Chapter 50 Daddy is angry!
Naturally, the other people present were not as shocked as Ye Lizhen and Ye Wenyin, but they were all shocked, and felt admiration and disbelief.
Old Master Ye naturally took everyone's reactions into consideration.
He sighed and asked, "Tianhui, you've clearly already won, so why aren't you rushing to open the safe? Instead, why are you trying to find a flaw in Tianji Meteor?"
Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "Because I originally thought I couldn't win. I had already put myself in a desperate situation and thought I was doomed to fail. I never expected there would be such a turn of events, so I still feel uneasy."
She glanced at Ye Lizhen calmly and said, "I want to know if my victory was fair and square, and if I have a clear conscience. After two hours of observation, and thanks to the technicians for their analysis and judgment, it seems everything is fine."
As soon as she said this, the technicians next to her looked strangely embarrassed.
They thought they had argued with the young lady and convinced her, they thought they had won.
Now I realized that everything was part of other people's calculations. She just wanted them to lay a more solid foundation for her road to success!
When Ye Lizhen heard this, his expression was indescribable.
Old Master Ye laughed heartily. "Excellent, excellent! A daughter who has a grandson like Ye Tianhui deserves it! I used to say your father disliked family affairs, which disappointed me greatly. I never thought he would have a granddaughter like you!"
After hearing this, Ye Tianhui turned her head and glanced at Ye Lixuan.
Ever since the results came out, there has been no expression on Ye Lixuan's face.
He looked...unhappy?
************
When he returned to the Ye family that day, Grandpa Ye called all the relevant people from the Ye family's horse management company over. They held a brief meeting and officially announced that Ye Tianhui would join the horse management company under the Ye Group and serve as the deputy general manager of horse racing.
At this point, Ye Tianhui won a great victory. She will get part of the management rights of Ye's group and will have a large amount of special funds to call upon to accomplish things. Before leaving, Old Man Ye mentioned again that he would ask Ye Tianhui to come over tomorrow. He wanted to talk to Ye Tianhui in detail, but it was too late today, so he asked her to go to bed early.
Ye Tianhui had gone through such an event during the day and then a meeting at the Mawu Company in the evening. She was now somewhat tired.
The human heart is unpredictable. The Ye family has many members, and the conflicts of interest are like a Bagua formation. If she had not had some experience before, it would have been impossible for her to cope with it based on her knowledge from those years on the mainland.
Fortunately, her experiences in her previous life allowed her to make a name for herself in the Ye family.
As she thought this, she walked alone in the corridor leading from the main room to the third room.
The autumn night is cool, the stars and the moon are dim, the shadows of flowers and trees are hazy, and the sound of insects chirping can be heard.
The climate in Hong Kong is completely different from that in Beijing. Even in autumn it is warm and green here, but it is a bit chilly in the mountains at night, so she pulled her coat tighter.
The lamps under the eaves on both sides emitted a cool halo of light, illuminating the wooden corridor in front. She remembered the scene of Ye Lixuan, Ye Wenyin and herself returning to the third room that night.
She had to admit that she felt jealous at that moment. She felt that Ye Wenyin had been Ye Lixuan's daughter for so many years, and they must have a very deep father-daughter relationship.
At that moment, she had the idea of using Ye Lixuan.
This kind of use is actually a test, to test whether he is on his side or on Ye Wenyin's side when faced with major interests.
Judging from the current results, she was too serious.
He was too gentle to her, so gentle that she had the illusion that he was her general father and her princess mother.
In short, he met all her needs for both a father and a mother.
He tried to comfort himself so gently and carefully, and tried his best to meet all his requests.
So much so that when facing him, she felt a little anxious and worried.
She is very greedy. How can she be willing to lose the tenderness she has received?
But now it seems that he is really annoyed with himself and angry with himself.
After the results came out, he didn't even look at himself.
Ye Tianhui thought, he was angry with her, what should she do, how should she make him happy?
But after thinking about it, there is no solution.
I went back to the living room of the third room, opened the door, and a maid with an unfamiliar face came out of the kitchen.
The other party came forward attentively: "Hello, Miss Tianhui, my last name is Sun, and my name is Arong. You can just call me Arong."
When Ye Tianhui asked, she learned that Sister Li had been fired. She originally worked in the kitchen and was now temporarily seconded here to work as a maid.
