Without waiting for him to speak, Ye Ziyu took the cold medicine and prepared it, then handed it to him, "A little preventative measure."
Di Mingjue took it and downed it in one gulp.
He wouldn't necessarily listen to what others said, but Ye Ziyu was different. Even if the cup contained poison, he would swallow it directly without blinking.
"You shouldn't go to the company today. Rest at home for a day," Ye Ziyu placed the cup on the coffee table.
There were no important matters at the company, so not going would have no impact.
Di Mingjue pondered, "What about you?"
Ye Yubin had been sent abroad, and Ye Jiaxu, as an accomplice, was arranged to manage a branch company. In the Ye Corporation, besides Ye Shaoting, there was only Ye Ziyu.
"I have to go to the company later. I need to investigate the proposal matter," Ye Ziyu didn't believe that Ye Yubin acted alone. The employees around her were all arranged by Ye Yubin, so someone must have secretly leaked the proposal's content to him.
"Then I'll go to the company too," Di Mingjue stood up from the chair.
Ye Yubin was sent away because of her, and many people around blamed her. Fearing she might be targeted, Di Mingjue wanted to stay by her side at all times.
After he finished speaking, he changed his clothes and went downstairs to drive the car to the entrance, holding the car keys.
...
Ye Corporation.
Employees greeted Ye Ziyu. As soon as she walked away, they gathered to discuss her.
Rumors spread that she deliberately pushed Ye Jiaxu and Ye Yubin out of the company to seize control. Her image transformed from youthful and beautiful to ruthless and cunning.
Upon returning to the office, Ye Chenhan immediately rushed to her, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine," Ye Ziyu took off her handbag from her shoulder.
Ye Chenhan looked her up and down, then nudged his face towards her, "Haven't you heard any gossip?"
After taking off her coat and placing her belongings aside, Ye Ziyu pulled out a chair, "I know. It's just that those employees are saying behind my back that I'm manipulative and forced Ye Yubin to leave."
His face flushed, Ye Chenhan felt ashamed. He had arrived at the company earlier and, after hearing the comments, had specifically warned employees not to gossip within the company. However, with so many people, it was hard to control their whispers.
Ye Ziyu opened her laptop. When she didn't hear Ye Chenhan's voice, she deliberately looked up, "It's okay, don't dwell on these things. I don't mind."
Let them say what they want. If she didn't do something, a few words from them wouldn't make it true.
As someone who grew up with Ye Yubin, Ye Chenhan felt a pang of guilt when facing Ye Ziyu after this incident.
Although it wasn't his doing, he felt as if he hadn't protected her well enough.
With guilt almost filling the entire office, Ye Ziyu put down the documents in her hand and looked at him seriously, "You still feel sorry for me?"
"Ziyu, if I had known about what happened that day beforehand, I would have stopped my second brother," Ye Chenhan said earnestly.
He still couldn't understand why they hated Ye Ziyu so much when she was so wonderful.
"I believe you," Ye Ziyu smiled gently. "So don't feel sorry for me. Since coming to the Ye family, most of the family happiness I've felt has come from you. You are an incredibly good brother to me."
So good that she regretted not returning to the Ye family sooner.
As for Ye Yubin's actions, she could understand. They had been groomed as heirs since childhood. Her sudden appearance made him feel threatened.
Ultimately, greed had taken control of his mind, leading him down a path of one mistake after another.
After a sincere exchange of hearts, Ye Ziyu secured a small place in Ye Chenhan's heart. He was determined to protect her from any further grievances from the bottom of his heart.
