Ningchuan.

A certain upscale apartment.

Sun Xiaoting's face was full of anger as she stared at the person in front of her.

"What gives you the right to do this!" Sun Xiaoting shouted.

"Because you only have two choices," Sun Yue said coldly, throwing two documents on the table. "These are investigation documents and enforcement documents. Your company has been involved in serious tax evasion and there are large amounts of unknown funds. See for yourself!"

Sun Xiaoting glared at Sun Yue, picked up the documents from the floor, and began to read them carefully.

The more she read, the darker her expression became, and the uglier her face grew.

Because the documents were very clear, detailing every missing penny down to the last detail.

This time, it was a thorough investigation!

But Sun Xiaoting still couldn't believe it, "No! This is impossible!"

She kept thinking that Ye Kai would guarantee her and help solve her company's problems.

Moreover, she knew that the investigation into their company had been stopped before.

How could the results be out in just one day?

"No way! I don't believe it! What about Ye Kai? Didn't he notify you? Didn't he tell you to stop investigating our company?" Sun Xiaoting said.

"Ye Kai?" Sun Yue chuckled lightly, snatching the documents from Sun Xiaoting's hands. "I have already conveyed the message! You only have these two choices: first, immediately leave Ningchuan and live in a small town or village for the rest of your life, never to be seen by us again; otherwise, the consequences will be beyond what you can bear! Second, handle it legally and wait for trial."

After speaking, Sun Yue walked out with the documents, saying to Sun Xiaoting as she left the room, "You only have one day to consider. Think it over carefully!"

After Sun Yue left, Sun Xiaoting collapsed onto the sofa, her face pale.

Could it really end like this?

Is her life going to be defined like this?

Sun Xiaoting thought about it, unable to accept a mundane life for the rest of her days.

With this thought, Sun Xiaoting quickly pulled out her phone to call her parents.

Since she didn't have Ye Kai's contact information before, she could only contact her parents.

"Hello, the number you have dialed is unavailable..."

Hearing this message, Sun Xiaoting felt a wave of despair.

She was now almost certain that Sun Yue was telling the truth!

But... she didn't want to accept it!

Sun Xiaoting looked at her finely renovated house, unable to imagine how bleak her life would be if she left this lifestyle.

In the end, she pinned all her hopes on the principal and Yang Chen.

Right away, Sun Xiaoting left the room and drove to Baihua Kindergarten.

But when she arrived at the kindergarten gate, Sun Xiaoting saw only a closed door.

No one was there.

She wanted to call Yang Chen, but his phone was already off.

She wanted to call Chen Siyan but realized she hadn't saved Chen Siyan's number.

She thought of the principal but remembered she had deleted the principal's number long ago.

At this moment, Sun Xiaoting looked at the kindergarten in front of her, feeling particularly panicked, as if she was drowning, gasping for air...

Finally, Sun Xiaoting thought of Ding Yutong.

Immediately, Sun Xiaoting called Ding Yutong.

"Hello, Yutong, do you know where Yang Chen is?"

"I don't know."

"Then what about Chen Siyan?"

"Yes!"

"Where?" Sun Xiaoting was delighted and asked quickly.

Ding Yutong hesitated for a moment before asking, "Do you... have something urgent with her?"

The last incident had already put Ding Yutong in a difficult position, and after learning about what happened, she felt incredibly guilty. Now, receiving Sun Xiaoting's call, she couldn't help but be cautious.

"I have urgent matters with her. Tell me quickly where she is!" Sun Xiaoting was nearly commanding Ding Yutong.

Ding Yutong, being a university teacher, was no fool and naturally heard it.

"Sigh!" Ding Yutong sighed and said to Sun Xiaoting, "Sorry, they have already left for Jin Chen."

"Going to Jin Chen? What are they going there for?"

"Sorry, I don't know about that."

"Then give me Chen Siyan's number, quickly!"

"Sorry, I can't give it to you!" Ding Yutong said.

Sun Xiaoting was stunned, "Why?"

Ding Yutong sighed again, saying to Sun Xiaoting, "Sorry, Xiaoting, I have something to do, I have to hang up now."

"Beep beep beep!"

The sound of the busy signal came from the phone.

Sun Xiaoting stood frozen, listening to the busy signal, standing there blankly, not even realizing that she'd yet to place the hung-up phone down, still holding it to her ear.

At this moment, Sun Xiaoting felt as if the whole world had betrayed her, and even her best friends had abandoned her.

"Is this what it means when the tree falls and everyone pushes?" Sun Xiaoting sneered, threw her phone hard on the ground, and cursed, "You're all bastards! Liars! You've deceived me my whole life and ruined it!"

After shouting, Sun Xiaoting collapsed to the ground...

She knew her life... was over...

...

Earlier, someone had found their way to Ding Yutong's home, standing in front of the two.

"Are you Chen Siyan?" The visitor smiled broadly, her round face looking particularly cute, especially with her crescent-shaped eyes that made one feel very fond of her.

Chen Siyan looked at the adorable and explosive-looking girl in front of her, and asked, "You are..."

"You can call me Little Fairy!" Little Fairy said with a smile.

Hearing this name, both Chen Siyan and Ding Yutong looked at each other, feeling as if the name "Little Fairy" was meant for them.

Chen Siyan sized up Little Fairy from head to toe and cautiously asked, "So... Little Fairy... why are you looking for me?"

"It's like this!" Little Fairy smiled, "Yang Chen had agreed to take you on a trip, right? Now Yang Chen and Ye Xin have encountered some trouble. They're in Jin Chen and might need to stay there for a while, so Ye Xin asked me to bring you to Jin Chen. You can have fun there for a few days, and after their issue is resolved, they'll take you on a trip elsewhere."

Chen Siyan immediately asked suspiciously, "How do you know this?"

Ding Yutong also held onto Chen Siyan and said to Little Fairy, "Do you have any evidence to prove your identity?"

Little Fairy smiled, "You can video call Ye Xin now. She can explain everything to you."

"Alright!" Chen Siyan nodded, taking out her phone to video call Ye Xin.

Ye Xin quickly answered the video call, saying to Chen Siyan, "Yanyan, you and Little Fairy come over, and bring your sister Xueqing, too. You can enjoy a couple of days in Jin Chen first. Then your brother and I will take you on a trip."

"Oh, sister Xueqing, that's great!" Chen Siyan believed completely upon seeing Ye Xin. She glanced at Ding Yutong and immediately said to Ye Xin, "Can I bring Sister Yutong along too?"

"Of course! Bring Sister Yutong with you to have fun!"

"Mm-hmm! Okay!" Chen Siyan said happily as she ended the call.

Chen Siyan looked toward Ding Yutong.

Ding Yutong shook her head and said, "I won't go. I have to prepare my promotion thesis, and time is tight."

"Then... okay!" Chen Siyan said somewhat disappointedly.
