Chapter 87: Money Worship and the Wheelchair Boss 3
Jiang Tingxu thought she was like a little hedgehog.
Hedgehogs are naturally wary of the outside world. Once they encounter stimulation, they will put up their hard thorns to protect themselves.
But when she realizes that it is well-intentioned care, she will shyly open her soft belly and allow the person who cares about her to touch it.
Maybe what the Ye family and Jiang Chen said were right, she was brainless, direct and simple.
However, Jiang Tingxu, who had been surrounded by intrigues and calculations for half his life, liked this kind of personality very much.
"Sorry, Mr. Jiang's contact information is confidential." The bodyguard beside Jiang Tingxu refused.
They are all trained, and refusing others to harass Mr. Jiang or ask for his contact information is part of their job.
"Mingcheng, give her my business card." Jiang Tingxu suddenly spoke.
"Hey," the bodyguard named Mingcheng took a few seconds to respond: "Okay, Mr. Jiang."
He was puzzled, but he quickly took out his business card and handed it to Cha Jiu.
Cha Jiu took the business card gratefully: "Mr. Jiang, I won't bother you normally."
Jiang Tingxu said, "It's okay. You can call me when you miss your mother."
He smiled slightly and nodded to her goodbye.
Cha Jiu was stunned.
It was not until the car drove away that she sighed to the system: "Jiang Tingxu seems to be a very gentle person."
…
On the way back to Ye's house, although Ye's father looked unhappy, he didn't say anything.
Before coaxing Cha Jiu into signing an agreement to give up inheriting Mrs. Ye's estate, he still maintained the image of a loving father who doted on his daughter.
However, Ye Zhiyuan grew up abroad and now has his own company. He is very dissatisfied with Cha Jiu's method of currying favor with the public.
After returning to Ye's house, he started questioning Cha Jiu only after Ye Nian'en went upstairs.
"How has the Ye family wronged you? You used this method to get what you wanted, but the Ye family also lost face."
Cha Jiu lazily sat on the sofa, with her hands on the back of the chair, looking like a lazy rich girl: "Excuse me, my dear brother, what did I do wrong?"
"You publicly disclosed Jiang Chen's engagement change, causing him to be punished by Mr. Jiang. Wasn't that wrong?"
Cha Jiu smiled: "Do you think it's embarrassing for Jiang Chen to kneel down for a while in front of our mother, the person who spent the rest of her life saving his life?"
Ye Zhiyuan snorted coldly: "You don't need to change the subject, we are discussing the engagement. Ye Qinghuan, Nian En is more suitable to go to the Jiang family than you. She is smart, outstanding, and generous. Marrying into the Jiang family will not bring shame to our Ye family."
"So," Cha Jiu said, "I have to be the sacrifice, right? Ye Zhiyuan, have you ever thought that after my engagement is broken off, I will be laughed at by everyone in Beijing?"
Ye Zhiyuan sneered: "Even if you are not rejected, won't you be a laughing stock?"
He went on to say: "You have been like this since you were little, short-sighted, selfish and vain, and you only care about your own interests. If your mother saw you grow up like this, she would be very sad."
When Mrs. Ye was moved out, Cha Jiu was silent.
Ye Zhiyuan seemed to realize that he had spoken too harshly, and a trace of regret flashed through his heart.
Cha Jiu silently asked the system: "Is he really my biological brother born from the same mother?"
The system replied: "Yes, but he also thought Ye Nian'en was his biological sister. In fact, Ye Zhiyuan was sent abroad to study at a very young age. He is rational and decisive, and pays attention to the overall interests. Compared with you, he and Ye Nian'en have more common topics and are closer."
Father Ye smoked quietly, ignoring the quarrel between the two siblings.
Suddenly, there was a scream from the second floor, followed by Ye Nian'en's crying.
Ye's father put out his cigarette and rushed upstairs with Ye Zhiyuan. They saw Ye Nian'en squatting in Cha Jiu's room, crying and gasping for breath.
"What's wrong?" Father Ye helped her up with concern.
Ye Zhiyuan saw the trash can in front of Ye Nian'en, inside which lay torn admission tickets and review materials.
