Chapter 488: Chapter 489: I Will Definitely Divorce Him

The next day.

At half-past nine in the morning, Ye Xingbei met Qiao Yi at the Crescent Moon.

Gu Junzhu was right, Qiao was a great beauty.

With her exquisite melon-like face, willow-leaf-shaped eyebrows, eyes shining like crystal-clear stars, skin as smooth as jade, features like those in a painting, charming and youthful demeanor, she resembled an elegant lady in a classical painting.

After seeing Qiao Yi, Ye Xingbei thought that Zhang Heyuan must be either blind or mentally challenged.

How could he bear to mistreat such a woman of extraordinary beauty? His mind must be either water-logged or it must have been kicked by a donkey.

As Qiao Yi entered Crescent Moon and saw Ye Xingbei waving at her, she walked over and asked tentatively: “Auntie?”

Ye Xingbei’s face twisted, but she could only nod: “My name is Ye Xingbei, you may call me Asterism.”

“Auntie,” Qiao Yi completely ignored her words, and the corners of her mouth turned up in joy, “Although I think you’re too young, I still consider you my auntie. After all, only a beauty of exceptional charm like you is worthy of my younger uncle. If you weren’t as beautiful as you are, standing next to my younger uncle, you’d feel utterly inferior!”

Miss Qiao didn’t take the bait, and still insisted on calling her “Auntie,” leaving Ye Xingbei with no choice but to play along: “You’re very beautiful too, you greatly resemble Xiao Qiao. No need to be so formal, just speak casually.”

“Okay,” Qiao Yi replied with a gentle smile, “Auntie, what will you have? My treat.”

Ye Xingbei didn’t refuse: “Lemon water will do.”

Qiao Yi ordered two cups of lemon water.

After chatting about trivial matters and getting to know each other better, Qiao Yi hesitated before asking, “Auntie, did my uncle send you?”

She nervously gripped her cup, her eyes filled with anticipation.

Ye Xingbei hesitated before nodding, “Yes.”

The forthright Fifth Master of Gu would undoubtedly support her in taking a stand for Qiao Yi.

It’s just that he was too stubborn to admit it.

Seeing Ye Xingbei hesitate, Qiao Yi felt rather disappointed and lowered her eyes, “It’s understandable that my grandfather and uncle refuse to forgive me. I was disrespectful…”

Seeing how Qiao Yi, though beautiful, looked haggard and exhausted, Ye Xingbei could tell that she must have had a rough time recently.

Feeling sympathy for Qiao Yi, she tried to comfort her: “They all care about you.”

Qiao Yi lifted her head to look at her, and laughed, “Auntie, you’re so beautiful, kind, understanding, and your voice is so soft and soothing. No wonder my uncle likes you. Even I, as a woman, can’t help but be moved by you.”

Ye Xingbei laughed, “You’re exaggerating.”

“I’m being serious,” said Qiao Yi, smiling enviously, “Also, Auntie, you have this indescribable aura about you. It’s like you’re a spirit from the valley, untainted by the mundane world. It’s so comforting.”

“You flatter me,” said Ye Xingbei, embarrassed by the compliment. She quickly changed the topic: “Actually, the main reason I invited you here today was because Xiao Qiao asked me to. He wants me to take you to see the child at the Maternal and Child Health Hospital. He hopes that you can face this bravely and not run away.”

The smile on Qiao Yi’s face froze in an instant.

She lowered her eyes, her smile gradually fading.

Looking at Qiao Yi, Ye Xingbei slowly continued: “Yiyi, Xiao Qiao is really worried about you. Maybe he said some harsh words to you before, but you’re his flesh and blood, and he will always care about you the most. He would never harm you… About Zhang Heyuan, what are you really thinking?”

Qiao Yi’s eyes welled up with tears, she bit her lip, raised her eyes and looked at Ye Xingbei: “Auntie, rest assured, if the child really is Zhang Heyuan’s, I will definitely divorce him!”
