Chapter 109 Can I hide here with you?
The banquet continued in a lively atmosphere.
Zhang Zhishan looked at Ye Yuanbai, who was full of vigor and talking nonstop, and felt satisfied and proud. That's right, he was the man that Zhang Zhishan had set her eyes on!
She tried to squeeze in next to Ye Yuanbai several times, but was squeezed out by some people from the company or family who wanted to take the opportunity to curry favor with the Ye family.
Zhang Zhishan angrily glared at those people, cursing in her heart that these people only dared to look down on her because they saw that her uncle's family was now in decline. It was just because Ye Chuyin, that little bitch, was now in a very different status, and they wanted to curry favor with her.
Humph! They are all villains who change their attitudes according to the situation!
Since we can't get close to him through normal means, we have to find another way.
So she turned and walked towards Old Lady Ye's room.
Not long after, Old Mrs. Ye was invited out again.
As soon as she came up, she pulled Ye's father and mother regardless of anything, and told them how difficult and hard it was for her to raise them brothers all these years, and how now that Ye's father has become rich, he doesn't need her as his mother anymore, etc.
This scene made all the guests present look at each other in amazement, and they all lamented that Mr. Ye was not only rich and capable, had a good wife and several outstanding children, but had such a stubborn, confused and hindering mother.
Ye Chuyin and Ye Peining had already noticed Zhang Zhishan's little tricks, but in order to let Ye's father see the old lady's true face clearly, they did not stop her and let Zhang Zhishan, the jumping clown, jump around at will.
At this time, Old Mrs. Ye was already in tears, her face full of sadness, and she looked as if she had lost a loved one.
Ye Chuyin listened to the old lady not only asking Ye's father to restore the marriage with the Gu family, but also constantly listing all the faults of Ye's mother, saying that she was unfilial in various ways, and that she was a vixen who raised two vixen-like daughters, etc. Her little fists were clenched tightly together, making a clucking sound.
She kept reminding herself in her heart that these were Father Ye's relatives, and she must not be impulsive and must not do anything to make Father Ye sad.
Qi Mofeng, who had been focusing his attention on her, naturally noticed her little action. He raised his hand to stop the conversation of the people around him and turned his head to call You Feng.
After a while, You Feng brought a few people to Old Lady Ye and said expressionlessly:
"Old lady, you should go back to your room and rest first. It's not suitable for you to stay here any longer." As he said that, he signaled the people around him to take Old Lady Ye away from the scene.
Seeing this, Old Lady Ye panicked and shouted while struggling:
"What are you doing? I'm Mr. Ye's mother, you can't do this to me!"
"What are you doing? You can't do this, let go..." Zhang Zhishan kept screaming, trying to interrupt the actions of several people.
“Ye Chuyin, why are you so vicious? How could you do... wuwu... wuwu…” Before she could finish her resentful words, someone covered her mouth.
The two tried frantically to break free from their restraints, however, the old lady and Zhang Zhishan's resistance was of no avail and they were soon taken away from the banquet.
Father Ye had long been on the verge of a furious rage, but as he watched the old lady being taken away by You Feng, the anger in his heart miraculously gradually subsided.
He looked at Mother Ye, his eyes full of guilt, and held Mother Ye's hand and whispered in her ear:
"Honey, I'm sorry! I've wronged you again. This time, I will never take her back again."
Mother Ye didn't say anything, she just quietly held Father Ye's hand back, giving him silent comfort.
At the same time, Ye Yuanbai and several brothers also noticed the situation here. He frowned and looked at Ye's father, mother and two sisters, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
The second, third, and fifth brothers were all ready to come over to see what was going on, but they were all blocked by Ye Yuanjin, who was sitting calmly in a wheelchair, and told them not to interfere with their brother-in-law's actions.
Ye Chuyin gave her brothers a firm look, as if telling them that everything was under her control.
Ye Chuyin watched Old Lady Ye being taken away, and the anger in her heart gradually subsided.
As she turned around, she was unexpectedly bumped into Qi Mofeng's broad arms without any preparation.
Qi Mofeng was quick to reach out and hold her in his arms.
"Yinyin, are you okay?"
After Ye Chuyin stood firm, she quickly thanked Qi Mofeng:
"I'm fine, thank you!"
Her voice was gentle. She was not only grateful for his decisive handling of Old Lady Ye's matter, but also grateful that he stood up at the critical moment and acknowledged that the child was his blood, thus saving the reputation of the Ye family.
"Yinyin, you don't have to be so polite to me."
Qi Mofeng's voice was low and gentle, like the night breeze gently blowing across the strings of a zither.
"If you really want to thank me, then agree to be temporarily engaged to me as a thank you, okay?"
Ye Chuyin was slightly startled, a hint of doubt flashed in her beautiful eyes, "Temporarily? Engaged?"
"Yeah, my family has been urging me to get married. I'm really fed up and really don't want to face all that anymore. Can I hide here with you?"
His tone was full of helplessness and pleading, making this man who was so decisive in the business world look so fragile and helpless at this moment.
His eyes revealed deep fatigue, as if he was really overwhelmed by all the pressure to get married.
Ye Chuyin looked at him in surprise, finding it hard to believe.
"Someone like you is actually being urged to get married?"
In her impression, someone like him who is so powerful in the business world should have everything under control.
"Of course! My family arranged a lot of blind dates for me, which really gave me a headache! All those women were attracted by my looks and wealth."
A bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Yinyin, you won't just watch me fall into this predicament, right?" He looked straight at Ye Chuyin with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
"Well... Would it be a bad idea for you to get engaged to me? After all, I don't have a good reputation. Your family..." She was worried that this would affect Qi Mofeng's future search for a wife.
"It's okay, as long as you agree to get engaged to me, I will take care of the rest." Qi Mofeng gently held Ye Chuyin's hand, as if he wanted to give her strength.
"But……"
"Yinyin, I have always regarded you as a friend. I thought you would treat me the same way, but now it seems that I was just being too sentimental..."
Qi Mofeng looked lost, his voice lowered, and he seemed to be immersed in deep depression. He lowered his head slightly, and the hair in front of his forehead fell down, covering his expression.
"I...I agree." It's just a temporary engagement! Just because he's so handsome and willing to come to the rescue and bear the public opinion, it's only right to help him.
"Really? That's great!"
A smile as bright as the sun instantly bloomed on Qi Mofeng's face, and his eyes were filled with joy and excitement.
