Chapter 237 Disappearance Again
Du Qing's words were like a thunderbolt, striking Ye Tianya's mind blankly. The badminton court in his hand fell to the ground with a thud, hitting his foot before he reacted. He turned around and stared blankly at Yin Huanchao: "Hair? The one Auntie plucked?"

Yin Chao saw that Ye Tianya's eyes were a little red and thought he was about to get angry again. After all, he had done all these things behind his back. Yin Chao nodded timidly and said, "Yes—"

Ye Tianya did not get angry, nor did he make much of a fuss. He looked around and realized that everyone in the living room had gathered around him, even Ye Yingjie's driver, Xiao Gao. Ye Tianya suddenly laughed, laughing until everyone was confused before he said, "This joke is truly the funniest joke I've ever heard since I was a child, a huge joke." After laughing, Ye Tianya

smiled calmly at Ye Yingjie and Du Wei and the others, "Chairman Ye, President Du, I'm sorry, Tianya lost his composure. Tianya has some important matters to attend to, please excuse me."

After saying that, Ye Tianya turned around and ran out of the villa without looking back.

Ye Yingjie: "Tianya—"

Yin Chao: "Boss—"

Fang Xinyi: "Kid—"

Du Wei: "Little Ye—"

Xiao Gao: "Young Master—"

Ye Tianya left behind a group of shouts and disappeared through the door. When everyone chased after him to the door, Ye Tianya was already gone. Everyone sighed helplessly. Ye Yingjie glanced at Du Qing, his mouth moved, but he didn't say anything. He turned around and headed back to the villa. All his plans for today had been ruined by Du Wei and his daughter. He had originally planned to build a good relationship with Ye Tianya first, but Du Wei had brought up the topic as soon as he came in. Then Du Qing followed Ye Tianya and Yin Chao to the badminton court. When they faintly heard Ye Tianya and Yin Chao arguing outside, Du Qing had already revealed the DNA test. Ye Yingjie was a smart man. He knew what the father and daughter were up to after a little thought. But they were old friends for many years, so Ye Yingjie couldn't blame Du Qing and Du Wei.

No one expected the banquet to end like this. Everyone could only sigh, but Fang Xinyi collapsed into Ye Yingjie's arms, sobbing. This left Madam Yin feeling extremely uneasy. She comforted him, saying, "Madam Ye, don't be too pessimistic. It's better to be direct like this. Tianya is a sensible child; it's just that this news came too suddenly, and he can't accept it right away. Give him some time to think it over, and we'll go back and talk to him properly.

" Ye Yingjie gratefully said to Madam Yin, "Sister-in-law Yin, thank you so much. Thank you for all your hard work for our family. I really don't know how to thank you enough." Madam Yin

smiled and said, "It's nothing. Xiao Ye has always been very filial to me, and he's like a brother to Yin Chao. We're just helping him, hoping he can reunite with his family soon." "There are some things you don't know yet, and that's about Xingye... Sigh, we can't say this, but Xingye's amnesia has greatly impacted Xiaoye, and because of this, he doesn't trust even his own parents. Tonight, Xiaochao and I are going to see Xingye, who has just regained her memory. Xiaoye is Xiaoye's lifeline, and at this time, only Xiaoye can persuade Xiaoye."

"Xingye has regained her memory?" Du Qing asked in surprise.

Yin Chao said indifferently, "Yes, thanks to Miss Du, Xingye was triggered to remember her past after seeing Miss Du."

"Then let's go now, let's go see Xingye and ask her for help." Ye Yingjie said impatiently.

Yin's mother said somewhat awkwardly, "This... the place where Xingye will stay... We can't take you there without Xiaoye's permission, and if you go to disturb Xiaoye at this time, I'm afraid she will be even angrier. Let us go instead, Chairman Ye, don't worry, we will do our best." "

Ye Yingjie had no choice but to thank Yin's mother profusely. But when Yin's mother and Yin Chao rushed to the ends of the earth, Ye Tianya was gone, Xingye was gone, Bing Shuang and Bing Xue were gone too. No one knew where they had gone. Even Yang Meng, after returning from grocery shopping, only received a few notes left for everyone at the ends of the earth.

"Ye's note didn't say where he went, or how long he would be gone?" Yin's mother asked Yang Meng anxiously.

Yang Meng pulled out all the notes and said, "No, Mr. Ye only said that he had something to do and was leaving with Miss Xiaoye and Miss Bing Shuang and Miss Bing Xue for a while, but he didn't say how long he

would be gone or where he was going." "Xiao Chao, do you know where Ye went?" Yin's mother turned to ask Yin Chao beside her.

Yin Chao shook his head and said, "How would I know? Sister Meng, who was home when the eldest brother left?"

Yang Meng thought for a moment and said, "Wait, Miss Ruyan and the others are home. I'll go ask them." "

Yang Meng knocked on the door of Sima Ruyan's room, and soon four girls came out, each holding a note. Yin Chao could tell from their expressions that they didn't know either. Sure enough, the notes from the four girls said they had to leave and told them to take good care of their injuries.

After learning the whole story from Yin Chao, Sima Ruyan immediately dialed Xu Keming's number. She knew Xu Keming must be keeping an eye on Ye Tianya's whereabouts.

"What, Ye Tianya has disappeared again?" Xu Keming never dreamed that Ye Tianya would disappear under his surveillance again, and Xingye, Bingshuang, and Bingxue also disappeared at the same time. He had been monitoring Haijiao Tianya from afar, but Ye Tianya still disappeared, just like when he disappeared in the hospital last time. Ye Tianya seemed to have vanished into thin air.

When she learned that Xu Keming didn't know where Ye Tianya had gone, Sima Ruyan could only shake her head helplessly: "Let's wait. The captain probably went somewhere to relax. Now we can only wait for him to come back when he's in a better mood." "No one can find him unless he comes back on his own."

Sima Ruyan felt a pang of sadness. If it weren't for the fact that the four of them hadn't recovered yet, Ye Tianya might have taken them away too. Sima Ruyan comforted herself.

Not long after, Lin Siyin, Li Lanyu, and Yang Ying returned from work. When they saw the note Yang Meng had given them, Li Lanyu angrily tore it to shreds, cursing without any ladylike composure: "That irresponsible guy! He dumped all the work on us and ran off to have some fun!" "

But after hearing Yin's mother's account, they all fell silent. They could all imagine how conflicted Ye Tianya was at that moment. Finding a quiet place and not bringing his emotions to everyone was the most rational choice he could make.

The incident, Ye Tianya's departure, didn't cause much of an impact. The Haijiao Tianya project continued, and the work of Qingfeng Group and Xueya Shuangye proceeded normally under the leadership of Luo Wenjun and Gu Letian. If there was any impact, it was that Haijiao Tianya became lifeless due to Ye Tianya Xingye and Bing Shuang Bingxue's departure. Another group affected was, of course, Ye Yingjie's family and Du Wei's family. Ye Tianya's sudden disappearance was absolutely terrible news for Du Wei. His attempt to influence Xueya Shuangye to reinvest in him through Ye Tianya had failed. He had to endure the pressure and high conditions from other investment companies.

However, the most..." Ultimately, he still couldn't find a suitable partner because, given the conditions proposed by those investors, Dewey would rather abandon the LCD project altogether.

When Ye Tianya withdrew from his investment in Boshi, and then the Fang family followed suit, word quickly spread among industry insiders. Ye Tianya's investment acumen was practically legendary in S City's investment circles; projects he didn't invest in required serious consideration from others. With the Fang family from B City also withdrawing their investment in Boshi, investors were forced to conduct even more thorough investigations. This is why the investors Dewey later sought were pushing their terms so high. These investors hadn't yet figured out why Ye Tianya wouldn't invest, or why the Fang family would abandon their investment. But they saw the high profits of the Boshi LCD project and were reluctant to give it up, so they demanded exorbitant terms to minimize losses even if the investment failed. This left Dewey in a very difficult situation.

Yin Chao didn't know that Ye Tianya was Ye Xin, so he was unaware of the past events between Ye Tianya and Du Wei and Du Qing. Therefore, when Ye Yingjie told him about Du Wei's predicament, Yin Chao immediately saw the potential profit. Ye Tianya hadn't invested in Boshi initially because he disliked both Fang Hua and Du Wei. However, this didn't mean the investment wouldn't yield substantial profits. Yin Chao saw the potential, and upon learning of Du Wei's predicament from Ye Yingjie, out of respect for Ye Yingjie as Ye Tianya's biological father, he stepped in to reconnect Du Wei with Xueya Shuangye. Although Yin Chao had left Xueya Shuangye, he still wielded considerable influence within the company. On the other hand, although Ye Tianya had abandoned his investment in Boshi, and although the investment was substantial—so large that other investors in S City were hesitant to participate—he still managed to secure a deal. Gu Letian was also aware that this investment in Boshi would be very profitable. When Yin Chao met with him, Gu Letian had considered whether the missing Ye Tianya would agree and recounted Ye Tianya's confrontation with Fang Hua.

Yin Chao immediately patted his chest and assured him, "President Gu, the boss was only angered by Fang Hua and Du Wei's actions back then. Now that Du Wei is in dire straits, you can lower the conditions further. As long as you don't push him too far, I'm sure Du Wei will agree. Isn't investment all about profit? The boss might act impulsively, but you probably won't."

Gu Letian was somewhat reluctant for Ye Tianya to give up on Boshi, but he was also very dissatisfied with Du Wei's actions last time, which was why he hadn't tried to persuade Ye Tianya. Now that Du Wei had been forced to return to Xueya Shuangye, Xueya Shuangye would naturally take the lead at the negotiating table. What else could they do but make such an investment?

Gu Letian was persuaded by Yin Chao, but only on the condition that Yin Chao promised Gu Letian that if Ye Tianya returned to pursue the matter, Yin Chao would bear all the responsibility.

Although Xueya Shuangye had negotiated many more conditions than before with Du Wei, they were still much more generous than those offered by other investment companies. Although Du Wei regretted everything, without further investment, the LCD project would fall through, and all his previous efforts would be in vain. Xueya Shuangye had agreed to reinvest and hadn't pushed him too hard, allowing him to profit as well. This was enough to make him ecstatic.
Chapter 238 Valley Scenery
After Bing Shuang and Xing Ye left, the management of Haijiao Tianya fell to Lin Siyin. Lin Siyin's natural leadership skills gave her great prestige in Haijiao Tianya. As the CEO of a world-renowned real estate company, even the usually confident Sima Ruyan respected her greatly. On the other hand, the person most suited to coordinate things at Haijiao Tianya should be Yang Ying, as her sister-in-law. However, she lacks management skills and, having worked under Lin Siyin for so long, is used to her instructions and cannot shoulder the responsibilities of a manager at Haijiao Tianya. She lacks decisiveness.

Lin Siyin took over the task of recruiting people at the labor market assigned by Ye Tianya. She personally hired four capable maids and a part-time gardener to tend the garden twice a week. However, when Lin Siyin returned to Haijiao Tianya with the five people, they were intercepted by Xu Keming on the way. Xu Keming took the five recruits to some place and, after half a day of investigation and 'secrecy training,' allowed Lin Siyin to bring them into Haijiao Tianya. Lin Siyin knew Xu Keming had a special identity; he had been Ye Tianya's bodyguard. Although Ye Tianya had expelled him from Haijiao Tianya, Lin Siyin knew he had been secretly 'protecting' Ye Tianya all along. Furthermore, he had been with Old Han when Old Han visited last time. Lin Siyin knew Xu Keming was a government official, so she didn't stop him from 'training' the maids.

At the end, Xu Keming joked with Lin Siyin, "President Lin, you don't need to choose such beautiful maids."

Li Lanyu chimed in, "Haven't you heard of birds of a feather flock together? Haven't you seen how beautiful everyone at the End of the World is? It's your fault for going against that kid. Otherwise, you could live at the End of the World and get to know our four newly recruited beauties."

Even Ye Tianya was outshone by Li Lanyu, so Xu Keming, that blockhead, was even more easily defeated, immediately blushing deeply.

The gardener was a part-time worker and didn't need to live at the End of the World. The four maids were both excited and nervous about finally working there. They were excited because the End of the World, which they had only seen on TV, was actually their future workplace, and they could even live there—something many people envied. What made them nervous was that the man surnamed Xu had just "trained" them by reading through all the information about their entire family, including their personal habits, social circles, and even minor transgressions. He also emphasized the importance of "secrecy," specifically what could and couldn't be said after leaving the "End of the Earth" villa, warning that violations would be considered leaking state secrets. However, amidst the tension, they felt a sense of pride that the seemingly imposing young man who had "trained" them hadn't dared to enter the villa. This made them realize that the person living inside must be very "special" and even more "powerful."

But once inside, they discovered that the villa was entirely inhabited by women, each more beautiful than the last. They were assigned to the first floor of the villa, the lowest level besides the basement, but compared to the stairwells or storage rooms they used to live in at work, it was like a five-star hotel. The four girls even had their own spacious private room. This prompted them to high-five and cheer after Yang Meng arranged their rooms and took them upstairs.

Under Yang Meng's guidance, they gradually integrated into the daily work at Haijiao Tianya, cleaning rooms, gardening, cooking, and laundry—simple tasks. Within a few days, they learned that the woman who recruited them was a billionaire, the renowned general manager of Tianya Real Estate. They also learned that the other four girls, recuperating, spent their days gazing at the Haijiao Tianya gate in the garden, waiting for someone they had always been waiting for—the owner of Haijiao Tianya, the one who lived in the restricted area on the third floor, a place they were never allowed to go. As

the days passed, they watched the woman called "Sister-in-law" and the other two women, called "Sister Yu" and "Sister Siyin," work long hours, watched the four girls recover day by day, watched them go to Huaxia University—a place they had never dared to dream of when they were in school—and watched them return from class. But they also clearly saw the growing longing in their eyes. They knew the four girls were thinking of that person. They were thinking about the man they should call "boss." They didn't know what he looked like, but they knew he was young because the only little girl in the village called him "uncle" every day. They began to hope that one day he would appear at the entrance of the village, so they could see what he was like.

But he didn't appear, and time passed day by day, the weather getting colder and colder, until the women of the village started wearing down jackets. To their utter surprise, the housekeeper, Yang Meng, actually gave each of them a down jacket. This moved them deeply. It was a pity they couldn't use the village's phone to make calls, otherwise they would have immediately reported this touching news home.

Miss Ruyan and Miss Piaoxue left for class in the car waiting at the door. Miss Lin, Miss Li, and Miss Yang also drove out to work. Little Princess Beibei came downstairs again, her rosy cheeks adorned with a pure white down jacket, and her bright, sparkling eyes. The two little white bows on her head made her look exceptionally cute, and everyone who saw her had the urge to pick her up and kiss her. As usual, she would stand on the lawn in front of the villa every day and call out in her childish voice, "Uncle, come home quickly, it's almost New Year's."

After calling out, she would pretend to be an adult and walk back and forth several times with her hands behind her back, muttering something. Then she would turn around and call out to the maid who was sweeping the garden, "Sister Xiaoqiu, can you help me move my electric scooter out?"

Xiaoqiu was one of the new maids Lin Siyin hired after Ye Tianya disappeared. She was also the most clever and capable one. She lived on the first floor with three other maids. Her room was closest to the gym, so she became the designated person to move Beibei's electric scooter out of the gym every day.

"Miss Beibei, it's so cold today, are you still going to ride your bike?" Xiaoqiu asked with concern after bringing out Beibei's electric bike.

Beibei, while mounting the bike, replied, "Won't it get warmer after a couple of laps? Aunt Qian'er says that exercise is good for your health. Look how healthy I am, I never get sick."

Xiaoqiu was amused by Beibei's mature demeanor. Just then, Yang Meng came downstairs and, seeing Beibei on the bike, said, "Beibei, the ground is slippery today, ride slowly and be careful not to fall."

