Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life-Chapter 846 - 835: Dog-Blood Substitute Life
"Grandma, Dad, Mom!" Ye Qiu’s eyes instantly reddened upon seeing her family from afar, and she threw herself into Han Mei’e’s embrace. Jiang Xiuqing also affectionately patted her daughter’s head, while Ye Yuejin just watched eagerly.
Ye Qiu felt deeply moved, yet she was also concerned about their health: "Didn’t I just call you yesterday? How did you arrive today? Dad, are you tired from driving?"
"Not tired, not tired, I brought a driver with me this time," Ye Yuejin chuckled foolishly, quite unlike his usual shrewd businessman persona.
"Would you like to rest first or eat? I should call Brother."
Ye Yuejin curled his lips: "Why call him? He’ll just scold me later on."
Sure enough, when Ye Chao found out that his father had left the family business behind to come here on a whim, he nearly cursed: "Dad, at least inform me beforehand. What is this all about? Our partners were expecting to discuss a collaboration with you today."
Ye Yuejin replied sheepishly, "The company isn’t just mine, isn’t it? There’s still you and Vice President Li."
"I’m here, and Vice President Li thought you were still at home preparing for a briefing. Who would have known that not only are you missing, but your phone is also unreachable."
Ye Yuejin pulled out his phone and his smile froze for a moment: "I forgot to charge it yesterday."
Jiang Xiuqing was also furious, twisting his ear: "Is this how you told me everything was arranged?"
"Gently, gently." Ye Yuejin pleaded, "The kids are all here, give me some face."
"You still care about face, leaving such a big company behind just like that."
"It’s because I’m worried our daughter will be taken away." Ye Yuejin muttered, and Jiang Xiuqing let go. Indeed, compared to their daughter, what is the company worth? Besides, nothing significant will happen in such a short time.
"Alright, since your dad is here, you handle the company matters." She waved grandly, passing the task to her son.
"Me!" Ye Chao was furious, "Again it’s me."
"Who else but you? We raised you and sent you to school for so many years, so you can inherit the company." Ye Yuejin said smugly, shifting the burden.
"Sister is much smarter than me, why should it be me? I refuse."
Ye Qiu grinned: "Brother, you forgot, I have other goals. I don’t plan to inherit the company."
Hearing her mention her goals, Ye Chao suddenly felt a bit hungry, dismissing the argument: "Sis, Grandma and Mom and Dad must be hungry. Let’s go buy some groceries and cook at your apartment."
As soon as he suggested this, the other three immediately looked at Ye Qiu expectantly, obviously craving her cooking.
But for her family, what could she do? Of course, she pampered them.
The family first happily went to the market to pick their favorite dishes, and then returned satisfied to Ye Qiu’s apartment to await their meal, so it was no surprise that Li Wen Yin found herself empty-handed.
Since the family rarely gathered, they naturally indulged in food and play, whether intentionally or unintentionally, temporarily ignoring the possibility that Ye Qiu’s biological mother might show up.
Although Province C is an economic powerhouse, being coastal, it still has many delightful places, and most importantly, the seafood is delicious. After eating by the seaside, they even bought more to let Ye Qiu prepare different dishes.
But what needs to come will come. On Monday, as they were sending Ye Qiu to school, the family encountered Li Wen Yin and Shen Mingcheng, who had been waiting at the school gate.
"Hello, Mr. Ye, I’m Shen Mingcheng. Here’s my business card. I’d like to know if you and your family have some time as I have some matters I’d like to discuss," Shen Mingcheng greeted, first glancing at Ye Qiu before handing a business card to Ye Yuejin. Despite his polite demeanor, the Ye Family was somewhat displeased with his attitude.
However, the sadness in their hearts overshadowed their impressions of him, and Jiang Xiuqing, although unwilling, still said to Ye Qiu, "Go ask your teacher for leave."
"Okay." Ye Qiu nodded, gently nudging her head against her.
Seeing this, Li Wen Yin’s eyes suddenly reddened. This was her daughter, who was supposed to be acting coquettishly with her, but now it was for another woman.
"Hello, I’m Li Wen Yin, and..." She glanced at Ye Qiu, struggling to find the words to say she was her biological mother. Seeing Ye Qiu’s closeness to her adoptive mother, she felt tongue-tied. It was ultimately their family’s fault for losing a daughter for over ten years, and now wanting to reclaim her. If she were in Ye Qiu’s shoes, she would also feel resentment.
"Hello." Jiang Xiuqing nodded coldly at Li Wen Yin. Seeing her red and swollen eyes, she couldn’t help but feel a pang of sympathy, but she was mostly angry. Why come back now after leaving them behind? Who is she showing this sad face to? If her mother-in-law hadn’t gone out visiting neighbors on a bitter winter day, Ye Qiu might have frozen to death in the snow.
"I’ve reserved a private room at a family restaurant; let’s go there to talk." After Ye Qiu called for a leave of absence, Shen Mingcheng made a gesture of invitation, with several luxury cars already parked nearby.
Seeing this, a surge of anger rose again in Ye Yuejin’s heart. Do they think they really can’t refuse?
"No need, we have our own car." With that, he called their driver, and within minutes, a specially requested stretch limousine appeared in front of the crowd, ready to make a statement.
Shen Mingcheng glanced at the license plate, his pupils shrinking slightly, and sighed softly. It seemed that this reunion was not going to be as straightforward as he imagined. Is the Ye Family intentionally flaunting their wealth, or are they just showing off?
"Shen Family Restaurant?" Ye Yuejin chuckled, "Is this owned by Mr. Shen?"
Shen Mingcheng humbly replied, "Just one of the stores, I’m afraid it might amuse Mr. Ye."
"One of the stores, it seems Mr. Shen is quite well-off!" Ye Yuejin scoffed lightly, as if he cared at all. So rich yet they threw away their daughter and now return to claim her, what a joke!
"In recent years, we’re transitioning. While we still run the restaurant, the company’s focus has gradually shifted to hotels," Shen Mingcheng "subtly" revealed his family’s wealth.
At this, not only the Ye Family but even Li Wen Yin felt uncomfortable. They were here to seek reconciliation, not flaunt wealth!
"Hotels, oh, very upscale," Ye Yuejin remarked sarcastically. They’re all in business; is there really such a thing as one kind of business being more upscale than another?
Shen Mingcheng also felt like he was talking cross-purposes, realizing that discussing this with nouveau riche types wouldn’t get them anywhere. But for his daughter’s sake, he would endure it for now.
