âOf course.â Ling Yutong smiled. âI knew you were worried, so I came here as soon as I heard the news. Jing Zhiyuan has a deep background. He was promoted by the current president, but he was investigated this time. Dad said he didnât know how Shiting did it.â
Ye Shengge bit her lips and tried to suppress her tears.
She didnât realize how terrified and worried she was until she heard the good news.
âThank youâ¦â She choked.
âWhy are you thanking me?â Ling Yutong grabbed her hand. âSince thereâs an outcome, you donât have to worry anymore. Just wait for Shiting to return.â
Feeling a little embarrassed, Ye Shengge nodded and said, âSorry.â
âShiting asked me to come see you when I have time. Itâs probably because of this.â Ling Yutong suddenly smiled. âDad is the consul after all. No one knows more than him. Shiting definitely wants you to hear the good news immediately. After all, itâs not convenient for him to contact anyone right now.â
Ye Shengge was shocked, and her heart ached. Perhaps Ji Shiting had taken a huge risk to call her.
âIâll wait for him to come back,â she said softly.
Ling Yutong looked at her belly and said, âYou have to be in a good mood during this period. Otherwise, youâll suffer during labor.â
Ye Shengge nodded with a smile.
Ling Yutong shared some insights on pregnancy with her and was about to leave with Little Zheng. Ye Shengge didnât force her to stay and sent them to the door.
After the two of them left, Ye Shenggeâs smile never disappeared, and she was more cheerful than ever.
She couldnât wait to share the good news of Ji Shitingâs return with Sister Xiu and Grandpa Ji. They were all very happy.
â¦
After another week, the news of Jing Zhiyuan being arrested was finally reported on the news. Ye Shengge saw the footage of him being sent to the police car on TV.
Jing Zhiyuan remained calm even after being arrested, but he finally lost his composure when Jing Tong rushed over but was stopped by the police.
Even so, he didnât have a chance to talk to his daughter. Jing Tong was pushed to the ground by the police, and the footage was cut off at this part.
Ye Shengge had mixed feelings. On one hand, she was happy that T.S. Corporationâs crisis was resolved, but on the other hand, she couldnât get rid of Jing Tongâs dejected look.
However, joy prevailed. She couldnât wait to see Ji Shiting.
A few days ago, the man had only called her once because he was cautious, but now that Jing Zhiyuan had been arrested, he shouldnât have anything to worry about.
Ye Shengge put her hand on her belly and smiled, âBaby, your father is coming back soon.â
â¦
Jing Familyâs manor in the capital.
After Jing Zhiyuan was arrested, all his assets were frozen, and only this residential property wasnât seized because it was purchased under Jing Tongâs name.
Almost all the servants in the house had left, except for Aunt Wang, who had watched Jing Tong grow up. Jing Tongâs condition was worrying. She had lost her drive to live after seeing her father taken away.
Aunt Wang had no choice but to call Jiang Yu because she knew that Jing Tong was upset.