"Okay, Aunt Meng." Ye Beibei pedaled her bike along the path and rode off. Yang Meng turned to Xiao Qiu and said, "Xiao Qiu, you stay home and watch Beibei. This girl is always thinking about going to see her uncle. Don't let her go out. Go call Xiao Lan out; she's coming with me to the market to buy groceries."

Xiao Qiu obediently agreed and went to call out Xiao Lan, another maid who had gone to the ends of the earth with her, who was cleaning in the gym. After watching her and Yang Meng leave, she continued cleaning the garden while watching Ye Beibei riding her bike. In

Tianya Valley,

where spring reigns all year round, there is no cold. In the pavilion of the Water Palace, Xingye nestled against Ye Tianya, her eyes slightly closed, comfortably enjoying the melodious music. The music was played on two white jade zithers in front of Bing Shuang and Bing Xue in the pavilion. It had been almost two months since Ye Tianya returned to Tianya Valley, and he hadn't brought up the matter of going there. Every day, he played freely with the three girls in the valley, living a carefree life, forgetting all the troubles of the outside world, and enjoying life in the strings of the zither. This world belonged only to the four of them. No one would disturb them, and naturally, Du Qing, who had once abandoned their love, wouldn't suddenly appear, nor would their biological parents.

With the gentle Xingye in his arms and the understanding and talented Bing Shuang and Bing Xue by his side, Ye Tianya lived a very comfortable and happy life. Xingye was happy because he had forgotten all his troubles here, spending his days practicing martial arts with Bing Shuang and Bing Xue, cooking, or tending to their small, natural vegetable garden. Ye Tianya would often sit on the edge of the pavilion and try to catch a few fish from the lake that were always clumsy enough to take the bait. Gradually, he almost forgot that there was another world outside. Of course, he couldn't forget, because there were people who loved him waiting for him outside. There was Sima Ruyan, Nangong Qian'er, Ouyang Xin'er, and Murong Piaoxue.

The reason he hadn't mentioned going out since returning was for today. It was Xingye's birthday. Her last birthday party was organized by her parents, but her mother had driven away her lover at the party, and she hadn't had a truly happy day since. Today was Xingye's birthday again, and Ye Tianya didn't want to go out too early, so she could stay here and have a happy, carefree birthday. No gifts, no dance, to avoid reminding Xingye of painful memories.

For Xingye's birthday, he had started feeding the big fish he caught in a wooden basin ten days ago, and even went hunting in the woods, bringing back several pheasants and rabbits. The fruit wine brewed from frost and snow was already fragrant, and Xingye happily enjoyed a pure, natural birthday feast. Although there was no cake or candles, Xingye shed tears of happiness, nestled gently against Ye Tianya's chest. Frost and Snow plucked the strings at the opportune moment, and a melodious and light tune flowed from their fingertips, captivating Ye Tianya and Xingye.
Chapter 239 Returning in the Snow
Ye Tianya had not forgotten that there was another world outside, nor had Frost and Snow, but they were unwilling to mention leaving the valley. They could sense that Ye Tianya and Xingye were significantly happier after returning to the valley than when they were living outside. They had forgotten the troubles and pain of the outside world. For Frost and Snow, nothing was more important than their husband's happiness. As long as Ye Tianya did not mention the valley, they would naturally not disturb his carefree state of mind.

Similarly, Xingye hadn't forgotten that there was another world outside, but she didn't want to leave. She wished she could stay in the valley for her entire life, living with her beloved brother and her loving sisters Shuang and Xue until old age. Here, she wouldn't have to face the world, wouldn't have to face those bitter memories, wouldn't have to face the business war her mother and the Mo family were going to wage against her beloved brother. But she knew that staying was impossible, because outside there was her brother's business, and his lover and friends. She had thought about suggesting leaving the valley sooner, but seeing her brother's rare happy smile, she hesitated. She knew that her brother had returned to Tianya Valley because he didn't know how to face his biological parents. She herself was also wary of such things because of her own experiences. She couldn't offer Ye Tianya any advice, so she chose to remain silent, thinking to herself, "I'll just wait it out."

In Tianya Valley, Ye Tianya and Xingye's only way of knowing about the outside world was through the magical computer, Lisi. Time passed day by day, and the time in the lower right corner of Lisi's screen was already February. According to the lunar calendar, the New Year was approaching, and the pictures on the webpages showed red lanterns hanging everywhere. Xingye hesitated again and again, but finally decided to remind Ye Tianya that it was time to leave the valley. There were people waiting for him outside, and he had responsibilities to bear. He couldn't be too selfish and only think of himself.

"Brother, the New Year is coming soon. What gift should we prepare for Beibei?" Lying in Ye Tianya's arms, Xingye indirectly brought up the idea of leaving the valley. It was his responsibility to remind Ye Tianya that Yang Ying and Beibei were his responsibility; he still had to go out and take care of them. Besides, there were other girls like Sima Ruyan waiting for him outside.

Ye Tianya's smile froze for a moment. He sighed and stroked Xingye's long hair, saying, "Yes, it's been over two months, almost New Year's. We... it's time to go out. Hehe, I'm almost forgetting about home." Ye Tianya smiled and gently kissed Xingye. Xingye blushed slightly and said reproachfully, "Brother, you're so naughty! It's fine if you're forgetting about home, but Sister Ruyan and the others are missing you every day."

"You little brat, teasing your brother? I'll teach you a lesson." Ye Tianya laughed and tickled Xingye under her armpits. The two immediately started playfully fighting. Bing Shuang and Bing Xue came in and saw the two of them fooling around. They smiled and said, "Husband, are we going hunting again today?" Ye Tianya

smiled and said, "No, Shuang'er, get ready, let's go out of the valley. It's almost New Year's outside, let's go out and celebrate a reunion with everyone." Bing

Shuang and Bing Xue were slightly taken aback, then their faces lit up with joy as they smiled at each other and happily went out to get ready. Their husbands had suggested leaving, indicating they had let go of many things and found solutions to many problems. The two women were naturally very happy. Sima Ruyan, Nangong Qian'er, and others had already started

their

winter vacation, but they hadn't gone home. They stayed at Haijiao Tianya, waiting for Ye Tianya. More than two months had passed since Ye Tianya left, but they knew he would definitely return, at least for the New Year.

As usual, Beibei stood at the villa entrance calling out, "Uncle, it's New Year's! Come home quickly!"

After calling, she paced back and forth twice with her hands behind her back. This time, Xiao Qiu finally heard her clearly and muttered, "Aunt Qian misses you, Aunt Ruyan misses you, Aunt Xin'er misses you, Aunt Piaoxue misses you, Aunt Lin misses you, Aunt Yu misses you, Beibei misses you..."

Xiao Qiu was speechless, wanting to laugh but finding herself unable to. Without needing Beibei to call her again, she went to the gym to retrieve Ye Beibei's electric scooter. It was placed in front of the villa steps.

But tonight, Beibei didn't ride it. Instead, she put her hands behind her back, looked up at the sky , and said, "Sister Xiaoqiu, do you miss home?"

Xiaoqiu was taken aback. This five-year-old girl actually asked such a question. She was a little surprised, but she still didn't dare not answer this little princess from the ends of the earth, so she replied, "Yes, I do. Who doesn't miss home when the New Year is coming?"

Beibei lowered her head and walked back and forth a few steps, saying, "But why doesn't Uncle miss home? It's been eighty-seven days. Uncle has been gone for eighty-seven days."

Xiaoqiu was somewhat moved and said, "Maybe your uncle is held up by something. If he knew that Miss Beibei misses him so much every day, he would definitely come back soon. The ground is wet today. Are you still riding your bike?"

Beibei tilted her little head, glanced at the electric scooter, and shook her head, saying, "I'm not riding it today. The TV said it will snow today, and Uncle will definitely come back when it snows. Uncle likes white the most, and snow is white, so Uncle will definitely come back to see the snow. I'll wait for Uncle at the gate."

"No...no, Miss Beibei, it's cold outside. You should wait at home. If you catch a cold, we'll get scolded," Xiaoqiu quickly stopped Beibei.

Beibei didn't care about Xiaoqiu getting scolded. Seeing her blocking her way, she turned around, got on the electric scooter, and sped off. Xiaoqiu chased after her, but she couldn't keep up with the scooter's speed. She could only run after her from a distance. By the time she reached the gate of Haijiao Tianya and caught up with Beibei, who was already parked there, she was panting heavily.

"Let's go home, my dear, it's cold here," Xiaoqiu pleaded.

Beibei completely ignored her, pretending not to hear, and paced back and forth at the gate with her hands behind her back. Xiaoqiu had no choice but to stand there and keep her company, preventing Beibei from leaving Haijiao Tianya.

No one knows how many times Beibei walked back and forth, when suddenly, a snowflake drifted down from the gloomy sky, followed by a second, a third…

“It’s snowing, it’s snowing, white snow! Uncle is coming back, Uncle is coming back…” Seeing the snowflakes, Beibei cheered and jumped up, reaching out to catch them.

As Beibei turned around and jumped to catch the snowflakes, four white figures appeared at the gate. Leading them was a boy dressed in white, with a pure and lovely girl in white standing beside him. Behind them stood two identical celestial beauties. Xiaoqiu, facing the gate, saw them appear, but Beibei, with her back to the gate and busy catching snowflakes, didn’t notice. Xiaoqiu politely asked, “Excuse me… who are you looking for?”

Only then did Beibei realize there were people at the gate behind her and turned around abruptly.

“Uncle—Auntie—”

Beibei didn’t care about the snowflakes anymore and rushed towards the boy in white at the gate.

Xiao Qiu immediately guessed that this young man was the one Bei Bei had been waiting for for over two months, and also the one everyone in Haijiao Tianya had been waiting for for over two months—the true master of Haijiao Tianya. Although she had long suspected that this person must be young, she hadn't expected him to be this young. Moreover, she realized that there were such handsome men and such beautiful women behind them in this world. For a moment, she was stunned.

"Bei Bei, did you miss your uncle?" The young man picked up Bei Bei, who had rushed towards him, and asked with a smile, pulling Xiao Qiu back to reality.

"Yes, Bei Bei misses your uncle every day. But Aunt Ruyan and Aunt Qian miss him too. Uncle, did you receive the letters Bei Bei sends you every day?" Bei Bei asked earnestly.

"Letters?" Ye Tianya asked doubtfully.

"Mommy said that if Bei Bei has anything she wants to say to your uncle, she should stand where the wind is and say it, and Sister Breeze will carry the letter to your uncle. Didn't your uncle receive it?" Ye Bei Bei asked seriously.

Ye Tianya paused for a moment, then laughed and said, "Yes, yes, I received Beibei's letter, that's why I rushed back. Are your Aunt Zhang Qian'er and the others home?" Zhang

Beibei was picked up by Ye Tianya and nestled on his shoulder, saying, "Yes, Aunt Qian'er and the others are home. Mom, Aunt Lin, and Aunt Yu went to work. Aunt Meng went shopping..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Tianya couldn't wait to carry Beibei inside. Suddenly, he noticed Xiao Qiu, who was standing to the side in a daze, and asked, "You must be Sister Meng's new worker, right? What's your name?"

Xiao Qiu hurriedly and nervously replied, "My name is Chang Qiu. The boss can just call me Xiao Qiu."

"Boss?!" It took Ye Tianya a while to realize that the "boss" she was referring to was him. He smiled slightly and said, "My name is Ye Tianya. Don't call me 'boss' anymore, it sounds strange. Close the door, we'll talk about it when we get back."

Xiao Qiu nodded hurriedly and went to close the door. Ye Tianya carried Bei Bei back to the villa quickly. As soon as they entered the living room, Bei Bei shouted loudly, "Aunt Qian, Aunt Ru Yan, Aunt Xin'er, Aunt Piao Xue, Uncle is home!"

Before her shout had even faded, the sound of four doors opening came from the room, and then four long-lost beauties rushed out. The four women were so rushed that they almost bumped into each other. After coming out, they all stood in front of Ye Tianya, tears glistening in their eyes, their longing undisguised.

Ye Tianya gently put Bei Bei down and, under the surprised gazes of the two maids who were tidying up the living room, slowly walked towards Nangong Qian'er, who was running ahead. He gently reached out and stroked her pretty face, which was flushed with excitement.

"Captain—" Before Ye Tianya's hand could even touch Nangong Qian'er, she cried out and threw herself into his arms, sobbing.

Her crying was no small matter; the three girls behind her finally couldn't hold back their tears, which streamed down their faces like broken pearls. Ye Tianya held Nangong Qian'er and reached out to wipe away the tears of the three girls behind him. Xingye, Bingshuang, and Bingxue stood quietly by, watching Ye Tianya hug and comfort each of them, their faces beaming with smiles, showing no sign of displeasure.
Chapter 240 Siyin's Confession
The two maids cleaning the living room and Xiao Qiu, who had followed them in, had never seen such a scene before. Four girls! Four such beautiful girls, all of them…

Although the boss was indeed very handsome, it didn't have to be like this. The three new girls looked at each other, seemingly unable to believe what they were seeing. However, they quickly snapped back to reality, remembering the words of the imposing giant who dared not venture to the ends of the earth: "Whatever you see or hear, pretend it never happened. Just do your jobs. If you leak even a single word, you'll be treated as leaking state secrets."

Xiao Qiu, being the quick-witted one, immediately signaled to her two companions to quietly slip out of the living room and hide in the kitchen, pretending to cook. Inside, however, they muttered to themselves as if they'd seen a magic trick. It's no wonder the three girls were astonished. Previously so confident at school, they now understood what true beauty was. Those two identical girls in white—that was real beauty, a beauty they'd never seen before that left the three girls feeling utterly bewildered. This place, the ends of the earth, was shrouded in mystery; no wonder the imposing giant had emphasized secrecy so much.

Ye Tianya finally managed to stop the four girls' tears. After greeting them, Bing Shuang, Bing Xue, and Xing Ye went up to the third floor, leaving the four girls alone to pour out their longing. Seeing the girls' red eyes, Ye Tianya felt a pang of pity. He pulled Nangong Qian'er and Ouyang Xin'er, who were closest to him, into his arms. It was the first time Ye Tianya had held two of them in his arms at the same time. Both girls were a little uncomfortable, glancing at each other in Ye Tianya's arms, feeling shy, wanting to break free but also reluctant to leave his embrace. In the end, they obediently nestled against him and enjoyed the embrace.

Sima Ruyan, as the eldest of the four girls, naturally wouldn't compete with them for favor. As for Murong Piaoxue, she quickly reverted to her innocent and carefree nature, a smile soon blooming on her face. She went around to the back of the sofa, leaned on Ye Tianya's shoulder from behind, and laughed, "Captain, you left without taking us with you this time. Piaoxue is very angry, and the consequences will be severe. However, Piaoxue can't bear to punish you. As long as you tell us where you took Xiaoye and the others, I'll forgive you."

Ye Tianya was amused by her words, "Piaoxue is very angry, and the consequences will be severe." He laughed and said, "What if you refuse to comply, Captain? Isn't it said that confessing leads to leniency, rotting in jail, while resisting leads to severe punishment, and you can go home for the New Year? I've already gone home for the New Year, so naturally I have to resist to the end."

"Hmph, watch me use the Qing Dynasty's Ten Great Tortures - tickling - let's see if you confess!" Murong Piaoxue said, reaching her little hand under Ye Tianya's armpit to tickle him, but Ye Tianya grabbed her hand, turned around, and 'coincidentally' kissed her mischievous little mouth. Murong Piaoxue immediately made a big mess of her face, broke free from Ye Tianya's hand, and fled back to her room like a gust of wind. This was the first time Ye Tianya had kissed her in front of so many sisters. Although she was usually mischievous, she couldn't hold back her shyness in such a situation.

