Ye Mu Fan nodded seriously. “Grandma, I understand.”
The old man spoke up as well: “You and Wanwan should learn from Yiyi. If the two of you were half as capable as her, your grandmother and I wouldn’t have to worry so much. You’re a grown man, yet you’re not even comparable to a girl – aren’t you ashamed, huh?”
Ye Yiyi was sitting next to Tan Yi Lan and she said gently, “Grandpa, grandma, Wanwan and Mu Fan are still young. They just haven’t gotten to the right frame of mind yet; you guys don’t have to be so worried.”
Ye Hong Wei sneered and glanced at Liang Wan Jun. “With such parents, how could I not worry?”
Ye Mu Fan clenched his fists and suppressed the anger inside him. He didn’t blow up right there and said, “Grandpa, grandma, I’ll work hard and if I don’t make something out of my life, I won’t come back!”
Ye Hong Wei nodded and looked satisfied. “This is the right attitude. Grandpa and grandma will wait to see your success.”
This was the first time he openly expressed that he would give Ye Mu Fan another chance.
Which meant that if Ye Mu Fan’s performance was satisfactory, he could return to the Ye family anytime…
Ye Shao An scoffed softly. “Hng, I’m afraid he won’t be able to come back forever!”
Ye Mu Fan grinned widely and turned to him. “Second uncle, you don’t have to worry about that. You should quickly investigate and find out who tried to frame me. I’m still waiting for second uncle to find the real culprit and seek justice for me!”
“You…”
…
Dinner was over.
At the door, Ye Yiyi walked them out and said warmly, “Mu Fan, you won’t blame jie jie for not speaking up for you today, right? That person who disguised as you really looked like you – I couldn’t even tell!”
Ye Mu Fan sneered. “Jie jie? Whose older sister are you? How come I didn’t know that my mother gave birth to an older sister?”
Ye Yiyi’s expression turned ugly immediately. “Mu Fan, what are you talking about… I’m your… your older cousin!”
Ye Mu Fan nodded like he just gained enlightenment. “Oh, so you’re my cousin! I thought I was already a very good actor, but compared to you, I’m nothing!”
Ye Yiyi initially wanted to pretend to be a good person, but in the end, she was so annoyed that her face turned pale.
Liang Mei Xuan’s high-pitched voice came from behind her: “Yiyi, come here. Why are you speaking to that piece of garbage? Aren’t you afraid of stooping to their level?!”
Liang Mei Xuan’s gaze brushed past the two of them in disdain. “Tsk tsk, I’m glad you guys know Yiyi is your cousin. You guys better not try to claim relations with her!”
Ye Mu Fan dug his ear. “Same goes to you!”
Liang Mei Xuan ridiculed him: “Ye Mu Fan, you think you can come back by simply acting pathetic and placating the two elders, huh? Let me tell you – as long as I’m in the Ye family, your family can stop dreaming of returning! Just go and be a slave for that Shen family’s small lousy company!”
Hearing Liang Mei Xuan bringing up the Shen family, Ye Mu Fan’s face darkened as the nauseating image of Shen Meng Qi and He Jun Cheng in the hotel appeared in his mind and he thought about how stupid he had been these two years.
At this moment, Ye Wanwan chuckled lightly and looked disdainfully at Liang Mei Xuan. “I think second aunt should worry about herself and cherish the days of being the young mistress of the family because she won’t be for much longer anymore.”
“Wow, little girl, you can really talk big, huh!”
Then Ye Shao Ting and Liang Wan Jun came over.
Ye Shao Ting was surprised to see that Liang Mei Xuan and Ye Yiyi were there as well, so he strode over and stood protectively in front of Ye Wanwan. “Wanwan, what are you guys chatting about?”
