Chapter 161 Shengge Is Touched
Ye Mu En spat on the ground like a hooligan, thinking about what shameless people they were.
"You still know that I'm your elder brother? You did something wicked and still want to act like a senior? You're really something."
Ye Huai Lin's face turned red, his eyes filled with killing intent. He should have dealt with everyone from the third branch earlier, then he wouldn't have ended up in the hands of a child.
"Let me tell you another piece of news: your old flame and the little bastard are in my hands, along with the five thousand yuan you gave her. You're quite stingy, five thousand is not enough for them to go abroad."
"You, you scoundrel, I warn you not to touch them, or I will never let you go."
"Hahahaha, big brother, is this person stupid? They are in our hands, and he still wants to not let you go."
Monkey laughed loudly, and even used his foot to rub Ye Huai Lin's face against the ground. He gave Ye Huai Lin no face at all. For someone who could attack his own family, there was no need to show any mercy.
Ye Huai Lin felt that he had never suffered such a great humiliation since birth. The malice in his eyes was visible to everyone.
"Big brother, we can't keep this person. If we do, there will be future trouble."
Monkey whispered in Ye Mu En's ear. They were ordinary people now, without any constraints, and they could handle these matters.
Ye Mu En also wanted to kill Ye Huai Lin, but he still needed his father's consent, as they were brothers.
Ye Mu En didn't want to waste any more time. He had lured Ye Huai Lin to Qi City this time to seize his people and belongings. He would strip him bare first. He also needed to use this person to negotiate with Old Master Ye. Taking out the "Truth Serum" powder made by his sister, he waved away his brothers, took out a handkerchief to cover his mouth and nose, and sprinkled the powder on Ye Huai Lin's face.
Since his sister had already explained the dosage of the "Truth Serum," Ye Huai Lin did not experience any body pain. Within ten seconds, he lost consciousness.
"Tell me the list of people in your hands and where all your wealth is hidden."
Ye Huai Lin numbly confessed everything. Monkey, holding a notebook, quickly recorded it. Monkey was the most educated among the brothers, but his only drawback was talking too much.
Ye Huai Lin confessed for a full hour. Ye Mu En looked at the list in his hand with lingering fear. It turned out that there were people around his father on the list. Ye Huai Lin was truly insidious.
"Monkey, take a few brothers to Ming City and retrieve all the wealth according to the addresses."
"Yes, I guarantee the mission will be completed."
Ye Mu En took out a stack of money and coupons from his pocket and handed them to Monkey.
"Don't mistreat everyone when you're out. Also, pay attention to safety."
Monkey was unwilling to take the money and coupons. Since they followed their boss, they had never lacked money and coupons. Their food had also improved a lot, with many delicacies they had never tasted in their lives. They were already very grateful to their boss.
Ye Mu En disliked his brothers being too polite. Besides, his sister was a very good earner.
"Take it. Don't give me that. Do you think I'm short of this little bit of money and coupons? Eat well and drink well when you're out."
The brothers were very touched. For them, who were orphans or disliked by their families, their boss had given them a new lease on life. Otherwise, even if they didn't starve to death, they would have died working in the fields.
Monkey swallowed the lump in his throat and led a few brothers away.
Ye Huai Lin and the people he brought, who were lying on the ground, were taken to a temporary hiding place nearby. Ye Mu En had to rush home. The list had to be given to his father.
"You guys work hard. I'll have Old Han come over tonight to deliver supplies. Keep an eye on the people here."
"Don't worry, boss."
Ye Sheng Ge, along with her parents, put away the grain and was then sent to school. A Can also received the news and came to school to hide.
The classmates and teachers were used to Ye Sheng Ge arriving late, but He Yi Yi did not know. After asking a classmate, she looked at Ye Sheng Ge with a hint of schadenfreude. So, she was just a sickly child.
Now, when Zhang Ling saw Ye Sheng Ge, she felt that they were at odds with each other. Whenever she clashed with Ye Sheng Ge, it would never end well. But she just couldn't stand that a little orphan could live better than her and always uncontrollably wanted to trouble her.
Ye Sheng Ge flipped through her Russian textbook. She had never learned Russian in her previous life. Fortunately, the original owner had learned it very well, but she herself had never spoken it. She always felt like her tongue was tied. Clearly, Ye Sheng Ge knew multiple foreign languages in her previous life, but she never expected to encounter a Waterloo in Russian.
Even relying on her memory, she spoke haltingly. It seemed she needed to find a tutor to improve her spoken language.
Ye Sheng Ge only managed to attend the last class before school ended at noon. Chen Tang Tang happily patted her backpack. Today, she was determined to eat only a little braised pork and take the rest home for her younger brother to enjoy.
"Sheng Ge, are you still going to the state-run restaurant for lunch?"
"I'm not going. I have an appointment today."
"Okay, then I'll go eat by myself. Thank you, Sheng Ge. Because of you, I can eat at the state-run restaurant for a week."
Ye Sheng Ge knew how happy it was to be able to eat at the state-run restaurant for a week. She pinched Tang Tang's chubby face.
"Order a few more dishes. If you can't finish them, take them home. Don't try to save money for the person who is treating you."