Nangong Qian'er and Ouyang Xin'er, nestled in Ye Tianya's arms, didn't see Ye Tianya's sneak attack on Murong Piaoxue, but Sima Ruyan saw it clearly. Sima Ruyan blushed and spat, "It's been months, and you... you've become more and more lecherous. Beibei is still here."

Before Sima Ruyan could finish speaking, Beibei immediately covered her eyes with her little hands, leaving a noticeable gap between her fingers, and cried out, "Beibei didn't see anything, didn't hear anything, I shouldn't have seen it..."

The little girl's actions made Ye Tianya and the other three burst into laughter. Nangong Qian'er and Sima Ruyan rolled around laughing in Ye Tianya's arms. With this little ray of sunshine causing such a ruckus, the atmosphere immediately became lively, sweeping away the initial oppressive feeling. Nangong Qian'er stood up from Ye Tianya's arms with a smile and said mischievously, "I'll go see what Piaoxue is doing in the room."

Ouyang Xin'er became interested as well, and the two of them immediately went to the room to tease the shy Murong Piaoxue. Bei Bei, the little girl, also followed to watch the fun, leaving only Sima Ruyan and Sima Ruyan in the living room. Ye Tianya's gaze suddenly became unusually gentle as he looked at Sima Ruyan and opened his arms, saying, "Ruyan, come here—"

Sima Ruyan blushed and hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she succumbed to Ye Tianya's gentle gaze and awkwardly approached him, sitting down next to him. Since it was the first time she had been embraced by him like this, she nestled in him somewhat shyly. Ye Tianya gently hugged her slightly stiff body and whispered, "Ruyan...?"

Sima Ruyan gradually relaxed, her stiff body softening as she pressed against Ye Tianya's chest, and softly responded, "Mmm..."

Ye Tianya gently lowered his head and followed... Sima Ruyan's face slid down, searching for her lips, and she gently called out, "Ruyan..."

Sima Ruyan sensed Ye Tianya's intention, feeling both happy and shy. She instinctively turned her head to let Ye Tianya touch her lips, but when he did, she couldn't help but tremble. The electric shock-like sensation made her turn away from him abruptly, her face flushed, and scolded, "You...you're getting more and more lewd!" After scolding him, she fled back to her room, just like Murong Piaoxue. Her blushing face made Ye Tianya laugh heartily.

He had spent two months quietly reflecting in Tianya Valley, allowing him to calmly consider everything, understand many things, and let go of many things. On the other hand, Xingye's 'memory recovery' greatly improved his mood. His mood returned to what it was like when he returned to Huaxia University after avenging himself and clearing his name in Lincheng, playfully bickering with Li Lanyu. He couldn't let down any of the girls who loved him at the ends of the earth, so naturally he adjusted his approach to interacting with them, which naturally made him a bit 'lustful' in Sima Ruyan's words.

Little did he know, the three girls in Murong Piaoxue's room were secretly delighted by Ye Tianya's changes, and Sima Ruyan was even more overjoyed, hugging her pillow and giggling to herself. If Ye Tianya knew their reactions, who knows what he would think.

The news of Ye Tianya's return reached Lin Siyin after Yang Meng returned from shopping. Lin Siyin immediately dropped everything she was doing and, along with Li Lanyu and Yang Ying, rushed to the ends of the earth. When Lin Siyin finally saw Ye Tianya in person, she suddenly lost control of her emotions. Tears streaming down her face, she threw herself into Ye Tianya's arms, tightly wrapping her arms around his neck and holding him close. For the past two months, she had not only been in charge of the "End of the Earth" project but also managing her family. Every night was filled with endless longing. But unlike Sima Ruyan and others, she couldn't express her longing. The suppressed feelings in her heart finally broke free at this moment.

Ye Tianya could clearly feel her trembling body. He couldn't help but reach out and gently wrap his arms around her waist.

"Tianya, promise me, from now on, whatever happens... we'll face it together... don't abandon us again... okay? The ends of the earth can't live without you, the company can't live without you, Ruyan and the others can't live without you... I... Xiaoyu and I can't live without you either." Lin Siyin couldn't control her emotions. She finally couldn't hold back and blurted out her true feelings. She could no longer endure the pain of suppressing her longing; her emotions burst forth like a tidal wave.

Ye Tianya wasn't oblivious to Lin Siyin's feelings for him, but he had always been running away because he had too many girls. Lin Siyin poured her heart into him, and he couldn't give her all the happiness. But this time, after reflecting for two months in Tianya Valley, Ye Tianya's thoughts had completely changed. He couldn't let down any of the women who loved him and sacrificed for him, and of course, he couldn't let down Lin Siyin either.

"Siyin, I promise you, I won't disappear again. Even if I have to leave, I'll take you with me. Don't cry, okay? Your sister-in-law is watching." Ye Tianya gently comforted Lin Siyin, indirectly promising her that 'even if I leave, I'll take her with me.' For Lin Siyin, such a promise was enough. The shyness from being reminded by Ye Tianya that Yang Ying was still watching, mixed with the overwhelming joy of receiving Ye Tianya's promise, made Lin Siyin both embarrassed and happy. She quickly let go of Ye Tianya, her face flushed, and cautiously looked at Yang Ying. Yang Ying chuckled and said, "I didn't see anything, I didn't hear anything. I shouldn't look at what I shouldn't see. I'm going to see where my Beibei is..."

Ye Tianya chuckled inwardly, thinking, "No wonder they're mother and daughter; they even talk the same way. "

Yang Ying's words made Lin Siyin even more embarrassed, so she simply hid in the study. Yang Ying also went to her own room, leaving only Li Lanyu in the living room. When Ye Tianya saw Li Lanyu's clenched teeth, he felt something was wrong. Sure enough, just as he had this ominous feeling, Li Lanyu pounced on him, pinning him to the sofa and launching a flurry of punches and kicks. While thrashing about, she sobbed and cursed, "You bastard, you scoundrel, you irresponsible guy, leaving us with such a mess!" "You ran off to have your own fun, I'll beat you up, I'll break your legs, let's see if you dare to run away from

me again, I hate you so much, I hate you so much..." The camera fell into Yang Ying's hands, and Sima Ruyan also joined the group photo. Li Lanyu, however, quietly grabbed a handful of snow from behind and slowly moved towards Ye Tianya's back. While everyone was focused on the camera, she grabbed Ye Tianya's collar and threw a handful of snow down his neck as revenge for Ye Tianya's earlier teasing kiss. Ye Tianya never expected to be attacked so suddenly. By the time he reacted, his back was already covered in ice. He immediately squatted down, grabbed a handful of snow, and pounced on Li Lanyu. Thus, the two rivals started another snowball fight. The battle between the two gradually spread to others, and soon more people joined in, slowly involving everyone except Yang Ying, who was carrying Beibei away from the battlefield with her camera. Snowballs were flying everywhere on the lawn in front of the End of the World.

By the time the battle ended, the snow scene had vanished. Fortunately, the photos captured its beauty eternally, so no one felt any regret.

When everyone was tired and returned to the second floor, Yang Meng called all four newly hired workers up to meet Ye Tianya and Xingye. Xiao Qiu and the others were already acquainted. There was also a girl named Xiao Lan, who was good at math and Yang Meng often dragged her shopping to do the accounting. The other two were the girls Ye Tianya had cleaned in the living room when he returned; Lin Siyin called them Xiao Lian and Xiao Mei respectively. Because of Xu Keming's special 'training,' the four were somewhat afraid of Ye Tianya. Ye Tianya didn't care about that; after encouraging them a few times, he said to Yang Meng, "Sister Meng, take them to work. Same as always, you'll arrange and coordinate their work. Just tell them what to pay attention to and what not to do. Oh, by the way, it's almost Chinese New Year, are you going home for the holidays?" Ye Tianya's last words were directed at the four girls.

All four girls shook their heads, and Ye Tianya smiled and said, "Whatever you want. If you don't want to go back, then stay with us. Meng-jie, when you buy New Year's goods, buy each of them an extra set of clothes, and give them an extra month's salary at the end of the year."

The four girls immediately lit up with joy and were extremely grateful to Ye Tianya. Ye Tianya stopped them and gestured for them to go and do their work before asking Lin Siyin, "Siyin-jie, how is the project at the End of the World progressing?"
Chapter 242 The Blue Palace
Lin Siyin organized herself before replying, "The main structures of all one hundred villas are now complete. The main construction teams have finished their work. You probably saw it when you came back. The roads leading here have all been completed, and the water and electricity..." "The gas is fully operational, and the winning bidders' renovation requirements have been sent via email. All renovation teams are now working overtime to complete the interior decoration according to the residents' color schemes and specific layout requirements. The landscaping won't begin until after the Spring Festival, and the entire project is expected to be completed in about two months."

Ye Tianya didn't even pass through the villa area when he returned. He jumped back to the third floor of Haijiao Tianya, then briefly jumped out of Haijiao Tianya again, walking back to the main gate. Of course, he didn't know whether the road was open or not, nor what the progress of the community's construction was. However, Lin Siyin's report made him very relieved. With Lin Siyin in charge, he felt at ease. Absolutely at ease.

Li Lanyu snorted, "What, are you surprised? If it weren't for Sister Siyin, do you think your career would have achieved such success? With your habit of disappearing every few days, Tianya Real Estate would have collapsed long ago. And you still don't appreciate Sister Siyin's efforts for you."

Lin Siyin's face immediately turned red, and she scolded Li Lanyu, "Xiaoyu, what nonsense are you talking about? If you say another word, I'll tear your mouth apart."

Li Lanyu retorted fearlessly, "That's right! She was just speaking up for you. No good deed goes unpunished. Think about it, this guy, he's not doing his job properly, all he does is chase after beautiful women..." Li Lanyu blushed as she spoke. Ye Tianya didn't argue with Li Lanyu this time because she was right; Lin Siyin's hard work was indeed admirable. He felt ashamed, his gaze towards Lin Siyin unconsciously filled with apology and tenderness. Lin Siyin blushed even more, unable to bear the embarrassment, and stood up, saying, "I still have some things to finish, I'm going to the study."

Li Lanyu immediately retaliated for her conspiring with others to get her kissed by Ye Tianya, chuckling, "Sister Siyin, I was just talking about you, and now you're trying to steal the spotlight?"

Lin Siyin was caught in a dilemma; going to the study wasn't good, and not going wasn't good either. She turned around and glared at Li Lanyu a few times, her face flushed, and said, "Then I'll go to sleep, okay?"

Lin Siyin slipped into her room, leaving everyone laughing again. Encouraged by Xingye's gaze, Ye Tianya stood up amidst the laughter and followed Lin Siyin, pushing open her bedroom door.

"Tianya—what are you doing in here?" Lin Siyin was sitting in front of the dressing table, covering her face. She had taken off her light blue down jacket and placed it on the bed, leaving her in only a tight-fitting sweater that revealed her graceful figure. Seeing Ye Tianya open the door, she stood up in surprise, blushing deeply. Her face, still flushed, turned even redder.

Ye Tianya gently closed the door, walked behind Lin Siyin, and gently wrapped his arms around her slender waist, pulling her against his chest. Lin Siyin tensed, wanting to struggle, but another voice quickly took over. This embrace—wasn't this what she had always longed for? So, she shyly cooperated, leaning back. She felt Ye Tianya lower his head, his face close to her ear, and suddenly a gentle voice whispered in her ear, "Siyin, you've suffered."

Lin Siyin's stiff body went limp at that gentle voice; she even felt her legs lose strength, surrendering her entire weight to the boy behind her, to the hands around her.

“Tianya, you’ve changed.”

“Oh? How have you changed?”

“You’ve become like you were back in college, the same as when you used to argue with Xiaoyu.”

“Which Tianya do you like?”

“I like the current Tianya, because the current Tianya has let go of a lot of psychological burdens, and the current Tianya can smile from the bottom of her heart, you know? When I see you so happy, I feel so happy.”

“Yes, two months. I’ve used two months to think about many things, and I’ve indeed let go of many things. I’ve always been running away from things, whether it’s relationships, family ties, or unbearable past events. I chose to run away from everything. I’ve thought a lot these past two months and realized that running away is never the solution. What needs to be faced must be faced. It’s better to go with the flow, live a more carefree life, and cause less trouble for those around you.”

Lin Siyin turned her head, intentionally or unintentionally rubbing her face against Ye Tianya’s, and said, “You’ve finally figured it out. I’ve been waiting for this day for so long. Ever since you rescued me from Qin Ting, I’ve been waiting for you. Today, I finally get this embrace. Tianya, thank you.” "You."

Ye Tianya gently stroked Lin Siyin's ear and whispered, "Siyin, I'm the one who should say thank you. Thank you for your love, thank you for everything you've done for me, thank you for waiting so long."

Lin Siyin said emotionally, "No need...no need, Tianya, I'm willing, I'm willing to do anything for you. I'm willing, even if there's no embrace today, no promise to disappear with me, I'll still do anything for you, because...I love you, Tianya."

Ye Tianya was deeply moved. He released his hand from Lin Siyin's waist, gently turned her around, and looked deeply into her tender eyes. Ye Tianya slowly lowered his head, and at the same time, Lin Siyin gently closed her eyes, welcoming Ye Tianya's affectionate arrival.

The other girls were all very sensible, including Li Lanyu, who obediently returned to her room. No one disturbed them. The room was filled with a subtle fragrance. After the passionate kiss, Lin Siyin completely lost her strong-woman demeanor and nestled obediently in Ye Tianya's arms like a kitten. Ye Tianya gently picked her up and placed her on the bed, then gently lay down beside her. Lin Siyin was secretly alarmed. He... he wouldn't be going to...

Lin Siyin thought that if Ye Tianya really wanted to take advantage of her, she would accept it. But unexpectedly, after Ye Tianya lay down beside her, he simply held her gently, turned his body, and quietly looked at her face. Lin Siyin lowered her head shyly, but Ye Tianya said gently, "Siyin, don't move. Let me take a good look at you."

Lin Siyin blushed and raised her head slightly to meet Ye Tianya's gaze, but she closed her eyes shyly, not daring to meet his eyes. Looking at her shy appearance, Ye Tianya couldn't help but feel a surge of desire. If it weren't for the fact that it was broad daylight, Lin Siyin would probably have been unable to escape his clutches. Although Ye Tianya restrained his impulse, he couldn't resist leaning in to savor her alluring cherry lips...

News of Ye Tianya's return quickly reached the ears of those involved. The first to know was Xu Keming, who was told by Sima Ruyan. Upon learning of Ye Tianya's return, Xu Keming finally felt at ease. Next, Yin Chao was informed by Yang Meng over the phone. Once Yin Chao knew, Ye Yingjie and his wife naturally found out as well, and then Du Wei and Du Qing also learned about it. Black Hawk learned of Ye Tianya's return from the people he had sent to protect Haijiao Tianya and Yang Ying near Haijiao Tianya. Upon receiving the news, he immediately rushed from the Blue Palace, which had been established for just over a month. The Blue Palace was a high-level club that Ye Tianya had suggested he consolidate some scattered businesses and build according to international standards. It was a high-end leisure club that combined leisure, entertainment, and sports, featuring upscale bars, a small golf driving range, luxurious KTV rooms, and more. The Blue Palace adopted a membership system, and the membership fee was set at 500,000 from the beginning. Although the industry remained the same, and even the staff were drawn from their original industries and trained, this transformation allowed them to stand at a different level. When several senior executives of Qingfeng Group, Xueya Shuangye Gu Letian, and other financial tycoons he led became members of the Blue Palace, membership immediately became a symbol of status. In just one month, the Blue Palace had established a firm foothold in S City.

