Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life Chapter 1493 - 1482: The Cannon Fodder Eldest Brother of an Old-School Romance Novel

"You... are you determined to go against the family?" Ye Zhiliang was extremely upset, "We’re doing this for your own good, and you insist on making this family restless?"

Ye Qiu’s face also calmed down, but his expression seemed particularly cold: "I never thought I did anything wrong. Why can’t I pursue the love that belongs to me?"

"Then don’t blame me for being ruthless," Ye Zhiliang threatened, "Are you really willing to give up this massive family fortune?"

"The property was built by you and Mom. If you don’t want to give it to me, I have nothing to say."

"You have always been so sensible. Why are you unwilling to listen to us this time?"

"Then why can’t you grant me this one thing because I’ve always been sensible? What wrong have I done?"

"She is your brother’s ex-girlfriend. If the two of you are together, won’t the family be restless in the future?"

"Didn’t Yanting marry my ex-fiancée? Isn’t the family doing well now? Why do you have such double standards?"

Ye Zhiliang and Ren Zhen felt uneasy because throughout this, Ye Qiu was indeed not at fault. The ones who were wrong were Ye Yanting and Gu Wanqin. Now he was being made to bear the consequences of their mistakes, which indeed seemed unfair. But agreeing to this marriage was truly unreasonable. What if Tan Nana had malicious intent?

"I’ll punish your brother for his mistakes. As long as you don’t stay with Tan Nana, the company is yours. Isn’t that enough?" In Ye Zhiliang’s heart, Ye Qiu had always been the most capable heir, with the best choices. He was naturally reluctant to settle for less, so he continually used the company’s assets to pressure Ye Qiu. In his mind, how many people don’t love money? If the eldest son didn’t have money, would the Tan family even notice him?

"Dad, you’ve misjudged me all these years. I don’t necessarily need the company. Whatever you do is fine, but I will not give up on Nana." Ye Qiu said with great persistence.

"You’re confused," Ye Zhiliang was extremely upset, "Do you think you’re brave now? You’ll realize when you have no money to spend, leaving the Ye Family, you’re nothing."

The grandmother was angered by these words, scolding her own son: "What are you trying to say? That I raised Ye Qiu poorly? What mistake has he made for you to speak about him like this? Are you saying you’ll give him not a penny? You parents have always been biased, Ye Yanting took his elder brother’s fiancée, and you said nothing, yet Ye Qiu wants to pursue his own happiness, and you want to strip his inheritance? You’re trying to anger me to death!"

Ye Yanting felt uneasy at the grandmother’s words. Hadn’t his matter already passed? Why bring it up again? He had already admitted his mistake, hadn’t his elder brother already forgiven him and Wanqin?

Ye Yanting chose his words carefully: "Big brother, do you really understand Tan Nana?"

"What do you mean?"

"She pursued me for a long time before. I know her. She’s always been a capricious and unreasonable person who holds grudges. I suspect she doesn’t really like you. She’s deliberately arousing your interest to ruin our Ye Family. She pursued me for at least ten years. How could she fall for you so quickly?"

"Yes, your brother makes sense. I think that Tan Nana has bad intentions," Ren Zhen added, "There are so many women in the world. Why fixate on this one?"

"Then Mom, please ask Yanting, with so many women in the world, why did he have to like my former fiancée?"

"This..." Not only Ren Zhen but also Ye Yanting were at a loss for words.

Ye Qiu looked directly at him: "I let you and Wanqin be together. Why do you want to thwart my relationship? You think your love is sincere, but mine isn’t?"

Ye Yanting felt uncomfortable all over: "Big brother, that’s not what I meant."

Ye Qiu looked at the family in disappointment: "I initially wanted to share my love with you happily, but I didn’t expect that not one person would bless me. Instead, you all tried to stop me with various reasons. To be honest, I’m very disappointed today."

"Good child..." the grandmother looked at him with pain.

Ye Qiu continued: "No matter if you disapprove, look down on me, or even threaten me, I can’t help it. In this life, I’ve set my heart on Nana. I will marry her. If you think having us around will disturb the household, I’ll just visit less with Nana."

"Do you really not want this family fortune?" Ye Zhiliang said with a gloomy face.

"I can’t help it if Dad forces me this way."

"Without the Ye Family, do you think the Tan family will think highly of you?"

"Dad could build something from nothing back then. Believe me, I certainly can too."

"You’re overestimating yourself. Don’t think just because you’ve achieved so much, you’re something grand. All your opportunities for growth have been reliant on the Ye Family."

Ye Qiu sighed: "Dad, I’ll prove it to you. I want to live my life on my own terms. Although you’re my father, it doesn’t mean I have to do whatever you say. At the very least, I want to make my own decision about my marriage."

Ye Zhiliang was furious: "I never said you can’t make your own decisions, but just not Tan Nana."

"But I’ve only set my heart on her. Dad, after following your wishes for so many years, I want to rebel for once. Sorry, I won’t trade my feelings for the family fortune. Please leave the company’s matters to my brother." Ye Qiu said, heading to leave.

Ye Zhiliang continued to shout behind him: "You will regret it. Once you leave, you’ll find without a platform and money, you won’t be able to do anything."

"Stop!" Ye Zhiliang’s calls didn’t halt Ye Qiu’s steps, but his grandmother’s voice was something he couldn’t ignore.

Ye Zhiliang and Ren Zhen sighed in relief, but the old lady continued: "I’ll leave with you. If you’re not in this home, what’s the point of my staying here? Let me pack a few clothes."

Ye Zhiliang was exasperated: "Mom, why are you causing a fuss too?"

The old lady wasn’t pleased with him: "You two care for your youngest son, I care for my eldest grandson. Is there a problem?"

Then Ye Zhiliang could only watch his mother and eldest son leave helplessly. Seeing his son’s determined back, he couldn’t help but question himself. Was he truly wrong? Should he have supported his eldest son? But what if the Tan family really had malicious intent?

"What was happening downstairs? I heard a lot of noise." Returning to the room, Gu Wanqin asked out of curiosity.

"It’s big brother. He said he wanted to be with Tan Nana." Ye Yanting explained with a frown, "Big brother just doesn’t believe Tan Nana is seeking revenge, so he had a huge fight with mom and dad."

"Brother fought with mom and dad?" Gu Wanqin found it incredible, "And what is going on between him and Tan Nana?"

"Who knows? Don’t overthink it. Mom and dad will handle it."

"I just didn’t expect Ye Qiu to be so emotionally charged. Hasn’t he always been very rational and calm?"

"That’s why I say Tan Nana is trouble," Ye Yanting said, though he was thinking about something else. Did big brother really not want the family fortune?
