Chapter 239 This world is just a giant... newbie station.
As expected, Ye Wanyin lived up to everyone's expectations, and her eyes immediately filled with tears as well.
"Sister, what are you saying? Brother Lu isn't an outsider! We're getting married!"
As she spoke, as if to encourage him, she grasped Lu Wangqian's hand.
"Not only that, who else...?"
Ye Sanqing smiled at her.
Ye Wanyin knew, of course, that she was referring to herself, but could she respond to that?
"Ah? I see... But if I'm not the only outsider, why target me?"
Ye Wanyin didn't respond, but someone else did, their tone full of innocence.
"Tao Tao, you're overthinking it. Nobody meant anything by it against you," Ye Feifan casually coaxed her.
He only likes one type of woman; women are better when they're delicate and gentle!
Moreover, although he was mediocre, he still had some shares and money. While this level of assets wouldn't allow him to date celebrities or real rich girls casually, it wouldn't stop vain people from throwing themselves at him.
Upon hearing this, Song Taotao immediately showed a smile tinged with tears, "Brother cares about me so much!"
Ye Sanqing: Wow, this acting is much better than Ye Wanyin's! Look at how well she changes her emotions!
Ye Wanyin didn't originally intend to target her future cousin-in-law, but she couldn't tolerate being constantly targeted.
She even suspected that the other party knew perfectly well that she wasn't in a good position in the family, so they were deliberately targeting her to curry favor with others.
“Cousin, I really have to remind you, she…” Ye Wanyin said, giving Song Taotao a suspicious look, as if assessing her chances of becoming a sister-in-law. “If she doesn’t even know the proper etiquette for addressing people, Grandpa will definitely be unhappy later.”
Ye Wanyin deliberately brought up Ye Zheng, who hadn't yet taken his seat, and was pleased to see a hint of fear on his face.
"Hahaha!" Suddenly someone clapped. "Ye Wanyin, you've met your match!"
This person had been watching the show with great interest, but suddenly spoke up, and everyone looked at her.
Ye Feihua spread her hands and said, "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong? Those who know, know. This world is just a giant... newbie station."
Ye Jin'er thought to herself, "It's been a long time. My cousin is still as ruthless as ever. Even I have to be respectful of her."
The second half of that statement is obvious to everyone: "It's either a large item or a small item..."
Ye Wanyin was now at a loss for words. She knew her cousin well; she would occasionally make a sarcastic remark, but if she tried to retaliate, the other woman would slip away unnoticed, making it an ineffective tactic.
"Ye Feihua, what are you doing?"
Ye Feifan frowned.
He always said that women should be delicate and gentle! Of all the sisters in the Ye family, apart from Ye Wanyin, they are all terrifying.
Ye Yifan goes without saying, but his younger sister Ye Feihua was rebellious from a young age, never listening to anyone, and her rebellious spirit was stronger than anyone else's.
He thought Ye Wanyin was normal, but it turns out she wasn't even from their family!?
And then Ye Sanqing showed up, looking like he'd start a fight at the drop of a hat, making him even more ruthless!
"Brother Feifan, is there something you need?"
Ye Feihua didn't take him seriously at all. "No one says anything when you mess around, and it's one thing if you want to bring someone home, but this is a dinner table! If you insist on ruining everyone's appetite, believe me, I'll throw you out in a bit?"
Ye Sanqing suddenly said, "I can help."
Ye Feihua smiled at her and said, "I didn't say hello last time because I was working and couldn't come back. It's not that I don't care about you."
Ye Sanqing vaguely remembered that she seemed to have sent a message afterward, but it was only one message. She thought the other party was just being polite, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
Ye Feihua is a freelance photographer who is always on the road. His appearance is probably the kind that Ye Zheng would want to punch: he has a buzz cut and a bunch of things hanging around his ears.
However, Ye Feifan deliberately didn't go, and when he heard her bringing up old grievances, he inexplicably broke out in a cold sweat.
He didn't know Ye Sanqing had this kind of personality back then!
Ye Wanyin came to him crying again, and he softened for a moment, saying that he supported Ye Wanyin and would not go.
And look what happened to it now!
Ye Sanqing observed the others and saw that his second aunt was frowning, seemingly dissatisfied with all of them, but her expression also showed that she didn't care.
Second Uncle Ye Hai seemed a little anxious, but he didn't dare to make a sound. He wanted to pretend he hadn't heard, but he had nowhere to hide.
Ye Jianghe was looking at his tablet with a serious expression. Was he still working?
Ye Xi was rapidly tapping her phone screen with her long, manicured nails, looking quite busy.
Ye Tian sat there pretending to be serious, but he was probably also holding back his anger. If he didn't say anything, they would lose face; if he did, they would lose even more face if they were retaliated against.
Meanwhile, Lu Wangqian was also scrutinizing them.
Back then, at least the person he was arranged to marry was Ye Yifan. If he had been assigned Ye Feihua instead, he wouldn't even know if he was gay.
Alas, it's a pity that Ye Wanyin was too young back then... otherwise, she wouldn't have had to go through such a long and complicated process.
As Lu Wangqian thought about it, he felt that he had finally found love after going through many twists and turns, and he inexplicably became proud of himself again.
Lu Wangqian was completely unaware of the Ye family's structure, which was different from his own Lu family, a closely connected clan, hence his idea.
In reality, Ye Hai's family has virtually no connection to business. Even if there were a crisis that required a marriage alliance, he would definitely be the first to run away.
Just as Ye Sanqing finished telling Ye Feihua that it was alright, Ye Zheng and Wei Yunmei came in together.
Everyone immediately stood up in silence.
As is customary, Ye Zheng would definitely give a long speech before we could start eating...
"Everyone sit down."
Ye Zheng glanced at them, feeling somewhat dissatisfied.
He wanted to see a house full of children and grandchildren, but now his children and grandchildren are either single or widowed...
His eldest grandson is truly accomplished, and Wanwan is indeed his favorite granddaughter!
"Today I saw two people bring their partners home, that's great! I hope to see you two soon, that you'll have children and grow up!"
Ye Zheng's speech was also incoherent; he clearly wanted to express the concern of an elder, but his intonation and rhythm revealed a leader's air.
But he had never actually been a leader... so the effect was even more amazing.
Upon hearing this, Ye Wanyin immediately took Lu Wangqian's arm shyly, smiling very dignifiedly.
Today she's going to show that woman and Ye Sanqing what a true lady of a prominent family looks like!
However, Ye Sanqing didn't look at her at all; instead, he was focused on the dishes that were being served.
She saw a huge pile of shrimp, crabs, shellfish, and other seafood, as well as eel with cured pork, and soft-shelled turtle with rock sugar. There were already almost ten different cold dishes.
The hot dishes were still being served. Ye Sanqing saw a large yellow fish, braised pork, crab... and rice cakes? Ribbonfish, pork hock, lobster balls, squid balls, stewed chicken... and two soups that he couldn't tell what they were for the time being.
Although Yecheng has plenty of seafood, this was the first time Ye Sanqing had ever seen such a complete feast. She didn't mind the hassle of eating seafood.
Sigh, I really should have stayed here for two days to eat and drink before going back.
