Su Min and his aunt were not very interested in Ye Shaohua’s wandering life.
The aunt merely looked at Ye Shaohua with surprise and then did not ask anything else.
The group started talking about the company’s business again.
"Tongtong was busy with company work again today?" Su Min said with a satisfied expression upon hearing Su Lan’s answer, "I told her not to push herself so hard, but she just can’t sit still, just like our old Su Family kind."
As the group chatted, Ye Li listened but felt stifled inside.
Although he had anticipated that Ye Shaohua’s life for the first seventeen years must have been tough, hearing it from Ye Shaohua herself still made Ye Li uncomfortable.
Like his grandfather, he really wanted to know how she endured those seventeen years and how she managed to return to the country.
But he dared not ask.
Ye Li, feeling restless, fished out a cigarette from his pocket, wanting to light it, but after pulling out the lighter, he suddenly remembered something and put it back.
The three people beside him were still talking about Ye Tong.
Ye Li was accustomed to behaving capriciously and did not know whom his uncle and aunt really came for.
He looked directly at Ye Shaohua, "Do... do you want to see my room?"
Ye Shaohua, who was looking at the message from Nie Jinyu, was taken aback when she heard Ye Li’s question before slowly nodding, "Okay."
Ye Li blurted out the invitation impulsively and felt a bit uneasy after he said it.
Not expecting Ye Shaohua to agree, Ye Li was caught off guard, and slightly flustered, he led her upstairs.
His bedroom was connected to a swimming pool and a gym, and because he was a soldier, everything inside was arranged in an orderly fashion.
Ye Li showed her many things, including his treasured medals, toys he played with as a child...
Anything he liked, he would stash away. Ye Tong didn’t really approve of this habit.
But Ye Li didn’t care. These items were all organized by himself, and the babysitter didn’t dare to touch his hidden treasures when cleaning.
Today was the first time he took them out to show someone else.
Ye Shaohua watched patiently for a long while before suddenly raising her head and looking at Ye Li with a complex expression.
"Is there something wrong with me?" Ye Li scratched his head, self-conscious under Ye Shaohua’s gaze, and suddenly remembered that Ye Shaohua had never lived with the Ye Family, so showing her these things was like jabbing her in the heart, wasn’t it?
"No, it’s nothing," Ye Shaohua withdrew her gaze, stood up, and pulled out a toffee from her pocket, handing it over to Ye Li, "Want some?"
Startled by the unexpected offer of candy, Ye Li paused before nervously saying thanks.
Ye Shaohua glanced at him and then suddenly smiled, "The butler is calling us, let’s go downstairs."
Ye Li followed behind her, unwrapping the toffee and placing it in his mouth.
It was quite sweet.
The aunt knew how rotten the Entertainment Circle was; it was no new thing for their younger relatives to keep little stars as mistresses. ƒreewebɳovel.com
These artists might sound respectable, but in the eyes of the aunt and others like her, they were just actors.
Ye Shaohua glanced at the aunt and suddenly laughed, "What to do? I’ll take down Men Shanshan first and then get an international award, aiming for the international screen."
The aunt, coming from a scholarly family, did not expect Ye Shaohua to speak so crudely.
Her smile stiffened for a moment before she regained her composure, "Is your goal just to be an... artist?"
With the old master and Ye Feng present, the aunt couldn’t say anything too harsh, but she was stunned by Ye Shaohua’s "great" aspiration.
She had thought that Ye Shaohua might not know about Ye Li’s status in the Military District, and at the very least, she should know what Ye Tong was doing, right?
At the very least, she should know they were from the Su Family, right?
The least she could do was demand a General Manager position from the Ye Family, right?
Who knew that Ye Shaohua’s ambitions were so limited?
"Yeah, is that not suitable? I think it’s interesting," Ye Shaohua seemed to find it genuinely intriguing and smiled again.
Su Lan frowned slightly upon hearing Ye Shaohua’s words.
"Shaohua, your uncle just mentioned that a branch office will be opened here in Imperial City," Su Lan said, turning to Ye Tong with a warm smile, "Your grandfather and your uncle are the only ones, and your uncle wanted Tongtong to manage the branch office; but Tongtong just came back and said she wants to let you take over, see how good your sister is to you. Forget about those things in Entertainment Circle and come back to help your uncle manage the company. This is also a gift from your uncle to you."
Without looking up, Ye Shaohua replied indifferently, "No need, I can’t."
"You’re supposed to learn because you don’t know how," Su Lan patiently shifted her gaze to Ye Shaohua, eyes filled with what seemed to be affection, "With your sister here, what are you afraid of? If you come across anything you don’t understand, your sister will help you manage. Tongtong, right?"
