He suddenly felt uncomfortable inside and, upon leaving the room, didn’t go anywhere in particular but simply took out a cigarette to light up before heading down to his car.
Meanwhile, Ye Ning was still unaware that some of her actions had been exposed to someone’s watchful eyes. After she finished speaking, everyone in the meeting room stared at her, and she moved her burning hand slightly, finally beginning to come back to her senses.
What had happened to her?
Why had she suddenly lost control? Was it because she was too angry?
She swallowed hard, looked around, and finally, slowly, released the hand that had been holding him captive: "If you’re innocent, then you had no need to kill her. Your desire to kill her proves you have a guilty conscience."
Ou Yuze finally reacted. Hearing her words, he reached out to grab her, intending to strangle her in his humiliation.
At the critical moment, the old master, who had already seen the whole incident unfold, finally spoke up: "Stop!"
As the words fell, the man in front of Ye Ning, whose eyes were already filled with malice, froze as if he was struck by a paralyzing point and dared not move anymore.
"It seems I was too lenient with you. I thought giving you a chance would make you better yourself, but instead, you came here and caused more trouble, even bringing the company to the brink of collapse. What use is there for someone like you in this world? Take him away!"
"No, Grandfather, I was wrong, I know my mistake, Grandfather, I won’t do it again, Grandfather..."
With a hysterical wail, the young master of the Ou Family, who had dominated the company for years, was dragged away like a dead dog.
And Ou Muyuan, in the face of this scenario, had no solution whatsoever.
With Ou Yuze taken away, the meeting room fell silent. Following the old master’s wishes, since Yang Xueshan was not dead, she was to be thrown into jail for the police to arrest and punish her according to standard procedures.
And in this, she resembled the Ye Ning of years past, except that Ye Ning had been framed, whereas she had ensnared herself.
Seeing the paramedics from the hospital arrive, Ye Ning stepped aside to let them place the woman on the stretcher, ready to leave.
However, just as she was about to leave, the woman on the stretcher suddenly called out to her retreating figure: "Ye Ning, are you satisfied with this outcome now?"
As the words landed, Ye Ning, who was about to step out the door, froze in place!
Was she calling her by her real name? Then she...
"I know you are Ye Ning. Even though your appearance and name have changed, I know it’s you. Your aura, your methods, your knowledge of jade, these are things only she would have. There’s no need to deny it."
Seeing her silent, the woman on the stretcher added that.
Ye Ning stood there for a good while and finally turned her head, her gaze cold as she looked at the woman: "I don’t know what you’re talking about. You’d better go to the hospital, or you won’t even know if you’re dead."
Having said this, she intended to leave.
Seeing this, Yang Xueshan became anxious: "No need to deny it. I won’t tell anyone about this. Things have come to this point, speaking out won’t benefit me at all. I don’t need to bother."
