Chapter 81 Ye Chutang's younger brother? (Update 1)
Han Yao's face froze for a moment, but he quickly recovered and said with a smile: "Miss Ye Er is really good at joking. Last time at Lanyue Tower, I was not able to recognize Miss Ye Er's identity and offended her with my words. I feel very guilty. I have always wanted to apologize to Miss Ye Er, but I have never found a chance--"
Ye Chutang retracted her gaze, as if she was afraid of dirtying her eyes if she looked at him any longer.
"No need to apologize. Besides, I have something else to do, so I won't accompany you any more."
Han Yao's eyes lit up immediately: "Miss Ye Er, are you busy choosing cloth? It just so happens that I am a frequent customer of this store. Miss Ye Er, please tell me what you want."
Ye Chutang found it funny.
The shopkeeper is standing right here. How can he have the nerve to say that he is familiar with this place?
"No need." Ye Chutang said calmly.
However, Han Yao was unwilling to leave and continued to move closer, pretending to be generous: "To express my apology, I will pay for all the expenses of Miss Ye Er in this store today! Miss Ye Er, what do you think?"
Hearing the voice, Xiao Wu turned his head and looked at him.
——This man doesn’t look very rich. Can he afford this shop? How dare he say that?
Ye Chutang simply pretended not to hear and said to the shopkeeper, "Can I have a word with you for a moment?"
The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly and led Ye Chutang inside.
Han Yao suddenly walked around and stopped in front of Ye Chutang, smiling playfully: "Second Miss Ye, why are you so polite? You are Brother Mingze's cousin, so our relationship is naturally closer than others. Besides, it's just some cloth, which doesn't cost much. It's just a small token of my appreciation, not a respect. Miss Ye, please accept it, right?"
Ye Chutang paused, raised his eyes slightly, and finally looked at him.
Those dark and calm eyes were like a calm pond of water. Just by looking at them in such a light manner, they seemed to be substantial, weighing heavily on the heart, making people tremble unconsciously.
Han Yao felt an inexplicable chill on his spine, and a chill that he didn't even know where came from rushed to the back of his head!
The smile on his face froze gradually.
"You probably can't afford the things I like. Besides..." Ye Chutang said in a cold voice, "Please move aside. You are blocking my way."
Before Han Yao could react, he had already stepped back and made way for Ye Chutang.
Ye Chutang took Xiaowu inside and went up to the second floor under the guidance of the shopkeeper.
It was not until the footsteps gradually disappeared and the servant called out several times that Han Yao suddenly came back to his senses.
"Master, Master? What's wrong with you?"
Han Yao realized belatedly that he had been intimidated by Ye Chutang's eyes, and a strong sense of shame surged in his heart.
He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
"You really think you are some rich lady!"
You're just an orphan with no one to rely on, yet you dare to act so arrogantly in front of him!
Seeing how angry he was, the servant agreed, "That's right! The young master took the initiative to apologize, but she didn't even give him face! How many women want such an opportunity but don't have one? She really takes herself too seriously!"
Han Yao was a womanizer by nature. He relied on his family's power to coerce and bribe young, beautiful and humble women.
Ye Chutang is the daughter of the Ye family, but Ye Mingze is extremely disgusted with her, so Han Yao does not take her seriously.
He was just being polite, but Ye Chutang didn't give him any face at all. How could he not be angry!
He narrowed his eyes, flicked his sleeves and walked out.
"Just wait and see! One day she'll beg me for help!"
After saying that, he left angrily.
The shopkeeper who was walking behind Ye Chutang had already reached the corner of the stairs. He looked back when he heard the voice.
…
"Miss, are you sure you want to buy our shop?" the shopkeeper asked again.
Ye Chutang nodded, then took out his purse and handed over the banknote.
"This is a deposit of five thousand taels."
The shopkeeper's eyes widened in shock.
That day, Ye Chutang came to ask, saying that she wanted his shop, but he didn't take it seriously and just casually quoted a number. He thought she definitely couldn't afford such a huge sum of money, but who knew -
He picked up the stack of banknotes, counted them carefully, and was even more shocked.
——This is definitely five thousand taels of silver!
This woman looked no more than 17 or 18 years old, and her clothes were extremely ordinary, yet she actually took out so much money in one go! ?
"I will make up the rest in three days. What do you think?" Ye Chutang asked.
“This, this…”
Although he had been told that if this person came again, he didn't need to lower the price, but he was still very surprised when he saw the silver note.
She actually managed to gather so much money...
The shopkeeper let out a long breath and smiled.
"Of course! I'll write the receipt right away. By the way, may I ask, what kind of business do you plan to do with such a large shop?"
If you invest so much money and can't get your money back, then...
Ye Chutang smiled slightly.
"You will know after a while."
…
Imperial College.
Ye Jingyan and Ye Yunfeng went in with assistant coach Liu Hexuan.
The assistant teacher introduced them as they walked: "The six halls, east and west, are where the students study. Classes are held at noon every day. The rooms are in front, and everything is ready. You can just go and live there."
He glanced at the two brothers and was actually quite curious.
The Lord Jijiu usually has very high standards. I wonder what Ye Jingyan talked about with him at the beginning that made him value him so much.
But apart from anything else, his temperament is excellent and he is well-mannered and polite, and is in no way inferior to those children of aristocratic families in the capital.
"Thank you, Assistant Professor Liu." Ye Jingyan thanked politely.
Liu Hexuan smiled and said, "No need."
He brought the two of them to Guangye Hall, and many students sitting in the room looked up.
His eyes were curious and scrutinizing.
Liu Hexuan explained: "These two are new students who enrolled today. They will attend classes with everyone from now on."
Everyone looked even more surprised.
Everyone enters school at the same time, so someone coming here suddenly in the middle would naturally attract attention.
Liu Hexuan said gently: "Please take a seat."
There were about twenty people sitting in the room, all between the ages of twelve and sixteen.
The two brothers sat in the last two empty seats, and from time to time someone would turn around and look at Ye Jingyan and the other brother.
After Liu Hexuan left, a young man sitting in front of the two brothers immediately turned around and asked curiously, "Are you two brothers? Why did you enroll at this time? I heard that you came here with Ye Mingze in a carriage? Oh, yes, you both have the surname Ye!"
News could not be hidden in the Imperial College, and many rumors about them had already spread long before the two of them came to Guangye Hall.
Ye Jingyan: “…”
How come this guy is such a chatterbox?
He was about to answer when he heard a cold voice suddenly coming from outside the door.
"Which one is Ye Jingyan?"
Ye Jingyan looked up.
A young man who looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old was standing at the door with his arms folded, a cold look on his handsome face.
He swept his eyes around and finally landed on Ye Jingyan, his eyes narrowed slightly:
"Ye Chutang's younger brother?"
I have something urgent to do today, so the second update will be at around 9 o'clock.
