The young man who walked out from the shadow of the corner was tall and slender, a little thin as a teenager, with clear edges and corners on his fair and smooth cheeks.

The other person was not very old, looking about fifteen or sixteen years old. He was aloof and cold, yet had a bit of the stubbornness of a teenager.

"Sister Wenya, I heard everything you and Grandpa said in the study just now, but I hope you don't resent him..."

The young man pursed his lips, a hint of guilt etched in his dark eyes, yet with a stubborn expression, he spoke, "Grandpa has worked incredibly hard to support the entire company all these years. Back then, my uncle was transporting cargo, and they encountered interstellar pirates along the way, causing a disaster. The company was also severely damaged. To pay the high price for the cargo, it took Grandpa a full ten years to recoup all the losses... That's why Grandpa is so anxious now."

The earldom of the Ye family was earned by Grandpa Ye and his two brothers through their military exploits on the battlefield. Of the three brothers, only Grandpa Ye survived. However, a noble title for a commoner's son did not hold much promise, so if he wanted to live a good life, he had to find other ways.

After returning from the battlefield, Mr. Ye opened an interstellar freight company, specializing in helping some merchants transport goods. Later, as his business grew bigger and bigger, he married Mrs. Ye, the eldest daughter of a lower-class noble family, and his aristocratic status gradually stabilized.

"Don't worry, Ye Junyang... Grandpa is my elder, so I naturally can't resent him." Unlike the original owner's heartless and self-centered personality, Ye Wenya naturally understood how hard it was for a newly promoted noble to maintain her status.

Family alliances and children's marriages are common means of consolidating one's status.

He was unwilling to marry into the powerful Fang family, which was like cutting off an arm of the Ye family. It was normal for Mr. Ye to be unhappy and furious.

"I'm glad you don't resent grandpa. The company has been in a downturn recently, and grandpa has been unable to eat or sleep because of the company's affairs. Now he heard that our family and the Fang family have broken off the engagement, and he has become haggard." Ye Junyang breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time he was worried about Grandpa Ye's health.

He looked up at Ye Wenya, his face full of confusion, and said, "Sister Wenya, can I ask why you insist on breaking off the engagement with Brother Fang this time? I remember that you obviously liked Brother Fang very much before."

In Ye Junyang's memory, his eldest cousin almost wanted to chase after him every day. He could even often hear her bragging about Fang Shaoyuan, clearly pleased with him. Today, he suddenly heard that it was Sister Tang who first brought up the matter of breaking off the engagement. Ye Junyang could hardly believe his ears.

If Old Master Ye had not repeatedly asked the other party in front of him and the other party had not made the same guarantee, Ye Junyang would have suspected that he had heard it wrong during the day.

“People always change. Moreover, an apple that is rotten from the inside, no matter how beautiful and intact it is on the outside, is ultimately unbearable.”

The girl's soft long hair was draped over her shoulders, and the sunlight outside the window shone through the glass, gently falling on her cheeks, revealing bright colors.

After a moment's silence, he calmly and simply recounted what had happened in the exam room. "Fang Shaoyuan flirted with other female classmates right in front of me. Even after I was seriously injured, he abandoned me in the jungle without hesitation, treating me like a burden, leaving me to fend for myself. A man like him is worse than a rotten apple. What's the point of keeping him around?"

Ye Wenya tucked the soft hair that fell by her ears, her eyes gleaming with an exceptionally sharp light. "I know it's not easy for Grandpa to maintain the prosperity of the Ye family. Many noble families prosper for a short time before they fall into decline. This is also a common problem for many new nobles: they have the ability to obtain a title, but cannot protect it, and can only watch the family decline step by step. I believe that this matter cannot be fundamentally solved by marrying off descendants. Ultimately, it depends on the strength of the new generation of family members. Otherwise, no matter how powerful the marriage partner is, without a suitable heir to lead the family, the only fate that awaits this family is failure."

"There aren't many people in our family. There are only four of us in this generation. Junyang, you have to work hard."