Ye Tianhui naturally understood what she heard. It was Ye Lixuan who noticed it, and he acted quite quickly.
Her daddy was never a nerd who was oblivious to the world outside. In fact, he was the most astute and intelligent.
He was just too proud and aloof to fight.
Of course, as the old man's most beloved son, he has actually put a lot of benefits into his pocket.
——From this point of view, Ye Tianhui has a new understanding of the old man.
He did not treat all his children as pawns. He did favor his own legitimate son. He just deliberately left him idle to avoid bringing trouble to him?
By extension, this legitimate son might also have some preference for me? At least in this inter-class competition, he must have observed everything, just waiting for the second uncle to fall into her trap, and he would watch the show from the sidelines.
Of course, Ye Tianhui did not dare to make a judgment easily and had to observe further.
Thinking this, she went upstairs. As she went upstairs, she deliberately walked very slowly, step by step, and then pricked up her ears to listen for any movement.
It was obvious that Ye Wenyin had suffered a great blow today. She must have stayed in her room and refused to come out. As for Ye Lixuan——
She listened carefully and found that Ye Lixuan was not in the bedroom. He was in the study. He seemed to have the habit of reading every night.
Ye Tianhui went back to her room to wash up first. After washing up, she began to think about how to tell him that it would be better for father and daughter not to have any overnight grudges. She had to help him calm down and not be angry with her.
However, she had no good idea on how to help him get over it.
I thought for a moment, if it was the general father——
But General Daddy won’t be angry with her at all, okay!
No matter what she did, General Dad would never be angry with her.
No matter how big a disaster she caused, her father, the general, would always follow her and calmly clean up the mess.
This is the demeanor of a famous general, this is the spirit of a man, and this is the indulgence of a father.
As for Ye Lixuan——
Ye Tianhui swallowed her little complaint.
This father is really good to her and has been tolerant enough of her. She can't be too picky.
Besides, all fathers are different. This father actually has his own good points. She likes this father very much now, so even if she thinks he is bookish and not generous and tolerant enough, she can only bear it.
Who made me have such a father? I can only coax him well.
Ye Tianhui gritted her teeth and went to the study and knocked on the door.
After three or four knocks on the door, a voice finally said, "What's going on?"
The voice was cold and indifferent, and didn't sound very friendly.
Ye Tianhui pushed the door open and walked in. When she entered, she was very cautious and gave him a very cute smile: "Daddy——"
Her voice was like honey, so sweet.
Ye Lixuan raised his eyelids and glanced at his daughter calmly: "What's the matter?"
Ye Tianhui saw his cold look and was obviously angry.
She pursed her lips, trying to come up with a topic. Finally, her mind suddenly turned, and she asked, "Daddy, aren't you going to travel with me? I want to travel, can you accompany me? Let's go on a father-daughter tour of Hong Kong!"
Her eyes sparkled: "Daddy, how about we take the cable car? Take the cable car to see the night view of the Hong Kong River?"
Ye Lixuan looked indifferent and refused directly: "I'm very busy with work recently and don't have time."
oh.
Ye Tianhui hit a few small soft nails. She thought for a while and said, "Daddy, didn't you promise to give me a shop? Then when will you accompany me to take a look?"
As soon as these words came out, Ye Lixuan's cold eyes swept over: "Shop?"
Ye Tianhui nodded vigorously: "Yes, shop, you promised me!"
Ye Lixuan raised his eyebrows sarcastically: "Do you need it?"
Ye Tianhui said hurriedly: "Why don't I need it? Of course I need it, Daddy gave it to me, I like it very much!"
Ye Lixuan: "You are a completely different person today. You have joined the Ye Group's Horse Service Company and are now the deputy director of horse services. In the horse service company, I'm afraid even your second uncle would give you three points. How could you care about that small shop now?"
Ye Tianhui: "I want it, of course I want it! If I have the money, why wouldn't I want it?"
Ye Lixuan said directly: "Sorry, I don't want to give it to you anymore. I take back my promise. You should find a shop somewhere else."
ah?
Ye Tianhui: "If you don't give it to me, who else can you give it to..."
Ye Lixuan said sarcastically: "You may have forgotten that you are not my only daughter. I also have an adopted daughter. An adopted daughter is also a daughter. Why can't I give her to her?"
After hearing this, Ye Tianhui was a little annoyed. What did he mean?
