Chapter 702: Chapter 706: Take the Opportunity to Squeeze a Few More Times
Members of the Gu family, the Ye family, and the Chi family quickly departed, leaving only Ye Bingjun’s family in the living room.
Ye Liu and Ye Ying quickly sent for the family doctor to treat Ye Weiyang.
A moment later, Ye Bingjun’s three sons and one daughter rushed back upon hearing the news. Upon learning of the trouble caused by Ye Weiyang and Ye Weizhi and Ye Mingquan’s decision to split the family, they all grieved as if they had lost their parents.
After more than an hour, a list arrived from the Ye family.
The person delivering the list was stern. It stated that those on the list could continue to work in the Ye Group, retaining their original positions. Those who were not on the list would have no connection with the Ye Group from then on, and would not be employed by them for life.
Ye Bingjun, trembling, took the list and passed it around to his children.
After one look, they all understood why it had turned out this way.
Seven people were listed, all of whom had gentle characters and had never offended Ye Xingbei, including Ye Liu and Ye Ying who had just been present.
Ye Liu and Ye Ying, not as beautiful or eloquent as Ye Tao, and less favored than their big sister Ye Tao who used to bully them since childhood, thus developed a temperament that was gentle and tolerant.
While they didn’t have much of a sisterly relationship with Ye Xingbei, they could still cordially greet her whenever they met, never having any disputes with her.
Among the remaining five, three were Ye Bingjun’s grandsons and two were his grandsons-in-law. All had a gentle disposition and had never bullied Ye Xingbei.
Neither Ye Bingjun’s three sons, three daughters-in-law, one daughter, nor son-in-law were on the list.
He realized that this was a consequence of his children failing to discipline their own children, allowing them to bully Ye Xingbei.
As for those seven, it was Ye Mingquan’s way of preserving the last bit of fraternal bonds between them. From then on, it would be hard for their branch of the family to take advantage of the Ye family.
What was even more serious was that once the news of the split was out, they would no longer be the esteemed members of the Ye family but just an ordinary family in Country Y.
He let go of the list, it fell to the ground, and he had a bitter smile on his face.
The saying, ‘what goes around comes around’ indeed holds true.
Who could have imagined that Ye Xingbei, who was once bullied by his own grandchildren, has not only become the Young Madam of the Gu family but is also greatly cherished by Ye Wuwei?
In life, it is best to be fair to everyone. One should never belittle others.
You never know, one day the bug that you step on might turn into a dragon in the clouds.
Unfortunately, he understood this too late.
Ye Xingbei returned to the Ye family with Ye Xingli, back to her previous room.
Ye Xingli stopped outside her room and said, “Go ahead and take a bath and change your clothes. The room is just as you left it. My dad and your Uncle Ye bought you a lot of new clothes and jewelry. Choose whatever you like after your bath. I’ll go to the kitchen and have them make you something nice to eat and some calming soup.”
Ye Xingbei chuckled at him, “Thank you, Brother Li.”
“Silly girl, what are you being polite for with me?” Ye Xingli ruffled her head then looked back apprehensively.
Luckily, Gu Junzhu hadn’t followed them. He must be downstairs chatting with his older brother.
Taking advantage of the absence of the Fifth Lord of Gu, he ruffled her hair a few more times. Satisfied, he pushed Ye Xingbei into the room, “Go take a bath quickly. There’ll be something good to eat when you’re done.”
Ye Xingbei took a hot bath and opened the wardrobe to find many new clothes indeed.
Her delicate fingertips traced over rows of new clothes, causing a flurry of emotions in her heart.