Ye Wenya reached out and patted her little cousin on the shoulder, then turned around and left the place, walking out of the villa.

Ye Junyang stood there, his face solemn, his lips tightly pursed, and he said nothing.

But the young man's pair of dark eyes were staring at Ye Wenya's departing back seriously.

Unlike his older sisters who were raised by their parents since childhood, Ye Junyang has been raised by Grandpa Ye since Ye Weixin's death. Therefore, many of his ideas are completely different from his parents. This time he feels that what Sister Datang said is absolutely right. The rise and fall of a family depends most on itself.

…

Ye Wenya left the Ye family. She originally thought that Ye Weiwei, who always liked to mock her, would jump out and mock her as usual. However, she did not expect that when she left the Ye family with the old housekeeper, the entire Ye family was unusually quiet, and the other family seemed to have not noticed him at all.

Seeing the door of the Ye family villa closed, Ye Wenya raised her eyebrows slightly, and used the intelligent light brain to find a rental hovercraft, and left the Ye family directly and went to the largest central hospital in the Imperial Capital Star.

at this time.

On the third floor of the Ye family’s old house, in front of a floor-to-ceiling window of a house.

Second Aunt Ye watched the hovercraft gradually disappear from sight, becoming a small black dot. She sneered, "That stinky girl, Ye Wenya, never suffered any hardship in the Ye family before. Even with such poor grades that she went to the Imperial Military Academy, she still had the Fang family's protection. This time, she was kicked out by the old man, leaving her with nothing and leaving the house empty-handed... She really thought she had grown strong enough to support herself?"

"Mom, why did you stop me just now? Didn't you see how he treated me in the hall before? I clearly made a mistake and made grandpa furious, but he still dared to look down on me. It's simply too much." Ye Weiwei pouted in dissatisfaction, her fingers tugging at the curtains in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows.

"What can I do if I don't stop you? The family is still managed by the old man, and the servants all listen to him. They won't help us teach that dead girl a lesson. What's the point of you rushing down to find him? It's just a waste of time... Your brother still has a long time to be the head of the family." Aunt Ye raised her eyebrows, broke down the whole thing, and told her daughter.

"The most important thing for you now is to find an opportunity to get in touch with Young Master Fang again. Since he can like other people, he can naturally like you as well. As long as he is willing to marry you, the old man will definitely agree! By then, even Marquis Fang and his family will have no objection for the sake of your uncle and aunt." Aunt Ye smiled and touched her daughter's tender and fair cheek. Her daughter was beautiful, even though her physical strength was only C-level and her mental strength was only B-level. However, the Fang family could even agree to Ye Wenya, a waste with a physical strength of only D-level and mental strength of only C-level. Their own daughter was so good, what else could the other party not agree to?

"But just now it was you who asked me to wait here with you, and then go find trouble with Ye Wenya after she came out of grandpa's study. But now... Mom, why don't you keep your word?" Ye Weiwei's face turned dark and she rolled her eyes.

Her mother had told her countless times about marrying Fang Shaoyuan, and her ears were almost callused. But he always rejected her. What could she do? It would be better to see Ye Wenya suffer and make herself feel happy first.

"How can you be so stupid, girl? You're just like your father!"

Second Aunt Ye poked Ye Weiwei's forehead in dissatisfaction, and said with a fake smile: "I asked you to wait here with me to see if that dead girl took away any of her belongings before she left... His dead parents left him a lot of things, even if they were some jewelry, they were worth a lot.

Money. If there are other more valuable things. Then can he still be considered to have left the house empty-handed?! He was clearly going on vacation! "

"Besides, these things at home... were originally meant to be inherited by our family. They will all belong to our family in the future and have nothing to do with that damn girl."

"Now that he hasn't taken anything with him, why should we bother ourselves?"

