From Rejected Fake Heiress to Desired True Love-Chapter 274: There’s Meat to Eat
Chapter 274: Chapter 274: There’s Meat to Eat
Bai Zhenyang said excitedly, "Ye Han, you still have a lot of room for improvement in your chess skills!"
Li Yehan responded with a smile, "Uncle, I admit defeat wholeheartedly."
When Bai Jingyan heard this, he remarked, "Li Yehan’s chess skills aren’t that great, are they?"
Bai Jingting asked, "You think Li Yehan’s chess skills are poor?"
Bai Jingrui interjected, "It’s said that Li Yehan is quite skilled in chess, having even beaten Grandpa Bai."
Nan Qiao instantly understood that Li Yehan had intentionally lost to Bai Zhenyang.
The three brothers didn’t say anything, having already grasped what had happened.
Seeing the atmosphere become somewhat awkward, Nan Qiao hurriedly said, "The sketch was done by me, so it shouldn’t differ too much. Big brother, second brother, third brother, if you encounter someone, remember to take a photo and send it to me, or let me come to confirm."
The three brothers nodded unanimously in agreement, and Bai Jingting then shared the sketch in the family group chat for everyone to pay attention to this matter.
...
Nan Qiao approached Li Yehan and saw that he was still playing chess with Bai Zhenyang. She urged him to go home nevertheless.
"Li Yehan, it’s getting late. You should go home first."
Bai Zhenyang then realized it was already nine o’clock.
"Ye Han, Miss Qiao is right. You should go back and rest. We’ll play chess another day."
Li Yehan said without changing his expression, "Then I will head back first."
Bai Jingting quickly stood up and offered, "I’ll escort you."
Li Yehan originally wanted Nan Qiao to take him home, but unfortunately, Bai Jingting spoke first.
Li Yehan knew all too well what Bai Jingting’s intention was.
"There’s no need to be so polite, I can get back myself."
After exchanging a few courtesies, Li Yehan gave Nan Qiao a deep look and walked out alone.
...
Once Li Yehan exited, the driver came to pick him up.
Sitting in the car, Li Yehan’s thin lips parted slightly as he spoke to the driver, "Your salary for this month will be doubled."
The driver was overjoyed, "Thank you, Mr. Li. I wish you and Miss Nan Qiao a swift marriage and an early birth of precious children."
The driver was thrilled, indeed. Those with perceptive eyes reap the benefits!
The driver was happily driving, taking Li Yehan to the villa where Li Tianhong resided. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
As Li Yehan walked in, Li Tianhong was on the sofa talking to Jiang Linyu.
Hearing of Li Yehan’s arrival, the two exchanged looks, and Li Tianhong’s expression softened.
"Ye Han, take a seat, I have something to talk to you about."
Li Tianhong was no longer acting irate, seeming approachable. Li Yehan raised an eyebrow; he was curious to see what Li Tianhong was up to.
Li Yehan sat down and took out a cigarette from his pocket to light up.
Amidst the smoke, Li Tianhong couldn’t clearly see the expression on Li Yehan’s face.
Li Tianhong, feeling a sudden surge of insecurity, composed himself.
With Li Yehan’s fingers grasping the cigarette and his eyes coldly fixed on Li Tianhong, it was enough to make Li Tianhong feel closed off.
After regaining his composure, Li Tianhong finally said, "Ye Han, there’s something I’d like to discuss with you."
Seeing Li Yehan remaining silent, Li Tianhong continued, "Let Xiao Ye work at your company. He doesn’t need a very high position, just make him the manager of the purchasing department."
Jiang Linyu sat to one side, silent, waiting for the outcome.
Li Yehan saw this and let out a light sneer, "Purchasing department?"
The profits from that department were not small at all.
Jiang Linyu raised her head, smiling as she said, "Ye Han, after all, we are family, with bones connected by tendons. Xiao Ye is back to help you manage the company, how great is that?"
Li Yehan sneered lightly, but he did not speak, neither did Jiang Linyu nor Li Tianhong dare to.
Li Yehan stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray, chilling Jiang Linyu and Li Tianhong to the marrow.
His action, as if clamping down on their lifelines.
Leaning back in his chair, Li Yehan’s carefree expression was tinged with a hint of murderous intent, frightening the two into silence.
Li Yehan’s voice rang out in their ears, "Li Ye is not born of my mother, why should I arrange for him to work in the company? What right does he have?"
Li Tianhong wanted to explode, but Jiang Linyu’s hand pressing on his leg made him not dare to utter a word.
Jiang Linyu said, "Ye Han, I know you have a lot of misunderstandings with us. But now, everyone knows we’re family. You and Xiao Ye running the company together, how wonderful would that be?"
"Wonderful? What’s wonderful!" Li Yehan’s sharp gaze glared intensely at the two people.
With a cold and merciless tone, Li Yehan said, "The company has nothing to do with you, I will not agree to you entering the company. If you want to live, then live well. If you don’t want to, I can give you knives right now!"
An overwhelmingly dominant attitude filled with murderous intent made Jiang Linyu and Li Tianhong jump in fright.
Li Yehan stood up, his gaze sharp as a knife as he looked at the two; "I thought you would have some real skills, but after all this time, you’re just coveting the Li Family’s money!"
Jiang Linyu’s eyes became panicked, she hurriedly tried to explain, "Ye Han, that’s not what I meant. We are all family, I..."
"Shut up! Who are you to speak?" Li Yehan rebuked.
Jiang Linyu felt awkward and instinctively looked towards Li Tianhong.
Li Tianhong could not hold back any longer, slamming the table as he stood up, yelling, "Li Yehan, do you have no manners!"
"Li Tianhong, do you really want to humiliate yourself? ’When a son is uneducated, it’s the father’s fault.’ Have you forgotten the meaning of this phrase?"
Li Yehan got up and walked out, not wanting to stay a second longer.
Jiang Linyu walked out to grasp Li Yehan’s arm, desperately trying to secure a future for Li Ye.
Li Yehan shook her off, yet she did not let go.
Li Yehan’s piercing gaze shifted to her, kicking her in the shin.
Jiang Linyu winced in pain, forced to let go of Li Yehan’s hand, falling to the ground.
"Unfilial son!" Li Tianhong shouted angrily.
...
Li Yehan sat in the car, calling Old Mr. Li.
"Why would you help Li Ye."
Old Mr. Li was taken aback, responding, "Ye Han, what are you talking about? I didn’t help Li Ye."
Li Yehan frowned. "You didn’t agree to let Li Ye enter the company?"
Old Mr. Li said, "I haven’t thought about that, and I wouldn’t do such a thing. Ye Han, you are my grandson, Li Ye has nothing to do with our Li Family!"
Old Mr. Li sighed softly, then added, "Ye Han, you and I, grandfather and grandson, can no longer have any grudges between us. This family will eventually be handed over to you, not to Li Ye."
Old Mr. Li said so much, and only then did Li Yehan understand that he had misunderstood.
"Grandpa, sorry. Today, Li Tianhong and Jiang Linyu asked me over, hoping I would agree to let Li Ye into the company."
"Ye Han, I have always stood with you. This unfilial son, Li Tianhong, I don’t even want this son anymore, would I acknowledge his offspring?"
Old Mr. Li was very angry, infuriated by the things Li Tianhong had done.
A fine family, ruined to this state.
Old Mr. Li went on, "Ye Han, I believe you can manage the company well. Your judgment has always been good, like your fondness for Qiaoqiao, you really do have a good eye."
