Chapter 287 -287: No Need for You to Substitute for My Daughter Anymore

Ye Shuangyin clung to Madam Ye’s arm, shaking it back and forth, “Mom, I know I was wrong, and from now on I’ll listen to you. I’ll follow whatever you and dad arrange, I’ll marry Sheng Tingyuan, and become the young Madam of the Sheng family!”

Madam Ye looked at her daughter who had become sensible, at her skinny frame that was almost skeletal, at the countless wounds on her arms, and her heart ached immensely.

The position of the young Madam of the Sheng family had always been meant for her daughter.

Sheng Tingyuan, too, was meant for her daughter!

Wiping her eyes, she turned to look at Chuyi, “Chuyi, the matter of you replacing my daughter to marry Sheng Tingyuan ends here! From now on, there’s no need for you to replace her anymore. My daughter has come back, and everything should return to its proper course. That’s right, isn’t it?”

Chuyi came to the Ye family precisely to discuss revealing her false identity as the wealthy heiress with Madam Ye.

Now that Madam Ye was asking for things to be set right, Chuyi had nothing to argue about.

Although the manner and tone in which the mother and daughter spoke made her uncomfortable, she still briskly agreed, “Fine, it ends here. I agree to Madam’s suggestion.”

“I disagree!”

Ye Zhengrong slapped the table with a stern face, causing the tea sets on it to clatter loudly.

Angry, he glared at Madam Ye and Ye Shuangyin, “Do you two regard the Sheng family as some nameless, insignificant household? Is a wife someone you can just change at will? The Sheng family is even mightier than the Ye family! Sheng Tingyuan himself is strong-willed and absolutely unwilling to suffer losses!”

“Even Sheng Huai’an, that old fox, couldn’t outmaneuver Sheng Tingyuan. Do you two think you can?”

“Shuangyin is so brainless, and she hasn’t even divorced that poor lad yet! To have her marry over now, it would be a miracle if the two families don’t become enemies, let alone cooperate! Are you trying to doom me, doom the Ye family?!”

Ye Shuangyin cried out, “Dad, if I’m not divorced, you can help me get a divorce. What’s so difficult about that? Why won’t you even help me with such a small thing? I now realize my mistakes and am willing to marry Sheng Tingyuan to assist with the family alliance, so why do you disagree now?”

“Is it because you have a fake daughter, you’ve forgotten your real one? Have you lost your mind? This replacement is fake! Fake!”

Ye Zhengrong shouted sternly, “Shut your mouth! Even if she is fake, she’s better than the real thing you are! Do you have any idea of the trouble you caused the Ye family by running away from the wedding?! If it weren’t for her taking your place, we would still have no idea how to explain to the Sheng family to this day!”

“You just go, go as far away as possible. Didn’t you like living a poor life with that poor boy? Go live that way! No one is stopping you now. Isn’t freedom what you wanted? Isn’t true love what you wanted? I’ve granted it, you’re free now!”

“The Ye family doesn’t harbor idlers and incompetents! When the Ye family needed you to fulfill your family duty, to marry into another family, you ran away. So don’t even think about coming back for any benefits!”

“My face has been completely lost by you; I have no face to go back to the Sheng family and ask them to marry you now!”

All at once, Madam Ye began to cry, “Ye Zhengrong! You are absolutely heartless and cruel! Xiaoyin is your biological daughter, not your enemy! How can you say these things to her!”

“She’s my daughter? Who says so? Read her will, is she willing to acknowledge that? You’ve forgotten what she said three years ago when we wanted her to marry into the Sheng family, but I haven’t forgotten! She said she didn’t want to be a pawn in a marriage alliance, didn’t want to be the daughter of Ye Zhengrong, said she wanted to leave the Ye family, to change her name and live a life of freedom!”

“Xiaoyin was young at that time, she didn’t know any better! Why are you holding a grudge against a child?”

“She was already twenty-three then!”

“So what if she was twenty-three? Xiaoyin has a simple mind; she is also a victim. If anyone is to blame, it’s all Hen Mingjun’s fault! Look at what he’s done to Xiaoyin, how he’s beaten her up! He also didn’t give Xiaoyin food to eat, kept her locked up so she couldn’t escape!”

The more Madam Ye spoke, the more heartbroken she became, crying uncontrollably, “I wondered why Xiaoyin didn’t contact us for three years; it turns out she was imprisoned! Our daughter was tormented like this by him. Instead of taking revenge for her, finding a way to compensate her, how can you still scold her? Ye Zhengrong, you’re too cold-hearted!”
