Chapter 24 - 023: Ex-Husband
Bai Xue quickly admitted her mistake with sincerity, and Old Mrs. Ye was not someone who enjoyed causing trouble, so she naturally wouldn’t say much more.
Fortunately, nothing else happened, and they were finally led by a small employee to the large cafeteria where the family gathering was held. In her past life, Ye Ling had also lived in the compound. In the first year after returning home from school to the city, she spent New Year’s at the company with her family, so she was familiar with this. However, in the following year, she never spent New Year’s at the company again. Her mother would leave her alone at home to take care of the house, and she didn’t feel angry at all, even promising to keep the house in good order.
In her past life, because of the incident where she was beaten, she and her grandmother came to the company for New Year’s, but they didn’t stay for long and left early, which was different from her current life. Now that things had changed, Ye Ling believed everything would be different in the future.
Looking back now, she found herself ridiculous.
"Sis, why are you laughing?" Ye Qian’s voice sounded beside her.
Her voice attracted Bai Xue’s attention, who was standing next to Old Mrs. Ye, with a not-so-friendly gaze. Bai Xue had just been scolded by her mother-in-law, and her elder daughter was laughing nearby. How could Bai Xue not think more about it?
Ye Ling immediately guessed that Ye Qian was trying to harm her, making their mother misunderstand and further dislike her. Ye Ling naturally wouldn’t let Ye Qian feel comfortable, "Eh? It was clearly you laughing, so why are you saying it was me?"
"Sis..." Ye Qian stopped, looking aggrieved.
Ye Ling rolled her eyes and went straight to her support, "Grandma, look, I was just telling the truth, and my sister acted as if she’s been wronged. Thanks to you being here, otherwise, how could I not be misunderstood as bullying her?"
Ye Qian was obviously stunned by Ye Ling’s reaction and hadn’t come to her senses yet.