At this moment, Black Hawk came to report to Ye Tianya, who had just returned, about the successful achievements of Blue Palace. Black Hawk both respected and feared Ye Tianya. He respected his unwavering loyalty and righteousness, his revenge for Night Owl and others, and his care for Night Owl's orphan. Especially when it came to distributing Qingfeng's assets, Ye Tianya offered to give all the property to Yang Ying and her daughter, which earned him the utmost respect from Black Hawk and his men. Of course, while respecting him, he also feared him. He had always been confident in his own skills, but when he witnessed Ye Tianya's elusive and unpredictable abilities, he completely lost his confidence. Especially considering the bizarre death of the policeman who leaked the information, Black Hawk believed it must have been Ye Tianya's doing. The way Ye Tianya acted so silently was what truly chilled Black Hawk. With the strength of the Shadow Spy Agency, Ye Tianya's two disappearances had left them without a single trace. Sometimes he didn't know whether following such a boss was a blessing or a curse. But he knew that as long as he remained loyal to him, it was definitely a blessing.

Unlike his previous visits to the End of the Earth, the atmosphere Black Hawk felt upon entering this time was completely different. Every blade of grass and every tree seemed happy and excited, giving off an atmosphere of harmony and joy. This even stirred Black Hawk's emotions, causing the usually cold-blooded man to break into a smile.

After being pestered by Bei Bei for a while, Ye Tianya finally received him in his study on the second floor.

"Long time no see, Brother Black Hawk," Ye Tianya said with a smile.

Black Hawk laughed, "Yes, it's been over two months. Tianya seems to have changed."

Ye Tianya laughed, realizing his own changes were quite noticeable, as Black Hawk had noticed as soon as he entered. Seeing Ye Tianya's good mood, Black Hawk relaxed and said, "Tianya, the high-end club you suggested last time has been successfully established. And the initial results are quite good. Although there are currently less than a hundred members, it has truly achieved the effect you envisioned. Now, many people consider holding a Blue Palace membership card a symbol of status."
Chapter 243 His Own Filial Piety
Ye Tianya was pleased to hear this and patted Black Hawk on the shoulder, saying, "This is all... " "It's all thanks to Brother Black Hawk. Anyway, since I've entrusted this whole area to you, develop it as quickly as possible, and then expand it outwards to provide a home for our Shadow agents across the country. Just imagine what it would be like when Blue Palaces are all over the country!"

Black Hawk was also influenced by Ye Tianya's boldness and said enthusiastically, "Don't worry, Tianya, I will work hard."

With the New Year approaching, Black Hawk reported on the company's performance to Ye Tianya. Although the performance had somewhat declined when the scattered entertainment venues' manpower and resources were consolidated into the high-end club, it had gradually recovered and started to rise again after the club was established. All of this was expected. After listening, Ye Tianya encouraged him for a few moments before saying, "Brother Black Hawk, the New Year is approaching. The brothers below have worked hard all year. Let's give them a proper reward in this last month. Let everyone have a good New Year. Also, the families of those brothers who sacrificed their lives for Shadow Spy, you must properly comfort them."

Black Hawk immediately replied, "Don't worry, Tianya, I've already arranged all of that. Each family of the brothers who sacrificed their lives for Shadow Spy will receive an extra 100,000 yuan in compensation during the New Year, and all the brothers' pay will be double-monthly during the New Year."

Only then did Ye Tianya feel relieved and say, "That's good. Since we don't get involved in drugs, the brothers below aren't well-off, so we'll distribute the rest of the income more widely. Don't let them become poor and take risks. If you were to punish them personally, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to do it."

Black Hawk also knew that if someone really dared to take the risk of getting involved in drugs to make money, Ye Tianya might really ask him to make an example of them. Could he really bring himself to do it then? They're all family, and since we can't bring ourselves to do it, the only way is to prevent it as much as possible.

Black Hawk felt a great responsibility and nodded solemnly. He went back to handle his own affairs. Mentioning year-end employee benefits, Ye Tianya couldn't help but think that it was almost year-end, and perhaps Haijiao Tianya should also have something to do. After Black Hawk left, Ye Tianya pushed open the study door and went out. Only Xiao Qiu and a few others were busy in the living room. Ye Tianya asked, "Xiao Qiu, where's Sister Meng?"

Yang Meng popped out of the kitchen and said, "I'm here, Mr. Ye. Is there something you need?"

Ye Tianya smiled and said, "It's almost the New Year, and I wanted to see how Sister Meng had arranged things. Shouldn't we decorate Haijiao Tianya a bit more festively? Shouldn't we hang up some lanterns or something?"

Yang Meng laughed. Her boss had finally returned to normal, no longer as lifeless and oppressive as before. The smile on her face was much more natural. Ning Xiang smiled and said, "Mr. Ye, I've already bought them and am planning to hang them up this afternoon."

Hearing this, Ye Tianya realized he seemed to have nothing left to do. Just as he was about to return to the company, Yin Chao and his mother arrived at the gate of Haijiao Tianya in the van Ye Tianya had given them. Seeing that it was Yin Chao ringing the doorbell, Yang Meng opened the gate without waiting for Ye Tianya to greet her.

Seeing Yin Chao and his mother, Ye Tianya naturally thought of Ye Yingjie and his wife, who were likely his biological parents. However, two months of reflection had given Ye Tianya a better understanding of how to handle these matters; he was no longer as impulsive and confused as before. He calmly looked at Yin Chao and his mother as they entered and, as always, warmly invited them to sit down.

Yin Chao immediately asked, "Boss, where have you been these past two months?"

Ye Tianya smiled and replied, "I took Xingye and Xue'er out for a walk to clear their heads. By the way, Yin Chao, how's the sales of your system going?"

Yin Chao had initially thought Ye Tianya would still blame him and his mother, but seeing that Ye Tianya showed no resentment, he gradually breathed a sigh of relief. Ye Tianya didn't blame them; he had no reason to. From their perspective, it was entirely to help him and for his own good. Although it touched upon some of his past wounds, the intention was ultimately good. Therefore, Ye Tianya didn't blame them at all.

Mentioning his system's sales figures, Yin Chao immediately perked up, excitedly saying, "We've sold a million sets so far! And that's not all! You know, that algorithm has been included in computer textbooks! But there's something I need to tell you, don't be angry."

Ye Tianya felt a slight unease; Yin Chao never brought this up before anything good happened. Sure enough, Yin Chao cautiously said, "The inventor of this algorithm in the textbook is named—Ye Tianya."

Upon hearing this, Ye Tianya almost exploded, glaring at Yin Chao as if about to attack. Yin Chao was startled and quickly said, "Boss, this isn't my fault! Who told you to disappear like that? The people compiling the book came to me asking who invented the algorithm. I wanted to write my own name on it, but this algorithm was clearly invented by you. I was afraid you'd blame me for stealing your intellectual property when you came back, so I wanted to discuss it with you first, but I couldn't find you."

Ye Tianya was furious; this guy really knew what he was talking about, and he really couldn't do anything about it. Slumped back onto the sofa, looking at Yin Chao's smug expression, Ye Tianya almost got up to punch him again. He said irritably, "General Manager Yin, did you come here today just to annoy me?"

Yin Chao chuckled, "How could I dare annoy you? I'm just here to apologize. Don't worry, boss. Although you're a celebrity in the financial world, you're not famous in the software industry. Even some of our recent graduates don't know you exist. Even if you were included in a book, people wouldn't know how old Ye Tianya is. Maybe some would think he's a university professor or something, or even that he's a sixty or seventy-year-old man. They wouldn't expect him to come to your doorstep. Hehe, but there's one more thing. I told you, you can't hit me. If you do, I won't say anything more."

Ye Tianya was exasperated. Another thing? Helpless, he could only promise not to hit him.

Yin Chao then explained, "The situation is like this: after Xueya Shuangye withdrew from its investment in Boshi, Boshi and the Fang family couldn't reach an agreement. Seeing that both Xueya Shuangye and Kaiyuan from B City had abandoned their investments in Boshi, the investment community in S City assumed there was some inside information being withheld, making them hesitant to invest. As a result, President Du hasn't received the funds to start the project, but the government's deadline is fast approaching, so he had no choice but to ask me to contact Xueya Shuangye again. President Gu said you had already abandoned the investment. After analyzing the situation, I realized Boshi's downfall was entirely due to your rivalry with Fang Hua. Actually, the investment profit..." "It was quite a considerable sum, so I suggested that President Gu invest in Boshi. President Gu knew the inside story, knew about your affair with Fang Hua, and knew that you acted impulsively back then. He also knew that there was indeed a profit to be made, but he didn't dare to invest without your permission. So I took it upon myself to let him invest. I told him that if he blamed me, I would take full responsibility. That's how it is."

Ye Tianya sighed inwardly. Yin Chao was only considering the investment profits; he didn't know that he was Ye Xin from back then, only thinking that it was his own impulsive act after falling out with Fang Hua. He was right; investing in Boshi did indeed have substantial profits, and from a businessman's perspective, there was no reason not to invest.

Ye Tianya didn't blame Yin Chao. He had reflected on the matter over the past two months. Du Qing's departure back then, to pursue her life in high society, wasn't wrong, because he truly couldn't offer her anything beyond empty promises. If it weren't for his near-death experience acquiring his abilities and Liz, he would probably still be just an ordinary college student, waiting to graduate and find a job to make ends meet. How could he give Du Qing the happiness she desired? Although she was vain and a bit materialistic, how many people in this world aren't? Aside from being materialistic, the Du family hadn't done anything to wrong him. His materialism was different from Lan's mother's because they hadn't harmed Ye Tianya or those around him. The investment was made, so be it. From a businessman's perspective, no one was wrong—Yin Chao wasn't wrong, Gu Letian wasn't wrong.

Ye Tianya said calmly, "I invested, so be it. I was just angry at Fang Hua and Du Wei's actions. Money is money, no matter where it's invested. Okay, is there anything else you want to tell me that I promise I won't get angry about?"

Yin Chao smiled shamelessly, "Yes!"

"Yes?" Ye Tianya couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. After two months apart, had Yin Chao really gotten himself into some big trouble?

Yin Chao smiled, "Yes, let Mom talk about it." Yin Chao looked at his mother, who had been sitting beside him. Yin's mother put down her teacup and said, "Xiao Ye, what I want to talk about is your parents. They've been calling almost every day for the past two months to ask if you're back. It's almost Chinese New Year, you should go back and visit them."

When Ye Tianya heard that his mother was going to talk about it and that she wanted him to listen without getting angry, he knew what she would say. But when she actually said it, Ye Tianya couldn't help but feel a surge of anxiety. For the past two months, his biggest concern had been his parents. He had originally thought that everything would take its course, but now that it was finally happening, he was still a little flustered.

Yin's mother and Yin Chao watched Ye Tianya nervously, waiting for his reply, worried that he might leave like last time. But this time, Ye Tianya hesitated only slightly before smiling and saying, "We'll see. It's almost New Year's, I have to go to the company, and then I have to go to the orphanage with Xiao Ye. Whether I have time or not is another matter. Anyway, thank you for your concern. I'll handle my own affairs. By the way, Auntie, since you're here today, why don't you stay and celebrate the New Year together here this year?"

Yin Chao then blurted out, "No, my mom and I will go home to reunite. You have parents, go and take care of them yourself. I'll take care of my mom myself."
Chapter 244 Qian'er's Leaked Letter.
Yin Chao said this entirely for... Yin Chao's mother had tried to provoke Ye Tianya into meeting Ye Yingjie, but her words startled her so much that she turned around and slapped Yin Chao hard across the face. The slap was so loud that Yin Chao was stunned and stared blankly at his mother. His mother, however, was still angry and said, "You brat, what are you saying? Apologize to Ye Tianya

right now!" Yin Chao's words were entirely intended to provoke Ye Tianya into meeting Ye Yingjie, but he forgot that although his intentions were for Ye Tianya's sake, the timing and place were inappropriate. Moreover, what should have been said in a joking tone was delivered rather stiffly by Yin Chao, which explains why his mother was angry. Ye Tianya quickly pulled back the angry Mrs. Yin, saying, "Auntie, don't be angry. I know Yin Chao was just trying to provoke me. His little schemes can't be hidden from me. Have some tea and calm down."

Ye Tianya then glared at Yin Chao and said, "Is this how you show filial piety?"

Yin Chao blushed. He realized his words were ill-timed, but it was too late to take them back. Ye Tianya not only didn't blame him, but had even turned the tables on him. He couldn't help but feel embarrassed and chuckled, "Mom, the eldest son..." "You got what I meant, didn't you? Don't be angry, or that guy will say I'm not filial to you. I'm very filial, you said it yourself... Ouch, it hurts, Mom, be gentle—"

Yin Chao tried to appease his mother and calm her down, but instead, his mother grabbed his ear and gave him a severe scolding. He suffered the consequences and ended up sitting on the sofa with his ears red and his head drooping. Yang Meng and the four maids stood beside him, secretly laughing, which made Yin Chao bury his head even deeper. Sigh, he had lost all face. After scolding Yin Chao, Mother Yin turned to Ye Tianya and said, "Little Ye, I'm not leaving today. I'll just come and join in the fun this year. As for Xiao Chao, he said he doesn't want to live with us. Let him go wherever he wants."

Yin Chao immediately jumped up, making a face and acting like a brat, "No, Mom, you can't abandon me! Wherever you are, I'll be there. I have to be filial to you, don't I?"

Yang Meng and the four maids laughed again. Yin Chao finally lost his temper and protested vehemently to Ye Tianya, "Eldest brother, your servants are so rude! They dare to laugh at guests! Sister Meng, you, the housekeeper..." "That's dereliction of duty."

Yin Chao's words made the four maids turn pale immediately, and they nervously lowered their heads, bracing themselves for a scolding. Yang Meng also looked at Ye Tianya nervously, but Ye Tianya laughed and said, "You're not satisfied? Go ahead and appeal! Why aren't they laughing at me? By the way, go and appeal to Xiao Ye, let her get you some face back. Also, when did you become a guest? Do you even consider yourself a guest?" When

Yin Chao heard about appealing to Xing Ye, his face immediately changed back to the maids, turning ashen and bitter. "Forget it, if Xiao Ye is added to the list, I'm doomed."

"Yin Chao, are you talking bad about me? What do you mean you're doomed if I'm added to the list? Do you think I'll eat you?" Xing Ye's voice rang out at the top of the stairs at just the right moment, as she walked down leisurely. Upon hearing Xingye's voice, Yin Chao trembled slightly, but quickly forced a smile and said, "No way, how could I dare speak ill of Xiaoye? I was just worried that I forgot to bring candy and might get kicked out by Xiaoye."

Xingye came down and laughed, "Now we don't eat candy anymore, we eat people, and we don't spit out the bones, so you're still doomed." As she spoke, with Yin Chao feigning fear, Xingye smiled and greeted Yin's mother, "Auntie, how long have you been here?"

Yin's mother looked Xingye up and down carefully, smiling kindly, "Xiaoye, it's good that you still recognize Auntie. Auntie just..." "Come here. Come see our little princess. Come here, let Auntie see you."

Xingye sat obediently next to Mother Yin, first giving Ye Tianya a gentle look before saying to Mother Yin, "Auntie, why don't you stay today and celebrate the New Year with us?"

Mother Yin smiled and said, "Of course, Auntie would be delighted. Your brother just asked me to stay too, and I agreed. I heard from Xiao Ye that you're going to the orphanage, right? Take Yin Chao with you. He just said he wanted to show his filial piety to me, so let him go and donate some charity on my behalf. If he doesn't have much, let him donate 100,000."

"Ah—Mom—" Yin Chao cried out in pain. Mother Yin glared at him, and Yin Chao immediately wilted, saying, "You're really generous, sigh."

