It turned out Jin Yan had always been concerned about this matter. Although she'd participated in it before, she wouldn't get any gratitude in return, but she also didn't want to be misunderstood.

"Miss Jin, about that matter, I think …" Ye Yan Xi furrowed her brows as if she wanted to explain something.

Before she could finish, however, Jin Yan interrupted her. "No matter what you say, the loser is me. You've won. Xiao Yu's heart is with you, so you should be happy right now."

For some reason, Jin Yan didn't feel like she was on TV at all. She felt like something wasn't quite right.

"Miss Jin, I don't want to argue with you. Emotions aren't something that can be controlled by anyone. Moreover, I don't feel like I won. You feel like you've lost." Ye Yan Xi patiently spoke her mind.

To Jin Yan, however, her sincere explanation was flaunting everything she saw. She looked down at her with the air of someone looking down on a victor.

Ye Yan Xi was still young and beautiful, truly in her prime. But she was like a wilting rose. Her youth was no more, and now that one of her legs was basically crippled, she was no longer able to do any work.

As a female diplomat, her identity had already attracted many peculiar gazes of discrimination. Now that it was flawed, how could she continue to stay in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?

At this moment, Jin Yan only had deep loathing and hatred for Ye Yanxi.

She had nothing, and she had everything.

She still remembered that time when Ye Yanxin came to visit her in the hospital. She pretended to be worried and concerned, but the truth was, she didn't know how to laugh at her in her heart.

If she really had such a pure and harmless appearance, why would Xiao Yu have any connections with her? It was mainly because she didn't have any background. But now, it turned out that she was a woman with deep thoughts. Everything he had put on was just a facade, and his wrist was simply amazing.

The Ye Yan Xi in front of him looked innocent and harmless again.

Jin Yan couldn't help but feel an indescribable disgust.

Her hands tightly gripped the armrest as she stared at Ye Yanxi. She was already used to seeing all sorts of scenes, so her expression couldn't be seen. Even though her heart was churning nonstop, she didn't show it.

"Tell me, I was once your idol and I was very much admired, right?" Jin Yan lowered her eyes as she asked.

"Yes, I have always treated you as my idol. The first time, I even asked for your autograph. Do you remember?" Thinking back to the time when she had seen Jin Yan, Ye Yanxi couldn't help but feel excited and happy. At that time, she had been like a little fan worshipping her idol.

At that time, she also thought that Ye Yan Xi was just a simple woman with no reputation.

At that time, he had bumped into her at Xiao Yu's office. Perhaps by then, Xiao Yu would already be infatuated with her.

Thus, when she intentionally or unintentionally asked to be with Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu would bluntly reject her.

Now, not only did she lose her job prospects, she lost her love as well. And all of this was because of this seemingly kind and innocent woman in front of her. She had to admit that her wrist was way above his.

Perhaps at that time, Ye Yanxi had already mocked her in her heart, overestimating her own abilities.

"With your ability, surpassing me is only a matter of time." Jin Yan laughed at herself.

"You praise me too much. I will always follow your example." Ye Yan Xi sincerely said.

However, after hearing Ye Yan Xi's words, her heart was filled with disgust. She said in a strange tone, "With your current ability, you don't need to use me as a role model anymore. Didn't you already achieve your goal?"

Ye Yan Xi frowned, her head was full of fog, "Miss Jin, why do you say that?"

Jin Yan snorted, the emotion in her eyes hard to discern. "Do you really not understand, or do you prefer to pretend to be confused?"

"I don't know what I said wrong? "Miss Jin, please speak clearly."

"I didn't say what you said wrong. It's just humans. Sometimes, don't act too much. You have to be careful of everything, otherwise, you will be exposed very quickly." Jin Yan sipped her coffee.

Ye Yan Xi was completely shocked.

"Miss Jin, I still don't understand what you mean. "Could you please tell me more clearly what I said that was wrong?"

Jin Yan slapped the coffee cup down on the table. Her voice was impatient. "Fine. Since you asked me to tell you so, listen carefully."