She immediately said, "How can it be the same? I am your biological daughter, not her! You clearly said you would treat me well, and only me well. I am your only daughter!"
Ye Lixuan didn't say anything, just looked at her indifferently.
Ye Tianhui opened her eyes wide and looked at Ye Lixuan, who had a strange look in her eyes. Uncertainty also emerged in her heart.
She looked at Ye Lixuan and asked tentatively: "Daddy, what do you mean? Don't you want to give it to me anymore?"
She said cautiously, "I may be angry, but a gentleman's word is as good as his bond. You said you would treat me well and give me everything you promised. How can you say such a thing now..."
Ye Lixuan was extremely amused: "Tonight, seeing you build a towering building from scratch, I wonder how many people in the Ye family envy you to the point of jealousy. And you actually still want my things? Can you not be so greedy?"
Ye Tianhui listened to his mocking expression, frowned slightly, and whispered: "You said you would give it to me, why do you go back on your word? You are not really that angry, but just looking for an excuse not to give me the shop, right?"
Ye Lixuan looked up at Ye Tianhui, seeing her greedy but unfulfilled look, and her clear eyes filled with loss and disappointment. He felt both angry and amused at the same time.
Ye Lixuan has been aloof all his life, looking down on the common people and taking money lightly.
He never expected that his own daughter would be such a greedy little girl!
He shook his head, a little bit unbelieving: "I don't understand why you are like this. How could I have a daughter like you? You don't look like your mother at all, nor like me..."
Ye Tianhui was immersed in a slight loss.
She snorted, "Why not? Didn't you say before that I looked familiar to me? That must be because of the call of my blood!"
Ye Lixuan: "You are deep-minded, vain, and obsessed with money. Do you think I don't know? You used my card to buy a lot of antiques and gold. I'm afraid you are going to put them away for yourself. You don't want to use them at all. You just want to keep the money for yourself. You want to take the money from me and put it in your own hands."
When Ye Tianhui heard this, she felt a little ashamed, and also angry.
She was so embarrassed and angry that she couldn't stand it anymore: "Ye Lixuan, are you a man? Are you a father? Do you have any manners of an elder? You already told me to swipe as I please, why are you saying this now? It seems like you're always thinking about paying me back. I can buy whatever I want, and you still have to control me? I just swipe, I swipe, what's the problem?"
She laid it all out, "Are you feeling heartbroken and regretful? Well, let me tell you, it's too late! Just swipe it, who's still whining about it? As for your shop, I can just give it up, okay? Who cares?"
Ye Lixuan's eyes were cold and gloomy. "Yes, you don't care about these things at all now. You are ambitious and have a big appetite. I underestimated you. There is no way I can satisfy you. I am just a joke in front of you."
Ye Tianhui listened to this and became more and more outrageous.
But this is my real dad, my real dad!
She took a deep breath, barely holding it in, and tried to coax him again: "Daddy, look at what you said. We are father and daughter. I have thought about things you couldn't imagine. If one day I can take charge of the power, won't you be proud too? Wouldn't I be filial to you? We are father and daughter, grasshoppers on the same rope, we should work together, right?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Lixuan laughed sarcastically and said, "You speak better than you sing, and you seem to be of one mind, father and daughter. Ye Tianhui, have you ever believed me? You don't believe me at all!"
He looked at her coldly: "You are using me, you are using me like a fool, you are treating me as a tool!"
Speaking of this, he recalled that day in the stable.
She stroked the horse, and her expression was unprecedentedly gentle and melancholy, as if she had many unspeakable sorrows that she couldn't relieve.
At that moment, he wanted to walk over and hold the world in front of her to make her happy.
That was his daughter, his bone, his blood, and he was willing to give everything for her!
But, she is just a little liar, she has no heart.
And today on the terrace, I was trying my best to make her happy, which seemed like a joke!
Ye Lixuan said sarcastically: "In fact, the reason why you call me daddy now is because I am the son of the Ye family. Because I can give you the identity of the eldest daughter of the Ye family. If I were not the son of the Ye family, you would not even look at me, right?"
Ye Tianhui listened in surprise: "Daddy, but I have always known that I am the granddaughter of the Ye family! If you are not the son of the Ye family, then you are not my father, of course I will not look at you!"
