Ye Yanxi naturally wouldn't think that He Zhenhua brought up her birthday to give her a present. Moreover, the relationship between her and He Zhenhua was like that of enemies and not friends. From her understanding of him, this was obviously impossible.

His mind raced as he thought of the most likely reason why He Zhenhua came to look for her, and that was … So she asked tentatively, "At that time, I asked you, did you know about my biological parents? This time, you came … is it to tell my parents? "

She had just finished speaking when He Zhenhua's expression changed.

Thus, Ye Yanxi knew that she guessed right. Although she was happy in her heart, it was no longer as urgent as when she was searching for her parents.

She did not think that He Zhenhua would be so kind as to tell her about the wedding ceremony. He was also his daughter, and He Zhenhua had always disliked her.

When they were in the mall, he had told Madam He that he was the ex-girlfriend of her daughter's boyfriend. He clearly had such a huge issue with her, how could he be kind in an instant?

"Don't you want to know about your biological parents?" He Zhenhua stared into Ye Yan's eyes, as if he was trying to decide if she wanted to recognize her parents or not.

Ye Yan Xi looked at him with a faint smile, "It's been 16 years. I don't even know anything about them. I don't even know if it's true or false."

"But your mother did bring you to this world. That is an indisputable fact."

Hearing that, Ye Yan Xi ridiculed, "Director He, I remember I once asked you for information about my father, but …" Have you forgotten what you said? " Ye Yan Xi stared at his face, word for word, "Tell me, you don't even know who my parents are."

He Zhenhua's expression did not change, but he immediately replied, "I really did not know at the time. Later, when I went back to think about it carefully, I recalled it."

"Do you think I can believe what you're saying now?" Ye Yan Xi was a bit impatient, but she still politely smiled at him and said, "Director He, since you've finished, can I leave now?"

"You really don't want to know who your parents are?" He Zhenhua looked at Ye Yan Xi and turned around without hesitation, "Your mother has always been looking for you, and it was painful because of that, don't you want to know too?"

However, He Zhenhua's condescending attitude made Ye Yanxi very agitated.

It wasn't just the first time they met that He Zhenhua had been hostile towards her. It was also the same in the future encounters. Although it was due to He Man, it made her feel even more uncomfortable.

She didn't think that He Zhenhua had any good intentions in coming to her company this morning. Who knew what other motives he might have?

Since he didn't want to be controlled by others, it was better to not know anything.

She had come here alone for so many years, her parents had long since become carefree to her.

"Director He, I still have to work, so I won't keep you company." Ye Yanxi turned around and smiled politely once more, glanced at He Zhenhua, then turned and walked towards the elevator.

He Zhenhua looked at Ye Yan Xi's resolute figure, and instantly fell into a trance.

He could clearly know the whereabouts of his parents by choosing to leave in such a decisive and suave manner, but he still chose to turn around. His proud attitude was somewhat similar to when he was young.

However...

He Zhenhua's eyes dimmed, and he almost blurted out the truth to Ye Yan Xi. But in the end, he still watched as she climbed up the elevator without looking back.

She knew that the current Ye Yan Xi wouldn't believe anything he said. If she was told, it would only make her feel more resistant, thinking that he was intentionally lying to her.

The resistance and wariness in her heart were all caused by him.

It seemed that this matter could only be left at the back for the time being.

Just as He Zhenhua was walking out of the building of the Xiao Group, the phone rang. It was He Zhenhua's man who had sent someone to follow He Man.

As he walked out, he picked up the phone. "What is it?"

"Director He, after Miss went back to the hospital for two days, she was discharged again today. It seems like she's headed for the Jiang family."

He Mang was going to the Jiang family?

He Zhenhua's face darkened. Actually, He Man was the main reason that Jiang Qizhen was so angry. If she had gone to find him, she didn't know if he would be able to accept this fact.

"Alright, I understand."

He Zhenhua hung up the phone and immediately got into the car. He then instructed the driver in a low voice, "Go to the Jiang family."

The driver looked at He Zhenhua's expression and agreed. He started the car and didn't dare to be negligent in the slightest.

Ye Yan Xi took the elevator up to the office and walked towards the office of the Ministry of Commerce.

Just as she reached the door, she saw the two bodyguards that were following her around, looking very anxious.

Seeing the look in their eyes, Ye Yan Xi suddenly felt guilty.

After all, he had sneaked in to see He Zhenhua.

Thus, she turned around and walked towards the corridor with fewer people.

It was almost time to go to work. Many of his colleagues had already entered the office, so no one had noticed that they were here.

