said softly, “It’s not good to eavesdrop on them, right?”


  Tang Wu glared at Bo Cixue. “The two of them came out to eat secretly. What are you afraid of? They should be the ones feeling guilty. You’re the legitimate one.”


  Bo Cixue pursed her lips and said nothing more.

  Ye Jie and Ye Yiren’s voices were not loud, but if one listened carefully, he could hear what they were saying.

  Ye Yiren said, “I’m pregnant. I’m sure you know about it.”


  Ye Jie said, “Do you still think that it was me that night?”


  “I was in your room. How could it not have been you? Now that I’m pregnant, my parents know about it too. They will come as soon as possible to discuss what happened between us!”


  “I hope you won’t regret it.”


  Ye Yiren was slightly agitated. “What will I regret? Ye Jie, you ruined me!”


  Compared to Ye Yiren’s agitation, Ye Jie was much calmer. He was still cold. “Did you know about Mo Chuan’s accident?”


  “Mo Chuan got into an accident?” Ye Yiren widened her eyes in disbelief.

  Ye Jie observed her, a cold smirk on his lips. “Ye Yiren, I didn’t expect you to become like this. Maybe it’s because I never knew you before.”


  Ye Yiren’s voice became sharp. “Ye Jie, what do you mean? I’m the one at a disadvantage and you’re saying that I’ve changed? Have I changed or have you changed? Didn’t you like Bo Cixue because she’s young and pretty? Isn’t it because her personality is very similar to the person who hurt you the most?”


  “Calm, easygoing, intelligent, and assertive. I only gained your favor because I imitated her. But after you realized that I’m not like that, you started to ignore me.”


  “I thought that as long as I stayed away from you and didn’t bother you, I would leave a deep impression on you. But I forgot that you wouldn’t like any woman anymore.”


  “Even if you like it, she would just be treated like a copy.”


  “No one can become her. She’s unique and also the one who has your heart! You can’t have normal relationships with women because of her…”


  Before Ye Yiren could finish, she was interrupted by the man’s dark and cold voice. “Are you done?”


  Ye Yiren’s red eyes were filled with tears and her hands on the dining table clenched into fists. “If she wasn’t dead, you wouldn’t look at other women, including Bo Cixue.”


  When Bo Cixue and Tang Wu sat behind them, Ye Yiren had already seen them from her angle. She said these words not only for Ye Jie, but also for Bo Cixue.

  “Ye Yiren, you will regret what you’ve done sooner or later!” Ye Jie stood up with a cold expression and left coldly.