He picked it up and found Ye Nian'en's name written on it.
Everyone present understood.
Ye Zhiyuan turned around and stared at Cha Jiu coldly: "You did this."
Without asking a single question, he sentenced her to death.
Both sisters of the Ye family have applied for graduate school at Peking University, and tomorrow is the day of the examination.
However, the Ye family has more confidence in Ye Nian'en, and no one thinks that Cha Jiu can pass the exam.
"Of course I didn't do it." Cha Jiu leaned against the door and sneered, "It's not like the admission ticket can't be reprinted. Would I use such low-level and brainless methods?"
Ye Zhiyuan said with disgust: "You are just such a low-level, brainless, vicious person."
Cha Jiu: “…”
She seemed unable to refute it. Ye Qinghuan was such a brainless person.
But she refused to admit that she was vicious.
Father Ye sighed, "Things can be prepared, but Qinghuan, why are you targeting your own sister like this? The mentality before the exam is very important."
"It wasn't me." Cha Jiu repeated it again, although this sentence was completely useless.
"Ye Qinghuan, it seems that our family has really tolerated you too much." Ye Zhiyuan said.
He grabbed Cha Jiu's arm, pulled her into the room, and tore her admission ticket into pieces in front of her.
He also ordered the housekeeper to lock Cha Jiu's door and not let her out until the exam was over tomorrow.
Ye's father tried to dissuade him with a few words in a hypocritical manner, but he was no match for Ye Zhiyuan's anger.
When he was studying abroad, his textbooks were torn up and his homework on the computer was deleted because of his Asian identity, so he particularly hated this kind of bullying.
Before the door was closed, Cha Jiu looked up at him seriously: "Brother, it is my dream to go to Peking University for graduate studies."
Her eyes were calm, without any fear or begging.
It's as if he's just waiting to make a final decision.
Ye Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment, but when he heard Ye Nian'en sobbing, his heart turned cold again.
"Ye Qinghuan, you have done something evil this time, and you will have to suffer the consequences yourself."
He turned and left without mercy, taking the light in the room with him.
The sound of the door being locked.
Cha Jiu put away those hypocritical expressions, fell back on the soft big bed, and sighed comfortably.
"Okay system, I declare that my mission to take back everything that belongs to Ye Qinghuan does not include this stupid brother."
The system agreed: "You are right. In Ye Qinghuan's heart, she never thought that this brother belonged to her."
He is Ye Nian'en's brother.
Ye Qinghuan was already extremely disappointed.
System: “So what are you going to do now?”
Cha Jiu glanced at the time: "Wait."
"wait"
"Yeah." Cha Jiu closed his eyes.
…
It was twelve o'clock in the morning when Cha Jiu woke up from his sweet dream.
She stretched herself lazily, then slowly took out Jiang Tingxu's business card and dialed the number on it.
The waiting time was not long. When the third beep sounded, the call was connected.
"Hello"
The voice on the other end of the phone was low and had a hint of late-night hoarseness.
"Mr. Jiang, it's me, Ye Qinghuan." Cha Jiu's voice was still nasal from just waking up, and it sounded like she had been crying.
Jiang Tingxu was not unhappy about the late night call: "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
He was very sensitive to the fact that something was wrong with Cha Jiu.
This concern seemed to break the armor that Cha Jiu had put on. Jiang Tingxu heard her on the other end of the phone like a child who was bullied but tried not to cry, and finally burst into tears when her parents supported her.
While crying, she stammered and told what happened in the Ye family.
Jiang Tingxu listened patiently without interrupting her and responded when appropriate.
After an unknown amount of time, Cha Jiu sniffed and apologized softly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, to bother you so late at night, because you said I could call you when I missed my mother..."
"It doesn't matter."
Jiang Tingxu was surprisingly patient with this poor girl who was exactly one round younger than him. "So are you still locked up at home?"
"Hmm." Cha Jiu responded muffledly.
Jiang Tingxu raised his hand and looked at his watch, and said, "Can you wait for 30 minutes?"
"What?" Cha Jiu didn't react.
Jiang Tingxu said: "I will send someone to pick you up at Ye's house in thirty minutes."
