Chapter 517: Chapter 517

"With the Jin Family interfering, even mom and dad are powerless now, Yingying, you always cause trouble, no matter what mom and dad say, you never listen, and now you’ve even risked your life." ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novelꜰire.net

Hearing her mother speak , despair welled up on Ye Ying’s face, "If the Tao Family doesn’t agree to a settlement, are you really going to abandon me?"

Father Ye replied, "It’s not that we’re not saving you, it’s that we can’t. They’re not interested in money and won’t budge; mom and dad are out of options. You brought this upon yourself, bear the consequences yourself."

Ye Ying collapsed to the ground, her gaze vacant. Seeing this, Ye Mu cried out in distress, "Yingying..."

Ye Mu cried all the way home, and upon seeing Ye Zheng and Shi Xiaotian, she first interrogated, "Shi Xiaotian, are you Tao Yunfei’s girlfriend?"

Shi Xiaotian knew it must have been Ye Ying who had spoken, so she tacitly acknowledged it.

"What’s your intention in getting close to my son?" Ye Mu asked harshly.

"I didn’t intentionally get close to him," Shi Xiaotian quickly responded, "It was only when I demanded responsibility from him that I found out he was Ye Ying’s brother. I hadn’t met him before, it’s a coincidence."

"Old foxes, one and all, don’t play ghost stories with me, a coincidence?" Ye Mu didn’t believe a word, "Now that you’re married to my son, let me tell you, if you harm our Ye Family or him in any slightest way, just wait and see."

"Mom, I wouldn’t dare. My mind is all on Ye Zheng now."

But the expression on Ye Zheng’s face darkened completely. Thinking of Tao Yunfei’s past women and the fact that Tao Yunfei had assaulted his own sister, and that his sister was going to be sentenced to death because of him, he suddenly felt repulsed by Shi Xiaotian.

Just as he felt repulsed seeing Ye Yan walk in from the outside at that moment.

"Dad, I have a way to make the Tao Family drop the case against Ye Ying. Although she violated criminal laws, there’s still a way to get her out."

Ye Yan’s words sent Ye Mu and Father Ye into an ecstasy, but Ye Zheng questioned, "They firmly refuse to settle, what can you possibly do?"

"Rich people need to play rich people’s games. I do have a way, but I won’t do it for free," Ye Yan said with one hand in his pocket, looking at his father, "I want all your shares, Dad. If you agree, leave Ye Ying’s case to me, and I’ll make sure she’s safe and sound."

It was like exchanging the entire family fortune for Ye Ying’s life.

Everyone was shocked.

"What are you thinking, asking for such an outrageous price!" Ye Zheng became furious immediately.

Ye Mu felt as if her heart was being cut out. Of course, she didn’t want Ye Ying to die; that was her own flesh and blood, but she was very reluctant to hand over the family business to Ye Yan.

But Father Ye was calm because he was very clear about Ye Yan’s capabilities, as well as the capabilities of his other son, who simply couldn’t compare. When the time came for him to retire, if he didn’t want the business to be squandered, it definitely had to be managed by Ye Yan.

It was just a matter of sooner or later.

He turned to Ye Mu, "Do you agree? If you do, we’ll do as he says, if not, then let’s pretend Ye Yan never said it."

It was time for Ye Mu to make a decision. Her husband’s words meant that if she agreed, the family business would be handed to Ye Yan, and she would have no right to voice any complaints in the future.

Ye Mu thought for nearly two minutes, "People are more important than money, I agree. As long as you can guarantee Ye Ying is safely released, we will do as you say."

Ye Zheng was frantic, "Mom!"

"Shut up!" Ye Mu glared at him, "If you had shown some capability, would it have come to this?"
