Chapter 403: Chapter 403
Ye Ling is getting married, and many people are busy because of it, like Ye Qian and Bai Hehua.
Ye Qian took leave early, and even though Ye Ling said there wasn’t much to do the next day, Ye Qian still went to her father, accompanying him. In the morning, Ye Ling and the others went to get the marriage certificate, and Ye Qian didn’t need to go with them. But in the afternoon, she had to go to the compound to help set up the new room, so Ye Qian followed to help. The two-story villa unique to the compound had Ye Ling and their new room on the second floor. Ye Qian unintentionally glanced at the room next door and saw that white wedding dress. How could she not like it? Many people from the Li Family came today, mostly company family members, all gathered around talking to Ye Ling. Ye Ling, who usually didn’t say much, had a lot to say. Ye Qian felt that Ye Ling was glowing in the crowd, so radiant that it was striking. Indeed, they say a girl is the most beautiful on her wedding day.
The new room was arranged even more cozily. As soon as you entered the room, you could see a double bed by the window, with red floor-length curtains embroidered with mandarin ducks. To the left of the bed was a three-door wardrobe, and to the right was a desk with skincare products on it, all new items. There were two pairs of slippers, one for each gender, under the bed, and two red folding chairs neatly put away by the desk against the wall.
When someone opened the wardrobe, Ye Qian saw many new clothes hanging inside, mostly in bright colors, which showed the thoughtfulness of the man’s family. They even prepared everyday clothes for the bride after marriage. Not seeing it, Ye Qian could control herself, but on such a day, her heart felt twisted with pain.
How could Ye Ling be so happy? Why does she get to be so happy?
Pushed out by the crowd, Ye Qian came out of her jealousy and, startled, observed her surroundings. Fortunately, no one noticed her panic, and she went downstairs with everyone because there wasn’t a meal planned for tomorrow’s wedding; everyone went home early.
This way, Ye Qian and Ye Ling rarely walked alone together.
As they left the compound and crossed a street, Ye Qian angrily glanced at Ye Ling, who raised an eyebrow and heard Ye Qian say, "Did you already know Shen Bin’s true identity? Is that why you took the handkerchief I gave him? No wonder you’ve always guarded against me getting close to Shen Bin, so it turns out you had ulterior motives."

"Jealous?" Ye Ling particularly despised the current Ye Qian. "I recall someone who looked down on Shen Bin because he came from the countryside and was divorced. Now look who’s talking about ulterior motives. So what if I knew Shen Bin’s true identity from the start? I’m the one marrying him, not you."
"Ye Ling, can you really hold onto your happiness? Fu Lei used you, and Xiang Weilai abandoned you for the Liu Family. Why couldn’t Shen Bin leave you for another woman?" Ye Qian spoke of the past with glee. "I’m just waiting to see how happy you can be."
Ye Ling nodded, "Don’t worry. With what I’ve been through, I’ll know how to hold on to my happiness. If you want to see, just watch slowly."
Ye Qian was furious, "You egged on mom and dad to divorce. I’ll see how good you can have it."
But she knew she couldn’t outtalk Ye Ling, so she left in a fury, walking away first.
Ye Ling also knew this person truly had no other options, which is why she couldn’t help but say these things. Otherwise, the usual Ye Qian wouldn’t show such an ugly side of herself.
Ye Qian returned home with red eyes, just in time to see Bai Hehua talking to her mother, glanced lightly at her, and sat down on the bed. Bai Xue worriedly said, "Did Ye Ling bully you?"
"She’s my older sister; how could she bully me?" Ye Qian didn’t want Bai Hehua to underestimate her and lied, "I was just thinking that my sister is getting married, and it feels bad. Although we didn’t spend much time together before, at least she wasn’t married. After tomorrow, she’ll belong to someone else. Just thinking about it feels uncomfortable. Fortunately, the Li Family treats her well. I’ve seen the new room; everything is new and good, and there’s even a wedding photo. The wedding dress my sister wore was bought by Aunt Li from Shanghai. They’ve been preparing it for six months, a testament to their efforts."
Ye Qian was intensely jealous but wanted Bai Hehua to feel worse. This time, the one who should be feeling worse was Bai Hehua. Sure enough, seeing Bai Hehua’s stiff face made Ye Qian feel a little better.
Bai Xue didn’t know her daughter’s intentions, but she couldn’t stand seeing Ye Ling doing well, "Those things aren’t good for food and drink. What’s the use? It’s just the Li Family saving face that’s all."
"Mom, that’s not how you should put it." Ye Qian showed glee on her face, "You didn’t see inside the wardrobe; there were all new clothes with good colors. You can’t buy that kind of style and fabric here. I guess it’s also bought from Shanghai. Aunt Li is really nice to my sister."
Bai Xue saw her daughter refute her and didn’t want to anger her, but thinking about how well Ye Ling married, her heart felt bitter. Looking at her niece, she couldn’t help but vent her anger on her, "You, you. What should I say to you? If you’d put in some effort before, all of this could have been yours. In the end, Ye Ling benefited from it, and now she looks down on us with her chin up. She wouldn’t listen before, and now with the Li Family backing her, we still have to suck up to her."
Speaking of these, Bai Xue truly felt unwilling.
Bai Hehua’s eyes reddened, "I don’t have that kind of fortune. The eldest sister is really lucky. No matter how bad her temper is, Aunt is her biological mother, and she can’t stand by if Aunt needs help in the future. Even if the eldest sister doesn’t care, she still has a brother-in-law, who can’t disregard them, right?"
These words warmed Bai Xue’s heart and softened her face, "If she doesn’t care, then don’t blame me for not sparing her later."
Bai Hehua sighed, "It’s a pity the eldest sister will be transferred soon, and who knows when she’ll be back. Even if Aunt has trouble, she can’t help from afar."
Obviously spoken inadvertently, but it reminded Bai Xue. Isn’t that the truth?
Ye Qian glanced at Bai Hehua, full of disgust. She looked harmless, but she set traps everywhere, truly hypocritical. But although she never liked her, what she did today made Ye Qian feel good. Given her mother’s nature, who knows what lousy ideas she’d come up with, having Ye Ling embarrass herself in the Li Family would be a way to annoy Ye Ling.
Meanwhile, Bai Xue stopped talking but was seriously thinking about her niece’s words. Her most urgent thing now was to find a good in-laws for her younger daughter. Ye Ling certainly wouldn’t help with that, so she had to rely on the Li Family. Once Ye Ling leaves, she would ask the Li Family, and how could they refuse?
With this in mind, Bai Xue thought it would be even better once Ye Ling left. It would be more convenient to go to the Li Family for errands. Bai Hehua and Ye Qian didn’t realize that all their scheming was useless. (To be continued. If you work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets.
