If she continued to stay by his side, under his close protection, she would be even more unsuited to it when she left. Since Xi Jin Cheng didn't love her, that famous and brilliant Mistress Xi stood by his side sooner or later.

As for her feelings for him ? It was no longer important.

Since she had already decided to leave, Ye An Ran didn't want to waver her resolve any further. Looking at the man's back who had walked to the entrance of the private box, he said, "I can't go with you, I still have urgent matters."

The man's footsteps suddenly stopped. With his back facing her, he coldly mocked her, "Is it an urgent matter?" Or was it an excuse that she didn't want to accompany him at all?

Ye An Ran opened his mouth wanting to explain, but the man had already opened the door and walked out, "If you don't want to, then I don't have the appetite to watch you."

The sound of the door slamming shut echoed in the empty room, making her heart ache.

But she didn't have time to think about this, and quickly found her phone to broadcast the previous call. Xin Ai didn't know what was going on, she just needed to find her as soon as possible.

The call connected and a cheerful laughter came from inside, followed by an impatient voice, "Hello, Ye An Ran, what are you calling me for!"

Ye An Ran was startled, then asked: "Where are you?"

"Where else could I be? I just got home from a tuition class at the end of the week due to you. You know full well that you can't be purposely teasing me, right? Let me tell you, Ye An Ran, don't think that just because Dad likes you that you don't know who you are.

Ye An Ran decisively cut off the increasingly intense ridicule on his phone, and called out the short message Ye Xin Ai had sent her before. As he looked at the contents of the distress request, his eyes darkened.

It was no wonder that she felt that something was amiss, but she was too anxious to think of what it was.

Her relationship with Ye Xin Ai was like fire and water at home, if something really happened, he wouldn't ask her for help.

Then, it goes without saying that the person who sent this distress message, that was sent by Xin Ai's phone, that almost led her to the private box, was none other than him alone.

Thinking about the company's recent audit of the accounts, was that woman already feeling guilty?

Ye An Ran clenched his phone tightly, and raised his head, as if he had made some sort of decision. After walking out of the private room, he went to the door and hailed a taxi.

Behind the flower bed on the east side of the clubhouse, a business card dinner slowly drove out after the taxi left.

The assistant looked at the man filled with hostility after getting on the carriage and asked carefully, "CEO, do you need me to continue to follow and protect you?"

The man snorted coldly and closed his eyes, remaining silent.

The assistant was unsure of what Home CEO meant, and after a few seconds of hesitation, he stepped on the accelerator and followed the taxi in front.

From the rearview mirror, he could see that the man in the back didn't open his eyes. He simply followed the taxi and drove through half of the city before stopping in front of a middle-class villa complex.

Watching the woman get off the taxi and enter the villa complex, the assistant was just about to ask again when she heard the man behind her suddenly shout, "Go back to the company!"

In CEO's heart, even though he was worried about Miss Ye, he still remained silent, full of arrogance.

Sooner or later, when the Miss Ye returned to someone else, he would regret it.

The assistant retorted in his heart, but he also understood that the CEO had a temper and did not dare to say a word. He looked at the man who was deep in thought outside the window in the rearview mirror, slightly shook his head, and turned around.

In the evening, the orange light of the setting sun shone down on the independent villas with their red tiles and white walls.

Xi Jin Cheng looked at the slender figure that gradually disappeared into the afterglow of the sunset, and the corner of his mouth hooked into a devilish smile filled with profoundness.

The villa area that the Ye Family lived in was a place where unfamiliar vehicles were not allowed to enter. The taxi stopped in front of the entrance.

Ye An Ran paid the fare and walked all the way home.

The family was sitting in the dining room.

Ye Sheng Nian saw her come in and glanced at the clock on the wall. He raised his eyebrows: "Why is a girl working so late to go home?"

"Who told you I work overtime?" Ye An Ran changed her shoes and looked at Gao Min, only to see her expression freeze up for a moment, and then she pretended to eat as though nothing had happened.

Heh, his acting is really calm.

Ye An Ran sneered in his heart, walked to the side of the table, and upon hearing that she wasn't working overtime, he glanced at Gao Min, who was lowering her head to eat. In the end, her gaze stopped at Ye An Ran's torn skirt, and her expression couldn't help but become anxious, "What's going on, what happened?"

Ye An Ran's heart slightly tensed up, but just as he was about to speak, Ye Xin Ai quickly blurted out, "Her name is out there, and she has chosen to meet another potential customer privately."

No matter how she mocked and disdained Ye An Ran, she could not find him pleasing to the eye.

"This financial backer's identity is not ordinary. Do you want this sister to introduce him to you?" Ye An Ran's finger wrapped around Xin Ai's chin, and as he said that, he looked at Gao Min, who was beside her, and the latter's face froze, unable to see her emotions.

At that time, the restaurant's light was slightly dim. Ye Xin Ai looked at Ye An Ran's exquisite and perfect face which was just inches away from him, and the cold smile on his face became more and more ingrained in his bones.

Even if it was someone from the same sex, she would still be stunned for a moment. She then slapped Ye An Ran's hand away and said, "Let go, I'm not as shameless as you."

Ye An Ran did not refute her, but her expression had already darkened, "Why is Xin Ai talking to your sister, why aren't you apologizing!"

"No need Dad, I was playing with Xin Ai, right?" Ye An Ran laughed as he pinched Ye Xin Ai under the table, causing her to scold him once again. She was so angry that Ye Sheng Nian slapped his chopsticks and pointed at her, "The bigger you are, the less you look like you, scram and go upstairs to read."

Ye Xin Ai couldn't hide her emotions anymore, and normally, she would take's loss in such a way. She glared at her angrily, and ran off without eating anything.

Ye An Ran smiled as he sat there watching Gao Min take a breather on Ye Sheng Nian's chest. When she looked over, he raised his eyebrows and replied her, "Auntie Gao, Xin Ai is about to take the civil servant examination. It's best for you to not go out and look after her too much."

"You ?" How could Gao Min not know that the meaning of her words was to restrict her movement, just as she was about to be interrupted by her husband?

Ye Sheng Nian's anger had not yet settled on her, "Ye An Ran is right, I want to see how much you've been taught since you started doing beauty pointers everyday. Before next month's civil servant exam, all of you, mother and daughter, will stay at home for me, with the exception of tutoring."

Gao Min was startled, she did not expect Ye Sheng Nian to listen to her little fox like that, the fingers under the table continued to tighten, and even her knuckles turned white.

Ye Sheng Nian felt the strange Qi field of the two, their gazes were scanning between the left and right, with a sharp gaze, it was as though he could see through them.

Ye An Ran calmly picked up her bowl and chopsticks, and started eating. After making such a ruckus, Ye Sheng Nian had been intentionally distracted by her so she could eat well now.

Gao Min, on the other hand, felt uncomfortable under her husband's stare. She lowered her head to eat her rice to hide her guilt.

When Ye An Ran saw that Gao Min's expression was no longer calm, a trace of cold ridicule surfaced from the corner of her mouth. She was starting to worry, based on those small movements of hers, she would definitely be scared witless in the future.
