Ye Mi turned on the computer, but there was no password. She took it back to her bedroom. After it was started, she found that there was no QQ on the computer. While downloading from the Internet, she curiously opened the hard drive. At a glance, her heart tightened. All the folders in it had a common name, He Xiaoning, which was only distinguished by Roman letters.

Ye Mi took a deep breath, her hands trembling a little. She was scared and immediately closed the computer. She kept pursing her lips, but her palms were still sweating. She kept comforting herself, but her eyes couldn't help but turn red.

The phone suddenly rang with the sound of a text message. It was from Qiao Yan. "Ye Zi, what's wrong?" He was a little worried as there was no reply.

Ye Mi was upset, her hands holding the phone were shaking constantly, and she kept sending text messages with errors. She simply didn't reply, and just threw it aside. She stared at the computer, bit her lip, and finally opened it again. Looking at the photos inside, the smiles on the faces of the two people were engraved with deep love and happiness. She opened the last video folder and opened the file called birthday with trembling hands.

Qiao Yan waited for a long time but still received no reply. He had a bad feeling in his heart, so he called Ye Mi.

Ye Mi looked at the phone that kept ringing. The laughter and moans in the video were constantly stimulating her nervous nerves. She closed the computer, turned off the phone, and slowly closed her eyes, but she couldn't help but shed tears. She took the computer back to his study, and everything returned to normal. She wanted to pretend that she didn't see anything, but she couldn't do it anymore. Now she began to understand why Qiao Yan didn't allow her to clean his study in the beginning.

"Once it's happened, you can't pretend it never happened. Once it's over, it's really over."

This sentence echoed in Ye Mi's ears repeatedly, but Ye Mi was not sure whether it was really over. He was so frank, was he really thorough, or was he just avoiding the main issue? She suddenly had no confidence in confessing the secret to Qiao Yan.

Ye Mi didn't know how long she had been in a daze, and then she heard the doorbell outside ringing repeatedly, very urgently. She came to her senses, grabbed the tissue beside her and wiped her tears, and opened the door to see He Qingwen panting and holding on to the door frame of her house.

"I say, what are you doing at home?" He was a little impatient and anxious.

Ye Mi pursed his lips, "Why are you here?"

He Qingwen felt a little uncomfortable when he saw her dislike for him. "Miss, I'm not here for a favor. Qiao Yan called me in a hurry, so I ran over from the meeting." After saying that, he walked into the living room very impolitely, turned around, and looked back at Ye Mi. "I didn't realize that you are quite clean. Don't say it was cleaned by a nanny."

Ye Mi really didn't have the mood to chat with him right now, so she stood at the door and said, "I'm fine. Aren't you very busy? Then go back to the meeting as soon as possible."

He Qingwen smelled something different. He walked over and found that Ye Mi's eyes were red. "Are you crying?" He took out his phone and said, "I was wondering why he was so anxious."

Ye Mi quickly grabbed his hand and said, "Don't tell him, I'm fine." She turned her face away, not wanting anyone to see her expression at the moment. What was this? Her husband secretly collected photos and videos of him with his ex-girlfriend, and they were of that kind. How could she feel

He Qingwen's face became a little gloomy, "Ye Mi, why are you so useless? Would you die without that man? Why can't you open your eyes and see that Qiao Yan is not the only man in the world, and he is not the only excellent one? What are you staring at with those big eyes every day? You really have big eyes that show your true colors. Only people with poor eyesight would choose someone like Qiao Yan." After saying that, he snatched his phone. At this time, Qiao Yan called again. He Qingwen thought about it and didn't answer it. He deserved to be anxious.

He turned around and looked at Ye Mi, "My mother is very bored today, why don't you go shopping with her." After saying that, he called his mother without waiting for Ye Mi to refute.

Ye Mi was a little nervous. How could she deserve the boss's wife to accompany her shopping to relieve her boredom? She tried her best to cheer up, but still inadvertently revealed all kinds of bad emotions.

