Ye Ningwan smiled slightly to herself.
It seems that Old Master Pei went to great lengths to get me to agree.
Ye Ningwan gently closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, they were filled with indifference and calmness.
She smiled, raised her head, calmly and composedly put away the check worth one hundred million, and said to Old Master Pei.
"Don't worry, Dad. I will take good care of that child once he comes to our home."
Grandpa Pei was finally satisfied. He patted Ye Ningwan's shoulder earnestly and sighed.
"Okay, you're such a good boy. Now I can rest assured."
Ye Ningwan forced a smile, took two steps back to avoid Old Master Pei's hand, and said politely.
"Dad, it's almost dawn, I'll go back and change my clothes."
Old Master Pei stopped Ye Ningwan, speaking gently yet firmly.
"It's better not to go back. It's too much trouble to go back and forth. You've been tired these past few days. Anyway, the rooms in the old house are still reserved for you. Why don't you go back to your room, take a shower, change your clothes, and have some time to rest? I'll have Butler Wang come and find you later."
Since things had already come to this, Ye Ningwan didn't have any major complaints and turned to leave.
Li Mochuan watched Ye Ningwan's departing figure, narrowing his eyes slightly, feeling that things were not so simple.
In his memory, Ye Ningwan was not someone who was easily persuaded.
Li Mochuan couldn't help but wonder if Ye Ningwan was up to something again.
"Mr. Li."
Li Mochuan was lost in thought when Old Master Pei called his name.
Li Mochuan snapped out of his daze.
"Is there anything else you need, sir?"
Grandpa Pei smiled gently.
“I still have something to say to you. Anyway, it’s already dawn, let’s go to the tea room.”
Li Mochuan did not refuse.
...
Ye Ningwan returned to the room where she and Pei Fengzhi had previously been newlyweds.
A maid was tidying up the room, which was obviously because it had been empty and no one had come to clean it before.
When the maid saw Ye Ningwan walk in, she hurriedly straightened up and called out to Ye Ningwan.
"Ninth Madam."
Ye Ningwan ignored her, only glancing indifferently at the half-changed blankets.
The maid hurriedly explained.
“You and Ninth Master moved out before, and the old man doesn’t allow anyone to come over casually, so we haven’t been able to tidy up. Please don’t be angry, I’ll tidy up right away.”
Ye Ningwan waved to the maid and said casually.
"Go outside after you change the blankets, I want to be alone."
After saying that, Ye Ningwan went into the bathroom.
When Ye Ningwan came out again, she found that there was still someone standing in the room.
As she dried her hair, she looked up at the man and asked with some displeasure.
Why are you still here? Didn't I tell you to leave?
As soon as Ye Ningwan finished speaking, the person standing in the bedroom turned around, curled up the corners of his lips with a cold smile, and said in an annoyed tone.
"Ye Ningwan, who do you think you are, daring to talk to me like that?!"
Ye Ningwan then realized that this person was actually Miss Pei's daughter, Fang Yuetang.
She raised an eyebrow and spoke to Fang Yuetang.
"Why are you still here? Haven't you and your mother left yet?"
Fang Yuetang was speechless when Ye Ningwan asked her a question.
Ye Ningwan's attitude and tone were so ordinary, but what she said made Fang Yuetang extremely embarrassed and awkward, as if she were just a guest in the Pei family who had trespassed on the host's property, and Ye Ningwan, as the host, did not hold a grudge against her, a rude guest, but instead generously forgave her.
No matter how you look at it, Fang Yuetang has lost all face and dignity, and she was also ridiculed by Ye Ningwan both openly and subtly. She was so angry that her face almost twisted.
Little did anyone know, Ye Ningwan didn't care at all whether Fang Yuetang was angry or not; in fact, she wanted to make her even angrier.
"Why aren't you leaving yet? Do I have to pay you?"
Fang Yuetang took a step forward, her back teeth grinding together, glaring angrily at Ye Ningwan, her eyes filled with a desire to devour her whole.
"Ye Ningwan!"
Fang Yuetang took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.
She knew it wasn't a good time to directly confront Ye Ningwan. If she acted impulsively, she would easily be suppressed by Ye Ningwan, which would only make her look more humiliated.
After calming down, Fang Yuetang finally remembered what she had come here for.
She almost got her way swayed by that bitch Ye Ningwan just now.
Fang Yuetang rolled her eyes and arrogantly gave Ye Ningwan a command.
"Ye Ningwan, it's none of your business whether I leave or where I go!"
Fang Yuetang took a few steps forward, her face almost touching Ye Ningwan's, and said, word by word.
"I must warn you, be aware of your place. You are now Pei Fengzhi's wife! Now that you're married, stay home and be a good wife and mother, mind your own business, and don't be greedy and try to have your cake and eat it too. Don't be so promiscuous and annoying, or you might end up being drowned in a pig cage and lose your life!"
Upon hearing Fang Yuetang's last sentence, Ye Ningwan couldn't help but sneer, giving her a mocking glance before coldly retorting.
"Hey, are you from the Qing Dynasty? Still talking about drowning in a pig cage? Don't you know we've already reformed and opened up to the world?"
Ye Ningwan pushed Fang Yuetang away, threw the towel she was using to dry her hair aside, sat on the edge of the bed, picked up the hairdryer and started drying her hair, ignoring Fang Yuetang.
Fang Yuetang was left standing to the side, her face ashen and her expression twisted. She clenched her fists, gritted her teeth, and rushed forward, yanking out the plug of Ye Ningwan's hairdryer.
