Because of the alarm, the Ye family members were in no mood, and the old lady's birthday party ended hastily.
After the guests left one after another, the originally bustling Ye family villa suddenly became much quieter.
The three aunts were packing up the dinner dishes, while the bodyguard who stayed behind was silently doing the physical work of moving things around.
Aunt Liu was carrying a cold meal tray and when she passed by Ye Qin, she paused and winked at her.
Miss, what's going on? Where is the person?
Ye Qin shook her head slightly, indicating that she didn't know.
Aunt Liu pursed her lips and continued working with a worried look on her face.
Compared to Aunt Liu's worry, Ye Qin remained calm. It wasn't a big deal, and the people who should be most worried right now weren't her, but those two.
Ye Qin raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at her second uncle's family in front of her.
Second uncle Ye Youping was not that excited, so he didn't notice anything and was still helping the bodyguards carry things in a naive manner.
Ye Cen and Nie Feng were not so calm. They felt uncomfortable, neither standing nor sitting. Especially when they met the gaze of Old Lady Ye, who seemed to want to slash them, they didn't know what to do.
Jiang Qing once again sat aside as if it had nothing to do with her. Since the old lady was standing up for Ye Qin, she was happy to have some free time.
Nie Feng finally couldn't stand the pressure from Old Lady Ye anymore and said awkwardly, "Mom, if there's nothing else, we'll just leave... Ye Youping, what are you doing there? Why are you doing the work they do?"
Ye Youping smiled innocently, "It's okay, I'm just sitting around doing nothing anyway."
"Go home if you have nothing to do. We pay them so that they can work. You are the boss, don't you know that?" Nie Feng scolded angrily. She despised Ye Youping's humble attitude of just getting work.
Ye Youping didn't care. "Oh, what kind of boss am I? I'm just relying on my big brother's influence to make a living."
"The second son is a man who knows how to be grateful." Old Mrs. Ye's voice came faintly.
Nie Feng's face immediately turned red with embarrassment, and she glared at the unimpressive Ye Youping angrily, "Then you stay here and do your job. The child and I are going home!"
After she finished speaking, she pushed Ye Cen, who was standing there in a daze, and said, "What are you standing there for? Go find your brother! Go home!"
Nie Feng glared at Ye Cen as if to say, "Wait until we get home and I'll deal with you!"
Ye Cen's eyes flashed. She didn't want to go home and face Nie Feng, but she didn't want to stay here and face Old Lady Ye even more. She was about to turn around to look for her brother Ye Rong when Old Lady Ye's voice sounded again behind her.
"You want to leave after doing something wrong?"
"Eh?" Ye Youping paused, looking at his mother in confusion. "Mom, what are you talking about? What did they do wrong?"
Old Madam Ye snorted coldly, "Ask them!"
Ye Youping looked at Nie Feng and Ye Cen, "What did you do to make Mom unhappy?"
Nie Feng's mouth twitched. "I...what did I do? I didn't do anything! Ye Youping, you saw me too. I was helping my family entertain guests all night. What did I do?"
Ye Youping nodded, "Yes, Mom, she didn't do anything today."
Ye Qin couldn't help laughing. Her lovely second uncle used the phrase "she didn't do anything today".
Old Madam Ye ignored Ye Youping and looked at Ye Cen coldly, "You say!"
"Grandma..." Ye Cen was startled, then took a step back aggrievedly and looked at his father for help.
Because Ye Cen was usually not welcomed at home and Nie Feng would beat and scold her at any time, Ye Youping had always felt sorry for her daughter. Now, seeing Ye Cen's request for help, she said, "Mom, what do you think Cen Cen is doing? Don't you know what her personality is like? She is very quiet and sensible. What can she do?"
Yes, what can a little girl who never fights back when beaten or scolded do?
However, no one knew at the moment that she would play a key role in the future destruction of the Ye family.
"You're not telling me yet? What's going on with the alarm near your sister's room?" Old Mrs. Ye asked directly.
Ye Cen panicked, "How should I know this... Didn't they say it was a false alarm..."
"Bullshit!" Old Madam Ye roared, "We have our own alarm system. Outsiders may not know about it, but as a member of the Ye family, don't you know about it?"
Ye Youping nodded at this time, "That's right, there is no possibility of a false alarm."
Ye Cen's eyes flashed. She, as a father, was really incapable of accomplishing anything.
"Grandma, I really don't know..."
"You're still trying to make excuses, aren't you? You didn't even know, yet you blurted out that there was a man in the guest room? And you kept saying that man was leaning against your sister. When did you see your sister bring a man home?"
Ye Cen could only shake his head and deny it at this moment, "Grandma, I was just guessing, I didn't mean anything else, I was just worried about Qinqin."
"Worried about Qinqin? I think you want to discredit Qinqin and the entire Ye family!"
"I..." Ye Cen looked at Ye Youping hurriedly.
Ye Youping was about to speak to defend his daughter when he was interrupted by Old Mrs. Ye.
"Alright, your daughter is your own treasure, you can't believe anything I say! But I have to make this clear. We didn't find the man today, so we didn't bring shame to the Ye family. However, when the alarm went off and no one was found, we brought shame to the Ye family! Everyone knows that the Ye family is participating in the election for the security of the Wei Group Building. Now that this has happened, who would trust our Ye family anymore if word gets out? People will say that if the Ye family's own security system can give false alarms, then those outside are even more unreliable!"
