Chapter 98: 098, Wuye has come knocking on the door (Third Update)

Ye Jiuliang glanced at the TV, raised an eyebrow, and wondered if there was a collective interest in watching her on television.

Bored out of your minds, huh?

"Grandfather," Ye Jiuliang called out evenly, skipping over everyone else.

Ye’s grandfather’s face was ashen, "Without a word, you took leave and didn’t go to Beisen, just to meet that man named Ji Mingqian?"

Ye Jiuliang didn’t argue but responded with silence.

"Just look at what kind of rumors are spreading outside. Explain yourself," Ye’s grandfather commanded sternly, "what exactly is your relationship with that Ji Mingqian?"

Ye Jiuliang maintained her composure, "Is it strange to have a meal with a friend?"

"Jiuliang, you’re still young, you should focus on your studies. Your grandfather is just worried about you because you’re young, afraid that you can’t discern people’s true intentions and someone might take advantage of you. Ji Mingqian is from the entertainment industry, many reporters and media are watching him, and look how big this situation has gotten, it’s not good for our Ye Family’s reputation either," Ye Yu said softly. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

"Causing a scandal with an actor, it’s simply disgraceful to our Ye Family," Ye Xin muttered quietly.

"Who did you say was an actor?" Ye Jiuliang’s icy gaze shot towards her as she asked coldly.

Ye Xin’s face changed slightly; the fear in the depths of her heart surfaced as she met Ye Jiuliang’s profound dark eyes.

"I..."

"Jiuliang, Ye Xin didn’t mean anything else by that. We’re all one family here, let’s not get at odds over an outsider," Ye Yu intervened to smooth things over.

Ye Jiuliang hooked the corner of her mouth into a cold smile, "Who says he’s an outsider?"

Hearing that, Ye’s grandfather became instantly infuriated, "Jiuliang, what do you mean by that? If he’s not an outsider, then what is he to you?"

Ye Jiuliang turned to face the wrath in Ye’s grandfather’s eyes, her lips parting slightly, "He’s my family."

She enunciated each word clearly and deliberately.

Faced with her earnestness, Ye’s grandfather was taken aback.

The anger on his face dissipated slightly as his gaze upon her became more complex.

"Ji Mingqian is your family, Ye Jiuliang? Then what are we? Do you even hold your grandfather in any regard?" Ye Xin saw her chance to instigate further.

"Heh."

Ye Jiuliang’s gaze was icy as she looked at her, "Don’t you have any idea what you’re worth in your heart?"

Her light words struck hard, leaving Ye Xin’s face flushed with anger.

"I’ll handle this matter myself, I’ll be leaving if there’s nothing else," Ye Jiuliang shifted her gaze and began to walk away.

"Wait," Ye’s grandfather called after her.

Ye Jiuliang paused in her steps, waiting for him to continue.

"Whatever your relationship is with that celebrity, from now on, you’re forbidden to associate with him, or else..."

Before he could finish his threat, Ye Jiuliang turned around. She tugged at the corner of her mouth, displaying a sarcastic smile.

"Or else what? Are you going to have Ji Mingqian blacklisted so he can’t make it in the entertainment industry?"

Ye’s grandfather’s face darkened, for he indeed had such intentions.

"I actually think that’s not a bad idea. If it does make him unable to make it in the entertainment industry, I’ll be sure to present a big gift in thanks," Ye Jiuliang spoke slowly and deliberately.

Without another word, she left without looking back.

Accustomed to everyone’s compliance, Ye’s grandfather felt his breath catch from Ye Jiuliang’s repeated defiance.

He slapped the table in anger, "Aren, get the gate guard to stop her for me."

"Yes," Aren pulled out his cellphone and walked aside to make a call.

Shortly afterward, he returned with a troubled expression.

"Master, Miss Jiuliang attacked the gate guard and has already left."

Before he finished speaking, Ye’s grandfather felt a surge of blood in his chest and suddenly went dark before his eyes.

"Dad."

"Grandfather."

The Ye Family was startled and quickly got up to support Old Master Ye.

"Call a doctor, get a doctor quickly."

The Ye Family was in disarray, while Ye Jiuliang enjoyed some peace, driving her motorcycle to the VI Club.

In the quiet of the night, a deep blue sports car drove into Mo Garden, eventually stopping in the courtyard.

Feng Yi closed the car door and walked into the living room with ease.

Inside, only Wei Bei was there.

"Feng less."

"How come it’s so quiet, did Granny Jiang go out?" Feng Yi looked around and asked.

Wei Bei replied, "The old madam had a friend’s banquet to attend and went back to country M yesterday."

"Ahan, where is he?"

Wei Bei touched his nose, somewhat helplessly, "The master has been in his room since this morning and hasn’t eaten all day."

Feng Yi nodded in realization, "Ahan saw the news then?"

Wei Bei nodded.

As for Ye Jiuliang, his master was more concerned than anyone.

"I’ll go up and see," said Feng Yi, stepping up the staircase.

Finding the bedroom, the door was closed tightly.

Just as he raised his hand, the door opened.

The deep, still black eyes, tinged with red, shone with a cold, terrifying light; Feng Yi was taken aback.

The strong smell of alcohol hit him, and he wrinkled his nose.

"Ahan, you..."

Li Mochan pushed past him, heading down the stairs without stopping.

Caught off guard, Feng Yi stumbled and, entering the room, his lips twitched slightly.

Scattered around on the floor were empty bottles of alcohol; drinking all sorts, it was like throwing away his life.

Such fine liquor wasted.

He turned and went downstairs, only to find Wei Bei alone.

"Didn’t Ahan just come down?"

"The master took the car keys and left; he wouldn’t let me follow," Wei Bei said.

Feng Yi pressed his forehead, "He drank so much. How could you let him drive? Once something concerns Ye Jiuliang, all reason goes to pieces."

"Should I go after him now?" Wei Bei asked.

Feng Yi shook his head, "Forget it, let him be."

Anyway, he couldn’t be stopped.

...

After having dinner outside, Ye Jiuliang returned home.

After a comfortable shower, she nestled on the sofa to watch TV.

In the meantime, Gu Xinuo called, and they talked for a while.

Not long after hanging up the phone, someone rang the doorbell.

When she saw through the peephole who was standing outside, her hand on the doorknob paused.

It was him.

"Thud, thud, thud—"

The aggressive knocking, very urgent.

Ye Jiuliang’s eyes lowered, a hint of indecision flickering in their depths.

"Bang, bang, bang—"

The knocking grew louder; continuing like this, it was bound to draw attention.

Ye Jiuliang took a deep breath, her movements slow as she opened the door.
