Dong Xiaoxiao felt that she had already made the atmosphere a bit awkward and didn't know what to say. She said in a low voice to Ye Hanyi, "How about we go?"

"Sure." Ye Hanyi nodded, "Anyway, since you've made it clear, why don't we just leave?"

"Besides, it's getting late. It's better to just go home."

Ye Hanyi muttered as he looked at the sky.

"What did you just say?" Dong Xiaoxiao didn't hear the rest of what Ye Hanyi said. She blinked her eyes in confusion.

"It's nothing," Ye Hanyi coughed lightly. "I'm saying that we should hurry up and leave. Stupid woman, I really don't know how you endured this Mama Yan Chen."

"Tch," Dong Xiao Xiao rolled her eyes. "Right away."

Dong Xiaoxiao was engaged in a heated debate with Ye Hanyi. She was not bored at all. However, the Yan family's mother and son duo felt that the atmosphere had reached a freezing point.

Mother Yan could only helplessly give Yan Chen a look. Yan Chen's expression remained impassive, but her fists under the table were clenched tightly.

Dong Xiaoxiao felt that she was done with what Ye Hanyi had said. She brushed her hair and was about to leave.

But at this moment, Mother Yan's phone suddenly rang, attracting a few people's gazes.

Since Mother Yan's phone was placed on the table, the caller ID was exceptionally clear.

"This is …" When Ye Hanyi saw his mother's caller ID, his eyes widened. He quickly reminded Dong Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, quickly look, it's Li Lin!"

Dong Xiaoxiao looked carefully and indeed, Li Lin's contact number appeared on her mother's phone screen.

"This really is an impossible search." Dong Xiaoxiao was excited.

When her mother saw the phone call, she smiled apologetically at Dong Xiaoxiao before turning to answer it.

"We should listen carefully. What is this Li Lin talking about?" Ye Hanyi raised his eyebrows, "Maybe this is a breakthrough point."

"Ok." Dong Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up. She had already felt that there was no hope, but this sudden call from her mother made her keenly sense the presence of a clue.

I can't believe that Li Lin is related to Yan Chen's family, Dong Xiaoxiao thought.

She was listening intently to her mother's phone call, but her mother's phone call was a bit old-fashioned and hard to believe. Dong Xiaoxiao tried hard to listen.

Yan Chen, who was at the side, was a little relieved. She quietly poked Dong Xiaoxiao, who was beside her.

Dong Xiaoxiao ignored him and continued to work hard to listen to Mother Yan's call.

However, Yan Chen did not give up and continued to harass her. She spoke with a wronged tone, "Xiao Xiao, how can you treat me like this?"

Nutjob!

Dong Xiaoxiao looked at Yan Chen with disdain. She did not say anything, but grumbled in her heart. This Yan Chen was so annoying.

She felt that ever since she had helped him find out the truth, Yan Chen had stuck to her like candy. Helping Yan Chen was the stupidest decision she had ever made.

Sigh, Dong Xiaoxiao sighed. It was all because of this ancestor in her body.

Seeing that Dong Xiaoxiao ignored him, he nudged Dong Xiaoxiao again. "Xiaoxiao, I'm talking to you."

However, Dong Xiaoxiao was caught off guard and her body tilted from the impact. She felt a little pain where Yan Chen had hit. She glared fiercely at Yan Chen, "What are you doing!?"

Seeing Dong Xiaoxiao glare at him, Yan Chen thought back to his purpose in coming here. He put on a smile again and smiled awkwardly. "Xiao Xiao, I wanted to talk to you, can't you talk to me for a bit?"

Seeing that Dong Xiaoxiao's expression wasn't too good, he quickly said, "Okay, okay, I'm not talking anymore. I'll eat, I'll eat."

"This person really deserves a beating." Ye Hanyi scoffed, "I've never seen such people before."

"Forget it, forget it. We should get down to business. We're really going to be annoyed to death by him." Dong Xiaoxiao felt like she was about to be tricked by Yan Chen.

Seeing that Yan Chen had stopped talking, Dong Xiaoxiao finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Then, Dong Xiao Xiao pricked up her ears and listened. She couldn't hear anything clearly, and because she was wary of Dong Xiao, she kept her voice low. After listening for a while, she murmured, "It's something …" "Marry what …"

"It's so easy for Yan Chen to find a partner to get married to." Ye Hanyi suddenly added.

"Eh, how did you know?" Dong Xiaoxiao asked in confusion.

"It's because you're stupid. When you argued with Yan Chen, I listened to everything." Ye Hanyi rolled his eyes and said, "If we continue to investigate at this speed, I'm afraid we'll die if we don't."

Dong Xiaoxiao smiled embarrassedly. At this moment, her mother was about to end the call.

"Mm, okay, then that's it. Next time, I'll come and talk to you." Saying that, he hung up the phone.

"Ah, I'm hanging up!" Dong Xiaoxiao exclaimed when she saw her mother hang up the phone. "Then what did he say?"

"I probably didn't hear the contents of her phone call clearly. However, she did say that she wanted to give Yan Chen's name a house so that she could find a partner to marry to." Ye Hanyi added, then raised his eyebrows and teased, "Dong Xiaoxiao, who knows, this person on the phone might be you."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Dong Xiaoxiao was immediately furious. "Even if I were to marry a ghost, I wouldn't be able to!"

Dong Xiaoxiao didn't even realize what was being said, but Ye Hanyi's eyes darkened. He raised his eyebrows and remained silent.

The lunatic Dong Xiaoxiao obviously didn't realize what she just said. She anxiously said, "Aiya, Ye Hanyi, hurry up and tell me. Other than that, what else did she just say? I really want to know!"

Dong Xiaoxiao blinked her eyes curiously at Ye Hanyi.

"It seems like there's nothing more to say." Ye Hanyi turned his face away.

"Alright then." Ye Hanyi wouldn't lie to him. Dong Xiaoxiao shrugged helplessly when she saw that he had stopped talking.

Mother Yan had also hung up the phone. She saw Dong Xiaoxiao in a daze, so she smiled again and tried to find a topic to talk about to break the awkward atmosphere.

"Xiaoxiao," Old Mrs. Yan said with a smile, "Look, I just received a call all of a sudden, and didn't even bother to talk to you."

"This mother Yan really forced herself to do it." Ye Hanyi retorted.

"Pfft ~ ~" Dong Xiaoxiao almost couldn't hold it in, but she quickly restrained herself.

"Mm …" She calmed herself down and thought for a while before speaking, "Auntie, please eat more. You haven't eaten much in such a long time."

"Aiya, there's nothing wrong with my old bones. It doesn't matter if I eat less or not." Old Yan's mother smiled and said, "Xiaoxiao, you're growing now, so you should eat more. Maybe you'll get married and have kids later on …"
