In the chairman's office, Qi Kun heard Qiao Mo tell him to invest in Ye Shi's words, and laughed, so Qiao Mo suddenly stopped talking.

  "You just take care of the child in your belly now. You don't have the qualifications to discuss conditions with me," said Qi Kun, "You're not from Ye's company anymore, are you? Ye Zhenan was removed from office and can't even speak up at Ye's company. If you want to stay home and rest during pregnancy, that's fine. But if you want to come out and work, I'll arrange a position for you in Su Zhou."

  Qiao Mo thought for a moment and said: "Okay, I'll do it in Su Zhou."

  Because of Qiao Mo's identity being recognized as a private-born daughter outside, her position must not be lower than that of Qi Kun's two daughters.

  Qiu Kun said: "You can come tomorrow's regular meeting, I will notify at the regular meeting."

  Qiao Mo nodded, "Okay."

  Qiu Kun said: "Is it going to the hospital for examination this afternoon? I'm going out of town this afternoon, and I'll have Assistant Li accompany you to the hospital."

  ………………

  Ye's General Corporation, Office of the President.

  Yu Na was pushed back by Ye Ze Nan as soon as he came in, and her back leaned against the metal door handle, hitting it hard, right on her spine. The pain made her grit her teeth immediately.

  Ye Zenan seemed to realize he shouldn't have done that and even helped Yu Na up. He let out a breath between his teeth and said, "Sorry."

  However, the feeling of being devoured from within. It was like a raging fire that engulfed him, sweeping away his last shred of sanity. After supporting Yuna for a moment, he suddenly lunged forward again, directly pinning Yuna back onto the door panel with great force. The entire weight of his body pressed down on Yuna's.

  Yu Na's occipital bone bumped against the door panel, and her vision went black for a moment. Before she could react, Ye Ze Nan's lips had already pressed down heavily on hers, and the pepper spray in her hand fell to the ground with a "pa" sound.

  Ye Zenan seemed to be lacking a conflict outlet, wanting to suppress all the turmoil in his body, but it didn't have much effect. He almost frantically kissed Yu Na, with biting and tearing involved.

  Yu Na's mind went blank, completely petrified, unsure of how to react. The upper body shirt of her professional attire had already been pulled off halfway by Ye Ze Nan, revealing a smooth shoulder.

  Ye Zenan is now completely unconscious, his five internal organs seem to be gnawed by tens of millions of ants, and his mouth and nose are blocked, unable to breathe.

  Yu Na came back to her senses just as she was about to step down with her high heels, but Ye Ze Nan had already pushed her away a step earlier. Yu Na leaned against the door frame and only felt a surge of force, while Ye Ze Nan fell directly to the ground.

  Yu Na had completely regained her composure, picked up the stun gun from the ground and gave Ye Ze Nan a severe electric shock on his arm. Ye Ze Nan was in pain for a moment, and a pair of professional handcuffs had already been locked onto his hands, with the other end locked to the metal window frame.

  This steel window looks like a decorative piece for an office, but it was actually welded on by someone specially found by Yu Na and is very sturdy.

  Ye Zenan is now at his most unbearable time, and someone must be watching him. Fortunately, the office is relatively soundproof, and the outside can't hear the sounds inside the office very clearly.

  Yu Na stood up, having tidied up her clothes, took a step back, and looked down at Ye Zenan who was handcuffed to the steel window frame, pursing her lips.

  This time it was even more intense than the last, the handcuffs on Ye Zenan's wrists clanking against the steel window frame with a loud metallic crash, ringing out with a clang.

  Yu Na felt that Ye Ze Nan's whole body was trembling, she had seen his spirited and proud appearance on TV before, now it just feels especially regrettable. She thought the current situation was unbearable to watch, listening to his low growls made her heart ache.

  Next time I must prepare the tranquilizer in advance, when Ye Zhenan's addiction recurs, just inject him with a tranquilizer, which is better than watching Ye Zhenan self-mutilate now.

  It was unknown how long it had been when someone came to knock on the office door. Yu Na didn't open the door, but instead locked the inner door and pressed the intercom on Ye Ze Nan's desk: "What is it?"

