Save the "white moonlight" first? The scumbag father took the child to the crematorium on

Chapter 202 Mother and son separated

Following Madam Ji's gaze, Ye's mother indeed saw Ye Chengyan sitting alone in a corner, drinking alone. Her hand gripping the railing tightened suddenly, her fingertips turning white from the force.

What a spineless wretch! He's nothing but a woman!

"Ha, the daughter-in-law I've chosen is a million times better than Yunzhi. He'll find out sooner or later what's best for him."

Madam Ji fell silent upon hearing this. She looked her angry friend up and down and for the first time reflected on her own mind. She wondered why her friend didn't seem very smart. Could the daughter-in-law she was talking about, who was a million times better than Yunzhi, be Yu Baisu?

The Yu family was somewhat respectable a decade or so ago, but now they're nothing but a fallen household. Not to mention, she had met the Yu family's child, who was delicate and frail, and whose speech gave people an uncomfortable feeling. How could she compare to Yunzhi?

My friend, what a thick filter you're putting on that kid from the Yu family.

“The child from the Yu family can’t bring much help to the Ye family. On the contrary, Yunzhi is a hot commodity. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. They know their own affairs. Besides, I don’t think Miss Yun is very interested in your son.”

It seems like Ye Chengyan's efforts to promote his business were all one-sided.

Madam Ji's words made Mother Ye's face even uglier.

Even if Yunzhi's identity could help Ye Chengyan and the Ye family, she felt uncomfortable whenever she saw Yunzhi, and the thought of living under the same roof with her made her feel a burning anger.

"Are you my friend and taking the other side's side?"

"I'm just stating the facts, so you won't regret it later."

Mother Night raised her chin slightly, her expression disdainful. "Don't worry, I won't regret it."

"Whether you regret it later or not, don't interfere in Xiaoye and Xiaoyun's affairs anymore. You forced Xiaoye to change his girlfriend. Although Xiaoye may not say anything on the surface, it's hard to guarantee that he won't care in his heart. Be careful that this matter will cause a rift between you and your son." Madam Ji shook her head and advised kindly.

Upon hearing the words "mother and son are estranged," Ye's mother's pupils constricted sharply, and she clenched her teeth.

“He dared to distance himself from me because of a woman! I knew I wasn’t wrong, she’s a troublemaker. Cheng Yan usually only has work on his mind, but now he’s been seduced by a little girl and is neglecting his duties. He’s carrying the burden of more than just his family. No, I have to have a serious talk with him.”

Ye Mu was impulsive and rushed downstairs despite Madam Ji's objections.

Madam Ji stretched her hand out in mid-air, and finally sighed, "What is this all about?"

How come my friend is still so energetic at his age?

She hesitated, glancing in Ye Chengyan's direction, wondering whether she should go down and act as a peacemaker. But then she thought that with so many people below, even if her friend was impulsive, she wouldn't risk her reputation by arguing with the child.

Besides, this was someone else's family matter, and she had already said enough. Getting involved any further might only cause trouble for her. After much deliberation, Madam Ji finally went to do her own thing.

Ye Mu headed straight for Ye Chengyan.

She walked briskly even in heels that were seven or eight centimeters high.

As soon as she approached Ye Chengyan, she smelled a strong odor of alcohol. Ye's mother frowned, covered her nose with one hand, and reprimanded him in a low voice while maintaining her air of authority.

"Chengyan, look at the state you've become! Do you even know why you came to Elder Ji's birthday banquet today? Go outside and sober up. I'll take you to visit Elder Ji later."

Ye Chengyan swayed slightly, looked up at his mother for a long time before recognizing her. He glanced at her, then lowered his head and continued drinking, as if he was only interested in alcohol in the whole world.

The anger in Ye Mu's heart was ignited by his dismissive attitude.

She took a deep breath, deciding not to be foolish enough to argue with Ye Chengyan in public and make a fool of herself in front of others.

Ye Chengyan's mother sat beside him, looking heartbroken, and reached out to move the wine glass in front of him away.

"What? You don't mean you're still resentful towards me, do you? Everything I've done is for your own good. You don't understand my good intentions, but are you going to resent me?"

Ye Chengyan reacted, letting out a soft scoff.

Good intentions? It's just a way for his mother to control him.

However, the person in front of him was his mother, and he couldn't possibly reveal his true thoughts.

"I didn't, Mom." Ye Chengyan lowered his eyes, leaning lazily back in his chair, seemingly uninterested in anything.

The more nonchalant he appeared, the more displeased Ye Mu became, and her spirits suddenly soared.

"You are! You're complaining about me just because I asked you to change your female companion to Xiao Su!"

"Mom, this is Grandpa Ji's birthday banquet, not our Ye family's old residence." Ye Chengyan raised his eyes, his deep black eyes looking straight at his mother.

Mother Ye's expression changed, "Ye Chengyan!"

"Mom, I heard you. I've done what you said. What else do you want me to do? Does it matter to you whether I'm willing or not, or what I think? You'll just do whatever you want, no matter what you want."

Ye Chengyan stood up with one hand in his pocket. He rubbed his fingers together, feeling a bit irritated and wanting to smoke, but he resisted.

Ye Chengyan's hoarse voice was indifferent. He did not use an angry tone to accuse or complain about his mother, but the calmer he was, the more fearful and uneasy she felt.

Ye Chengyan's attitude was like a dull knife, making Ye's mother uncomfortable without giving her a quick end.

"Ye Chengyan, I am your mother!" Ye's mother swayed, whether from anger or fear.

"I know, you are my mother." Ye Chengyan glanced at the two people dancing, his heart feeling as if it had been torn open.

He couldn't help but wonder, if his mother hadn't interfered, would he be the one dancing with Yunzhi now?

He was actually a little jealous of Cheng Shuyan.

If it were six months ago, he certainly wouldn't have believed that he would be jealous of Cheng Shuyan because of a woman.

Yunzhi's attitude made him afraid to step forward.

Even though he knew it was wrong, Ye Chengyan couldn't help but blame his mother for everything.

Ye Chengyan twitched his lips and stood in the shadows. After a moment, he ignored his mother's gentle persuasion, turned around, and walked into the crowd. By the time his mother went to look for him, he was already gone.

Mother Ye stretched her neck and tried to search for a while, unwilling to give up, before finally giving up. In her heart, she blamed Yunzhi for the estrangement between her and Ye Chengyan.

Ye Mu glanced around, a surge of impulse rising within her. She locked onto her target and quickly walked toward Yun Zhi, who had just finished dancing and was about to sit down and rest for a while.

"Zhizhi, I'll take you home in a bit." After the dance, Cheng Shuyan lingered by Yunzhi's side, afraid that another Ji Chen would come.
