“I… I…” Chen Yueyue’s face turned pale, and she couldn’t speak for a long time.

Guan Qin became anxious, “You’ve got to say something!”

Chen Yueyue, trembling, said, “Ye Bolin, he… he wants to cancel the wedding.”

What does canceling the wedding mean?

Both Chen Feng and Guan Qin showed an expression of disbelief.

For many years now, they had clearly witnessed Ye Bolin’s treatment towards Chen Yueyue.

He truly held her in the palm of his hand for fear of breaking her, kept her in his mouth for fear she might melt away, treating her with the utmost care and caution.

He had even proposed to Chen Yueyue several times before; each time, it was Yueyue who had declined.

The two parents, thinking the children were still young, had not rushed them.

But now.

The Chen family faced a crisis, and Chen Yueyue happened to be pregnant, so the wedding naturally became a matter of urgency!

Based on Ye Bolin’s past behavior, he certainly seemed eager to marry Yueyue at the earliest opportunity.

But now, he was actually going back on his word?

How could he dare!

“He wants to cancel the wedding?” Guan Qin’s voice became sharp, “By what right does he cancel the wedding! I’ve raised my daughter with hard work, and now I’ve given her to him, and she’s even carrying his son. He decides to cancel the wedding just like that, treating her like what? Treating our Chen family like what?!”

Chen Feng also wore a stern face, “Yueyue, why does he suddenly want to cancel the wedding?”

Chen Yueyue’s complexion grew even paler.

This reason… how could she dare to say it.

She could only say with a pitiful expression, with her head lowered, “I… I really don’t know.”

“It’s normal for a couple to have some arguments. It’s best if you communicate with him to clear up any misunderstandings. There’s already a child involved, how can the wedding be canceled? This is just nonsense!” Chen Feng said sternly.

Chen Yueyue bit her lip, “His… his attitude is quite firm, it seems he has made up his mind.”

Chen Feng and Guan Qin exchanged glances, both clueless as to why Ye Bolin would have such a change of heart.

“He wants to cancel the wedding and there’s no reason for it?” Guan Qin pressed.

Chen Yueyue’s eyes flickered, and she said softly, “Everything was fine before, but the Ye family recently found their daughter. That daughter appears to be a tough one to handle, and she said a lot in front of them.”

Chen Feng narrowed his eyes.

What did that mean?

Was it Ye Xiao who stirred things up in the middle?

“Is it that Ye Xiao?” Guan Qin asked directly, “It’s said that a younger sister-in-law can be troublesome, and it seems your little sister-in-law wants to challenge your status! Haha, she’s just someone who will inevitably marry out of the family, yet she wants to be in charge of the Ye family? Yueyue, you have no reason to fear her. You are carrying the Ye family’s bloodline in your womb, even if Ye Bolin is momentarily swayed, your father-in-law and mother-in-law have longed for a grandchild for so many years, and they will not allow him to behave willfully! I say this now, this wedding cannot be canceled! Just peacefully wait to become the bride.”

Chen Feng also nodded, “That’s right. You two have been together for such a long time, and now there’s a child involved, yet the wedding is to be canceled. If word gets out, won’t it make me a laughingstock? I’m going to find Ye Mingcheng right now.”

Chen Yueyue’s heart skipped a beat, and she quickly said, “Dad, forget it. I… I don’t want to marry anymore.”

“Nonsense!” Chen Feng said sternly, “Yueyue, I know you’ve suffered some grievances, but these matters can’t be left to whims. I think Ye Bolin is just temporarily confused. Once your Uncle Ye gives him a good scolding, he’ll come to his senses. You are with child, just wait at home for my news; I’m going to the Ye family right now. I want to see whether a daughter who will eventually marry out is more important, or the child in your womb is more important!”

“I’ll come with you,” Guan Qin also stood up.

The pair were both indignant, as if ready to settle scores with the Ye family, but Chen Yueyue only felt waves of dizziness wash over her.

She knew she should reveal the truth.

But.

She dared not.

The consequence of that truth was something she simply couldn’t bear.

Moreover, in her heart, Chen Yueyue still harbored a faint hope.

She hoped that Ye Bolin would have a change of heart and give her and their child a home.

After being together for so long, could it be that his love for her couldn’t accommodate a child?

With such an ostrich mentality, Chen Yueyue watched her parents leave without trying to stop them.

Ye Family.

“Xiaoxiao, come eat a grape,” Du Yaru gently peeled one and offered it to Ye Xiao’s lips.

Ye Xiao opened her mouth out of habit, eating the grapes while feeling slightly annoyed.

[Damn, corrupt, so corrupt, how did I get used to this.]

Seeing this, a hint of a smile appeared on Du Yaru’s lips.

She wanted Xiaoxiao to get used to it.

All the things Xiaoxiao had missed out on before, she intended to completely make up to her.

Ye Bingtong sat silently at the side, not daring to raise her eyes, afraid that if she did, the resentment in them would be revealed.

“Xiaoxiao,” Ye Mingcheng asked cheerfully, “How do you feel about your studies recently? Are they challenging?”

Studies!

Ye Bingtong’s eyes lit up!

This was her strong suit, whereas Ye Xiao was the absolute bottom of the class.

Ye Bingtong spoke softly, “Dad, it seems like Xiaoxiao is somewhat falling behind in her grades. But it’s okay, if she doesn’t understand something, she can just ask me, and I will patiently teach her.”

Ye Xiao scoffed, completely unappreciative, “Need you to teach me? I, a genius, just couldn’t be bothered before. If I start to put in the effort, first place is just minutes away.”

Her tone was very arrogant, her demeanor full of confidence.

Ye Bingtong felt a surge of joy inside.

Indeed, this Ye Xiao was still so superficial! The Ye Family could never like such a person.

With an expectant face, Ye Bingtong looked at Ye Mingcheng, waiting for him to scold her.

Unexpectedly.

Ye Mingcheng nodded in agreement, “Right, my Xiaoxiao just couldn’t be bothered to study. If she really put her mind to it, who could she possibly be worse than?”

Ye Bingtong was stunned.

This was completely different from how Ye Mingcheng used to teach her to be modest and diligent!

“I think,” Ye Bolin paused.

Eagerly shifting her gaze, Ye Bingtong looked at Ye Bolin with anticipation.

Ye Bolin said earnestly, “With Xiaoxiao’s talent, can studying alone satisfy her? Why don’t I take Xiaoxiao to our family company for a visit? If Xiaoxiao wants to be an actress, under the Ye Family banner, we have a Xingguang Film and Television company. Xiaoxiao can start practicing now, and once she graduates, she could take over the company directly. Then, whatever she wants to act in or produce, the company will invest directly.”

Ye Bingtong was incredulous.

Was her brother serious?

Xingguang Film and Television, a company worth nearly ten billion!

And he was going to hand it over to Xiaoxiao once she graduated?

Ye Bingtong’s lips quivered.

She, too, was a daughter of the Ye Family, so why didn’t she receive the same treatment!

Was it just because of a slight difference in blood relation? Was the difference really that great?

Ye Bingtong was so angry that she was scratching her head.

“Bolin!” The moment Ye Bolin finished speaking, a dissatisfied voice rang out, “That’s not right of you! Even as a joke, you shouldn’t say such preposterous things!”

Ye Bolin was taken aback, turned around, and to his surprise, it was Chen Feng and Guan Qin who walked in so openly, with neither the gatekeeper nor the servants stopping them.
