The servant became anxious at the sight. “Young Master Ye, it’s not like that. I didn’t create any trouble. It wasn’t just me who saw it, others did too…”
“So what if she did push her? Where did Mrs. Ye get hurt, stumble or fall?! Call her over, and I can send her to the hospital for treatment.” Ye Qilan impatiently interrupted the servant’s words.
The servant was left speechless by Ye Qilan.
It was clear that Ye Qilan was shielding Su Hongxing, no matter the reason or motive, he chose to cover for her.
Du Qingyu, standing at the top of the second-floor staircase, heard everything clearly. She turned pale, unable to believe the words she just heard.
Su Hongxing was truly capable, able to have Ye Qilan protect her regardless of right or wrong.
She forced a bitter smile. So, what if they had a past? She is now Ye Yanhong’s wife. What right did she have to demand that Ye Qilan not protect Su Hongxing, but her instead?
“Young Master Four, you can’t be so biased. This isn’t fair! Mrs. Ye is already in a weak state, and as per age and respect, how could Miss Su be rude to the host…”
“Brother Three, whose servant is this?!”
Ye Qilan turned to Ye Xiandong and abruptly asked.
“It seems like it’s Du Yuqing’s servant.” Ye Xiandong’s glance swept over the location above the staircase.
Indeed, staying in this big house instead of being at work was the right call. There was an interesting drama unfolding here.
His ability to judge people was good, recognizing at first sight that Su Hongxing was a very capable woman.
“Go call Du Qingyu down here.” Ye Qilan randomly ordered another servant.
Just as he finished his words, Du Qingyu’s voice chimed in from the top of the staircase, “Everyone, stop arguing. It was my own fault for falling into the swimming pool, it has nothing to do with Miss Su.”
Du Qingyu in her Crescent-White Cheongsam walked gently down, her face adorned with a delicate smile, charming and attractive.
Even Su Hongxing couldn’t help but take a second look. After all, appreciation for beauty is universal. Among the women who had a past relationship with Ye Qilan, Du Qingyu’s disposition was undoubtedly the most outstanding.
She stood there quietly, like a beautiful painting.
“If there were misunderstandings, they should have been cleared up sooner. Isn’t she your servant? Servants who like to stir up trouble like this should be dismissed from the Ye family. I’ll make this decision for you.”Ye Qilan said categorically.
The servant was shocked to find herself the ultimate victim.
She looked to Du Qingyu for help, but Du Qingyu simply smiled and said, “If that’s what Qilan thinks, then let it be.”
The servant’s face fell; she knew she had lost.
Only after the servant was driven out of the Ye family residence did Ye Qilan speak in a quiet voice, “Until now, everyone has been courteously referring to my wife as Miss Su. Are you all doing so out of respect or failing to accept her as a member of the family?”
As he said this, his eyes subtly brushed over Du Qingyu’s face.
Du Qingyu’s gaze met Ye Qilan’s, and her heart skipped a beat.
She laughed lightly, “This is my oversight. Hongxing, please don’t get offended. I considered you my peer because of our similar age and referred to you as Miss Su but accidentally overlooked the fact that you are Qilan’s wife.”
Standing by Ye Qilan’s side, Su Hongxing replied Du Qingyu in two words, “Polite.”
“If there’s nothing else, you may go about your business and not gather here.”
Seeing no more excitement, the crowd finally dispersed..
