“You’re just a shameless abandoned wife. You’ve already given birth to an illegitimate child and even tricked him into becoming your child’s father. He Xiyan, how could you be so shameless?”
Ye Shiyu looked disdainfully at her so-called sister-in-law. Since she had been spoiled since she was young by her parents, she was not afraid of anyone and did not hold back from scolding anybody. She would only occasionally pretend to be a refined socialite while she was out but privately, her character was like her mother’s and her words were vicious and cruel.
He Xiyan took a few steps backward and frowned. Her heart clenched but she did not respond since she did not want to get into a fight with this girl.
All she wanted to do was to leave this place. She didn’t want to stay here any longer.
She turned around and chose to walk straight ahead.
However, Ye Shiyu caught up to her and gave her a shove.
“Why aren’t you speaking? Do you think I’ll let this pass if you don’t admit it?”
He Xiyan was caught unaware by the sudden shove and stumbled. Then, she lost her balance and fell onto the floor.
Her face was pale as though she was afraid of something and she placed her hands over her belly. She looked at Ye Shiyu, her eyes full of rage and hatred.
“Get lost!” She suddenly growled. Her face turned from white to red and her eyes also turned bloodshot.
Ye Shiyu scoffed.
“So you finally reveal your true self,” she smirked and looked contemptuously at He Xiyan. “Tell me, who is the father of your child? Don’t try to say that the child is my brother’s; we have proof that your son is not related to the Ye family at all. Don’t feel aggrieved because I hit you earlier, I’m only trying to teach the woman who trapped my brother into marriage a lesson on behalf of the Ye family.”
Ye Shiyu looked down at He Xiyan, a disdainful smile on her lips. She would not call a woman like her ‘sister-in-law’. She was not worthy.
He Xiyan bit her lips tightly and tried her best to control her emotions. She felt that as she grew more agitated, her stomach started to hurt.
“Get lost!” She exploded and her face turned pale. She was not afraid of this woman but since she was pregnant, she couldn’t fight or argue with anyone for fear losing her child.
Ye Shiyu scoffed and the corners of her lips turned upward. She walked toward He Xiyan and glared at her contemptuously.

At the same time, in another resting room, Ye Hao’s aunt was trying to convince him to do something.
He stuck his hands into his pockets and his thick eyebrows were knotted into a frown as he kept glancing toward the door, looking very fed up.
He waved his hand and finally stopped Ye Helian’s nonsensical words.
“That’s enough, Second Aunt. There’s no need for you to say anymore. She may go to the Human Resources department for an interview on the 8th day of the Lunar New Year. As for what she would eventually be hired as, it would depend on her own abilities,” Ye Hao glanced coldly at his second aunt as well as the cousin who he didn’t know the name of.
Ye Kexin’s face darkened the moment she heard that she would need to go for an interview.
“Cousin…” She said sweetly as she pouted, looking very pitiful like a girl who had been bullied.
Unfortunately, the man in front of her was immune to such tricks and would not take pity on women.
“What’s wrong? You’ve studied so hard, so are you saying that you don’t even have the ability to interview for a role? Since you can’t be bothered to go for an interview, then you should intern at a small company. We won’t hire parasites like yourself who won’t be able to do anything,” Ye Hao said harshly.
He immediately turned to leave, his impatience written all over his face. He especially hated people who tried to get a job based on connections.
Ye Helian hastily tugged at his arm, afraid that he would leave just like that.
“Hao’er, your cousin only wants to be your assistant to help share your burden.”
