Xue Lu feels that today's trip is the most derelict in her career.

Leaving with Ye Lanyin, she didn't dare to look at Ye Lanyin's face, and even felt that it was superfluous to say anything sorry.

The dignified president's wife visited her subordinates in person, but she couldn't even enter the door of her subordinates' homes. If this spreads, what will Zhou Yixing think? What will the thousands of employees of Chuangwei think?

It's a joke and a shame.

"Manager Xue, you don't have to take today's matter to heart. Ye Lanyin said suddenly.

Xue Lu was slightly stunned, and she didn't want to comfort herself in turn because of the proprietress who wanted to, "Mrs. Zhou, I'm really embarrassed." ”

"It's not about you. Ye Lanyin smiled indifferently, "I have some things to deal with temporarily, so I won't talk to you more." The things in the group, please bother you a lot, and let me know if you have something. ”

Xue Lu nodded hurriedly and personally sent Ye Lanyin to the car.

After the car left Lishui City, Ye Lanyin instructed the driver to drive the car to Yunjing Manor in the north of the city.

In fact, the main reason why Ye Lanyin chose to leave so happily was that Han Shuang had just sent her a text message, hoping that she could come to Mrs. Zhou's private house immediately.

Instead of making a phone call, they opted for a more private text message, without giving a reason, but asking for it to arrive immediately.

Ye Lanyin thought to herself, Mrs. Zhou should have something very important to talk to her alone.

……

Cloudview Manor.

Before Ye Lanyin got out of the car, she had already seen Han Shuang waiting for her at the gate.

Such an atmosphere made Ye Lanyin's heart inexplicably stained with a hint of suppressed tension, and she turned to instruct the driver: "If Mr. calls from there, just say that I saw a new brand in Hengfu Plaza, and on a whim, I decided to go in and take a look." ”

"Yes, ma'am. ”

After getting out of the car, Ye Lanyin and Han Shuang walked towards each other, Han Shuang said: "Suddenly invited the young lady over, didn't delay the young lady anything, right?"

Ye Lanyin shook her head slightly.

The two were no longer polite, and Han Shuang made a "please" gesture and led Ye Lanyin into the villa.

Mrs. Zhou was still waiting for her in the old place where they had last met, in the flower room that was not too big or small.

What is different from last time is that most of the camellia in the flower room has been evacuated, and only some of the remaining ones are scattered, completely losing the previous romance of the sea of flowers.

"Mom. ”

Ye Lanyin called softly and stepped forward.

When she saw Mrs. Zhou's face, she couldn't help but be stunned.

After a few days, why did Mrs. Zhou feel a lot old and decadent for her, as if she had experienced some major setbacks and blows.

Ye Lanyin looked at Han Shuang suspiciously, and saw that Han Shuang shook her head helplessly, refusing to reveal anything.

"Ah Shuang, prepare some delicious snacks. Mrs. Zhou instructed, "I'll talk to Lan Yin first." ”

Han Shuang left.

Ye Lanyin sat opposite Mrs. Zhou, looked at Mrs. Zhou's face carefully, and frowned unconsciously, "Mom, are you not feeling well? ”

Mrs. Zhou smiled weakly, "Don't worry." I think about a lot of things these days, and I don't sleep well. ”

Ye Lanyin was skeptical of this, but she didn't continue to ask, just waiting for Mrs. Zhou's next words.

Mrs. Zhou was silent for a moment, and Ye Lanyin could see that her thoughts were sometimes far away and sometimes near. But what she was thinking, no one knew but herself.

"Lan Yin, have you been in Zhou's house for more than three years?" Mrs. Zhou suddenly sighed.

Ye Lanyin nodded.

Although she and Zhou Yixing received the certificate on Valentine's Day on February 14, the wedding was held on September 9, which means that it will last for a long time. And the pregnancy was found out in July.

After Zhou Yixing learned that she was pregnant, he was overjoyed and immediately began to prepare for the wedding.

