Chapter 3706: She’s the Next Mistress of the Ye family Editor: Atlas Studios Hua Ci finally heard something that made her happy. "Of course I have to go." The female colleague nudged her with her elbow. "Are you happy? That’s why I’m asking you why you’re conflicted about a patient. With our status, we’re already giving her face by treating her. But you’re still angry at her and lowering your status!" Hua Ci did not want to refute this time. She tacitly agreed with her colleague. At this moment, the phone in her bag vibrated. The female colleague tilted her head at it. "Someone’s calling you." Hua Ci thanked her and opened her bag to take out her phone. Her brows relaxed when she lowered her eyes and saw it was Ye Lan. She told her female colleague she needed to answer this call and returned to her room. "Hello, Aunt Ye." "I heard that you’re in the independent continent? How is it? Are you used to it?" Ye Lan was as concerned as ever, but it was just an elder’s general concern; they weren’t very close. Hua Ci smiled as she walked to the balcony. "I came with the organization. It’s alright. You have to take care of your health. I’ll visit you in Beijing when I’m free." "Okay," Ye Lan replied and was about to hang up. Hua Ci hesitated for a moment before asking, "Aunt Ye, do you know there’s a very young girl around Wangchuan?" "Who are you talking about?" Ye Lan reacted before realizing who she was referring to. Immediately, her cold eyes softened. "Oh, you’re talking about Nian Nian. I know. What’s wrong?" Hua Ci did not understand her attitude and asked in confusion, "You know that she followed him to the independent continent?" Ye Lan did not understand. "I know. What about it?" Hua Ci couldn’t help but raise her voice. "The independent continent is different from other places. It’s very unsafe here. There are all kinds of people. It’s dangerous for a little girl like her to come here... Wangchuan shouldn’t have brought her. You should quickly arrange for someone to send her back." On the other end of the line, initially relaxed in the office chair, Ye Lan’s expression turned cold when Hua Ci talked about Qiao Nian. She interrupted her long speech with a gentle but solemn voice. "Hua Ci, this is Wangchuan’s own business. I have no right to interfere. Do you understand?" Originally expressing her disapproval fiercely, upon hearing this, it was as if Hua Ci had been slapped across the face, and her fair face instantly flushed red. Extremely embarrassed, she gripped her cell phone tightly. "I... I’m sorry, Aunt Ye." Ye Lan gave her face. "Your mother entrusted you to me, and I’ve always treated you as my half-daughter. However, you have to understand that what Wangchuan wants to do, nobody in the Ye family, other than the Old Master, can say anything about him. After all, you and Wangchuan are not blood-related; he’s not your biological brother. It’s fine if you usually joke with him, he won’t embarrass you on my account. However, that doesn’t mean he likes others interfering in his private matters. He has a bad temper, and I can’t suppress him sometimes." Ye Lan was just short of saying, "You’ve crossed the line." However, Hua Ci could understand the meaning between the lines. After realizing what Ye Lan meant, her mind went blank. She was so embarrassed that she wished she could find a hole to hide in. "I-I’m sorry." Ye Lan roughly understood something. She reminded her ambiguously, "Nian Nian is someone that even the Old Master likes very much. I like her too. She will be the next mistress of our Ye family in the future. She’s younger than you, so give in to her."
