After dinner, Ye Muyi didn't want to stay at home and continue to suffer, so he ran away with the food box prepared by the servant.
Ye Muan and Ji Yunqi stayed to accompany An Zhisu. After talking for a while, An Zhisu quietly glanced at Ye Muan. Ye Muan understood and led Ji Yunqi upstairs to his room.
This was Ji Yunqi's first time visiting Ye Mu'an's room. Ye Mu'an said, "You can take a look while I go to the study to find a book."
Ji Yunqi nodded. She was full of curiosity about Ye Muan's room.
Ye Muan left her in the room and went to find An Zhisu.
After knocking on the door and getting permission, Ye Muan walked into his parents' bedroom.
Ye Lancheng is not in the bedroom, he must have gone to the study to handle official business again.
An Zhisu immersed himself in looking for something in her jewelry room, and after a while she found a jewelry box. This was a meeting gift she planned to give to Ji Yunqi. It was a set of jewelry she collected when she was young. Now that she is older,
If you can't wear it anymore, it's just right for a young girl.
Ye Muan sat on the sofa and waited. When she came out, he asked, "Do you have something to tell me?"
An Zhisu hummed, put the jewelry box on the table, and asked, "Have you found the person who wanted to kill Huang Xiying?"
"Not yet."
Ye Muan replied.
"Is there anyone you suspect?"
An Zhisu asked again.
Ye Muan shook his head: "After checking Yunqi's social circle, she has a good reputation in the entertainment industry and has never had any conflicts with anyone."
"How do you know the person behind the scenes must be someone from the entertainment industry?"
An Zhisu asked rhetorically after hearing this.
Ye Mu'an was stunned for a moment, then understood what his mother meant and asked, "Do you have someone you suspect?"
An Zhisu nodded: "But I have no evidence."
"who?"
Ye Muan's eyes were dark.
"Li Yan."
An Zhisu had always wanted to remind his eldest son to stay away from Li Yan, but there had been no chance. Now he finally got the chance.
Ye Muan was surprised: "They don't know each other."
In my memory, the first time Li Yan met Ji Yunqi was that night in the hospital.
He really couldn't find any reason to connect the two people together, let alone the reason why Li Yan wanted to kill Ji Yunqi.
“Do we have to know each other before we can have the intention to harm others?
If I had to name one reason, it would be jealousy."
An Zhisu said.
"envy?"
Ye Muan didn't understand.
Is Li Yan jealous of Ji Yunqi?
What should she be jealous of? Although Ji Yunqi is an excellent and beautiful girl, Li Yan is not bad either. On the contrary, Li Yan is much smarter than Ji Yunqi.
An Zhisu held his forehead, her eldest son was good at everything except his emotional intelligence.
Originally, my emotional intelligence was low, and I was preoccupied with the laboratory. I never wanted to spend time and effort making friends with others. Growing up, I only had friends like Su Lin around me, let alone talking about feelings with the opposite sex.
Besides, he has had Ji Yunqi in his heart since he was a child. He spent all his extra time on Ji Yunqi, leaving no energy to worry about whether Li Yan had feelings for him or not.
Li Yan was also very smart. He kept the distance between her and Ye Muan just right, neither far nor close, so that Ye Muan would not forget her, nor would Ye Muan dislike her, so that Ye Muan never noticed that Li Yan liked her.
he.
"Silly son, Li Yan likes you, and you also like Ji Yunqi. She loves you but can't get it, so she has the intention to harm others."
An Zhisu simply stated it clearly.
There was a hint of surprise in Ye Muan's deep eyes.
Li Yan likes him?
How come he doesn't know?
There are too many girls who have liked him. He knows very well what it is like to like someone, and it is definitely not like Li Yan.
He never saw from Li Yan that she had feelings for him.
Ye Mu'an couldn't accept the fact that Li Yan liked him, let alone the logic that he would hurt the girl he liked just because he liked him.
"Mom, you are not someone who doubts others casually. Did Li Yan do something that allowed you to catch the evidence?"
Ye Muan asked after digesting it for a moment.
An Zhisu spread his hands: "If I had evidence, I would have confronted her face to face. As I said just now, I just doubted her.
Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence?
Something happened to Yunqi just after she returned home. Didn't Huang Xiying also say that the person behind the scenes who wanted to harm Yunqi was a woman?
She is currently the biggest suspect."
Ye Mu'an thought about the time when Li Yan returned to China, and the time when Ji Yunqi was accidentally injured on the set was very close. It was indeed too close.
"And in order to stay at the Shengshi headquarters, she also used some methods that I didn't like very much."
An Zhisu said.
Ye Muan asked her with his eyes.
An Zhisu told Ye Muan about Li Yan's resignation.
Ye Mu'an frowned after hearing this. It was indeed a bit disgusting to force his parents to leave her to work at the Shengshi headquarters by resigning.
"I have rarely contacted her in the past few years. I don't know how she became like this."
Ye Muan raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows. He really didn't understand women.
"Maybe it's not that she has changed, but that we never really understood her."
An Zhisu has been thinking about this question recently, whether Li Yan has changed or is this his nature.
"Um?"
Ye Muan didn't understand this.
An Zhisu said: "Now that I think about what Li Yan has done since he was a child, it seems that he was quite scheming.
When she lived in our house, your sister disliked her very much and even hinted that I was blind. At that time, I just felt that she was spoiled by you. The princess had a too bad temper and didn't like having another girl competing with her for favor in the family.
Recently, your godmother also reminded me of something. The case of human traffickers was handled very quickly and urgently. We all focused on those poor children, thinking about how to help them find their families and support their lives.
As we went on, we didn’t think about one question. So many children were abused by human traffickers and became disabled. Why was it that Li Yan had sound limbs and was safe and sound?
Is she smart enough?
Of course this must be one of them, but aren't there other reasons?
I asked Lao Jiu to investigate those human traffickers back then, and guess what?"
Ye Muan shook his head.
"Almost all of them died due to various accidents not long after they were released from prison. Do you think this is a coincidence?"
An Zhisu looked serious. While she was paralyzing Li Yan, making Li Yan feel that she no longer doubted her, she asked Lao Jiu to investigate what happened back then, and this is the result she got.
Ye Muan's expression became a little darker.
"After learning about this result, I thought about whether I could ask something from the children who were rescued together back then. Unfortunately, they were too young and couldn't remember many things.
A few of the older ones didn’t know why the traffickers were so kind to Li Yan. They only knew that the traffickers never beat or scolded Li Yan, but no one knew the reason.”
An Zhisu continued.
Ye Muan pursed his lips, feeling as if he had never recognized Li Yan clearly. Apart from knowing that she was smart and talented in mathematics, he knew nothing about her.
"I'm still investigating her. I'm just telling you this to remind you not to be deceived by Li Yan's appearance. If she comes to you again, avoid her if you can, but don't let her notice anything."
An Zhisu reminded him after finishing what he wanted to say.
Ye Muan nodded: "I understand.
Mom, let me check this matter myself.
I was the one who lured the wolf into the house, so even if I want to catch the wolf, I should do it myself and not bother you."
An Zhisu thought for a while and agreed. It seemed like she would be worth a lot if an elder had to deal with a junior.
Since it is a matter for their young people, let them solve it for them.
When they can't solve it, it's not too late for her to take action.
