Chapter 76: Chapter 53: Hit the Spot

Li Mingyu had made a call halfway through the day to ask about Chen Yu’s condition, and, seeing that Chen Yu was adapting very well, she breathed a sigh of relief. Then, with an apologetic tone, she said she might only be able to come to pick him up in the evening.

Ye Xiao was quite fond of the child Chen Yu and naturally would not refuse.

It wasn’t until nine in the evening.

That Li Mingyu hurried over.

She seemed to have encountered some kind of problem as her expression wasn’t very good.

But when she saw Chen Yu and Ye Xiao, she still tried to put on a smile, “Sorry for being late, I really bothered everyone.”

“It’s no bother. Xiaoyu is very well-behaved,” Ye Xiao said with a smile.

“Xiaoyu is fortunate to have such a connection with you,” Li Mingyu said with a gentle look in her eyes. “It’s already late, so I’ll take him and leave first.”

Chen Yu was a bit reluctant, but this time, he didn’t act out. He obediently stood next to Li Mingyu before asking reluctantly, “Sister Ye, Auntie, can I come and visit you again in the future?”

Seeing that Chen Yu had expressly called out to her as well, Du Yaru’s smile blossomed: “Of course, you can. You could even live here if you like.”

Du Yaru genuinely liked the child and was momentarily overcome with maternal affection.

Chen Yu’s eyes brightened at first, but then he said very sensibly, “That would trouble everyone, and my grandma would miss me too. Grandma seemed to be in a bad mood today, so I should go home and keep her company. I’ll come to visit everyone next time.”

The child spoke in such a mature way for his age that it was incredibly endearing.

Ye Xiao couldn’t help but say softly, “You’re welcome anytime.”

She glanced at Ye Bolin and Gu Yan beside her.

[Why have Big Brother and Uncle Gu turned into fools? Director Li obviously ran into some trouble, so ask her already! The issue is most likely related to La Jingzhou; if she could be helped to solve it, wouldn’t that big director be in hand? Hurry, hurry, speak up!!!!!]

Ye Xiao urged frantically in her mind.

Ye Bolin gave a light cough and took the initiative to say, “Director Li, Xiao told me about what happened during the day. We did not expect Ye Bingtong to harbor such malicious intent. After hearing about it, we’ve asked her to leave the Ye Family, and we will publicly announce the disassociation between us in the newspapers.”

Li Mingyu was taken aback for a moment, then her expression softened a little.

It appeared that the Ye Family maintained very strict family values; Ye Bingtong was just an exception.

“Director Li seems to have run into some trouble. Is this issue related to this morning’s incident? If so, then Ye Bingtong bears a great deal of the responsibility. Although she has been kicked out now, the fact that such a thing happened is ultimately our failure to educate her properly. The Ye Family also bears responsibility. If there is anything Director Li can’t handle, our Ye Family is willing to help,” Ye Bolin said.

Li Mingyu hesitated for a moment; she had indeed run into some trouble. But she was not the type of person who liked to owe favors.

Without saying much more, Ye Bolin handed her a business card: “Director Li can reach out to me anytime.”

As he spoke, Ye Bolin hinted, “The entertainment industry is huge, and no one can truly cover the sky with one hand.”

Li Mingyu understood.

Her eyes flickered for a moment, and she lowered her head to acknowledge the point.

Without lingering, she put away the business card and left with Chen Yu.

Ye Xiao watched and felt reassured.

Having been in the business world for many years, Ye Bolin, now that he had handed out his business card, must have had his own calculations. There was no need for her to say more.

[Speaking of which, La Jingzhou wouldn’t be hard to suppress if not for the Liu Family’s support. The key lies with Liu Yan. Since she’s a love-addled person, should we consider using a honey trap?]

Ye Xiao suddenly looked at Ye Bolin with a peculiar glint in her eyes.

[Now that Big Brother’s engagement has been called off, and he has the looks of a decent man, if he could win Liu Yan’s heart, well, well, well, that would be perfect.]

Honey trap…

The others also turned their attention to Ye Bolin.

Even Gu Yan couldn’t help but laugh quietly.

Ye Bolin’s face darkened, but he was too fond of Ye Xiao to rebuke her, so he shot Gu Yan an annoyed glare, “Gu Yan, it’s so late already, why are you still hanging around our house? Time to scram, isn’t it?”

“Bolin!” Ye Mingcheng glanced at him, “Speak nicely!”
