Chapter: 2029
Ye Longmin saw that Ye Chen wasn't accepting her advice and immediately opened his mouth to say, "Chen'er! You need to understand that the Ye family has a lot of influence in the country's aristocracy. Any woman who wants to marry into our family must have a background matching ours! Otherwise, she'll be dragging down our Ye family and embarrassing us! The Ye family's reputation will also be ruined by you or that Xiu Ran!"
Ye Chen replied coldly, "Sorry, I may be a member of the Ye family, but I'm not someone you can control or manipulate. My marriage is my own business, and no one has the right to interfere, including you!"
"You're furious, Ye Longmin! You immediately slammed your fist on the table and stood up, shouting at Ye Chen: "What do you think I'm talking to you for? Is it just a casual chat?""
"How?" Ye Chen asked coldly. "Do you still want to force me to get divorced?"
Ye Longmin scolded: "You're a member of the Ye family! You must follow the arrangements made by the Ye family, and what's more, don't forget that the Emperor Hao Group and that 10 billion yuan are yours for the taking! If you don't listen, the Ye family can lift you up or crush you down!"
Ye Chen also became furious and spoke coldly: "Don't bring up the Emperor Hao Group and that 10 billion yuan here! The reason why our Ye family was able to rise rapidly and stand at the pinnacle of the nation was because my father worked hard and made wise decisions. If we're talking about inheritance, my father at least had the right to inherit one-quarter of the Ye family's assets. Even if it were 10 million yuan, it would be mine!"
When he said this, Ye Chen's tone became even more severe, scolding: "My father did so much for the Ye family, but how do you repay him? You forced our whole family out of Yanjing and ultimately caused my parents' tragic deaths. I still haven't settled the account with you yet!"
Ye Chen spoke coldly: "Just because I'm Ye Chen! Just because my father is Ye Longmin!"
Ye Longmin scolded: "Your father has been dead for many years, and you still want to inherit the Ye family's assets?! I'm telling you, you're not qualified!"
Ye Chen looked at Ye Longmin and coldly laughed: "My father once worked tirelessly for the Ye family, and in my eyes, he was like a pillar of the family. Even if I were to treat him as the head of the family, it would be more than enough! As for you, you're just like a daughter who has left her family - once you're married off, you're no longer part of this family! What right do you have to lecture me in front of me?"
The phrase "a daughter who has left her family is like water that has been poured out" is the most hated thing Ye Longmin has ever heard.
Even though she was already married and had a good home, she always kept an eye on the Ye family's assets.
Now that she and her husband are separated, and their relationship has reached a breaking point, she has pinned all her hopes on the Ye family's assets!
However, the older members of the Ye family, including Ye Longkang, Ye Longyun, and Ye Longfeng, have always looked down upon Ye Longmin, often reminding her not to covet the Ye family's assets because she is no longer part of the family.
Ye Longmin naturally felt extremely resistant!
She thought that her husband's family was unreliable, and the only thing she could rely on was her grandfather's favor!
So, regardless of how difficult it may be, she will do everything in her power to curry favor with her grandfather and get him to give her a portion of his inheritance before he passes away, which would ensure her future security.
But she didn't expect that this little Ye Cian, who had been away from home for nearly 20 years, would dare to say such things in front of her. It's as if he just stepped on her tail, making her furious all at once!
So she glared at Ye Cian with clenched teeth and scolded him, saying, "Ye Cian! Listen carefully! If you're wise enough to follow the Ye family's orders, the Ye family will naturally won't treat you badly and let you live a carefree life for the rest of your days!"
Just then, she changed her tone and raised her voice again, her eyes flashing with threat: "But if you're not wise enough! Then I'll tell you, the Ye family can pick you up or throw you down! When that time comes, the Emperor Group and those 100 billion will all be gone from you! You'll ultimately end up being beaten back to your original form, becoming that smelly old thing that everyone looks down on, including your in-laws!"
Emotionally out of control, Ye Changmin's voice was even trembling with a hint of screeching.
The entire Sky Garden was reverberating with her frantic sounds.
Chen Zekai quickly had all the service staff withdraw and himself stepped outside the Sky Garden banquet hall.
At this moment, anyone who might slight Ye Changmin would have the potential to further lose control of her emotions.
Ye Cian saw that Ye Changmin's expression had already become intensely resentful, yet he played it coolly, smiled, and asked her, "That's pretty ruthless. Then I'd like to ask, if I'm wise enough, what orders does the Ye family have for me?" JrNovels.com
