Chapter 623: The Young Miss of the Ye Family in the Capital

After wiping her fingers, Gu Jin disposed of the tissue in the trash can, treating it as though she had been handling a contaminant rather than gripping Ye Qingzi’s wrist.
The sight only served to further stoke Ye Qingzi’s ire, though the pain in her wrist and palm kept her from acting recklessly.
Clutching her reddened hand and grimacing in discomfort, she leveled a sharp gaze at Gu Yang and the others. “Do you even know who I am?”
The Gu Family may have amassed wealth relatively recently in Jin City’s entertainment industry, but in Ye Qingzi’s eyes, they were merely nouveau riche, pale in comparison to established families like the hundred-year-old Ye Family in the capital.
Gu Yang regarded Ye Qingzi with a mixture of pity and patience. “If you head out, take a left and catch Line 9 to Jin City Psychiatric Hospital. You’re welcome to visit.”
Ye Qingzi’s eyes widened at the implication. “Are you insinuating I’m insane?”
Upon hearing Gu Yang’s response, Gu Jin arched an eyebrow, a sense of déjà vu washing over her. Recalling her previous encounter with Ye Qingzi at the military hospital, she vaguely remembered Xiao Yize making a similar remark.
Gu Yang’s gaze remained clear and innocent as he spoke with sincere earnestness. “Madam, are you aware of your condition? With the advancements in modern medicine, there’s still hope for treatment.”
Preferring direct confrontation, Big Boss’s sister remained cool and composed, leaving the task of reprimanding others to her!
However, hearing Gu Yang’s earnest but misinterpreted response, Ye Qingzi’s ire surged. “I am the eldest daughter of the Ye family in the capital.”
The Ye family in the capital held a distinct status as one of the eight noble families, occupying a prominent position in the societal hierarchy, second only to the four top aristocratic families.
Similarly, the Lin family in the capital, Lin Ran’s lineage, also ranked among the eight affluent families.
Upon Lin Ran’s arrival in Jin City, he had been treated as an esteemed guest by the local elite families. Almost unanimously, these families had instructed their younger generations not to provoke his, even if they couldn’t win his favor.
Ye Qingzi thought that if she revealed her background, Gu Yang and the other two would realize that she had caused trouble and panic.
Yet, the trio remained composed, devoid of any surprise or fear. This lack of reaction suffocated Ye Qingzi.
Turning her attention to the manager of Jinyang Pavilion, she lifted her chin haughtily. “Remove them. I demand this table.”
Gu Yang continued eating at a leisurely pace. Upon hearing Ye Qingzi’s demand, she looked at her with surprise, rendered momentarily speechless.
This eldest daughter of the Ye family seemed utterly oblivious. Couldn’t she see the deference in the manager’s gaze toward Big Sister?
To think she dared to assert her dominance in Big Sister’s domain!
The manager was at a loss for words.
Feng Jue cocked his head, directing a pointed glance at Gu Jin, seated diagonally across from him. “If you don’t dispose of the garbage, are you content to let it mar the surroundings?”
Observing Gu Yang reaching out to clear the dishes near her, Gu Jin simply slid the entire plate in front of her sister. With casual nonchalance, she remarked, “Tell her to leave.”
She didn’t even spare a glance at Ye Qingzi.
Promptly, the manager stepped forward. “Miss Ye, please vacate the premises. Your presence is disrupting our patrons’ dining experience.”
Ye Qingzi gazed at the manager in disbelief. She hadn’t anticipated that even after revealing her prestigious identity, the manager of Jinyang Pavilion would still align himself with Gu Jin!
In the past, the mere mention of being the eldest daughter of the Ye family in the capital was enough to command respect and deference from others.
“I am also a patron of your establishment. Is this how Jinyang Pavilion treats its esteemed guests? I will certainly raise this matter with your superior,” Ye Qingzi declared, her hand throbbing with pain. She hadn’t intended to dine there anyway, but leaving under her own volition and being effectively expelled were two entirely different scenarios, particularly in the presence of her romantic rival.
