While Yan Xiao was investigating Ye's father's social connections, the Ye family was already in chaos.
Ye Yao was administratively detained for 21 days for drug use and has not been released yet. But the 80 million debt cannot be delayed, because every day of delay will result in a large amount of interest.
Ye Fei refused to help again, and Ye's father had no choice but to go to the Wang family. I hope they can help talk to the loan sharks and relax the time limit a little. After all, it was Wang Zhao who led Ye Yao to gamble and take drugs.
But how reasonable can a family be to pamper Wang Zhao to such a level? As soon as Mr. Ye told his purpose of visit, he was unceremoniously asked to leave. The Wang family even kept hinting that it was Ye Yao who led Wang Zhao astray, which almost made Ye's father vomit blood in anger.
Most of the valuable things in the house had been sold, even Ye Yao's mother Wang Lingling's bags and jewelry were not left behind, but there was still more than 20 million left to pay off.
“Cry, cry, cry, just cry!” Father Ye pushed Wang Lingling away and fiercely kicked the chair next to him. “It’s all because of you that he became like this!”
Wang Lingling wiped the tears from her face and choked up while holding Ye's father's arm: "Husband, please think of a way. Those loan sharks are inhumane! What if A Yao comes out and they go looking for A Yao?"
She sobbed a bit, raised her eyes and looked at Father Ye with tears in her eyes: "If anything happens to A Yao, I won't live anymore!"
In the past, Ye's father liked her tearful and brainless look, which gave him a strange sense of control. But now, Father Ye just felt irritated.
He shook off Wang Lingling's hand and said coldly: "Then you go to hell!"
Wang Lingling has been with Ye's father for twenty-three years. Even when Ye Fei's mother was still alive and she was not allowed to be seen in public, she had never suffered such injustice. She was stunned for a few seconds, then cried even harder.
Father Ye was upset by her crying, and the nameless anger in his chest was burning more and more. He pointed at the door and scolded: "If you cry again, get out! Damn it, there is no point in marrying you! You can't help me at the critical moment!"
He leaned on the table and took a breath, staring at Wang Lingling with red eyes: "And she gave birth to a useless thing! All the wealth I worked hard to save for half my life was squandered by him!"
"You regret it, you regret it, don't you?" Wang Lingling is a typical love-brained person. After hearing what Ye's father said, she immediately refused to do it. She pounced on him and scratched and clawed, "Okay, I was wondering why you just don't want to sell Dingyuan! Is it because Dingyuan was left to you by that woman? You can't bear to part with it! Have you not let her go in your heart?!"
The words "that woman left it for you" completely touched Ye's father's sore spot. He hated most in his life when people said that he relied on women to get to the top, not to mention that the person who said this was the person who had slept in the same bed with him for more than 20 years.
Father Ye kicked Wang Lingling to the ground and looked down at her: "Get out."
His face was calm, but his eyes were full of hostility. His eyes were fixed on Wang Lingling's face, as if they could cut her.
Wang Lingling had never seen him like this before, and she shuddered uncontrollably. She used her hands and feet to get up from the ground and walked out of the study in dejection.
The door closed with a click, and Ye's father sat in front of the desk with a gloomy face. He suffered from testicular atrophy when he was thirty years old and lost his fertility. He could only have two sons, Ye Fei and Ye Yao.
Ye Fei is a lesbian and has now become someone else's plaything. The roots of the Ye family cannot be cut off, so nothing can happen to Ye Yao no matter what.
Father Ye sighed, stood up and opened the safe in the corner of the study.
There are a pile of gold bars neatly stacked in the safe. According to the current market price, if all of them were sold, they could fetch about 10 million. Father Ye touched it carefully. This was inherited from his ex-wife and it was also the way out he left for himself.
I will never move unless it is absolutely necessary.
Father Ye grabbed two gold bars from below and wanted to take a closer look, but his fingers accidentally grabbed a few pieces of paper.
He frowned and was about to put the paper back. But when he glanced at the content above, he stopped.
That was Ye Fei's insurance contract.
Father Ye's face changed and he stood there motionless for a long time. It was not until the light in the study gradually dimmed that he slowly put the gold bars back into the safe and then found all of Ye Fei's insurance contracts.
There are several critical illness insurance policies, with a total insured amount of more than 60 million.
Father Ye lowered his eyes and slowly stroked the contracts.
Ye Fei was his first child, and he loved her sincerely when she was a child. However, the older he gets, the more his face resembles his ex-wife. Every time he saw it, he felt uncomfortable.
What's more... Father Ye picked up the phone and entered eleven digits on the dial key. Ye Fei is not as easy to fool as Ye Yao. He is careful and smart. What if he finds out about that in the future?
Father Ye hardened his heart and pressed the dial button directly.
I called three times before the call was finally connected. The voice was very low, as if afraid of being heard by others: "What's the matter?"
