Chapter 91
Ye Lixuan and Ye Yibai arrived in Hong Kong by private plane. That evening, after a qualifying match, Ye Tianhui rushed to see her aunt Ye Yibai.
Ye Yibai and his wife had a grand ceremony, with a row of bodyguards standing by the tarmac, as well as dedicated maids and assistants.
Ye Yibai is not tall, but she looks kind and gentle, beautiful and timeless, younger than she actually is, and has the demeanor of a lady from a noble family in the Republic of China.
When she saw Ye Tianhui, she fondly held her hand, looked her over carefully, and then smiled, "You're really pretty. You look a bit like your father when he was young, and a bit like your mother. I knew right away that you were my niece. It's true that blood relatives are the closest relatives."
Ye Lixuan beside him laughed and said, "Are they similar?"
Ye Yibai: "I can tell she's your biological daughter at first glance. I'm afraid you're the only one who thinks she doesn't look like her!"
As he said this, Tao Yunqiao also got off the plane. He had been in a car accident in his early years and had disabled legs. He was sitting in a wheelchair and was pushed out by his assistant.
Ye Lixuan also hurriedly introduced him. Ye Tianhui stepped forward to greet him. It could be seen that Tao Yunqiao was an elegant and intellectual man, a little thin and pale. He must have been very handsome when he was young.
When he saw Ye Tianhui, he was very friendly and made people feel good about him.
After a few pleasantries, the group got into their cars, all of which were top-of-the-line luxury cars, and drove back in a mighty procession, finally arriving at the mansion on Bai Jianshi Road at the top of the mountain, which was made up of several buildings.
Ye Yibai smiled and took Ye Tianhui's hand, saying, "Ever since we went to America, this place has been unused. Now that we're back, we can only ask the servants to clean it up in advance. You can come here often in the future. I'll set up a room for you here so that we don't look too desolate."
Ye Tianhui couldn't help but feel curious after hearing this, and after asking, she found out that they had a pair of children, but they were both studying in the UK and would not come back.
Ye Tianhui: "This place is not far from my horse farm. I will come and bother you when I have time."
Tao Yunqiao smiled and said, "I heard from your father that you are good at sports, such as riding horses and playing ball. We should also exercise regularly in the future. If you have time, you can accompany us and let us learn from you."
After saying this and laughing, everyone settled down and had dinner together. Ye Yibai gave Ye Tianhui a gift, which was a set of jade bracelets. It was obvious that they were of extraordinary value.
Ye Yibai smiled and said, "You are still young now, so you may not like it. But maybe it will be suitable for you to wear when you get married in the future."
Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "I like it very much. This jade has a pure color. There is a hint of blue in the green, but it is not biased. It is priceless to have such a color. I am just afraid that I am too young to hold onto it."
Ye Yibai listened, also surprised. "You actually know something. I can tell you're an expert. You know, this color of jade is the most beautiful and the most appropriate. If this blue-gray is too strong, it would be an evil color, not the right color. But this color is the best, deep and noble."
She smiled and said, "Actually, although Tianhui is young, she has a good foundation, bright eyes and eyebrows, and is bold and beautiful. If she were to wear this set of jade, it would be just right. She is so much better than those impetuous young people."
After hearing this, Ye Lixuan said, "Yibai, stop praising her. If you praise her any more, her tail will stick up."
Everyone was chatting and laughing as they mentioned that the old man was about to turn 70, which was at the end of the year, and the horse racing season would probably be over by then.
Ye Yibai: "Brother, you don't have to say anything. I know what you mean. Let's settle down first. In a couple of days, Yunqiao and I will go to the old house to visit him, so you don't have to make things difficult for us."
Ye Tianhui heard this from the side and glanced at Ye Lixuan.
She could see that her father was a peacemaker.
There's nothing you can do about it. This man is just like that. You can't expect too much from him.
Tao Yunqiao beside him smiled and said, "That's right, we should go over and take a look. We have also prepared a big gift for this birthday banquet, and we will celebrate it well with father-in-law."
Seeing this, Ye Yibai didn't mention it anymore. Instead, she asked Ye Tianhui about everything that happened in the competition. Ye Tianhui naturally brought it up. In front of such a kind aunt, she had nothing to hide and told her about her current situation.
