Chapter 9 I'm severing ties with my family, why are you in such a hurry?
Ye Chengdong held the severance agreement, his hand trembling slightly, and looked at Ye Zhen in disbelief.
She actually wants to sever ties with her family?
Is she crazy?
The Ye family is rich and powerful. No fool would give up such a good life and leave the Ye family, right?
Or is Ye Zhen playing hard to get?
Ye Zhen stood under the lights, her hair tied in a neat ponytail, her soft features carrying a hint of coldness and hardness.
She said, "That's my answer."
A hint of surprise flashed in Ye Zhenzhu's eyes. It was good that the bitch was gone; there was no one left to compete with her for anything.
At that moment, the system's voice appeared in Ye Zhenzhu's mind: "If she leaves, what will happen to your scientific research competition? Are you going to replicate the life of a poor wretch?"
Ye Zhenzhu shuddered. Yes, she couldn't let Ye Zhen leave now.
Ye Chengdong stood up and looked at Ye Zhen: "Once you step out of this door, never come back!"
Ye Zhen didn't even turn her head; she had no intention of coming back.
Ye Zhenzhu was very anxious: "Big brother, if you just send my sister away like this, what will happen if Mom and Dad find out?"
"Ye Zhen is deliberately using this to threaten us, right, brother?"
Ye Chengbei felt that Ye Zhen would never give up the comfortable life of the Ye family.
Ye Chengdong nodded: "Let her go. She'll know to come back after she's suffered."
Ye Zhenzhu was extremely anxious, what should she do?
At this moment, Ye Chengdong received a call from Butler He.
The voice on the other end of the phone carried a hint of arrogance: "Our young master said he wouldn't break off the engagement, and he's magnanimous enough not to hold this against us, but he hopes to spend more time cultivating his relationship with his fiancée."
Ye Chengdong hung up the phone, his face grim: "Someone, stop Ye Zhen."
"Brother, why are you still keeping her here?"
Ye Chengbei didn't understand.
Ye Chengdong said with some helplessness, "The He family is not pursuing Ye Zhen's responsibility anymore, so for the sake of the marriage agreement between the two families, we cannot let Ye Zhen leave for the time being."
Although he also felt that Ye Zhenzhu was more suitable than Ye Zhen.
Lady Kehe disliked Ye Zhenzhu because she wasn't her biological daughter, and there was nothing that could be done about it.
Ye Zhenzhu almost gritted her teeth to pieces upon hearing these words, but on the surface she still pretended to be very sensible, after all, she still had to stay in the Ye family.
She looked up and said, "Big brother, let's hurry up and bring my sister back."
The group chased after her and saw Ye Zhen being stopped by the servants.
Ye Zhen looked at them warily: "What else do you want?"
Weren't these people quite happy when she took out the severance agreement?
You've changed your mind so quickly?
"No matter what, you're still somewhat useful. Second Young Master He likes you quite a bit and doesn't agree to cancel the engagement. So you have to win his favor and spend more time with him to cultivate your relationship. That's the most important thing for you right now."
Ye Chengdong's tone was commanding. He looked down on Ye Zhen from the bottom of his heart, but since Ye Zhen was his biological daughter, he had no choice.
Ye Zhen really wanted to open these people's brains and see what kind of dregs were inside.
She coldly refused: "If you're out of your mind, go to the hospital. I don't have time to play these games with you!"
Her most important thing right now is clearly the college entrance exam.
What a load of bullshit marriage contract!
Ye Chengdong, enraged and embarrassed, said, "You want to go and seek refuge with your friend, Sun Miaomiao, right?"
Ye Zhen's expression changed slightly: "What do you want to do?"
"If you behave well, I can do nothing. But if you don't, I can't guarantee anything."
Ye Chengdong's eyes turned cunning and ruthless. Knowing her elder brother as she did, she knew this was no joke.
If she doesn't obey, Ye Chengdong only needs to make one phone call to make Sister Miaomiao lose her job and make her unable to stay here.
How despicable!
Ye Zhenzhu walked over and said insincerely, "Sister, stop making a fuss. Brother Baizhou just messaged me saying he won't hold you responsible. Let's get along like before, okay?"
Ye Zhen didn't move or answer.
Ye Chengbei said smugly, "By the way, Ye Zhen, you'd better obediently agree to participate in the scientific research competition, or I'll make sure your hometown's orphanage goes out of business."
A dark glint flashed in Ye Zhen's eyes, and anger gathered in her chest.
But now she has no power to resist, nor can she protect Sister Miaomiao and the others.
Indeed, the power of discourse lies in the hands of the strong.
The weak have no right to say no.
She is still too weak, which is why she is being bullied and threatened by the Ye family.
She must become stronger in order to escape the Ye family and protect Sister Miaomiao and the others.
Ye Zhen suppressed her anger and turned back to the hall.
"Big brother, fourth brother, I'll go and try to persuade my sister first."
After Ye Zhenzhu finished speaking, she chased after him.
Ye Chengdong stood there and breathed a sigh of relief.
Ye Chengbei felt a little uncomfortable: "Brother, Ye Zhen actually compromised for those unrelated people from the orphanage? Does Ye Zhen think we are less important than those outsiders?"
Ye Chengdong frowned immediately; he felt somewhat uncomfortable.
He pursed his lips and said, "Ye Zhen has probably been brainwashed by those poor people. When she grows up, she will know how important the power and status of the Ye family are."
Ultimately, she's the younger sister who grew up outside the village; she's not very promising, and her only value in the future will be through marriage.
——
The small room upstairs.
Ye Zhen sat at the narrow desk, but she was not in a good mood. She had thought that she could leave the Ye family for good today.
Ye Chengbei pushed the door open and said, "Hey, I have a basketball game tomorrow. Remember to come and prepare in advance, so as not to affect my chances of winning first place."
Upon hearing this, Ye Zhen couldn't help but scoff.
How dare this guy think she'd still fawn over him like before?
Ye Zhen's face was blatantly sarcastic, making Ye Chengbei lose face instantly.
He retorted angrily, "I'm giving you a chance now, don't be ungrateful! Don't forget how you shamelessly begged to come to our basketball team as a life assistant!"
A mocking glint flashed in Ye Zhen's eyes.
Yes, she used to really want to get along well with her brothers.
But now, she won't do anything foolish.
"I won't go there again."
Ye Zhen lowered her head and continued reading, not wanting to pay him any attention.
At this moment, Ye Zhenzhu brought over a pile of books: "Sister, these are the books that the teacher recently gave us. You've missed too much, and you need to spend some time catching up."
Ye Zhen glanced at the books on scientific research competitions in front of her.
She sneered, "But my room is too small, making it impossible for me to concentrate on preparing for the research competition. My sister's room, on the other hand, seems quite suitable."
Since I'm unhappy, then nobody should have an easy time either!
Ye Zhen was secretly delighted to see Ye Zhenzhu's reluctant expression.
She then added fuel to the fire: "Little sister, didn't you keep telling me to work hard to prepare for the research competition? You're not even willing to put in this much effort? It seems you weren't sincere."
"No way! Pearl's room is where she's lived since she was little. How dare you try to take it from her?"
Ye Chengbei was the first to disagree.
Adding to his dislike for Ye Zhen, who had dared to refuse him earlier, he became even more annoyed with her.
"Really? Then I won't be able to concentrate on the competition in the small room, and I won't be able to focus at all. I'll probably end up last again. What's the point of me participating then?"
Ye Zhen looked at Ye Zhenzhu with a smile in her eyes.
Ye Zhenzhu, you want to plagiarize my work? Then you'll have to pay a price.
