Ye An Ran rushed over to the reserved room, where Chi-tong was already waiting.

"Now it seems that I have watched you grow up," he said with a sigh. "I have known your father for twenty years, and now that we are in trouble, it is impossible for me to stay out of it no matter what."

Ye An Ran's hand that was holding the teacup froze. She did not think that she and Chi-tong would have such affinity.

"We're busy with business, it's rare for us to get together, but Ye An Ran, you have to remember, there are far more important things than the company's interests, money and power."

"Thank you." She didn't know what to say. It was like a hot spring running through her heart. She didn't expect that she would feel such warmth in this deceptive shopping mall.

"I said thank you for being too formal. When you're done with your work, come to the mansion and have a seat. Your Auntie Xu can cook well. She can cook for you herself." Don't think too much about your father. "

"Alright."

Right, when this is all over, when she's done with this hard battle, everything will return to normal.

Then what about Xi Jin Cheng, the man's face suddenly flashed across his mind, was it over? The attachment in his heart was hard to ignore, but he warned himself again and again not to have any hope for that man.

Too much anticipation would sink deeper and deeper, waiting for the moment when he would be unable to escape. No, he couldn't be addicted. She forcefully closed her eyes, trying to erase him from her mind.

In the next few days, Ye An Ran worked day and night. She took the orders and ran the projects with all her might, almost physically.

Kai Di, who was beside her, looked at her with an extremely pained expression. No matter how delicate her makeup was, it was impossible to hide the exhaustion in her eyes.

She was like a machine, working day and night, working, working, even eating with ease. There were always piles of folders and papers on the table. She held a black pen in her hand, and she wrote on the papers one by one.

Although she did not say that she was tired, Ye An Ran could faintly feel that his body was not feeling well.

"Director, it's better to take a good rest," Kai Di said as he placed the steaming cup of coffee on the table. Although he knew that drinking coffee at a fast pace would hurt his stomach, he could not refute Ye An Ran's words, "It's been a few days since I last had a proper meal.

"It's fine, I'm still young, I can still hold on." She picked up her coffee and took a sip.

It was a good excuse to be young, but the truth was that she had to rely on her young body to survive. However, it was clear to her that she couldn't take it anymore.

Kai Di did not speak further, he looked at her worriedly, then turned and left the room.

The only sound left in the room was the scrape of a pen on paper. She didn't even feel the passage of time.

The phone suddenly rang, and she didn't bother to look at the name on the screen. She casually picked it up, her eyes still fixed on the information in her hands.

Hello, I am Ye An Ran, the acting director of Yeats. she said, out of habit.

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line, followed by a bitter laugh. "He really does look like he's doing business."

That gentle and familiar voice made her freeze for a moment, retracting her gaze, and asked hesitantly: "Xing Yu, why did you think of calling me?"

She had never expected that the person who she was talking to on the phone was actually Sheng Xing Yu, the person she was engaged to ever since she was young. A year ago, he had followed his family's wishes and gone abroad to study. He had too many things to do and rarely contacted her.

However, she would always be able to receive a few exquisite items or a piece of words from him. Although she did not always have a pot of porridge on the phone, she could still feel his warmth and concern.

"I can't even have a few words with you?" The man smiled in an aggrieved manner.

Ye An Ran looked at the time displayed on the lower right corner of the computer, his heart full of regret. He knew that the other party was only occasionally calling him, but this was not the time to reminisce.

"I'm sorry, Xing Yu, I really can't manage right now. "I'll contact you after I finish my work, okay?"

He only paused for a moment before replying, "I understand. If you have something to do, then go ahead and busy yourself first. It's just taking care of your own body."

"Okay, thank you." She hung up and put the phone down on the table.

She was no longer clear what Sheng Xing Yu had done to her. They had been engaged since they were young, but in her heart, she had always treated him like a next-door brother.

"Director," Just as she was in a daze for a moment, Kai Di's voice came from inside the phone, "There is a private lawyer surnamed Chen who wishes to see you."

The lawyer named Chen, she thought for a moment, suddenly remembering what her father had said to her that day in the ward.

Kai Di continued, "He said that he wants to talk to you alone about the matter regarding Chairman Ye."

She sighed, twisted the black ink pen in her hand and said, "Let him in."

She didn't want to talk about it. Her father hadn't died yet, but he was going to put his hard-earned fortune on the table and divide it. She didn't want to accept it, but she had to talk to her father's lawyer.
