No one would believe that it was Ye Hongguang’s own idea to slander Shen Miao.

Shen Miao rolled her eyes at Xie Jingxing. “What’s there to come clean about?

Apart from Ye Mei, who else can it be?”

Ye Mei could fool others with her small tricks, but not Shen Miao.

“Then why are you not happy?” Xie Jingxing pinched her face. “When you saw that kid today, you were very strange. Is there anything I don’t know?” He narrowed his eyes.

Shen Miao pushed his hand away. “Do you still remember the dream I told you about? In the dream, I had a son and a daughter.”

Xie Jingxing paused and looked at her seriously.

“The first time I saw Ye Hongguang, I felt that he was too similar to the son in my dream. I actually thought he was the son in my dream. However, he stood on Ye Mei’s side and helped her slander me. To be honest, I was very sad.” Shen Miao said, “But later, I took a closer look and realized that he’s not exactly the same as my son. They just look alike. Speaking of which, now that I think about it, they only look 70 to 80% alike. There are still many differences.”

After coming back to her senses from the initial shock, Shen Miao had been paying attention to the beautiful young man. At first glance, he looked almost no different from Fu Ming, but their personalities were completely different. Because Fu Ming had never received father’s love from Fu Xiuyi, he had been especially mature since he was young. Fu Ming was generous, honest, and kind. Fu Ming had a quality that an outstanding crown prince should have. However, the child in front of her was just an ordinary young master of an official. Perhaps because of his disability, he had low self-esteem. Fu Ming would not lie, and Fu Ming would not stand by Ye Mei’s side, nor would he help Ye Mei deal with her. Most importantly, when Shen Miao stood in front of the child, her heart didn’t fluctuate. If it was really Fu Ming, she could feel it, and her heart would not be so calm.

Ye Hongguang was not Fu Ming, but he looked very similar to Fu Mingsheng. She was almost bewitched, but she quickly regained her rationality. There was no one who understood her son better than her. This disappointed Shen Miao, but at the same time, she heaved a sigh of relief. If Fu Ming really became a member of the Ye family in this life, the Ye family would use him to deal with Shen Miao. That would be the last thing Shen Miao wanted.

“Similar?” Xie Jingxing was puzzled. “Is that why you’re especially kind towards him?”

“That’s probably the reason.” Shen Miao said, “Looking at that face, I can’t bring myself to hurt him. Moreover, you also know that the culprit is someone else. Ye Hongguang was just used by someone. I’m afraid he doesn’t lie often. It’s just that I’m very puzzled.” Shen Miao said, “If it was really Ye Mei who did it, then why? Why did Ye Mei push Consort Jing down? This is not her style of doing things.” Xie Jingxing smiled. “Or perhaps it was just an accident?”

“An accident?”

At the same time, Ye Mei and Ye Hongguang were getting into the carriage and on their way home.

Ye Hongguang had been feeling very uneasy. The servant carried him into the carriage. He sat beside Ye Mei. Ever since Ye Mei got into the carriage, she did not say a word to him. Just as Ye Hongguang was about to speak, Ye Mei suddenly said, “Third Brother, what did you say to Princess Consort?”

Ye Mei had a smile on her face. This smile was no different from usual, but for some reason, Ye Hongguang felt a little afraid. He hesitated for a moment and said softly, “I told her I’m sorry..”
