The male supporting character was actually myself.

"You have no idea how much Ye Zhong dotes on that illegitimate child ever since Ye Xingluo disappeared!" Yang Yingying pouted and sighed. "Ye Xingchen helped with that, and he knew it all along, but he was secretly on guard. It wasn't as easy as you make it out to be."

"I refuse to believe we can't find a single opportunity!" He fiddled with the storage device in his hand, sneered twice, and said, "He was kicked out to start his own business, right? It's easy to make him desperate."

Don't worry, tell Qingwei to be patient.

If he wants to target such a large prey as the Ye Group, how can he, as a hunter, not have patience?

"Let him be the factory manager in peace. I'll make arrangements for him secretly. With me protecting him, how could a small, run-down factory not succeed? Since Qingwei can't bring himself to kill Ye Xingchen, let's just wear him down slowly."

Yang Yingying hurriedly asked, "What can we do by just waiting it out?"

Ye Zhong definitely wouldn't want to part with his illegitimate child; he'd bring him back to his side eventually. Right now, he's keeping a poor, uncultured vixen at home; what if…”

"You're such a grown man, have you wasted your life?" Wang Daqiao said irritably. "Before, Ye Zhong treated Ye Xingchen like his own eyes, so Qingwei couldn't find an opportunity to make a move."

Now that both of them have been demoted, Ye Xingchen is useless at everything, and Ye Zhong will lose patience with him. As long as there's a chance to kill him, what's there to worry about if I help clean up the mess?

Let Ye Zhong see Qingwei's abilities; both of his own sons have disappeared without a trace, so even if he refuses to let go, it's useless.

If all else fails, find another opportunity to kill him too!

There are plenty of ways to seize control of a group. Just kill everyone else who can inherit the company except you, Mrs. Ye, grab the company seal, forge a 'will,' and Qingwei will be the chairman of the board.

They've forged notes before, and even someone as shrewd as Ye Zhong couldn't tell they were fake.

With me protecting you, is it really worth all this scheming and self-sacrifice for something so simple?

Ye Zhongming openly found a mistress? Then you'd better be careful, lest she get pregnant. If she has another child, you'll have to find a way to kill it.

Hearing him casually say "kill this, kill that," Yang Yingying couldn't help but feel a little scared and dared not respond.

After chatting for a while, she got up and left via the same route.

The little white cat thought for a moment, then carried the camera and followed Wang Daqiao out through another door into the deeper core of the building, where, naturally, a new world opened up before it, a garden full of birdsong and spring blossoms...

Chapter Forty-Three: Going to Celebrate a Birthday~

"Host, hehehe..." It wasn't until the next morning that the little white cat bounced back with dark circles under its eyes, a mischievous grin on its face. "Guess what inside story this soft and cute little kitten filmed?"

Jiang Chen was still helping Ye Xingluo prepare for the launch of the food delivery platform when he heard this. Without even looking up, he asked, "What did you film? The two old lovers met... Did they stage a mixed fight and you filmed it all?"

That can't be posted online; it's considered a bad influence on minors.

"Meow~" The fluffy ball rubbed against his face a few times and chuckled, "There are scenes that can't be described, but it's not Yang Yingying and Wang Daqiao, but... hehehe, host, you'll know when you see it!"

Even though I'm a well-traveled and knowledgeable person, I can only say that they are indeed rich and know how to have fun!

I've already uploaded everything to your computer, host. I suggest you lock the door and wear headphones before reading, so that Cat won't misunderstand and think you're doing *that*...

Jiang Chen rolled his eyes at it, got up, locked the door, put on his headphones, and opened the folder that the fluffy little dumpling had sent him.

After a long while, he took off his headphones and frowned slightly.

"From what Wang Daqiao said, he wants Yang Qingwei to continue pretending to be an innocent little rabbit and endure this period of time, and then unleash a killing spree to seize the Ye Group?"

Jiang Chen leaned back in his computer chair, his fingers tapping idly on the table. "Should we wait to reap the benefits, or let Cat Boss take revenge himself?"

The fluffy dumpling rubbed its face and looked through the mission requirements again, then whispered a reminder: "Host, pay attention to the mission requirements. We probably can't just sit back and reap the benefits."

With this video, plus my specialty of boosting data to get on the trending topics, I should be able to drag a bunch of people down, right?

Just that hospital alone, hehehe, can reveal quite a lot!