Ye Yibai was very satisfied after hearing this and said with a smile, "You are really different from your father. You are a bit like your mother when she was young. I think this old man seems to have changed his temperament. He likes you very much now. It's a good thing that you are liked by him. You should work hard and try to get more of the family property in the future."
She sighed, "After all, you are a legitimate granddaughter. Your status is much better than those illegitimate grandchildren. It's better for us to keep the Ye family's things in our own hands than to let those evil spirits and monsters take them."
Ye Tianhui naturally agreed after hearing this: "Yes, we should get what we deserve. How can we let others get it for free? We must not act hypocritical when asking for money!"
Ye Yibai laughed, and for a moment the aunt and niece seemed to be getting along quite well. As they were talking, they inevitably mentioned Ye Wenyin.
Because Ye Lixuan was there, Ye Tianhui didn't really want to say much, so she was vague about it. She talked about the reasons why Feng Suqin stayed at home. Ye Yibai listened and said thoughtfully, "It's better to keep her at home. Let your grandfather send someone to investigate and find out what happened back then. If there are some clues, we can know the truth and feel comforted."
Ye Lixuan said, "Yes, I've also learned about this matter. I've already contacted Union Hospital and asked them to review the files from that year."
Tao Yunqiao also asked while listening from the side. It was obvious that both of them were very concerned about this matter. Ye Yibai even sneered.
"When I go back to the old house in a couple of days, I'll ask her and take another look at Feng Suqin. What on earth is so bold as to dare to come to Hong Kong?"
For a moment, his words were filled with contempt: "And Wen Yin, actually, I've never liked her. I always thought she was timid and had bad intentions. Now I find out that she is not my biological niece. No wonder!"
Ye Lixuan smiled bitterly: "You are saying this now, why didn't you mention it before?"
When Ye Yibai heard this, she glared at him and said, "Who could have guessed that? I just feel bad."
Ye Tianhui had never expected that the brother and sister seemed to be on the verge of quarreling at any time, so she quickly advised: "Daddy, Aunt, this is all in the past, let's not talk about it."
Tao Yunqiao beside him also hurriedly tried to persuade him, and Ye Yibai finally said, "Let's not talk about this matter. Instead, I want to ask, isn't Ye Tianhui in a relationship now? With Shi Zhang? What's going on?"
Tao Yunqiao, who was standing by, was also surprised: "I really didn't expect this."
You know, after all, Ye Yibai and Gu Shizhang are quite familiar with each other. The couple is only seven or eight years older than Gu Shizhang, and they are of the same generation. But now his niece is actually going to fall in love with Gu Shizhang. This is something he never expected.
Ye Tianhui listened and had no choice but to bite the bullet and give a brief account of the matter. Finally, she said vaguely, "That's probably what happened."
Ye Yibai frowned slightly, feeling somewhat helpless. "I'll call Shi Zhang one day and ask him what he has to say. Why would he, out of nothing, go after my niece?"
When Ye Tianhui heard this, she thought to herself that she had finally managed to get Ye Lixuan, and what if her aunt turned out to be against it?
This aunt is very nice, and she doesn't want to quarrel with her anymore.
He immediately said hurriedly, "Aunt, please don't misunderstand me. He didn't attack me, I attacked him. So it's not the old cow eating the young grass, it's the calf eating the old grass."
Ye Yibai was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Okay, whatever you want, but I still need to talk to him later."
***********
The father and daughter did not leave until later in the evening. The car was driving on the road, and the father and daughter were talking.
Ye Tianhui was naturally in a good mood. Her uncle and aunt were really approachable and likable.
She laughed and sighed, "Daddy, I think my aunt and uncle are much better than you."
Ye Lixuan laughed and said, "I think you are a snob who only cares about whoever gives you milk."
Ye Tianhui was particularly confident and righteous: "I am just like this, so what?"
Ye Lixuan was also amused for a moment: "You are so proud that your tail is raised high."
As they were talking, the two returned to the Ye family. Unexpectedly, Mr. Ye's assistant came over and asked Ye Tianhui to go see the old man.
Ye Lixuan raised his eyebrows slightly: "I actually asked you to come over instead of me."
Ye Tianhui was puzzled: "What's wrong? Are you and I still jealous of each other as father and daughter?"
Ye Lixuan smiled and said, "Whatever the old man asks, you should be more careful and speak properly."
Ye Tianhui: "Don't worry, I'm good at this kind of thing. I know what to say and what not to say."
