Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 579: Taking a Loss in Silence

Of course, Zhao Gushen would go all out against Shi Jiumei for Ye Fei.

In Ye Ning’s view, Ye Fei couldn’t possibly have that capability on her own.

So now, Ye Ning herself wasn’t very certain anymore.

"Even so, there’s no need to come back so early. She’s been in City B for so many years, does she really not have any savings?" Ye Ning said, "Moreover, the way she’s going now, she might actually win the culinary competition."

"At that time, there’d be a million in prize money!" Ye Ning reminded.

"What do you mean by that?" Ye Dezhang suddenly spoke sternly, "Are you calculating how to take your sister’s money?"

"No, it’s not that." Ye Ning accidentally exposed herself and quickly tried to cover up, "It’s because of the restaurant’s compensation issue. I can’t come up with the money immediately. Just thought if it’s suitable, Ye Fei could make an advance for us."

"Besides, these five years, she hasn’t cared about the family at all. I bought the house for our family and she hasn’t contributed a single penny to the restaurant." Ye Ning said, "Even if we really ask her to fork out money for compensation, Dad, I don’t think my request is unreasonable."

Previously, Ye Ning had also said the same thing.

Ye Dezhang seemed to agree with her back then.

Therefore, Ye Ning said the same this time.

Ye Ning didn’t notice that Xu Huizhen, who was beside her, started giving her frantic signals with her eyes when she heard what Ye Ning said.

Ye Ning was watching Ye Dezhang, but then suddenly, Ye Dezhang’s expression changed.

Ye Dezhang abruptly stood up.

He pointed at Ye Ning and shouted in anger, "How dare you bring this up!"

"Dad, you... what’s wrong?" It was rare to see Ye Dezhang get angry.

Ye Dezhang suddenly lashed out, and Ye Ning was shocked.

"Ye Fei already told me, and your mother admitted it!" Ye Dezhang roared, "And you’re still pretending to be clueless with me!"

Although Xu Huizhen had been stubbornly denying it before.

But later, Xu Huizhen stopped denying it, so what did Ye Dezhang not know?

This was Xu Huizhen admitting it!

"Admitted what?" Ye Ning was genuinely baffled at this moment.

Busy with the restaurant issues, her mind was in a muddle now.

"Back then, you and your mother planned to sell Ye Fei!" Ye Dezhang declared.

Ye Ning gasped.

She instinctively turned to look at Xu Huizhen.

Such an important matter, why hadn’t Xu Huizhen told her!

"Don’t look at your mother, she admitted it!" Ye Dezhang said angrily.

Seeing Ye Ning’s shock, whose first reaction was not to deny it but to seek confirmation from Xu Huizhen,

It further confirmed the truth of what Ye Fei had said.

"Since you two exchanged her for ten million, securing the life we have now, how can you have the nerve to ask Ye Fei for money?" Ye Dezhang questioned.

"How can you have the face to say that you paid for living expenses, and bought the house? Clearly, all of this was paid by Ye Fei!" Ye Dezhang said.

"What?" Ye Ning suddenly stood up, "How did it end up being her money?"

"All of that money was my contribution!" Ye Ning shrieked.

"Do you think, just because the money came to your hands, that makes it your contribution?" Ye Dezhang said, "All this money was gained because you exchanged Ye Fei, basically, it’s all Ye Fei’s!"

"So, don’t bring up making her pay for the restaurant’s compensation again!" Ye Dezhang stated, "Whether Ye Fei has money or not, you don’t need to think about benefiting from her anymore!"

Ye Ning’s face turned pale and flushed.

This was the first time in her life she tasted the bitterness of having her achievements snatched away without being able to say anything.

Clearly, she was the one who sacrificed, who gave effort, and in the end, everything she had given had become Ye Fei’s!

Yet, she couldn’t speak the truth!

She couldn’t afford to let anyone know she had slept with Boss Liu and even bore him a child! She had to keep it a secret!

After all, she was looking to marry into a wealthy family.

She couldn’t allow her past to have any blemishes.

Ye Ning looked to Xu Huizhen.

Saw Xu Huizhen shaking her head at her.

It was evident Xu Huizhen tightly kept the secret, never revealing it.

Unexpectedly, Xu Huizhen was reliable at the crucial moment.

However, Ye Ning was still overwhelmed with unprecedented injustice.

Everything she had done for the family in these five years, all the sacrifices she made, were now completely negated.

Were rendered null.

Ye Ning didn’t argue anymore about this issue on her behalf.

Since she couldn’t tell the truth, she would have to endure the silent suffering.

Ha!

Ye Ning sneered, this was the first time she had to swallow such silent suffering.

And for the first time, it was a suffering of this magnitude!

"It’s late now, you all should rest." Ye Ning softly said, "Let’s talk about anything else tomorrow."

Everyone had already returned, and it wasn’t possible to send them back to City B now.

For now, Ye Ning truly wasn’t in the mood to say anything more.

Not looking at Ye Dezhang or Xu Huizhen, she returned to her room.

Upon closing the door, Ye Ning was so furious she wanted to smash everything.

"Ye Fei!" Ye Ning called out angrily, gritting her teeth.

This time, she had been outsmarted by Ye Fei.

Fully aware that what Ye Fei said wasn’t true, yet she couldn’t refute it.

The first time under Ye Fei’s hands, she suffered such a big humiliation!

"Heh heh!" Couldn’t tell, Ye Fei had changed so much in these five years in Beijing!

Did Ye Fei think she only needed to scare Ye Dezhang and Xu Huizhen back here to accomplish her goal?

Now she was busy with the restaurant affairs, unable to handle Ye Fei for the moment.

Once she resolved the matters here, she was determined to personally go to City B to confront Ye Fei.

She was never going to let Ye Fei off the hook!

Ye Ning was still trembling with anger, seeing all her contributions snatched away by Ye Fei.

That bandit!

That thief!

"Knock, knock, knock!" There was suddenly a knock on the door.

"Ning Ning, it’s me." Xu Huizhen’s voice sounded from outside.

Ye Ning took a deep breath, opened the door with a cold expression.

Xu Huizhen quickly slipped in, closing the door behind her.

"Ning Ning, are you okay?" Xu Huizhen asked with concern.

"I won’t let Ye Fei get away with this!" Ye Ning said through gritted teeth.

"I never thought that little wretch Ye Fei has become so difficult." Xu Huizhen said, feeling the irritation.

"After all, she must have had her share of struggles in Beijing, their circle of influencers is chaotic and fiercely competitive, if she wasn’t sharp, she wouldn’t have reached the fame she has now." Ye Ning said coldly.

"By the way, what exactly did Ye Fei say about the past?" Ye Ning asked, "Tell me all her words clearly, don’t add or omit anything."

Xu Huizhen thought for a moment and then sat on the small sofa in Ye Ning’s room and started recounting.

"It’s been five years, no matter what she says, without evidence it’s useless. And it’s been five years already, who can trace back to find the truth from five years ago? Even if someone is determined to find evidence from back then, it’s been five years, where would they even start?"
