Special Agent Rebirth: The Omnipotent Goddess of Quick Transmigration novel Chapter 1238

Chapter 1238: Side Story 12: The Pharmacist is Exposed, First Encounter

Minister Shen had been around the block and was no fool.

He had noticed Su Lan early on, and after Ye Shaohua left, he merely greeted Su Lan out of politeness. When he heard that Su Lan was Ye Shaohua’s mother, he instinctively gave her some respectful courtesy.

But now that he thought about it carefully, he realized something seemed off.

Was Ye Shaohua’s attitude toward Su Lan somewhat cold just now?

Thinking this, he couldn’t help but take another look at Su Lan, and his smile faded considerably, "So Mrs. Ye doesn’t know what her daughter is doing?"

Su Lan felt a bit awkward, her smile awkward and hesitant, unable to get the words out.

On reflection, she had been devoted entirely to Ye Tong, and since Ye Shaohua had returned, she indeed hadn’t tried to understand her...

Seeing Su Lan’s embarrassing expression, Minister Shen pretty much understood.

"Perhaps Mrs. Ye could ask her daughter when she has the time. I have some other matters to attend to." He nodded at Su Lan and, without the warmth of before, left the place rather coldly.

Su Lan stood still for quite a while, only snapping out of it when her phone made a noise.

She glanced at the message on the phone, a flash of malice in her eyes.

An hour later.

Beijing Prison.

Ye Tong sat behind the separation glass. In just over a dozen days, she no longer resembled the Young Lady of the Ye Family, her face worn, as if she had aged several years, and looking very haggard.

Her lips were somewhat pale as she sat in the wheelchair, dazed, until a shadow fell in front of her and she suddenly looked up. Seeing Su Lan’s undisguised look of disgust, Ye Tong sneered, "What do you want? To gloat?"

Su Lan stared intently at Ye Tong. The Ye Tong of now lacked her usual grace and elegance, her face was marked by sharp acidity, and she bore a sullen air of defeat.

However, Su Lan’s gaze no longer held the pity it once did for Ye Tong.

"Do you now regret believing my words back then? Such a shame, Ye Shaohua won’t forgive you, will she?" Ye Tong, sitting in the wheelchair, raised her head to look at Su Lan and said softly, "I won’t just die here in prison."

And there was a hint of expectation.

"Of course, there are some things I’d like to clarify before you meet your end," the Butler said with a mild smile, very polite.

Ye Tong suddenly looked up, realizing something, and gripped the wheelchair tightly, "What did you say?"

The Butler smiled faintly, "You nearly harmed Young Lady Ye, and the higher-ups are very angry."

"Are you joking with me?" Ye Tong pursed her lips, scoffing, "From start to finish, I haven’t done anything, nor have I truly harmed anyone. The Ye Family might have sent me to prison, but surely they can’t meddle with things here..."

Ye Tong had always believed that as long as she was alive, there was hope.

"The Ye Family naturally can’t," the Butler gazed gently at Ye Tong, "but the status of Young Lady Ye is sufficient."

"Her?" Ye Tong was dismissive, "What kind of status could she have..."

"Ye Tong, do you remember how Ye Li, the Young Master, was seriously injured and helpless?" the Butler looked at Ye Tong almost pityingly.

A flash of realization struck Ye Tong, "Because of Doctor Nan... Does Doctor Nan truly know Ye Shaohua?"