Jiang Mingming saw it all and felt pain in her heart. Seeing that she was still walking on the street with a heavy heart and tired look, she changed her mind, "Ye Mi, I'm tired. Let's go for a beauty treatment together, a full body spa, and then a massage. It's very comfortable."

Ye Mi felt that she had no reason to refuse. The other person was of such a noble status and cared about her so much, what else could she do except accept it.

Lying in the warm water and smelling the light aroma of essential oils, I felt much more comfortable. The masseuse was very considerate, "Who is Miss Ye to Mrs. He?" she asked curiously.

Ye Mi lay on the massage bed, somewhat annoyed by such inquiries, "We have no relationship. Mrs. He is a very nice person and is just willing to be friends with me."

The masseur obviously didn't believe it. "Miss Ye must be Mrs. He's chosen daughter-in-law, otherwise why would she give you a membership card worth 200,000 yuan? It's okay, I won't tell anyone."

Ye Mi was startled, sat up suddenly, and quickly pulled a towel to cover her chest. "What did you say? You got me a membership card?" She was a little annoyed, and raised her fist to hit her head. This matter was getting bigger and bigger. "Don't guess, I'm married, I have a husband, her last name is Qiao, she's a pilot of Feiyang, I don't have any relationship with Mrs. He, except as a friend and a respected elder."

After saying that, she lay back down again. When she looked up, she saw Jiang Mingming staring at her, tears in his eyes, which accidentally flowed down. Ye Mi's heart tightened for a moment, and she quickly turned around and stood up, "Mrs. He, oh, don't be sad, I didn't mean it, I really didn't mean to say that." Ye Mi was a little terrified, but she saw that person crying even harder. She jumped off the bed and reached out to wipe her tears, but the towel on her chest slipped off all of a sudden. Ye Mi quickly squatted down, picked it up and wrapped herself up again, but the masseur quickly gave her a new one, and Ye Mi was a little flustered.

"Godmother, godmother, I can't call you godmother, I really don't mean to say that, I respect you very much, in my heart, you are like my own mother."

Jiang Mingming seemed not to hear it. She asked Ye Mi to turn around and gently stroked the birthmark on her shoulder as if she was stroking a treasure.

"That's a birthmark, it's ugly, isn't it!" Ye Mi was a little confused, "Qiao Yan said it looked like a leaf, and asked me to get a tattoo, and then write the word Qiao on it. It's narcissistic, all stinky men are narcissistic."

Jiang Mingming choked up and hugged her shoulders with both hands, "Child, my child."

Ye Mi's body froze and his mind went blank.

Qiao Yan was so anxious in the hotel. Ye Mi's phone was turned off, and He Qingwen never answered his call. When he called his secretary, he said that He Qingwen was in a meeting. Qiao Yan used his brain to analyze and knew that there must be nothing wrong, otherwise He Qingwen would not be answering the phone when she went to his house, and suddenly there was no movement. But without her voice, he could hardly calm down.

Ye Mi was also very irritable. She had been an orphan for 24 years. Her only source of life was her grandmother. Her mother abandoned her father, and her father was killed by a car on the way to find her mother. Ye Mi was a naturally happy child. She did not hate a woman who abandoned her, but she could not easily accept her when she appeared in front of her like this.

Ye Mi grabbed her clothes and put them back on. She ignored Jiang Mingming's pleas and turned to leave with her bag. Jiang Mingming ran to the door and blocked it. "Ye Mi, how can you be so cruel? You can be so nice to a strange aunt, why do you treat your mother like this?"

Ye Mi's eyes were a little red, but she still tried hard not to let the tears fall, "Mrs. He, I think you are mistaken. I am an orphan and I have no mother. My mother couldn't bear the hard life, so she abandoned her children and husband and went to live with rich people. And my father was stupid enough to go look for her. He was hit by a car and no one came to collect the body. We don't even know where the bones are." Ye Mi became more and more excited as he spoke, and tears still fell uncontrollably.