  The secretary outside Ye Zenan's office said: "Just now someone from the board of directors came to ask if President Ye had changed his clothes."

  Yu Na said: "You go tell them directly, Ye will be fine soon."

  Yu Na said this sentence actually has no bottom, it will be fine soon, but how soon is this "soon", how long is it?

  However, as the president of Ye's company, even if he is about to step down, it is not impossible for him to leave without a word in the board meeting, but it is just too irresponsible and lacking basic respect for others.

  Ye Zenan's current suffering, Yu Na is not clear, because she has never been addicted to drugs. However, during the three months when she was a volunteer at the detox center, every day facing those who need to constantly fight against drug addiction, there are those who escape at the last minute, and in the end, they are all tied up on the bed, with screams filling the room.

  Now Ye Zenan, apart from the suppressed low growl and the self-mutilating grip on his own hand, didn't have any more extreme behavior. Yu Na knew that this was the last shred of sanity left in Ye Zenan's mind, just like when he had pinned her against the door and kissed her fiercely, but still pushed her away with a clear head.

  After a while, Ye Zenan's throat was no longer making low growls, only faint whimpers remained, just like a madly barking dog that had been abandoned, finally became pitiful when it saw its master.

  Yu Na glanced at Ye Ze Nan, her strength was almost exhausted, her wrists were handcuffed and hung down, with a streak of bright red that stung Yu Na's eyes.

  She walked over, took out the key and opened the handcuffs. Ye Zhenan's wrist seemed to have lost its supporting bone and fell down immediately, with a ring of blood marks on his wrist.

  Yu Na sighed, "Can you still move?"

  Ye Zenan hung his head low, with his hair disheveled on his forehead, as if he hadn't heard.

  Yu Na reached out to support him, leaning against the wall behind her, and barely managed to stand up. Ye Zhenan was standing with his back against the wall, his hand still shaking slightly, his lips were bitten by his teeth into a mottled pattern, his eyes were filled with bloodshot, but his face was abnormally pale, looking somewhat terrifying.

  The landline phone in the office rang again. Yu Na thought that the board meeting must be about to end and they were calling Ye Zenan again.

  Yu Na tried to loosen her grip a bit, looking at Ye Ze Nan standing steadily, before turning around and walking towards the office desk.

  Yuna.

  Ye Zenan suddenly called out to her from behind.

  "Huh?"

  Yu Na's footsteps didn't stop, she walked up to the office desk.

  Ye Zenan's voice was a little hoarse, as if it had been broken by loud shouting, mixed with that rough sawdust sound.

  "Afterwards I had a relapse of addiction, you handcuffed me and then kept a distance from me."

  Yu Na's hand hesitated for a moment, thinking of asking something, but the ringing phone was getting more and more urgent, so she answered it first.

  ………………

  This shareholders' meeting is almost over, and the temporary replacement for Ye Zenan's position as president is a younger member of the Ye family. When Pei Yuling heard that young man's name, she almost burst out laughing.

  It was all premeditated, and what they wanted was to take away Ye Shi's power from their own son.

  "I have something to say!"

  Song Yuqiao was drinking water when Pei Yuling said those four words, and his hand paused for a moment, almost spilling the water in the cup.

  "Wait a minute." Song Yuqiao directly interrupted Pei Yuling's words and turned to look at her, "Mrs. Ye, I have two sentences that I want to say to you, can I borrow half a step to talk?"

  Ye Sanbo, a high-ranking shareholder, frowned: "What is all this? Ze Nan has gone to change his clothes and hasn't come back yet. What are you trying to do now? Just wait for the results to be announced, and say everything after the meeting is over."

  "Are there any differing opinions?"

  A vote had already been taken, and this sentence was just a routine courtesy phrase. However, Pei Yuling seemed to want to speak again, so Song Yuqiao directly pinched Pei Yuling under the table. The board meeting ended, leaving only Ye Zenan's private contract signing afterwards.

  Song Yuqiao walked out, with Pei Yuling following behind her, grabbing her wrist.

  "Do you know how hard it will be to get it back if we let go now?" Pei Yuling's eyes were blazing with anger, her grip on Song Yuqiao's arm tightening.

