Chapter 54 You are my daughter, you must listen to me
Ye Zhen's face turned pale with anger after hearing what Han Zicha said.
Although she kept telling herself not to care about what the Ye family said, she was really angry now.
Zhao Wanru chimed in, "If I don't keep an eye on you, and you actually cause someone's death, it will be too late to regret it then."
Ye Zhen lowered her eyelids, revealing a hint of sarcasm: "I don't need you to tell me what to do."
"You are my daughter, if I don't take care of you, who will?"
"But I don't want to be your daughter!"
Ye Zhen immediately raised her voice: "Do you think I should be grateful to you just because I was brought back? Let me tell you the truth, I don't care at all!"
Zhao Wanru was stunned; she hadn't expected Ye Zhen to say that.
"Sister, if you have something on your mind, just say it now. It's not good for our family to keep having these conflicts. Mom and Fourth Brother are actually very worried about you, that's all."
Ye Zhenzhu's words were very apt.
Upon hearing these words, Zhao Wanru and Ye Chengbei immediately felt much more relaxed and at ease.
Ye Chengbei looked at Ye Zhen with a stern face: "Alright, I won't hold it against you for losing the game before. You don't need to hold a grudge about this and run away from home to live with another man."
Zhao Wanru added, "Look, even your fourth brother isn't arguing with you anymore, what more do you want? Come back quickly and keep your distance from that man!"
She originally thought that Ye Zhen was the one who caused this.
But who would have thought that Ye Zhen's temper was getting worse and worse, and she would run away from home at the drop of a hat.
She's now involved with an unidentified man, which must be stopped.
The Ye family is currently negotiating an important collaboration and cannot afford any negative news, which is why she came to Ye Zhen to discuss reconciliation.
Ye Zhen said coldly, "I only have one request, and that is that you do not appear in front of me."
Ye Zhenzhu quickly laughed and said, "Sister, what are you joking about? You don't need to run away from home again. What if something happens to you outside?"
Seeing how sensible Ye Zhenzhu was, and then looking at how stubborn Ye Zhen was, Zhao Wanru felt utterly exhausted.
Zhao Wanru pulled Ye Zhenzhu along, saying, "I wish you were my biological daughter."
Ye Zhenzhu has always been sweet-talking and obedient since she was a child, never causing her any worry.
Ye Zhen was unmoved by the scene of motherly love and filial piety.
If it were me in my past life, I would definitely feel very sad at this moment, after all, I also longed for maternal love when I was in the orphanage.
Unfortunately, she will never have it in her lifetime.
Ye Zhenzhu felt a surge of pride and stepped forward to take Ye Zhen's arm: "Sister, let's go to school together. We can go home together after school this afternoon!"
Ye Zhen pushed Ye Zhenzhu away, saying, "Stay away from me."
Ye Zhenzhu was caught off guard and pushed Zhao Wanru. Zhao Wanru stepped forward to support Ye Zhenzhu: "Zhenzhu, are you alright?"
"Mom, I'm fine. My sister is probably still angry with me. After all, if it weren't for me, she wouldn't have been stranded for so many years. I owe my sister so much; it's all my fault."
Ye Zhenzhu appeared magnanimous and understanding.
Ye Chengbei couldn't stand it any longer. He pulled Ye Zhen aside and said, "Pearl has been so tolerant, how can you push your luck? You should apologize to Pearl right now."
"Fourth Brother, there's no need for my sister to apologize to me. I was the one who was wrong, not her."
Ye Zhenzhu's bowed head and submissive demeanor was heartbreaking.
Ye Zhen felt a wave of helplessness; these hypocrites were spouting nonsense again.
Are they sick?
Don't they get tired of the same old story playing out over and over again?
Zhao Wanru ordered Ye Zhen: "Your sister kindly offered you a way out, why did you push her? Why are you so disobedient?"
Ye Zhen's expression was indifferent: "I don't like being touched. I hope my sister can understand this in the future and not casually try to hold my hand. Our relationship is not that good."
Ye Zhen glanced at the time: "If we delay any longer, class will start soon."
Upon hearing this, Ye Zhenzhu quickly said, "Mom, my sister and I are going to school now."
Although she also wanted to teach Ye Zhen a lesson, she absolutely couldn't let Ye Zhen's studies be disrupted!
Zhao Wanru disagreed: "What classes? I'll take Ye Zhen back today and find out where she's been staying these past two nights. That way, we won't have any negative rumors circulating and embarrass our Ye family."
"No, Mom, if you want to discipline my sister, you can wait until we get home from school. We absolutely can't let her studies be disrupted right now."
Ye Zhenzhu looked a little nervous. She regretted not exaggerating Ye Zhen's words.
Seeing how nervous Han Zicha was, Ye Zhen raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "I don't really care."
"Sister, we have exams coming up soon, you can't skip class. Today is a comprehensive review session, if you miss it you'll fall behind."
Although Ye Zhenzhu didn't study diligently usually, she was still quite aware of her learning progress.
Ye Chengbei said angrily, "Pearl, why do you care about that ungrateful wretch's life or death? Her grades are just average anyway, it doesn't matter whether she goes to class or not."
Zhao Wanru thought so too and didn't feel that she was wasting Ye Zhen's time.
Ye Zhenzhu was so anxious she almost jumped up and down: "Mom, Fourth Brother, Sister has been making good progress lately. If she doesn't do well on her exams, won't that be a disgrace to the Ye family?"
Zhao Wanru thought this made sense.
She looked at Ye Zhen and said, "For the sake of Pearl, I'll let it go for now. We'll talk about it after we get home from school tonight."
Ye Zhenzhu breathed a sigh of relief.
Ye Zhen snorted coldly, turned around and ran into the school, not wanting to waste a single second.
Ye Chengbei snorted coldly: "Mom, you saw it too, Pearl is so good to that ingrate Ye Zhen, but look how she treats Pearl?"
"Fourth Brother, I don't feel wronged. I'll be going now."
Ye Zhenzhu also turned and left.
Zhao Wanru shook her head: "Although Ye Zhen is your own sister, she is no match for Zhenzhu. She grew up outside and developed these bad habits. I will discipline her properly in the future."
"Mom, you should have done this a long time ago."
Ye Chengbei hesitated for a moment: "But you have to quickly educate Ye Zhen so that I will obediently treat my leg. I don't want to give up my dream."
This is what Ye Chengbei cares about most.
Zhao Wanru, but even if you recover from your leg injury, you'll lose your guaranteed admission spot.
"My older brother said he would call the police to arrest Zhou Chi'an. If he doesn't want to go to jail and have a criminal record, he will have to give up his guaranteed admission spot, and then I can get that spot."
Ye Chengbei felt much better after mentioning this matter.
His biggest competitor right now is Zhou Chi'an.
Zhao Wanru thought for a moment and nodded: "Your older brother is right, then let your older brother handle this matter."
This spot wasn't originally meant for Zhou Chi'an.
It should be returned to her son now.
