When Xia Huanhuan, who had just learned she was the daughter of a wealthy family, returned home to share the good news with her husband, Song Lin, she unexpectedly caught him passionately making lo...
Tang Yi suddenly stopped tapping his fingers on the table, and his already icy gaze now exuded an even more chilling aura.
"If we still can't find that woman's whereabouts, your salary for this month will be cut in half!"
Hearing this, the assistant standing behind him felt a pang of bitterness in his heart, secretly cursing Tang Yi as a complete "scrounger."
However, despite his dissatisfaction, he could only respond obsequiously and meekly:
"Mr. Tang, please rest assured, I will try other methods to find it."
After all, he had no other choice but to do this in order to keep his remaining half-month's salary.
After saying that, the assistant didn't dare to delay for a moment and immediately turned around and hurriedly left the villa area, racking his brains to think of how to find Ye Huanhuan's whereabouts.
At that moment, the image on the big screen was frozen on the instant Tang Yi brushed past Ye Huanhuan.
He stared intently at Ye Huanhuan's exquisite face on the screen, completely lost in thought.
Immediately afterwards, the crazy scenes from last night flashed through his mind like a movie, causing his throat to involuntarily bob up and down.
As if he could not bear the torment any longer, he grabbed the bottle of red wine on the coffee table, tilted his head back, and drank it all in one gulp.
The next morning, Ye Huanhuan was woken up by the family's maid while she was still deep in sleep.
The servants told her that the etiquette teacher had arrived and that she should go to the first floor for lessons on time and not be late.
Ye Huanhuan opened her eyes groggily, quickly washed up, and then dragged her somewhat heavy steps to the first floor in the elevator.
As soon as she got downstairs, she ran into Gao Yalan, who had already packed her luggage and was about to leave for Country Y.
Today, Gao Yalan wore an elegant long dress, its flowing fabric exuding a noble and graceful temperament, making her a feast for the eyes.
She directed the servants to load a large amount of luggage into the trunk outside. When she saw Ye Huanhuan, she was overjoyed; it was clear that she seemed to be in a particularly good mood today.
She walked up with graceful steps and said to Ye Huanhuan, "Huanhuan, the etiquette teacher is inside. You must study hard. I will accompany you after I come back from Xiaoru's place."
Ye Huanhuan smiled and replied, "Okay, Mom."
Gao Yalan gently embraced Ye Huanhuan, "Mom will bring you a gift."
Ye Huanhuan: "Thank you, Mom!"
Just then, a soft footstep sounded from the stairs.
Ye Ting slowly walked down the stairs. Today, he was dressed in a simple and comfortable casual outfit, which was in stark contrast to his sharp and formal suit yesterday.
He glanced indifferently at the mother and daughter who were tightly embracing, without lingering, and walked straight to the door, saying to Gao Yalan:
"Mommy, it's getting late, let's hurry or we'll miss our flight."
Gao Yalan sighed, slowly releasing Ye Huanhuan from her embrace. She gently stroked Ye Huanhuan's soft hair, a hint of tenderness in her eyes, and softly whispered:
"Huanhuan, Mommy is leaving. I won't be here, so please take good care of yourself."
Ye Huanhuan said obediently, "Don't worry, Mom, you don't need to worry about me."
"She's not mentally challenged or disabled. You have so many servants at home, are you worried that she can't take care of herself?"
Ye Ting's indifferent tone carried a hint of disdain. He stood at the door, but his gaze was fixed on the busy servants outside the villa.
Gao Yalan frowned, her tone carrying a hint of reproach: "Abner, how dare you speak like that?"
Ye Huanhuan's smile slowly faded. She looked at Ye Ting and said coldly, "Speaking so sarcastically, do you live on a Bagua diagram?"
That scoundrel of a man is born shameless. He was in a good mood, but he had to go out of his way to get yelled at.
Ye Ting sneered, "I'm not targeting you, I'm just speaking my mind."
Ye Huanhuan retorted directly: "I know you're straightforward, but that doesn't mean you can only tell when it's coming out of your mouth, right?"
Upon hearing this, Gao Yalan opened her mouth slightly, looking at Ye Huanhuan in disbelief, while Ye Ting's eyes revealed a look of disdain and contempt.
"As expected of a child raised in a poor family, he speaks so rudely and vulgarly."
"hehe……"
Ye Huanhuan rolled her eyes at Ye Ting: "I just have no manners, so what? Go ahead and kill me if you dare."
Seeing the siblings on the verge of arguing, Gao Yalan quickly intervened to smooth things over, saying, "Alright, you two stop arguing."
She then glared at Ye Ting with anger: "Abner, you're the older brother, don't always say things like that to your sister."
After saying that, she scolded Ye Huanhuan: "Huanhuan, from now on you must always be mindful of your status. You must remember that your words and actions represent the Ye family. You can no longer speak so vulgarly as you did just now."
Ye Ting snorted coldly, seemingly unwilling to waste words on someone as rude as Ye Huanhuan, and walked directly outside.
Ye Huanhuan watched Ye Ting's disappearing figure, a hint of disgust flashing in her eyes, then Gao Yalan said:
"As long as he keeps his mouth shut, I naturally won't argue with him."
Gao Yalan sighed, "You two are siblings. I'll try to persuade Abner to treat you better in the future."
With that, she walked towards the door.
Halfway there, she turned back to look at Ye Huanhuan again, "Huanhuan, if you encounter any trouble, you can call me anytime."
Ye Huanhuan replied, "Okay, Mom."
Watching Gao Yalan's departing figure, Ye Huanhuan felt a little lonely.
She turned and went back to the living room, where she saw five etiquette instructors waiting for her.
"Miss Ye, let's begin the lesson," the etiquette instructors said with a smile.
Ye Huanhuan took a deep breath, adjusted her mindset, and said, "Okay."
Over the next few days, Ye Huanhuan worked hard to learn various etiquette rules, hoping to adapt to her new identity as the biological daughter of the Ye family as soon as possible.
Etiquette encompasses all aspects of life, from daily eating and travel behavior to clothing and social interactions.
The most important aspects are dining etiquette, gait, and clothing style.
In addition, as a qualified heiress, one also needs to know those successful and renowned businessmen from the top of China's business world and have a considerable understanding of their family backgrounds.
Of course, this is not limited to the domestic market; the same cannot be ignored by prominent families abroad.
After a whole day, Ye Huanhuan felt as if she had been completely drained, her body so weak that it felt like it was about to fall apart.
Her brain was more like a thick paste, her thoughts were chaotic and she couldn't make heads or tails of it.
She lay exhausted in bed, her heart filled with sighs:
It turns out that becoming a true heiress from a wealthy family is really not easy!
