Chu Lingyan has been spoiled and willful since she was a child. Because of her powerful family background, few people she bullied in the past dared to resist, let alone go to the police to sue her.

So when she was summoned to the Public Security Bureau for the first time and faced Ye Qingluo, she looked extremely arrogant, as if "Do you know who my father is?" was written directly on her face.

Even though Ye Qingluo had clearly stated that he did not agree to a settlement, she still did not take it seriously and even threatened him with the "signboard" issue.

But Chu Lingyan never expected that Ye Qingluo usually looked pure and indifferent to worldly affairs, but secretly he was a vixen of a very high level.

Not only did Ye Qingluo deceive her brother into thinking about her even after his divorce, but even the extremely principled Fu Jingchen, after knowing that she was secretly keeping a man, still defended her without any bottom line.

Originally, Chu Lingyan thought that no matter how capable Ye Qingluo was, that was all he could do. However, what made her so angry that she almost vomited blood was that even Ling Shi, the capital's most money-loving lawyer, changed his personality in front of her.

In order to please Ye Qingluo, Ling Shi could be said to be eager to serve Ye Qingluo as a lackey, and even money was not of much interest to him.

Even with Ling Shi as their guardian, the Chu family still failed to successfully bail out Chu Lingyan.

In the detention center, Chu Lingyan spent the most torturous seven days of his life.

Although her family had used their connections and given her money, she had not suffered the slightest bit of hardship in prison. However, every minute and every second of losing her freedom was filled with the shame of a loser. The unwillingness of not being able to fight back was even more frustrating than being slapped ten times by Ye Qingluo.

So seven days later, the first thing Chu Lingyan did after she came out of the detention center was to put on the most beautiful makeup, wear the most beautiful dress, and make up a perfect excuse to go to the Fu Group to find President Fu to explain the reason for her "disappearance" in the past few days.

The second thing is to take revenge on Ye Qingluo at all costs.

However, Chu Lingyan dressed herself up and went to the Fu Group as soon as possible, but was told by the front desk that President Fu had hired a new life assistant and would not meet anyone without an appointment.

There was really no other way, so Chu Lingyan called Mr. Fu again. The first person who nodded and expressed satisfaction with her was Fu Yehan's father. Now that she wanted to meet Mr. Fu, the only way was through Mr. Fu's relationship.

But things did not go as planned. The call from Mr. Fu was answered by the housekeeper, who said that the old man's health had not recovered yet and he was still in the recuperation period and would not see guests.

Chu Lingyan was extremely unhappy after being rejected twice.

Ye Qingluo!

Chu Lingyan had no place to vent her anger and could only blame all her resentment on Ye Qingluo.

She could naturally tell that Mr. Fu's rest was just an excuse, and the real reason why he didn't want to see her was that he had found someone new.

I don’t know which daughter Mr. Fu has taken a fancy to in just seven days.

Chu Lingyan gritted his teeth.

If it wasn’t Ye Qingluo, the “life assistant” accompanying Mr. Fu at this time would be her!

The summer wind brings heat waves, and it is scorching everywhere. It only gradually becomes cooler at night.

The last rays of the setting sun, like an orange-red veil, enveloped the surroundings of Ye Rao Garden.

Ye Qingluo turned on the light in the bedroom, turned off the air conditioner, went back to the bay window, opened the window that had been stuffy all afternoon, and let the natural breeze blow in.

Ever since she left the apartment with her suitcase a week ago, she turned off her cell phone and locked herself in the house, having a quiet week.

"Going downstairs for dinner."

Su Peiyun knocked on Ye Qingluo's door and went downstairs without waiting for a response.

Ye Qingluo picked up the unfinished draft on the bay window and added two strokes before heading downstairs.

"Tianqing said she would come over later."

Su Peiyun took a plate and a pair of unused chopsticks, added a little bit of the four dishes on the table, put them together into a plate and put it in the steamer to keep warm.

"What are you doing here, Tianqing?"

Ye Qingluo knew that his mother had left it for Chu Tianqing, so he picked up a bowl, filled it with soup, and placed it on the steamer compartment together with the dishes his mother had left.

"He didn't say anything." After the two of them returned to the dining table and sat down, Su Peiyun replied, "He just said that there is something very, very important that he wants to tell you in person."

"Oh." Ye Qingluo responded and didn't ask any more questions.

Su Peiyun didn't say anything more. She stared at Ye Qingluo for a while, lowered her eyes, adjusted the positions of the four dishes on the table, and moved the ones Ye Qingluo liked in front of her.

During the week that Ye Qingluo stayed at home, Su Peiyun could naturally see that something was obviously wrong with her daughter.

It seemed like overnight, my daughter had a lot of thoughts on her mind and even turned off her cell phone. You can imagine the seriousness of the matter.

Su Peiyun felt bad.

Even though she didn't ask a single question from beginning to end, she knew that her daughter must be facing emotional problems.

And emotional problems cannot be resolved with just a few words.

The best healing is only time.

So during this period of time, Su Peiyun tried her best to suppress her worry and did not ask any forced questions. She just accompanied her daughter silently, waiting for Ye Qingluo to adjust her mood and be willing to tell her what happened.

After they finished their meal, they cleared the table and sat on the sofa in the living room to chat about other topics.

After all, she is still a mother, and no matter how much she restrains herself, she cannot completely let go of her worries. Su Peiyun can only observe her daughter's reaction through other topics to judge the seriousness of the matter.

However, Ye Qingluo reacted very indifferently to all topics. He was willing to talk to her, but he could not go deep into any topic.

After a few words, he obviously lost interest.

The two of them sat on the sofa and chatted boringly for nearly an hour, but Chu Tianqing still hadn't come.

Apart from the question she wanted to ask the most about Ye Qingluo's relationship, Su Peiyun really couldn't find any other topic, so she could only talk about the weather.

"Qingluo, I saw the weather forecast says it will rain tonight." Su Peiyun reminded, "Remember to close the window before going to bed."

"It's time for some rain." Ye Qingluo nodded absentmindedly, and after a while asked again, "Is the rain heavy?"

"Not much." Su Peiyun said, "It's a little rain."

"That's no use." Ye Qingluo said regretfully.

"What's useless?" Su Peiyun was puzzled. "What are your plans for tomorrow?"

"No." Ye Qingluo said, and then immediately changed his words, "Oh, I have to go to work tomorrow."

"What does that have to do with rain?" Su Peiyun asked casually, then sorted out the logic and asked in confusion, "If you want to go to work, shouldn't you hope that the rain is as light as possible? What's the point of saying that light rain is useless?"

"I hope it rains heavily." Ye Qingluo said, "It would be best if it rains heavily."

Su Peiyun's gradually frowning brows were filled with confusion.

Before she could ask further questions, Ye Qingluo muttered to himself, "Let's wash away the madness of this world."

Su Peiyun: “…”
