Chapter 23
"What do you think of your brother Shu Ning?" Ye Jinchen asked curiously.
Ye Jinmeng lowered her head and thought for a moment, then shook her head, "I don't know. After all, I grew up with him since I was little. I liked being with him originally. But this should not be the kind of like for falling in love, right?"
Ye Jinchen thought about it. Indeed, this kind of feeling could be friendship or family affection, or just a kind of dependence. But to say it's love, it's really uncertain.
Ye Jinchen secretly broke into a cold sweat for Shi Shuning.
His sister has been sensible and obedient since she was young. Not only is she serious about her studies, she is also very friendly to her classmates and friends. So in high school, many boys wrote love letters to Ye Jinmeng, but they were all intercepted by him and Shi Shuning in the end.
Although they were a few years older than Ye Jinmeng, they had "planted spies" around Ye Jinmeng to prevent her from having a puppy love, and it was easy to do so.
Ye Jinchen felt that those stinky boys were not good enough for his sister, and Shi Shuning's goal since childhood was to marry Ye Jinmeng, so he certainly could not let other boys steal his corner. He and his brothers watched Ye Jinmeng closely, and she never had the opportunity to fall in love early or get to know other boys.
Ye Jinchen naturally knew all along that Shi Shuning liked his sister. He didn't oppose it, but also told Shi Shuning to wait until Ye Jinmeng became an adult before saying anything.
At that time, Shi Shuning was still in high school with poor grades, a typical second generation heir. He had no goals, no intention to inherit the family business, and just wanted to live a life of eating, drinking and having fun for the rest of his life relying on a small portion of the company's shares.
However, after being recognized by his future brother-in-law, he began to study hard in order to make money in the future to raise little Jinmeng to be fatter and fatter. As a result, his grades skyrocketed. He was admitted to Haicheng University, and even joined the army to change his bad habits.
Ye Jinchen sighed and felt that Shi Shuning had a long way to go in pursuing his wife, but he didn't intend to get involved. After all, in emotional matters, it still depends on mutual affection between the two people.
So he rubbed Ye Jinmeng's head and said gently, "It's okay. Don't feel psychological pressure just because Shu Ning confessed to you. You just need to follow your heart. Be together if you like him, keep a certain distance between men and women if you don't like him, and don't give anyone any room for imagination. Understand?"
Ye Jinmeng nodded blankly, but she sneered in her heart: My brother, a confirmed bachelor, can actually speak so philosophically...
It was a mess in the Xiao family villa tonight.
There was a crisp slap. Xiao Jianren covered her face and knelt on the living room floor with tears in her eyes.
"Look at the good things you did today!" Xiao Wenyao angrily scolded, "I told you before not to put on airs in Yunhai Shopping Mall. I finally got the usage rights of the shopping mall with great difficulty, and now you have ruined it!"
The Xiao family used to be on par with the Ye, He and Shi families as one of Haicheng's four major consortiums, with involvement in various industries.
However, more than ten years ago, the change of heir apparent caused the Xiao family's industry to become more and more bleak. Now it only relied on the home textile industry and the XJ clothing brand to maintain itself.
One should know how much customer traffic and income an XJ store in Yunhai Shopping Mall could bring. He had put in great efforts to fight for the usage rights at that time. Now because of this incident, they were directly kicked out of Yunhai Shopping Mall, and all the money and effort he had invested earlier was in vain.
Xiao Wenyao thought this way and became even angrier. He picked up the teacup on the coffee table and smashed it over. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝑒𝔀𝓮𝘣𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝓵.𝒸𝑜𝘮
"Ah!" The teacup shattered on the ground. Blood oozed from Xiao Jianren's forehead where it was hit.
"Ah, Master, don't get angry anymore. Jianren knows she was wrong!" Jian Hongmei hugged Xiao Jianren kneeling on the floor distressedly, stroking her broken wound while persuading, "Jianren, apologize to your father quickly!"
"It's all because you spoiled her too much. Look what she has become!"
"Dad, I was wrong. I really didn't know that country bumpkin was related to Ye Jinmeng." Xiao Jianren covered her forehead and sobbed as she explained.
Xiao Wenyao was really furious. "A young lady from a rich family, but she had to make trouble with an inconspicuous passerby! Tomorrow, bring some gifts and come with me to apologize to the Ye family!"
"Get back to your room, I get annoyed just seeing you!"
Jian Hongmei hurriedly pulled her daughter off the floor, full of distress, "Go back to your room quickly, I'll ask Auntie Zhang to bring you medicine."
Then she walked over to Xiao Wenyao and poured him a cup of tea and handed it to him, gently persuading, "Master, don't be angry with Jianren anymore, she's still young..."
"She's still young? She's already twenty, two years older than the young Miss Ye from that family. Why doesn't she learn from how they do things!" Xiao Wenyao interrupted her sharply and smashed the teacup on the coffee table angrily, "Keep spoiling her! Sooner or later the Xiao family will be ruined by you!" Then he angrily went upstairs.