Add to that the things they said during their conversation, and posting it online would definitely cause a huge uproar!

"No, we can't upload these yet." He thought carefully and shook his head, saying, "First, this video needs to be edited; some things about Cat Boss can't be released."

Secondly, we need to help Yang Yingying completely deal with An Muya, so that she has no chance to cause any more trouble.

We'll wait until Wang Daqiao has secretly dealt with Ye Xingchen, leaving him isolated and helpless, before we make our move! Then, wave after wave, we'll completely crush Cat Boss's revenge mission with overwhelming force.

The little white cat didn't understand the difference between doing this first and doing that, but it knew its host was right, so it drawled out and said in a spoiled tone, "Oh~ I understand!"

"Just tell me how you want it edited, and I'll do it for you."

"Not only do we need to edit this one, but we also need to edit and prepare the videos you filmed of An Muya before, and we'll release them when the time is right..."

Those already deeply involved in the vortex were unaware of the situation; they were all busy with their own affairs.

With Jiang Chen's full support, Ye Xingluo's online platform has grown stronger and stronger. Relying on the Taobao APP, more and more functions have been launched one after another, and its own express delivery company has also spread all over the country, bringing the convenience and speed of online shopping to the extreme.

With the secret help of his father Wang Daqiao, Yang Qingwei took over as factory director and on the third day, he negotiated a big order with the local government on behalf of the factory which was on the verge of bankruptcy. He then negotiated with a machinery company to introduce advanced machinery at a very low price, laid off employees, trained new employees, and so on. He quickly saved the factory and made it grow.

Spring has arrived, and Ye Zhong is quite pleased with himself.

Seeing that Yang Qingwei, who had been exiled, was making steady progress step by step with his own strength, I was very happy. I felt that my years of personal teaching had not been in vain. He was indeed a very capable person who could shine wherever he was thrown.

Meanwhile, his most beloved youngest son has already started his own business.

He plans to invest heavily in attracting foreign companies to create the city's first shopping carnival. Although the project is still in the midst of intensive preparation, he is sure to reap the rewards if it succeeds.

A setback led to the rapid growth of the youngest son, which can be considered a blessing in disguise.

An Muya became increasingly likable;

After what happened, Yang Yingying, now old and faded, no longer wanted to touch anything. However, she still kept her home in good order and enjoyed the comforts of a gentle embrace when she got home from get off work. The young and beautiful An Muya was there to please her. Ye Zhong thought this kind of life was pretty good.

If there's any regret, the only thing that feels unsatisfactory is that after all this time, An Muya hasn't shown any signs of getting pregnant.

Ye Zhong thought to himself, if nothing happens after a while, he should have Dr. Han examine and treat her body. If An Muya is infertile like Yang Yingying, then it would be better to have a transplant as soon as possible…

Time flies and passes quickly.

On this day, Jiang Chen was lying comfortably in a rocking chair, enjoying a shoulder and back massage from the catgirl, when his phone suddenly buzzed twice.

He looked down and saw that Ji Jiangchen's novel had been updated.

After subscribing to read the latest chapter and leaving a comment, Jiang Chen stood up and put his phone in his pocket. "Xiao Bai, it's time for us to clear the obstacles for the domineering CEO again."

The little cat girl's tail flicked, and she transformed into a fluffy ball, jumping onto his shoulder and licking his face. She happily exclaimed, "I love my host who's always so eager to complete missions!"

"Good morning, young master." He had just come downstairs when he bumped into Ye Xingluo, who was hurriedly coming out of the bedroom and buttoning his shirt.

Cat looked apologetic. "Sorry, I overslept and haven't had time to check my work schedule. What do I need to do today?"

"Dr. Han, please hire an assistant for me. It's too much work for you to do both, being both driver and assistant all the time."

Jiang Chen put one hand in his pocket and laughed, "It's no trouble at all. The young master has no work scheduled today. Let's go to the old house to have dinner with the old lady and the old man."

"Not working, going out to eat?" Cat was taken aback, not quite understanding. "Is today some special day?"

"It's the old man's birthday. However, the second young master's third business venture has failed, and the gallery deal he negotiated was snatched away. Mr. Ye has been invited to oversee the negotiations, so he probably won't be able to make it today;

Yang Qingwei and her niece have never been favored; the old lady doesn't allow them into the old house. Today, only the two of us are going to wish the old man a happy birthday.