Several maids wanted to laugh again, but remembering Yin Chao's words, they quickly suppressed their laughter and left. Xiao Qiu, fearing that more people would need help, wanted to stay, but Yang Meng sent her away, saying, "Go down and set up all the lanterns. I'll take care of things upstairs."

Xiao Qiu left with a sigh of relief. Standing upstairs, she wanted to laugh but didn't have to, yet that lovable Mr. Yin was so funny that they couldn't help but chuckle. Leaving was definitely the best option. Little did they know, Yin Chao was currently agonizing over 100,000 yuan and had no time for jokes.

Yin's mother agreed to stay, and Ye Tianya immediately went to arrange their accommodations. At this moment, Yang Ying came out of the room carrying Bei Bei and said, "Tianya, Yang Meng is handling things at home. You don't need to worry about these trivial matters. She'll take care of them. I think what you should be concerned about now is whether Ru Yan and the others go home for the New Year or stay at the ends of the earth."

Ye Tianya was taken aback. Yes, they all still had parents and siblings waiting for them at home for a reunion. He couldn't leave them at the ends of the earth just for his own selfish reasons.

Ye Tianya called all four girls into Sima Ruyan's room and asked earnestly, "It's almost New Year's. Are you going home for the holidays or staying here?"

Nangong Qian'er answered without hesitation, "Captain, how about we bring Grandpa over?"

Ye Tianya smiled and looked at Nangong Qian'er, "Sure, so you're sure you're staying?"

Nangong Qian'er nodded firmly. Now, only she and her grandfather remained of her Nangong lineage. If Nangong Xiong came to the ends of the earth, it would be no different from her going back home, and it wouldn't be as lively as this place. After receiving Nangong Qian'er's answer, Ye Tianya looked at the other three girls, but they all silently lowered their heads and didn't speak. Needless to say, this silence meant they wanted to go home. Finally, Sima Ruyan spoke up, "We want to stay, but... our families have called several times urging us to come back. We've been waiting for you to return these past few days, so we haven't gone back yet. We... can we come back to be with you after the New Year?"

Although Ye Tianya was somewhat disappointed, he rationally smiled and said, "Hehe, it's a deal then. Come back as soon as possible after the New Year."

The three girls breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Ye Tianya wasn't unhappy. What made them even happier was that after Ye Tianya booked their plane tickets, he personally took them shopping for a day and bought gifts for their respective families. He even saw them off at the airport.

After seeing off Ouyang Xin'er, the last one to leave, back to Lincheng, Ye Tianya felt slightly uneasy. He had a bad feeling, a feeling that made him restless. He had been worried about whether the three girls would have any problems on the way, but after returning to Haijiao Tianya, he received calls from the three girls that evening to let him know they had arrived home safely. Only then did Ye Tianya feel relieved. He didn't dwell on the unease he had felt at the airport.

Lin Siyin didn't go home; she couldn't escape company affairs either. Although the company had a long Spring Festival holiday, her work wasn't finished. Besides, as a company CEO, she naturally had to attend many social engagements during the Spring Festival. So she simply couldn't leave and had to stay at Ye Tianya's house for the New Year. Li Lanyu, on the other hand, simply called home to say she wouldn't be coming home for the New Year, and that was it. Her parents were already used to their daughter not coming home for the New Year; Li Lanyu often didn't come home for the New Year when she was in college. When her parents learned that she was staying at Ye Tianya's house for the New Year, they agreed without hesitation.

Suddenly, three girls left, and Ye Tianya felt a little uneasy. Fortunately, Nangong Qian'er was still there. Ye Tianya made a phone call to Nangong Xiong, who was busy with social engagements. After hearing Ye Tianya's request, Nangong Xiong readily agreed to come to Ye Tianya's house to spend the New Year together. After Ye Tianya hung up the phone, Nangong Qian'er asked nervously, "Captain, what did Grandpa say?"

Ye Tianya laughed and gently hugged Nangong Qian'er, saying, "What else could he say? Of course, he's coming to spend the New Year with our Qian'er."

Nangong Qian'er was overjoyed and snuggled into Ye Tianya's arms, saying, "That's great! Grandpa agreed to come for the New Year, which means he's starting to change his mind..." Nangong Qian'er suddenly stopped, clearly because she had let something slip.

"Changed his mind about what?" Ye Tianya asked, puzzled.

Seeing that she couldn't avoid it, Nangong Qian'er had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Actually, although Grandpa didn't object to me being with the captain, he did try to persuade me a few times. He said... he said..." Nangong Qian'er hesitated for a moment, then looked nervously at Ye Tianya and said, "Don't be angry with Grandpa, okay? He said he wasn't forcing me, he just wanted me to think it over."

Although Ye Tianya felt a bit upset, since someone wanted to separate them, he was naturally unhappy. However, he still wanted to hear what Nangong Xiong had to say, because he felt that Nangong Xiong wouldn't be the type of woman Lan Yang had a woman with. So he smiled and picked up Nangong Qian'er, placing her on his lap. He sat on her bed and asked softly, "I don't blame your grandfather. Now, can you tell me what he said?"

Nangong Qian'er blushed and said, "Grandpa said... he said that although you, Captain, care about me very much, even shooting at Director Xia when I was in trouble, almost killing him, you have... He said that even if you don't count Sister Siyin and Sister Yu, if you include me, you have seven... seven... wives. He said I'm not as pretty as Sister Shuang and the others, and my feelings for you aren't as deep as Xiao Ye's. He's afraid that over time... Captain, you... you'll dislike me. He's worried that I'll be bullied and wronged..." (
Chapter 245 Nangong Qian'er)
After finishing, Nangong Qian'er worried that Ye Tianya would be angry, so she immediately defended Nangong Xiong, saying, "But Grandpa also said he respects my decision, just that I should think it over carefully and not regret it afterward. Captain, Grandpa didn't mean to look down on you, please don't blame him, okay? Qian'er only has one grandfather."

Seeing Nangong Qian'er's worried expression, Ye Tianya felt a pang of heartache. He hugged her tightly and said, "I don't blame him. He's a good grandfather, a grandfather who loves you. He's right. I was too fickle. I'm sorry, Qian'er." Nangong

Qian'er hugged Ye Tianya back, shaking her head repeatedly, "No...no, Captain, you weren't fickle. We did it willingly. Grandpa didn't know how much we love you. He didn't know how much you love us, which is why he said that. I believe you, Captain, and I believe the other sisters. You won't despise me, will you?"

"No, never. Qian'er will always be your darling. " Ye Tianya hugged Nangong Qian'er tightly, moved, and couldn't help but lower his head to find her small mouth. Nangong Qian'er responded passionately to Ye Tianya. Their intimate moment in the training jungle was under the influence of drugs, and they had no memory of it. This was Ye Tianya's first real kiss with her. Nangong Qian'er responded clumsily, but was still 'taught' by Ye Tianya, her pretty face flushed and her breath coming in gasps.

Ye Tianya hadn't expected this girl to be so sensitive; just one kiss and she was already so aroused. He didn't know if it was possessiveness or physical need at play, but Ye Tianya's hand gently slipped under Nangong Qian'er's clothes...

Although Nangong Qian'er was somewhat reserved and shy, she didn't... There was no attempt to stop Ye Tianya; she had already been his woman back in the jungle drug camp. Nangong Qian'er loosened her arms from her chest, enduring Ye Tianya's second assault...

When her fragrant sweat soaked the sheets, when her breath filled the room, when the peak of pleasure finally brought her mind back to normal, exhausted Nangong Qian'er collapsed onto Ye Tianya, closing her eyes and pressing her face against his broad chest, savoring the lingering afterglow. She felt the gentle caress of Ye Tianya on her smooth back. Afterwards,

she was glad she hadn't chosen to go home for the New Year like Sima Ruyan and the others; she was glad she had stayed, making her the first of the four girls to receive Ye Tianya's affection.

"Captain..." Nangong Qian'er's languid voice was filled with sweetness and satisfaction.

"Qian'er—" Ye Tianya lowered his head, lifting Nangong Qian'er's face, and said, "Qian'er, you're so beautiful now, like an angel." Nangong

Qian'er blushed and lowered her head again, sweetly pressing herself against Ye Tianya...

That night, Ye Tianya didn't leave the room. Afterwards, Nangong Qian'er felt the existence of paradise for the first time; Ye Tianya's arms were her paradise... Afterwards

※※※

Hu Qing was somewhat surprised to see Ye Tianya, who had disappeared for two months, suddenly standing in front of him. He couldn't help but punch him before saying, "You brat, when did you get back? Where have you been for the past two months? You didn't go off to run away from your debts, did you?"

Ye Tianya laughed, "That's right, I'm drowning in debt. I came today to borrow some money from Attorney Hu and the CEO of Xinghuo Fund."

Hu Qing gestured for him to sit down and had his secretary make him a cup of coffee before saying, "You have it easy, disappearing whenever you want to relax. Look at me, so much stuff! I'm so busy. Look at my hair, I've lost at least 9,999 strands. Hard work ages you fast." Hu Qing pointed to the pile of folders on the table and scratched his hair, complaining to Ye Tianya.

Ye Tianya smiled, "How about I find you a helper?"

"A helper?" Hu Qing looked at Ye Tianya in confusion. Afterwards,

Ye Tianya said, "Xiaoye has regained her memory and has learned a lot about law through self-study. I'd like her to learn from you, what do you think?"

Hu Qing, hearing that Xingye wanted to come for an internship, readily agreed and laughed, "Great! Finally, I can find some free labor to exploit! When are you coming? This afternoon?"

Ye Tianya said irritably, "You're too much! At least you should finish all this before you have time to teach Xiaoye, right? Just finish your own work." Afterwards,

Ye Tianya added, "I'm here to take the city's orphans..." "You should have the orphanage's information here, right?"

Hu Qing laughed. "Of course, don't forget this is the Xinghuo Charity Foundation. We may not have other information, but we have complete information on orphanages from all over the country. What do you need the information for?"

Ye Tianya laughed. "I suddenly feel better and have changed some of my previous views. I want to do good deeds. Is that not allowed?" Upon

hearing this, Hu Qing immediately beamed and said, "Great! Great! As a philanthropist, I'm extremely happy that Mr. Ye wants to do good deeds. Come, come, I'll give you a copy of all the orphanage information."

"Do you think I'm the country's printing press? Did the municipal orphanage receive funding from your Xinghuo Foundation this time? How much did you give them?" Ye Tianya stopped the excited Hu Qing and said.

Hu Qing smiled and said, "We inspected several orphanages and provided assistance to fifty of them that were in relatively poor condition. The orphanages in S City are located in the urban area, and during holidays, government officials inevitably rush to them to make a good impression. They're not in bad shape; the ones in poorer areas are those in nearby districts and more remote towns. Although we allocated five million this time, quite a few orphanages that applied to us still didn't receive assistance. As for those closer to here… well, here in DK County, it's slightly better than the ones we assisted, but it's still the worst compared to the ones we didn't assist. It's not far from here, only a three-hour drive."

Ye Ye Tianya took the documents Hu Qing handed him and glanced at them. The DK County Welfare Home had ten orphans and three elderly people living alone. Ye Tianya thought for a moment and then asked, "Is this the only one nearby that you haven't considered?"

Hu Qing's eyes lit up, knowing that Ye Tianya's donation was likely more than just 100,000 or 200,000 yuan. He then pulled out two more file folders and said, "There are two more here, near DK County. Because they're in the same direction, our staff didn't go to this side, so they didn't receive our donations there."

Ye Tianya took them and scanned them. They were slightly better than the DK County one; one had seven orphans and one elderly person, and the other had nine orphans. There were no elderly people. After receiving the three, Ye Tianya said, "Alright, let's go take a walk. Yin Chao got dragged into this mess; he'll probably be in for a lot of trouble tomorrow."

Hu Qing laughed afterwards, "That guy's a real miser after the fact. You actually managed to drag him down, haha, interesting. I really want to see him in pain. Oh, right, you just said Xingye regained her memory, right?"

Ye Tianya smiled, "Yes, otherwise how could I dare let him come here? You'd have to buy at least a bag of candy and wait for him in the office every day."

Hu Qing smiled, "I'll go see her after I'm done with this. Okay, you go do your thing. I forgot to remind you, the road there isn't easy to travel. You might have to leave early tomorrow. It's best to go to DK County first, then the other two counties, so you can avoid traffic jams on the way back."

Ye Tianya didn't say much more, waved goodbye to Hu Qing, and went straight back to Xueya Shuangye.

He was, of course, unaware that shortly after he left, the phone number on Hu Qingzhao's file dialed a number: "Hello, Dean Xiao? This is Hu Qing from the Xinghuo Charity Foundation. Hehe, hello, hello. It's like this, we carefully considered the information you submitted last time and compared it with other places. Since we can only allocate a small amount of money at a time, we couldn't reach your institution. We're truly sorry. However, I mentioned your situation to two friends of mine afterward, and I estimate they will come over tomorrow morning to provide some personal assistance to the children in the institution. Oh, yes, yes, hehe, they're two young people..."

Ye Tianya made a brief stop at Xueya Shuangye to greet everyone, inevitably receiving another round of concern from his colleagues. Everyone was already used to Gu Letian's inexplicable disappearance and return as if nothing had happened; after all, he was a stock market guru. One day of his work was enough for everyone to work for several years or even decades, so of course he didn't need to come to work every day.

After leaving, Ye Tianya went directly to Manager Cai's Century Shopping Mall. He was there to pick up some goods to buy gifts for the orphans and elderly in three orphanages. Based on the information he got from Hu Qing, he bought a down jacket and warm shoes for each of the twenty-six orphans and four elderly people in the three orphanages, according to their approximate height. He also bought some toys for each child under five. Ye Tianya made a list of everything he wanted to buy and handed it to Manager Cai, specifying the styles of clothing. He then handed it over to the mall staff to process.

This time, Manager Cai didn't refuse to pay, because Ye Tianya had made it clear that he wasn't buying for himself but for others.

After everything was settled, Ye Tianya took the packed clothes back to the Shangri-La Hotel. The back seat of the van he had already given to Yin Chao was immediately filled to capacity. Ye Tianya drove it back to the End of the Earth, and it was already dusk.

That evening, everyone in the neighborhood mobilized, dividing the purchased items into three piles according to the number of children and the size of the children in the three orphanages. They even found labels and pasted each child's name onto the clothes to avoid sending the wrong clothes. When the four maids heard that the clothes were to be sent to the orphanages for the destitute orphans, they couldn't help but look at everyone in the neighborhood with strange expressions. Something unseen went unnoticed.

After repackaging, sealing, and loading the items into the van parked downstairs, everyone worked enthusiastically until their stomachs rumbled. They exchanged knowing smiles and laughed; it turned out that doing this kind of work could bring such a sense of satisfaction.

After dinner, Ye Tianya grabbed Yin Chao, who was feigning distress, and asked, "What's wrong? Still feeling the pinch of your 100,000 yuan?"

Yin Chao replied with a bitter face, "It's not just a pinch, it hurts my heart! 100,000 yuan! That's a million cents, tens of millions... I've never handled that much money before." He had never actually handled that much money; he probably always transferred over 100,000 yuan via checks or bank transfers. Afterwards,

Ye Tianya laughed and said, "Then you don't need to go tomorrow, we can go by ourselves."

Yin Chao immediately replied, "How can I? Wouldn't that mean you get to do all the glamorous stuff? Of course I have to go and steal the spotlight. I have to go and teach those younger brothers and sisters to study hard and improve every day!"

