Chapter 241 Didn't we just say that we're all family?
How to do?
This was Song Taotao's only thought upon hearing Ye Jin'er's words.
She could, of course, say it was just hype, but that would tarnish her image in Ye Feifan's mind as a pure, innocent girl who was clueless about money, turning her into someone who chases fame and fortune.
If she were truly sincere, she might be able to handle Ye Feifan, but she didn't know if a wealthy family like the Ye family would care about their granddaughter-in-law's past. This was clearly not a topic that could be discussed at a family banquet.
If it were just about making money through dating, that would be one thing, but she actually had a chance to marry into a wealthy family, so how could she miss it?
Ye Feifan thought that her sweetness, cuteness, gentleness, and domestic skills were the key to her standing out from other anchors.
"Young Master is joking..." Song Taotao lowered her head first, and when she raised it again, her face showed innocence and helplessness, as well as a sense of being forced, and a touch of grievance that said, "How could you rich people understand?"
"I signed a contract with the company..."
She only said this much, but her meaning was already very clear.
Upon hearing this, Ye Feifan retorted, "Why are you making things difficult for Tao Tao? Tao Tao is just a small-time streamer; she does whatever the company tells her to do."
After saying this, he began to feel like the hero who saved people from the dust and grime.
However, it's fortunate that Tao Tao is a food streamer. If she were a beauty streamer, she wouldn't be interested in those superficial beauties!
It's good that he knows how to do makeup and dress up, but as the eldest grandson of the Ye family, he definitely needs to choose a wife who is suitable for managing the household.
Unlike Ye Yifan, whose elder sister doesn't act like one at all, it's fortunate she's not married yet... otherwise, it's hard to say how much of the Ye family's assets she would still have.
Ye Feifan suddenly felt a sense of responsibility as an elder brother, and said to Ye Jin'er, "All you do is play games all day, how would you know about these complicated things?"
"Brother Feifan, you're joking. I wonder how much wealth you have?" Ye Jin'er didn't look at him, and even peeled a shrimp for Ye Sanqing. "Oh, besides the shares Grandpa gave you~"
Upon hearing this, Ye Feifan's face immediately darkened, and he said, "Is this something you can say in front of outsiders?"
His words only made things worse, as both Lu Wangqian and Song Taotao were looking at him.
And then there's Ye Wanyin, though it's not as obvious.
Song Taotao thought to herself, "Go on, just keep talking!"
Wait a minute, Ye Jin'er's tone means that his assets are definitely much more than Ye Feifan's, right?
Ye Feifan couldn't possibly show her the financial statements; in fact, it was questionable whether he could even understand them himself.
She only interacted with him based on the idea that "the eldest grandson of the Ye family can't be too bad." Now it seems that she made the wrong choice.
"Heh." Ye Feihua suddenly let out a sneer, but she didn't say anything.
Lu Wangqian also cared about this issue. For him, being with Ye Wanyin meant helping Wanwan reclaim everything that belonged to her!
Unfortunately, Ye Wanyin had no access to any business-related matters. She did have a trust fund, but she didn't mention it to Lu Wangqian because it was immediately returned to its rightful owner after Ye Sanqing returned.
"Didn't we just say that we're all family here?"
Ye Sanqing said indifferently, as if it were none of his business.
Upon hearing her words, Ye Feifan suddenly remembered the shares she received on her birthday, which instantly ignited his dissatisfaction.
"Big sister! Why does Ye Sanqing have five percent of the shares right after she came back? What contribution has she made to the Ye family?"
Is the crucial moment of today's meal finally about to arrive...?
Ye Yifan put down his chopsticks, picked up a wet wipe from the side and wiped his mouth, then began to slowly wipe his hands.
Upon seeing this, Ye Tian moved his lips, but remained silent.
Although he also had his opinions about this matter... it was good to let Ye Feifan be the one to take the lead, as he didn't want his shares to be taken away.
Ye Zheng and Wei Yunmei were clearly also concerned about this issue, and both of their gazes turned towards Ye Yifan.
"First of all, the shares are mine, and I can give them to whomever I want without having to explain to anyone."
Ignoring the rather intimidating gaze directed at her, Ye Yifan calmly surveyed the crowd and spoke.
"Secondly, I'd like to ask you, why do you also own 5% of the shares? Is it just because you're a man?"
Ye Yifan suddenly sneered as he said this.
The shareholding structure was quite complex back then, before the Ye family became the Nightfall Group, when things weren't as formalized...
Indeed, the factory originally belonged to Ye Zheng, but it suffered from a prolonged economic downturn due to economic transformation. It wasn't until Tang Jinkun married into the Ye family that she managed to revive it single-handedly.
It was originally a Jiangnan textile factory that was on the verge of bankruptcy!
Ye Zheng must believe that the factory belongs to him, and that if his daughter-in-law makes the factory successful, it will become an asset of the entire Ye family.
Tang Jinkun did indeed run the business with the simple idea that the whole family should work together.
Ye Tian continued to operate the business for a while afterward, but the shareholding structure was very chaotic. It was only after Ye Yifan took over that the ownership was gradually transferred to her. It took a lot of effort to achieve the current situation.
Ye Zheng and Ye Tian would definitely not give up their shares to them, especially the girls.
Even Ye Xi, who is known as the pampered little princess of the Ye family, has no real power or money.
Ye Jianghe's shares were obtained through her own abilities after she joined the Nightfall Group.
Ye Feihua didn't care about this, but that didn't mean she shouldn't be given it.
Ye Hai's shares were acquired when Ye Tian was running the business, and Ye Hai held a sinecure position and received a portion of them. Although Ye Hai looks honest, he is actually very shrewd and would never give them up. He is only willing to give them to his son.
Therefore, the items Ye Feifan had were gifts from Ye Zheng and Ye Hai.
Of course, Ye Jin'er, Ye Siqing, Ye Yanyu and the others also had some, but basically none of them exceeded five percent.
It's just that Ye Feifan, as the eldest grandson, was quite favored by Ye Zheng...
So Ye Sanqing's sudden appearance and the fact that he immediately received 5% was something Ye Feifan definitely couldn't accept.
"I am the eldest grandson, and the responsibilities of the Ye family all rest on my shoulders. You are not a man, and I don't expect you to understand my sense of responsibility!"
"A sense of responsibility..."
Ye Yifan sneered again, "Are you talking about the sense of responsibility of someone who has never worked for a company since graduation? If you insist on bringing up the eldest son and grandson, then let me tell you today, I, Ye Yifan, am the eldest son and grandson of the Ye family!"
Her words made Ye Zheng unable to sit still any longer.
"Yifan, a girl is a girl. Why are you competing with your brother? You'll get married someday!"
"Fight?"
Ye Yifan tilted his head and then smiled.
"That's too much trouble. I'd like to advise Feifan that it would be easier to just hand over his shares directly, which is what Yanyu did."
