Chapter 162 Going to Apologize in Person
Ye Chengyan turned aside to avoid her.
Yu Baisu missed her target. She turned to look at Ye Chengyan with a wronged expression, "Ayan...why did you do that?"
"Did you do this on purpose today?" Ye Chengyan sat casually to the side, propping his head up with one hand, his long, narrow black eyes staring straight at her without any emotion.
Yu Baisu's aggrieved expression froze for a second, then she pretended not to understand, biting her lip pitifully, "Ayan, what are you saying? I don't understand. My face hurts so much, Ayan. The doctor said there might be a scar. What if I really get a scar...?"
As she spoke, she couldn't continue, sobbing softly, her shoulders shaking, looking incredibly pitiful.
Ye Chengyan glanced at the white gauze on her face, and the cold, hard lines on his face softened.
Yu Baisu is a minor actress, but for the past two years, her focus has been on Ye Chengyan and Ye Ze. She only wants to marry Ye Chengyan and become a rich wife, so she doesn't pay much attention to her job. Even so, for an actress, having a scar on her face is absolutely devastating.
"It won't leave a scar."
"I... I'm just scared."
Yu Baisu carefully wiped away her tears, thinking she had managed to bluff her way out of the previous topic.
"Now can you tell me why you deliberately bumped into Yunzhi on the playground today?" Ye Chengyan's calm voice made Yu Baisu's heart skip a beat.
She looked up and met Ye Chengyan's unfathomable black eyes.
Yu Baisu knew she couldn't escape it any longer. Her eyes darted around, and she tentatively extended her feet.
Ye Chengyan frowned, looking puzzled. But when he saw that Yu Baisu's feet, which were originally fair and smooth like warm jade, were now scratched with varying depths by pebbles, his expression changed slightly. He reached out and carefully stroked her feet.
His throat tightened. "Was this a cut from the competition just now? Why didn't you tell me?"
Yu Baisu felt as if she had been burned and tried to pull her foot back, but after two unsuccessful attempts, she finally gave up. She turned her head away, her delicate voice trembling with tears.
"I... I wanted to win first place. I didn't want to disappoint Xiaoze. Ayan, I really lost my mind in the end. I made a mistake and did something that hurt both of us. Ayan, I know you're disappointed in me, but Ayan, could you please not hate me?"
Yu Baisu raised her head and carefully grabbed the hem of his clothes.
Tears slid down her cheeks and fell onto the floor, as if they were falling into Ye Chengyan's heart.
Upon hearing this, Ye Chengyan's expression became complicated.
He never expected that Yu Baisu would do such a thing because Ye Ze casually mentioned wanting to be number one. He glanced down at Yu Baisu's battered feet and finally softened.
"Alright, this is your first time too. I'll have the doctor come over and put some medicine on your foot later. After you're better, go and apologize to Yunzhi properly. Yunzhi is kind-hearted and will definitely not make things difficult for you."
As Ye Chengyan spoke, he released her feet. When he mentioned Yunzhi, he couldn't help but curl his lips, a strange emotion swirling in his eyes.
Before Yu Baisu could even breathe a sigh of relief, she heard Ye Chengyan tell her to apologize to Yunzhi. A flash of resentment crossed her eyes, and she was so angry that she almost ground her teeth to powder.
Who does Yunzhi think she is, to deserve an apology from her?
Originally, she was not supposed to be disfigured. She had calculated it perfectly. At that angle, she would definitely fall on Yunzhi, so there would be someone to cushion her fall. She couldn't fall too hard. In the end, regardless of whether Yunzhi was injured or not, she could step on her to get first place.
But that bitch actually avoided it.
She definitely did it on purpose!
Yu Baisu hated Yunzhi to the core, but for now, she dared not contradict Ye Chengyan and could only obediently nod. However, when she looked up and saw the unyielding tenderness in Ye Chengyan's eyes, she felt a sense of crisis.
Could the banquet at night possibly be held with Yunzhi...?
No, not possible.
Under the covers, Yu Baisu gripped her thigh tightly with one hand, forcing a smile.
“Ayan, I’ll listen to you. I’ll apologize to Miss Yun. By the way, Ayan, it seems that Auntie will be back in a few days. Auntie’s idea is… to bring Xiaoze back to the old house to stay for a while.”
Ye Chengyan's attention was successfully diverted.
He frowned, thinking about the few phone calls he hadn't received that day, and then about the strange and shady characters in the old house. His brows furrowed with annoyance. "I'll talk to her."
There's no way he'd let Xiaoze go back to the old house.
Yu Baisu didn't say anything. She placed one hand on her belly, as if she had made up her mind.
If she were pregnant with Ye Chengyan's child, she wouldn't be in such a passive position.
On the other side, Cheng Shuyan had just returned to the old house with Amy when he was interrogated by the old man. In the end, the old man urged Cheng Shuyan to bring Yunzhi back, both openly and subtly.
Cheng Shuyan was so annoyed that he finally made up an excuse to go back to the company, which made the old man furious.
For the next week, Yunzhi stayed at home to recover from her injury.
That day, just as Yunzhi was preparing to take the interior designer to tour her newly purchased office building and plan the upcoming decoration style.
Yunzhi suddenly received a call from Ye Chengyan, informing her that Ye Chengyan was bringing Yu Baisu over to apologize to her. Originally intending to refuse Ye Chengyan's request to visit, she changed her mind.
"Of course I have time now."
"Okay, we'll be there in half an hour."
After Ye Chengyan finished speaking, he hung up the phone. Yunzhi, who was originally going to tell him her exact address, was stunned for a moment when she heard the busy tone on the other end of the phone, but she quickly realized what was going on.
Ye Chengyan knew where she lived.
As the CEO of the prestigious Ye Group, Ye Chengyan could easily investigate anything he wanted. He should have already discovered the relationship between her, Amy, and Cheng Shuyan, and even her identity.
The thought of Yu Baisu apologizing to her later made Yunzhi feel great.
"Miss, you seem to be in a very good mood today," Wang Ma said, watching Yunzhi humming a tune while looking at a magazine.
Yunzhi hummed in agreement and nodded.
Is there anything more gratifying than someone she dislikes coming to apologize and admit their mistake in person?
“Miss, Madam called yesterday and said that the young master will be back in a few days. Because it was so late, she was afraid you would fall asleep, so she asked me to tell you.”
"Brother is coming back? How is his injury?" Yunzhi was stunned for a moment, then stood up abruptly, the magazine on her lap slipping to the ground.
She was both surprised and delighted, but mostly worried.
Whether in her previous life or the one before that, Yunzhi had weak family ties and no relatives. Even in her previous life, when she married Ye Chengyan and gave birth to Ye Ze, she still had no sense of belonging.
She didn't know how to get along with her blood relatives and was afraid of messing things up.
