Yun Yiyi, naturally, was blissfully unaware that Uncle Zhao had entered their bedroom. After breakfast, she entered Fei Mo’s Rolls-Royce Phantom. As the maid had said, Ah Qing was her driver.

It was silent in the car so Yun Yiyi spoke up first. “Ah Qing, does President Fei usually leave for work so early in the morning?”

“Yes,” Ah Qing replied.

“I see…”

Once Yun Yiyi initiated the conversation, Ah Qing turned into a chatterbox immediately. “Young madam, are you comfortable staying in Wan Mei Villa?”

Yun Yiyi replied, “I’m still getting used to it.” After all, she had only spent one night there. There were still many things she needed to familiarize herself with.

Ah Qing continued to say, “Young madam, in fact, young master only looks cold on the outside. He’s actually a warm person.”

Yun Yiyi agreed with Ah Qing’s words. “I know.”

Ah Qing fell silent for a moment. He wanted to tell her not to bring his young master to eat spicy hotpot in the future. However, he held his tongue when he remembered Uncle Zhao’s words.

“Ah Qing…”

“Yes.”

“Send me to Cafe Florian. My car’s parked there. I need to use the car today so I’ll drive myself to the office.”

Ah Qing: “Yes, young madam. However, since young master has instructed me to send you to the office, I’ll follow after your car from behind.”

“…” Yun Yiyi was stunned. However, she knew that Ah Qing was only following Fei Mo’s orders. There was no point in making things difficult for him. “Alright.”

Yun Yiyi drove her silver Chevrolet to Hua Corporation. Through the rearview mirror, she could clearly see Ah Qing following her closely in the eye-catching Rolls-Royce Phantom. She thought to herself that Ah Qing was a nice person.

When she arrived at Hua Corporation, she drove the car into the underground car park. From the rearview mirror, she could see that Ah Qing had already turned around and left. It seemed that he had gone to report to Fei Mo.

She felt a little uneasy. If only she had remembered the box of documents yesterday, she would not need to return again and face another awkward farewell.

“Senior Editor Yun!” Qiao Qiao was clearly surprised when she saw Yun Yiyi.

“Hi…” Yun Yiyi greeted Qiao Qiao with a smile.

Qiao Qiao who was quite observant saw Yun Yiyi’s dress and said, “Wow, you’re wearing a dress from a famous brand.”

Yun Yiyi pursed her lips and said teasingly, “You make it sound as though I can’t wear these dresses from famous brands…”

“Ah… No, no, no, that’s not what I meant,” Qiao Qiao hurriedly said, embarrassed.

When her colleagues saw her, they greeted her warmly, which made her feel even worse.

“Still no news from the chief editor?” Yun Yiyi asked Ya Qing.

Ya Qing looked at Yun Yiyi apologetically. “I still can’t get in touch with him. I’ve sent him an email as well. There’s no response from him at all…”

“Well, if that’s the case…” Yun Yiyi felt dejected. It seemed like she could only give up despite how unwilling and reluctant she felt. It was not that she could not let go of her position as senior editor in Hua Corporation, it was just that after spending so many years here, she had a sense of belonging to this place.

Ya Qing saw the sadness in Yun Yiyi’s eyes before she turned around and walked away.

Yun Yiyi stood in front of her office for a long time before she finally inhaled deeply and walked away. A bitter smile could be seen on her face as she thought to herself, ‘Forget it. It doesn’t matter what reason Ye Haoxun used to fire me, I have no right to stop him anyway.’

She picked up her box of documents that had been put to the side and was about to leave when she turned around again. She placed the box on the floor and strode into her office. She picked up the white dress that was sent to her yesterday. A faint smile could be seen on her face when she looked at the dress. Her terrible mood was washed away by a flood of warm feelings at this moment. This was a gift from Fei Mo. She did not want to leave it here for others to take it,

After she picked up the box of documents again, she bade farewell to her colleagues again.

Just as she was about to leave, Qiao Qiao approached her with a potted golden shrimp plant.

Yun Yiyi’s eyes lit up immediately. Before she went on her business trip she had asked Qiao Qiao to look after the potted golden shrimp plant for her. Due to the incident with Gu Jingyan, she had completely forgotten about it.

“Yiyi, don’t forget your potted plant. I took good care of it for you!”

