Daddy! Come Home for Dinner! - Chapter 485: Useless Teammate
Shi Jiumei said, "I found out."
Ye Ning’s face immediately darkened, "You’re investigating us?"
Xu Huizhen’s expression suddenly changed, and she quickly took Ye Ning’s side.
Why hadn’t she thought of it earlier?
She didn’t even ask a few more questions before letting Shi Jiumei in.
"You actually investigated us!" Xu Huizhen said angrily, "Leave! Our family doesn’t welcome you!"
With that, she was about to go forward and drive Shi Jiumei out.
"Mom, wait a minute." Ye Ning quickly stopped Xu Huizhen.
Suddenly feeling a bit exhausted.
Could Xu Huizhen stop holding her back and disrupting her pace?
Ye Ning had originally planned to lead Shi Jiumei by the nose, maintaining the initiative.
But hadn’t expected Xu Huizhen to pull this stunt.
From the moment Ye Ning actively stopped Xu Huizhen, that initiative was already lost.
Ye Ning took a deep breath, suppressing her anger towards Xu Huizhen, and coldly said to Shi Jiumei, "Why are you investigating us?"
"Of course, it’s because of the grudge with Ye Fei," Shi Jiumei said.
"Because of Ye Fei, I lost many jobs," Shi Jiumei said, "So, I investigated Ye Fei, not directly you all."
"When investigating Ye Fei, I found that her family is in Ye City," Shi Jiumei said. "She’s alone in B City and has never contacted Ye City. I thought there must be something here, so I came to find out."
"It was presumptuous of me to come, and I didn’t investigate you on purpose. I just thought maybe you wanted to know some things about Ye Fei?"
Shi Jiumei smiled and said, "I’m very sincere, given that I have a grudge with Ye Fei, you should believe me."
"Do you think our relationship with Ye Fei isn’t good?" Ye Ning retorted.
"To be honest, yes, that is what I think. Because I came with sincerity, I’m sharing everything I thought with you, without hiding anything."
"I guess that you don’t have a good relationship with Ye Fei. Ye Fei has been alone in B City for five years, if your relationship was close, how could she never contact you?"
"I just don’t know if my guess is correct or not. To verify my hypothesis, I came presumptuously." Following this, Shi Jiumei employed a strategic retreat, "If I guessed wrong, and you don’t welcome me, then I’ll leave."
After speaking, Shi Jiumei nodded to them and was about to leave.
"Hey, wait a minute!" Xu Huizhen hastily called after Shi Jiumei.
Ye Ning didn’t have time to stop her, nearly losing her temper at Xu Huizhen on the spot.
Never seen anyone so adept at holding someone back!
"We don’t have a grudge with Ye Fei," this time it was Ye Dezhang who spoke, "We’re all family, how could there be a grudge, you guessed wrong."
"Is that so?" Shi Jiumei looked at Ye Dezhang, then at Ye Ning and Xu Huizhen, and understood.
Ye Dezhang probably genuinely cared for Ye Fei.
But Xu Huizhen and Ye Ning might not be the same.
Shi Jiumei saw this but didn’t say it.
Then she heard Ye Dezhang say, "Do you really know a lot about Ye Fei?"
"Although Ye Fei and I are not on good terms, and she even caused me to lose my job, we could be considered enemies. But there is a saying that the one who knows you best is your enemy," Shi Jiumei said, "So, yes, I know many things about Ye Fei."
Ye Dezhang had watched the replay of the previous competition and naturally knew about the discord between Shi Jiumei and Ye Fei.
However, he didn’t use the internet, so he didn’t know about their earlier conflict.
