"Mr. Ye, then I'll take the liberty of using this place to explain the specific content of this document to you," said Wang Guicheng respectfully, already considering himself as a subordinate.
"Good," nodded Yè Yùwǎn.
Wang Guicheng turned to Ye Jianzhong, "Family Head Ye, may I borrow your reception room for a moment?"
"Of course, of course!" Ye Jianzhong quickly nodded his head, then turned to the other members of the Ye Family, "Let's go out for now and not disturb Manager Wang and the rest."
The members of the Ye Family glanced at Yè Yùwǎn, then left the reception room.
Outside the room, Ye Qiongbo turned to his son Ye Jianzhong: "This girl Yè Yùwǎn is truly talented and worth nurturing. How about we keep her on our side? With her as the president of Yi Chen, she's bound to be of great help to our Ye Family!"
Ye Jianzhong frowned but didn't speak.
"Family Head, that's not right!"
"Family Head, she's a vixen, a big celebrity. Who knows what sort of means she used to become the president of Yi Chen!"
"Exactly, she must have sold herself!"
"Indeed, didn't Jian Chang say that even in Jinhai, she climbed her way up by selling her body?"
The members of the Ye Family voiced their opposition one after another, their eyes glowing with jealousy for Yè Yùwǎn's position.
Ye Jianzhong spoke gravely, "Dad, it's probably not Yè Yùwǎn's credit that got her there, rather Yi Chen Company wants to develop a deep partnership with our Ye Family. They realized that kicking Jian Chang and the others out last time was a mistake but were too embarrassed to apologize. That's why they made Yè Yùwǎn the president during her second visit."
Ye Qiongbo was taken aback and wanted to say something.
However, Ye Jianzhong continued with a gesture, "Moreover, the most critical point is why they chose Yè Yùwǎn. Is it because she's beautiful? Because she's a star? No, those are not the qualifications for a president! Could the decision-makers at Yi Chen, a company with such large investments, be fools? Impossible!
The only possibility is that Yè Yùwǎn is a woman, and furthermore, a woman not related by blood to the Ye Family. Once they control such a woman, their company can control the Ye Family through Yè Yùwǎn!"
Ye Qiongbo gasped—his son's words made a lot of sense.
Ye Jianchang hurriedly spoke out, "Yes, it must be so. Family Head, we can't let Yè Yùwǎn get such an opportunity. She would go to any lengths for power. If she gains authority, our Ye Family's main house could fall into the hands of this sinister woman!"
He absolutely did not want to see Yè Yùwǎn being valued. She knew the dealings of him and his father. If Yè Yùwǎn became important, he and his father would definitely suffer. They might even be driven out again!
"Exactly! Our Ye Family cannot be controlled by a woman, or it would be dangerous!"
The other members of the Ye Family shouted in agreement.
The former Family Head pondered for a moment, then declared with a wave of his hand, "Indeed, how can we allow a woman to control the main house? Absolutely not! But... the position of the Yi Chen president is very important. Are we to just forsake it?"
The members of the Ye Family fell silent.
Surely they could not pass up such a good opportunity, but it definitely couldn't fall into Yè Yùwǎn's hands!
As everyone remained silent, Ye Jianchang and his son exchanged glances.
"Family Head, I am Yè Yùwǎn's father, and Tian Ming is her brother. We are now homeless, and we are also vulnerable. We can go to Yi Chen and explain this, letting them believe they can control us for their purposes.
But... our loyalty lies entirely with the Ye Family!
We are willing to swear allegiance to the Ye Family, never to betray, only to strive for the interests of the Ye Family!"
"Please have Tian Ming take Yu Wan's place. Publicly, we can say that Yu Wan, being a girl and a celebrity, is not fit to handle the position of CEO within the company, so it's better for her brother to take over. This way, Yi Chen Investment will also have a pretext, killing two birds with one stone!"
"What do you two think?"
Having said that, Ye Jianchang looked at Ye Qiongbo and Ye Jianzhong with a face full of expectation, almost ready to kneel.
"Family Head, Dad, this could work! After all, Jianchang and his people are definitely on our side, plus they were driven out by the Jinhai Ye Family, which is a fact, and can be used as a sign of weakness to win Yi Chen's trust. Plus, Tian Ming is Yè Yùwǎn's brother, Yi Chen Company would definitely agree!" Ye Jianfeng chimed in with his support again.
Ye Jianzhong glanced at Ye Jianchang and nodded slightly, "I think it's doable."
"Hmm, let Tian Ming go," Ye Qiongbo also nodded in agreement.
"Yes, yes, yes, it's appropriate for Tian Ming to go!"
"Right, it's much more suitable for Tian Ming to go than for Yè Yùwǎn!"
"Exactly, Yè Yùwǎn doesn't carry our Ye Family's bloodline and shouldn't hold an important position!"
Though the rest of the Ye Family were envious, since Ye Qiongbo and Ye Jianzhong had agreed, they had to follow suit.
After discussing, they waited at the door of the reception room.
Soon after, the door of the reception room opened, and Wang Guicheng along with Yè Yùwǎn exited.
"Manager Wang, have a safe trip!" Ye Jianzhong and the others sent off Wang Guicheng with smiling faces.
Yè Yùwǎn chuckled and looked at Ye Jianzhong, "Family Head, about the Ye Family's multi-million investment gift package..."
"You don't need to worry about the multi-million investment gift package, Tian Ming will take care of it!" Ye Jianzhong interjected before Yè Yùwǎn could finish speaking.
Yè Yùwǎn was stunned for a moment, glanced at Yè Tiānmíng, and asked with a frown, "Why?"
Ye Jianchang immediately jumped out, pointing at Yè Yùwǎn's nose and scolded, "What do you mean 'why'? How dare you, a foster daughter, dream of leveraging our Ye Family's reputation to become CEO at Yi Chen? Wishful thinking!"
Yè Tiānmíng snatched the appointment contract from Yè Yùwǎn's hand and said coldly, "A woman like you, shameless and only climbing up by scheming, doesn't deserve to represent our Ye Family!"
"Exactly, get lost!"
"Right, beat it, go back to Jinhai!"
"The one in charge of the Jinhai Ye Family will be taken down soon enough!"
The members of the Ye Family took turns berating her.
"You... you all..."
Yè Yùwǎn, tears nearly bursting forth, glared fiercely at Yè Tiānmíng before turning to walk toward the Ye Family's main gate.
Suddenly, Ye Jianchang shouted, "No, we can't let her go; what if she runs off to cause trouble at Yi Chen? Lock her up now!"
Yè Yùwǎn turned her head and glared at Ye Jianchang, yelling back, "I don't need to make trouble, Yi Chen won't use Yè Tiānmíng, and apart from me, Yi Chen won't take any of you!"
"Nonsense!" Ye Jianchang bellowed, pointing at Yè Yùwǎn, "You think your position, achieved through your body, is secure? Let me tell you, all men are the same; once they're done with you, they'll disown you. How can a woman like you contend with a fortune worth tens of billions?"
On hearing this, the others nodded in agreement—they were all that kind of man.
Yè Yùwǎn, in her shame and anger, had a crimson face and clenched fists, unable to utter a single word.
Ye Jianchang then turned to Ye Jianzhong, "Family Head, lock her up to prevent any trouble!"
