Looking at the ancient and solemn bronze door in front of him, Su Man sighed silently, "Oh, evil capitalism."
At this time, an old man in a suit and tie came out. He was wearing white gloves and his silver hair was combed meticulously. He bowed respectfully to Ye Ning and said, "Young lady, welcome home."
After standing up, he politely asked Su Man, "Who is this?"
Ye Ning proudly pulled Su Man over and said, "Uncle Gu, this is the sister Tang Man I was talking about. She is very nice to me."
Su Man noticed the scrutiny in Gu Bo's eyes, but he immediately returned to his previous respectful attitude, "Miss Tang, I have long heard of your name. If it is convenient for you, Mr. Ye would like to meet you."
Mr. Ye, Ye Hongzhi?
Su Man's mind unconsciously flashed with the scene of a poor boy kidnapping a rich girl and then being humiliated by being given a check.
That's really...
So exciting!

Cross the bronze door and there is a fountain inside.
The marble of the altar is black, but it gleams with an unknown luster. Well, it's the luster of RMB.
Behind the fountain, a long cobblestone road winds its way through the garden, where several people who look like gardeners are tending to the flowers and plants that are already so beautiful that they look like works of art.
As they walked, Ye Ning introduced things to her, saying that here she had broken her front teeth, and there she had picked her father's favorite flowers.
On the way, they walked around the garden, passed the gym, and finally saw a three-story villa next to the swimming pool.
As soon as she entered the door, a maid in uniform came forward and took Su Man's coat and bag.
Walking on the velvet carpet with dark patterns, looking at the celadon vase at the entrance and the landscape paintings hanging on the wall, each of them can be taken directly into a museum for exhibition.
However, Ye Ning was already accustomed to these things, and she happily pulled Su Man to the room.
"Sister Man, this is the room I asked Gu Bo to prepare for you. Do you like it?"
Looking at the room in front of her, which was larger than Tang Man’s entire apartment, Su Man’s smile became more and more stiff. “I like it.”
Just then, a maid knocked on the door. "Miss, Miss Tang, dinner is ready. The master is waiting for you downstairs."
In the dining room
The long dining table was very solemn. The man sitting at the head seat wore gold-rimmed glasses and a navy blue sweater over a white shirt, looking gentle and elegant.
Although he is over 40, he looks only in his early 30s.
Although there are fine lines at the corners of his eyes, this does not affect his overall demeanor. Every gesture he makes is not comparable to that of ordinary people.
Ever since Ye Ning saw Ye Hongzhi, he has been shrinking his neck and being as quiet as a chicken.
The only sound throughout the meal was the clatter of plates and forks.
Just when Gu Bo was about to pour red wine for Ye Hongzhi again, Ye Hongzhi blocked the mouth of the glass and Gu Bo quietly stepped back.
Ye Hongzhi pinched the long neck of the cup and shook it twice, "Miss Tang, Xiao Ning has caused you a lot of trouble. I offer you a toast."
Su Man wiped her lips with her napkin and raised her wine glass. "Mr. Ye, you're too polite. Ye Ning is not a fish in a pond. There will naturally be a day when he can leap over the dragon gate. I'm really of no use to you."
Ye Hongzhi glanced at Ye Ning, who was shrinking his neck and trying to reduce his presence, and his smile faded a little.
"I know my daughter. Although she says nice things, she's actually timid and can't stick to anything. Compared to her older brothers and sisters, she's really inferior..."
"Mr. Ye."
Suman interrupts him.
Ye Hongzhi paused, his expression frozen for a moment. Even Uncle Gu behind him couldn't help but glance at Su Man a few more times.
That's right, with Ye Hongzhi's current status, no one would dare to interrupt him like this.
However, as a gentleman, Ye Hongzhi still made a gesture of invitation, "Miss Tang, please speak."
"I know Ye Ning is your daughter, and you think you know her better than anyone else. But often the closer someone is to you, the less objective you can be about them. You think Ye Ning is a delicate girl, but in my opinion, she is incredibly brave."
Ye Hongzhi's eyes lit up with interest. "Oh? I'd like to hear more about it."
"Although Ye Ning was born into a wealthy family, she still managed to keep her dreams. Imagine if you had the wealth you have now when you started your business, would you still continue to work hard?"
Ye Hongzhi raised his eyebrows, as if he had never looked at the problem from this angle.
Su Man continued, "But Ye Ning did. She didn't give up on her dream, and despite having no advantages, she passed round after round of assessments and finally stood at the top. Isn't that persistence? Even when facing the strongest opponent, even when she knew she would fail, she still gave it her all. Isn't that bravery?"
“…”
As he listened, Ye Ning's eyes became red.
Although everyone in this family loves her very much, when they talk about her, they all think that she is a child who knows nothing and can do nothing, and can only live under the protection of her father as a little princess who eats and waits for death all her life.
Her brothers and sisters have laughed at her unrealistic dream of becoming an idol more than once.
Now, there is finally someone who helps her realize her dream and helps her deny those doubts.
Ye Ning looked at Su Man, tears welling up in his eyes, but a firm strength gradually awakened in his heart.
Su Man looked at her encouragingly, indicating that she should speak for herself.
Finally, Ye Ning mustered up the courage to look up, looked directly at Ye Hongzhi and said, "Dad, I'm not a child anymore. I have my own dreams. I also want to be your pride like my brothers and sisters."
At this moment, Ye Ning's eyes were still red, the baby fat on her face had not completely disappeared, and the faintly visible buck teeth made her look extremely young, but her eyes were more determined than ever before.