"Ye Zi, it's not like that. Let me explain..."

"Mrs. He, I have always respected you. You are a good wife and a good mother. We have no relationship. Please don't let me look down on you." Ye Mi pushed her away and slammed the door. Today was not a good day. After leaving the club, she looked up at the sky. Thick clouds blocked the sun. The wind blew and it seemed like it was going to rain heavily.

She just walked aimlessly on the street. She never complained about her origin, even when she was ridiculed by Qiao Yan's family. This was fate, she had no choice. God made her an ordinary girl, and she accepted the hardships of life. She made up for her congenital deficiencies. This was the meaning of her name. Nothing was insurmountable. So no matter how hard it was, she never complained about herself, and took every step of her life steadily. She liked such days. At this moment, with wealth and honor in front of her, she only had anger and resentment.

The city's summer rains are always heavy, and the rain comes fast and violently, pouring down in an instant. Ye Mi ran to the entrance of a five-star hotel on the roadside with her bag on her head to take shelter from the rain. There were also beautiful women coming and going here. Once upon a time, she would envy them and hope that she could be one of them, but she could not forgive a woman who abandoned her husband and daughter in order to enter the upper class. She reached out and wiped her face. Her hands were full of water. She didn't know whether it was the rain running down her hair or tears.

At this time, a Mercedes-Benz stopped in front of her. She was startled. She was not standing at the door, so it was a bit strange for the car to be parked here. She leaned forward slightly and took two steps back to make more space. But the car door opened, and Zhou Tongzhe came out.

"Ye Mi, why are you here?" Looking at the wet person in front of him, he turned around, opened the car door, took out a coat and put it on her.

Ye Mi was also a little strange. She looked at him innocently, "Why are you here?"

Zhou Tongzhe ignored her, turned around and said a few words to the driver, and the car drove away. He turned around and pulled Ye Mi into the hotel and got her a room. "What do you want to do? Every time I see you, you are dazed. It's easy to catch a cold in such heavy rain." He rushed into the bathroom and got her a towel. "Dry your head first, then take a shower. I'll come down to find you later." After saying that, he left, as if he had something urgent to do.

Ye Mi was stunned, and watched him leave in a hurry without saying a word. Ye Mi sighed, changed into a bathrobe, called to send her clothes for cleaning, and asked them to be delivered as soon as possible.

Ye Mi was just blowing her hair after taking a shower when the doorbell rang. It was Zhou Tongzhe. Ye Mi didn't know what to say, so she just said she didn't bring an umbrella when she went shopping. Zhou Tongzhe looked her up and down, and was a little skeptical when he saw that she had nothing in her hands. Ye Mi was afraid that he would ask more questions, so she quickly stopped him with words, "Why are you here? Who is in the car?"

"Oh, my dad is here." He thought for a moment and couldn't help laughing. "I'm telling you, I'm about to become a shareholder of Feiyang. My dad plans to invest some of the money he's made in recent years in the civil aviation industry. Now the state is increasingly supervising the energy sector. Shanxi coal mines were integrated a few years ago. No one knows what policies will be in the future. We don't plan to put all our eggs in one basket. Feiyang is the most profitable private aviation company, and my dad is optimistic about it."

Ye Mi didn't know much about economics, so he probably meant that Zhou Tongzhe's family was also one of Feiyang's bosses. "When did this happen?"

"In fact, we have almost reached an agreement. We have negotiated several times before, but it is still relatively pleasant. After this additional issuance, Feiyang's asset scale will increase by about 30%. If everything goes well, the news will be officially announced during the anniversary celebration, and then the specific matters of the additional issuance will be implemented."

"What about you?" She was a little confused.

"It has nothing to do with me. The money belongs to my father. It has nothing to do with me now. I am probably just a son of a shareholder." After saying that, he laughed. Ye Mi also laughed, but she was not happy in her heart. This matter had nothing to do with her.
