C15 Don't be Afraid I'm Here

Lu Yuanbai originally didn't plan to participate in Gu Jing's engagement banquet. Firstly, he felt that this kind of social interaction was too boring. Moreover, he was afraid that Ye Youqing would expose his identity during the banquet.

He was a stubborn gold digger, and he was not in love with him yet. If he was angry and ignored him, then that would be bad.

However, the family's old man directly sent someone to invite him over, saying that he had just taken over as the CEO not long ago and should go to the Gu family to contact them.

Lu Yuanbai deliberately dawdled around the house for a while. He planned to come back as soon as the engagement banquet ended.

Before he left, Old Master Lu called out to him and suddenly asked, "I heard from you, Second Uncle, that you've been chasing after a girl recently?"

Lu Yuanbai smiled and frankly admitted: "It's the Ye Family girl, her name is Ye Youqing." Since his grandfather had mentioned it, he must have already sent people to investigate. There was no need for him to conceal it.

Old Master Lu took a sip of tea and said, "You're not young anymore. If you really like it, it's not bad to settle it down." His tone was light, as if he were chattering about the weather, not about his grandson's life.

"I really do like her a little. Furthermore, if we want to split the construction materials market from Ye Family, getting married clearly makes Ye Zhen more at ease than doing business." Lu Yuanbai analyzed the situation rationally, and he spoke in the same tone as Old Master Lu.

The old man continued, "This matter shouldn't be delayed. I think the Gu family also wants to get involved, don't let others get there first."

"Don't worry, grandfather, I know what I'm doing."

Old Master Lu nodded in satisfaction. Lu Yuanbai had been personally taught by him before he left for the country, and he had the calmness and ruthlessness from when he was young. This was also the reason why he placed Lu's in his hands.

By the time Lu Yuanbai arrived at the Gu household, the engagement ceremony had already ended. He found a random reason to apologize to the Gu family head, then chatted with his common business partners for a while before going to the resting room on the second floor, intending to rest until the banquet ended.

Not long after, a commotion broke out downstairs, accompanied by one or two angry rebukes from Mrs. Gu and Gao Mane.

He pushed open the door and was about to go downstairs to have a look, but when he turned his head, he discovered Ye Youqing and her sister standing not far away at the foot of the stairs.

After the engagement ceremony ended, Ye Yixin was forcefully dragged down from the stage by Ye Youqing. Gu Jing wanted to go up and stop her, but Ye Yixin smiled and shook her head, "It's okay. Sister just wants to say a few words to me."

Ye Yixin naturally and naturally followed Ye Youqing. On the other hand, Ye Youqing's face was filled with resentment and anger. No matter how she looked at it, it seemed like she was here to intentionally cause trouble.

Gao Mane was a little worried, so she scolded Ye Youqing a few times. Ye Youqing turned a deaf ear and dragged them all the way upstairs until she was sure that no one could hear what they were saying.

"Was it you who ordered me to be drugged on my birthday?" Lili demanded, with suppressed anger in her voice.

Ye Yixin was stunned by the question, but soon she said innocently, "I don't quite understand what sister is saying."

"Stop pretending, the person who saw you that day at the coffee shop was not a journalist at all. He contacted you, right? That camera must be full of my photos, right? "

"Elder sister, it's better if you don't say anything without evidence." Ye Yixin put away her usual timid look in front of Ye Youqing and instantly became overbearing.

Ye Youqing, on the other hand, was even more convinced by her suspicion. "Why did you do this? We have been sisters for more than ten years, why did you do this to me? "

"Don't talk about sisters with me!" Ye Yixin was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, she became agitated, her one hand unconsciously buckling the lace on her clothes.

She stopped pretending to be innocent and directly said what she had endured for 11 years, "You clearly aren't as obedient as me, but Daddy prefers you. Who is the one who suffers every time you are ordered around the house? It's me! You still didn't allow my mother to enter Ye Family, causing me to always have the title of my illegitimate daughter. Even my mother couldn't attend today's important engagement ceremony! The most hateful thing is to steal the person I like, what qualifications do you have to be my big sister! "

"I didn't know you liked Gu Jing," Ye Youqing whispered hoarsely. "How ridiculous. I didn't know that my sister hated me so much that she wanted me to die …"

"I never wanted you to die!" Ye Yixin interrupted her with a frantic and paranoid look, "Originally, I was engaged to Gu Jing and everything is over now. But you came to provoke me and insisted on making trouble at my engagement ceremony. You forced me!"

After Ye Yixin finished her sentence, she suddenly dragged Ye Youqing to the staircase and shouted, "No!" Then, all of a sudden, he fell to the ground and rolled down the stairs.

Hearing Ye Yixin's scream, the crowd below hurriedly looked up and saw Ye Yixin being pushed down the stairs by Ye Youqing.

The stairs between the first and second floors were steep and long, and when Ye Yixin fell from the first floor, she broke her head and a small puddle of dark red blood oozed from her groin.

"My grandson! Call an ambulance! " Gao Mane screamed and was about to faint.

Gu Jing carried Ye Yixin in his arms. Ye Yixin protected her left leg and said weakly, "It hurts. It seems like my left leg broke." Then he touched his belly as if he had suddenly thought of something. "Where's the child? Where are our children? My stomach hurts. "

"Be good, the doctor will be here soon, and the pain will be gone soon. The child will be here again in the future."

After Gu Jing comforted Ye Yixin, he raised his head and glared at Ye Youqing who was standing on the stairs on the second floor. "Why did you push her? Why! "I have truly misjudged you..."

"I didn't push her!" Ye Youqing subconsciously took a step back. She didn't expect Ye Yixin to use this kind of method to harm her enemy by injuring herself, but she had no way to defend herself.

Gao Mane, who was standing at the side, came to her senses. She pointed at Ye Youqing and scolded her, "I didn't expect you to have such a vicious heart. Yixin is your own sister. You killed your nephew!"

Ye Zhen pushed his way through the crowd, looking at his unconscious daughter and then at Ye Youqing, the man who'd been wandering in the mall for half a century. He suddenly bent over and cried, "Youqing, what the hell did you do? She's your sister! "

"I didn't know she was pregnant. I didn't push her. I really didn't push her …"

Ye Youqing covered her face and silently cried. She had lost a small life. Even though she didn't push him, it was because she died.

The guests loudly accused Ye Youqing, saying that she shouldn't have pushed her sister down the stairs because of jealousy. They accused her and insulted her, and some even said that they wanted to arrest her.

A few people wanted to go upstairs and pull Ye Youqing down with righteous indignation. Ye Zhen was afraid that they might hurt Ye Youqing on impulse, so he stopped them at the stairs.

All sorts of arguments broke out downstairs. Everyone was criticizing her, and no one believed what she said …

Ye Youqing felt that her only island was about to collapse.

Behind her, a firm chest suddenly appeared. A warm and dry hand firmly held her trembling hand.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here. I know you didn't push her."

Ye Youqing turned around abruptly, and when she saw the familiar angular face, she strangely calmed down.