  Song Yuqiao glanced at the person next to him, not too far away, and couldn't hear the voice from this side, before saying: "Mrs. Ye, can you put yourself in your son's shoes? He now has a drug addiction, if you don't send him for rehab, but still want him to stay in the company, what will happen when his addiction acts up? Are you going to quietly hand over a dose of heroin? He simply doesn't have the ability to continue staying in the company right now. You also saw the scene earlier, after leaving halfway through and never coming out again, what's the reason for that?"

  Pei Yuling was spoken to in this tone by a younger generation, and she was also furious in her heart. "Wasn't it you who got in touch with my son and let him get addicted? I haven't even thought about pursuing you for anything, and now you're biting back at me."

  "Not So Yong Qiao."

  The door of the president's office opened, and Ye Zenan had already changed into a new set of clothes, clean and tidy, with a tie tied up.

  Pei Yuling looked at Ye Zenan, her pale face making even her mother feel heartbroken.

  If Ye Zenan were at home, his mother would definitely be unable to bear it and would tie him up to watch him suffer.

  "It's not Song Yuqiao," Ye Zenan's gaze lingered on Song Yuqiao's face for a moment, saying, "It's Qiao Mo, Qiao Mo, who got addicted to drugs every day without my knowledge."

  Yu Na stood behind Ye Ze Nan, her hand on his elbow, through the fabric of his shirt, she could feel the tension in every muscle of Ye Ze Nan's body, and if he relaxed even a little, everything would collapse completely.

  Pei Yuling was stunned.

  She had always thought it was Song Yuqiao, but it turned out to be Qiao Mo!

  "But..."

  Pei Yuling hadn't even finished her sentence when Ye Zenan interrupted her.

  "Mom, I'm your son, you don't believe what I say, but instead believe what a stranger says?"

  Actually, Pei Yuling didn't mean to say that, she naturally unconditionally believed her son's words, it's just...

  Yesterday, I went with Qiaomu to the hospital for a prenatal checkup. The test results clearly showed that Qiaomu was pregnant with Ye Zenan's child.

  What's going on?

  Ye Zenan could no longer hold on, he now only wanted to lie down and rest for a while, then handle the proxy CEO's procedures. He weakly told Pei Yuling: "Mom, you don't have to worry about my affairs anymore, go home and rest some more. If Qiao Mo comes looking for you again, just ignore her."

  Ye Zenan had just turned around when he heard Pei Yuling call out from behind him: "But she's carrying your child!"

  This time, it wasn't just Ye Zenan who stopped in his tracks, but also Yu Na.

  Song Yuqiao suddenly thought of Xu Wenli, thinking of that night, holding the inspection report in her hand, to tell her "I'm pregnant, the child in my belly is my sister's husband."

  It's really karma.

  In that case, Song Yuqiao really had no way to participate anymore. This was a family matter of the Ye family now, and she had already left the Ye family and couldn't intervene.

  Ye Zenan's face looked a bit unsightly, and he couldn't be sure if he had ever touched Qiao Mo before. Every time he took drugs, similar illusions would appear, but he didn't feel anything, never having the feeling of having had sex/love.

  Yu Na directly took a step forward and grasped Ye Ze Nan's arm, looking at Pei Yu Ling.

  "She said the child in her belly is Ye's, and you believed it? You're too careless as a mother," Yu Na said. "Then I'll say that I'm pregnant now, and the child is Ye Zenan's, do you believe me?"

  Ye Zenan slightly lowered his head and looked at Yu Na.

  Yuna's eyelashes are very long and curled up, so even if she needs to put on makeup for work, she doesn't need to apply thick mascara.

  Pei Yuling sneered: "What's impossible?"

  Yu Na smiled slightly and spread her hand: "Okay, I'll take the pregnancy test report to your doorstep later. Please show me the dignity of a wealthy lady, slap a check for 5 million on my face, and tell me to leave and never appear in front of your son again. I absolutely won't be that kind of Mary Sue heroine who wants the child but not the money, and will make a scene until the child is born. I'll leave cleanly and won't bother anyone again."

  This round of words that left Pei Yuling speechless made Song Yuqiao, who was standing on the side, feel amused, while Pei Yuling's mouth was now trembling with anger, but she couldn't find any words to refute.

