“Ma,” Anna looked up timidly. “I still need Fang Xi to help me pull some strings!”

Xi Yue waved her hand nonchalantly and replied, “Those are just minor issues. We have to set a direction and goal first, and then we can study the specific implementing methods, don’t you think so? Zhu Ping?”

Zhu Ping nodded with a smile. “Ma, you’re brilliant!”

Xi Yue looked at these children she’d raised and sighed, “You guys can’t just think about your own feelings right now. You also have to weigh the pros and cons. After all, our Zhu family are depending on you guys to make a comeback!”

Her stepchildren all quickly expressed their determination.

“Don’t worry, Ma.”

“Got it, Ma.”

Xi Yue smiled. It wasn’t until she coaxed everyone into leaving that she sat down on the sofa tiredly and closed her eyes to rest for a moment. Finally, she fought her exhaustion back, got up, and took out her phone to dial that familiar number.

“Hello, may I know who is looking for Miss Fang Xi?” A sweet voice sounded on the other end.

“Her mother!” Xi Yue answered testily.

The other party paused for a moment, but her voice was still sweet and level when she asked, “May I know what business you have with Miss Fang Xi? She’s in a meeting and can’t answer the phone now.”

“Who are you trying to fool here?” Xi Yue tried her best to suppress her anger. “She just finished her wedding a few days ago and she’s already at work? She’s the Ye family’s young mistress! I’m sure you can use that brain of yours to think up a better excuse for her!”

“I’m sorry, Ma’am, but Miss Fang Xi came to work the day after the wedding.” The other party’s words made Xi Yue choke.

Xi Yue took a deep breath to calm herself down. She put on a gentle and charming voice to say, “Okay, then please tell her that if she doesn’t call me back today, I’ll go to her company tomorrow morning to look for her. It’s Yun Innovations Entertainment, isn’t it? It’s easy to find such a famous company! She knows my temper very well. She won’t have much of a reputation left if I throw a tantrum!”

Xi Yue hung up without waiting for the other party to speak. ‘That wretched girl!’ she silently fumed. ‘Always so quick to such brattish anger and pulling long faces! Her temper and attitude are all because me and Fang Xi’s unreliable father let her do as she pleased!’

When Yun Nan and Fang Xi left the meeting room hand in hand, almost everyone had left. The assistant timidly handed Fang Xi’s phone to her and reported the contents of important phone calls before finally mentioning Xi Yue.

Fang Xi’s face instantly darkened. Xi Yue’s threat was intolerable to her. Looking at her expression, Yun Nan asked, “Do you want to talk to her?”

Fang Xi snorted. “She just wants me to meet her so she can make her conditions. After all, she didn’t dare to act rashly back then with Mr. Mo pressuring her on the day of the wedding. However, how can she be willing to quit when she hasn’t achieved her goal? I was wondering why she hadn’t come to look for me yet, and look, now she has.”

“What exactly happened?” Yun Nan couldn’t help but ask. “You didn’t invite her to the wedding, did you? I thought you couldn’t contact her. So why did she suddenly show up? And with a favor to ask of you, too, it seems.”

As the two of them talked, they arrived at ‘Creative Yun.’ When the coffee shop’s owner, Miss Wang, saw them, she waved her hand before they could say anything and told them, “Go find yourselves a seat. Your usual, I presume? I’ll send it to you guys immediately!”

Fang Xi found a seat and sat down before saying, “Even Miss Wang knows my preferences, but my own mother doesn’t. I don’t need anyone else to tell me whether she sincerely cares about or not when it’s very clear she doesn’t.”

Yun Nan consoled her: “Miss Wang knows your preferences because, one, she’s warm and kind, and two, you’re her customer. You can’t compare her to your mother.”

Fang Xi pursed her lips. The waiter brought their drinks and snacks over. Fang Xi thanked him and took a big sip of her coffee, while Yun Nan unhurriedly waited for her to calm down.

“Did you notice the group of young people with my mother that day?” Fang Xi asked.

Yun Nan nodded. “Yeah, that group of handsome men and pretty women. They’re all quite eye-catching, but they don’t look similar to you at all.”

Fang Xi huffed, “Boy am I glad about that! I’m forever grateful my parents didn’t give me a half-brother or -sister on top of everything.”

She went on to explain, “They’re all my mother’s stepsons and stepdaughters. They are the children of the head of the Zhu family and his previous wives. They don’t all have the same birth mother, but they like my mother… because she’s a great stepmother!”

Fang Xi’s tone was dry as she recounted, “In order to marry Mr. Zhu, she first fawned over his children. It was through them that she successfully advanced and became the Zhu family’s mistress.”

Fang Xi exhaled softly. “Back then, she chose to leave me on my own in order to take good care of her stepchildren. She gave me a sum of money and sent me away. She said that our fate as mother and daughter had ended and told me to go look for my father and forget about her.”

“Back in my most difficult times, I also wanted to draw some warmth from my mother, but…”
