"He Tian, what did you say?" Ye Chen asked through gritted teeth.
"Brother, Brother Wenyuan's set of flat floors is really good!" He Tiantian successfully gained 1 point of anger and was very happy.
She also deliberately pretended not to understand Ye Chen's angry expression, and continued to say with envy, "It's a full 1,780 square meters, and there are three toilets alone."
"Su Wenyuan's house is indeed very nice, but it belongs to others and has nothing to do with us!" Ye Chen took a deep breath and barely suppressed his anger.
In the bottom of my heart, there was a voice desperately trying to comfort me: Don't be angry, don't get angry with Ye Tian, he is my mother's nephew, he is my cousin, dear!
"Why doesn't it matter? Brother, you are Brother Wenyuan's good brother." He Tiantian's eyes widened and she spoke very seriously.
Ye Chen: ...He really doesn't want to be angry, and he doesn't want to argue with He Tian, but this naughty kid is so annoying.
"Su Wenyuan and I are indeed friends, but the relationship between us is just a pure friendship without any interests!" Ye Chen almost said this through gritted teeth.
However, He Tiantian curled her lips and said with a hint of disdain: "Brother, what is pure and impure? Since we are good brothers and his family is so rich, I should take care of you a little!"
Ye Chen clenched his cheeks, and his mood at the moment was only one step away from anger.
And soon, his good cousin helped him complete this step.
When Ye Chen was trying his best to suppress his anger, he heard "He Tian" say thiefly: "Brother, I know, you are thin-skinned and you are embarrassed to take advantage of others!"
"It doesn't matter, I'm thick-skinned. I'll go find Brother Wenyuan."
Before He Tiantian could finish speaking, two voices sounded in her ears and deep in her consciousness:
"no!"
"Ding! The hero's anger value is 5!"
He Tiantian: ...Oh, the harvest this time is quite big.
And it can be seen from this that Ye Chen really values his friendship with Su Wenyuan.
If someone tried to sabotage it, Ye Chen would feel as angry as if he had wet his pants after being teased.
"Why can't it work? Brother, the conditions of our family are indeed not very good. And Su Wenyuan's family does not lack such a house." He Tiantian didn't think it was enough and continued to stimulate Ye Chen.
"He Tian! I won't do it if I say no!" Ye Chen really couldn't help it, and he squirted hard at He Tiantian!
"Why don't you listen? I said that Su Wenyuan and I are just friends. Our friendship is pure and simple and must not be mixed with any interests!"
"Also, the Su family's money is their own business. What does it have to do with us?"
"If you want to live in a big house and live a good life, work hard on your own. Why are you always thinking about other people's homes?"
Ye Chen was furious. What he said was really just a matter of fact.
But, "He Tian"'s identity is somewhat embarrassing in the Ye family.
Ye Chen's last sentence can easily make people think of He Tian or Ye Mu.
Sure enough, He Tiantian's playful smile disappeared in an instant, and turned into a humiliated and deeply shocked look: "Brother, it turns out that you, you have always thought like this?"
"...Yes, you are right, I really shouldn't worry about other people's homes!"
With that said, He Tiantian turned around and went to the kitchen.
Ye Chen was so angry that he didn't react for a moment.
Of course, it's also possible that he really wasn't "pointing out", so he didn't think about it at all, and naturally he didn't realize that what he said could easily be misunderstood.
However, his instinct told Ye Chen that things were about to go bad!
He hurriedly followed him, and happened to hear "He Tian" angrily saying to Ye Mu who was cooking: "Gu, I, I'd better go!"
"My brother is right. If you want a good life, you should work hard. You can't, you can't always rely on others!"
Ye Chen:... Damn it, I'm just talking about the matter. I don't want my best cousin to embarrass himself in front of Wen Yuan, but I have never disliked him.
Ye Chen really didn't like He Tian, a cheap cousin who was lazy and had bad habits.
However, for the sake of his mother, the relationship between relatives, and the two of them living under the same roof for two or three years, Ye Chen already regarded He Tian as a family member deep in his heart.
It is precisely because Ye Chen regards He Tian as one of his family members that he speaks directly instead of being cautious and thinking about things here and there.
"Xiaotian, what are you talking about? What about other people's homes? Your aunt's home is your home!" Mother Ye was panicking and hurriedly comforted her.
She turned off the fire, turned around, and looked directly at Ye Chen.
A pair of eyes very similar to Ye Chen's, with a hint of anger and sadness.
Mother Ye knew that it would definitely not be appropriate for her to bring her natal nephew into her home.