"Miss Ye, we've been looking for you. Where did you go?" One of the bodyguards was probably anxious, seeing that there weren't many people around, he asked Ye Yan Xi.

Ye Yanxi's eyes flashed, but she still answered truthfully, "I'm going down to the main hall."

Immediately, Ye Yanxi felt the two bodyguards' faces darken, even though they were already quite dark.

"Didn't we tell you that you can't go down?"

"I've returned safely. I'm fine." Ye Yan Xi mumbled to herself.

"Now is not the time to argue. The boss is looking for you." Another bodyguard said.

She didn't want anyone to disturb her while she was talking to He Zhenhua, so she didn't hear the phone call. Now that she heard the bodyguard's words, she immediately took out her phone and looked around, immediately dumbfounded. There were a few missed calls and a few unfamiliar numbers.

The Roman number was probably Xiao Yu's.

Ye Yan Xi guiltily stared at her phone screen. Suddenly, her phone lit up again. This was the same international number as before. She could almost imagine that Xiao Yu's expression must be really scary right now.

Even though she felt guilty, she could still imagine how Xiao Yu would worry about her right now. Thus, she quickly picked up the phone. After she connected, the other party remained silent for a while, which made her feel even more uncertain.

"Where did you go?" Xiao Yu asked in a low, dangerous voice.

Ye Yan Xi stammered for a while, "Um …" I, I just went downstairs. "

"Didn't you go to the bathroom?" Xiao Yu's tone was full of questions, as well as his usual domineering attitude. This kind of lie was simply impossible to believe.

Ye Yan Xi braced herself and continued to tell her lies, "Um …" The bathroom on this floor is temporarily out of service, so I went downstairs. "

"Ye Yanxi, do you know how clumsy your lies are?"

Ye Yan Xi looked as if she had been kicked, and raised her voice by a decibels, "I think my lies are quite convincing."

"Where did you go?" Xiao Yu pressed.

Ye Yanxi knew that if she continued hiding it, Xiao Yu wouldn't let her off. Since she didn't plan to hide it, she told him, "I went to see Boss He."

"He Zhenhua?"

"Yes."

The other side of the phone went silent for a few seconds, and then a cold voice rang out, "Ye Yanxi, before I got on the plane, didn't you say that you had already left everything behind?"

Ye Yan Xi hastily replied, "I remember, you want me to come home on time after work, and you want me to …"

She paused for a moment, then turned her eyes craftily and stole a glance at the two bodyguards beside her. She said with a bit of a blush, "I've been thinking about you."

Thus, the other side of the call went silent for a few seconds.

Xiao Yu's voice was no longer as cold and solemn as it was a moment ago. "Don't think that I can let you off just because you're trying to make me happy."

However, after hearing his words, Ye Yanxi knew that this move was still effective.

He then continued, "I went down to talk with him for a while and then came up without any delay. There were no more than ten minutes between the two of us."

"What did he say?"

"He said some weird things about my age and even asked me when my birthday was. Anyway, I told him that even if he said anything now, it would be useless, so I wouldn't believe him. After that, I left."

"Finished?"

"Yeah." Ye Yan Xi said with suspicion, "He's already a senior, but is already my father's age. He's also the president of the He Corporation. Moreover, he's in the Xiao Corporation's building, and there's a lot of people coming and going. What can he do to me?"

The other party was silent for three seconds. Then, he opened his mouth and asked, "What else did you say?"

"It seems like he wanted to talk about my parents, but I didn't want to hear about it. That's all."

The other end of the call seemed to be relieved.

"Don't ever see him again." Xiao Yu's tone was cold and hard, with no room for negotiation.

"I understand. It should be around six or seven over at your side. You're up so early, so you didn't take much rest?" Ye Yan Xi looked at the time.

On the other side, Xiao Yu sneered. "Do you think everyone likes to be cooped up in bed like you? Don't you know that the best time of the day is in the morning?" What did you do in the morning? "Hmm?"

During the time she and Xiao Yu were together, because Xu Bei would come to pick her up in the morning and not have to drive around early like she usually did, she had saved quite a bit of time. Every day, she would wait until that time to get up, and when she arrived at the company, it was basically time to punch in.

Every time Xiao Yu woke up early, he would go over and over again without even thinking about it.

But even so, Xiao Yu didn't abandon her. Otherwise, based on the time she'd been up, she would still be stuck 100% in the middle of the road.

Ye Yanxi unwillingly puffed up her cheeks. To be able to point out her flaws in such an unrestrained manner, this was simply a defeat for her.

Thus, she subconsciously retorted in protest, not caring about the two bodyguards beside her, as she blurted out, "Who told you to keep tormenting me for so long every night!"