Ye Tianya shook his head in admiration. This guy was always like this; even if he was happy inside, he always had to make a scene and pretend to be reluctant to part with the money.
Chapter 246: The Two Dragons Appear
As Hu Qing had said, the road to DK County was indeed exceptionally difficult. After a bumpy three-hour journey, and with Yin Chao constantly lamenting the loss of the van Ye Tianya had given him, they finally arrived in DK County around 9:00 AM. DK County was a medium-sized county, roughly the same size as Lin City. Upon arriving, Ye Tianya and the other two had a strange feeling of returning to Lin City. It seemed colder here than in S City. After getting out of the car, Xingye unconsciously pulled her trench coat collar tighter. Ye Tianya walked behind her, smoothed her long hair down to her front, and then turned up the high collar of her trench coat, protecting her neck and face well. Xingye smiled happily at Ye Tianya and said, "Brother, let's ask someone which way the orphanage is."

Ye Tianya nodded and glanced around. A farmer was selling oranges by the roadside, calling out her wares. What touched Ye Tianya was the child on her back, about four or five years old, roughly the same age as Beibei. The child's face was red from the cold, but she looked around curiously. Next to the farmer's orange basket, a little girl of about seven or eight was squatting, shivering from the cold. Every time the farmer called out, the little girl would call out in her childish voice, "Oranges for sale! Big and sweet oranges!" After each call, the little girl would breathe warm air into her hands, but Ye Tianya noticed that her hands were covered in chilblains.

Xingye followed Ye Tianya's gaze and also noticed the mother and her two daughters.

"Brother—, please help them," Xingye whispered to Ye Tianya.

Yin Chao got out of the car and nudged Ye Tianya, saying, "Boss, we can't help those we haven't seen, but we'll help those we have."

Ye Tianya glanced back at Yin Chao; this guy had finally revealed his true feelings and stopped pretending to be reluctant. Seeing the smile in Ye Tianya's eyes, Yin Chao immediately changed his stingy expression and said, "I meant you're paying for it yourself. I'm only being generous because it's not my money."

Ye Tianya didn't argue with him and led Xingye towards the woman selling oranges. Seeing a customer, the woman greeted them warmly, "Sir, Miss, would you like to buy oranges? Big, sweet oranges, seedless, only two yuan a pound."

A seven or eight-year-old girl next to them looked timidly at Ye Tianya and Xingye in their snow-white trench coats and said in a clear voice, "Big brother, big sister, please buy oranges. My mom won't let me eat them, but I can smell how delicious they are..."

The woman quickly glared at the little girl. Seeing that she might let something slip, the little girl quickly shut her mouth, afraid she would let something slip. The woman then smiled and said, "The child is naive, sir. How much do you want?"

Ye Tianya smiled and said, "We want it all. How much do you have here?"

The woman was stunned, asking incredulously, "You...you want it all?"

Ye Tianya nodded, and the woman finally believed him, laughing, "You're in business, aren't you? Buying from me isn't cost-effective. Reselling it won't make you any profit. Let me tell you, there's a wholesale market over there. Go there to buy wholesale; you can save some money."

Ye Tianya and Xingye exchanged a smile. This woman really wasn't a businessman; she was too honest. Little did they know, the peasant woman was afraid they would lower the price by buying wholesale, and she wanted to wait a little longer so the retail price would be higher.

Xingye smiled and said, "Ma'am, we're not in business. We'll take both baskets of oranges, but... could you tell us how to get to the orphanage?"

The woman hesitated for a moment, then happily replied, "The orphanage is just down the street at the next intersection. Turn back and keep going straight. There's a big sign at the entrance; it's easy to see. If you want all the oranges, I'll charge you 1.8 yuan per jin. There are 50 jin here, so give me 90 yuan."

Xingye suddenly asked, "If we buy them, will you still buy them wholesale to resell?"

The woman was stunned for the third time. This was the first time she had encountered such a customer. Business people would naturally buy more to resell after selling out. She nodded subconsciously. Ye Tianya took out four or five bills—he didn't count exactly, but it was dirty money, confiscated from the nightclub—and he didn't mind spending it. He handed it to the woman, saying, "This money should be more than you'd earn in a few days of business. We'll buy your oranges, but you have to promise not to buy any more from here." "Sell! It's too cold. Take the children home to prepare for the New Year. Don't let them get cold."

The woman's mind went blank. She took the money in a daze. Ye Tianya picked up a few oranges from the basket and handed them to the little girl, saying, "Little sister, your mother won't let you eat these. Now, big brother has bought them for you, okay?"

The little girl reached out to take them, but was afraid her mother would scold her. She cautiously looked at her mother, but found that her mother was blankly unresponsive. She turned back to look at Ye Tianya. Ye Tianya saw what she was thinking, stuffed two big oranges into her hands, and held her two little hands, saying, "Little sister, what's your name?"

The little girl liked Ye Tianya very much and was no longer afraid of him. She innocently said, "Big brother, my name is Xiangqin. You and big sister are both very pretty."

Ye Tianya then let go of the little girl's hands. However, no one noticed that the frostbite on the little girl's hands had all healed. The little girl herself didn't notice either, as she was carefully holding the two big oranges in her hands.

Ye Tianya smiled at her "So beautiful," and carried the two baskets of oranges to the front of the van, taking quite a bit of effort to load them into the car. After getting into the car with Xingye, he turned back to the woman who had just come to her senses from the confusion and said, "Sister, go home for the New Year." After saying that, Ye Tianya turned to the little girl and said, "Xiangqin, goodbye."

Xiangqin nodded blankly, and watched Ye Tianya drive away. Only then did she feel something was wrong with her hand. She looked down and excitedly exclaimed, "Mommy, my hand... my hand is better..."

Yin Chao was a little moved and said with emotion, "Boss, I just realized that the feeling of helping others is really... really..." Yin Chao was halfway through his sentence when he saw that Xingye seemed to be waiting for him to finish his sentence, so he immediately changed his words and said, "It's really not that great."

Xingye chuckled and said, "Yin Chao, you are getting more and more... more and more..."

"More and more what?" Yin Chao was nervously waiting to hear Xingye's evaluation of him, but Xingye suddenly changed her words and laughed, mimicking his tone, "You're getting less and less great." Yin Chao immediately made a bitter face again.

"Hello, Director, we're from S City. It's almost Chinese New Year, and it's freezing cold. We brought some clothes for the children, please accept them..." Yin Chao practiced his opening remarks for the orphanage over and over in the car. Xingye, sitting next to him, couldn't help but laugh again, saying, "Yin Chao, stop fooling around. With your abilities, you can just improvise. Look, you've already memorized it ten times. Don't just rattle it off like a memorized text; it'll scare the director and the children."

Yin Chao smiled awkwardly, "I..." "But to avoid tarnishing the reputation of our Huaxia Shuanglong, you know? If you don't perform well on the spot, it could damage your brother's reputation too."

Ye Tianya said while driving, "Compared to the title of general manager of Chaoyue Technology, I'm nothing special. Besides, we didn't come here for the title. And don't bring up your Chaoyue Technology name later."

Yin Chao said "Oh," and continued, "Hello, Dean, we're from S City..."

Ye Tianya and Xingye exchanged a smile and shook their heads helplessly.

Things didn't go as Ye Tianya and the other two expected. Yin Chao's memorized lines had no chance to be used at all, because when Ye Tianya drove to the orphanage, they were surprised to find many people inside, including the last thing he wanted to see—cameras. And these people seemed to be waiting for something, talking quietly with their heads down. Ye

Tianya and Xingye had already gotten out and stood at the door. Their first reaction was to turn around and get back in the car, but it was too late. The cameras inside had already been raised and pointed at them. Ye Tianya, Xingye, and Yin Chao, who got out of the car next, exchanged glances. This was trouble.

A simple-looking middle-aged man quickly came out to greet them. He glanced at the three of them, smiled broadly, and asked, "Are you three friends of Attorney Hu Qing from S City?"

Ye Tianya and his two companions exchanged surprised glances. Ye Tianya spoke first, "Yes, we're from S City. We're friends of Attorney Hu. May I ask who you are...?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "I'm the director of this orphanage. My surname is Xiao. I only learned of your arrival today after receiving a call yesterday from Attorney Hu Qing of the S City Spark Charity Foundation. It's truly touching that you two are so young yet so kind. Please come in,

please come in." Ye Tianya frowned, finally realizing that Hu Qing had orchestrated this beforehand. He glanced at the cameras that had followed them out and whispered to the director, "Director, why are there reporters? Could you ask them to put down their cameras? I don't really like those things."

Xingye followed Ye Tianya's gaze and also noticed the mother and her two daughters.

"Brother—, please help them," Xingye whispered to Ye Tianya.

Yin Chao got out of the car and nudged Ye Tianya, saying, "Boss, we can't help those we haven't seen, but we'll help those we have."

Ye Tianya glanced back at Yin Chao; this guy had finally revealed his true feelings and stopped pretending to be reluctant. Seeing the smile in Ye Tianya's eyes, Yin Chao immediately changed his stingy expression and said, "I meant you're paying for it yourself. I'm only being generous because it's not my money."

Ye Tianya didn't argue with him and led Xingye towards the woman selling oranges. Seeing a customer, the woman greeted them warmly, "Sir, Miss, would you like to buy oranges? Big, sweet oranges, seedless, only two yuan a pound."

A seven or eight-year-old girl next to them looked timidly at Ye Tianya and Xingye in their snow-white trench coats and said in a clear voice, "Big brother, big sister, please buy oranges. My mom won't let me eat them, but I can smell how delicious they are..."

The woman quickly glared at the little girl. Seeing that she might let something slip, the little girl quickly shut her mouth, afraid she would let something slip. The woman then smiled and said, "The child is naive, sir. How much do you want?"

Ye Tianya smiled and said, "We want it all. How much do you have here?"

The woman was stunned, asking incredulously, "You...you want it all?"

Ye Tianya nodded, and the woman finally believed him, laughing, "You're in business, aren't you? Buying from me isn't cost-effective. Reselling it won't make you any profit. Let me tell you, there's a wholesale market over there. Go there to buy wholesale; you can save some money."

Ye Tianya and Xingye exchanged a smile. This woman really wasn't a businessman; she was too honest. Little did they know, the peasant woman was afraid they would lower the price by buying wholesale, and she wanted to wait a little longer so the retail price would be higher.

Xingye smiled and said, "Ma'am, we're not in business. We'll take both baskets of oranges, but... could you tell us how to get to the orphanage?"

The woman hesitated for a moment, then happily replied, "The orphanage is just down the street at the next intersection. Turn back and keep going straight. There's a big sign at the entrance; it's easy to see. If you want all the oranges, I'll charge you 1.8 yuan per jin. There are 50 jin here, so give me 90 yuan."

Xingye suddenly asked, "If we buy them, will you still buy them wholesale to resell?"

The woman was stunned for the third time. This was the first time she had encountered such a customer. Business people would naturally buy more to resell after selling out. She nodded subconsciously. Ye Tianya took out four or five bills—he didn't count exactly, but it was dirty money, confiscated from the nightclub—and he didn't mind spending it. He handed it to the woman, saying, "This money should be more than you'd earn in a few days of business. We'll buy your oranges, but you have to promise not to buy any more from here." "Sell! It's too cold. Take the children home to prepare for the New Year. Don't let them get cold."

The woman's mind went blank. She took the money in a daze. Ye Tianya picked up a few oranges from the basket and handed them to the little girl, saying, "Little sister, your mother won't let you eat these. Now, big brother has bought them for you, okay?"

The little girl reached out to take them, but was afraid her mother would scold her. She cautiously looked at her mother, but found that her mother was blankly unresponsive. She turned back to look at Ye Tianya. Ye Tianya saw what she was thinking, stuffed two big oranges into her hands, and held her two little hands, saying, "Little sister, what's your name?"

The little girl liked Ye Tianya very much and was no longer afraid of him. She innocently said, "Big brother, my name is Xiangqin. You and big sister are both very pretty."

Ye Tianya then let go of the little girl's hands. However, no one noticed that the frostbite on the little girl's hands had all healed. The little girl herself didn't notice either, as she was carefully holding the two big oranges in her hands.

Ye Tianya smiled at her "So beautiful," and carried the two baskets of oranges to the front of the van, taking quite a bit of effort to load them into the car. After getting into the car with Xingye, he turned back to the woman who had just come to her senses from the confusion and said, "Sister, go home for the New Year." After saying that, Ye Tianya turned to the little girl and said, "Xiangqin, goodbye."

Xiangqin nodded blankly, and watched Ye Tianya drive away. Only then did she feel something was wrong with her hand. She looked down and excitedly exclaimed, "Mommy, my hand... my hand is better..."

Yin Chao was a little moved and said with emotion, "Boss, I just realized that the feeling of helping others is really... really..." Yin Chao was halfway through his sentence when he saw that Xingye seemed to be waiting for him to finish his sentence, so he immediately changed his words and said, "It's really not that great."

Xingye chuckled and said, "Yin Chao, you are getting more and more... more and more..."

"More and more what?" Yin Chao was nervously waiting to hear Xingye's evaluation of him, but Xingye suddenly changed her words and laughed, mimicking his tone, "You're getting less and less great." Yin Chao immediately made a bitter face again.

"Hello, Director, we're from S City. It's almost Chinese New Year, and it's freezing cold. We brought some clothes for the children, please accept them..." Yin Chao practiced his opening remarks for the orphanage over and over in the car. Xingye, sitting next to him, couldn't help but laugh again, saying, "Yin Chao, stop fooling around. With your abilities, you can just improvise. Look, you've already memorized it ten times. Don't just rattle it off like a memorized text; it'll scare the director and the children."

Yin Chao smiled awkwardly, "I..." "But to avoid tarnishing the reputation of our Huaxia Shuanglong, you know? If you don't perform well on the spot, it could damage your brother's reputation too."

Ye Tianya said while driving, "Compared to the title of general manager of Chaoyue Technology, I'm nothing special. Besides, we didn't come here for the title. And don't bring up your Chaoyue Technology name later."

Yin Chao said "Oh," and continued, "Hello, Dean, we're from S City..."

Ye Tianya and Xingye exchanged a smile and shook their heads helplessly.

Things didn't go as Ye Tianya and the other two expected. Yin Chao's memorized lines had no chance to be used at all, because when Ye Tianya drove to the orphanage, they were surprised to find many people inside, including the last thing he wanted to see—cameras. And these people seemed to be waiting for something, talking quietly with their heads down.

Ye Tianya and Xingye had already gotten out and stood at the door. Their first reaction was to turn around and get back in the car, but it was too late. The cameras inside had already been raised and pointed at them. Ye Tianya, Xingye, and Yin Chao, who got out of the car next, exchanged glances. This was trouble.

A simple-looking middle-aged man quickly came out to greet them. He glanced at the three of them, then approached with a broad smile and asked, "Are you three friends of Attorney Hu Qing from S City?"

The three of them looked at each other again in surprise. Ye Tianya said, "Yes, we are from S City, and we are indeed Attorney Hu's friends. May I ask who you are...?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "I am the director of this orphanage. My surname is Xiao. I received a call yesterday from Attorney Hu Qing of the S City Spark Charity Foundation, and only then did I learn that you would be coming today. It is truly touching that you two, so young, have such a kind heart. Please come in, please come in."

Ye Tianya frowned, finally realizing that Hu Qing had orchestrated this beforehand.
The director, surnamed Xiao, paused, puzzled as to why the young man disliked reporters. It was a golden opportunity for fame! He quickly realized with a slight disappointment that Ye Tianya and his group might be afraid of losing face after being interviewed because they couldn't donate much. However, the director was understanding; they had come from afar, and regardless of the amount, it was their good intention. Since they disliked reporters, he quietly whispered a few words to the cameramen. The cameramen lowered their cameras with some disappointment, and Ye Tianya followed the director inside.

