Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 572: Sell Me Off Again

"Ye Fei, do you have any conscience?" Xu Huizhen snapped, "That money isn’t yours, and you know it."

"I don’t know, but I do know you sold me for 10 million. If that money isn’t mine, whose is it?" Ye Fei sneered.

Fortunately, to confirm if she was the person from five years ago, Zhao Gushen had Xiao Ruofeng investigate it.

And he accidentally exposed everything about Ye Ning.

Making it clear to her about Ye Ning’s situation.

Now Ye Fei could leverage this against Xu Huizhen, making her too scared to speak out.

"You’ve never given a penny to the family, and now you want to demand money from us? Don’t you have any shame?" Xu Huizhen raged, pointing at Ye Fei, "You went to college for nothing, still mooching off us!"

"Even if you’re living poorly in B City, so what? Before we met, you couldn’t survive? You managed for five years just fine. Now that you see us living well, you want money?"

"You’re such a leech!" Xu Huizhen scolded, "Go out and ask, where else does someone your age still demand money from their family to be supported?"

"Aren’t you afraid people will criticize you behind your back for that?" Xu Huizhen ranted.

Ye Fei simply replied, "Then return that 10 million to me."

"Pah!" Xu Huizhen almost exploded, "What 10 million? There’s none! I said it’s not yours, so it’s not yours!"

"Dad," Ye Fei called out again, "Look at Mom’s attitude. If you don’t want to give it to me, just say no. Why make Mom the bad guy?"

"You know, ever since I was little, when has she spent any money on me?" Ye Fei chuckled.

"Forget it, I won’t trouble you anymore." Ye Fei sighed.

"No!" Ye Dezhang immediately denied.

"Xu Huizhen! Are you ever going to stop?" Ye Dezhang glared at her.

Xu Huizhen weakened a bit and said, "Where could we have saved up 500,000?"

"You know what our situation was like before, we only saved up 300,000." Xu Huizhen explained, "Later when our situation improved a bit..."

Xu Huizhen dared not say ’rich’, so she said, "When things got slightly better, I just kept this money saved without touching it. Although I haven’t spent it, I also haven’t added to it."

"Because Ning Ning usually takes care of the daily expenses, there was no need to use the savings. I figured the savings could just be left in the bank to earn interest, even if we didn’t add more, it’d be enough for our retirement. And besides, Ning Ning is there too. She wouldn’t ignore us, right."

"So, I saved it for the longest term, five years." Xu Huizhen said, "Rolling it over every five years. When it matures, I just roll it over again."

"I just renewed it earlier this year, meaning it won’t mature for another four years." Xu Huizhen reluctantly glanced at Ye Fei, "Even if I wanted to give it to her now, I couldn’t take it out."

"If I have to withdraw it midway, the interest would be wasted." Xu Huizhen said, "Can’t possibly waste so much interest, can we."

"And even if we withdraw it, we’re still short 200,000." Xu Huizhen sneakily glanced at Ye Fei’s reaction.

Ye Fei covered her face and started sobbing, "Wah wah wah."

"I didn’t say anything before because I didn’t want to pressure the family. But now that the family has money, am I not even worthy of a little benefit?" Ye Fei dared not uncover her face.

Otherwise, they would find out she was fake crying.

So she kept her face buried in her palms, "500,000, and I’ll never bother you again."

"That’s just nonsense." Ye Dezhang quickly said, "How could we not take care of you? Besides, do you intend to stop being part of the Ye Family for life?"

"It’s just that we really can’t take the money out now, waiting for three years is also impossible." Ye Dezhang said.

Xu Huizhen’s eyes rolled about, and she said, "Since you’re living so hard in B City, why not come back to Ye City with us!"

"Your job doesn’t require you to be on site anyway, just cooking and filming videos. It’s all the same anywhere." Xu Huizhen said, "Coming back with us won’t interfere with your work. Better than renting such a shabby house and living so tough here, right?"

"Weren’t you complaining it’s too hard for you here? Come back home with us." Xu Huizhen suggested, "Living at home, you don’t have to pay rent, which saves a big expense."

Xu Huizhen thought she was really smart.

If Ye Fei said she had no money.

Then she should come back home with them.

In Ye City, they could keep a close watch on Ye Fei.

And see how much she really made as a blogger.

Even though the cost of living in B City is high, the money she earns barely covers basic living expenses.

But Ye City is different.

She could seize all the money Ye Fei earned!

After all, Ye Fei living at home would require household contributions, right!

Ye Dezhang thought Xu Huizhen had spoken the most sense this entire time.

So he immediately said to Ye Fei, "Yes, why don’t you come back with us."

Ye Fei wiped her face, miserably responded, "Going back to remind myself constantly how I was schemed and sold back then?"

"And then keep guarding against being schemed and sold again?" Ye Fei looked at Xu Huizhen, "Mom, by asking me to go back, are you planning to target my earnings?"

Ye Dezhang stiffened, suddenly suspiciously looking at Xu Huizhen.

Xu Huizhen abruptly got angry and said, "Why would I scheme against you!"

Ye Fei’s eyes lit up, and she said, "Then if I go back, do you promise not to ask me for a cent?"

"Living at home, eating home-cooked meals, and not paying living expenses?" Xu Huizhen immediately responded.

"Dad, see, Mom still wants my money." Ye Fei spread her hands, "Probably wants to take all my earnings and sell me again."

"I wouldn’t dare to go back. I’d rather suffer here in B City than go back." Ye Fei stated, "Dad, don’t you think in the past five years I endured so much here because I couldn’t go home? Why did I leave in the first place?"

"Wasn’t it because I was worried at home I’d have no way to live? I’m lucky to have escaped once. Can I keep being lucky enough to escape every time? Constantly living in fear, wary of your own family, what’s the point of living?"

"I’d rather live a harder life, face some hardship, as long as I have peace of mind!" Ye Fei bluntly said.

"Stop, just stop." Ye Dezhang couldn’t bear such words, "I get it now."

"I... I have 5,000 a month, anyway, I don’t spend much. I could save 2,000 each month." Ye Dezhang said, "I’ll transfer you 2,000 every month."

"Though 2,000 isn’t much, it might relieve some pressure from your rent." Ye Dezhang added.

"What’s the rent for your place now? Use it to add on top and get a better living environment." Ye Dezhang suggested.
