That embrace was what Ye Zi had always longed for.
Now, it was occupied by Ye Ning.
She had always restrained her desires to appear considerate, and just holding hands made her feel satisfied.
However, now Mu Yeli was actually holding Ye Ning, taking her hand, pulling her into his arms, kissing her on the forehead...
Thinking of this, Ye Zi felt as if bitter waters were pouring out, and she felt incredibly distressed.
She was itching to rush out, yet she endured it and steadily retreated, quietly leaving the room.
...
When she got home, she angrily said, "Damn Ye Ning... Why won't she just die!"
Having learned that Ye Zi had gone to see Mu Yeli, and seeing her state, Lin Shu knew their plan had failed and that Ye Zi probably didn't get any comfort from Mu Yeli.
