Chapter 29 - 6: Outshining Her in Academics and Talent



“Mom… I, I…” Ye Bingtong wanted to say something, but she trembled, lips quivering, afraid to speak.

In the past, she had the boldness, simply because she was indulged and spoiled, believing that the Ye Family would forgive her no matter what.

But now, her certainty had faltered, and naturally, she no longer dared to be so unrestrained with her words.

“Besides school and home, you can’t go anywhere else,” Du Yaru said calmly. “I’ll have someone watch over you. If you’re found to have any contact with that Pei Yue again, then don’t claim anymore that you’re the daughter of the Ye Family. Choose Pei Yue and from now on live the life of a dropout with him, or continue being the cherished daughter of the Ye Family. The choice is yours.”

Ye Bingtong shivered.

She wanted to say they couldn’t treat her this way.

But suddenly, she realized.

They really could!

By blood, she bore none of the Ye Family’s blood.

By grace, she owed everything to the Ye Family, not the other way around!

From the beginning, she had only one bargaining chip. That chip was the love the Ye Family had for her.

But now.

How much of that chip remained?

Or, perhaps, there was none left at all.

“Have you made your decision?” Du Yaru looked at her.

Ye Bingtong’s face was slightly pale; she glanced at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao wore an indifferent expression.

But Bingtong knew, in her heart, that woman must be feeling incredibly smug right now!

She thought she had won, right?

No, everything was just beginning.

She must not let Ye Xiao be so pleased with herself!

Ye Bingtong lowered her head and said softly, “I will always be a part of the Ye Family.”

It didn’t surprise Du Yaru to hear her choice; she simply stated, “If that’s the case, then I don’t want to hear the name Pei Yue from your lips ever again.”

Ye Bingtong’s hands clenched and unclenched, then, she uttered through gritted teeth, “I understand.”

Only then did Du Yaru nod.

Ye Bingtong hung her head, filled with resentment in her heart.

Ye Xiao.

All of this was caused by Ye Xiao.

Without Ye Xiao, even without blood ties, she would always have been the treasured princess of the Ye Family.

But now, everything had changed.

Mom and Dad changed, and so had Big Brother.

If only Ye Xiao would disappear. If she were gone, everything could return to normal!

Right now, Ye Bingtong felt like a pitiable little soul abandoned by the whole world.

But that’s okay.

She would slowly reclaim what belonged to her!

Ye Bingtong’s expression changed again and again, finally settling on a docile look.

She knew, that was the look her parents loved most on her.

She would continue to play her part until one day, she regained her parents’ hearts.

She would make them realize that blood relation wasn’t important, excellence was what mattered most.

With Ye Xiao’s character and academic performance, she could not make them proud. Only she, excellent from childhood, was the true princess of the Ye Family.

Ye Xiao had already seen through Ye Bingtong’s mental calculations in the story.

Her reaction was.

A roll of her eyes.

The heroine’s plans must be to surpass her in academics and talent next.

What could she, a mere supporting character, do?

Well, she might as well look forward to it!

Ye Mingcheng and Berlin returned from their respective calls, their expressions even uglier than before.

They had learned the details of yesterday’s incident from different sources, and now, their only thought was that simply throwing Pei Yue in jail had been letting that bastard off far too easily.

And Ye Bingtong!

Pei Yue had gone mad to such an extent, and yet she was still speaking on his behalf!

It was as if she had gone crazy along with Pei Yue!

Such a big matter, and Xiaoxiao hadn’t even brought it up with the family; now the way both of them and Du Yaru were thinking was the same.

It was they who had wronged Xiaoxiao, which was why she had to endure such forbearance.

They must treat Xiaoxiao doubly well from now on.

That became the consensus among the Ye Family members.

Therefore.

Ye Bingtong just watched the Ye Family members being all warm and attentive, bustling about as if Ye Xiao was their precious darling.

Ye Bingtong knew she was out of favor now, so she could only grit her teeth and endure in silence.

She had spent over twenty years acting obedient and enduring by selling herself well, and now, she could continue to endure!

As Ye Bingtong was cultivating her ninja-like perseverance.

Chen Yueyue returned to the Chen Family with a pale face.

When Guan Qin, Chen Yueyue’s mother, saw her, she hurried over with a concerned look on her face, “Yueyue, what’s wrong? You look so unwell. Come, come, sit down quickly. You’re carrying two now; this child is extremely important. There mustn’t be any problems.”

Guan Qin looked extremely anxious.

Her father, Chen Feng, also looked over, speaking with concern, “Listen to your mother. The child in your belly is now more important than anything; nothing must go wrong at all costs.”

Father and mother, both were showing her utmost care.

Chen Yueyue, at this moment, only felt scared.

If they knew…

Ye Bolin didn’t want to marry her anymore…

Chen Yueyue couldn’t help but shiver.

“What’s wrong? Are you cold?” Guan Qin immediately asked a servant to bring over a blanket.

In the past at the Chen Family, such treatment was always reserved for Chen Yueyue’s younger brother, Chen Ming.

It was only recently, since Chen Yueyue became pregnant, with the prospect of marrying into the Ye Family, that she received such treatment.

Previously, Chen Yueyue rather enjoyed it, but now she only felt panic.

“You, you’re just a bit too nervous,” Guan Qin said. “It’s like this with every pregnant woman. Once you get married and let Berlin keep you company more, you should feel a bit better.”

“Right, Berlin is the child’s father. It’s only right for him to put in more effort,” Chen Feng said. “By the way, your wedding with Berlin is imminent. Aren’t you supposed to go try on the wedding dress? I know you’ve been looking forward to the wedding, but with your belly visibly growing, everything should be kept simple. The sooner, the better.”

“I…” Chen Yueyue’s lips turned white, and her fear heightened.

“Yueyue, are you experiencing pre-wedding jitters?” Guan Qin asked, “Here, I’ll give Berlin a call and ask him to come over.”

“Mom, wait!” Chen Yueyue tried to stop her, but Guan Qin had already dialed the phone.

The call had just connected.

Guan Qin frowned and scolded in a teaching tone, “Ye Bolin, it’s not my place to say, but you’re not acting like a qualified father. Do you know Yueyue isn’t feeling well today? Come over to the Chen Family right now and have a good talk with Yueyue! Bring some of your uncle’s favorite cigarettes and wine when you come, and there’s a new jewelry collection at ty that Yueyue and I both like. Remember to bring that along as well.”

Guan Qin spoke as though it was the most natural thing to do.

She had said such things to Ye Bolin many times before.

Every time, Ye Bolin would promptly agree, and soon, everything they wanted would be delivered.

This time would be no exception.

After Guan Qin finished speaking, she was already waiting for Ye Bolin’s anxious and fearful response.

She waited a while, but there was only silence on the other end.

Guan Qin suddenly became angry. “Ye Bolin, what’s the meaning of your silence! Yueyue is carrying your child in her belly.”

“My child?” Ye Bolin’s voice sounded somewhat profound. “It seems she still dares not say anything. Aunt Guan, I suggest you have a good talk with your precious daughter about exactly what happened.”

After finishing, Ye Bolin hung up the phone directly.

Guan Qin was stunned.

Has Ye Bolin grown a spine?

Guan Qin couldn’t help but look toward Chen Yueyue.

Chen Yueyue was already trembling with fear.

Finally, the Chen Family parents realized something was wrong.

Chen Feng said coldly, “What exactly happened!”