  "Can't be, right?" Yu Na sighed, "Well, the TV dramas really do have a big gap with reality, there's no comparison at all. I'd better just stick to being my secretary, but it's also not good for me to stay by General Ye's side as the lady of the manor. You can just treat me like air and ignore me."

  However, after Yu Na helped Ye Ze Nan go to the office to complete the handover procedures, Pei Yuling also gradually calmed down.

  A person who can feed poison to others with their own mouth, how much credibility can their words have.

  She thought back and felt that Qiao Mo's appearance was indeed a bit strange, from the occasional encounters in the hospital to later going home to get close to her, and then coming to Ye Shi because of her son's affairs. The whole process of getting to know each other seemed like it had been deliberately arranged by someone.

  However, what Bai Yuling needs to do first is to find someone to investigate Qiao Mo and figure out who this person really is.

  ………………

  In front of the elevator, Song Yuqiao said two sentences to Yuna.

  Yu Na's work ability is very strong, now she can help Ye Ze Nan by her side, which is the best thing.

  She went downstairs and walked out of the Ye Corporation's main gate, only to see Pei Si Cheng standing by his car on the opposite side of the road.

  Paisong held one elbow with one hand and held a mobile phone against his ear with the other hand.

  On the other end of the phone was Assistant Li from Songzhou Group.

  Pae Se-joon hasn't used this person in recent years because there was no conflict of interest with the Sohak Group. The previous placement of Assistant Lee at the Sohak Group was also due to the request of Pae Woo-hyun, as he had only one comment about doing business with Cheol-soo from the Sohak Group: "Too shady behind his back." Therefore, neither JQ nor the Pae family has collaborated with the Sohak Group.

  However, Pei Si Cheng did not expect that at this time, he would actually make use of Li Assistant, someone who had long been deemed useless.

  Pei Shoucheng heard from Li's assistant on the phone that he would be accompanying Qiao Mo to the hospital for a check-up in the afternoon, and Qi Kun's two daughters already knew about Qiao Mo's pregnancy.

  Pei Si Cheng raised his eyes to see that Song Yu Qiao had already walked out of the Ye Corporation, so he turned around and opened the passenger door first. Song Yu Qiao bent down and got in, and he walked around to the front of the car, asking: "Where's Qi Kun?"

  "Director Li replied, 'The chairman has gone to Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces to see a high-ranking monk who has attained enlightenment. Because the chairman is quite superstitious, no matter whether it's business or other matters, he always wants to ask for divination beforehand. This time should be about asking if there is a son in his destiny...'"

  Pei Sicheng's hand paused for a moment as he opened the driver's door when he heard the four words "attained enlightenment" from Assistant Li.

  Because he suddenly remembered that last time he went to S city mountain to find Song Yuqiao, the high monk he met at Lingyun Temple.

  Song Yuqiao saw Pei Si Cheng hang up the phone and didn't make any movements, so he fastened his seatbelt and turned around to ask: "What's wrong?"

  Pei Si turned around and leaned forward, looking into Song Yuqiao's eyes, saying: "Yuqiao, if you leave me, I'll go to the mountain to become a monk."

  Song Yuqiao: "......"

  "No," said Pei Si, "I'll send your son to the mountain to become a monk."

  Song Yuqiao smiled: "If you become a monk, should I become a nun?"

  Pei Si Cheng raised his hand and pulled down the hair tie that Song Yu Qiao had tied her hair with, "You look better with your hair down."

  Song Yuqiao blinked and reached out to touch Pei Si Cheng's forehead, "Do you have a fever? Why are you talking nonsense? Why would I want to leave you?"

  Pei Su's lips curled up into a faint smile, his mouth brushing against Song Yuqiao's cheek, kissing the now-healed scar on her face. "Last time I asked you a question, Yuqiao, I asked when did you fall in love with me."

  Song Yuqiao had already anticipated what Pei Shichen was going to ask next, the warm breath brushing against her face, she tried to move back and away from him a bit, but unfortunately, she was strapped in by the seatbelt, firmly, completely unable to move, all she could do was stare straight into Pei Shichen's piercing gaze.

  Pei Si wrapped his arms around Song Yuqiao's waist and chuckled: "Now, have you fallen in love with me?"
