Su Xiaofei couldn't believe what she was hearing from Ye Mingyu's mouth. Was she telling the truth or was Ye Mingyu trying to mess with her mind? Was that why Mo Yuchen wouldn't allow them to consummate their marriage? He knew that she was poisoned by Ye Mingyu and yet, he hadn't done anything to help her, protect her as his wife.
Rage filled her entirety, her hand tightening on her teacup the more she gave it a good thought. If Ye Mingyu was telling her the truth, then Mo Yuchen had chosen to abandon her from the very start of their marriage. He had chosen to betray her. What kind of husband would like to see his wife being killed by another woman? A man with a mistress. However, based on Ye Mingyu's words now, it didn't seem that she and Mo Yuchen had a harmonious relationship at all.
If it was Lu Qingfeng, Su Xiaofei knew that he would have scouted the whole world to find the remedy for her illness. Her husband would never allow anyone to harm her and would rather dirty his hands to protect her honor. Such a stark difference from how Mo Yuchen treated her in her previous life.
Su Xiaofei released Ye Mingyu's face and took a stroll around the room they were in, her mind going several miles wondering what was happening to the other woman. She wanted to think that Ye Mingyu was somewhat deranged and the words that came out from her mouth were ridiculous. As to how much of what she said today were true, Su Xiaofei wasn't sure.
She had sent Zhang Lan to check what Ye Mingyu had been doing these days and what she was doing downtown near the Black Dwarves. Whatever happened to Ye Mingyu recently, it made her remember the memories from her previous life, just like Lu Qingfeng did.
'Maybe she experienced something traumatizing to make her act like this.' She thought.
It was hard to tell how far Ye Mingyu had gained the memories and how she would act from now on. Would she try to ruin Su Xiaofei's life the way she previously did?
"I helped Mo Yuchen win against his competitors by convincing him to marry Su Xiaofei," Ye Mingyu shrugged, as if she couldn't recognize or even remember who she was talking to.
"By marrying her, Su Xiaofei would obviously hand over the management of Bluemedia to him, since that woman had no idea how to run it anyway." Ye Mingyu continued. "She's a shortsighted woman who only cares about what she wants and doesn't care about her mother's legacy. Her mother was really such an unfortunate person to adopt a person as shallow as her."
Su Xiaofei returned to her seat and smiled extremely sweetly at Ye Mingyu.
"So what do you think of me, Miss Ye? Considering I'm also Su Xiaofei." She asked.
Ye Mingyu stared at her like a deer transfixed by the bright headlights. She blinked several times and slowly nodded her head.
"You aren't that Su Xiaofei." She rubbed her chin and noticed that the silverwares on her plate was missing. Just when did Su Xiaofei take them without her noticing? Su Xiaofei even went as far as discarding hers and hiding them subtly.
"You aren't foolish like her." She added as if she was amused by Su Xiaofei. "It's a pity though that my previous self had failed to take advantage of you."
"What would you do then, if you were in her shoes?" Su Xiaofei kept Ye Mingyu within her line of sight.
When she noticed that Ye Mingyu was mentally unsound, she stealthily removed the silverwares the restaurant staff prepared for her. There was no way she would allow Ye Mingyu to stab her or kill her in broad daylight.
"Ah, you are making my head hurt!" Ye Mingyu grimaced. "How can I possibly beat you when the differences between us are already outstanding!"
Su Xiaofei's expression remained blank as she listened to Ye Mingyu.
"But do you think you could help me though? You're the head of Bluemedia now. It should be easy for you to make me a queen."
"And why would I do that?" Su Xiaofei arched a slender brown at her. "Just like I said earlier, we are not siblings nor are we friends. So what made you think that I would help you?"
"You won't? Well, I guess I have to get rid of Xiao Rufeng then. Isn't she your precious little talent right now?"
Su Xiaofei scoffed, but she didn't miss the warning in Ye Mingyu's tone. She didn't doubt that this woman was capable of doing it. However, what Ye Mingyu wasn't aware of was Yan Xiuchen's involvement with Xiao Rufeng. Ye Mingyu would be digging her own grave to lie in if she dared to lay a hand on Xiao Rufeng.
"Haven't you already tried that? You've tried to poison her, sell her to her younger sister to get the lead role." She reminded Ye Mingyu.
"Oh, no, dear. That wasn't me." Ye Mingyu grinned at her widely like a Cheshire cat, before she paused. "I shouldn't be telling you this though. How reckless of me."
She rose from her seat, intending to leave but suddenly stopped in her tracks.
"Say, if I kill you now, do you think things would be better from me?" She asked Su Xiaofei. She sounded bored, but Su Xiaofei could see the intent in her eyes.
"Hmm? Spending the rest of your days behind the bars like your father? I don't think you would enjoy that." Su Xiaofei replied. She was having a hard time understanding Ye Mingyu's motives now.
Ye Mingyu scowled and glanced up at the ceiling, as if it could offer her some advice.
"I see, then I have no choice but to become you then." She said before leaving without explaining herself any further.
Su Xiaofei could only look at Ye Mingyu's retreating figure, her mind couldn't come up with a conclusion of this meeting with her.
