Yesterday, he had only been concerned about Ye Ci's results. He had certainly been in no mood to think about anything else.
It was only now that he had noticed that Ning Li had not come back with her mother.
There was a moment of silence at the dining table.
Ye Cheng pursed his lips.
"Father, why do you keep mentioning her?
"Isn't it good that she's not here?
Ye Ming glared at Ye Cheng. That caused Ye Cheng to shrink back, without daring to say anything more.
Su Yuan paused.
"She stayed in the Capital for the New Year."
She said stiffly, in a timid voice.
This was the first Chinese New Year since they had brought Ning Li back from Lincheng to live with the Ye family. In the end, Ning Li had chosen to stay alone in the Capital rather than come back.
If word got out, it would not be pleasant.
Ye Ming frowned slightly.
This matter clearly made him a little unhappy, but he could not lose his temper.