Ye Xinglu slapped her forehead and twitched her lips. "I've been so busy with the mobile game lately that I forgot about this! I can't go to the old house yet. I need to go to the mall to pick out a birthday gift for Grandpa."

"I've already prepared the birthday gift, and the car is ready downstairs."

"Dr. Han, I really don't know what to say!" Ye Xingluo said with a look of relief and gratitude, sincerely praising, "You are simply a god sent by heaven to help me!"

If I didn't already have Amei, I probably could have tolerated him even if he were a man..."

Jiang Chen kicked him, "Dream on! You're willing to put up with me, but I'm not. Get lost, get back to business!"

"Just kidding, are you really that anxious?" Cat chuckled, dodging the flying kick and jumping to the door to change his shoes. He then tidied his hair in front of the mirror and asked curiously, "What birthday gift did you prepare for me?"

That old man is very picky; he really can't stand ordinary things.

"It's in the car, see for yourself."

Ye Xingluo went out out of curiosity and went straight to the passenger seat. When she opened the car door, she saw that there was a well-packaged box on the seat.

The square box looked like a shirt gift box at first glance. He picked it up and found it to be quite heavy. After shaking it a few times, he heard a dull sound coming from inside. He didn't know what it was.

Chapter Forty-Four: Unmasking

"Do you remember what you wanted to achieve?" Jiang Chen shook the car keys in his hand, walked around to the driver's seat, opened the car door, and slightly raised his chin to indicate, "We're going to celebrate the old man's birthday today, so we should prepare some important gifts."

Young Master, it's time to reveal your true identity!

Ye Xingluo paused slightly, then opened the box. Inside were all the documents and profit statements of her company. "This...you mean my identity as the chairman of Taoba should be made public?"

"Otherwise what? How can you get the family heirloom if you don't let the old man see your achievements? Without the family heirloom, you won't be able to show off in front of Mr. Ye."

I remember you once said that what pained Mr. Ye the most was never gaining the old man's approval. Today the time is ripe, go ahead and show off and slap him in the face!

"I..." Ye Xingluo felt inexplicably nervous and lowered her voice to remind him, "We haven't been able to find an opportunity to try opening that safe I mentioned before."

Should we wait until we have a chance to find my mother's belongings before...?

Jiang Chen sat down, fastened his seatbelt, and started the car. With a puzzled look on his face, he asked, "Don't you want to be the first to obtain the Ye family heirloom if we don't find the relics?"

"That's right, these are two different things." Cat realized this after being reminded. "Whether or not we can find the heirloom, I want him to regret it for the rest of his life! So today we must find a way to get the heirloom!"

That safe is a bit tricky though.

Yang Yingying has no routine about going out, and we're too busy to keep an eye on her.

How can we lure her away from the mountain, and in the meantime, take down the new surveillance equipment and break into the safe?

As Jiang Chen drove the car away from the temporary residence, he explained, "This is one of the reasons why we're not working today. Let's head to the old house now, have lunch together, and then return to the villa to rest for half a day."

Mr. Ye was taken away by the second young master to oversee the negotiations, so he definitely won't be coming back today;

The day before yesterday, I overheard Yang Yingying talking to Yang Qingwei on the phone. The conversation was about how she felt he was working too hard and suffering too much in that remote factory in the middle of nowhere, and that Yang Yingying wanted to prepare some of his favorite food and carefully prepared daily necessities to send over to visit him.

"That way, with us at home and them all away, isn't this the perfect opportunity?"

"Wonderful!" The fluffy little thing lying on his shoulder perked up immediately. "So, the reason my host made me monitor the phone calls every day was to find an opportunity. That's awesome!"

Ye Xingluo's eyes sparkled with anticipation; after enduring so much, she could finally stand up straight!

The old house remained as quiet as ever.

Early in the morning, the old lady started directing the kitchen to prepare a birthday banquet for her husband; the old man was also in high spirits, waiting for his son and grandson to come and celebrate his birthday.

The servants in the courtyard were all doing their jobs, cleaning the yard, tidying up the flowers and plants, and preparing for the banquet. They were busy and full of life.

Around noon, the old man finally snapped into his phone, his face contorted with anger, "What? I only have one birthday a year, what important thing could you possibly have that prevents you from coming back?"

Ha, is it that they can't come back or they won't come back?

"Fine, you're increasingly disrespectful to your old man. If you don't come back today, don't ever set foot in the old house again!"
