Chapter 49 You don't even acknowledge your own mother anymore?
Ye Zhen spoke eloquently to the reporter, mentioning the orphanage and the director, Mother, several times.
After the interview, Ye Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that the interview would bring benefits to the orphanage.
Liu Qing came over and took Ye Zhen's arm: "Now you're famous, you talented woman!"
Ye Zhen smiled.
But after the reporter left, the Ye family members looked quite grim.
Ye Chengbei was the first to lose his temper: "Ye Zhen, you are a member of the Ye family. In front of the reporters, you should say good things about the Ye family. How can you praise the Dean's mother in every sentence?"
"Yes, sister, it was Mom who carried you for ten months and gave birth to you. How can you recognize someone else as your mother?"
Ye Zhenzhu's eyes were filled with a smile; it would be best if the Ye family could see Ye Zhen's true colors.
Before Ye Zhen could speak, Liu Qing spoke first.
"Oh my god, what do you mean by ten months of pregnancy and childbirth? If it weren't for the headmistress raising Ye Zhen, she would be dead by now!"
Ye Zhen looked at Zhao Wanru and said, "That's right. I was abandoned on the street back then, but the kind-hearted headmistress took me in."
Zhao Wanru's eyes reddened slightly: "I didn't know you had been switched. You are my own daughter, how could I not care about you?"
Liu Qing snorted coldly: "If you really cared, then why didn't anyone from your Ye family come to see her or show any concern for her during the few days she was away? Only after learning that she won an award did you shamelessly come over."
Zhao Wanru was a little embarrassed: "I was teaching her."
“There are many ways to teach her, but you chose to ignore it. If Ye Zhenzhu ran away from home like this, would you still be so indifferent?”
Zhao Wanru fell silent immediately. Of course not.
When she realized this problem, she felt very upset. Had she really done a bad job?
Ye Zhenzhu quickly said, "Sister, are you still holding a grudge against Mother for not letting you be interviewed by the reporters? Mother was worried that you would say the wrong thing."
Ye Zhen revealed a mocking smile: "If you were really worried that I would say the wrong thing, shouldn't you have taught me some things to be careful about beforehand?"
Zhao Wanru: "That's not how it is, I..."
Liu Qing continued, "You keep saying that Ye Zhen came from an orphanage, that she doesn't know anything, and that she's never seen the world. But this isn't her fault. You could have taught her, you could have given her more love, but what did you do?"
Zhao Wanru's eyes filled with tears: "Ye Zhen, it's all my fault. I thought that with your eldest and fourth brothers around, they would take good care of you."
She was too busy with work and neglected these things.
Ye Zhen saw Zhao Wanru's tears, but to be honest, she didn't feel anything.
Because her expectations for the Ye family and her parents had long since died.
Liu Qing then spoke sarcastically, "Didn't you just say that you were born after ten months of pregnancy? But after bringing her home, you just left her at home and ignored her. Is this what you call maternal love? This treatment is even worse than my little yellow dog."
Zhao Wanru was so angry she could hardly breathe, but she couldn't refute him.
Zhao Wanru's heart was breaking when she saw Ye Zhen calling her "Dean Mom" repeatedly.
Zhao Wanru walked to Ye Zhen's side: "It was my fault, I won't do it again."
Ye Zhen took a step back: "No need."
She doesn't care about the things she couldn't get in her past life, even until her death.
Ye Zhen turned around and prepared to leave with Liu Qing and the others.
"Stop right there! You think you can just leave like that? Zhou Chi'an beat me up like this, are you just going to let it go like this?"
Ye Chengbei was unwilling to accept this and kept thinking about sending Zhou Chi'an to jail to leave a criminal record.
Ye Zhen frowned, but still couldn't dodge it.
Liu Qing said, "You started the fight by hitting someone first."
Ye Chengbei: "That's not up to you. If we go to court, Guangfa will make the judgment."
"You're clearly abusing your power to bully us."
Liu Qing was somewhat angry, but also somewhat worried.
At this moment, He Baizhou walked over and said, "Ye Zhen, this matter is neither a big deal nor a small one."
Ye Zhen took a deep breath: "What do you want?"
"Ye Zhen, your mother has booked a banquet for you to celebrate. My older brother might also be coming, so you have to stay."
He Baizhou walked to Ye Zhen's side, took her hand and said, "You are my fiancée. Just say the word and these are all trivial matters."
Ye Zhen knew what He Baizhou meant; he was threatening her.
Zhao Wanru looked at Ye Chengbei: "You too, don't act so impulsively. Your sister won first place today, which brings honor to the family. Don't hold it against her friends."
Ye Chengbei was very unwilling, but since He Baizhou had already spoken, he couldn't say anything.
Ye Zhen turned around and looked at Liu Qing and Zhou Chi'an: "I have something to do, you guys go first, let's meet again next time."
They had planned to celebrate together, but now that's not possible.
Liu Qing looked at Ye Zhen with concern: "You don't need to do this. They started it anyway. Is there no law anymore?"
Zhou Chi'an's tone was also not very good: "I will take responsibility for my own actions."
He had no intention of having Ye Zhen, a girl, atone for his sins.
Ye Zhen shook her head: "You're overthinking it. After all, I got first place today, so I have to go home and celebrate."
This whole thing started because of her.
If she hadn't been there, Ye Chengbei wouldn't have fought with Zhou Chi'an. Although Ye Chengbei struck first, the Ye family was wealthy and powerful, so dealing with Liu Qing and Zhou Chi'an was effortless for them.
Sometimes, you just have to accept it.
Liu Qing was at a loss for words.
Ye Zhenzhu took Ye Zhen's arm and said, "Since you've said so, let's go."
He Baizhou breathed a sigh of relief; he was worried that Ye Zhen wouldn't give him that face.
After all, he felt a little jealous when he saw Ye Zhen chatting and laughing with Zhou Chi'an. He was Ye Zhen's fiancé, but she had hardly ever smiled at him, yet she smiled so much at Zhou Chi'an.
Ye Zhen left with the Ye family.
But the smile on her face faded considerably, since she had no intention of celebrating with them.
The group went directly to the hotel's large private room.
Zhao Wanru looked at Ye Zhen, her tone cautious: "You won the award, what reward do you want?"
Ye Zhen looked over: "Anything is fine?"
"If it's something I can do, of course I can."
Ye Zhen said directly, "I want to move out."
She didn't want to live in the Ye family's house at all.
Zhao Wanru was stunned: "Move out to live? But where outside is as good as home?"
"Yes, sister, we've all made up now, why do you still need to move out? Mom came back specifically to take care of us."
Ye Zhenzhu didn't want Ye Zhen to leave. What if Ye Zhen's studies were delayed?
Zhao Wanru added, "Yes, you live at home."
Ye Zhen said impatiently, "If you can't do something, don't ask for it lightly."
"Ye Zhen, Mom is thinking about your safety, and you still objected?"
Ye Chengdong stormed in, looking extremely anxious. Recently, the company had encountered a lot of problems for no apparent reason, and he had been working overtime for the past few days.
He only made time to come back after hearing that Ye Zhen had won an award.
Ye Zhenzhu: "Big brother, that's not what I meant."
"Hmph, Ye Zhen, what did you mean by those words you said in front of the reporters? You only got first place because of the Ye family. Do you really think you got first place on your own merit?"
Ye Chengdong pointed at Ye Zhen's nose and scolded, "You keep calling the dean 'Mom,' where do you put our mother?"
