“No, I’m just trying to nourish my body.”

Qiao Yina instantly understood what she meant. “Can I ask you a question?”

“What is it?”

“Do you still resent Xiaotian?”

“Not anymore. Resenting him will only remind me of him frequently. I no longer want to be reminded of him from now on. Hence, I won’t waste any more time and energy on him,” Mo Li said composedly. Qiao Yina felt that she had meant every word she said.

On the way home from Mo Li’s place, Qiao Yina thought to herself, Women who have given up on a man completely will probably behave like Mo Li.

She could talk about someone who used to be her closest kin with a straight face.

She returned to the Ye family mansion and only went to bed in the wee hours of the night. Ye Xiaotian woke up and asked, “Where did you go?”

“To deliver something.”

“To whom?”

“Your ex-wife.”

Ye Xiaotian sobered up and asked, “What did you deliver to her?”

“The things she had left behind.”

“Who told you to do that?”

Staring at him, Qiao Yina said, “I wanted to do it. I had a chat with her when I was there, and she told me that she is about to get married soon. She has also begun taking some traditional chinese medicine to nourish her body. It seems she’s planning to conceive in the near future.”

Ye Xiaotian had dreaded hearing those news.

Ye Xiaotian knew that it was near impossible for her to get pregnant.

Qiao Yina did not say anything else after seeing that he was refusing to speak.

Ever since they got married, she had also gotten used to him being nonchalant and slipshod with his answers.

“I’m going to the hospital to visit Mother. Would you like to come along?” she asked.

“I’ll go in the evening instead.”

“Alright.”

At this point, Mrs. Ye had turned pale and ghastly because of the tough battle she’s been having with her illness.

She looked like she had aged ten years with her angsty temper.

Qiao Yina brought her some porridge, yet she was not grateful for it at all. “It’s the same old porridge every single day. I’m getting so sick of it.”

Qiao Yina detested her mother-in-law as well.

“It’s better for you to consume more whole grains now. They’re good for your health,” Qiao Yina said while removing the lid of the lunchbox and placing a spoon inside.

She allowed the piping-hot porridge to cool on the table before feeding it to Mrs. Ye.

After some consideration, she said, “Mother, I met Ms. Mo today.”

“Which Ms. Mo?”

“Mo Li.”

“Oh? Where did you meet her?” Mrs. Ye asked indifferently.

“Her home.”

“What were you doing at her home?”

“There were still some of her belongings at home so I decided to bring them to her. She’s about to get married soon and she’s nursing her health in preparation for a baby.”

Mrs. Ye humphed and remarked, “Can she even still conceive?”

“She probably still can.”

“She even showed up at Xiaotian’s and your wedding together with her boyfriend. I could tell with one look that her boyfriend is younger than her. Ever since she married Xiaotian, she had been idling around at home every day. Xiaotian has never once let her go out to work. She couldn’t even conceive a son. At last, she finally managed to get pregnant again but she stabbed the baby boy she was expecting. If she can conceive again, pigs are going to fly.”

Qiao Yina did not say anything further after hearing her remark.

“Sis, where are you living now?” Yu Caiwei asked her sister while sucking on her straw.

“Wei Ni Estate.”

“Hey... doesn’t that estate belong to Jin Qingyan?”

“It does belong to him, but he’s not the only resident. There are still many other residents. Why did you ask me out?” asked Yu Yiwei.

“We haven’t met in so long, it’s obviously because I missed you. Sis, since you’re a psychiatrist, are you living in Wei Ni Estate now because you have a patient there?” Yu Caiwei asked, smiling.

“Of course.”

“Who’s that patient?”

“I can’t tell you that, it’s confidential.”

Yu Caiwei said, “Father and Mother wants me to tell you to go home. They said that you haven’t been answering their calls.”

“Whenever they call, it’s to rush me to get married. So why should I answer?” Yu Yiwei said coldly, seemingly finding nothing wrong with ignoring her parents’ calls.

“Well, to our parents, it’s an ultimate sin for us to not be married even though we’re already in our thirties.”

“Haven’t you always had a boyfriend?”

“Sis, you’re so unconcerned about me. We’ve already broken up a long time ago!” Yu Caiwei snapped, rolling her eyes.

“Why?”

“Mainly because our parents have objected to it strongly. Another reason is...” She sighed and continued, “Forget it, let’s not talk about that.”

“What’s the other reason?”

“He doesn’t like the fact that I have many friends of the opposite gender and he thinks I’m always flirting with them. Hence, we’d decided to break up.”

“I remember you saying that you loved him very much and you even wanted to marry him. Isn’t it a pity to break up?”

“I don’t know.” Yu Caiwei finished her entire glass of orange juice.

After having lunch with her sister, Yu Caiwei got inside her nanny van. Her assistant asked, “Sis Caiwei, you seem to be in low spirits. What’s the matter?”

“Oh, it’s nothing.”

“Shall we head back to the agency now?”

“No, we’ll do that later. Let’s head to Qingyuan Estate now.”

“Oh, there again? What if you get caught by the paparazzi...”

“That won’t happen, I’m just going to take a look.”

Having worked for her for so long, the assistant was well aware of everything that happened between her and Yan Ge throughout their clandestine relationship.

However, she could not understand why Yu Caiwei had been frequenting Qingyuan Estate ever since she bumped into Yan Ge again at the celebratory dinner previously. She wondered if Yu Caiwei was just affected by the rumors of Yan Ge being in a relationship.

It was noontime, the hottest time of the day.

The chauffeur parked the nanny van into the parking lot, after which Yu Caiwei alighted with a red umbrella in hand, clad in a pair of shades and a surgical mask.

She sprinted toward the lobby while the assistant waited for her in the car. The assistant was self-aware and conscious enough to know that she should not tag along.

Ding... Yu Caiwei stepped out of the elevator and bumped into Fang Erlan, who was on her way out.

“Ms. Fang, are you going out?”

“I’m going downstairs to buy some icicles. Are you here to look for Yan Ge?”

“Yes.” She then pressed Yan Ge’s doorbell.

Fang Erlan entered the elevator, thinking to herself, Yu Caiwei had never looked Yan Ge up before the celebratory dinner. Why has she been dropping by every other day ever since the dinner?

Furthermore, she’s also his ex-girlfriend. Could it be that they had reconciled?

Fang Erlan was a little displeased at the thought of it. She deliberately bought two extra icicles when she was at the supermarket and pressed Yan Ge’s doorbell without hesitation once she went upstairs.

“I happened to bump into Ms. Yu when I was on my way out. Here, I bought you guys some icicles. The weather is too warm.”

“Come in,” said Yan Ge.

Fang Erlan entered and handed one of the icicles to Yu Caiwei, who was sitting on the couch. “There you go,” she said, smiling.

“I’m not having any.”

“Don’t stand on ceremony with me. It helps cool you down in this sweltering weather.”

“It contains so much sugar that it’s going to make me gain weight. I’m trying to lose weight right now.”

Fang Erlan handed it to Yan Ge instead, and he accepted it.

“If there’s nothing else, you may leave.”

Upon hearing his words, Fang Erlan instinctively stood up, only to have him press her down onto the couch. “I wasn’t referring to you.”