The orphanage was an old three-story building. Looking up, he noticed that several rooms had broken windows, replaced by cardboard to block the wind and rain. Ye Tianya saw a row of children standing under the eaves on the first floor, all wearing brand-new sportswear—presumably prepared by the orphanage for the children for the New Year. Of course, it was normal for them to be wearing it to avoid being filmed at this time.
Chapter 247 Have Ambition
After Ye Tianya and his two companions were welcomed into the courtyard, the director introduced Ye Tianya to a portly, bureaucratic-looking middle-aged man and a slightly younger middle-aged man beside him: "Three kind people, this is Director Tan from our county's Civil Affairs Bureau, and this is Section Chief Zhang, who is in charge of our social welfare home."

The director stepped forward and shook Ye Tianya's hand, saying, "Welcome to DK. On behalf of the people of DK, I thank you for your contributions and support to DK's social welfare."

Ye Tianya smiled and shook hands with him, inwardly wryly thinking, "We haven't even donated anything yet, and this whole show of force is clearly an attempt to squeeze money out of us." If they've gone to such lengths, they'd feel bad if they didn't donate more. Fortunately, Ye Tianya had already made plans, so he wasn't worried. However, he was somewhat disgusted by these bureaucratic types who constantly claimed to represent the people. If they could represent the people, then the woman selling oranges wouldn't be considered one. Ye Tianya smiled calmly, "Director Tan, you flatter me. I'm an orphan myself and understand the plight of orphans. We're just doing our small part. We brought some gifts for the children; I think we should unload them first." "

Okay, okay," the director said happily. He paid special attention to the words 'gifts.' Even the gifts were left in the car to be 'unloaded,' so the donations afterward must be substantial.

The dean happily followed Ye Tianya to the van at the door. Ye Tianya and Yin Chao dragged a large package out. The dean was overjoyed to see that there were two more large bags inside. Ye Tianya was startled by his expression and quickly closed the car door. He joked, "If I let you take those two bags out, what will happen to the children in the next two counties?"

Seeing the director's disappointed expression, Yin Chao chuckled and said, "Director, these things were all purchased according to the children's heights. We still need to deliver two packages to the two neighboring counties later, and the ones brought here might not fit the children."

The director, realizing Yin Chao had seen through his thoughts, looked somewhat embarrassed. Ye Tianya quickly smoothed things over with a smile, saying, "Director, could you please gather all the children? I don't know if they'll fit if we leave them empty."

The director then took the opportunity to leave. Ye Tianya rolled his eyes at Yin Chao and said, "You little rascal, watch your mouth."

Yin Chao smiled awkwardly and remained silent. Director Tan, seeing Ye Tianya and Yin Chao struggling with the large bag, quickly came over with the section chief to help. They carried it into a room in the orphanage that resembled both an activity room and a classroom. A dozen or so children sat quietly there, staring at Ye Tianya, Yin Chao, and Xingye. Their gazes were complex. Perhaps no one here understood the meaning behind those looks better than Ye Tianya and Xingye.

Ye Tianya and Yin Chao opened the package together. When the dean, the bureau chief, the section chief, and the reporters who were holding cameras but dared not film saw the contents, their eyes lit up. The down jackets inside were high-end; very few stores in DK City sold such items. A few reporters, out of professional habit, wanted to pick up their cameras, but Yin Chao stopped them.

Xingye picked up a down jacket, glanced at the tag, and called out to the dozen or so children below, "Xiao Minglong..."

Xingye's voice startled the dean and the children. They didn't understand how Xingye knew their names. However, one child stood up; he was about twelve years old, probably a middle school student.

Seeing that he seemed a little hesitant to approach, Xingye beckoned to him and said, "Little brother, come here quickly and try on these clothes to see if they fit."

Xingye's sincere smile made the boy come forward. Xingye personally opened the clothes, put them on him, and looked him up and down, saying happily, "Perfect! I bought them according to your height. They're great. Just right. Xiao Minglong, are they warm?"

Seeing the sincerity in Xingye's eyes, the boy nodded, touched, and said, "Very warm, thank you, sister."

Xingye smiled and said, "Alright, there's another tracksuit in this bag, also bought according to your height. See if you like it."

Xiao Minglong took the bag without even looking at it and said gratefully, "I like it."

Xingye smiled and gently stroked her hair, saying, "Go downstairs and study hard."

Xiao Minglong went downstairs. Yin Chao seemed to be annoyed that Xingye had taken his long-memorized phrase, "Study hard and make progress every day," and picked up a bag as well. He looked at the name on it and read, "Xiao Mingsong..."

Ye Tianya couldn't help but ask, "Why are they all surnamed Xiao?"

The director sighed beside him, "These unfortunate children didn't even know their own surnames when they were sent to the institute, so I changed them all to my surname."

Ye Tianya was relieved and felt even more respect for the director. Watching the children come up one by one to receive their clothes, Ye Tianya picked up the three sets of dark-colored thermal clothes that remained, saying, "Director, there are still three elderly people in the orphanage, right? Please give these three sets of clothes to them."

The director gratefully replied, "Thank you, I thank you on their behalf."

Ye Tianya smiled slightly, took out a check from his pocket, and handed it over, saying, "Director, here is two hundred thousand yuan. It's a small token of our appreciation. Please accept it on behalf of the children. It's the New Year, so everyone can have a good holiday and buy some school supplies when school starts."

Two hundred thousand?

The bureau chiefs and reporters nearby were slightly surprised. They had gone through layers of applications to receive the 100,000 yuan from the Spark Charity Foundation, but ultimately failed to get it. Yet this young man had offered 200,000 yuan so readily. The dean's hand, reaching out to take the check, trembled slightly: "Thank you, thank you on behalf of the children. You are truly kind people."

Ye Tianya smiled slightly, then suddenly looked at the group of children below who had all received their clothes and said, "I know what you are thinking right now. Ten years ago, I was just like you, sitting here receiving donations from kind people. I think I understand what you are thinking, because back then… I went through the same thing. Your dean just said we were kind..." "I don't think I'm a good person. I'm not a kind person, but I'm an ambitious person. I've walked through those days of bowing my head, just like you, but I've never forgotten my ambition to one day raise my head. I've also lamented the coldness of the world and the indifference of human relationships, and hated those snobbish people who gave us disdain. But I also know that they have no obligation to respect us unless we deserve their respect. We're all human, there's no inherent hierarchy, but the effort we put in can create different levels of achievement. They're too young to understand what I'm saying. You two, you must be high school students, right? Do you understand what I mean?" Ye Tianya said, looking at the two oldest boys in the group.

The two boys' eyes were unusually bright as they looked at Ye Tianya and said firmly, "We understand."

Ye Tianya smiled with satisfaction, "Good, when they grow up, tell them what you understand, okay?"

"Okay!" the two boys replied in unison.

Ye Tianya then withdrew his gaze and turned to say goodbye to the dean and the bureau chief. However, the dean was so excited that he refused to let Ye Tianya and the other two leave, insisting that they stay for dinner and encourage the children. Ye Tianya had no choice but to decline, saying, "Dean, we still have to rush to the two neighboring counties and then return to S City. We are in a hurry, so we won't have dinner."
He glanced at the cameras that had followed them out and whispered to the dean, "Dean, why are there reporters here? Can you ask them to put the cameras down? I don't really like those things."

Then Ye Tianya's voice came from the television: "I know what you're thinking right now. Ten years ago, I was just like you, sitting here receiving donations from kind people. I think I understand what you're thinking because back then... I went through the same thing... I went through those days of bowing my head, just like you, but I never forgot my ambition to one day raise my head. I also lamented the coldness of the world and the indifference of human relationships, and hated those snobbish people who gave us disdain. But I also know that they have no obligation to respect us unless we deserve their respect. We are all human, there are no inherent hierarchy, but the effort we put in can be categorized into different levels..."

Ye Tianya cursed inwardly, "Damn reporters, why did they have to show this stuff?"

After the recording, the announcer continued, "I think that for these unfortunate children, the words of stock market guru Ye Tianya are more important than the hundreds of thousands he donated. Yes, the world we live in is not absolutely perfect; there will always be some snobbish people. Although the children are unfortunate, they are fortunate that our society still has kind-hearted people like Huaxia Shuanglong." Upon receiving this news, our editors were deeply moved, and all our staff immediately launched an unprecedented donation campaign. In just three hours, our station raised over 100,000 yuan in donations and a large amount of supplies, which were then handed over to [the station's] long-standing [organization/organization]. "The Spark Foundation, based on charity, will distribute this money to those in need on our behalf. This station also appeals to all sectors of society to pay attention to these unfortunate children. Perhaps tomorrow, they will become pillars of our society, just like the stock market guru Ye Tianya."

Ye Tianya began to feel Yin Chao's body trembling with excitement. He sighed inwardly, thinking that this must be another trick played by Hu Qing. The media was hyping up their news. Since it could make Yin Chao so excited, it was conceivable that others would also be affected. However, these media outlets, in order to expand their influence, had made him a pillar of society with just a few words. Besides a bitter smile, Ye Tianya could only sigh.

Ye Tianya figured he could let the media do what they wanted, since he'd already been through a lot of trouble. But the announcer wouldn't let him off the hook, continuing, "Furthermore, when Ye Tianya left the orphanage, he promised a child that if that child got into Huaxia University, he would cover all tuition and living expenses. Unfortunately, we didn't have the chance to ask if Mr. Ye would treat other orphans equally well if they got into Huaxia University, and cover their tuition and living expenses as well. We hope that after seeing this report, Mr. Ye can give these unfortunate children an answer."

Ye Tianya was dumbfounded. It turned out the media was trying to blackmail him. Now, if he didn't reply, he risked disappointing countless orphans. But if he did reply, he worried that the media would only exacerbate this bottomless pit. Laughter came from behind him. Ye Tianya turned around to look at Yin Chao, only to see the guy grinning smugly. Ye Tianya was annoyed. He glared at him, picked up the phone next to the sofa, thought for a moment, then put it down. He reached out to Yin Chao and said, "Give me your phone."

"What? What are you doing with your phone?" Yin Chao had a bad feeling and instinctively reached out to cover his phone.

But he couldn't avoid it. Before he could react, Ye Tianya was already beside him. He felt a numbness in his arm, and his whole hand went limp. Ye Tianya snatched the phone from his hand. Ye Tianya didn't use Haijiao Tianya's phone number because he was afraid that if he did, the TV station would remember it, and Haijiao Tianya would never have peace again. Yin Chao also sensed that if this number was used, all calls looking for Ye Tianya would end up on his phone. If he couldn't find Ye Tianya, he would be in trouble if he found him. So, ignoring his weakness, he lunged at Ye Tianya and begged, "No, boss, you'll get me killed like this! Give me back my phone..."

Ye Tianya only wanted to teach him a lesson because of his gloating look. Seeing how desperate he was, he gave the phone back and used his own phone to call Hu Qing.

Upon receiving the call, Hu Qing immediately laughed and said, "Tianya, congratulations! You're a celebrity again!"

Ye Tianya retorted irritably, "Celebrity my foot! This is all your doing, isn't it? Let me tell you, the TV station is actually asking me for a response. This is all your doing, isn't it? You'd better clean up this mess, or you'll be in big trouble."

"Hey, hey, hey, how am I supposed to clean it up? They want your response, not mine." Hu Qing implicitly admitted that Ye Tianya was behind it all.

Ye Tianya said angrily, "Can't you think of a way? Once the TV station broadcasts this, your Spark Foundation will definitely make a fortune again. You figure it out yourself." Ye Tianya hung up the phone after saying that, not giving Hu Qing any trouble. Who knows what kind of advertisements this philanthropist will use him for in the future?

In Chapter 249,

Hu Qing surprisingly agreed to the TV station's request. He even represented Ye Tianya's private lawyer and spokesperson, stating that Ye Tianya's promise to Xiao Mingjun in DK County also applied to children in other orphanages. Although Ye Tianya was angry at the trouble Hu Qing had caused, this was the only way to resolve the matter. His words encouraging the children in DK County had been published in the media, and if he were to refuse to cover the tuition and living expenses of other children after they were admitted to China, it would be a huge blow to them. Ye Tianya had no choice but to accept it.

Until New Year's Eve, Ye Tianya didn't visit Ye Yingjie and his wife. Leaving Yin Chao and his mother at Haijiao Tianya was also a way of preventing Ye Yingjie and his wife from finding them again. Children love the New Year, and Ye Beibei became the happiest child at Haijiao Tianya. Firecrackers were not allowed in the city, but this was not a restriction at Haijiao Tianya. Since firecrackers couldn't be bought in the city, Yin Chao specially bought some when he went to DK County. On this day, he felt like he had returned to his childhood, taking Beibei to the lawn to blow up the snow. Yang Meng and four workers decorated the entire Haijiao Tianya. Nangong Xiong even wore his Tang suit, which he hadn't worn for many years. Lin Siyin, Li Lanyu, and Nangong Qian'er curiously learned to make dumplings from Yin's mother and Yang Ying. The entire Haijiao Tianya was surrounded by the festive joy. Eating New Year's Eve dinner together and watching the Spring Festival Gala together, the atmosphere at Haijiao Tianya during the Spring Festival could be described as harmonious and joyful.

After seven days of carefree fun at the ends of the earth, everyone finally got busy again on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year. Unlike before, Lin Siyin and Li Lanyu walked to work with much lighter steps. Nangong Qian'er also went to help out; although she wasn't studying real estate, as the future successor of the Nangong family, she had plenty of exposure to the subject. Nangong Xiong left the ends of the earth to handle his own affairs, while Ye Tianya took Xingye to Qingfeng Building, firstly to settle accounts with Hu Qing, and secondly to send Xingye to Hu Qing's law firm for an internship. Of course,

Yin Chao, who was also going to work at Qingfeng Building, accompanied Ye Tianya. After Yin's mother took a taxi back to the ends of the earth, Yin Chao went directly to work at Qingfeng with Ye Tianya and his group.

Seeing the two men enter the office with unfriendly expressions, Hu Qing immediately sensed something was wrong. However, he quickly spotted Xingye behind them. His eyes darted around, and he excitedly tried to squeeze between Ye Tianya and Yin Chao to greet Xingye: "Xiao Ye, Happy New Year! Long time no see..."

"It has been a long time, hasn't it? Attorney Hu, do you remember how long it's been? It seems like we met last year, didn't we?" Yin Chao and Ye Tianya tacitly reached out to stop Hu Qing, Yin Chao speaking first in a lukewarm tone.

Hu Qing chuckled awkwardly, "Well... um... oh right, it was just after the New Year. We met last year, that's right, hehe, that's right."

"Ah, it's been a long time already. No wonder time heals all wounds. Even Attorney Hu has started betraying us behind our backs, hasn't he?" Yin Chao said with a double meaning.

"Not at all, not at all. Wasn't I advertising for you? Now, not only is Tianya a celebrity, but you are too, aren't you? Most importantly... your Beyond Software has been mentioned by TV stations twice. It's like giving you a free prime-time advertisement. If you don't believe me, go back to the company and see. I guarantee you'll get tens of thousands more orders." Hu Qing began to attack one by one, trying to win Yin Chao's forgiveness first.

Yin Chao, seeing Beyond Software's two news appearances during the Spring Festival, began to waver. He snorted, "Do you know that I prepared my lines for hours, but because of your betrayal, I had no chance to perform them. And I was even laughed at by Xiao Ye... no... no, I was given pointers by Xiao Ye. Couldn't you have given me a heads-up?"

When Yin Chao mentioned Xing Ye, he suddenly sensed that Xing Ye was about to make a move and quickly changed his words.

Yin Chao's tone softened slightly, and Hu Qing's eyes flashed with secret joy as he hurriedly said, "Definitely, definitely, I'll definitely let you know in advance next time..."

"What... there's a next time? Are you planning to betray us again?" Yin Chao immediately exploded, grabbing Hu Qing's collar angrily.

