Ye Chutang's eyebrow lifted slightly. "Mingze, why would you say such a thing?"
Ye Mingze stared at her indignantly. "You're still denying it? If it wasn't you, then who else could it be!? You've clearly hated my mother for a long time, and you seized this opportunity to ruin her face!"
Not a trace of anger showed on Ye Chutang's face. Instead, she shook her head gently.
"Mingze, I can understand your concern for Second Aunt, but this truly has nothing to do with me. You say I hold a grudge against her, but I've only been back in the capital for a few days. What grudge could I possibly have?"
"It's because you—" Halfway through his sentence, Ye Mingze finally noticed Shen Yanchuan standing to the side, and the rest of his words caught in his throat.
'He had wanted to say that Ye Chutang must have done this to get revenge for Xiao Wu, but in front of an outsider, that was something he could never say!'
He gritted his teeth. "In any case, the most likely person is you!"