"Lan Yin, mom said something you don't like, don't mind. Mrs. Zhou said, "Whether it's your family background or your ability, you really can't enter the door of the Zhou family." Back then, Yixing hid that his father and I got the certificate with you, but you should know that according to Yixing's father's temperament, it is not to mention that you are pregnant with the blood of the Zhou family, even if the child has landed, he will not take it seriously. But he also let you raise the baby with peace of mind, and forcibly confronted his father and let you hold a wedding. ”

Ye Lanyin is not completely ignorant of these.

However, listening to Mrs. Zhou's narration one by one, the feelings in her heart still beat her heart like waves.

Zhou Yixing has really done a lot for her.

"Mom, I know I'm not good enough. But after this experience, I will work hard and strive to become a good helper and a good wife. ”

Mrs. Zhou nodded with a pleased smile and put her hand on Ye Lanyin's shoulder, "I know you are a kind and good boy. What I am saying to you today is not to tell you from the standpoint of Yixing's mother, but from the standpoint of your mother-in-law. ”

Ye Lanyin's heart tightened suddenly, and she felt that Mrs. Zhou's next words might bring her a lot of tremors.

Sure enough.

Mrs. Zhou said: "Yixing protects you, and I don't let you know many things." But at this juncture, I have to tell you. Yixing's father has never approved your marriage, and he has always forced Yixing to divorce you and marry a rich daughter who is good for Chuangwei. Before, the reason why Yixing found a stand-in to protect Qi Yaru was actually to protect his father. ”

Ye Lanyin was frightened, she felt her back tighten, she couldn't stop shaking her head, and muttered: "They are father and son, how can they be so intrigued?"

Mrs. Zhou sneered, and seemed to have a lot of criticism of the word "father and son".

She knows very well that in Zhou Yuanshan's heart, there is no fetters and concerns of husband and wife, father and son, and there are only interests and power seeking.

But if Zhou Yuanshan still talks about the word "love", how can her leg be cripple......d?

Mrs. Zhou couldn't think about it anymore.

She gritted her teeth, forced herself to hurry up and be rational, then looked at Ye Lanyin, and said solemnly: "Last time in the Shocking Tang Mansion, the Qin Shu mentioned by Yixing's father will arrive at the Chuangwei headquarters the day after tomorrow." This person is the striker who was ordered to come and hollow out the power little by little. I want you to preside over affairs in place of Yixing, not only to stabilize the morale of the army, but more importantly, to help Yixing win people's hearts during this time, distinguish friends and foes, and prevent the group from completely falling into the hands of Yixing's father. ”

Ye Lanyin was stunned.

Before, Mrs. Zhou had said in the hospital that she wanted her to guard the country that Zhou Yixing had defeated. At that time, she only thought that she was talking about business competitors, or the Qi family with ill intentions.

How could she have thought that it was Master Zhou who Mrs. Zhou wanted her to fight!

"What's the matter, are you scared and flinched?" Mrs. Zhou looked at Ye Lanyin's eyes and said in a cold tone.

Ye Lanyin pursed her dry lips, her hands clenched into fists at some point, and the closed palms were full of cold sweat.

She looked down at her hands, and the first thing she saw was the glittering wedding ring.

This was the night she reconciled with Zhou Yixing, he took off the chain, took off the ring again, and put it back on her personally.

What a wedding ring means in marriage is self-evident.

Raising her head again, Ye Lanyin's eyes had a firmness, and she said, "What should I do?"

Mrs. Zhou finally breathed a sigh of relief and talked to Ye Lanyin for a while.

……

Coming out of the villa, only she knew how heavy Ye Lanyin's footsteps were.

She thought that after she entered the wealthy family, she had been striving for the wealthy world. But now it seems that what she did was just scratching her boots, and it didn't have any effect.

"It's hard at the beginning. Han Shuang said, "Young lady, don't worry too much. Many things will be easy to solve as long as they touch the door. ”

Ye Lanyin barely squeezed out a smile, and before she could say a few polite words, she heard the maid in front of her spread the word that Young Master Wen had arrived.

Wen Hua didn't expect to see Ye Lanyin here.

He naturally recalled the unpleasant encounter in the hospital that day, his face suddenly darkened, and he looked at Ye Lanyin's eyes with undisguised disgust and disdain.

