Chapter 1176 - 1165: When the Daughter Is the Supporting Role and the Younger Sister Is the Heroine
With Zhang Beichen’s help, Ye Yun slowly emerged from the crisis, and Ye Qiu didn’t deliberately undermine Ye Yun’s business, mainly fearing that her father might be provoked into another incident.
Since Mei Chunli’s sentencing, her father’s mental state had deteriorated considerably, becoming dependent on doctors and nurses. Regardless of the past, at least in this life, he made a reasonable choice regarding her car accident and didn’t force Ye Qiu to write a forgiveness letter afterward.
However, Ye Yun grew to hate Ye Changfeng, and never visited, which had always been a sore spot for Ye Changfeng.
Although he didn’t openly attack, Ye Qiu secretly supported a gaming company and an entertainment company specifically to antagonize Ye Yun, snatching several business deals from her, ensuring she didn’t go bankrupt but would leave her hopping mad.
Three years passed, Ye Yun’s company remained lukewarm, not developing as she and Zhang Beichen had anticipated, but this year Zhang Beichen just turned twenty-two, reaching the age to legally obtain a marriage certificate.
"When exactly are you planning to marry me?" After a round of tenderness, Ye Yun nestled in Zhang Beichen’s arms.
Zhang Beichen looked satisfied: "Soon, I’ve taken over several company projects, and my father said once I succeed, all matters will be left to me to handle."
"Really?" Ye Yun looked overjoyed.
Zhang Beichen kissed her eyes: "Of course, I’m not going to lie to you, just wait for me."
At this moment, Ye Shu also harbored doubts about the projects Zhang Beichen took over: "Mom, didn’t you gradually stop cooperating with the Zhang Family? Why not now compete with Zhang Beichen for business?"
"Yes, I did it on purpose," Ye Qiu said confidently.
"Why? Zhang Beichen has consistently opposed us, why facilitate him?"
Ye Qiu smiled slightly: "Because I’ve heard reliable news, once Zhang Beichen completes these projects, Zhang Shengnian plans to slowly transfer most of the company’s business to him and won’t even interfere with his marriage."
Ye Shu’s eyes lit up: "Mom, do you mean wait until Zhang Beichen takes over Zhang Group before considering settling the scores?"
"Yes, precisely, I’ll start taking action once he and Ye Yun get married."
Ye Shu nodded: "That’s best, these two are like flies, either opposing you or spreading rumors outside about you and me, they’re detestable. Tally it all up with them together, it’s more efficient."
Then her brow furrowed again: "But what if Grandpa finds out?"
Ye Qiu’s eyes turned cold: "Your grandfather’s health is worsening, he doesn’t need to know about this."
It’s not that she was heartless, but rather Ye Yun was truly repugnant, not daring to confront openly, colluding with outsiders to harm her—her sister, and Ye Shu—her niece. Had she not trained her daughter with the Body Building Book since childhood, her daughter might have met with accidents amid repeated kidnappings.
Even after Mei Chunli went in, her father continued to protect Ye Yun, every incident involved him cleaning up after her, preventing her from finding the slightest evidence.
She didn’t wish to be so ruthless, but they were forced into it. The two believed having lived through a rebirth, everything was in their grasp. Ye Qiu was determined to teach them a lesson, one from which they’d never recover!
Half a year later, twenty-two-year-old Zhang Beichen and twenty-four-year-old Ye Yun obtained their marriage certificate and held a grand wedding in front of the media. With Zhang Beichen, heir to the Zhang Group, safeguarding Ye Yun, her status soared instantly as she stood on stage, gleefully casting a glance at Ye Qiu who came to attend the feast.
Ye Yun thought she had finally triumphed, but Ye Qiu didn’t regard her at all, merely indifferent as she shifted her gaze away, with a contemptuous smirk at the corner of her mouth, instantly infuriating Ye Yun.
"I knew she was uncouth, exposing such a vicious look at the wedding, to whom is she showing?" Mrs. Zhang criticized, deliberately looking away as she found it repugnant, yet unexpectedly was drawn to Ye Shu.
Today’s special attire was very simple, just a light blue long dress, yet her tall and slender figure, elegant neck, made her look poised and graceful.
Mrs. Zhang felt more heartache, muttering, "What sort of taste does my son have? Ye Shu is ten times better than Ye Yun?"
Mr. Zhang had a Buddhist mindset: "What can you do when your son likes her? Take it easy."
But after this day, even Mr. Zhang dropped his Buddhist stance because Ye Qiu launched a fierce offensive against his Zhang Group, causing a significant fluctuation in Zhang Group’s stocks within just a day.
It was then that everyone realized they had underestimated Ye Qiu. The Ye Group she managed wasn’t merely a surface-level stable growth.
In fact, she had privately invested in numerous industries, now unified they revealed the major power generated by these industries.
"This madman, what exactly does she want?" Mr. Zhang was fuming, pacing agitatedly, "Why would she do such a thing? Inflicting damage on a rival at great cost, doesn’t she understand this accounting?"
"Why did she choose this moment?" Mrs. Zhang frowned, then gave Ye Yun a suspicious look, "Was it you? Did you cause this trouble?"
Ye Yun jumped in fright, denied: "How could it be me? If she wanted to deal with me, she would have done it long ago. Isn’t dealing with me alone easier than the entire Zhang Family?"
Zhang Beichen came to defend: "Dad, Mom, Xiao Yun is right, this has nothing to do with her, totally just Ye Qiu the crazy woman acting up."
This explanation appeared plausible, so Zhang Family parents didn’t further trouble Ye Yun and began to tap their network hoping to meet Ye Qiu.
Ultimately, the two were left with no choice; seeing their stock prices were continuously dropping, shareholders gradually lost hope in them, they had no option but to confront her directly.
"President, the Zhang Family is here again," the secretary reported truthfully to Ye Qiu.
"Not seeing them," she replied without lifting her head, continuing to handle her affairs.
Upon hearing Ye Qiu didn’t want to see them, the Zhang Family persisted in blocking her after work, disregarding how others viewed them, they approached directly and even humbled themselves: "Miss Ye, may we have the grace for an opportunity to talk?"
Ye Qiu sneered dismissively: "Want to beg for mercy? Want to ask why I’m targeting your Zhang Family? You should ask your son and daughter-in-law, how did they try to kidnap my daughter then? How did they attempt to harm me? I’m not using their sordid means, I only engage in legitimate business competition."
Zhang Family parents were infuriated, was this legitimate business competition? But now they were at a disadvantage, lacking the confidence to say harsh words, merely noting the reason she stated, discovering it all stemmed from their son and daughter-in-law!
