Chapter 144 This Is Too Terrible

Ye Qinghe did not know her little actions had attracted the attention of the old man.

Even if she knew, someone as proud as her didn't mind.

Yes, Lord Ye Ye was very powerful. He could be said to be the top one person in the Lingnan business world.

But that was when he was young. Now, he was already old. When one was old, he would be powerless and let his imagination run wild, with an abnormal brain...

Wouldn't she be grateful to the Ye Family for nurturing her?

Ye Qinghe was naturally grateful. But her gratitude was also erased by Ye Family's unimaginable wealth.

She even hated the present Lord Ye a little. He had brought her back as his adopted daughter. Why didn't he just give her his property?

Why did he have to adopt two children? Wasn't this purpose of wanting her to fight with her brother?

Therefore, not only was Ye Qinghe not grateful to Lord Ye, but she also hated the entire Ye Family. This was especially the case when she returned from the capital city, Cloud City. This made her hate Lord Ye Ye more.

This old bastard. If he had been willing to arrange a marriage for her, she wouldn't have needed to spend so much effort.

Therefore, when faced with the servant who came to deliver the letter, she only replied I know faintly, and sent him away. Hei Ying's impression of this 'Young Miss' of his family worsened a little.

As a shadow guard guarding in the dark, he knew his duty was to protect the family head, prevent him from getting hurt, and carry out the order unconditionally.

However, he never liked Ye Qinghe.

He silently left Ye Qinghe's room but was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he leaped out of the pipe and arrived above Ye Qinghe's room.

A hidden guard who doesn't know how to climb a wall was not a good one!

"Qinghe, what do you think I should wear tomorrow to see Lord Ye? Also, should I wear necklaces or something? Why don't you lend me your set of Tiffany? If I wear poorly, won't you lose face in front of grandfather?"

Zhuang Mengmeng had already adapted to Young Miss' life over the past few days, with improving vision. Previously, she felt very happy when Ye Qinghe casually gave her clothes and bags. However, ever since she became Miss Ye, she found out how poorly she had lived before.

She always thought that it was luxurious for her mother to drink bird’s nest soup once a week. But in Ye Family, it was the maids' afternoon tea.

She had always thought that wearing LV and Dior's dress was very luxurious. However, before Ye Qinghe returned, she opened her wardrobe and realized the rich Young Miss was wearing specially-made clothes. Even the pajamas were designed by special designers. Not only did they accentuate her skin color but they also suited her shape, with excellent fabric.

Therefore, she aimed at Ye Qinghe's wardrobe.

She was very dissatisfied with her for deliberately not giving her good ones.

Of course, she did not intend to take the things in Ye Qinghe's cabinet. How could a real socialite wear the leftovers of others?

What she cared about was her face. Ye Qinghe did not think highly of her, and she would have to look up to herself. In any case, Lord Ye was back. When she got recognized and entered the Ye Family, wouldn't Ye Qinghe come to beg for her flavor?

"Yes, Miss Qinghe. We came here suddenly. Mengmeng didn't bring any jewelry with her. Her clothes are decent. But the jewelry is..." Xu Qingyun also agreed, with his face glowing with oil. It was obvious that he had eaten very well thanks to his wife these days.

Ye Qinghe almost vomited to death. Especially when seeing Xu Qingyun's exaggerated desire full of lust and disgust, she almost vomited the night meal yesterday. With the same surname Xu, how could there be such a big gap between them?

She thought back to the fleeting glance she had at Xu Family's headquarters. Xu Liancheng...was so beautiful.

If she could, she wanted to directly slap these two to death with a fly swatter.

But not now, she had to use them.

Enduring the disgust, Ye Qinghe opened the safe she had placed and said coldly to Zhuang Mengmeng, "You can choose whatever you want, but you can only choose one set."

"Don't be so stingy," Zhuang Mengmeng muttered. Facing Ye Qinghe's eyes of anger, she stopped herself from courting death and shut her mouth resentfully.

Although she did not say anything else, she was ruthless. She directly took Ye Qinghe's favorite and largest set of jewelry. The red diamond necklace alone was worth 1,000,000 yuan!

Ye Qinghe gritted her teeth as if hearing her heart bleeding.

"Then I'll go back first, Qinghe," Since coming to Ye Family, Zhuang Mengmeng had also begun to be proud. She didn't even need to use honorifics and directly called her Qing He as if she was the master of this place.

She called out in an incomparably carefree manner. Ye Qinghe felt like swallowing flies, one after another.

"Don't forget what you came here for. What can you say and what you can't say. Don't forget to be smart when you see grandpa tomorrow."

Before closing the door, Ye Qinghe put on a mocking smile. Seeing that Zhuang Mengmeng's face had become abnormally lively due to anger, she felt that the depression in her chest had dissipated quite a bit.

