Captured Hearts: The Substitute Bride’s Gambit

Chapter 395: Chapter 395 She is Also Loved by Her Mother

Ye Chuyi passed over another USB drive, "I have no more evidence of the kidnapping case, but I do have evidence for another case. This contains a video of Wen Nianyou hitting and killing someone with her car. At that time, Lin Yueqin was also in her car, but Lin Yueqin chose to cover for her. The reason behind this is that Wen Nianyou is actually her biological daughter."

"Shi Youjin killed someone before too, in order to protect his biological daughter, Wen Nianyou. Because those two people knew their secret, he had to silence them to ensure Wen Nianyou could always be the young lady of the Wen Family."

Zheng Yan couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows as he took the USB drive, inserted it into the computer port, and started to play the video.

Wen Nianyou was beside herself with rage, "Ye Chuyi, you shameless villain, may you rot in hell! I dealt with Shi Youjin for you, yet you stab me in the back! You explicitly promised me that you would delete the video of the car accident!"

Ye Chuyi showed a mocking smile, "This isn’t called stabbing you in the back, this is war by deception. Against someone like you, there’s no need to talk about integrity."

Zheng Yan had finished watching the video, and he tapped the desk, "It appears this isn’t just one case, but three separate ones."

A kidnapping case, a car accident case, and then there’s the case of Lin Yueqin and Shi Youjin, the couple who exchanged their own child for someone else’s child – that also constitutes a child trafficking case.

No matter what, this whole family could not escape now.

Ye Chuyi began to work on the reports for the other two cases, and Wen Nianyou was taken to the interrogation room for questioning.

By the time Ye Chuyi left the police station, it was already noon.

The assistant thought she wasn’t going to come, so hadn’t prepared her meal.

Ye Chuyi, holding her lunch box, was just about to head to the cafeteria when she saw Ye Jinyu arriving.

She approached with a touch of surprise and hugged her, "Mom, what brings you here?"

Ye Jinyu smiled tenderly, "I’ve come to bring you lunch. Have you eaten?"

Ye Chuyi shook her empty lunch box in front of her, "Not yet, I was about to go get some food from the cafeteria. It’s great that you’re here; now I don’t have to eat the bland staff meals!"

As she spoke, she pulled Ye Jinyu into her office and then shut the door.

Ye Jinyu took out the food containers one by one and arranged them on the table, "Try them and see if they suit your taste. If there’s anything you can’t eat, just tell me, and I’ll have the kitchen avoid it next time."

Ye Chuyi, smelling the fragrant lunch, smiled and said, "Mom, I’m not picky; I eat everything!"

After saying this, she took a sip of the corn chowder.

"Mmm, delicious!"

Then she took a bite of sweet and sour pork ribs.

"Wow, so tasty!"

Ye Chuyi ate rather voraciously, "Mom, the cook at grandpa’s house is excellent, the food is so delicious!"

Seeing her enjoy the meal, Ye Jinyu was relieved.

She took out a water cup from her bag, opened it, and handed it to her, "Eat slowly, don’t burn yourself. This is goji berry and jujube tea I brewed for you. The dates and goji berries are grown by your grandfather himself, and he hardly shares them with anyone. But when he heard I was brewing it for you, he gave me two boxes."

Ye Chuyi took the cup, had a sip, and then sweetly smiled at Ye Jinyu, "It’s really tasty, so sweet and refreshing. I really like it!"

"If you like it, I’ll brew it for you every day and bring it to you."

As Ye Chuyi smiled, tears welled up in her eyes. noveldrama

This was the first time she had felt the love of being treasured by her mother, and it was incredibly fulfilling.

As a child, she had always envied other kids who were doted on by their mothers. Her classmates had someone to pick them up on rainy days, but she was always alone. In high school, other students’ mothers would often bring them food and drinks, but she never had that.

Now, she finally had a mother to bring her meals.

She lowered her head and devoured all the food, then hugged the water cup and sipped slowly.

Ye Jinyu was somewhat at a loss; she had brought extra food, fearing Ye Chuyi wouldn’t have enough, yet she had still eaten it all.

She was filled with guilt, "Xiaoyi, did you not eat enough? I don’t really know how much you eat, so I didn’t bring enough this time. Tomorrow, I’ll bring you more. Just make do for today."
