Then Xiao Qingyi began her work. Once she got busy, she didn’t have time to feel awkward around Ye Xiaofei anymore.

At that moment, Li Tianfeng sent Ye Xiaofei a dossier about the Jiang family, and Ye Xiaofei quickly started reading it with utmost seriousness.

This Jiang family dossier was much more detailed than the one Chu Tong had provided.

It listed all the industries owned by the Jiang family, their scale, and the important figures within the family.

Jiang’s family ranked around fourth or fifth within the province. Compared to the prominent families in Ning City, they were truly like a giant.

However, all the industries operated by the Jiang family were legitimately established, and they had no involvement in any illicit activities.

Regarding the key figures’ information, there was quite a bit about Jiang Yuqing, mostly related to her investments.

Based on the information provided by the police and the Li family, it seemed to have confirmed that Jiang Yuqing had no issues.

Now, Ye Xiaofei could deduce that he had been manipulated by a skilled poisoner, and he had fallen into a well-crafted trap.

Not only that, but that guy had also poisoned Xiao Qingyi, which was a blatant provocation.

“Does he think 1 won’t be able to find him? He underestimates me.” Ye Xiaofei’s lips curled up, filled with determination.

Today, Fang Yunshu didn’t have any additional matters and left work on time.

They accompanied Fang Ling’er home after picking her up from school. Then, Ye Xiaofei took charge of cooking, while Fang Yunshu helped with the laundry and other chores. Fang Ling’er quietly tinkered with her computer in her room.

After Ye Xiaofei finished cooking, he called them over for dinner.

Watching Fang Yunshu and Fang Ling’er enjoying their meal, Ye Xiaofei couldn’t help but smile.

Fang Yunshu felt uncomfortable being stared at by Ye Xiaofei all the time and said, “Why don’t you eat? What are you looking at us for?”

Ye Xiaofei grinned and replied, “1 enjoy watching you two eat. Just by watching, I feel full.”

Fang Ling’er blinked her big, bright eyes and said, “Like a feast for the eyes, right?”

“Yes! Exactly!” Ye Xiaofei nodded enthusiastically.

Fang Ling’er then turned to Fang Yunshu and said, “Mommy, Daddy said you’re beautiful.”

Fang Yunshu rolled her eyes and said, “Eat your food and stop talking nonsense.”

Fang Ling’er and Ye Xiaofei both stuck their tongues out and exchanged a glance before focusing on their meal.

Watching their mischievous expressions, Fang Yunshu didn’t feel as annoyed as before. She couldn’t help but sigh at how strong Ye Xiaofei’s genes were, as he had such a strong resemblance to Fang Ling’er.

Despite her hard work in raising Fang Ling’er for several years, besides her looks, the little girl didn’t seem to share many other traits, leaving Fang Yunshu feeling a bit frustrated.

After a while, Fang Ling’er looked up and pouted, saying, “Daddy, Mommy, Wang Xiaopang at our kindergarten is really annoying.”

Ye Xiaofei immediately widened his eyes and said, “If he bothers you, you should give him a good thrashing!”

Fang Yunshu kicked Ye Xiaofei and scolded, “What kind of example are you setting for our daughter? Teaching her to fight? Can’t you be more reasonable?”

Ye Xiaofei defended himself, “I’m just worried about our daughter being bullied. If girls are too delicate, those brats will take advantage of them. We shouldn’t give them any leeway.”

Fang Yunshu gave a disgruntled response, “Humph, you seem quite experienced. Have you been bullying girls a lot?”

Ye Xiaofei cleared his throat and said, “We were talking about our daughter. Ling’er, tell me, what’s the deal with this Wang Xiaopang?”

Fang Ling’er said angrily, “He keeps showing off to me, saying how powerful his daddy is. He even boasted about all the things his daddy bought this time…” Fang Ling’er gestured emphatically with both hands while continuing in frustration, “He also said that if 1 don’t play with him, he won’t let me use the things his daddy bought.”

Ye Xiaofei immediately got angry, “That fatty is actually threatening you? He’s asking for trouble!”

Fang Yunshu’s foot forcefully pressed onto Ye Xiaofei’s foot, silencing him. “Ling’er, why did that upset you?” asked Fang Yunshu gently.

Pouting, Fang Ling’er replied, “He said his daddy is so powerful, rich, and the most amazing daddy in the world. Of course, 1 couldn’t accept that. 1 told him my daddy was the sea god, but he mocked me and even told the teacher, who also didn’t believe me. They all made fun of me.”

Fang Yunshu said, “You know they are being childish, so you don’t need to care about them.”

Fang Ling’er pouted even more, looking as if she could hang a bottle on her lips, and said, “They don’t believe in my daddy, so 1 can’t accept it. Daddy, don’t you agree?”

Ye Xiaofei was about to speak, but he received another kick and had to keep quiet.

In a soft voice, Fang Yunshu said, “My dear daughter, your daddy is indeed amazing. But we don’t need to let others know about it. Truly remarkable people keep themselves hidden.”

“Oh,” Fang Ling’er glanced at Ye Xiaofei, playing with the rice in her bowl with her chopsticks, clearly still upset.

Ye Xiaofei couldn’t bear to see his daughter distressed and was about to say something, but Fang Yunshu abruptly stood up and gave him a stern look, saying, “Come with me, I need to talk to you about something.”

Ye Xiaofei followed Fang Yunshu into her room, and she closed the door firmly before saying, “Listen to me, you can’t handle this matter carelessly. We must not let our child develop a habit of comparing herself to others.”

Ye Xiaofei rolled his eyes and said, “Comparing is different from competing. This is a stage where children build their confidence. When 1 was young, because my family was poor and my parents passed away early, everyone looked down on me. As a result, I had no confidence and always kept my head down. Besides, our daughter already has autism, and her mind is fragile. We have to give her the courage to compete so she can develop self-confidence. That’s the only way to do it.”

Fang Yunshu felt his words made sense, but she couldn’t exactly pinpoint what was wrong either. After a brief hesitation, she said, “But isn’t liking to compare not good?”

Ye Xiaofei confidently responded, “Your understanding of this matter is wrong. This is just a form of competition. Don’t think that children don’t need to compete with each other. If you make a child feel stronger than anyone else from a young age, she will have strong confidence in everything she does. A person’s level of confidence is a key factor in whether she will succeed in the future.”

“She… She’s just a little girl. I just hope she’s safe and healthy, nothing more.”

“Foolish!” Ye Xiaofei stared at her and said, “Is our daughter an ordinary child? She has such powerful genes, and such an extraordinary existence. If you treat her like an ordinary child, you’ll be wasting her life. So, you must raise her like a genius.”

Fang Yunshu was finally convinced by Ye Xiaofei and asked, “Then what should we do?”
