Chapter 291: Great Uncle, Save Me!
“Okay, we’ll take Xiaoxiao back first,” Zhang Chenchen agreed worriedly, as Xiaoxiao’s condition didn’t look good either.
Along the way, Zhang Chenchen, Ye Jiuli, and their two daughters were in the same car. Zhang Chenchen found it inconvenient to call or text her uncle, Ye Baiyu, in front of Ye Jiuli to ask him to persuade them to take Xiaoxiao back to France, as it wasn’t worth risking Lu Ziyi’s life!
Not long after the car started, Ye Chuxiao kept pleading, “Dad, Senior Student Ziyi has been locked in the cold storage for a long time. Please let him out, okay?”
“We haven’t even reached the cold storage yet,” Ye Jiuli said, unmoved. “Xiaoxiao, stop worrying about him. Whether he lives or dies is his own decision!”
Ye Chuxiao was worried that Senior Student Ziyi wouldn’t be able to handle this decision. Last night, he was already extremely distressed, yet he repeatedly refused her. If she hadn’t resolutely stripped and run into the bathroom to embrace him, he wouldn’t have wanted her!
But now, she couldn’t go and persuade Senior Student Ziyi!
After a few minutes, Ye Chuxiao weakly said again, “Dad, just lock Senior Student Ziyi up for a few minutes, okay? He took a cold shower for a long time last night; he won’t be able to stand it!”
Ye Jiuli said indifferently, “Didn’t he become passionate later? I see that fire is still burning now, enough to keep him warm in the cold storage!”
Within a few minutes, Ye Chuxiao pleaded again. Ye Jiuli leaned back against the chair, closed his eyes, and said, “I’m tired after sitting on a plane all night. I’m going to sleep for a while.”
Ye Chuxiao was in a difficult position. Zhang Chenchen waved her hand, signaling her not to disturb her father, as he was angry now and wouldn’t change his mind, only making things worse.
Zhang Chenchen gave her elder daughter, Ye Chujun, a look and mouthed the words “Little Granduncle” to her. Ye Chujun immediately understood.
Ye Chujun pretended to be wearing headphones and playing a mobile game, then emailed her Little Granduncle, informing him about Ziyi and Xiaoxiao’s situation and requesting his immediate support.
The car stopped at the Ye Family Main Residence, in front of the villa exclusively for Ye Jiuli. As they got out of the car, they saw a tall and robust figure waiting on the stone steps of the main entrance.
“Uncle,” Ye Jiuli greeted calmly. At this moment, seeing his uncle, Ye Baiyu, waiting there, he wasn’t surprised and guessed what had happened while he was resting with his eyes closed in the car.
Zhang Chenchen and her two daughters exchanged glances, afraid that their husbands and father would get even angrier.
“Jiuli, Chenchen, you’re back!” Ye Baiyu said with a smile. “Jun’er and Xiaoxiao are getting more beautiful!”
“Uncle.”
“Little Granduncle.”
Zhang Chenchen, Ye Chuxiao, and Ye Chujun greeted them politely, their hearts clenched, as whether Lu Ziyi could be released from the cold storage depended entirely on their uncle.
Ye Baiyu was Ye Jiuli’s uncle, an elder in the Ye family, but he was only nine years older than him, about the age of a brother.
However, the Ye family had a strict patriarchal system with clear generational ranks, and Ye Baiyu was the President of Maoshen Group, the economic lifeline of the Ye family, giving him a high status.
His uncle had been very good to him since he was young, and Ye Jiuli deeply respected and admired his uncle.
Ye Baiyu’s gaze swept over Xiaoxiao. His expression was outwardly calm, but inwardly he sighed, no wonder Jiuli was so angry. Ziyi was a bit too much.
Ye Baiyu said kindly, “Jiuli, you’ve had a hard journey!”
It had been quite hard, and very upsetting!