Before Chen Tang Tang could refuse, she was interrupted by a voice from behind.
"Sheng Ge, Tang Tang, wait for me."
Ye Sheng Ge and Chen Tang Tang exchanged glances, both of them with a look of helplessness.
He Yi Yi did not expect the two to walk so fast. After catching up, she looked at Ye Sheng Ge with pity in her eyes.
"Sheng Ge, you have poor health. How can you walk so fast? I'll accompany you to and from school from now on. If there are any accidents on the way, I can help you."
Chen Tang Tang couldn't take it anymore and pushed He Yi Yi. The fat on her small face trembled with anger.
"Who are you cursing? Sheng Ge is fine, and she doesn't need you to accompany her to and from school."
He Yi Yi stumbled from the push and felt annoyed, but her face once again showed a look of grievance.
"I didn't. I just heard that Sheng Ge is not in good health, so I'm worried about her. The weather is so hot now, I'm afraid she'll faint on the way. Sheng Ge, I really mean well."
Ye Sheng Ge felt that talking to He Yi Yi was not only a waste of time but also affected her intelligence. Ye Sheng Ge walked up to He Yi Yi, reached out, and lifted her chin. She wasn't particularly good-looking, and she thought too much.
"Classmate He Yi Yi, I'll say this only once. Don't care about me, don't come near me, and don't talk to me from now on. I'm pressed for time and don't have time to play pretend with you or act. I don't care what your purpose is for approaching me, I won't give you any opportunities, so please give up, understand?"
He Yi Yi was startled by Ye Sheng Ge's expressionless face and cold eyes, but she quickly thought that they were just students, so what could she do to her? The next moment, she saw the person standing behind Ye Sheng Ge and immediately burst into tears.
"Pfft."
Ye Sheng Ge heard the laughter behind her and turned to look. She saw Zi Yi Sheng standing with his arms crossed, laughing at her. Ye Sheng Ge didn't feel embarrassed; instead, she glared at Zi Yi Sheng.
Seeing the little girl's look, Zi Yi Sheng immediately walked to her side, took her hand, and wiped it meticulously with a handkerchief.
"You touch anything dirty, aren't you afraid of getting contaminated with bacteria?"
"How did you get in?"
"I'm here to help you carry your backpack. I'm afraid it will tire you out."
Ye Sheng Ge's face turned red, whether from the sun or from Zi Yi Sheng's teasing, it was rare for her small face to show a blush.
Zi Yi Sheng took the backpack, nodded to Chen Tang Tang, and then pulled Ye Sheng Ge away. But before they could walk a few steps, He Yi Yi blocked their path.
He Yi Yi had felt a deep, cold chill when she saw Zi Yi Sheng earlier. But she didn't expect that such a person could be so gentle to a sickly child. If she could have such gentleness, it would surely be very happy.
"Brother Sheng Ge, please help me persuade Sheng Ge. She misunderstood me."
"Tsk~"
Ye Sheng Ge was utterly annoyed. This person was like a persistent plaster. Just as she was about to get angry, Zi Yi Sheng stopped her.
"Don't get angry, don't get upset. Leave it all to me."
Zi Yi Sheng raised his hand and pulled Ye Sheng Ge away. However, Ye Sheng Ge was still upset and uncomfortable, so she turned around under the pretense of waving goodbye to Chen Tang Tang and used her space to sprinkle itching powder on He Yi Yi.
Zi Yi Sheng saw the little girl's small action and felt amused. She was still a little cat with sharp claws.
Chen Tang Tang watched in adoration. She felt that Sheng Ge and her "big brother" had great chemistry. She envied the love Sheng Ge received from her family and was happy for her good friend who had found her family. Even He Yi Yi, who was being led away, didn't notice, and continued to stand in the sun, getting roasted.
Ye Sheng Ge got into the car and felt a burst of coolness. She realized that the car she was in today was not the same car as before.
"Did you change cars?"
Zi Yi Sheng took out another new handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat from the little girl's forehead.
"Cars in our country do not have air conditioning now, so I had someone import a car with heating and cooling from abroad. It will serve you exclusively from now on."
Ye Sheng Ge was a little touched. She knew how troublesome it was to import a car from abroad now, and it would be used as a handle against someone. This person was willing to take risks for fear of her getting hot. If she were not moved, she would truly be heartless.
"Will it cause you trouble?"
Being cared for by the little girl made Zi Yi Sheng feel that doing anything for her was worth it.
"It's okay. If I can't even do this, how can I protect you in the future?"
Ye Sheng Ge was teased by the whisper in her ear again. Why did this person always tease her?
"Stay away from me. Don't be so close."
Zi Yi Sheng looked at the little girl's red ears and smiled freely.
Ye Sheng Ge, annoyed by his laughter, raised her hand and slapped him a few times.
"If you laugh again, I'll get out of the car."
"Okay, okay, I won't laugh anymore."
Zi Yi Sheng held the little girl's hand and gently kneaded it. Thinking of the little girl's sharp claws extended towards her classmates just now, he couldn't help but chuckle again.
"Don't get angry for anyone in the future. If you can't control yourself, let A Can help you vent."
