Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life Chapter 1424 - 1413: The Young Uncle of the Prestigious Family

"Uncle..." Ye Xingyan murmured, "This wasn’t my idea, why won’t you believe me?"

Looking at her daughter’s devastated demeanor, Shen Huiran felt a pang in her heart, rare for her to be forceful in front of Ye Qiu: "Second brother, whether it’s Xingyan or Ye Yao, they are both my daughters, so let my husband and me handle this, please, don’t intervene, alright?"

Ye Qiu looked back: "You think I’m meddling?"

He no longer used the title of elder sister-in-law, showing how upset he was. Zhang Jingyi understood her son, and although he wasn’t particularly invested in Ye Bai’s family usually, he maintained the necessary courtesy. But this time, he was truly angry.

It’s not just her son; she also felt Shen Huiran’s words were a bit excessive. What do you mean Ye Yao’s issue isn’t a big deal? What do you mean they’re both your daughters so you should handle it? With the way you’re biased, what can you say to Ye Yao?

"That’s not what your elder sister-in-law meant." Ye Bai was more perceptive, quickly smoothing over the situation, "Second brother, you’re still recovering, letting these matters distract you isn’t worthwhile. Why don’t you leave it to me? I’ll make sure Yaoyao gets justice and isn’t wronged in vain. Whether Xingyan was behind it or not, once Yaoyao wakes up, Xingyan will apologize sincerely, and I won’t let the culprit off either."

"Do you know who the culprit is, elder brother?" Ye Qiu asked again.

Ye Bai stiffened: "Whoever it is, if they’ve done something wrong, they must be punished."

"Not necessarily, Shi Junmian is from the Beijing Shi Family, elder brother, can you touch him? Plus, he’s a minor, not even the police can do anything."

"Someone from the Shi Family?" Ye Bai froze, evidently at a loss for words.

"How does elder brother plan to stand up for Ye Yao?"

"Well..." Ye Bai’s face turned sour, "If they are from the Shi Family, it’s indeed tricky to act."

"So elder brother plans to let it go?"

"We can’t drag our Ye Family into head-on conflict with the Shi Family over some children’s quarrel." Ye Bai laughed dryly.

"Elder brother doesn’t want to stick up for Ye Yao—but I do," Ye Qiu lowered his head and smiled, his smile made Ye Xingyan’s heart tighten.

"Second brother, don’t be impulsive, our Ye Family has worked hard to grow this big, squandering it for personal vendettas isn’t a good idea, wouldn’t you agree, Dad?" Ye Bai looked at Ye Tang, seemingly seeking his approval, presenting himself as mature while making Ye Qiu seem rash.

However, Ye Tang didn’t criticize Ye Qiu as Bai expected, instead nonchalantly saying, "In the future, this family will belong to Ye Qiu anyway; he can do what he likes, I have no objections."

These words deeply angered Ye Bai; he’d been so humble, devoted to the Ye Family, yet Dad still sides with Ye Qiu. Is this favoritism?

Ye Bai never considered that while he thought Ye Tang was biased towards Ye Qiu, wasn’t he and Shen Huiran biased towards Ye Xingyan themselves?

And you can’t compare, you’re just Ye Tang’s illegitimate son, while Ye Qiu is his legitimate heir; why wouldn’t Ye Tang favor him?

Ye Bai lowered his gaze, Shen Huiran gripped Ye Xingyan’s hand as if the family was being bullied.

"Since elder brother and your family can’t bear to leave Ye Xingyan, why don’t you all move out? You can spoil Ye Xingyan all you want then, and Ye Yao won’t be able to bully her anymore," Ye Qiu straightforwardly proposed to send them away, completely disregarding family ties.

"Uncle, does Sister Yao think this too? Does she want to drive us out?" Ye Xingyan spoke softly, "I don’t mind, but could you ask her to treat Mom and Dad better? Even though they might favor me a bit, they’re still her biological parents and care for her, I hope she’s not too petty."

"At this point, you’re still trying to slander Ye Yao, you’re quite something." Ye Qiu sneered, "No need to perform for me; she doesn’t know, it’s my decision. Elder brother and sister-in-law care more for you, can’t bear to lose you, so you should all leave, you’re not happy here at the Ye Family, right?"

Ye Bai forced a smile: "Second brother, that’s not what we meant."

"Well, I think it is. Elder brother, you can’t bear leaving the wealth here?"

"I can’t."

"Good that elder brother doesn’t, since my leg will soon be better; I can help Dad run the company then. Elder brother, you’ve worked hard these past few years, you should rest more!" Ye Qiu said unreservedly.

Ye Bai’s face darkened, speaking in a low voice: "Second brother, you plan to use and toss me? Dad, do you think I’m useless too?"

Ye Tang unemotionally looked at him: "You’re disturbed. When I first brought you here, I said that the Ye Family isn’t connected to you and could send you away anytime. You agreed back then."

Ye Bai was speechless; he indeed agreed at the time, but he lacked ambition, and hadn’t enjoyed the benefits and prestige of being part of the Ye Family. Now, his ambitions had grown; getting rid of him wasn’t easy.

"Dad, do you really have no feelings for me? If so, why did you let me be born back then?"

"Your mom decided to have you, she willingly followed me. Haven’t I given you enough support? I believe I’ve treated you fairly."

"You" naturally referred to all other illegitimate children, including Ye Bai, which chilled him. Despite living in this home for years, doing so much, in his father’s eyes, he remained no different from other illegitimate children.

"Though you’ve achieved little over these years, if you feel discontent, I can give you a small company." Ye Tang said as if giving charity.

Ye Bai and Shen Huiran, along with Ye Xingyan, felt they were thrown into a freezing cellar. Was this a move to strip them of their positions? A small company? To dismiss people like that?

Especially Ye Xingyan, she thought it was just some small quarrel among the younger generation, didn’t expect it to escalate this much. Is Ye Yao worth Uncle doing this for? Just a small matter, and not even orchestrated by her. If she had known, she should’ve stopped Shi Junmian back then.

Ye Xingyan felt overwhelming regret, but what’s done was done, remorse was futile.

"Uncle, it’s all my fault, I shouldn’t have messed with Shi Junmian. I’ll leave the family, please don’t trouble Mom and Dad, okay?" At this point, she could only protect her parents; only with them intact in this family could she have a chance to return.
