Chapter 008 The Hypocritical Ye Family
After a strangely awkward breakfast, Ye Bai planned to go back to the Qin family with Qin Wanqing, but Yang Fenglan insisted that they stay for lunch.
Seeing that Qin Wanqing did not object, Ye Bai agreed.
While Ye Bai was showing Qin Wanqing around the Ye family mansion, the Ye family members gathered in the study and started a meeting.
Ye Wentian had to deal with Ye Group affairs and left first, leaving only Ye Xuanyuan, Yang Fenglan, and Yang Guangyao.
"Mom, Ye Bai and Qin Wanqing must be separated. He is just an adopted son and has no right to represent our Ye family in marriage!"
Ye Xuanyuan was no longer as out of control as he had been at the beginning, but his face remained ashen, and his eyes flashed with jealousy.
He simply couldn't remain calm. If Qin Wanqing had remained paralyzed, he would have had some regrets at most.
After all, compared to the rumored and terrifying fate of being a jinx to her husband, the pleasure of being intimate with a woman is far less important than her own life.
He never expected that Qin Wanqing would miraculously stand up after staying at the Ye family's house for one night!
He could still think about Qin Wanqing, who was paralyzed, let alone the Queen Qin who had recovered her health!
Ye Xuanyuan simply could not accept the idea of her becoming Ye Bai's woman!
He was especially certain that Qin Wanqing's recovery was entirely due to the Ye family's good fortune!
He used the Ye family's fortune to defy fate, but as the Ye family's biological son, he didn't gain any benefit. Instead, the benefits went to Ye Bai's adopted son!
For the selfish young master of the Ye family, this was even more painful than being killed!
From childhood to adulthood, all the good things in the Ye family belonged to him.
Even things he didn't like or was tired of, he would rather destroy than give to Ye Bai.
Not to mention, a woman as beautiful as Qin Wanqing!
"Xuanyuan, there's no need for you to be so angry. I think Qin Wanqing might just be having a final burst of energy before death! How can one's destiny be changed!"
Yang Guangyao offered words of comfort from the side.
He never believed in any superstitious or mystical things; he only believed in power and currying favor with influential people.
"Guangyao, do you mean that Wanqing's recovery is only temporary?"
Yang Fenglan's expression changed, and she asked nervously.
Yang Guangyao grew up following her around since he was a child. The two not only had a very deep relationship, but also always trusted each other.
"Anyway, I've never heard of such a thing."
Yang Guangyao shook his head.
Yang Fenglan said worriedly, "If that's really the case, Xuanyuan, let's wait. A husband-killing fate is no joke..."
She only has one son, Ye Xuanyuan, so of course she wouldn't dare to take any risks.
"If we wait any longer, it will be too late! I'm pretty sure that Qin Wanqing was able to recover because she borrowed the fortune of my Ye family!"
"Mom, have you forgotten? That expert said that as long as the Ye family's fortune remains, everyone connected to the Ye family will benefit greatly!"
Ye Xuanyuan snorted angrily.
He didn't care whether Qin Wanqing was a virgin or not, but he was worried that she and Ye Bai would develop feelings for each other over time!
He had to separate the two as soon as possible; he couldn't wait even a day longer.
The thought of Ye Bai sleeping with the beautiful Qin Wanqing every night gave Ye Xuanyuan a crazy urge.
That woman originally belonged to him! Yet, she was snatched away by a piece of trash like Ye Bai!
"Let me talk to Xiaobai..."
Yang Fenglan sighed helplessly, but finally agreed.
She doted on Ye Xuanyuan to the extreme, so naturally she couldn't refuse her son's request.
Moreover, if Qin Wanqing's fate of bringing misfortune to her husband is truly not a problem, she would naturally want the other woman to become her own daughter-in-law even more.
……
Ye Wentian still hadn't returned by noon.
Lunch was left for only five people, but it was still a lavish affair, with all sorts of delicacies, showcasing the Ye family's extravagance.
"Xiaobai, this time when you come back, you and Wanqing should stay at home for a few more days. It's a good time to keep your mom company; she misses you a lot."
Yang Guangyao said hypocritically.
Although he did not approve of Ye Xuanyuan getting involved with Qin Wanqing, he also knew that he did not have much say in the Ye family.
All he could do was try his best to please the Ye family, especially his own nephew.
That's the future leader of the Ye family!
Therefore, if Ye Xuanyuan wanted to win Qin Wanqing's heart, he could only try his best to help.
If Ye Bai and Qin Wanqing could stay a few more days, the chances would undoubtedly be much greater.
"I'm sorry, we have to go back after we finish eating. There are still many things to take care of at the Qin family."
Before Ye Bai could speak, Qin Wanqing shook her head.
Being allowed to stay overnight at the Ye family's house and have lunch before leaving was already a great honor for her.
She was only staying there because Ye Bai had healed her leg; otherwise, she wouldn't want to stay even for a moment longer.
"So anxious..."
Yang Guangyao frowned, about to say something more, when Ye Bai suddenly smiled and said, "Second Uncle, I'm taking the books from my room to the Qin family. I heard you've been quite interested in studying ancient books lately. Would you like me to leave you a few?"
A look of panic flashed across Yang Guangyao's eyes, and he quickly shook his head, saying, "My education level is too low; I can't even get to the basics. I'd better not."
"Okay, I'll take them all. Give me a call if you need them."
Ye Bai nodded, his eyes deep and unfathomable.
"Wanqing, now that you're better, you should be able to continue taking over the Qin Group. If you need any help then, just let me know, and I'll do my best to help."
Ye Xuanyuan looked at Qin Wanqing, his eyes still burning with desire.
"Thank you, but it's not necessary."
Qin Wanqing replied coldly, not even bothering to glance at Ye Xuanyuan.
"I believe in your abilities, Wanqing."
Ye Xuanyuan forced a smile, but inside he was furious and felt an increasing urge to pin this bitch down on him.
"Xiaobai, have you finished eating? Come with me to the study, Mom has something to tell you..."
Sensing that the atmosphere was becoming oppressive again, Yang Fenglan stood up and said.
"Ok."
Ye Bai nodded, put down his chopsticks and bowl, and followed behind Yang Fenglan.
"You've grown up so much, you're even getting married and having children now..."
Inside the study, Yang Fenglan helped Ye Bai straighten his collar, her eyes slightly red.
Ye Bai smiled and said, "Mom, don't worry, I'll try my best to let you hold your grandson as soon as possible."
Yang Fenglan shook her head and said, "Mom isn't in a hurry, as long as you're doing well. It's just that the Qin family has always been arrogant and condescending, and I'm worried they might bully you..."
Ye Bai comforted her, "It's alright, Mom, don't worry. With the Ye family backing me up, the Qin family won't dare to go too far."
Yang Fenglan remained silent for a long time, then sighed and said, "What I fear most is that Wanqing will treat you badly. She's always been domineering, and you'll suffer if you're with her..."
Ye Bai laughed and said, "Mom, you don't need to worry about that at all. Wanqing loves me to death now. She serves me tea and water every day. She wouldn't even dare to stand up if I asked her to kneel!"
"...Okay, anyway, if they bully you, just tell Mom right away, and Mom will stand up for you!"
"If all else fails, we can cancel the engagement. You're a young master of the Ye family; you won't have trouble finding someone better!"
Yang Fenglan forced a smile, which looked worse than crying.
