Chapter 12 : Yan Mian, You're Fired
Bai Jingyan's dark eyes were as cold as the night, filled with a chilling frost.
"If anything happens to Chenchen, I will never let you off."
His tone was as calm as ever, but she could sense his murderous intent.
Her whole body tensed up, and Yan Mian pinched her arm to regain her senses.
She wanted to catch up with Bai Jingyan, but Yan Feifei stepped in her way.
"You've gone too far. How dare you use such malicious means to hurt my child? Leave the Bai family immediately!"
She stood her ground, exuding the aura of a mistress.
Yan Mian clenched her palm, and in her desperation, she pushed her shoulder.
"Get out of my way!"
She wanted to leave? Didn't she care about Chenchen's life?
Yan Feifei was pushed back, but before she could react, Yan Mian had already rushed upstairs.
Stamping her foot in frustration, there were no servants to listen to her and drive Yan Mian away. All she could do was follow her upstairs.
In the room, Yan Mian took out a portable medical kit she always carried with her, mixed the medication, and skillfully injected it into Chenchen's arm.
Chenchen's gasping finally eased a bit. Without any pause, Yan Mian continued to administer the medication.
After a series of procedures, sweat started to bead on her forehead.
Finally, she took out a bottle of ointment from the compartment of the medical kit and carefully applied it to Chenchen's body, lifting up his clothes.
Yan Feifei stood behind Bai Jingyan, her malicious gaze fixed on the back of Yan Mian's head.
She took a few steps forward and snatched the ointment.
"Don't touch my son!"
Her protective motherly appearance was convincing, and Yan Mian stumbled back, hitting the wardrobe.
With an impatient expression, she tugged at her clothes and said nothing.
At that moment, Bai Jingyan spoke coldly.
"Yan Mian, you're fired."
It felt like a thunderbolt had struck, and Yan Mian was stunned for two seconds before immediately explaining.
"Mr. Bai, I didn't put the peanut butter there!"
She refused to accept this baseless accusation.
"You made the sandwich, and this is the result."
Bai Jingyan's attitude was truly infuriating.
Yan Mian's body tensed up, and Bai Jingyan stared deeply at her before leaving the room without saying another word.
Beside the bed, Yan Feifei was overjoyed in her heart. The servants gradually left the room, leaving only the two women behind.
With a triumphant smile on her face, Yan Feifei no longer pretended to be gentle and graceful.
"Aren't you leaving yet?" she asked.
Yan Mian's face turned cold. "Yan Feifei, you're so heartless. You would harm your own son just to frame me?"
She had guessed it right. In the Bai family, she couldn't think of anyone else who would plot against her.
Yan Feifei was completely caught off guard by Yan Mian's insight. Although her shock only lasted for a second, it was enough for Yan Mian to capture it.
She took a few steps forward, looking down at the woman in front of her.
"Don't you know? There are surveillance cameras installed in the kitchen."
"What?" Yan Feifei stood up abruptly.
Yan Mian said, "As an outsider, I can freely enter and leave the Bai family now. Mr. Bai has to be cautious."
This explanation was reasonable, and Yan Feifei's face turned pale in an instant.
She opened her mouth, but couldn't say a word.
Yan Mian sneered, "Do you want me to keep your secret?"
She had her own plans. If Bai Jingyan wanted to fire her, she wouldn't object. Her target in the Bai family was Yan Feifei, and now she had the perfect leverage.
Yan Feifei sensed her intentions and clenched her teeth. "What do you want?"
"Who was the man that night four years ago?"
She needed Yan Feifei to give her an accurate answer. Dou Bao's illness needed to be resolved as soon as possible.
When Yan Feifei heard this, her heart skipped a beat. As an actress who had been in the entertainment industry for four years, she quickly suppressed her emotions and sneered.
"What's the matter? Did that night's experience leave such a lasting impression on you? Do you want to relive it?"
Although it was a sarcastic remark about Yan Mian's promiscuity, there was also a strong sense of jealousy in her voice.
A cold light flashed in Yan Mian's eyes. "It seems you're not willing to negotiate."
She turned around to leave, and Yan Feifei felt a sense of frustration, as if she had bitten her teeth and swallowed them.
"Stop!" She quickly blocked Yan Mian.
"It was Wang Cheng!"
She wanted to stabilize Yan Mian first before figuring out how to deal with the surveillance.
Unexpectedly, Yan Mian suddenly laughed.
It was a loud and beautiful laugh.
"You're so foolish. I made up that lie on the spot, and yet you fell for it."
Another twist, and Yan Feifei's heart sank to the bottom.
"Yan Feifei..." Yan Mian elongated her tone and held her chin with her fingertips.
"We have a long way to go. You owe me, and I want you to repay everything!"
Her hatred, her grievances, her years of suffering and heartache.
She would make the Yan family pay the price!
And she wasn't just saying it!
