Even the tycoons of wealthy families kneel down; the real heiress is the matriarch.

Ye Yixue still rushed to the police station, paid bail, and picked up Dong Suying.

They had just met that morning, but Dong Suying seemed to have aged ten years in a single day.

Her hair was messy, her eyes were filled with resentment, and she didn't give Ye Yixue a friendly look.

"I called you guys a long time ago, why didn't either of you answer? You made me stay inside all day!"

Ye Yixue had no choice but to explain that her phone was switched off during class and she only saw the missed calls after school when she turned it on.

She then explained on Ye Xiaofeng's behalf, "Dad went on a last-minute business trip abroad and was on a plane the whole time, which is why he didn't answer your call..."

"Alright! Stop talking! What use are you guys if you let me down at the crucial moment?!"

Dong Suying cursed and rubbed her sore legs as she got into the car.

She wasn't targeting Ye Yixue, but everyone.

After being locked up for a day, she's now annoyed by everyone, even swearing at passing dogs.

Ye Yixue didn't take it to heart at all.

It wasn't that she was magnanimous, but rather that she simply didn't have any real feelings for Dong Suying.

So no matter how much Dong Suying scolded her, she didn't talk back, but just sat quietly to the side.

Fortunately, Dong Suying soon got tired of yelling. She hadn't eaten all day, and the police station only had bread, which she didn't want to eat at all... Now she was starving and just wanted to go back home as soon as possible to eat the meal prepared by her family's five-star chef.

The mother and daughter returned home in silence, only to see many workers carrying things out.

"What are you doing? Who gave you permission to touch anything in the house?"

Dong Suying dragged her tired body forward to stop them, only to learn that the Ye Group had actually gone bankrupt.

The things they were moving out were to offset the company's losses on paper.

"How could I be bankrupt... Everything was fine this morning... Stop! Don't move anything! None of you are allowed to touch my things, put them back right now!"

Dong Suying screamed and tried to stop them.

But after they stopped one, another brought out even more valuable items.

Ye Yixue was so shocked that she stood there for a long time without reacting.

It wasn't until she saw her most expensive set of jewelry carelessly tossed into a basket, ready to be taken away, that she suddenly realized what was happening and rushed over, shouting, "This is mine! Give it back!"

The two started pushing and shoving each other.

But Ye Yixue was no match for the porters and was quickly pushed to the ground.

"Miss Yixue, are you alright?"

Ye Yixue looked up and saw it was Butler Ye.

But he was wearing loungewear instead of his usual butler uniform.

Ignoring all this, Ye Yixue stood up with the help of the housekeeper and anxiously asked, "Housekeeper Ye, what exactly happened? Why did they say the family went bankrupt? Have you told Dad about this?"

Butler Ye quietly slipped a gold bar into his pocket and said, "Miss Yixue, they're right, the family has indeed gone bankrupt. I've confirmed it with the master. Not only the house, but the company too. There are people everywhere taking things away and seizing assets... You should hurry up and pack up what you can and find a place to stay."

Ye Yixue's eyes widened.

"What do you mean by 'finding a place to stay'?"

"Because the house is about to be seized."

"That's impossible... I called my dad an hour ago, and he didn't say anything to me on the phone, he just told me to pick up my mom... Butler Ye, don't joke like that."

Ye Yixue was certain that Butler Ye was joking, but her mind was already in turmoil.

She knew very well that Butler Ye wouldn't dare to make such a joke.

"It's true, I'm not joking... We've already received our salaries for this month and are planning to leave. You and your wife... please take care."

Without further delay, fearing that the gold bars and other valuables he had stolen would be discovered, Butler Ye pried open Ye Yixue's hand that was holding onto his clothes and hurriedly dragged his suitcase away.

"Butler Ye! Wait a minute..."

Ye Yixue tried to chase after him, but in the blink of an eye, Butler Ye had disappeared without a trace.

She had no choice but to go to Dong Suying.

Just then, Dong Suying was on the phone with Ye Xiaofeng.

However, after making two consecutive calls, the mechanical female voice said that the other party was already on another call.

"Calling" could mean that you are actually on a call, or it could mean that your call has been rejected.

Just then, Ye Yixue walked over, and she grabbed Ye Yixue's hand.

"Call your dad! Quickly!"

Ye Yixue was a beat slow to react before taking out her phone.

Dong Suying couldn't wait any longer, so she snatched Ye Yixue's phone and dialed Ye Xiaofeng's number.

This time it wasn't a mechanical female voice, but Ye Xiaofeng's voice.

"Yixue..."

"Ye Xiaofeng! It's me! What's going on? Where are you? Why did they say the company went bankrupt? Why aren't you answering my calls?"

At this moment, she clearly understood what "busy" meant on the phone.

Ye Xiaofeng deliberately ignored her calls.

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and then Ye Xiaofeng's voice came through two seconds later.

"Since it was you who made the call, I won't bother Yixue to tell you."

Only after hearing Ye Xiaofeng's words did the mother and daughter, who were completely bewildered, learn what had happened.

