If it weren't for so many people present! If it weren't for their coveting of the Ye family's wealth! Ye Xinghe's actions just now would have already driven Chu Mofan to tear her to pieces!

He kept telling himself he had to be patient! One day, he would make Ye Xinghe kneel before him and beg for mercy! He would repay the Ye family's disgrace tenfold today!

Chu Mofan suddenly realized something was wrong! He hadn't seen Ye Xinghe wear her necklace for quite some time. Could there be something wrong with the necklace?

He lowered his eyes slightly and gave a wry smile. "What can I do? I'm her brother Mofan! I have to spoil him."

Upon hearing this, Ye Xinghe instantly got goosebumps, and the hairs on her body stood on end.

Chu Mofan composed himself and gazed tenderly at Ye Xinghe. "Why aren't you wearing the necklace I gave you? Don't you like it anymore?"

Ye Xinghe raised an eyebrow slightly, and a plan immediately came to her mind.

She smiled slightly, "That necklace was too heavy; wearing it all day made my neck hurt. So I put it on my bedside table."

"However, the effect is indeed quite good. My sleep has improved a lot. How about Brother Mofan gives me another one?"

Su Nanqing, who hadn't spoken for a while, suddenly became interested. "What kind of necklace is it? Does it even help with sleep?"

"Yes!" Ye Xinghe looked at her, then left her seat. "Wait for me a moment, I'll go back to my room and get it for you to see."

Before Chu Mofan could react, Ye Xinghe had already entered the house, and he couldn't stop her even if he wanted to. He didn't know if there would be any problems if an outsider touched that thing.

So he took out his phone and secretly sent a message to Jiang Yan.

He was relieved to see that Jiang Yan said she was alright.

As soon as Ye Xinghe stepped into the villa, she called Qiao Lin over, and the two of them went upstairs together.

"Qiao Lin, let's hurry. The mooncakes Su Nanqing brought must not be served at dinner, and Aunt Mei and the others must not eat them either. Find a place to hide them first."

"One more thing, do you have anything on hand that can make Chu Mofan suffer without dying, but will make him wish he were dead, and the hospital won't be able to find out what's wrong with him?"

Ye Xinghe saw Qiao Lin staring at her with wide eyes and a look of surprise. She waved her hand and said, "Never mind, you go and deal with the mooncakes that Su Nanqing brought."

All that was heard was Qiao Lin slowly saying, "How did you know I had such a thing?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Ye Xinghe's eyes. "You even have something this tricky?! You're practically my Doraemon!!"

Qiao Lin, hands on her hips, a smug look on her face, said, "Just you wait and see! The effect will be exactly as you described!!"

Ye Xinghe took the necklace and quickly returned to the backyard, placing it in Su Nanqing's hand. "This is it."

At this moment, Hua Qingmeng finally understood why Ye Xinghe insisted on bringing the pendant's outer casing back with her.

Su Nanqing held it in her hand and examined it carefully, then weighed it in her hand. "It is indeed quite heavy. But the design is a bit strange, and the material looks very ordinary. What brand is it?"

Chu Mofan interrupted, "It's not a designer brand. I had someone get it from a temple."

"Xinghe doesn't sleep well at night and always has nightmares. This is just right to calm her nerves and help her sleep."

"Oh?! At night? Is it that effective?" Su Nanqing raised an eyebrow at Ye Xinghe, a malicious smile on her face.

Ye Xinghe immediately saw through the meaning behind Su Nanqing's smile. She wasn't interested in the necklace itself; she was interested in Chu Mofan buying it for her.

Ye Xinghe didn't want her to bring up the topic, so she asked, "Sister Nan Qing, are you having trouble sleeping?"

“You work so hard every day, I thought you must fall asleep as soon as your head hits the pillow.”

"Are you under too much pressure?"

Just as Su Nanqing was about to speak, Ye Xinghe took her hand and said with concern, "Let me recommend an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor to you. He specializes in conditioning the body. Young people like us often eat greasy and spicy food outside, so our bodies are all somewhat sub-healthy..."

“Xinghe,” Su Nanqing interrupted her with a smile, “I’m more interested in your necklace.”

"Could you please ask your brother Mofan to get one for me too? You won't mind, will you?"

Ye Xinghe looked at her without changing her expression, and didn't answer her question. "By the way! Which of you two is older? You're the same age, what month were you born in?"

"May." Su Nanqing thought to herself, how did it get to her birthday month again!

However, she didn't suspect anything. After all, Ye Xinghe had just eaten chocolate and was in a state of excitement, so she was capable of asking any questions.

On the other side, Chu Mofan also spoke up: "I am from February."

Ye Xinghe patted Su Nanqing's hand, then pointed to Chu Mofan, "He'll be your brother Mofan from now on. Just tell him what you want."

"Don't be shy. Brother Mofan is a very nice guy. He even bought my classmate a limited edition ring that cost nearly 10 yuan before!"

Hua Qingmeng couldn't help but laugh and quickly lowered her head.

Although Chu Mofan didn't want to spend money, he naturally wouldn't miss the opportunity to get close to the chairman's wife of the Hua Group.

He smiled at Su Nanqing, "Miss Su, there's no need to call me Brother Mofan, I'm already prepared to give you this gift."

"I'll tell my friends after the holiday."

Su Nanqing gave a polite smile, inwardly cursing, "That idiot Chu Mofan! I was trying to help him build a relationship with Ye Xinghe, and he couldn't even tell! No wonder Ye Xinghe looks down on him! What a blockhead! Now I don't even have a way to steer the conversation back to that topic."

At this moment, Qiao Lin came to the backyard and stood next to Ye Xinghe. "Miss, the meal is ready. You can eat now."

Ye Xinghe tugged at Qiao Lin's hand, trying to stand up.

Suddenly she felt something poking her palm. She looked down and saw a small white pill.

She smiled faintly and invited everyone to come in and eat.

Qiao Lin whispered to her, "It dissolves quickly in water and is colorless and odorless."

Ye Xinghe's lips were slightly parted, her teeth clenched tightly. "I still don't know how the seating will be arranged. What if I'm far away from him and don't have a chance to drug him?"

Qiao Lin used the same way of speaking, "Don't worry, I'm here. I still have one left."

Ye Xinghe continued, "If the two of us drug him together, won't he be in danger?"

Qiao Lin casually remarked, "It's nothing serious, just that I'll be a cripple for the rest of my life."

After saying that, he quickly walked in front of Ye Xinghe and pulled out a chair for her.

Ye Xinghe sat down gracefully, casting an approving glance at Qiao Lin. "That's fantastic! That couldn't be better!"
