You

After Yang Youwei left, Ye Yao stood up and looked at Ye Tianhao, saying, “I’m afraid you’re not in the mood to eat this meal, right?”
The man gave his daughter a frosty stare and demanded, “Why did you do this? I am your father!”
Ye Yao objected, “Shouldn’t you ask yourself that? Think about it. How did you treat me even when I was being obedient and easygoing in the past?”
Ye Tianhao was furious. “Haven’t I treated you well enough?”
“You did. In fact, so well that I felt that an orphan was better off!”
As Ye Yao turned around to leave, Ye Tianhao grabbed her. “Yang Youwei revoked the shares, but the money in your bank card is still there. That money is mine. Give it back to me.”
Ye Yao laughed. Ye Tianhao was still thinking about that sum of money? She took out her phone and clicked on it a few times. Then, she showed the phone screen to Ye Tianhao. “I’ve already donated the money in my bank card to the welfare agency. Look, there’s not a single cent left in it. You can stop thinking about it.”
The man’s expression darkened. “Ye Yao, what exactly do you think you’re doing?! You’d rather donate all the money than give it to me, right?!”
Ye Yao shrugged. “You just realized this? Dad, let me remind you. Sooner or later, you’ll be deserted by everyone.”
After leaving the restaurant, Ye Yao contacted Huo Buyu immediately. “Where are you? I can go over and have dinner with you.”
Huo Buyu’s tone was cold. “I’ve eaten.”
Throwing a tantrum again? Ye Yao blinked. She should be the one in a bad mood. At this thought, she muttered, “Right now, rainy weather would be the perfect match for my miserable mood.”
As soon as she had said this, raindrops fell from the clear sky. At the same time, Ye Yao’s phone rang. It was Huo Buyu! She beamed with joy at once. “Can we eat together now?”
Huo Buyu was so angry that his liver hurt. As he looked at the rain outside the window, he wished he could strangle Ye Yao to death. “I’m at the Western restaurant. Come over yourself.”
“Okay.” She picked up her bag and walked happily towards the Western restaurant. Even the thought of Huo Buyu looking most unpleasant did not spoil her good mood.
As expected, Huo Buyu’s expression darkened the moment he saw her. Ye Yao went forward and put her arms around Huo Buyu’s neck, kissing him on the lips. “Darling, I’m starving!”
Huo Buyu’s mood eased a little from Ye Yao’s kiss, but he looked gloomy nevertheless. “Why are you still alive after saying that you were starving to death?” Wasn’t she a verbal virtuoso?
Ye Yao rolled his eyes. “If I starve to death, you’ll be left without a wife.”
“Then I’ll get a replacement whom I don’t have to worry about so often,” Huo Buyu said
Ye Yao’s eyes widened. “Huo Buyu, what do you mean? Do you want to break up?” What did he mean by getting a replacement whom he didn’t have to worry about so often ? Men were indeed fickle! If he dared to replace her, she’d curse him so that he’d be without a girlfriend for the rest of his life!
Huo Buyu felt that he must have owed Ye Yao in his previous life so that it was now payback time for him. His face was cold. “I’ve placed an order. Didn’t you say you were hungry? Hurry up and eat then.”
Ye Yao immediately beamed with joy and sat down. Huo Buyu had already set up his cutlery in advance.
Huo Buyu asked, “How was your conversation with your father?”
“How else could it have gone?” Ye Yao mumbled as she ate. “We’ve fallen out.” Not only had they fallen out, but she had also cursed him to be abandoned by everyone in the future. He was so ruthless to his own daughter. Ye Tianhao was not worthy of happiness.
Huo Buyu had nothing to say about Ye Tianhao. He had never seen such a ruthless father.
After eating with Huo Buyu, Ye Yao had to return to school for military training. Because of Gao Qiao’s help in buying and transporting water in the morning, Ye Yao had become famous among the freshmen. No matter where she went, she would receive strange looks. It was uncomfortable to be stared at that way. Ye Yao frowned and asked Lin Qingning, “Is there something on my face?”
Before Lin Qingning could answer, Ye Sui’s voice floated over. “There’s nothing on your face. You’re just thick-skinned!” She walked over, crossed her arms, and looked at Ye Yao. “I’m quite curious. Ye Yao, you didn’t even take the college entrance examination. How did you get into the Imperial Capital University? Did you get in through the back door?”
Ye Yao looked at Ye Sui and then noticed the people around pointing at her. She came to understand. Imperial Capital University was a famous university. The students who could enter here had excellent results. Moreover, Imperial Capital University was not an institution that took bribes. It was impossible to gain entry using money. Of course, this was not an absolute. If one put an insane amount of money on the table, the university would still open a back door to people such as Ye Sui..
