Although Qian Gumeng was full of dissatisfaction and resentment, she still lowered her voice when she said this. She still remembered the punishment she had received, so she could not be punished again for the same thing.

‘Gumeng, enough.” Ye Xiyuan hid the hatred and jealousy in her eyes and shook her head with a smile. “I don’t want others to hear it and make it more complicated.”

“I’m not afraid of that!”

Although Qian Gumeng said so, she didn’t continue to dwell on this matter.

After all, it was a bitter lesson for her last time. Moreover, even if she dragged Ye Leng’an down, it didn’t seem to be of much benefit to her. She naturally wanted to speak out against injustice for her best friend, but she couldn’t let herself be punished again!

There was a hint of disdain in Ye Xiyuan’s eyes when she saw Qian Gumeng’s cowardness.

“By the way, Xiyuan, didn’t you say that your parents are going to hold a dinner party for you on your birthday?” Qian Gumeng stopped struggling with Ye Leng’an’s matter and changed the topic. “Your birthday is coming up soon. Are you ready?”

“It’s approaching.” Ye Xiyuan said with a smile, “It’s next Friday. There are still a few days left. Luckily, the Mathematical Olympiad training hasn’t started yet.

Otherwise, the two will clash.”

Qian Gumeng held Ye Xiyuan’s hand affectionately and said enviously, “Your parents are so nice to you. They actually want to hold a dinner party for your birthday.”

Even those underage children in wealthy families would not have dinner parties for their birthdays, but it was another story if it came to the 18th birthday. As to a normal 17th birthday like Ye Xiyuan’s, usually, a simple birthday party would be fine.

Of course, there were also some wealthy families who valued their children and would hold birthday banquets for them every year.

“It’s just a little special this time,” Ye Xiyuan explained with a smile. “As you know, I just returned home not long ago. Mom and Dad wanted to introduce me to others this time, so they decided to hold a dinner party.”

“This is great!” Qian Gumeng said excitedly, “This means that your parents cherish you and want everyone to know that you are their daughter! Their holding the dinner party this time means they want to tell everyone that you are the young lady of the Ye family and Ye Lengan is nothing.”

At this point, Qian Gumeng revealed a wicked smile. “Xiyuan, will you invite Ye Leng’an to the party this time?

“Huh?” Ye Xiyuan was a little confused by this sudden question. “Well, it seems like Mom and Dad aren’t planning to invite her. Besides, I don’t think she wants to come either!”

“That’s really a pity.” Qian Gumeng pursed her lips and said regretfully, “If only Ye Leng’an would attend that day! At that time, she will know who is the real daughter of the Ye family. As an imposter, she had shamelessly taken your position for so many years.”

If Ye Leng’an went to the party, it would definitely be especially embarrassing. Unfortunately, she could only imagine these scenes and could not see them with her own eyes.

Ye Xiyuan didn’t show any emotion on her face, but an idea suddenly came to her. She instantly had a feeling of eagerness.

This time, Ye Leng’an didn’t go back to school to check the results. She was very confident in her results, so she did not want to join in the fun. Besides, she didn’t want to be pushed and shoved in a crowd early in the morning. If she had the time, she might as well sleep in at home.

After getting out of bed and walking to the dining room, Ye Leng’an saw that breakfast had already been prepared on the table. She sat down and started eating.

At this moment, a middle-aged woman walked in and looked at Ye Leng’an with a hint of hesitation. She stood at the side and looked as if she had something to say, but she wasn’t sure if she should.

“Auntie Zhuang, if you have something to say, just say it!” Ye Leng’an said directly.

Auntie Zhuang was the helper she hired recently. Usually, she had no problem with cleaning the villa. After all, a dust removal technique could be used. However, eating was indeed a problem for her.

Usually, she was too lazy to cook. Although Huangfu Ruiling would come to feed her from time to time. it was not a good thing to keen counting on others

Besides, she didn’t want to go out often to buy food. Therefore, she decided to hire a helper through the domestic services company.

Her requirements were not strict. She only wanted the helper to clean up once every three or four days and cook three meals a day. Simple requirements but with a high salary, many people wanted to work for her.

She chose Auntie Zhuang among the candidates, not for any other reason, but because of her excellent culinary skills.

Auntie Zhuang looked at Ye Lengan with embarrassment. In the end, she said, “Miss Ye, um, my daughter is on her winter break. She wants to come to visit me. I wonder if she can stay here for a period of time. But don’t worry, I won’t let her disturb you. Is that okay?”

She came from the countryside, and she was really lucky to be able to find such a well-paid job like this. Even ordinary white-collar office workers might not have higher salaries than her. In addition, this job was very easy. She only needed to serve Ye Leng’an alone. Therefore, she attached great importance to this job.

Moreover, her daughter was also studying at a university in the capital, so she could visit her daughter when she was free. Now her daughter did not want to go back on winter break, so she came to her mother for help

“Sure!” Ye Leng i an didn’t really care about this. “But remember, don’t let her enter my alchemy room. There are many precious medicinal herbs there, some of which are priceless.”

The alchemy room was a forbidden area. Nobody, except her, could enter. Even Auntie Zhuang couldn’t go in and clean up.

“I know, I definitely won’t let her in.” Auntie Zhuang did not expect Ye Leng’an to be so easy to talk to. She nodded repeatedly. “Miss Ye, thank you so much.”

Initially, she did not want her daughter to come over. After all, this was someone else’s home. No matter how luxurious it was, it did not belong to them. There would definitely be many inconveniences if she stayed here.

However, she really couldn’t do anything to dissuade her daughter. Moreover, she had reached an agreement with Ye Leng’an that she would not take leave even during the New Year. Therefore, it was good that her daughter could come over and accompany her by her side during the New Year. She would not be so lonely..
