The Lady of the Prestigious Family is a Big Boss-Chapter 753, Meeting with a Strange Man (2)
"No need, Mohan and Uncle cook delicious meals, let them do it," Ye Jiuliang said.
After all, there were plenty of ingredients at home to make lots of tasty things.
"Your uncle is coming over for dinner, and having him cook doesn’t seem quite right, does it?" Ye Yuan expressed his concern.
Ye Jiuliang raised his eyes to look at him, feeling his nervousness as if he was about to meet the parents, and couldn’t help but laugh.
"It’s fine, Uncle himself said he wanted to eat at home, and he wants to cook. If you don’t believe me, ask him tonight."
"Really?" Ye Yuan asked, half believing and half doubting.
Ye Jiuliang nodded seriously.
Ye Yuan finally relaxed, "So where do we go now?"
Ye Jiuliang thought for a moment and smiled, "To eat."
Ye Yuan naturally had no reason to disagree with his little cotton-padded jacket’s words.
He stretched out his hand to open the car door, Ye Jiuliang got into the car, and after making sure she was seated, he then closed the car door.
Afterward, he walked around to the other side, got into the car, and drove off.
Haven’t been back to the capital for a long time, Ye Jiuliang missed the dishes from Jiangyue Restaurant the most.
It wasn’t evening yet and Jiangyue Restaurant wasn’t very busy, so Ye Jiuliang didn’t ask the manager for a private room and simply decided to dine in the main hall on the first floor.
Visiting regularly, she knew most of the restaurant’s signature dishes, and it didn’t take long to place her order.
Ye Yuan scanned the surroundings and looked back at Ye Jiuliang, "Do you own this place as well?"
Ye Jiuliang shook her head, the corners of her lips curled into a smile, "This is something Mohan and a friend of his set up together."
Feng Yi owned half of the shares here as well. She heard them say it was just for fun, to have a convenient place to eat.
"Dad, are you planning to visit the Ye Family?"
The topic was inevitable; after all, the various disputes of the past years were inextricably linked to the old master. Sooner or later, they would have to face each other upon return.
Ye Yuan’s gaze deepened, and after a moment’s silence, he said, "In a few more days."
He was definitely going to pay a visit to the Ye Family. Having reclaimed the identity of Ye Yuan, he couldn’t keep the news of his being alive a secret for long.
In the past few days, he had also had someone investigate the Ye Family’s affairs over the years, including the matter of Ye Yan getting dealt with by Ye Jiuliang.
As for Ye Yan’s well-being, he didn’t want to know. Anyway, his Ajiu had already avenged him, and that was enough.
He knew Ajiu had spared the Ye Family out of consideration for his mother and him. As for the old master, he would let him handle it himself.
"Dad, there’s another thing, Mom’s spirit tablet has been taken back to the Ming Family by Uncle and me," Ye Jiuliang suddenly remembered she had forgotten to tell him about this.
Ye Yuan’s face darkened, "Did the Ye Family’s people do something excessive?"
He knew all too well how hypocritical they could be, willing to lose all conscience for their own benefit. If she could take away the spirit tablet, surely something must have happened.
Ye Jiuliang briefly explained the reason to him, and after listening, Ye Yuan’s complexion turned even grimmer.
Such a Xiang Zhen, daring to mock his wife’s spirit tablet, and even brazen enough to let Ye Yan throw it into a landfill.
It seemed the first thing he should do upon returning to the Ye Family was to "pay her a visit."
The manager here recognized Ye Jiuliang, so the dishes were served quickly. While they were chatting, all the dishes were on the table.
"Dad, the food here is quite good. Try some," Ye Jiuliang said, changing the subject, not wanting these matters to ruin his mood.
Seeing his daughter’s smile, Ye Yuan’s expression warmed a few degrees.
He picked up his chopsticks, and Ye Jiuliang curled her lips, recommending dishes to him.
The sight of the father and daughter enjoying their meal together would be interpreted quite differently by others.
Feeling bored at home, Ye Xin invited some friends to come out to eat and didn’t expect to run into Ye Jiuliang the moment she walked in.
Especially since she discovered Jiuliang laughing and eating with a strange man, it was as if Ye Xin had stumbled upon some earth-shattering secret, like she had caught Jiuliang’s handle, and a mocking cold smile curled up at the corner of her lips.
She straightened her back, swaggering over with her slender waist twisting.
"I thought I had mistaken someone else for you, Ye Jiuliang, but it turns out it really is you."
The sing-song tone was enough to make anyone feel displeased upon hearing it.
Ye Jiuliang paused with her chopsticks, turned her head to see who was speaking, and with a lift of her eyes, hooked up a somewhat rogue-ish smirk.
"I thought I heard the voice of some fly, turns out it’s you."
Being compared to a fly, the smug smile on Ye Xin’s face collapsed, and her eyes glared at Ye Jiuliang with a fierce light.
"You..."
"You what? Don’t try to assert your presence in front of me. If you want to eat here, behave yourself, or I can have you thrown out right now," Ye Jiuliang said casually, putting down her chopsticks.
If this were the past, Ye Xin might have slinked away in defeat, but today, having caught Ye Jiuliang in a clandestine meeting with another man, she felt an instant surge of confidence.
She glanced at Ye Yuan with a side-eye and sneered, "Ye Jiuliang, you pretend to be so noble in front of others, but behind their backs, you’re still a flirt. What if Li Mochan finds out you’re secretly meeting with other men here? Do you think he’d divorce you immediately?"
A clandestine meeting?
Ye Jiuliang raised an eyebrow, her gaze playful as she looked at Ye Xin.
No wonder she was so brazen today; she thought she had something on her.
It seems she still hasn’t learned her lesson; why only grow hair and not intelligence?
Ye Yuan listened to Ye Xin’s words, his expression turning cold in an instant, and he began to examine Ye Xin more seriously.
Her appearance looked quite familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before.
Just then, Ye Jiuliang’s voice rose from across the table, "Ye Xin, if you want to tell him, then go ahead. It’s all the same to me. Do you know Li Mochan’s phone number? Do you need me to call him for you?"
Ye Xin?
Ye Yuan instantly realized why she seemed familiar; her face bore a resemblance to Xiang Zhen, about five or six points similar. She turned out to be Ye Yan’s daughter.
However, how had that little girl from back then become so sharp and mean-spirited?
"Ye Jiuliang, don’t play calm here, rest assured, I will definitely tell Li Mochan about what I saw today, so he won’t be fooled by your hypocrisy," Ye Xin said triumphantly, convinced that Ye Jiuliang was merely putting on a brave front.
"Then please hurry and tell him, but you probably don’t have his number. Before that, you’ll have to meet him in person," Ye Jiuliang said, leaning on one hand and looking at her with a half-smile.
"He’s at the company for a meeting today. Why don’t you go wait outside MK Group’s headquarters now? You might get a chance to see him."
Watching her nonchalant expression, Ye Xin felt a twinge of uncertainty in her heart.
She stared at Ye Jiuliang, trying to find even a trace of panic on her face.
But the result was disappointing. Not only was there no sign of panic, but there wasn’t even the slightest hint of nervousness.
"Ajiu, let’s eat. The dishes are getting cold," Ye Yuan said, happy to play along with his daughter’s antics.
Ye Jiuliang hummed in acknowledgment, ignoring Ye Xin’s scrutiny, and picked up her chopsticks to continue eating.
After all, if she liked standing there watching, then let her watch. It didn’t bother her in the least.
Ajiu?
