"I heard that Miss Ye made things difficult for a girl called Xiao Ling. In the end, that girl suffered grievance and was fired! "Xie Xin revealed the "gossip" that he had heard.

Chu Mo's frown deepened...

Was everything yesterday just an illusion?

She... didn't change?

"Since the butler has taken care of it, there is no need to report this matter to me anymore," Chu Mo said impatiently.

Xie Xin sighed to himself. Indeed, the CEO had an automatic blocking function for bad things about Miss Ye!

The Chu family's old residence...

After Xiao Ling's torment, everyone looked at Ye Jiu as though she was a murderer.

She did not care about Xiao Ling's pitiful background and insisted on driving her out of the Chu family.

However, Ye Jiu was already used to such gossip.

After all, she was happy to design such a drama in the past. It was good to disgust Chu Mo.

In the afternoon, to avoid other people's strange gazes, Ye Jiu took a book to the parasol tree.

This was the only place in her previous life in the Chu family residence that could make her feel safe and secure.

In this life, this place had also become a haven for her to avoid trouble.

Sitting under the shade of the tree and quietly flipping through the book, Ye Jiu soon felt sleepy.

At this moment, she vaguely heard a low sob coming from the other side of the flower bush.

Ye Jiu stood up and looked across the flower bush to the other side. She saw a little girl with two ponytails squatting on the ground and crying.

"Hey! What happened?" Ye Jiu heard the crying and could not help but feel sorry for her.

She was not a busybody, but the girl's figure reminded her of herself...

The little girl did not seem to think that someone would be in the garden at this time, so she could not help but sit on the ground in shock.

Looking at the little girl's face full of tears and her eyes full of shock, Ye Jiu could not help but laugh.

"Don't be afraid! I won't eat you!" Ye Jiu smiled bitterly.

"Miss... Miss Ye!" The little girl called out timidly. She looked both wronged and pitiful.

"Why are you hiding here and crying?" Ye Jiu reached out her hand and wanted to pull the little girl up from the ground.

The little girl was stunned for a moment and quickly supported herself on the ground to stand up.

"I... I..." The little girl stuttered and did not know where to start.

"Tell me your name first." Ye Jiu had never known that she was so patient, but at this moment, she felt that the little girl needed her help.

"My name is Guan Yi," the little girl said in a low voice.

"Guan Yi? This name is so familiar..." Ye Jiu could not help but mutter.

"You've heard of my name?" Guan Yi blinked her eyes, tears still rolling in her eyes. "Guan Nan is my big brother!"

"Ah!" Ye Jiu called out softly, instantly remembering this man who had been badly hurt by her..

Guan Nan was the person Chu Mo arranged to protect Ye Jiu by her side.

As long as Ye Jiu went out, Guan Nan would follow her like a shadow..

To Ye Jiu, Guan Nan's existence was like a human surveillance camera, making her feel very uncomfortable.

Therefore, she had played a trick on Guan Nan several times...

And Guan Nan lost his life in a traffic accident to protect her.

To Ye Jiu, she also owed Guan Nan his life...

"Your big brother is my... Friend!" Ye Jiu said with a smile, "Then can you tell me why you are crying?"

Guan Yi's eyes widened in surprise when she heard that Ye Jiu said that she was friends with her big brother. Her trust in Ye Jiu instantly exploded.

"I want to go to school..." Guan Yi said with a sobbing tone, "But, Mom said that the money at home has to be given to my little brother to go to school..."

The more she said, the more she felt wronged. Guan Yi cried again.

Ye Jiu pulled Guan Yi around the flowers and came to sit under the sycamore tree.

She asked with concern, "Is your family's... financial situation bad?"

"Father has been sick for more than ten years. Mother has been taking care of Father..."Guan Yi said softly.

"Brother has been earning some money in the Chu family for the past two years, but after paying Father's medical fees and living expenses, there isn't much left..." Guan Yi's hands were tightly twisted.

"I graduated from high school this year, so I begged brother to let me work." Guan Yi's voice was low, but one could hear the anticipation in her tone. "I want to earn money for my tuition fees by myself."

"Brother was worried that I would be alone outside, so he asked the butler to arrange a cleaning job for me." Guan Yi said with a smile on his face.

"Then, have you earned enough for your tuition fees?" Ye Jiu could not help but ask when she saw Guan Yi's expression.

Who knew that it would be better if she did not ask...

Guan Yi immediately burst into tears when he asked, "Mom said that the money I earned from working was only enough to pay for my younger brother's school fees!"

"My younger brother is a boy. He can't drop out of school before he finishes high school!"Guan Yi cried even more sadly as she spoke.

Ye Jiu looked at Guan Yi with a helpless expression.

If this scene were to be seen by others, she would probably be charged with another crime...