It turned out that because Dong Suying forcibly entered the Pei Group to smear Black Su and caused trouble in the company lobby, the Pei Group directly issued an industry blacklist against the Ye Group.

From now on, no company will cooperate with the Yip family.

Knowing he couldn't defeat the Pei family and that his company would go bankrupt sooner or later, Ye Xiaofeng decided to file for bankruptcy himself and flee abroad with the company's money.

Most of the items that were taken away were either from partner companies that learned he had absconded and applied to the court to take the items as debt repayment, or from employees who hadn't received their wages and took items of equivalent value from the company and their homes.

Moreover, Ye Xiaofeng also filed for divorce from Dong Suying.

Dong Suying screamed frantically, "Bastard! You can't just abandon me like this! It was because of me that you are where you are today, you beast... I won't allow you to leave me!"

Ye Xiaofeng's voice was cold: "This is all the result of your own actions. You did such a ridiculous thing without thinking, harming your whole family and yourself. You can't blame me."

"You bastard! You beast! You're worse than a pig or a dog... You'll die a horrible death!"

"You'll starve to death before I die a horrible death... Of course, if you obediently divorce me, I'll also give you a divorce settlement."

"You're dreaming! You'll never get rid of me, not even in death!"

"Then it's up to you. You chose it yourself."

"You bastard! You bastard!"

Dong Suying cursed loudly, while simultaneously feeling deep regret.

She went to the Pei Group on a whim and never expected that something like this would happen, let alone so quickly.

Seeing that Dong Suying's insults were getting increasingly offensive, Ye Yixue, who was standing nearby, was afraid that Ye Xiaofeng would hang up the phone, so she quickly snatched the phone back.

"Dad, you can't abandon me and Mom..."

"Yixue, don't worry, I won't abandon you. After your college entrance exam, I'll find a way to send someone to pick you up."

Ye Yixue's expression changed slightly.

Ye Xiaofeng didn't abandon her...

Overjoyed, she dared not look at Dong Suying and could only force herself to say, "You can't abandon Mom, what will she do alone..."

"Alright, focus on your college entrance exam. It starts in half a month."

After Ye Xiaofeng finished speaking, he hung up the phone immediately.

"Ye Xiaofeng! Ye Xiao..."

Dong Suying tried to grab the phone, but Ye Xiaofeng had already hung up.

She stood there for a while, acting crazy, trying to stop the people moving things.

Ye Yixue couldn't stand it and stepped forward to comfort her.

"Mom, calm down. The most important thing right now is..."

"Shut up!" Dong Suying raised her hand and slapped Ye Yixue hard across the face. "Of course you can stay calm. That beast didn't abandon you! He'll come for you! Of course you can talk like that without any worries! But what about me? What am I supposed to do?"

Ye Yixue covered her face, wanting to just leave like that.

But a plan formed in her mind, which prevented her from turning away on the spot. Instead, she continued to comfort Dong Suying.

"Mom, you're my mom. Even if Dad abandons you, I won't. I'll take you with me..."

"That sounds nice, but who knows if you're telling the truth or not..."

"Of course it's true. I remember all the time and effort you've put into raising me over the years. Mom, don't worry, I will definitely make sure you can have a good life again."

Dong Suying felt slightly relieved, and the hatred in her eyes when she looked at Ye Yixue was no longer as strong as before.

By this time, the house had been almost completely emptied.

The mother and daughter entered the empty house and couldn't even find a chair to sit on.

Ye Yixue somehow found a plastic chair, and Dong Suying finally had a place to sit.

"Mom, I noticed they haven't touched anything in the kitchen. You must be hungry. I'll go see if there's any food I can cook for you."

Dong Suying forced a smile: "Luckily, you still have some conscience... Just make me a simple bowl of noodles, no need to go to too much trouble."

"Okay, Mom, just a moment, I'll be right there."

As soon as Ye Yixue entered the kitchen, the smile on her face immediately turned cold, replaced by a gloomy expression.

She had just secretly checked and found that Ye Xiaofeng had transferred some money to her phone. She could easily abandon Dong Suying and use the money to live comfortably for the rest of the next two weeks.

But no.

She still has Dong Suying by her side; she's very useful.

She used Dong Suying to deal with Bai Su...

Although she was about to leave mainland China, she wouldn't be happy abroad if she didn't avenge Bai Su.

She won't be satisfied until she gets her revenge!

……

"Achoo!"

Bai Su suddenly sneezed.

Fortunately, everyone had almost finished eating.

Cheng Sihai asked with concern, "Master, are you suffering from a cold?"

"No, my nose is just a little itchy, it's nothing serious."

As she spoke, she turned to Cheng Yizhou and said, "No matter the final result, the knowledge you gained during your preparation is yours. If you really don't pass, you can always repeat a year. You are very talented; if you study hard for another year, the doors of Imperial University will surely open for you."

Cheng Yizhou nodded.

He has a good attitude; if he passes the exam, great; if not, he can try again next year.

Now, he has come to love the feeling of solving one problem after another.

So even if he had to repeat a year, it wouldn't be a difficult thing for him.