Father Ye asked, "Do you still have that thing?"
Ye Fei had no idea about Ye's father's secret plan. Gu Ruijia's birthday was coming up soon, and he was worrying about what to give her.
"He is particularly concerned about this," Ye Fei leaned on Yan Xiao, searching for related topics on her phone while complaining, "You can't give duplicate gifts, but you can't be careless either."
Ye Fei looked at the web page for a long time, and all the suggestions were about giving lighters, sneakers, etc. He has known Gu Ruijia for more than ten years and these things had been given to him a long time ago.
Ye Fei threw the phone away and said with a sigh: "Damn, none of them are reliable."
He looked up at Yan Xiao: "Brother Yan, what did you give Cheng Minghao for his birthday?"
Yan Xiao touched his face and said, "No."
Ye Fei: “…”
Okay, this is indeed Yan Xiao’s style.
He sighed and rubbed Yan Xiao's shoulders twice: "Just thinking about this these days has cost me a lot of brain cells."
Yan Xiao couldn't bear to see him worried. Although he knew he was not good at this kind of interpersonal relationship, he still tried to help him solve the problem: "Give him something he likes."
"He likes sports cars, collects red wine, and likes beautiful girls," Ye Fei thought for a moment and said, "He can't afford a sports car, and he can't get red wine."
Ye Fei chuckled: "I can't introduce him to a girl, right?"
Yan Xiao said "buy" and then said "I have money".
Ye Fei laughed: "Forget it, it's too expensive, not necessary."
Yan Xiao was silent for a while, then asked him, "What kind of red wine do you want?"
Ye Fei raised an eyebrow and jokingly asked, "Why, you have it?"
"There are some in the wine cellar," Yan Xiao nodded and said to Ye Fei, "someone gave it to me."
"Wine cellar?" Ye Fei was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that Yan Xiao's villa had a special wine cellar, but he had never been there.
Ye Fei immediately became interested: "Let's go, let's go and take a look."
The wine cellar is built underground and is not very large, only about twenty square meters. Light brown solid wood wine racks are firmly embedded on the left and right sides, with bottles of red wine neatly placed on the racks.
"I didn't expect you had so many good things hidden." Ye Fei was dazzled as soon as she entered the door. There was everything from well-known old wine brands to emerging brands that have been very popular recently.
"I didn't hide it." Yan Xiao frowned and explained to him seriously.
Ye Fei couldn't help laughing and teased him deliberately: "Oh, then I can handle all these?"
Yan Xiao said: "Okay."
Ye Fei then said: "Does that mean your things are mine?"
Yan Xiao said "yes" and held his hand.
Ye Fei raised her eyes and smiled slyly: "What's yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine, okay?"
Yan Xiao nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay."
Ye Fei's heart softened by his serious and earnest look. He stood on tiptoe and kissed the corner of Yan Xiao's lips: "Just kidding, what's mine is also yours."
After a pause, she put her lips to Yan Xiao's again and said in a voice that couldn't be any softer: "Even I am yours."
Finally, Ye Fei chose a 1992 Romanee-Conti. It’s not the most expensive wine in the cellar, but it happened to be produced in the year Gu Ruijia was born.
Gu Ruijia's birthday was not too high-profile; he just invited a few good friends to dinner at the hotel. As Ye Fei's family member, Yan Xiao was naturally also invited.
Gu Ruijia was very satisfied with the red wine given by the two and would not let go. For fear that the quality of the wine would be damaged if it was kept in the hot box for too long, we borrowed the hotel’s wine cellar to preserve it.
Yan Xiao looked at the joy on his face, thoughtfully. If Ye Fei received a gift, would she be as happy?
"Finally I've done something about personnel matters," Gu Ruijia sat down next to Ye Fei after returning and clinked glasses with him, "Come on, let's drink."
Ye Fei had a good alcohol tolerance and did not refuse, drinking up the champagne in the glass in one gulp. This caused Sun Qiong, Zhou Zhensheng and Cheng Minghao on the opposite side to cheer.
"Brother Xiao," Gu Ruijia turned to Yan Xiao again and pushed a specially prepared drink in front of him, "I know you don't drink, this is non-alcoholic."
Yan Xiao lowered his eyes and looked at the colorful drink. After a pause, he picked it up and took a sip: "Thank you."
Gu Ruijia waved her hand and said with a grin, "You're welcome."
Then I asked him, "How is it? Is it delicious? I like this one very much."
With a lingering sweet taste in his mouth, Yan Xiao frowned slightly and uttered a word slowly: "Hmm." Just as he was thinking about whether to take a second sip to prove his words, the cup in his hand was snatched away.
Ye Fei said, "Let me try it." He tilted his head back and drank half of the cup in one gulp.
