Bai Suye said hello to the Lan family and followed them out. Also following them out was Madam Lanting.
As soon as the door was closed, Lan Ye's hysterical crying was heard from inside, followed by a 'crackling' sound, and the fruits rolled all over the floor again.
Xia Xingchen turned around and glanced at Madam Lanting.
Lan Ting sighed. She felt sorry for Lan Ye. She had always treated Lan Ye as her own daughter. Seeing her commit suicide, she felt sad. She also sighed that she was too ignorant.
"You don't have to take this matter too seriously. She is usually very proud and has many admirers. Now, Ye Qing is dismissive of her, and the gap in his heart is too big, so he has reached a dead end."
Bai Suye said, "Aunt Lan, I hope you can mediate this matter. You know Ye Qing's character very well. If Lan Ye continues to be obsessed with this, it will only hurt him more."
Madam Lanting nodded. How could she not know? He could even give up the position of president, so how could he be coerced by Lan Ye? Only she herself could not understand!
… … … … …
Lan Ye’s crying broke Yun Xiang’s heart.
She hugged Lan Ye and couldn't help sobbing as she said, "This Ye Qing is ignorant, is Xia Xingchen the same? She knew that our Ye Ye... She still came here, wasn't she deliberately making things difficult for us? After all, she still called me 'little aunt'. No matter what, Ye Ye is still her cousin. Now she doesn't even care about our Ye Ye's life or death?"
"You also said that he would definitely come to see me..." Lan Ye glanced at his father in reproach, tears streaming down his face again. Xia Xingchen's arrival just now was clearly a provocation.
Lan Zhan was also angry. It would have been fine if he didn't come, but he specially entrusted Xia Xingchen to come. Isn't it obvious that he wanted to make fun of the Lan family and force Ye Ye to death? What if Ye Ye was stimulated by this and became unhappy again...
Thinking of this, his eyebrows jumped and he dared not think any further.
Yun Xiang obviously had the same idea. She hugged her daughter tighter in panic and said to Lan Zhan, "Think of a way. At least, make Ye Ye less sad."
Lan Zhan glanced at Lan Ye. Thinking of her dying appearance last night, he clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and asked, "Ye Ye, do you really have to be with him?"
"So what if he's the only one? In his eyes, there's only Xia Xingchen..."
Lan Ye thought again of the cruel words he said on the phone last night.
He said that he would never fall in love with her, Lan Ye...
This sentence, like a sharp sword, kept circling in her heart, causing her heart to ache. She covered her aching chest and murmured in a daze: "Mom, he said last night... He would never fall in love with me..."
Lan Zhan slapped his palm on the low table beside him, "What a joke! Our daughter is so unattractive to him! How is Xia Xingchen better than you?!"
"Speak softly, my elder sister is still outside!"
Lan Zhan snorted coldly, "Xia Xingchen is not a member of our Lan family! Ye Ye, cheer me up, I want to see how long he and Xia Xingchen can hold on! Now he is bewitched by Xia Xingchen, and when the day comes that they separate, I don't believe he can still say something like 'I will never love you'!"
"Separate?" Lan Ye raised his head from Yun Xiang's arms. "Dad, do you have a way to separate them?"
“It’s not that we can’t give it a try.”
"Really?" Lan Ye suddenly became more energetic. But the next moment, his shoulders slumped in disappointment, and he said awkwardly: "Even that kind of photo can't separate the two of them, what else can we do?"
On the side, Yun Xiang frowned worriedly, "Not right. You can't force things like feelings. Our Ye Ye is not bad, so why should we be obsessed with him alone?"
"Mom, I only like him now and only want to be with him."
"Why are you so stubborn?" Yun thought, "You two know Bai Yeqing much better than I do. He has been in the presidency for so many years, and there have been many people who plotted against him. But, take a closer look, what happened to those who plotted against him? I don't want to stop you from liking him, but true love for someone cannot tolerate tricks! Yeye, listen to my advice, it's not too late to leave now."
"Mom, do you want to help Xia Xingchen too?"
Yun Xiang sighed, "Mom is trying to help you!"
"If you really want to help me, you might as well think carefully with Dad about how to make Xia Xingchen disappear from Ye Qing's side." Lan Ye let go of Yun and wanted to lie back on the bed. "I'm tired and want to sleep."
"Ye Ye." Yun wanted to say something earnestly.
Lan Ye covered his ears and didn't want to listen anymore. He even turned his back to Yun Xiang.
… … … … … …
Originally, the media was unwilling to let Bai Yeqing and Xia Xingchen off after their backgrounds were exposed. However, after Bai Yeqing personally announced his resignation in the media, the media immediately changed direction in line with public opinion.
Now, most of the comments on Weibo are expressing regret and sorrow.
Even more people left messages and petitions on her Weibo, hoping that she would persuade the president to make a new decision.
Xia Xingchen looked at the messages, feeling happy for him but also helpless. She was happy that everyone except her cared about him and was grateful for his hard work over the years; she was helpless... when he was in this position, he had suffered too much criticism.
When the car stopped, she put away her phone and stopped watching the news. She took Xia Dabai's hand and walked towards the home furnishing market.
Because of Lan Ye's matter, she was delayed for two more days, and she hadn't even started choosing curtains for the new house. The Chinese New Year was coming up in a few days. She wanted to decorate the new house before the New Year, so that she could move in after the New Year. At that time, she would invite all the elders over, and the families would get together to eat and chat. Just thinking about it made her feel that the whole house would be lively and warm.
Although she would be reluctant to leave the people in the presidential palace, she still looked forward to starting to live an ordinary home life in the future. She has already started to plan to teach the president how to do housework in the future.
Until now, it is still difficult to imagine the President washing dishes in an apron.
"Dabao, what are you thinking about? You look so silly when you smile."
"Is it stupid?" Xia Xingchen touched his cheek, "You little kid don't understand. This is called happiness."
"Of course I understand!" Xia Dabai licked the lollipop, "Dabao, you are happy, Xiaobai is happy, then Dabai will be very happy too. However, if you give me a little sister, I will feel even happier!"