Yun Yiyi put the potted plant in her box and thanked Qiao Qiao.

…

After she entered her car, she felt her mood improve when she looked at the golden shrimp plant. When her eyes fell in the white dress, she thought to herself with a slight smile, ‘Indeed. He’s cold on the outside but warm on the inside.’

After she took her mobile phone out of her bag, she discovered it had run out of battery. She quickly took out the charger to charge it.

When it finally turned on, her expression darkened when she saw the notifications on her phone.

There were 200 missed calls from her mother, Qiao Xi.

30 missed calls from her best friend, Zhang Xue’er.

40 missed calls from her brother, Yunqiao.

100 missed calls from her brother’s girlfriend, Song Zhuang.

10 missed calls from Gu Jingyan.

She frowned. Why did Gu Jingyan call her? A hint of coldness flashed in her eyes. Was he going to apologize so soon? Impossible. Based on the 200 missed calls by her mother, it was highly likely that Gu Jingyan had chased her mother out of the villa.

With so many missed calls, it was no wonder her mobile phone ran out of battery. Her best friend, Zhang Xue’er, was probably worried about her. However, the calls from her mother, her brother, and his girlfriend… She knew they were probably trying to find out what happened since Gu Jingyan had most likely evicted her mother from the villa.

The atmosphere in the car was stifling, and it was so deathly quiet that only the sound of breathing could be heard. She felt dejected and frustrated.

When her phone suddenly rang, she almost threw it in shock. When she looked down, she saw her mother’s name flashing on the screen. It seemed like her mother had been holding the phone the entire time and was just calling her relentlessly.

She did not feel like answering her mother’s call. However, she knew there were certain things or people that could not be avoided; this was especially true for family members. Sooner or later, she would have to meet them to make things clear to them. Sooner or later, they would have to give her an explanation.

In the end, she inhaled deeply before pressing the answer button.

“Yun Yiyi, you’re finally willing to answer the phone!” Her mother screamed from the other end of the line.

Yun Yiyi frowned slightly. She asked in a low voice, “What’s the matter?”

On the other end of the phone, Qiao Xi’s exasperated voice sounded. “What’s the matter? You’re asking me what’s the matter?”

Yun Yiyi calmly replied, “Yes, if nothing’s the matter, I’ll hang up. I’m busy.”

Qiao Xi said furiously, “Busy? Stop pretending! You know what you’ve done. Come home. Now!”

Yun Yiyi said, “I’m not free for the time being.” She planned to see Xue’er, her best friend, before going home.

Qiao Xi said, “I don’t care if you’re free or not. Even if you can’t walk, you have to crawl home!”

A hint of bitterness and sorrow could be seen in Yun Yiyi’s eyes when she recalled the conversation she overheard. So was this what family was like? Her mother did not ask if she was well or why she got a divorce. Her mother only wanted to know why they suddenly lost their wealth.

In the end, her mother was still her family so she replied, “Got it. I’ll be back in a while.”

Qiao Xi hung up immediately.

Yun Yiyi held her head; it was throbbing.

After a while, she called Zhang Xue’er, her best friend.

“Xue’er.”

“Foolish girl, you finally switched your phone on. Do you know how worried I was?!”

Yun Yiyi tried her best to sound calm. “I’m sorry.”

“Did something happen to you? You don’t sound good…”

Yun Yiyi said, “It’s nothing. By the way, are you home?”

Zhang Xue’er replied, “I’m at work. Where are you? I’ll ask for the day off to meet you.”

“There’s no need for that.” Yun Yiyi rejected Xue’er’s good intentions. “I have to go home now. Let’s meet later.”

Zhang Xue’er asked skeptically, “Go home? Which home?”

Yun Yiyi replied, “To… to my mother’s house. The old house my family used to live in.”

“So soon? That Gu Jingyan is really something. He chased your mother away so quickly,” Zhang Xue’er said angrily.

“If he was a good person, I wouldn’t have gotten a divorce,” Yun Yiyi replied indifferently.

“Yiyi, I’m going to say something that might sound unpleasant. Your mother’s too fierce, and I’m afraid you won’t be able to deal with her. Wait for me. I’ll accompany you home. Otherwise, something bad is definitely going to happen.”