Ye Lanyin didn't care, said goodbye to Han Shuang, and went to the yard, ready to get in the car and leave.

Wen Hua's heart was blocked, thinking that Chen Lichuan had been so difficult over the years, he couldn't help but chase him out with his temper.

"Haven't you thought about looking at Lichuan?" Wen Hua asked, "Aren't you curious about what Zhou Yixing is doing behind your back?"

At this moment, Ye Lanyin has not been able to fully digest the conversation with Mrs. Zhou, but for Chen Lichuan's everything, she now has to say a few words to Wen Hua.

"Your cousin and I are husband and wife. No matter how much Chen Lichuan and I fell in love before, we are over. Please don't say these things again and again to provoke our relationship as husband and wife, even if Yixing really does something, he is also my husband. ”

After speaking, Ye Lanyin didn't wait for Wen Hua to respond, and directly got in the car and ordered the driver to leave.

……

Back at the Surprise Tang Mansion, it was close to dusk.

When Ye Lanyin was changing her shoes in the hallway, Ding Dong ran out to greet her. But she didn't hold it in her arms as usual, but went upstairs to find Zhou Yixing.

There was no one in the bedroom, and there was no one in the study.

Ye Lanyin accidentally found that the door of Tangtang's room was not closed tightly, pushed it open and looked inside, and saw Zhou Yixing sitting alone in a wheelchair, surrounded by Tangtang's dolls.

At that moment, Ye Lanyin's heartache seemed to drown out her breathing.

After standing still for nearly a minute, she walked in, sat on the carpet wordlessly, and held Zhou Yixing's hand tightly.

It was also at this time that she found that Zhou Yixing's hand was injured, not only wrapped in gauze, but also a little blood seeping out of the gauze.

"How did you get it?" Ye Lanyin frowned.

Zhou Yixing withdrew his hand from Ye Lanyin's hand with an expressionless face, staring ahead with his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

Ye Lanyin saw that he looked indifferent again, her heart was stuffy and painful, and she sat silently at his feet.

For a long time, the husband and wife did not speak, just sat quietly.

They watched the light outside the window dim and cool down little by little, as if the law of change of things was also from prosperity to decline, and finally to calm.

The biggest desire in Ye Lanyin's heart is to get along with Zhou Yixing and grow old together.

She knows that no matter how passionate love is, it will eventually turn into family affection. She can't expect her and Zhou Yixing to be in love all their lives, but she knows that she can't accept the current way of getting along.

"You have something to hide from me. ”

When Ye Lanyin said this, it was in an affirmative tone.

"We've been together for five years. It's ridiculous to say, I can't understand you more and more. Many of your actions and words will make me think for a long time. Ye Lanyin said, hugging her knees in frustration, "Su Yueshan's matter, we all tacitly agreed not to mention it again." But you ask yourself, have you been hiding from me, thinking that you are protecting me, and are you doing the right thing? Do you know that you are the one who hurt me the most? From beginning to end, I care ...... everything."

"Chen Lichuan. Zhou Yixing suddenly spoke, interrupting Ye Lanyin's words, "He left you back then, not because of study, but because he had stomach cancer, and he was afraid that it would affect you." ”

Ye Lanyin was stunned and didn't speak, just buried her head deeper.

In fact, when she mentioned Chen Lichuan to Wen Hua for the first time, Ye Lanyin vaguely felt that the reason why Chen Lichuan left her might not be what she thought.

If you want to say that Ye Lanyin's heart is not moved, it is unless she is a piece of wood.

But afterwards, she also thought very clearly, even if Chen Lichuan really had a last resort, what she loves now is Zhou Yixing, and the past is in the past after all.

However, under Wen Hua's hints again and again, and even after meeting Chen Lichuan in the hospital, Zhou Yixing's attitude and reaction ...... These had to make Ye Lanyin wonder what role Zhou Yixing played in it.

