“Master, when our son grows up, he will surely be a flirtatious source of calamity. Look at him. At such a young age, he can coax everyone. When he grows up, it will be unthinkable.”
“Yeah.” Ye Ling glanced at him. He was not interested. There were some people who he more or less knew at this banquet, but they did not dare to greet him. No one was so familiar with Ye Ling that he or she could greet him. Moreover, there were rumors that the Big Brother of the Ye Family was a demon-like character. He was unlike Ye Tingyun, who was able to please everyone and was easy to get along with.
There were many seats at Ye Ling’s main table that were automatically empty. No one came to disturb him. Shen Qianshu supported her chin and looked at Ye Ling. With his character of being habitually silent and a miser with words, how did he develop AG back then? This was a matter that had always made her puzzled.
If Ye Ling was acting in a television drama that was one hour per episode, as the main lead, he could be appearing for 50 minutes. But perhaps, he would only be an eye-catching background prop. He would just have a few lines.
When doing business, one had to converse. He or she could not depend on thoughts and people to do business. There had to be a starting period. If one did not have much net worth and confidence and was such a show-off during the start-up, he or she would be dragged out for a beating.
“Master, there’s a question that I have always been curious about. You have done business for such a long time. Have you been beaten?”
Ye Ling said, “Yes!”
“I knew it.”
Ye Ling said, “Those people who have beaten me are no longer around.”
Shen Qianshu said, “Oh, you don’t have to tell me the details.”
Emma took a deep breath nervously. She was wearing a pink little bubble skirt. She would be performing in a while. She stood at a dark corner. She looked at Ye Chu pulling Ye Tingyun and greeting others.
Ye Tingyun did not introduce Ye Chu as his sister this time. He brought Ye Chu and went one round. Then, he brought Ye Chu back to the main table. “Sister-in-law, please keep an eye on Ye Chu.”
“Don’t worry.”
There was no life in Ye Chu’s eyes as she looked in the direction in front. Ye Tingyun went on stage to give a speech. The annual event had started. Ye Chu’s gaze slightly shifted. She was not careful, and her gaze was in Ye Ling’s line of sight. She was so frightened that her face turned pale. Fortunately, Xiao Ju had applied makeup for her.
His line of sight was too sharp. Ye Chu was nearly defeated, but she could not show it. Both her hands felt around as she wanted to drink water to hide her own nervousness. Before she could purposely knock the cup of water over, Shen Qianshu took the cup of water and placed it in her hands.
“This is warm water. There is champagne, red wine, white wine, and beverages. What do you want to drink?” She looked after Ye Chu appropriately. Ye Chu hurriedly shook her head. “I’ll just drink water.”
She saw Emma again. Accurately speaking, Emma kept looking at her. She could feel Emma’s line of sight. She was standing in the shadow that was diagonally in front of her. Ye Chu saw Emma and could not help herself from palpitating. A layer of cold sweat appeared on her forehead.
Emma held her champagne glass up and gave a toast in Ye Chu’s direction. She could sense her superiority complex from her confidence. Ye Chu closed her eyes. Shen Qianshu held her hand gently. “Ye Chu, your hand is very cold. What’s wrong?”
“I want Brother,” Ye Chu said. Except for Ye Tingyun, whoever was by her side would not help at this moment.
Shen Qianshu and Ye Ling exchanged glances. Shen Qianshu said, “Your brother is giving a speech on the stage. Ye Ling and I are here. Don’t be afraid. They will not come over.”
She thought that Ye Chu was afraid of crowds and comforted her softly.
After Ye Tingyun finished his speech, the annual event started. The first performance was from the secretary group. Emma was dressed in a pretty little bubble skirt. She attracted a wave of applause.
The original piano performance was replaced by her playing the harmonica.
She gently blew an elegant and melodious tune with the harmonica.
Ye Tingyun furrowed his eyebrows.. Suddenly, he tightened his fists.