After all, in the traditional Chinese concept, it is natural for a married daughter to have relatives from her husband's family come to the house, but it is against the rules for relatives from her mother's family to come to the house.
In the past two or three years, Ye's mother left her nephew at home, and the relatives and neighbors of the Ye family gossiped a lot.
Mother Ye didn't care what other people thought of this matter. She just wanted to be told a few words and they could live a good life behind closed doors.
However, Mother Ye never expected that while outsiders were just pointing fingers behind her back, her own son would actually jump out and express his opposition.
"Xiaochen, you, what did you say to your brother?"
"Yes, I know it was wrong for Xiaotian to secretly drive your classmate's car out. But he already knew it was wrong. Why are you still refusing to let him go?"
"Xiaochen, you are the elder brother, you have to support your younger brother. How can you drive him out?"
"Your grandparents and uncle are gone. If you drive Xiaotian out, where do you want him to go?"
"Xiaochen, when you were little, your uncle and your grandpa loved you so much. How could you be so heartless? Don't show any respect for relatives?"
Ye Chen: ...Mom, I, I almost died unjustly, okay?
I have long forgotten about He Tian stealing a luxury car and going out!
The reason why I was angry was because he was thinking about Su Wenyuan’s house again!
Also, I was indeed angry, but I didn’t express my anger.
"Girl, don't scold my cousin. My cousin is right. I am thick-skinned, shameless, and do not know how to advance or retreat. Don't you still know what your identity is?"
He Tiantian looked like a disgusting green tea and white lotus, with pity written all over her face. Her words sounded like she was sensible and introspective, but in fact she was still targeting Ye Chen.
"Blame me, blame me, blame me for forgetting to take advantage of my aunt and uncle's love for me!"
"But, aunt, I have been here for the past two or three years, and I have really regarded this place as my own home!"
"me"
As he spoke, tears rolled down from the corners of He Tiantian's eyes.
Ye Chen:... Damn it, Ye Tian, you’ve had enough.
I don't want you to play like this. In front of me, you come to xx to pass on that trick.
Our family is just an ordinary common man, not a royal palace or a deep house, so it is necessary to stage a palace fight or a house fight.
"Girl, don't blame me. In the end, it's me who doesn't live up to expectations!"
He Tiantian knows how to exercise discretion.
Whether she is acting or digging holes, her purpose is to collect the male protagonist's anger points, not to actually turn against the male protagonist.
So, with the previous relationship pretty much laid out, He Tiantian changed the topic and started to help Ye Chen, "Gu, brother didn't chase me away either."
"I know, he said that he should work hard and not worry about other people. He wanted to persuade me to learn well, but he didn't really dislike me."
"But if brother doesn't chase me away, I have to be self-aware. I, I really shouldn't stay here!"
"Auntie, please take care of yourself and uncle, I'm leaving!"
After saying that, He Tiantian turned around and ran away, not giving Ye Chen and her son any time to react.
Bang!
The old security door made a loud noise.
Mother Ye was so shocked that she came back to her senses. She quickly shouted, "Old Ye! Old Ye!"
Father Ye was on the phone in the room. He had just discussed it with his wife, and both husband and wife felt that He Tian might not really be suitable to stay at the car wash.
Father Ye has been in business for many years and has some connections.
He then said: "Well, let me look for old connections again and see if I can find a serious job for Tiantian!"
Ye Mu nodded in agreement.
Just like that, Ye's mother went out to cook, while Ye's father stayed in the bedroom and looked through the address book.
Father Ye made several calls in succession and finally got a friend who was a manager at the club to relax, saying that Father Ye could take the person for an interview and if the conditions were good, he would keep the person.
Father Ye hung up the phone with great gratitude.
Before he could take a breath and run to report the good news to his wife, he heard Ye Mu calling him at the top of her lungs.
Father Ye was shocked. Did something happen at home again?
He hurriedly ran out of the bedroom, shouting as he ran: "It's coming, it's coming! Xiao He, what's wrong?"
When Ye's mother saw her husband, all the grievances and anger in her heart burst out.
She pursed her lips, tears glistening in her eyes, and pointed at Ye Chen: "What's wrong? Ask your good son! Look at what he has done."
Father Ye was obviously stunned for a moment, my son?
It shouldn’t be!
In this family, He Tian is usually the one who gets into trouble, while Ye Chen has been sensible and obedient since he was a child, and he has become very independent when he grows up.
Especially after Ye Chen graduated from college, Ye's father felt more and more that his son was an adult, able to solve problems for the family and protect him from the wind and rain!
