Ye Zhifan didn’t expect his daughter to have the guts to rush over when the car engine had already started. This fearless spirit... was just like him. He looked at the person who had probably guessed what he wanted to do. She was clearly frightened as her face had turned white but she was still able to elaborate the main points clearly...
“It’s my fault. Dad, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have disobeyed you. I shouldn’t have kept targeting Ye Jian. I shouldn’t have put myself in a situation with no route of retreat. Dad, I was wrong. I was really wrong.”
Ye Ying was really scared that she would be abandoned. She knew that her father was someone who meant what he said. He was also someone who had the ambition to climb higher.
Especially after she discovered the person who was supporting her father secretly. She remembered the piece of jade in front of her chest. This jade was able to change her identity. Ye Ying was afraid that Ye Zhifan would give this piece of jade to Ye Jian. If she was abandoned, Ye Jian would benefit from it!
At this moment, Ye Ying was afraid but her mind was clear. She knew that even if she was beaten up today, it would be worth it.
Everyone says that a daughter understands her parents the best. They were right. Ye Ying had really guessed Ye Zhifan’s thoughts. Indeed, if the piece of jade was able to make him climb higher in his official career, he didn’t mind returning it to Ye Jian.
This thought disappeared in his mind almost instantly after it was formed. How could he give the piece of jade back to Ye Jian? His relationship with his niece was bad. They were like enemies. If Ye Jian took the jade and turned into a princess, he would be the first she laid her hands on.
Most importantly, the person behind this jade was able to let him turn from an unknown village leader into a government official with real power in the city within a few years. How could he not know of Ye Jian’s presence and... his family’s attitude towards Ye Jian?
The person didn’t blame him for keeping the jade and not returning it to Ye Jian. Instead, he even helped him secretly in his official career. Until now, he didn’t understand what the person behind this piece of jade was thinking.
However, there was one thing he was sure about. The person didn’t care who the owner of this jade was. Even if he didn’t return this jade to Ye Jian at all, he would be fine!
He looked at his daughter who was afraid but still had some courage and guts. Ye Zhifan pushed open the car door with a cold face. He didn’t say anything when he got down. He just raised his hand and slapped her.
Slap! The sound of the slap could be heard clearly at this time of the night. It was so loud, the driver, who had walked away for some distance, turned around instinctively to take a look. Then, he walked even further. He was afraid that he would offend this Chairman Ye who was rumored to be participating in the fight for the position of the vice city mayor again.
This slap was very powerful. It was so hard Ye Ying fell down and scrapped her hands on the ground. Blood streaks appeared on her hand due to the abrasion. Her hands were burning in pain.
The right side of her face was turning red at a visible speed. But, she didn’t cry. She just heaved a sigh of relief secretly. She bit her lips and staggered as she stood up under the cold gaze.
“I’ve told you many times that you can’t touch Ye Jian yet. You must bear with it. Yet, what did you do? You didn’t control yourself and even helped her to become an idol of everyone in your class.”
“She left the school for one year but still managed to come back smoothly. She even got into Provincial No.1 Middle School easily and jumped one grade. I reminded you again and again that you mustn’t have any conflict with Ye Jian. Even if you want to target her, you must make use of other people.”
“But, you are stupid enough to turn yourself into the enemy of all your classmates. Even the military unit has a bad impression of you! Yingying, you really disappointed me!”