Ye Tianya knew that Xueya Shuangye's financial flows were being monitored by someone with ulterior motives. He carefully avoided any possibility of being monitored, mobilizing the funds he had dispersed into hundreds of accounts last year, and began to slowly encircle the Lan and Mo families. He didn't want to rely too much on Lisi, so he gave up the shortcut of asking Lisi for help and took the initiative to handle many things. This was partly due to his independent personality. On the other hand, he also wanted to hone his skills. He locked himself in his office all morning to work. He only stopped when Gu Letian came to call him to have lunch together.

He didn't go to the restaurant on the second floor of Qingfeng with Gu Letian and the others, but went downstairs to Hu Qing's law firm. Today, someone in Qingfeng would have lunch with him; Xingye was probably already waiting for him downstairs.

After going downstairs, Ye Tianya discovered that Xingye was in considerable trouble. The most talked-about topic in Qingfeng Building recently was the love story of Xingye and Ye Tianya. Whether on the old Huaxia campus or now in Qingfeng Building, their love was a legendary tale. As the chairman of Qingfeng Group, Ye Tianya's influence in the building meant that almost everyone knew about his relationship with Xingye. The story of their white hair that night had been told countless times, yet people still talked about it with great interest. The side effect of this was that Xingye also became a celebrity in Qingfeng Building. Before, when Xingye was 'amnesiac,' people had no chance to know him, but today, suddenly hearing the news that Xingye had come to work in Qingfeng Building, the news spread throughout the entire building in just one morning. When Ye Tianya went downstairs, he found that the area in front of Hu Qing's law firm was completely blocked. He saw Xingye stuck at the entrance, unable to go in or out, anxiously looking up at the stairwell every now and then. Clearly, they were waiting for him to come down.

Seeing Xingye being stared at like a zoo animal, Ye Tianya felt a surge of anger. Unconsciously, an invisible aura emanated from him.

Those on the outermost edge of the group were the first to sense this aura; they suddenly felt a chill, yet also a burning sensation, on their backs. Turning around, they saw Ye Tianya's indifferent expression. They instinctively made way for him, respectfully addressing him as "Chairman Ye."

Ye Tianya nodded to them and walked straight towards Xingye. With each step he took, those blocking his path unconsciously made way for him, until he reached her. A smile appeared on his indifferent face.

"Have you been waiting long? I almost forgot the time," Ye Tianya said apologetically, taking Xingyu's hand.

Xingye gently shook her head, glancing at the layers of strangers silently watching them. Feeling a little uncomfortable, she whispered, "Brother, let's go into the office and sit for a while."

Ye Tianya glanced at the curious onlookers, who showed no sign of leaving, and reluctantly retreated into Hu Qing's office. Hu Qing was still engrossed in his documents, seemingly oblivious to what was happening outside. Seeing his focused expression, Ye Tianya deliberately coughed and said, "Hilton, the deluxe suite..."

Upon hearing the words "Hilton," Hu Qing almost reflexively stood up, his expression changing. Xingye couldn't help but chuckle, saying, "Brother, Brother Hu is really stingy with his money. He was calculating the bill for a standard room this morning, and you're asking for a deluxe private room. Be careful his heart can't take it."

Hu Qing's face turned pale and then red, saying, "That's right, that's right, Tianya, let me tell you, my heart isn't good. I can't stand being scared. If you really scare me to death, that's premeditated murder, a murder charge... No, I have to draft a will so that no one knows I was scared to death by Ye Tianya when I die..."

Ye Tianya was speechless with anger. Looking at Hu Qing's expression, it really seemed like

he was waiting for Ye Tianya to scare him to death. The crowd outside finally dispersed when they saw Xingye, and with the security guards from downstairs intervening, Ye Tianya was finally able to take Xingye downstairs for lunch. However, the feeling of being stared at the whole way made them both very uncomfortable. Ye Tianya had this experience before. At first, he always had to fully satisfy people's curiosity. After a while, things would calm down, just like when he first became the chairman of Qingfeng.

As they walked downstairs and into the restaurant, everyone who saw them stopped and stared for a few seconds. Xingye initially managed to remain calm and smile, but once inside the restaurant, suddenly being stared at by everyone, she couldn't help but hide behind Ye Tianya. Ye Tianya had no choice but to lead her into a private room to avoid their curious gazes and have a peaceful lunch.

Ye Tianya didn't tell Xingye about his plans to deal with the Lan and Mo families. He didn't even tell the employees at Xueya Shuangye; at least not before taking action. He wouldn't tell anyone, especially not Xingye, putting her in a difficult position. If the Lan family hadn't joined forces with the Mo family, Ye Tianya might have let the Lan family off the hook after returning from Tianya Valley, but his resolve to deal with the Mo family would remain unwavering. Since the Lan family had allied with the Mo family, Ye Tianya couldn't care less. Mo Jun had to return to the country to face punishment; that was Ye Tianya's bottom line.

"Xiaoye, tell your brother, what did Hu Qing teach you to do this morning?" Ye Tianya asked Xingye with a smile after they sat down.

Xingye smiled sweetly, "It's nothing much. He just had me sit next to his desk and watch him process a few inheritance distribution documents. He explained each step to me and talked about other possible situations and solutions. I'm not very good at handling them yet, I'm just learning from him. Brother, Brother Hu is so funny, he's been nagging about you and Yin Chao extorting him all morning, it's hilarious."

Ye Tianya laughed, "If I don't teach him a lesson, he'll become lawless in the future. But considering how diligently he taught you, maybe I'll reduce his workload. These days, students all want to reduce their workload, hehe..."

At this moment, the waiter knocked on the door and respectfully asked, "Chairman Ye, Miss Xingye, what would you like to eat?"

Ye Tianya looked up and smiled, "Mine is the usual, and Xiaoye's is the same as mine, just a small amount is fine."

The waiter was slightly taken aback. He was an employee of the catering department of Qingfeng Group and had served his chairman many times before, but this was the first time he had seen the usually cold Ye Tianya smile like this. However, he was professionally trained and quickly recovered, agreeing and leaving.

Xingye laughed, "Brother, you don't look like a chairman at all, so why are they all so respectful to you?"

Ye Tianya deliberately put on a dignified expression and said, "Do I look like a chairman now?"

Xingye looked him over seriously and laughed, "That's more like it. Chairman Ye, you're calling me the same as you? I want to see what this chairman eats all the time."

Ye Tianya laughed, "Don't worry, it's all your favorites. You're a star in Qingfeng Building now, how could I dare to neglect you? See those two guys who bumped into cars while carrying plates? That's all because of you."

Xingye laughed, "What? Because of me? Luckily it was me. If Sister Xue and Sister Shuang were here, the whole restaurant would be turned upside down. Brother, let me ask you something. Did you invest in Yin Chao's Beyond Technology?"

Ye Tianya paused slightly, puzzled, and asked, "No, it's all his own money. Why do you ask?"

Xingye said, "I saw a document at Brother Hu's place today. It's about Beyond Technology. You own 49% of Beyond Technology."

"What!" Ye Tianya jumped up, so surprised he almost knocked over the teacup on the table. He was quite shocked. If it was true, then Yin Chao had been keeping this from him again. And Hu Qing knew about it too. These two were up to something again. Although Ye Tianya was the one who benefited, he was unwilling to take over Chaoyue's shares for no reason, as Yin Chao had built them up from scratch.

Ye Tianya sat down again, shook his head, and smiled wryly, "It seems I need to keep a close eye on these two guys, otherwise I really don't know how many tricks they'll pull."

Xingye then asked, "What do you plan to do, brother? Return the shares to Yin Chao?"

Ye Tianya nodded, "Of course, do you think I'd have the nerve to reap without sowing?"

Xingye laughed, "You don't necessarily have to reap without sowing, but Yin Chao isn't very reliable. Beyond Software is already quite famous nationwide and even internationally because of the algorithm you gave him. I think it'll definitely go public in a few years. I'm worried that Yin Chao might mess things up because he's not reliable enough. So I suggest you pretend you don't know anything, and just let him hold onto those shares temporarily. If any unexpected events happen, you'll be much better able to help him. Anyway, returning the shares to him is just a matter of paperwork, isn't it?"

This chapter is delivered ahead of schedule, but I have an exam tomorrow morning, so tomorrow's chapter might be uploaded later, possibly even tomorrow night. Please wait a little longer tomorrow, friends. Thank you for your support!

Chapter 251 Ye

Tianya thought about it and agreed. Yin Chao, that lively fellow, was clever but lacked composure. If something unexpected happened in the future, it would be much easier for him to operate as a shareholder. As long as he wasn't greedy for the money, what did it matter whether it was in Yin Chao's hands or not? After thinking it through, Ye Tianya smiled. Although he wouldn't take the 49% stake, it at least proved he hadn't misjudged Yin Chao. He hadn't expected Yin Chao to quietly give him 49% of the shares. This was like an affirmation of his previous trust and cultivation of Yin Chao.

Xingye was also pleased with Yin Chao's actions; after all, for Ye Tianya, Yin Chao was his best brother.

After lunch, Ye Tianya continued to move his spare cash, while Xingye returned to Hu Qing's law firm. After subtly transferring all the funds, Ye Tianya hacked into the E country's government system, spending considerable effort to find the schedule of one of the spokespeople. He found the time they would release the news. Only then did he exit and let out a long sigh. This time, he wanted to make the Lan and Mo families lose at least 30% of their funds. He would then use that 30% to make even more money from the copper price fluctuations. Everything was ready except for the final push. Ye Tianya looked up at the time; it was past closing time again. He cursed himself for being careless; Xingye must be getting impatient again. He hurriedly tidied his desk, turned off his computer, and went out to meet Xingye. But as soon as he opened the door, he saw Xingye standing there chatting and laughing with Lin Liqin and others from the Industrial Department.

"Brother, are you done?" Xingye immediately stepped forward and asked gently upon seeing Ye Tianya.

Lin Liqin laughed, "Tianya, do you know how long Xingye has been waiting for you here? Almost half an hour! But she absolutely refused to let us knock on your door. She's such a gentle and considerate girl. No wonder you cherish her so much. But Tianya, if I were a man, I would definitely love her even more than you."

Xingye blushed slightly and said, "Miss Lin, you're teasing me. I'm not as good as you say. It's just that my brother spoils me."

Ye Tianya wasn't used to joking with Lin Liqin and the others. He smiled slightly and said, "Thank you, Minister Lin, for spending so much time with Xiaoye. I'm really sorry to have taken up so much of your time."

Lin Liqin laughed, "It's alright. Others don't even have a chance to talk to Xingye. I saw it for myself at noon today."

Ye Tianya smiled again, exchanged a few polite words, and then went downstairs with Xingye and Lin Liqin. Down in the basement, Lin Liqin, the company's department head, had her own Audi parked in the garage. After waving goodbye to Ye Tianya and Xingye and getting into her car, she couldn't help but feel envious as she watched Xingye and Ye Tianya start Xingye's white two-seater sports car.

"After all the hardship, it's finally over. Heaven has eyes. It was worth it, Xingye," Lin Liqin muttered to herself before starting her Audi and leaving the garage.

Ye Tianya and Xingye drove straight back to Haijiao Tianya after leaving the garage, unaware that a red sports car was parked in front of Qingfeng Building, with a beautiful girl staring intently at the entrance. She ignored the lewd and curious glances from passersby, but as the people leaving Qingfeng Building began to depart, she still hadn't seen the person she was waiting for, and she started to get anxious. Just then, a security guard approached and said, "Miss, long-term parking is not allowed here. Your car has exceeded the parking time limit. If you plan to park for a long time, please park in the underground garage."

The girl was initially dismissive of the guard, but seeing his politeness, she had no choice but to say, "I'm waiting for someone. Is there a Xueya Shuangye Company inside your Qingfeng Building?"

"Yes, but Xueya Shuangye Company's closing time is more than half an hour past. Hasn't the person you're looking for come down yet? Should I ask my colleagues upstairs to check if they're working overtime?" the guard said politely.

"Okay, okay, thank you. I'm looking for Ye Tianya of Xueya Shuangye," the girl said happily.

Upon hearing the name Ye Tianya, the guard immediately became respectful and said, "I'm sorry, Miss, Chairman Ye just left. He left the building about three minutes ago. He drove out of the garage and didn't come out through the main entrance."

"What? He left?" the girl said in surprise.

The security guard confirmed, "Yes, miss, Chairman Ye doesn't drive through here after leaving the garage; he goes straight home from the side. Alright, miss, if no one else is waiting, please move your car."

The girl turned back to open the car door in frustration, then suddenly stopped and turned back to ask, "What did you just say? Chairman Ye? What Chairman Ye? I'm looking for Ye Tianya, you haven't made a mistake, have you?"

The security guard smiled and said, "That's right, Chairman Ye is Ye Tianya, the chairman who owns 85% of Qingfeng Group's shares. Do you have any other questions, miss?"

The girl murmured incredulously, "What… chairman? 8… 85% of Qingfeng Group…?"

She continued muttering as she turned back to open the car door. Seeing her distraught appearance, the security guard reminded her, "Miss, please concentrate while driving. If you'd like to leave your contact information, I can pass it on to Chairman Ye when he comes to work tomorrow." The girl regained her composure and shook

her head, saying, "No need, I'll come back to see him tomorrow." With that, she got into her sports car and drove away. The security guard looked at the girl and couldn't help but laugh, muttering to himself, "The leader is indeed the leader, as expected of a handsome and dashing man. The peach blossoms are blooming again..."

"What did you say? Ye Tianya is the chairman of Qingfeng Group?" Du Wei was also startled when he heard this news.

Du Qing, still somewhat dazed, said, "I was wondering, wasn't he just a lowly employee at Xueya Shuangye? How did he suddenly become the chairman of Qingfeng Group? But... but that security guard was quite certain, saying that Ye Tianya owns 85% of Qingfeng Group's shares... Dad, what's wrong? Dad, are you even listening to me?" Du Qing couldn't help but remind her father, who was lost in thought.

Du Wei exclaimed and came back to his senses, but his face lit up with joy. "Qing'er, this is a great opportunity! Hahaha, what do you think of this kid Tianya?"

"What do you mean, what do you think?" Du Qing blushed and lowered her head, scolding him playfully.

Du Wei laughed, "What do you mean, 'what do you mean'? What else could it be? I even mentioned a childhood betrothal to his father when he was little. He's very likely to be one of the shareholders of Xueya Shuangye, and he'll take over your Uncle Ye's business in the future. He'll also be a director of Pacific Auto Dealership. Not to mention, he's already the chairman of Qingfeng. What's wrong, you're blushing, hehe..."

Du Qing blushed and retorted, "Dad, what are you saying... You know his girlfriend is Xingye."

Du Wei confidently laughed, "So what if she's Xingye? Do you think my Du family's entire fortune as dowry wouldn't be enough for her? Don't you even have the confidence to beat her?"

Du Qing was slightly lost in thought for a moment, then blushed and shyly went into her room. Du Wei was left outside calculating how much profit Xueya Shuangye's investment in Boshi would bring him. Then he began to plot how to snatch Ye Tianya, this golden son-in-law, away from Xingye.

Xingye laughed, "You don't necessarily need something for nothing, but Yin Chao isn't very reliable. Beyond Software is already quite famous nationwide and even internationally because of the algorithm you gave him. I think it'll definitely go public in a few years. I'm worried that Yin Chao might mess things up because he's not reliable enough. So I suggest you pretend you don't know anything and just let him hold onto those shares temporarily. If anything unexpected happens, you'll be much better able to help him. Anyway, transferring the shares back to him is just a matter of paperwork, isn't it?"

This chapter is delivered ahead of schedule, but I have an exam tomorrow morning, so tomorrow's chapter might be uploaded later, possibly even tomorrow night. Please be patient tomorrow morning. Thank you for your support!
