Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 563: Fig Leaf

Xu Huizhen was furious, feeling that she was losing control over Ye Fei.

Back in Ye City, whenever she wanted to hit Ye Fei, when did Ye Fei dare to fight back?

"Oh, great! You’ve grown some guts, haven’t you? Five years in City B, and your wings are hardened. I can’t control you anymore, can I!" Xu Huizhen shouted, "I’m educating you, and you dare to fight back?"

"Are you trying to hit me?" Xu Huizhen suddenly let go and leaned her face towards Ye Fei, "You’ve gotten so skilled that even as your mother, you want to hit me, is that it?"

"Come on, hit me! Just hit!" Xu Huizhen pushed her face closer, pointing at her own cheek.

"What are you making a fuss about!" Ye Dezhang helplessly pulled Xu Huizhen to the side, "Ye Fei has finally come back, can’t we say what we need to nicely? Does it have to be such a fuss?"

"No matter the anger, we ought to understand each other clearly first!" Ye Dezhang said helplessly.

"Did mom never tell you why I left?" Ye Fei said.

Xu Huizhen’s expression changed upon hearing Ye Fei say this, wondering if Ye Fei had found out something.

Could it be that Ye Fei knew about the scheme against her back then?

That’s why she ran away without a word and didn’t contact us for all these years.

To guard against them plotting against her again.

Ye Dezhang froze: "Said what? Did your mom know?"

"Mom and sis both know." Ye Fei retorted mockingly.

"What nonsense are you saying!" Xu Huizhen immediately shrieked, interrupting Ye Fei, "You don’t even know why you ran away, making us search for you all these years, and what else do you want to say?"

"How you teamed up with Ye Ning back then to drug me and made me pass out, sending me to an unknown old man’s bed, wanting me to have his child to get money for you all!" Ye Fei shouted.

"You’re talking nonsense! We didn’t!" While Ye Fei said this, Xu Huizhen was also shouting desperately, trying to drown out Ye Fei’s voice.

But Ye Fei had already prepared, her voice was even louder.

She now put herself as a shrew from the streets, completely disregarding her image.

Anyway, the role she played today was just like this.

No matter how Xu Huizhen shouted, Ye Fei did not stop.

Not letting Xu Huizhen interrupt her words, and raising her voice even if her throat hurt, Ye Fei did not lower her voice.

"You’re talking nonsense! You yourself ran away, and now you’re wronging me and your sister?" Xu Huizhen said, flushing red.

"This... this..." Ye Dezhang was troubled.

Whom should he believe?

Ye Fei suddenly burst into tears, holding Ye Dezhang’s hand, saying: "Dad, you must take a stand for me!"

"I’ll never forget, five years ago, I was just helping out at our family diner. That night Ye Ning finished work and went to the diner, saying she wanted to drink with me. After just one glass of wine, I passed out." Ye Fei pointed at Xu Huizhen.

"It was mom, with Ye Ning, who took me to a hotel intending to deliver me to Boss Liu." Ye Fei said, "Luckily, I was fortunate. Unknown as to where they bought fake drugs, I woke up early."

"At that time, Boss Liu was already in the room, but hadn’t had the chance to touch me. When I tried to run, he of course wouldn’t let me go. He told me everything mom and Ye Ning did."

"He said, my mom and Ye Ning gave me to him! As long as I had a child, he’d give them 10 million."

"Of course I wouldn’t do it! No matter the money offered, I’d never agree, even if they gave me a hundred million!" Ye Fei said, "So I struggled fiercely, injured Boss Liu, and seized the opportunity to escape."

"Ye Ning wanted money to expand the family diner, why didn’t she accompany Boss Liu herself instead? Yet she drugged and sent me to Boss Liu?" Ye Fei shouted.

"Besides, if you want money, earn it with your own hands, work honestly! She wants the family diner to grow bigger, then help out properly! She herself spends extravagantly outside, ignoring the family affairs, and talks about expanding the diner?"

"Your sister is out there socializing, using her brains!" Xu Huizhen said, "And how do you know she hasn’t tried hard. Now the family restaurant is big, all thanks to your sister’s efforts, and what have you done?"

"All these years while you enjoyed life in City B, your sister was the one filial to us, supporting us. For family matters, and the family restaurant, you haven’t contributed a bit, how can you falsely accuse your sister!" Xu Huizhen pointed at Ye Fei’s nose.

"If things were as you said, how would the family restaurant have its current success!" Xu Huizhen rebutted.

"Yes, I heard Shi Jiumei say, our family now has high-end restaurants, earning lots of money." Ye Fei holding Ye Dezhang’s hand said, "Dad, haven’t you wondered where Ye Ning got the money for the restaurant?"

"Our old little diner used to earn how much a month, you know clearly in your heart. Did we win some big lottery to suddenly elevate the restaurant to such a level overnight?" Ye Fei asked.

"Opened at the center of Ye City, the restaurant’s scale increased, hired top-notch chefs, professional waiters, could directly provide for your retirement. This isn’t just running a small diner, the upfront investment is considerable for such a scale of a restaurant."

"Not just the renovations, including costs for ingredients, staff, these can’t be recouped within two or three years. It takes substantial family wealth to support this."

Ye Fei sneered: "Dad, haven’t you asked where they got this money?"

"Our family lived poor for half a life, with no wealthy relatives, how could it be overnight, we suddenly had so much money?" Ye Fei suddenly shouted, "That’s all money made from selling me!"

Ye Dezhang suddenly stiffened.

Before, he also asked, where did Ye Ning get so much money?

Xu Huizhen just said, Ye Ning had the ability to bring in investment.

Before Ye Ning never helped at the family diner, but always managed affairs outside, meeting investors.

To be able to pull in so much investment.

Ye Dezhang thought himself inexperienced, unable to discern whether Ye Ning was truthful.

But maybe Ye Ning truly had such ability?

Moreover, subconsciously, he hoped the family would become wealthy.

So despite suspicions, he kept them hidden.

Only to live life even more comfortably and at peace.

But now, Ye Fei tore away the veil of secrecy.

Forcing Ye Dezhang to face this problem.

To rethink all the doubts of the past.

"Pah! Don’t flatter yourself!" Xu Huizhen noticed Ye Dezhang’s expression wasn’t right, immediately said.

"Don’t you dare erase Ning Ning’s efforts! Clearly she found investors outside, got the investment!" Xu Huizhen said.