Ye Lixuan's eyes were filled with coldness when he heard this: "How could I have a daughter like you? Are you really my daughter? You despise the poor and love the rich, you are vain, you are greedy for money and profit, you are full of lies, you——"
He took a deep breath and gritted his teeth. "You are scheming and you think you are smart. You think you can manipulate everyone at will, don't you?"
Ye Tianhui was a little bewildered, and even more confused: "Why are you so angry? If you have anything to say, let's talk it out. Why are you so stubborn?"
Ye Lixuan: "Am I being too picky?"
Ye Tianhui: "Yes, I know you love me and you treat me very well because you are my father, but now that I have won, shouldn't you be happy for me? Why are you thinking about all those things? Are you hoping that I will fail? If I fail and I am sad, won't you be sad for me too? You will also try to comfort me and wish you could help me accomplish this, right? "
Ye Lixuan was silent for a moment after hearing this.
He admitted that she was right and that he would be sad if she failed.
Ye Tianhui looked at Ye Lixuan, her words more sincere than ever before: "Daddy, I'm your daughter, shouldn't you be proud of me? As for some of my methods here, firstly, all is fair in war. If I want to win, I must have some strategy. Secondly, if they don't count me, how can I count them? They have ulterior motives, wanting to deal with me and trip me up. I'm just using their own spear to attack their shield. Is that wrong?"
Ye Lixuan frowned.
Ye Tianhui sighed deeply, "You said such harsh words to me, wouldn't it hurt me to hear them? Do I want to be said that? Even if you're right, why do I admire vanity? Because I've never had vanity in this world. When I climbed ashore dripping wet in the suburbs of Yuen Long, I saw the daughters of Hong Kong appearing in magazines in luxurious clothes. Shouldn't I work hard? Why am I greedy for food and money? It's because I've been poor and hungry. I've been hungry for a long, long time! You rich families are in trouble, how can I know if I can stay together forever? I just want to save more money, so that if I can't make it one day, I can have some money. Is it wrong for me to think so?"
She took a step back, looked into his emotionless eyes, and said in a hoarse voice, "As my father, what right do you have to blame me? Isn't this your fault? I know you have no interest in the family business, but I don't blame you for not working hard. I want to fight for it myself, I want more, is that wrong? I want your credit card and your shop, because I know you give them to me because you like me, but besides these, I also hope to fight for something on my own, is that wrong?"
Ye Lixuan stared closely at his daughter in front of him, his lips pressed into a line, and the muscles on the back of his hand that was placed on the book were bulging.
Ye Tianhui thought about her journey to Hong Kong: "I like horses. I want to soar through the clouds. I also like horse racing. I hope to do more. I hope to help those who are in desperate situations but still have dreams to spread their wings and fly high. I hope to see aspiring horses galloping thousands of miles! I don't want to be an idle cloud and wild crane like you, because I was born a Kunpeng. I want to stand thousands of feet above, I want to soar into the sky, I want to change the world, and I want everyone to see that I am Ye Tianhui."
Having said that, she didn't want to say anything more.
She looked at Ye Lixuan in front of her, her voice a little hoarse: "Since I want to do something, I won't stick to these details. There will probably be a lot of things you won't like in the future. If you insist on being angry with me, it's up to you."
After saying that, she left his study.
***********
After returning to the room, she thought about this and felt mixed emotions.
At first, she didn't care about her biological father and just wanted him to give her money. She didn't feel any guilt towards him.
But after such a long time, they have gotten to know each other better and she knows that her father still cares about her.
Now that the matter was done, he was annoyed.
After she said all this, he still didn't know what to think, and she felt uncomfortable.
She just couldn't admit her mistake and then try to please and coax him.
Thinking of this, I felt so depressed and uncomfortable that I didn’t know what to do.
She was so confused that she finally thought of Gu Shizhang. She felt like she had found a life-saving straw and quickly called him.
The call was quickly picked up, and Gu Shizhang's voice came: "Tianhui?"
When Ye Tianhui heard his voice, her nose felt a little sour: "I have one very happy thing today, and also one very unhappy thing."
Gu Shizhang: "Oh?"
Ye Tianhui: "Why are you reacting so calmly? Shouldn't you care about me?"
Gu Shizhang: "Then let me guess."
He pondered for a moment and said, "You won the inter-class competition. You got what you wanted."
Ye Tianhui nodded: "Yes, I was very happy..."