"Dad, Mom, don't talk about this now, let's go out and find Xiaotian first!"
When Ye Chen saw his mother actually crying, he suddenly realized that his attitude towards He Tian was indeed not very good.
He may not like He Tian, but he cannot ignore his mother's feelings.
Alas, just like what my mother said, He Tian is really the only one left in the old He family.
Ye Chen is two years older than He Tian. When He Tian's father was alive, Ye Chen already had memories.
He remembered very clearly that when he was a child, his uncle really loved him.
Not to mention grandpa... Although Ye Chen did not covet his grandpa's inheritance, he did receive gifts from the old man of the He family.
Originally, these things should be passed on to He Tian, the serious heir of the He family.
It's just that when grandpa left, He Tian was out of town with his mother, and the He family couldn't contact him at all.
Later, when He Tian came to the door, Ye's mother and Ye Chen told He Tian in detail what happened before Mr. He's death.
They also said that they were willing to give the "family heirloom" that Mr. He passed down to Ye Chen to He Tian.
After He Tian asked what the "family heirloom" was, he looked at it with his own eyes, and then said sincerely: "Auntie, brother, since grandpa gave it to you, it will belong to you from now on!"
"Besides, when I paid my respects to my grandfather and carried him to the funeral, he should inherit my grandfather's inheritance!"
Ye Chen could clearly see that the reason why He Tian didn't want it was not as good as what he said.
He Tian simply didn't pay attention to it.
However, no matter what He Tian thought in his heart, he did not compete with the Ye family for the so-called "inheritance". He also affirmed the Ye family's efforts. Ye's father and Ye Chen felt very comfortable.
Ye Chen had secretly learned about the "family heirloom" that He Tian looked down on, and was planning to use it as capital to start a business.
Once the business started and Ye Chen made a fortune from the business, he had to remember that he still owed the He family a favor.
For this favor, Ye Chen also wanted to treat He Tian as his biological brother.
"Xiaotian did misunderstand what happened today, but I also said something inappropriate."
Ye Chen first made a self-examination, and then said: "However, it's useless to talk about this now! Let's go find Xiaotian first, and when we find him, I, I will apologize to him properly!"
"Yes! Yes! It's important to find someone!" Ye's father still didn't know what happened. At most, he learned through the words of his wife and children that He Tiannao ran away from home.
Don’t rush to ask about the reason or anything, it’s important to find someone.
He Tian is not Ye Chen. This child is always playful and has some bad habits.
If he ran out in anger and caused any trouble, the old Ye family really couldn't afford it.
"Hmph! When I get Xiaotian back, I will settle the score with you again!"
Seeing that her husband and son really cared about He Tian and didn't dislike him or push him along, Ye's mother's anxious heart instantly calmed down.
As long as the family doesn't reject He Tian and as long as the son can realize his mistakes, that's fine!
After we got He Tian back and talked things over, we were still a harmonious family from now on.
If the son and nephew could completely reconcile because of this, it would be the end of Ye's mother's worries.
The family of three didn't even bother to eat dinner. They took their mobile phones and went out in a panic.
They looked around for places that He Tian liked to go to, such as Internet cafes, bars, discotheques, KTVs... The three members of the Ye family searched them all.
As a result, there was no trace of "He Tian" at all.
It was almost midnight, but no one had been found yet. Mother Ye was so distraught that she couldn't help but shed tears.
"If it doesn't work, let's, let's go call the police!"
Father Ye felt sorry for his daughter-in-law and couldn't bear to see her so sad, so he whispered.
"Yes, yes, yes, let's go call the police!" Mother Ye seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and repeated her words.
Just when the couple were trembling with hands and preparing to call Yaoyaoling on their mobile phones, Ye Chen's mobile phone suddenly rang.
The old couple was startled and almost threw their mobile phones away.
Holding the phone tightly, Father Ye and Mother Ye both looked at Ye Chen, "Xiaochen, is this the call from Xiaotian?"
Ye Chen also hurriedly checked his cell phone and found, "No, yes, it's Su Wenyuan!"
It was late at night, almost early in the morning, and Su Wenyuan called him to find out what he was doing.
Ye Chen was confused, but he still pressed the call button: "Ye Zi, why don't you come over yet? Your cousin has been here long ago. Come over quickly, otherwise we will have to leave!"
Ye Chen:... Damn it! Oh my God, you, you, you, you actually went to find Su Wenyuan.
And He Tiantian, who went to drink with Su Wenyuan under the guise of her cousin, heard a familiar prompt sound from the depths of her consciousness:
