Since they were in public, Gao Wen naturally could not break down completely. She tried to calm down and stop her tears from falling. She hid behind Jiang Jin and wiped the tears off her face. Then, she said, “It’s all my fault for spoiling her excessively. That’s why she’s so domineering and quick to anger. It’s good that this happened so she can learn a lesson.”
Jiang Jin frowned. “How can you endure it? My heart aches when I think about it. If you ask me, I think you’re too muddle-headed. How did a good child turn out like that? Why didn’t you look for the reason?”
Gao Wen was stunned by these words. She looked at Jiang Jin wordlessly as various thoughts appeared in her mind. ‘The reason? Isn’t it because of your grandson? If your grandson didn’t suddenly marry a strange woman and marry my daughter instead, would my daughter be in such a state now?’
Upon seeing Gao Wen’s lack of response, Jiang Jin continued to say, “Have you ever brought Ye Xin’s birthdate for divination? Did she encounter something evil, causing her to act like this?”
Gao Wen was taken aback. She had never thought about this at all.
Jiang Jin smiled and said, “I’m old. I’ve experienced all kinds of storms in my life. Anything is possible in this world. Sometimes you might encounter things that can’t be solved logically. There are many prominent families that declined for unknown reasons as well. Think about it…. Don’t you agree with me?”
Gao Wen’s expression turned slightly solemn.
Jiang Jin did not rush and slowly told Gao Wen about two prominent families that fell into decline in the early years.
Gao Wen grew more and more relaxed around Jiang Jin as she listened to Jiang Jin speak.
Meanwhile, Ye Xin, who was standing in the distance, wanted to approach Jiang Jin and Gao Wen to listen in on their conversation. However, Sister Yu stopped her.
Sister Yu whispered, “Young Madam, the Mu family and the Ye family are old friends. Miss Ye behaved outrageously previously so the relationship between the families was slightly tense. The Old Madam specially invited Madam Ye here today to resolve the conflict and make peace. They’re your elders; it’s best to leave them alone to speak. Why don’t you entertain the other Madams and socialize a little? Don’t think that the Old Madam is distracted while she’s speaking to Madam Ye. In fact, she’s probably observing you as well. You have to seize this chance to show off your ability.”
Sister Yu’s words successfully ignited Ye Xin’s fighting spirit. She had wondered why Jiang Jin had brought her here but left her alone to chat with another person. As it turned out, it was to test her ability!
Ye Xin felt rather excited by this opportunity. If she had to go to the hospital and treat patients, she would have to spend a lot of time explaining herself. However, she was like a fish in water in this environment. Initially, she had been worried she could not imitate Song Ning or her medical skills. However, Mu Qing had advised her and told her to adapt to the situation as needed. During the past three months, she managed to muddle through and avoid checking Jiang Jin’s pulse. This matter had been bothering her; she was afraid Jiang Jin would think she was useless. However, she was now presented with such a good chance to display her skills. She might not know how to check someone’s pulse, but she was highly skilled in socializing, especially with the wealthy Madams. She had plenty of topics to speak to them about and please them.
Ye Xin glanced at Jiang Jin and Gao Wen before she decided to heed Sister Yu’s advice. Moreover, she did not want to spend any time with Gao Wen. It would make her think about how Gao Wen had been so cruel and let others mistreat her.
Ye Xin’s fighting spirit soared. She had an important job to do now. She had to help Mu Qing obtain Zhuang Ji. One day, she would tell her family she was Ye Xin; Ye Xin who had taken everything away from Song Ning.
Since she was young, she had gotten everything that she had wanted. Currently, it was the same!
She wanted Song Ning’s man. It did not matter if he was impotent or not.. She wanted Song Ning’s career as well. From now on, everything that belonged to Song Ning would belong to her!
