Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life Chapter 1167 - 1156: When the Daughter Is the Supporting Character and the Younger Sister Is the Protagonist

Zhang Beichen felt a surge of anxiety as he encountered Ye Yun, his immediate need being to ascertain if Ye Qiu had truly perished in a traffic accident.

His hand trembled as he pressed the doorbell. He pondered: if Ye Qiu, Ye Yun’s elder sister, were still alive, wouldn’t that mean Ye Yun couldn't inherit the Ye Group?

If Ye Shu retained her position as heir, she might persistently bother him in the future. What if she tried to manipulate him with shares and contracts? His parents would undoubtedly be even more insistent on his marriage to the eventual head of the Ye Group.

"Why have you come at this hour?" Ye Yun nervously glanced toward the stairs. "I haven't informed Dad about our relationship yet!"

Gazing at her, Zhang Beichen's heart swelled with tenderness. They had only recently married. That maniac, Ye Shu, had somehow learned of their involvement in harming her and her mother, leading her to attempt a deadly act against them. If he had known back then, he should have ensured her complete disappearance when he sent her abroad.

However, providence had seemingly favored him and Ye Yun, granting them a rebirth. This time, he was determined to prevent any recurrence of such a tragedy.

Observing her face, which appeared even more bashful and youthful than in the previous life, Zhang Beichen could no longer restrain his longing and pulled her into a tight embrace. "Honey, I've missed you terribly."

Upon hearing the endearment "wife," Ye Yun's face instantly flushed as if burning. She instinctively tried to pull away, but his embrace only tightened.

"Don't leave me; let me hold you for a moment longer," he whispered against her neck.

Seeing his apparent reliance on her filled Ye Yun's heart with sweetness. Yet, given their recently solidified relationship and the fact they were at her doorstep, she hadn't yet disclosed it to Ye Changfeng, which made her feel somewhat apprehensive.

Still, she didn't push him away, softly inquiring, "What's gotten into you today? Why are you suddenly calling me that?"

The very mention of it made her blush. Just the day before yesterday, he had called her Sister Yun; yesterday, he confirmed their relationship and called her Xiao Yun. Now, today, he had escalated to 'wife.' He was truly young and impulsive, but inwardly, she was overjoyed.

Addressing someone as 'wife' was not a casual matter. What did it signify? It indicated that Beichen had already placed her deeply within his heart.

"I don't care; from this moment on, I will call you my wife, for my future wife will only ever be you," Zhang Beichen coaxed Ye Yun, mirroring his actions from his past life. This was their private comfort, and whenever he needed something and acted this way, Ye Yun found it impossible to resist him.

"Alright, alright, call me whatever you wish. But you still haven't told me why you came over so early today?" Ye Yun responded with a helpless sigh.

Uncertain about the shifts in circumstances, Zhang Beichen offered a vague reply: "I received some news this morning and became a little concerned about you."

"Oh, are you referring to my elder sister's car accident yesterday?" Ye Yun quickly understood. "There's no serious harm done. The police are still investigating the cause, whether it was accidental or deliberate. We need to await their findings. Furthermore, my father has already arranged for a contingent of bodyguards to escort us, so further trouble should be averted."

"As long as nothing dire has occurred," Zhang Beichen stated casually, but inwardly, a tempest of questions raged, incessantly probing the reasons for the altered circumstances and their potential repercussions.

The more he contemplated these matters, the more uneasy he became. What had seemed like a predetermined outcome had turned uncertain simply because Ye Qiu had not died.

A sense of panic began to creep in. If the established trajectory of the world had deviated, what unforeseen events might await him and Xiao Yun?

No, he absolutely would not permit such a thing to transpire. In this lifetime, he would remain with Xiao Yun forever, and nothing or no one would tear them apart, even if Xiao Yun's elder sister were still alive!

"Beichen? You and Xiao Yun, is this...?" Ye Changfeng had awakened later than usual today. Not finding his wife beside him, he left the bed to search for her. Unexpectedly, he discovered his daughter and his favored son-in-law in an embrace, his eyes widening in astonishment.

At the sound, Ye Yun swiftly released Zhang Beichen, lowering her gaze and hesitating to reply. "Dad, we..."

She stammered, unsure how to articulate the situation. However, Zhang Beichen exhibited considerable boldness, meeting Ye Changfeng's gaze directly.

"Uncle Ye, Xiao Yun and I share a genuine love; we implore you to grant us your blessing." His earnest gaze and sincere tone settled Ye Yun's heart, emboldening her to face her father.

"Dad, Beichen is correct, we genuinely love each other. Won’t you give us your blessing?" she inquired, a flicker of hope in her voice. She then felt a touch of uncertainty. "I understand you initially favored Beichen and Xiao Shu being together, but matters of the heart are beyond one's control. Please forgive me, I am prepared to compensate Xiao Shu in any way you deem appropriate."

"I never made any arrangements with Ye Shu, so why must you offer her compensation?" Zhang Beichen expressed his displeasure. "Why should we make concessions to her?"

"But..."

"There are no 'buts' when it comes to matters of the heart," Zheng Beichen stated, pursing his lips. "Uncle Ye, I realize I am still young, but I implore you to believe that my feelings for Xiao Yun are sincere. I promise I will absolutely never let her down in the future."

Ye Yun's heart felt a surge of warmth as she listened to his words. While she had agreed to date him, doubts had lingered. Yet, witnessing him, at just nineteen, bravely face her father, take responsibility, and pledge his devotion to her happiness, her heart felt significantly more at ease.

In that moment, she knew her choice of Beichen in this life was not mistaken. She harbored no regrets about having actively pursued him and secured him before her niece, Ye Shu, had the chance.

Observing Zhang Beichen's earnest promises before him, Ye Changfeng's thoughts grew intricate. Until this day, Zhang Beichen had always been the prime candidate in his eyes for a grandson-in-law. Unexpectedly, the person he truly fancied was revealed to be his younger daughter, thus creating an unusual generational dynamic.

Nevertheless, their words held truth; love cannot be coerced. He had attempted to force it for over a decade, and Zhang Beichen had never developed a spark with his granddaughter, yet he harbored deep affection for his younger daughter.

He glanced at his daughter's visibly anxious expression and felt a pang of discomfort. He wondered if his youngest daughter had always harbored a sense of fear and reverence towards him. He already felt indebted to her; how could he possibly interfere with her romantic life and deny her the one she loved?

"Zhang Beichen, do you truly love Xiao Yun?" he inquired sternly.

"Yes," Zhang Beichen responded with unwavering confidence, casting a loving gaze at Ye Yun. "I will exclusively be with her, always."

"Then engrave these words in your memory from this day forward. Although Xiao Yun is two years your senior, I expect you to cherish and care for her throughout the coming days. The responsibility rests solely on your shoulders. Do you comprehend?"

His declaration signified his approval. Ye Yun and Zhang Beichen's eyes illuminated with pure joy, their faces beaming.

"I understand! I shall not fail Uncle's expectations," Zhang Beichen declared with conviction. Meanwhile, Ye Yun, subject to the attention of both men, listened intently, her cheeks flushing once more before she softly curved her lips into a delighted smile.