Gu Shizhang listened to her weak tone and said, "But you and your dad had a conflict. You two had a fight, right?"
Ye Tianhui raised her eyebrows slightly, a little unbelievable: "You can guess this?"
Gu Shizhang sighed, "It's very simple to guess this. First, with your ability and character, you're bound to win, no matter what. If you didn't win, you probably wouldn't be in the mood to call me."
Ye Tianhui: "That makes sense."
If she didn't win, it would be like the sky was falling. She would have to rack her brains to turn the tide, and she really didn't have the leisure to look for Gu Shizhang.
Gu Shizhang added, "Apart from the inter-class competition, the only person who can worry about you and affect your mood right now is your biological father."
When he said this, Gu Shizhang's heart inevitably felt a little sour.
Who would have thought that Ye Lixuan could now affect Ye Tianhui's mood.
Is this the bond of blood?
For two lifetimes, Ye Tianhui has had such a father.
Ye Tianhui listened and sighed, "You guessed right. He was mad at me and said some nasty things to me... Of course I was angry too, and I said some very emotional things to him. We yelled at each other and finally slammed the table and broke up."
She sighed heavily again: "He will never forgive me in the future, and I don't want to forgive him."
Frustrated and gritting her teeth, she said harshly, "I think our father-daughter relationship ends here!"
Gu Shizhang laughed when he heard her say that. "Look at you, you're talking as if the sky has fallen. It's just a quarrel, isn't it? It will be fine in a few days. It's not a big deal. Father and daughter don't hold grudges overnight. If things really don't work out, can't you just coax him and he'll be fine?"
Ye Tianhui felt a little guilty: "You don't know... He felt that I lied to him, and he was really angry."
Gu Shizhang: "Oh? Tell me about it?"
Ye Tianhui was a little hesitant, but still told Gu Shizhang about the matter in general.
Finally, she said helplessly, "That's how it is. Actually, it's not that I don't trust him. It's not intentional."
Gu Shizhang naturally understood immediately: "You just want to use him to let Ye Wenyin get false information."
Ye Tianhui: "Yes."
If she told him directly, he wouldn't believe it. If she told anyone else, he wouldn't believe it either. Only if she told Ye Lixuan, he might believe it. This was the only way she could think of.
However, in Ye Lixuan's eyes, this was obviously taking advantage of him.
As a person as pure and clear as the wind and bright moon, he naturally felt that her behavior was very disdainful...
Ye Tianhui: "I think there's no way to coax him. He's extremely disappointed in me and he won't forgive me."
She sighed deeply, "I'm about to become a de facto orphan. I've ruined my father, who was once so good."
Gu Shizhang couldn't help but want to laugh when he heard her wilted tone: "How could that be?"
Ye Tianhui was a little unhappy: "Look, you are still laughing, you are still laughing at me!"
Gu Shizhang hurriedly coaxed in a low voice, "I'm not laughing at you, but I think you're taking it too seriously. He won't really be mad at you. After listening to you, I don't think it's a big deal. Don't coax him anymore. Leave him alone for the next few days."
Ye Tianhui frowned: "Ignore it?"
Gu Shizhang: "Well, just do what you should do these few days. If you see him, don't talk to him. Just pretend you didn't see him. If he still ignores you after two or three days, you can think of other ways."
Ye Tianhui: "That's fine."
She was thinking about what she had said to Ye Lixuan today. Now that things had come to this, if she went back to please him, she would be too embarrassed to do so!
Besides, he is angry and may not change his mind immediately, so it is better to leave him alone.
Gu Shizhang: "Well, don't think about it for now."
He frowned for a moment and said, "It seems that I can't see him these few days?"
Ye Tianhui: "Why should I meet him? If he gets mad at me for this, then I'll break up with him. Why would he care if I have a boyfriend? You don't have to meet him anymore."
Gu Shizhang listened and smiled bitterly: "You dare to say that, but I don't dare."
Ye Tianhui: "Why are you so afraid of him? If I don't recognize him as my father, he is nothing."
Gu Shizhang: "Let's not talk about that for now. Since you've already won these three bets, you need to make plans for the next one. This season is only a month away, and there are many things you need to worry about."
Ye Tianhui: "Yes, although I am now the deputy director of the Horse Service Company, I am new here and may not be able to take charge easily. Tomorrow I will go to the Horse Service Company to find out the situation. Time is very tight now. If the Horse Service Company is not easy to take action, then I will find another way and do it alone."
Gu Shizhang: "Oh, what are you going to do?"
Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "Quality is more important than quantity. I've already picked out a jockey, a trainer, and a horse. We can give it a try."
Gu Shizhang raised his eyebrows slightly: "You already have a plan in mind."
Ye Tianhui: "It may not work, but I'll just do my best. I plan to talk to the old man about it tomorrow. If he has no objection, I'll start working on it. I plan to go to the horse service company tomorrow first."
Gu Shizhang: "Then I'll pick you up tomorrow and have dinner together?"
Ye Tianhui was actually a little bit looking forward to it: "What to eat?"
Gu Shizhang thought for a moment and said with a smile, "I'll see if you like it then, right?"
Ye Tianhui: "That's fine..."
After hanging up the phone for a while, Ye Tianhui thought of Ye Lixuan and felt a little unhappy.
She sighed and thought to herself that it wasn't that she didn't care, but she was starting to care about her father.
I said harsh words to him, and while I felt good at the time, I actually didn't feel good about it.
****************
The next morning, Ye Tianhui went downstairs to have breakfast, and found Ye Lixuan and Ye Wenyin at the table.
Ye Tianhui just pretended not to notice and ate what she was supposed to eat. Even if she was a little concerned, it would not affect her appetite.
Ye Lixuan sipped his coffee, occasionally looking up at her, but Ye Tianhui pretended not to notice.
On the contrary, Ye Wenyin seemed to sense something unusual about the father and daughter, but she didn't say anything.
This time when Ye Tianhui entered the Ma Wu Company, she was far inferior in comparison and felt ashamed. She did not sleep well last night and her face looked ugly today.
After dinner, Ye Tianhui was about to go out, but at this time the old man sent his secretary over and said he wanted to invite her.
Ye Lixuan had already opened the door and was about to leave. Upon hearing this, he said calmly, "Then I'll go over too."
Ye Tianhui was surprised, but didn't say anything. The father and daughter went to the main room together.
In the leaf garden on an autumn morning, there is a thin morning mist lingering among the flowers and trees. On the roadside are lavender hibiscus flowers, with layers of stamens spread out, stained with a little morning dew, and crystal clear.
The father and daughter were walking side by side, but no one spoke, they just focused on walking.
When they passed the main room, they saw the old man, the second wife, Ye Lizhen and Ye Lizhen's eldest son Ye Wenyong were all there. Everyone greeted them and the old man smiled and asked them to sit down.
In fact, it was nothing important, but now Ye Tianhui was going to work at the Horse Service Company. Everything was difficult at the beginning, and Ye Tianhui was an airdrop. Now the general direction of the Horse Service Company was managed by Ye Lizhen, and Ye Wenyong was the general manager, responsible for daily affairs management. Now that Ye Tianhui joined the Horse Service Company, the old man roughly talked about the funds that Ye Tianhui could mobilize and the subsequent scope of jurisdiction.
Obviously, the old man also wanted to make things clear to avoid any dissatisfaction. This is why Ye Lizhen and Ye Lixuan were both there. After all, they were the elders of the two families.
As they chatted, Ye Lizhen chuckled and said, "Lixuan has loved studying since he was young and disliked worldly affairs. Who would have thought that he would have such a capable daughter like Tianhui? It's really enviable."
The Second Wife smiled and said, "To be honest, you and your daughter have completely different personalities."
Ye Tianhui pretended not to hear them talking, and Ye Lixuan also had a blank expression on his face, looking cold and indifferent, without any reaction at all.
The mother and son felt a little embarrassed when they saw this. How could they have such a father and daughter?
The old man didn't care. He knew the temperament of his third son. He was just like that. As for his granddaughter Ye Tianhui, she didn't play by the rules, so he could only turn a blind eye.
He pretended not to know and asked everyone to leave with a smile. He wanted to talk to Ye Tianhui alone.
At once, everyone stood up and left, and the old man chatted with Ye Tianhui alone.
Ye Tianhui knew that this kind of conversation was usually heart-to-heart, trying to win people over and finally look to the future.
She handled the situation skillfully and also talked about her future plans, which made the old man very satisfied.
He sighed, "You've already made up your mind."
Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "Since I dare to propose it, I must have a plan in mind, and it can only succeed, not fail."