Ye Lixuan: "Okay, I think you are much better than me."
Ye Tianhui sighed: "You are somewhat self-aware."
Ye Tianhui went to the main hall for a while. When the life assistant saw Ye Tianhui coming, he led her to the lounge next to it.
In the lounge, a family health doctor was giving the old man a massage, and it was almost over.
When the old man heard Ye Tianhui come in, he half opened his eyes and raised his hand to signal the masseur: "Okay, go down first."
The masseur bowed slightly and then left silently.
The old man sat up, leaned comfortably on the sofa, and looked at Ye Tianhui: "Is your aunt back today?"
Ye Tianhui: "Yes."
The old man nodded: "Very good, very good."
Seeing this, Ye Tianhui no longer mentioned her aunt, but instead talked about the horse racing situation and her own plans for the future.
The old man asked a few questions casually, so Ye Tianhui simply reported in detail the current situation of each horse, his opponents, his next strategy, and the training of each horse.
This conversation lasted for quite a while.
When she reported this, it was obvious that the old man didn't listen at all.
He was impatient, he didn't want to hear this, he wanted to hear something else.
Ye Tianhui found it funny when she saw this.
But will she do as he wishes? She must make him feel uncomfortable.
So she went on to talk about horse racing, even going so far as to describe the taste of each horse and the importation of hay.
When Ye Tianhui actually talked about the difference in taste between Tengyunwu and Longguang, the old man finally couldn't help it.
He said seriously, "Just keep these in mind. You don't need to report every detail to me."
Ye Tianhui: "Okay, in that case, Grandpa, you can rest first, I'm going back."
When the old man heard this, his eyebrows furrowed.
Ye Tianhui: "What's the matter, Grandpa? Is there anything else?"
The old man looked away as if he didn't care. He coughed lightly and said nonchalantly, "You and your father went to your aunt's house today. What did you say?"
Ye Tianhui: "We didn't say anything, just chatted about some family matters."
The old man continued to ask: "What did you talk about?"
Ye Tianhui was a little surprised: "Grandpa, you are so concerned about family matters. Why didn't you tell me earlier? If you had told me earlier, I would have told you."
The old man took a deep breath and finally said, "Okay, tell me and I'll listen."
He also realized that his granddaughter was clearly playing a trick on him, but he could only accept it.
He was too embarrassed to say he wanted to know.
Ye Tianhui then recounted everything that had happened to Ye Yibai and Tao Yunqiao today, describing it in considerable detail.
The old man listened, his face expressionless at first, but then he twitched his lips and laughed mockingly: "This heartless and ungrateful daughter, she has grown up so much, does she still care about me as her father?"
Ye Tianhui: "Why is it gone?"
The old man gritted his teeth: "She has grown up, her wings have become stronger, and she is so ruthless!"
Ye Tianhui: "I don't know about that. This is a matter between you elders. As the younger generation, how can we know about this?"
The old man felt even more unhappy after hearing this, but Ye Tianhui really didn't know about this, and he had no way to vent his anger, which made him feel uncomfortable for a while.
Seeing that his face was as pale as pig liver, Ye Tianhui simply stood up and said, "Grandpa, it's getting late. I'm going back to my room first. You should have a good rest."
No matter how unhappy Mr. Ye was, he could only swallow his anger and nodded, "Okay."
When Ye Tianhui reached the door, she stopped, and suddenly seemed to remember something. She turned around and said, "Oh, Grandpa, there's one more thing I forgot to tell you."
Master Ye: "What? Tell me."
His tone was somewhat impatient.
Ye Tianhui said: "My uncle and aunt said that they have prepared a gift for you and will celebrate your birthday on your birthday. They also said that they will come to see you in two days."
Mr. Ye asked: "What?"
Then he quickly said, "Is it true?"
Ye Tianhui: "Why would I lie to you? This is what my aunt said!"
A complicated expression appeared on Mr. Ye's face.
Afterwards, he looked at Ye Tianhui deeply and finally said, "Then why didn't you say it earlier?"
Ye Tianhui looked innocent: "Grandpa, you didn't ask me, how would I know you wanted to know this?"
Mr. Ye: “…”
*************
After returning to the room, Gu Shizhang called, and Ye Tianhui told him everything that happened today.
Finally, she smiled and said, "You don't know the look on my grandfather's face. He was so angry but he had to hold it in. This is the first time I've seen that. I almost died of laughter!"