"Fuck," Gu Ruijia glared at him, "You want to drink, but you don't know how to order? Why are you stealing Brother Xiao's?"
Ye Fei licked her lips and looked at him with a half-smile: "I just like to drink his, what's it to you?"
Gu Ruijia was choked by him and couldn't utter a word. After a long pause, she spat at him and said, "Just be a slut." She was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore and ran to play games with Cheng Minghao and the other two.
Ye Fei took a bottle of water from the coffee table and handed it to Yan Xiao. She winked at him, leaned over and whispered, "Drink it for you."
Yan Xiao looked at his eyes shining under the light and didn't know how to love him. After a moment's silence, she found his hand under the table and held it in her palm.
Ye Fei was stunned for a moment, then curled the corners of his lips.
At this time, Gu Ruijia, who was having a great time playing games, stretched out his elbow and knocked Sun Qiong's phone down.
"Damn, you really know how to pick the time," Sun Qiong laughed angrily and bent down to pick up his phone, "I was just about to reply to that girl I've just fallen in love with..." His words stopped abruptly when he saw the scene under the table.
"What's wrong, girl? Just keep talking." Gu Ruijia hated it most when people stopped talking midway, so he pushed Sun Qiong. Seeing that he still didn't respond, he lowered his head to look, "What's wrong, damn..."
Gu Ruijia also lost her voice.
"Are you all possessed by evil spirits?" Cheng Minghao was puzzled. He threw away the dice in his hand and bent down with Zhou Zhensheng.
Cheng Minghao: “…”
Zhou Zhensheng: “…”
Thus, a strange scene appeared in the box: Ye Fei and Yan Xiao huddled together to talk, while the other four grown men bent over, stuck out their buttocks, and stared at the table with dead fish eyes.
Because music was playing in the box, and Yan Xiao and Ye Fei were focusing on each other, they didn't realize that they were being watched.
A minute later, Cheng Minghao came to his senses first.
"I say," he straightened up and tapped the table, "you two should stop holding hands and consider the feelings of us singles, okay?"
When Ye Fei raised her eyes, she was immediately met with four pairs of pitch-black eyes.
Ye Fei was stunned for a moment, but she didn't feel embarrassed. She smiled and said, "Okay, we'll hold hands secretly from now on."
Cheng Minghao and the other three: "..."
"Come and play some games," Gu Ruijia picked up the dice and shook them, "You two will have plenty of time to play together later."
The words "plenty of time" pleased Yan Xiao. He let go of Ye Fei and pushed the bottle of champagne on the table in front of Gu Ruijia.
Gu Ruijia: “…”
It appeared, it appeared! The boss wants to get him drunk again! This is such a damn familiar scene!
After all, it was Gu Ruijia’s birthday, so Ye Fei finally joined them, and Yan Xiao watched from the side as usual.
The few of them didn't play truth or dare or anything like that. After all, they had known each other for so many years, so they didn't know each other. I picked a relatively simple dice rolling game. The person with the highest score wins, and can tap the forehead of the person with the lowest score.
"Come on, let me show you daddy's luck." Ye Fei rolled up his sleeves, picked up the dice and threw them on the table.
Ye Fei: “…”
Gu Ruijia laughed: "Dad, your luck is only worth a little."
A few dogs that had just been abused took this opportunity to take revenge. Everyone was eager to try, and in the end, Cheng Minghao was luckier and rolled six.
"Brother Fei," he grinned, circled his thumb and middle finger, and put them to his mouth and blew a breath, "I'm sorry."
Ye Fei raised his face indifferently: "Come on, who's afraid of who."
Cheng Minghao glanced proudly at Yan Xiao beside him and flicked Ye Fei's forehead hard.
Even though Ye Fei was prepared, he still hissed in pain.
Yan Xiao looked at Cheng Minghao expressionlessly.
Cheng Minghao was drunk at the moment and was fearless. I thought you guys are just showing off your love, but you dare to glare at me when he’s just taking a little revenge? Seeing that Ye Fei was not paying attention, he quickly tapped him on the forehead twice.
Ye Fei's skin was white and thin, and when these brains hit her, her forehead immediately turned red.
Yan Xiao turned his face and looked at it for a few seconds, then suddenly stood up.
Cheng Minghao thought he was going to hit him, so he immediately clenched his fists and blocked his chest vigilantly.
As a result, Yan Xiao didn't even look at him, but just bent down and picked up the phone on the sofa.
The alarm was lifted, and Cheng Minghao started to talk nonsense again: "What are you doing, Brother Xiao, taking pictures to identify the injuries?"
Gu Ruijia and others couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"No," Yan Xiao said slowly, opening WeChat and typing, "It's to inform the Compensation and Benefits Department that you won't have annual leave next year."
Cheng Minghao: “!!!”
Cheng Minghao sobered up instantly.