Ye Yanxi didn't know what was going on, but she waited for Jin Yan to finish.

"Yu-yu is a very good man, attracting the attention of many women. Of course, there are many people who would put their all into putting their hands on him, you are very young and beautiful, you are also very smart, and your wrist is also very good. Even if I've crippled a leg for him, his heart is still tied to you, I admit defeat." The corner of Jin Yan's mouth twitched, and she forced a smile.

Ye Yan Xi suddenly widened her eyes.

She saw 'disgust' in Jin Yan's eyes, and a flash of hatred.

Therefore, she had always thought that the reason Xiao Yu was with her was because she was shrewd enough to play tricks and intentionally snatch Xiao Yu away from her.

Having heard these accusations from Jin Yan, it wasn't as if Ye Yanxi didn't feel sad or disappointed at all.

She didn't want Jin Yan to misunderstand her, but the truth couldn't be revealed. It was hard for her to make up her mind.

It really made her sad to say such words.

Jin Yan saw the sharp, piercing look on Ye Yan's face, and naturally saw the guilty look on her face. Her eyes turned cold.

"What? Was I right, so I was thinking of a reason to refute?" Jin Yan pressed him harshly.

"I didn't!" Ye Yanxi braced herself to explain, "My relationship with the CEO isn't what you think."

"What else could it be?" Jin Yan snickered. "Maybe you want to tell me that the two of you are in love with each other, a match made in heaven, so you should be together. Or is it that the fate of your past life has already been decided?"

The more she spoke, the more excited Jin Yan became. The spoon in her hand was shaking uncontrollably.

However, could she say that Xiao Yu had set a trap for her from the start and had lured her into it step by step? The fate between them was indeed predestined sixteen years ago.

If she told this to Jin Yan, would she believe it?

However, Jin Yan's cold and distant attitude towards her made her feel even more resentful. If she said it out loud, it would only make her feel as if she were making excuses.

However, his heart was still in a mess when he was misunderstood like this.

Ye Yan Xi bit her lips and remained silent.

To Jin Yan, her silence was proof that someone had found out. She was speechless.

Jin Yan closed her eyes for a moment. When she opened them again, a trace of weariness was present in her eyes. "I didn't want to say this today, but I couldn't resist saying it out loud. If you want to tell Yuanyu, that's fine. Even if he resents me, I don't mind." As she said this, she pushed the wheelchair forward and said, "I still have things to do, so I'll be leaving first. Take care of yourself."

She looked at Jin Yan with disgust and contempt. "Miss Jin, I know I won't make you believe me now, but I still want to say that I never wanted to hurt you in the first place. It's up to you whether you want to believe me or not."

With that, Ye Yan Xi rushed out of the room.

It wasn't that she didn't feel wronged. After leaving the coffee shop, she stood in front of the door. Ye Yan Xi was momentarily at a loss. Her phone's ringtone had pulled her thoughts back.

It was Xiao Yu who had called. As he looked at the name on the screen, he suddenly felt a bit sour and pressed accept.

"Hello." She tried to soften her tone.

"Still in bed. Still not up?" Xiao Yu's tone was deep and light, and there was even a trace of a smile on his face. Ye Yan Xi almost couldn't control himself and wanted to cry.

After a while, he suppressed the grievances in his heart and snorted in anger, "Where have I not woken up yet? Are you the one who likes to be cooped up in bed?"

"Since you haven't slept, where are you?"

"Outside, I made an appointment with Yanyan to go shopping." Ye Yan Xi paused for a moment, then asked again, "What are you doing?"

"I still have a meeting while you're out there enjoying yourself." It sounded as if she were complaining about too much.

Ye Yanxi giggled, "Then you're going to have a good meeting and wait for your salary to be paid."

"So in your eyes, I'm just a person who pays you?" Xiao Yu's tone was somewhat dissatisfied.

"Otherwise, what use do you think you have? "Let me think …" At this moment, Ye Yan Xi suddenly had a joking mood. She pretended to think for a while and said, "Mm, besides this, there doesn't seem to be any other use!"