She remembered that he also gave massages: "He used massage to maintain his health, but it must have been in vain!"
Gu Shizhang listened and laughed, "I guess you're the only one in your Ye family who dares to treat him like this."
If it were someone else, the old man would have thrown that person out long ago.
He laughed and sighed, "You are becoming more and more lawless now."
Ye Tianhui laughed and said, "I'm just teasing him. He wants to know. Why is he pretending? I won't spoil him!"
Ye Tianhui said with a smile, "By the way, there is one more thing. My aunt said she wants to meet you."
Gu Shizhang said "Oh" softly: "She wants to see me. It's been a long time since we last met. I will go visit them in a couple of days."
Ye Tianhui remembered what her aunt said, and smiled and reminded: "Then tell me, what should you call my aunt when you see her?"
Gu Shizhang was stunned for a moment and remained silent for a moment.
You have to know that Ye Yibai is a few years younger than Ye Lixuan, and only eight or nine years older than Gu Shizhang. They are of the same generation, so he naturally calls Ye Yibai "sister".
Now I can only follow Ye Tianhui and call her aunt.
Of course, we also have to call Tao Yunqiao uncle.
Gu Shizhang smiled bitterly and said, "Since I'm with you, I can only accept my fate. Anyway, I've already started calling your dad uncle, so what's the big deal about calling him aunt? It's not a big deal."
Ye Tianhui smiled: "Okay, then wait for two days, remember to prepare a gift, then you will meet your aunt!"
***********
In the past two days, Ye Yibai and Tao Yunqiao went back to the Ye family to visit Old Master Ye.
It can be seen that Ye Yibai and the second wife have a bad relationship and are incompatible with each other. She also has a distant relationship with Old Man Ye.
However, it was obvious that Mr. Ye was looking forward to the arrival of his daughter. On the first day, he specifically instructed the kitchen to prepare a few more dishes and had the hall decorated.
Of course, when Ye Yibai and his wife came over, he was still arrogant and cold, with an unfriendly look on his face like a feudal patriarch.
Ye Tianhui saw this and couldn't help laughing, thinking that the old man really deserved it.
Ye Yibai naturally also asked about Feng Suqin. She was still young when she left the mainland, but she still remembered Feng Suqin, so she called Feng Suqin over to question her.
Ye Wenyin originally wanted to get close to Ye Yibai and try to please her, but when she saw Feng Suqin, she felt very embarrassed and quickly hid away.
Although Ye Wenyin is still the daughter of the Ye family, everyone knows the situation.
Ye Yibai also mentioned it to Old Master Ye: "Don't look at me and feel uncomfortable. I think everyone feels uncomfortable except you."
Mr. Ye pondered for a moment, and finally said, "We can buy her a house outside and let her live there first. When she goes to study in the UK, we can give her some money and she won't have to come back."
This is his solution.
Ye Tianhui was obviously dissatisfied, but she didn't say anything.
She could let Ye Wenyin go, but Ye Wenyin must admit her mistake. If she admitted her mistake, she could give her money and let her go. From then on, she would never be allowed to set foot in Hong Kong again and would have to live her life in a foreign country.
But she refused to admit defeat and insisted on being stubborn with him, so she wouldn't get a penny.
There is no such easy good thing in this world. There is always a cost for committing crimes. The so-called instant enlightenment is all a lie.
But of course she didn't mention it.
People have different opinions, so she doesn't have to convince others.
Ye Yibai smiled upon hearing this and said, "Then let's have lunch together first. After all, we are now under the name of the Ye family."
Who would have thought that during the meal, Ye Yibai praised Ye Tianhui and everyone else, but was quite cold towards Ye Wenyin, and even said directly, "You are indeed my Ye family's biological daughter", which made Ye Wenyin feel very uncomfortable.
It just so happened that Feng Suqin was also called over to serve, so she stood aside and helped serve tea and water from time to time.
After this, Ye Wenyin couldn't stand it anymore and hurriedly found an excuse to leave.
But even so, Ye Wenyin obviously had no intention of leaving. She just wanted to stay here.
Ye Tianhui roughly understood what she meant. She wanted to find a suitable husband's family as soon as possible and marry into the Ye family. This would maximize her benefits.
If she moved away, or went to England, she would lose everything.
