Chapter 259 Looking for trouble
Ye Xi thought they were already very late, but she didn't expect that there were people who came even later than them. It seemed that many people were just rushing to catch the newcomers as Fu Linchuan said. After all, most of those who could come here were the top dignitaries in Yuncheng, and their time was very precious. This made her feel relieved.

She looked at the large number of empty seats that had not yet been filled. It was not yet time for the wedding to start, and most of the people who had already arrived were socializing, chatting in groups of three or four with glasses of wine in hand.

She sent a message to the Ye family, saying that she had arrived and told them her location. Ye Liuxi said he would come to find her, so she took a glass of wine, found a seat and waited.

"Hey, isn't this the eldest daughter of the Ye family?" A shrill female voice sounded behind her. Ye Xi looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young woman in a champagne-colored dress appearing behind her. She had delicate makeup and a look of contempt on her face. "Why are you alone?"

Jiang Yixuan stood beside her in a black suit. The moment he saw Ye Xi, his eyes flashed with surprise. After not seeing her for a few days, she seemed to be more beautiful.

Ye Xi took a look at the person she was holding, guessed the identity of the person, and replied lightly: "Half a person is not appropriate."

"You" Jin Qian choked, then she saw the person beside her and held her tighter, "So what if you are good at talking? You are still a piece of trash that no one wants."

She said proudly, "You probably don't know yet, but Yixuan and I are getting engaged. It's hard for you to shamelessly lick him for so long, and now you're kicked away like a dog."

Ye Xi had no memories, and she didn't know why Jin Qian had such strong malice towards her. However, she was not one to be bullied. No matter what the cause and effect was, she would take revenge on the spot.

She pretended to be shocked and said, "Really? I really didn't know that."

Then he turned to Jiang Yixuan and said, "By the way, Liu Xi said that you were waiting for me downstairs of Xingyue Tower the day before. I thought..."

As soon as these words came out, the expression on Jin Qian's face suddenly changed. She looked at Jiang Yixuan suspiciously, as if asking if this was true.

Jiang Yixuan was also panicked for a moment. He never thought that Ye Xi would tell this matter in front of Jin Qian.

But as the male protagonist, how could he not be able to calm down in such a situation? After a moment, he regained his composure.

"That day, I just came to you to talk it out, to tell you about my engagement with Qianqian, so that you would give up and stop bothering me. But you said you couldn't get away for the time being, and asked me to wait for you downstairs for a while. I didn't expect that I would wait for a whole day. I thought you were deliberately being irritating, and thought that I was sorry for you, so I didn't leave. But I didn't expect you to slander my innocence in this matter."

He spoke righteously, Jin Qian accepted his statement and turned to look at Ye Xi.

What a reversal of right and wrong, Ye Xi smiled and said: "Really? But I didn't go to the company that day, I don't know how I told you to wait for me?"

Jiang Yixuan was shocked. He had waited for a long time that day and thought that Ye Xi was avoiding him on purpose. He didn't expect that she didn't go that day at all.

"Of course you sent me a message."

"Really?" Ye Xi pressed on. "Can you show me the chat history? If it's true, I might need to find someone to check my phone system to see if it was hacked."

"I" Jiang Yixuan didn't expect Ye Xi to be so difficult now, even though she was so sweet and gentle just two days ago. Seeing that Jin Qian's expression was getting more and more wrong, Jiang Yixuan could only bite the bullet and make up for it: "I didn't bring the same phone as last time, so there is no synchronized chat history. If you really want to see it, I'll show it to you next time."

Ye Xi curled her lips and smiled dazzlingly.

Jin Qian knew that she came here with Jiang Yixuan today, and if Ye Xi got the upper hand, it would be a slap in her face. So even if she had some doubts about Jiang Yixuan in her heart, she had to stand on his side at this moment.

"You've said so much, are you trying to say that Yixuan has feelings for you? Wake up, he's getting engaged to me, don't be like a mad dog that jumps on bones. Can't you live without a man?" After saying this, she covered her mouth exaggeratedly, "Oh, I almost forgot, you really are dying for Yixuan."

Ye Xi stopped smiling and raised a light smile: "Shouldn't I be the one asking you this? I didn't expect Miss Jin to have such a wide range of tastes that she even wants the ones I left behind."

Jin Qian was irritated, but suppressed her anger: "Don't make excuses for yourself. Everyone knows that you love Yixuan to death. You licked him for a year, but he ignored you. Now that he's dumped, you're still thinking about putting some gold on your face?"

"Don't you know?" Ye Xi shook his wine glass casually, "The announcement of breaking off the engagement was issued by the Ye family?"

Jin Qian had suspected this before, but Jiang Yixuan explained the reason to her at that time.

"You have brought shame to the Ye family. It seems that you two can't be together. In order to save face, the Ye family issued a statement to cancel the engagement. Do you think I don't know the inside story?"

"Jiang Yixuan told you this, right?" Ye Xi recalled something interesting. "Did he tell you that he offered me half of Jiang's shares in order to get me to agree to the marriage proposal? And to prove his feelings, he wrote that it was a voluntary gift."

This matter was deliberately suppressed by Jiang Yixuan at first. Although it was later exposed by Ye Xi at the shareholders' meeting, Jiang Yixuan was still the one who had the final say in the Jiang family. He suppressed the news and it never spread out in the end.

Jin Qian's expression finally changed. She turned to look at Jiang Yixuan, the anger and questioning in her eyes almost bursting out on the spot.

"Is what she said true?"

Ye Xi added fuel to the fire and said, "If Miss Jin doesn't believe me, I can show you the contract. I still have those shares."

"I didn't ask you!" Jin Qian yelled unhappily, then looked at Jiang Yixuan, waiting for his answer.

Jiang Yixuan secretly clenched his fists. He went to see Ye Xi that day, firstly to see if there was any room for this marriage to turn around, after all, no one else could give such a generous dowry to the Ye family. Secondly, if it couldn't turn around, he would definitely take back the half of the shares.

Unexpectedly, he asked why Ye Xi had been avoiding her and refused to meet her. It turned out that he had no intention of returning the shares. He said that the Ye family didn't care about this and only valued his attitude. He should have known that the Ye family members were all of the same character, and Ye Xi was not a good person!

"Miss Ye," Jiang Yixuan loosened his fist at his side, his expression cold, "Those shares were originally the betrothal gifts given by the Jiang family when the two families got married. Now that the marriage between the Jiang and Ye families has been cancelled, please return them to the Ye family instead of giving them to yourself, leaving you with a reputation of being greedy."