Hum—

Was she, Ye Qinghe, someone who could be snatched easily?

...

Early the next morning, Lord Ye, who had a good night's sleep, woke up early and even practiced Tai Chi in the courtyard.

Hearing he had left the main residence, Ye Family's eldest young master Ye Xiao, the adopted son of Lord Ye, immediately came to pay his respects.

Ye Xiao was thirty-three. He wore a Tang suit with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, looking elegant. However, his methods and style of doing things were not elegant at all. If one had to describe him in two words, it would be killing decisively.

Some people said he was like Lord Ye when he was young. He also thought this way and was proud of it.

But when he had been working in the Ye Family for so many years without getting any shares, he realized he might have worked in the wrong direction. The current Ye Family did not seem to need a ruthless heir.

Therefore, he began to work hard in the direction of a scholar. He read for two hours a day. In his briefcase, there was also a book and the latest English newspaper.

But his new character was quite successful. Several elders in the family had already expressed their support for him openly and privately. He had even recently come into contact with a socialite in Hong Kong. If he could marry the daughter of the gambling king, his position in Ye Family would be stable. The Ye Family cared about inheritance. He had never taken his cheap sister seriously.

However, he did not expect that.

Just as he was about to propose, Ye Qinghe played a big game and found Lord Ye's long-lost bloodline!

She was a girl!

If he wasn't married, he could still work hard, marry her, and take over the Ye Family justifiably.

But Zhuang Mengmeng was already married! She even brought her husband here. Although he heard that he was only a branch family disciple of the Xu Family, Luo City's Xu Family was very renowed. It was not very convenient for him to do something bad.

"Ah Xiao, why haven't you gone to the company today? Why are you here to eat with an old man like me?" Lord Yechuckled as he leaned on his walking stick.

As for his adopted son, he was sincerely nurturing him as the successor. He even considered handing the Ye Family over to him after he died.

Ye Xiao bent down slightly to make it easier for the old man who was already hunchbacked to talk to him. He adjusted himself to a suitable height before replying, "You have been away from home for half a month. Although I am a man, I still missed you."

"Haha," Lord Ye's hearty laughter rang out in the garden.

He patted Ye Xiao on the shoulder and said happily, "Good child, I didn't dote on you for nothing. I went out this time and brought gifts for you and Qing He. When I see that child, I'll give them to you."

"Alright."

"Then let's eat first. I also came back yesterday and haven't seen this Miss Zhuang," Ye Xiao deliberately tried to call Zhuang Mengmeng Miss Zhuang. When seeing that Lord Ye had no intention of correcting him, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief. However, he was also puzzled. Didn't he find her this time? However, Lord Ye didn't seem to be very happy. He didn't look like a person who loved recognizing his relatives.

"Well, then let's meet her together. Have you prepared a gift? If not, I'll get someone to get you one," Lord Ye was in a good mood and asked his eldest son.

As his loyal imitation, Ye Xiao naturally understood Lord Ye's temper. At this time, Lord Ye was happy, so it didn't matter what you did. If he didn't prepare a gift for his future niece, Lord Ye would have a problem if he didn't say it out loud.

"Of course, I have prepared one. I just don't know if she will like it."

"She can not refuse the bestowment of an elder. If she doesn't like it, I can help you educate her," Lord Ye said deliberately, looking at his eldest son with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

At the very least, in terms of etiquette, he really couldn't find anything wrong.

After the two had breakfast, Lord Ye directly went to the living room to wait. In his opinion, even if Zhuang Mengmeng and Zhuang Momo had no relationship at all, they grew up together with the same education. Zhuang Mengmeng should not be too bad.

However, very quickly.

Lord Ye Ye knew he made a mistake, a huge one.

For the sake of a stunning appearance, Zhuang Mengmeng's outfit today could be said to be grand.

The red evening dress was decorated with gold threads, and the dress was an off-shoulder design.

The dress was designed by a designer. If it was ugly, it was the designer's problem. But the problem was that no matter how good the design was, it wouldn't look good in Zhuang Mengmeng with her appearance.

Zhuang Mengmeng inherited her mother's shortcomings. She had dark skin. No matter how much she applied, she didn't look white. A dark person was not suitable for this kind of bright red in the first place. Forget it. The diamond chain on her neck and the ruby hairpin on her head were no good, either. How was she a socialite? She looked like a turkey.

That was right. She was like a turkey full of feathers during Halloween.

Thanks to Lord Ye's good self-restraint and strong acceptance, he was not shocked by the terrible appearance and smiled kindly.

However, this was too, too terrible...

The one who was the most upset was still Ye Qinghe. Only the heavens knew how many curious gazes she had suffered with Zhuang Mengmeng today. She wanted to dig a hole in the ground and bury her heart.
