Chapter 2003: You Saw Her, Right?
“No, I just did what I had to do.” The director was embarra.s.sed. He exchanged a glance with Jiang Yao and quickly went to pull her up. However, Ding Xiaomei insisted on kneeling, and no one could pull her up.
“Auntie Jiang, I don’t know when Uncle Lu will come. If I don’t see him later, please thank him for me. If you guys didn’t take me away from the Ye family, I’m not sure where I’d be right now.”
What was Xiao Ding thinking at that time?
Mrs. Ye had slapped him and even wanted to strip him naked in front of everyone; he had wanted to kill everyone in the Ye family.
Xiao Ding did not deny that he had wanted revenge. He wanted to kill the woman who insulted him.
Jiang Yao stayed at the welfare inst.i.tute to have a meal with the Ding family before they left.
Everyone in the Ding family seemed kind, just like Ding Xiaomei.
Xiao Ding had so many friends in the welfare inst.i.tute, and Jiang Yao could tell that the Ding family wanted to bring them home.
However, no one mentioned it because they knew that the Ding family could not afford to raise more children.
They would not be able to feed or nurture those children.
It would be better to let those children remain in the welfare inst.i.tution to continue their studies instead of removing them from there and providing them with the bare minimum to survive.
While they were on the way back to the army base, Jiang Yao ate the fruits that Lu Xingzhi had prepared for her. Then, she asked Big Ke, “Did you see Colonel Ye’s daughter, Ye Li, or something, at the welfare inst.i.tute just now?
“Director Jiang, it’s Ye Xueli.”
Big Ke nodded. “I did see her. When we were at the entrance, she was behind the big pillar. The way she looked at you was not very good. I don’t think she has any good intentions toward you.”
One could usually see through someone’s faked good intentions, especially a pretentious woman like Ye Xueli. She was not comparable to Zhou Hailan, who could deceive others easily.
“You saw her too, right? I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. I only saw her for one second.” Jiang Yao snorted. “Why would such a heartless person be at the welfare inst.i.tute? She must not have felt comfortable there. Xiao
...
Ding and his friends were also uncomfortable.”
Jiang Yao was just talking to herself. She did not expect Big Ke to reply. After all, Big Ke did not even know Ye Xueli as well as Jiang Yao did.
They reached the army base at around 3 P.M. Jiang Yao, Big Ke, and Ah Lu got out of the car. They greeted the soldiers standing guard at the entrance. Suddenly, Jiang Yao’s phone rang, and she picked it up.
“Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law! Have you seen the news? ‘
It was Lu Xiaoxiao. As soon as she picked it up, Lu Xiaoxiao’s excited voice made Jiang Yao laugh.
“What news? I haven’t seen the news today. You seem very excited. Tell me about it.” Lu Xiaoxiao had returned to Jindo City early in the morning the day after the rain had stopped. She had called Jiang Yao about it so that the latter knew where she would be.
The news she mentioned must have been about Jindo City..