"After we got married, it was I who gave Chen Lichuan a ban on him not to step into the imperial capital for half a step. Zhou Yixing continued, his voice sounding the same as usual, "He has mailed you a lot of love letters before, all of which I intercepted and destroyed. ”

Ye Lanyin pursed her lips, but still didn't speak.

She felt that these things would not be things that Zhou Yixing really had any scruples about, and there must be ......

"Chen Lichuan's mother, instigated by my lies, died in a car accident on the way back to the hospital. ”

Bang!

Ye Lanyin's body stiffened, and her back suddenly seemed to be crawling with dense ants, which were struggling to gnaw at her flesh and blood, making her feel so painful.

Between Zhou Yixing and Chen Lichuan, there is actually a life!

The driver and his wife got into an argument on the phone, and the driver accidentally crashed into an electric scooter across the road, and the car behind him didn't have time to respond, and hit the taxi again. Chen Lichuan's mother died on the spot. ”

After speaking, Zhou Yixing held the wheelchair's hand tightly and let go suddenly.

Until now, he didn't know why he had to admit that he had been vile and shameless.

is obviously determined to let Ye Lanyin only see him bright and upright for the rest of his life.

Still, he said it all.

This is probably because of the "Su Yueshan" she just mentioned. He was afraid that he would be selfish again, and that it would be her who would end up hurting.

He cared more about her than his disguise.

Ye Lanyin grabbed the wheelchair's deputy, stood up from the ground, and asked in a low voice, "Is there anything else?"

Zhou Yixing replied: "No." ”

Ye Lanyin really didn't know if she should be happy, glad that Zhou Yixing didn't keep making mistakes...... But if you think about Aunt Chen for a while, she still feels a chill down her spine and a pain in her heart.

What kind of person is her husband, her pillow person?

Ye Lanyin had no answer at all.

She didn't say a word more, left Tangtang's room in despair, closed the door, and didn't dare to face Zhou Yixing. And Zhou Yixing looked at the completely dark sky, and his heart was sad.

……

Morning.

Ye Lanyin was in the wine cellar and drank a bottle of red wine.

She was very confused in her heart, because of Mrs. Zhou's words today, and because of Zhou Yixing's words today. These true and false, grievances and grievances, are intertwined, forming a double test.

It's not just her who will be tested, but the husband and wife.

Ye Lanyin was really confused, and she didn't care about the time sooner or later, so she called Dong Ning.

"Don't get tired of your husband in the middle of the night, think of me?" Dong Ning's voice was very energetic, and he knew that he hadn't said it yet.

Ye Lanyin got up, went to the shelf to find new red wine, and said, "I can't figure out some things. ”

As soon as Dong Ning heard this, he knew that Ye Lanyin had really encountered something.

She closed her laptop and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ye Lanyin hid Mrs. Zhou's part and told Chen Lichuan about it.

After Dong Ning heard this, he was silent for a while, and said truthfully: "It's despicable enough." This is to break you up and Chen Lichuan behind your back. ”

Ye Lanyin sighed deeply, "I'm very panicked now, especially when I find that what I thought I understood was wrong. ”

"You don't know everything about him, that's normal. Dong Ning said, "Lan Yin, you grew up in a well-off family, you really can't understand life in those wealthy families." Don't say that I am an illegitimate daughter, I have to be calculated by those people in the Dong family, like Zhou Yixing, who is not only the only heir of Chuangwei, but also the only son of the Zhou family, what has he experienced, you can't think of it. ”

Ye Lanyin couldn't help but recall the words that Mrs. Zhou said to her today, which really opened her eyes, and also made her understand that in this world, flesh and blood are fratricidal, or the enemy will fight more cruelly and bloody.

And the root cause of this fight is because she and Zhou Yixing are in love.

"You just said that Zhou Yixing harmed Chen Lichuan's mother, and if you want to say that you hurt people, I think it's a bit exaggerated. His intention was just to tie you down, not to kill anyone. Chen Lichuan's mother is certainly pitiful, but it's not what Zhou Yixing wants to see, right?"

Ye Lanyin didn't know what to say, it seemed that after chatting with Dong Ning, her heart was even more confused.

Picking up the goblet, she tilted her head and drank the wine inside.