Mr. Ye smiled and said, "Okay, it's up to you."
He mentioned, "I heard the Meng family has invested a lot of money this time and is going all out. They've hired top riders from Europe and the United States, and a few days ago, they auctioned off three horses: a British thoroughbred, an Arabian, and an Argentinian. These horses have all won major awards in world-class competitions."
He sighed, "So the opponent we're facing this time is very strong. The person in charge of the Meng family's horse racing just returned from the United States."
Ye Tianhui had actually been keeping an eye on the Meng family of Hong Kong recently and had a general understanding of their situation: "Grandpa, are you saying that Meng Yinian from the Meng family is back?"
Old Master Ye nodded: "Yes, Meng Yinian."
Meng Yinian is one of the most outstanding grandchildren of the Meng family. When he was a teenager, he received systematic equestrian training in Wiltshire, England, and then studied at a famous British university. At the age of eighteen, he was already a registered professional rider of the International Equestrian Federation. At the age of twenty, he participated in the Kentucky Derby, but unfortunately lost to the famous rider Louis Madden at the time and only won the runner-up. Later, he avenged his previous defeat at the Belmont Stakes and won the championship.
In recent years, Meng Yinian has retreated behind the scenes, established his own racecourse in the UK, and trained his own racehorses and jockeys.
It is obvious that the Meng family will use Meng Yinian's resources for this Hong Kong Jockey Club, but Ye Tianhui did not expect that the Meng family would actually pull him back to take charge of the situation.
Ye Tianhui: "I only knew this person when I read the news report of the Meng family, but not in enough detail."
Mr. Ye: "I will ask my secretary to give you all his information. Please take a close look at it. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you achieve a surprise victory."
He shook his head and sighed, "The Meng family has this person, who is their magic weapon for success. That's why I'm worried when I mention this race meeting. We lack a solid foundation compared to them. But we must try to secure that piece of land in Sha Tin. We must win the race this season. Otherwise, if we lose, our Ye family will no longer be qualified to compete with the Meng family."
Ye Tianhui: "I understand."
So the Ye family was inevitably a little panicked and bought four horses from Britain at a high price in a hurry.
But horse racing requires a foundation and must be operated for a long time. If it is purchased in such a hurry, the chances of winning will be very small compared to the Meng family with a deep foundation, especially against Meng Yinian.
Thinking of this, she suddenly understood why the old man was determined to seize this marriage opportunity with the Gu family.
If the Ye family loses to the Meng family in this horse racing season, their subsequent entry into the Horse Racing Standing Committee and the development of the Sha Tin racecourse will all be in vain. This may trigger a chain reaction, and the Ye family will no longer be able to compete in Hong Kong, and may even decline from now on.
And if they can firmly grasp the marriage with the Gu family, they may be able to save their descendants from a glimmer of hope at a critical moment.
Old Master Ye said, "So, Tianhui, don't think that I am an old man with a head full of calculations, and that I am putting the marriages and interests of my children and grandchildren on my chessboard. Someone has to play this game, and if I don't play, then others will play our chess."
Upon hearing this, Ye Tianhui expressed her opinion, "Grandpa, I naturally understand what you're saying. Speaking of which, I have to say that you must be well aware of everything that happened before I came to the Ye family. Since you've seen it all, I won't have to argue with Ye Wenyin. From now on, if she behaves herself and stays as the daughter of the Ye family, then I won't have to be hard on her."
Old Master Ye said, "You are different from her. You are the bloodline of our Ye family and must be carefully cultivated. Although you are a girl, I also hope that you will one day support half of the Ye family. But she is different after all. I have investigated her mother's past deeds. If she behaves herself and seizes this marriage with the Gu family, we will accept it and let her do what she wants. But if she does not behave herself, I will naturally handle it impartially."
Handle impartially?
Ye Tianhui chuckled and said, "Grandpa, you should be able to see that I have never been a coward who repays evil with kindness. I have always believed that justice should be in my own hands."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Ye paused and slowly raised his eyes to look at his granddaughter.
She had a bright face, clear eyes and eyebrows, and a slight smile on her face, but there was an indomitable resilience in her words.
Then he clearly understood that this was not a granddaughter whom he could control at will.
He was silent for a long time, and finally smiled: "Tianhui, you have your own opinions, which is good. I will give you what you deserve. As for how to do it and to what extent you can achieve it, it depends on you."