In fact, from this point of view, Ye Wenyin is a smart person. She is very good at calculating every penny of her own interests.
When Ye Yibai came to the Ye family this time, it was obvious that Mr. Ye was generally very happy. He also mentioned what to do for his 70th birthday, and the whole family had a good discussion about it.
Of course, such a discussion would bring up horse racing, which is key these days. If good results can be achieved in horse racing, the 70th birthday party would naturally be even more glorious.
When this was mentioned, Ye Tianhui was naturally mentioned. Now, several horses under Ye Tianhui have been winning battles again and again, winning large sums of money and rising step by step.
Everyone in the Ye family was overjoyed. They were all betting crazily on Ye Tianhui's horses and won a lot of money. Who wouldn't like that?
Naturally, everyone was very flattering to Ye Tianhui, and they all asked about the situation at the racecourse, hoping to make more money.
At this time, as for Ye Tianhui herself, because of repeated victories, the three horses, Hell King, Longguang and Black Rose, have now become popular horses. Those horse fans are rushing to bet on them. After becoming popular horses, the relative odds naturally dropped. There is no way, she bought too much.
However, this naturally also put some pressure on Chen Zongwan and Lin Jianquan.
If you always win, and win every game without missing a beat, you will inevitably become more and more afraid of losing.
Too many people worship them crazily and bet on them to win. Once they lose, the disappointment and frustration will envelop them and even defeat them.
While these two jockeys were climbing the ladder, Nie Pingqi also lived up to his name and rose from nowhere. In just half a season, he had risen out of nowhere, becoming a hot headline in Hong Kong and a new legend in Hong Kong.
The horse he rode, Invincible Power, gradually attracted people's attention because of its outstanding performance, and more and more horse fans began to bet on Invincible Power.
Of course, in addition to these popular jockeys, the most eye-catching combination is Ke Zhiming and Longhua Jiaren.
This battle-hardened legend, although now nearly thirty years old, still retains his charm and style. He has won many victories on the racecourse with unstoppable momentum, and seems to be ready to create another legend.
The jockeys and horses that stole the spotlight naturally became hot topics on horse racing TV programs and horse racing newspapers. Countless horse fans began to study these jockeys and horses crazily, and some people even started betting in advance on this year's season champion.
The championship is a huge prize of HK$8 million, which is a great honor for the horse king of the season. Those who bet on the championship will naturally receive generous rewards, which is enough to drive people crazy.
In this madness, Lin Jianquan, who had overcome many difficulties, finally encountered Nie Pingqi who suddenly appeared.
This is inevitable.
In this horse racing season, Lin Jianquan will eventually encounter a strong opponent, it may be Nie Pingqi, or it may be Ke Zhiming, of course it is possible that they will meet together and compete in the arena.
Ye Tianhui opened the competition ranking list and felt a little heavy in her heart.
Lin Jianquan has now reached the finals, but the finals are also a points elimination system.
She had studied the points rules. In such a fierce competition, if one wanted to finally climb to the top of the horse rankings of the season, it was allowed that one time in the qualifying round one could not get the first place.
If you fail to win the first place and only finish second, your points will be reduced, but according to that complex calculation system, you will still have a chance to compete for the first place.
But to be on the safe side, she certainly hoped that Black Rose could go further, rather than losing this opportunity early and being defeated by Invincible Power.
But now it has happened so early.
She closed the points ranking competition, which was naturally very disadvantageous for Lin Jianquan.
Although his competition experience was increasing rapidly at this time, he was still slightly inferior to Nie Ping.
Meeting him now is obviously disadvantageous.
Now Lin Jianquan has accumulated a lot of points since this season and his score is very high. In this case, if Nie Pingqi can beat him, it means that Nie Pingqi's points will skyrocket. It is very likely that even if Lin Jianquan wins all the first places in the future, he will no longer be able to be compared with Nie Pingqi.
What's more, after Nie Pingqi, there was another powerful opponent, Ke Zhiming.
If Black Rose loses two games in a row, she will no longer be eligible to compete for the title of Horse King.
For her, this is nothing. Besides the Black Rose, she also has the Light of War and the King of Hell.
However, this match was the first confrontation between Nie Pingqi and Lin Jianquan, and also the first confrontation between the Meng and Ye families.
Both sides must be craning their necks to see the result.
In this way, a seemingly insignificant qualifying match has become a peak battle.