"Okay! Come with me to the beauty salon for maintenance later. I will think of a way to go to the Fang family openly in the afternoon. You can get in touch with Mr. Fang again." Aunt Ye raised her hand

She touched her smooth and delicate cheeks with her fingers, feeling the touch of the skin on her fingertips. She always felt that Ye Wenya had made the old man angry again today, which made her nervous and worried. Her skin had become two points worse. She thought to herself that she must take good care of it and restore it to its original state.

Ye Wenya, who was already sitting in the flying car, naturally had no idea about all this. She still sat steadily in the hovering car, waiting for it to arrive at the Imperial Capital Star Central Hospital.

…

In the interstellar age, technology is advanced. Even an ordinary hovercraft can travel from the southernmost point of a planet to the northernmost point in just two or three hours, so the entire planet is a city.

The Imperial Capital Central Hospital is about 20 minutes away from the Ye family's old house.

The hovercraft soon stopped in front of the main gate of the Central Hospital. Ye Wenya got out of the car holding Xiao Hei, still carrying the backpack she brought from the examination room.

From the time he entered the Ye family until now, Xiao Hei has not made a sound from beginning to end, and is as well-behaved as a doll.

Ye Wenya held the black cat in one hand and touched its smooth fur with the other hand. She followed the sign at the hospital entrance and walked towards the outpatient clinic.

A sweet-looking young nurse in a white nurse uniform is standing in the outpatient center serving people.

Seeing Ye Wenya come in, the young nurse immediately came forward sweetly.

"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?" The little head nurse with a round face was very cute. She had two dimples when she smiled and was very friendly.

Seeing the other person's friendly smile, Ye Wenya's slightly annoyed mood also eased a bit. She nodded politely and said, "Thank you... I want to register for him. When I came out of Lookout Port earlier, the port security facilities showed that Xiao Hei was in a state of severe mental disorder, but I don't know which department to register with..."

The Ye family is small and they have a private doctor, so the family has only been to the Imperial Capital Central Hospital a few times.

Seeing the 108 departments scrolling back and forth on the light screen above the outpatient clinic, Ye Wenya had no idea which one to choose, and was even a little confused.

There are departments like internal medicine, respiratory medicine, gastroenterology, and psychiatry. There are forty or fifty departments with the word "internal medicine" at the end...

"Oh my god! Severe mental disorder?! He's so young, how could he have such a severe mental disorder?!..."

The round-faced nurse's eyes widened, and she almost cried out in surprise. She glanced at Xiao Hei twice, then hurriedly led Ye Wenya to the automatic number-taking machine next to her. She quickly tapped the machine a few times, and the metal machine spit out a card. The nurse immediately stuffed the card into Ye Wenya's hand and said quickly, "Madam, please take this registration card and go up to the 35th floor! I have already made an appointment for you with Doctor Zhang. He is particularly famous for treating mental disorders, and many people specifically ask for him. Please hurry up and don't waste time!"

The round-faced nurse took Ye Wenya forward, directly to the elevator building, and opened the door for her.

"Thank you." Ye Wenya thanked sincerely.

No wonder this little girl was placed in the outpatient center of the hospital to guide people. This little girl is too considerate and kind.

The hospital's service attitude is also good.

Ye Wenya nodded, thinking seriously that she could come here again if necessary next time.

“Ding Dong…!”

As the elevator reached the 35th floor of the Motor Building, the metal elevator door opened automatically.

Less than three seconds after walking out of the elevator, Ye Wenya was subconsciously stunned when she saw the green corridor full of cartoons.

Are all the decorations in hospitals so childlike?

On the wall...

On the left, a giraffe teacher wearing gold-rimmed glasses is teaching the little monkey and red panda to read.

On the right, a Q-version silver mecha warrior stands on the red planet, holding a cartoon-shaped flag of the Orc Empire in his hand, cheering and shouting.

Above the head, there are strings of beautiful feather wind chimes and cartoon Q-version dolls, which are extremely cute.

Ye Wenya: ...

I always feel like something is weird, but I can't put my finger on it.

The author has something to say:

Ye Wenya: I always feel that something is wrong with this place.

Black Cat: ...