On the other side of the phone, Xiao Yu seemed to be silent for a while. After that, a dangerous and fierce voice rang out: "Xiao Xi, tonight, I'll let you know what other use I have."

It was like lifting a stone to smash his own foot.

Ye Yan Xi immediately went back on her words, "I was just joking, don't take it seriously."

Xiao Yu, on the other hand, slowly said, "I never joke."

Ye Yanxi felt a burst of discouragement. This was all her fault. It was a pity that she couldn't swallow the words she said. It was too late for regret!

Xiao Yu was a narrow-minded and narrow-minded man. He loved to bear grudges, was narrow-minded, was a bastard, and was a bad guy. Ye Yanxue could only curse at Xiao Yu in her heart to be satisfied with him, but she could only feel discontent in her heart.

Because of Xiao Yu's words, Ye Yanxi didn't bother to talk to him anymore. She just happened to look up and see He Chuyan waving at her from the bus stop across the street, walking towards her.

The gloominess in Ye Yanxi's heart was swept away, and she happily waved her hand towards He Jiyan.

Xiao Yu still hadn't hung up the phone, "Why aren't you talking?"

Ye Yanxi immediately said into the microphone, "Yanyan is here, I won't talk to you anymore."

But as she spoke, she was about to hang up when she suddenly saw a dangerous scene.

Two motorcyclists passed by her, one of them in the back seat staring at her bag.

Seeing that person about to pass by and reach for the bag, Ye Yan Xi wanted to remind He Chu Yan that it was too late, she could only scream out loud.

That person stretched out her hand, but at this moment, She Chuyan pulled the bag out of habit, so that when that person was pulling the bag, She Chuyan fell to the ground and was dragged far away.

The contents of the bag were scattered all over the floor. The man snatched the bag away and realized that there was nothing inside. When he came back to pick it up, he saw that Ye Yan Xi was already there.

When he rushed to her side, he helped her up, "Are you alright Yanyan, are you hurt anywhere?"

After Ye Yan Xi helped her up, she anxiously looked at her body. Because her clothes had been forcefully dragged a few meters away, they were already torn, revealing her bruised skin. She couldn't help but feel some heartache.

As soon as She Chuyan moved, she hissed and gasped, grimacing in pain, "So painful."

Ye Yan Xi packed up all the items on the ground, put them back into her bag, then came over to support her again, "Yan Yan Yan, you have quite a few bruises on your body. Come, let's go to the hospital."

"Sigh, I'm fine with small injuries. I'll just treat them at a nearby clinic."

"How can that be!" Ye Yan Xi immediately insisted, "The weather is like this now, what if there's an inflammation? Also, I don't know if you're injured or not, but it's better if we go to the hospital and check."

In the end, Helian Chuyan couldn't stand Ye Yanxi anymore, so she followed her to the hospital.

After hanging up in the hospital's orthopedics department and taking a film, the result of the examination was only that her wrist was a bit sprained, while the rest of the injuries were only superficial. Later on, the doctor came to treat the wounds and personally heard that everything was fine.

While waiting for She Chuyan to bandage her wound, Ye Yan finally picked up the phone and looked at the time. She realized that it was still the call interface. Xiao Yu's call had not ended yet, indicating that it had been more than an hour.

Ye Yan Xi looked at her phone, held it close to her ear and whispered, "Hello?"

Xiao Yu immediately responded, "I'm here."

Ye Yanxi was a bit surprised that he was still here.

"You've been here all along?"

Although these words were spoken as if she hadn't said them at all, Ye Yanxi was still very shocked.

"Is your friend okay?" Xiao Yu asked.

"Yes." Ye Yan Xi patted her chest with fear still lingering in her heart, "Luckily I didn't injure my muscles and bones. Sigh, I didn't check my date when I left today. I actually met with this matter."

Ye Yan Xi was sitting on a stool outside, holding a delivery from He Chu Yan, which had been sent to her by Auntie Chen.

After opening the envelope, it seemed as if there was a letter inside. It was very light, but when Ye Yanxi opened it, with just a glance, she felt as if all the blood in her body had frozen.
