When Ye Ru came downstairs, she saw this scene of motherly love and filial piety, which she found extremely jarring.
A few days ago, Ye Huanhuan refused to let Uncle Liu take her to S University, which made her late for her first day of class. She hasn't settled the score with Ye Huanhuan yet.
Later, she heard that Ye Haiming had transferred 5% of Ye's Group's shares to Ye Huanhuan, which made her even more furious.
Why should I?!
Why is it that everyone in the family has to fawn over this bitch the moment she comes back?
And what about her? What does all that companionship over the years amount to?
Just then, Gao Yalan spotted Ye Ru standing at the elevator entrance and called out enthusiastically:
"Xiaoru, Huanhuan is going to S University to register tomorrow. You are now a professor at S University, so remember to take good care of Huanhuan."
Ye Ru's expression instantly returned to normal. She smiled and approached Gao Yalan, replying, "I know, Mom, I will."
Then, she looked at Ye Huanhuan and said in an extremely friendly manner, "Huanhuan, you haven't been to school for so many years, are you really adapting?"
Ye Huanhuan glanced at Ye Ru. Although she didn't know what Ye Ru was up to, she still smiled politely and said:
"Thank you for your concern, sister, but I believe I can adapt gradually."
Ye Ru feigned concern, saying, "Huanhuan, you're a celebrity online now. Almost everyone knows about you and Young Master Tang. I wonder if your trip to school tomorrow will cause a commotion?"
Gao Yalan was also worried about this issue, and added, "Yes, Huanhuan, is this class really necessary? Can't you just stay home and rest? Besides, you also..."
As she spoke, her gaze fell on Ye Huanhuan's abdomen, clearly worried that Ye Huanhuan's going to school would affect the baby in her womb.
Ye Huanhuan knew Gao Yalan's concerns, but S University was a place she absolutely had to attend. She not only wanted to make up for her regrets, but also to complete her studies before Ye Ting returned, enter the Ye Group, and compete with Ye Ting for control of the company.
"It's okay, Mom. My sister is here too. Since she's a tutor at the school, it means she has a lot of influence. I'm going there to study, not to do anything else. With my sister protecting me, are you afraid that others will bully me?"
Ye Ru was stunned; she hadn't expected Ye Huanhuan to use her as a shield.
What's even more infuriating is that Ye Huanhuan's words also indirectly tell Gao Yalan that if she hadn't protected Ye Huanhuan and someone had bullied her, then it would be her fault as the older sister, Ye Ru.
Gao Yalan nodded, agreeing with Ye Huanhuan's point, and immediately instructed Ye Ru:
"Xiaoru, you must take good care of Huanhuan at school, she's in a very difficult situation now..."
Ye Huanhuan keenly sensed that Gao Yalan was about to blurt out that she was pregnant, and immediately interrupted her:
"Mom, don't worry, I'm not a child anymore."
"Don't worry, Mom," Ye Ru said with a forced smile, "With me here, no one will dare to bully Huanhuan."
Ye Huanhuan felt a chill run down her spine at Ye Ru's hypocritical act, but she still maintained a smile on her face.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, sister," Ye Huanhuan said.
Gao Yalan was very pleased to see the two sisters getting along so well.
"You two chat, I'll go tell the kitchen to prepare dinner," Gao Yalan said, turning and leaving the living room.
After Gao Yalan left, Ye Ru's expression immediately changed, and her eyes were filled with resentment and jealousy as she looked at Ye Huanhuan.
Ye Huanhuan looked at Ye Ru with great interest and smiled sarcastically.
"Sister, have you finally given in and revealed your true colors?"
Ye Ru snorted coldly, "Hmph, don't think that just because you're the biological daughter, you can get everything from the Ye family. Don't forget, you're not the only biological daughter in this family."
Ye Huanhuan raised an eyebrow and said:
"No matter what, it's still better than you being adopted, right? Look at you, so outstanding and hardworking, but what good is it? In the end, you still got nothing. In your father's eyes, you're nothing more than a pawn in a marriage alliance. As a pawn, you should have the awareness of a pawn, and stop daydreaming about getting things that don't belong to you!"
These words struck a nerve with Ye Ru, causing her to break down instantly.
"You!" Ye Ru trembled with anger and raised her hand to hit Ye Huanhuan.
Ye Huanhuan quickly grabbed her wrist and looked at her coldly, "What, you want to fight?"
When Ye Huanhuan lived in the Xia family, she had endless housework every day. Even after marrying Song Lin, she never truly enjoyed the treatment of a wealthy wife and lived like a servant every day.
Therefore, she was naturally stronger than Ye Ru, a pampered young lady who never lifted a finger.
Ye Ru's raised hand was unable to move, her face changed drastically, and she angrily said, "Let me go!"
"Ye Ru, I don't want to argue with you, and I don't want to quarrel with you."
Ye Huanhuan forcefully shook off Ye Ru's hand, "But if you dare to frame me again, don't blame me for being ruthless to you."
Ye Ru stumbled backward, almost falling to the ground, but she endured the discomfort, quickly regained her footing, and glared fiercely at Ye Huanhuan, her eyes filled with hatred and jealousy.
"Ye Huanhuan, do you think I want to fight with you? Do you think I want to argue with you? It's clearly you! After you came back, everything that should have been mine was taken away by you! Why did you go back to the Ye family? Why didn't you just die out there? It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, I would still be Mom and Dad's only daughter!"
"So, this is why you've framed me time and time again?"
Ye Huanhuan retorted, "Besides, I am my parents' biological daughter, so it is only right that I return to the Ye family. But you are telling me not to go back to the Ye family. Are you kidding me? Since you say that, can I also ask you, as an adopted daughter, why don't you go back to the orphanage? Why do you insist on staying in the Ye family?"
As she spoke, Ye Huanhuan rolled her eyes at Ye Ru and continued, "Do you really think you know your place before you speak? Do you really think that just because you've been in the Ye family for over twenty years, you have Ye family blood flowing through your veins? You want to usurp someone else's place? Wake up!"
"you!"
Ye Ru wanted nothing more than to tear Ye Huanhuan's mouth apart. This was the first time she had ever seen Ye Huanhuan speak in such an infuriating way!
"What? You want to attack again?"
Ye Huanhuan sneered, "I advise you to calm down, behave yourself as my adopted daughter, and don't act like a spoiled brat in front of me. And don't try any tricks or schemes. That way, I might let you stay in the Ye family a little longer. Otherwise, I don't mind personally kicking you out!"
Ye Ru gritted her teeth and glared at Ye Huanhuan, but in the end she didn't dare to say anything more.
"I'll wait and see how long you can be so smug!" Ye Ru threatened.
Ye Huanhuan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, her face full of disdain, "I'm always ready to play along."
