Chapter 50: I Don’t Want the Shares

Ye Yao even thought she wouldn’t be surprised if Huo Buyu suddenly had a fiancée one day. After all, his life partner had to come from a compatible background. A prince was worthy of a princess. Huo Buyu was a noble prince, but it was a pity that she wasn’t a beautiful princess. At the thought of this, Ye Yao felt a rare sense of melancholy.
The morning military training ended very quickly. Finally, Ye Yao arranged to have a meal with Huo Buyu. Just as she walked out of the school gate, a car pulled up in front of her. Ye Tianhao got out of the car and looked at Ye Yao with a smile. “Ye Yao, have you eaten? Daddy will treat you to a meal.”
Ye Yao raised an eyebrow. It was only the first day of school and Ye Tianhao was already coming after her? She said with a wave of her hand, “I haven’t eaten yet. Let’s go then, if you want to give me a treat.” Then, she got into Ye Tianhao’s car. However, what Ye Yao did not know was that Lin Qingning was behind them and had recorded this scene with her phone.
After getting into the car, Ye Yao sent Huo Buyu a voice message. “I ran into my father and won’t be able to meet you for lunch.”
Ye Tianhao did not dare to look for Ye Yao these few days. He had heard from Zhou Chen and Ye Sui that Ye Yao had hooked up with Gao Qiao and was his woman. He did not dare to provoke anyone in the Gao family because of their status in the capital. But today, Ye Sui had called him, crying and saying that Ye Yao was not Gao Qiao’s girlfriend at all. Gao Qiao had said in school that he and Ye Yao were only ordinary friends. The girl also complained that she had been bullied by Ye Yao in school. Hence Ye Tianhao had rushed over immediately. Some things just could not be delayed anymore.
After a moment, Huo Buyu replied to Ye Yao: Got it.
Ye Tianhao drove Ye Yao to the underground restaurant and selected a good seat. He started, “Ye Yao, it’s been so long since we last met. You seem to have lost weight. Have you not been eating well?”
Ye Yao laughed. “I’m considered fat now. Losing weight was when I was overseas. At that time, I only had one meal every few days.”
Ye Tianhao felt guilty at her words and hurriedly said, “I know you girls love to look good, but you can’t just think about losing weight. The school I chose for you back then was a very good one. Why didn’t you appreciate it?”
Ye Yao sneered. Ye Tianhao knew very well what life was like for her overseas, but since he insisted on feigning ignorance, so be it. Anyway, she was very clear on some things.
Seeing that Ye Yao was silent and had no intention of pursuing the past, Ye Tianhao quickly struck while the iron was hot. “Ye Yao, did you get another bank card?”
“No,” she replied.
Ye Tianhao continued, “Why aren’t you applying for a replacement? I’m still waiting for your bank card. The money in it is very important to me. Hurry up and apply for a replacement, alright?”
Resting her chin on her hand, Ye Yao looked at Ye Tianhao emotionlessly and said, “Are you going to disown me if I don’t get a replacement bank card?”
Ye Tianhao’s expression froze. “Why would I do that? You’ll always be Daddy’s good daughter.”
“Well then…” Ye Yao smiled. “I won’t apply for a bank card.”
“How can that do!” Ye Tianhao immediately panicked and he almost pleaded, “Ye Yao, I’ve just arrived in the imperial capital. It’s not easy to do business here. The funds in the card are really important. Can you bear to see everything I’ve done go to waste? Hurry up and reapply for the bank card. Just take it that I’m begging you, okay?”
Ye Yao was unmoved. Instead, she called the waiter over and ordered a few dishes. Ye Tianhao had no choice but to wait for Ye Yao to finish eating. When she was finally done, he urged, “We’ll go get a bank card later. Daddy will go with you.”
Ye Yao smiled at Ye Tianhao and suddenly waved at someone behind him.
“Uncle, over here.”
Ye Tianhao froze and turned around to see Yang Youwei standing behind him.
Ye Yao gestured for Yang Youwei to sit down. Then she said, “Uncle, Dad, since the two of you are here, you can be my witness. Uncle has managed the company very well, and I’ve already grown up and can support myself. The shares Grandpa left me previously have never been of any use to me, hence I’m thinking of returning them to Uncle, so that Dad won’t keep urging me to reapply for the bank card.”
Before Yang Youwei could say anything, Ye Tianhao snapped. “Ye Yao, what nonsense are you spouting! The shares were given to you so they’re yours. How can there be a reason to return them?! If you don’t want this money, I can help you keep it.” He was about to go crazy. Previously, the dividends from the shares were nothing much.. It was only two million yuan a month, but now, the company’s annual dividends and other profits were almost three hundred million yuan! This was a huge sum of money!
