Jiang Siyou glanced at Ye Xingbei and quickly averted her gaze.
Gu Junzhu was next to Ye Xingbei, so she didn’t dare to provoke her.
Yet, her heart was full of pride, her chin held high.
She was now Xie Jinfei’s woman!
Xie Jinfei had promised to take responsibility for her.
In the future, she would be the second young madam of the Xie family, what was there for her to fear from Ye Xingbei?
She felt she didn’t need to bow and scrape in front of Ye Xingbei, so she pretended not to see her.
Instead, it was Jiang Lingyu who greeted Ye Xingbei warmly, “Beibei sis, you’re here for dinner too?”
Ye Xingbei glanced at Jiang Lingyu in surprise.
Back then, she moved into the Jiang Family’s home at the age of fifteen and left at sixteen.
In that year, Jiang Lingyu teamed up with Jiang Siyou to bully her frequently.
Now that she had returned as the Director of Star Palace, with contract of the two in her hand, Jiang Lingyu and Jiang Siyou showed the utmost respect and fear, terrified that she would bring up past grievances and seek revenge on them.
But tonight, Jiang Lingyu was surprisingly greeting her with confidence, a smug look on her face, as if she had nothing to fear.
Ye Xingbei’s eyes deepened.
She wondered what new backing these two sisters had found and why they had started taking her lightly.
Ye Xingbei sneered in her heart.
She wondered who could be so blind as to fancy these two stupid, shallow and vicious sisters.
She simply looked at Jiang Lingyu without saying anything.
Jiang Lingyu didn’t seem to mind her silence, she gave her a gentle smile, appearing obedient and demure, like a fine lady.
But Ye Xingbei knew how cold-hearted and despicable she was deep inside.
When she lived in the Jiang Family’s home, these two sisters conspired to frame and harm her without any provocation, directed the house servants to bully her and spare no effort to tarnish her image.
In the winter, they would pour cold water onto her bed; in the summer, they would cut up her only school uniform, during school sports events, they would put shattered glass in her shoes.
There were countless such incidents.
Although the Jiang Family was one an affluent family in Jiang City and had twenty to thirty servants, the life she led there was even worse than the time when she was exploited and mistreated in Qingshui Town by her aunt and uncle.
At least then, her aunt and uncle just mistreated her and exploited her as child labour, but had never insulted her reputation or trampled on her dignity.
However, Jiang Siyou and Jiang Lingyu strived to ruin her reputation, damage her self-confidence, and trample her self-respect.
Looking at Jiang Lingyu with her blooming smile, she felt no affection for her whatsoever.
Jiang Siyou, watching Jiang Lingyu and Ye Xingbei chatting amicably, instantly calmed down.
Although the Director of Star Palace was nothing compared to the Second Young Master of Xie family, Ye Xingbei was still Gu Junzhu’s wife!
Even if she became the Second Young Madam of Xie family, But as long as she has Gu Junzhu’s backing, she will have to behave herself and be submissive under Ye Xingbei!
She instantly regretted for acting too complacently earlier and hastily tried to salvage the situation. She also gave a cordial smile to Ye Xingbei, “Beibei, what a coincidence, we must have fate!”
Ye Xingbei threw her a glance and gave a cold chuckle, “Indeed, it’s fate. After all, there are so many entertainment companies in the world, how did you two happen to become my artists?”
Jiang Siyou’s cordial smile hung frozen on her face, unable to maintain it.
With a ‘ding’, the elevator stopped, and the doors opened to each side.
Ye Xingbei, holding her son’s small hand, walked out of the elevator without looking sideways.
Jiang Siyou stared at her retreating figure, her eyes filled with blood, as if she wanted to eat her alive..