After being silent for a long time, Ye Lanyin finally said what was in her heart: "Ning Ning, I'm wondering if I really did something wrong? We forced ourselves together like this, not only for him, but also for me. ”

Dong Ning on the other side of the phone frowned.

From beginning to end, she was not optimistic about the marriage between Ye Lanyin and Zhou Yixing. Because she has also seen the darkness and squalor in the wealthy family. For the sake of money, relatives turn against each other like child's play.

Ye Lanyin's character can't survive at all.

But who would have thought that Zhou Yixing had been doing his best to protect Ye Lanyin under his wings? Let Ye Lanyin see a lot of things now, but it was just the mirror that Zhou Yixing had woven for her.

If one day, Zhou Yixing falls, Ye Lanyin will have nothing.

"Lan Yin, you're just tired. Dong Ning said, "But you also have to understand that this is the way you really begin to know Zhou Yixing." You say that you love him, and to what extent you love him, only you know in your heart. ”

Ye Lanyin was silent.

……

in the bedroom.

Ye Lanyin climbed into bed lightly.

She wanted to go to the guest room to rest, but after thinking about it, she came back anyway.

Her intuition told her that Zhou Yixing was faking sleep. But she didn't want to pierce it, but she couldn't, because if he was awake, she didn't know how to deal with herself.

Ye Lanyin lay down and sighed in her heart.

Give her some more time, and she'll figure it out.

……

Joy Clubhouse.

The wee hours of the morning are supposed to be dormant, but for Yuese, the excitement here is just the beginning.

Fu Jin is the behind-the-scenes boss of Yuese, in order to set up a home for his brothers. When necessary, Yuese will also be a good place for him to gather intelligence and build bridges.

He'd seen a lot of people here, but the one he saw today was really surprising to him.

"Mr. Fu has done a good job in black and white, and I admire it very much. Chen Lichuan said.

Fu Jin is still the same, gentle and calm, as if he is not afraid of the sky falling, "Lawyer Chen said and laughed, it is all a small business. ”

Chen Lichuan saw that Fu Jin didn't want to mention more business matters, and he didn't want to go around the bend with him again, so he said first: "I haven't been able to personally thank Mr. Fu for the matter of the Four Seasons Hotel. ”

Fu Jin's eyes froze, and an unknown meaning flashed in his eyes, "It's a matter of raising your hands." ”

"But I kept it in mind. Chen Lichuan immediately took over, "I came to Mr. Fu today because we have a common goal. If that's the case, why not join forces?"

In fact, after Fu Jin saw Chen Lichuan, he roughly understood his intention to come. Now that the words have been broken, let's talk about it and try how much Chen Lichuan knows.

"What is Lawyer Chen's opinion?" Fu Jin asked.

"I don't dare to take it. It's just that Zhou Yixing is now in a low period, and the slightest disturbance must cause him a certain amount of damage. ”

"How do you make a fuss?"

Fu Jin looked at Chen Lichuan, and there seemed to be a slight smile in his eyes, which made Chen Lichuan feel unhappy.

He was pondering how to achieve his goal, when he heard Fu Jin say again: "If you had admitted to me from the beginning that the Four Seasons Hotel was directed and acted by you and planned by yourself, maybe I would still be interested in cooperating with you." ”

Chen Lichuan was stunned, and there was a hidden ruthlessness in his expression.

Fu Jin disagreed, leisurely cocked Erlang's legs, took out a cigar from the drawer, and played with it in the palm of his hand, "Your plan is very clever." If it weren't for my presence, you might have scattered Zhou Yixing and Ye Lanyin. So, you hate me for being nosy, don't you?"

Chen Lichuan looked at Fu Jin and realized that he was really too underestimated.

How can it be a simple role for a person who not only saved people back then, but also knew how to hold those "cheating" photos in his hands in case of emergency?

"Mr. Fu, it is meaningless to discuss the past many times. Why don't we take a look at the present?" Chen Lichuan said, "Don't you want revenge?"

Fu Jin narrowed his eyes dangerously, and asked in a cold tone, "How much do you know about me?"
