Chapter 3 I am your brother (1/2)



Xiaoxi hadn't gone far when she suddenly saw many cars pull up and stop at the edge of the garbage dump.

Several people got out of the car and ran towards Xiaoxi.

Xiaoxi was stunned, and subconsciously thought: Are these people going to send her to an orphanage? No, her family hasn't been found yet!

She threw down the basin and ran away.

These people stayed up all night, investigating until they found out the girl was living in a shack at the garbage dump. How could they let her escape? How could they explain this to Boss Ye?

"Little girl, little girl, don't run away. We're not bad people. We heard you have a jade thumb ring, so we just wanted to take a look. Don't be afraid."

Xiaoxi saw an old man, panting heavily, looking at her with eager eyes.

Xiaoxi was helpless. She had shown the jade thumb ring to that uncle last night, so why was someone else asking to see it again today?

So she took the jade thumb ring off her neck and handed it to the old man.

This old man is named Chen Dafu. He was an old man who lived with Ye Yichen's grandfather. After Ye Yichen's grandfather passed away, the Ye family arranged for him to live in Shanghai.

Last night, someone dragged me out of bed just to show me a jade thumb ring.

He took the jade thumb ring from the little girl's hand, his hands trembling. He put on his reading glasses, then took out a magnifying glass and examined it carefully.

The antique patterns and the "Xi" character engraved on the inner wall are indeed the jade thumb ring passed down from the Ye family.

Chen Dafu suddenly burst into tears: The old man said back then that this jade thumb ring would only be passed down to his granddaughter, not his grandson.

Later, the old man finally got to see his granddaughter, but before he could even see her face, she was stolen away.

The old man became depressed and soon passed away.

Chen Dafu pointed at the little girl in front of him, whose face was covered in soot and who looked like a little beggar, and exclaimed, "You...you could you be..."

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest. Before he could even take out the nitroglycerin pills from his pocket, everything went black and he fainted.

The president's office of the Yip Group.

Ye Yichen didn't sleep well all night, his mind filled with the image of the little girl from last night—her ragged clothes and frail appearance. She must have suffered so much. Was she his sister?

Ye Yichen couldn't help but feel tears welling up in his eyes.

Assistant Du Xin has been here reporting for 15 minutes and noticed that their boss, Mr. Ye, is distracted and restless, not listening to a word he's saying.

Du Xin: I didn't see wrong, did I? President Ye cried, he cried!

Is this the same Ye Zong who remains calm and composed in the face of adversity, a man who inspires fear?

Suddenly the phone rang, startling Du Xin.

Then he saw Ye Yichen answer the phone, suddenly stand up abruptly, overturning the chair, and rush out...

The words "Miss has been found" on the phone immediately threw Ye Yichen into a panic.

Even after getting into the car, his heart was still racing and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

He thought for a moment, then sent a message to his brothers' group chat: "My sister has been found!" He then turned off his phone. Right now, his sister's situation was of paramount importance, and he didn't want any other trivial matters to distract him from picking her up.

North City Landfill.

At this moment, Xiaoxi thought that if she showed these people the jade ring, they would leave. The old man had fainted and had to be carried away after seeing her jade ring. Aren't they worried about the old man? Why aren't they leaving yet?

In the crowd, Xiaoxi felt uneasy, her hands tightly covering the jade thumb ring on her chest.

"Uncles, may I go now? I have things to do."

Xiaoxi asked innocently and timidly.

"Miss, you can't leave yet, Mr. Ye will be here soon."

Why are they suddenly calling her "Miss"? And who is President Ye? Xiaoxi was completely baffled.

Suddenly, the roar of a sports car could be heard, and a luxury car crashed into the junkyard.

Xiaoxi was curious to see that the uncles surrounding her rushed over and scrambled to open the car door.

From a distance, it looked like the uncle who got off the bus was the one who gave her a thousand yuan last night.
