Sir, How About A Marriage?

Chapter 253: Safe Harbor

Ye Xin looked at Ye Cheng and sneered. “Let him deal with it? He was the one who suggested compensating the Mu family, right? Mom, are you really going to destroy your daughter’s dignity for your son’s career?”

Gao Wen hastily said, “No, no, of course not! Xinxin, don’t talk nonsense. Your brother is doing this for your sake. This time, you must listen to your brother!”

Ye Xin did not take her mother’s words to her at all. She was furious as soon as she heard about having to compensate the Mu family, or to be precise, Song Ning. She shrieked, “No! Why must I bow down to Song Ning? All of you are only trying to protect Brother’s career! You think you’ll have an easy life after he becomes a politician!”

Gao Wen was at a loss for words; she did not know how to explain the matter to her daughter.

Ye He, the person who had unwittingly destroyed the warm atmosphere, did not know what to do or say either. In the end, he said, flustered, “My baby, don’t be angry. Don’t be angry, okay? Your brother will find a way. He will definitely find a way! Don’t be angry!”

Ye Cheng felt another headache coming on. He looked at the family of three and said icily, “I… No, we have no choice. Even if we want to compensate the Mu family, they might not want it. They likely will want to pursue this matter to the end.”

After Ye Cheng finished speaking, he strode out of the room without looking back.

Chen Chen, who was standing outside the room, looked at his boss worriedly.

Ye Cheng said in a lowered voice, “Let’s return to the company.”

Chen Chen did not dare to say anything. He glanced at the ward and asked tentatively, “Young Master Ye, should we get someone to keep an eye on her?”

Ye Cheng smiled bitterly. “Get someone to keep an eye on her? Ye Xin will tear that person to shreds. Let her be.”

“But… if something happens…” Chen Chen trailed, still looking worried.

Ye Cheng did not say anything. After entering the car, he leaned back on the seat and sighed.

Chen Chen said carefully, “You have an appointment for dinner tonight with Miss Fu.”

Ye Cheng nodded. “I know.”

Miss Fu’s name was Fu Ting. She was the daughter of the vice mayor. The leaders would be very happy if Ye Cheng were to get married to Fu Ting.

Fu Ting had just returned from studying abroad. Her looks and family background were impeccable. It was just that her temper was a little bad. However, compared to Ye Xin, her temper could be considered rather good.

Ye Cheng knew in his heart that Ye Xin’s matter was like a ticking time bomb. It would explode sooner or later, and when it exploded, there was a possibility that he might be the first casualty of the explosion. In this world. No one would protect him; he could only protect himself. Therefore, he had decided Fu Ting and Vice Mayor Fu would be his safe harbor in the future.

After Chen Chen started the car, Ye Cheng asked, “Did you get in contact with Mu Qing?”

Chen Chen nodded. “I did. Mu Qing’s roots are quite deep. Although Mu Chen spent so much effort to deal with Mu Qing, I don’t think Mu Qing suffered that heavy a loss…”

Ye Cheng said plainly, “He’s been overseas for so many years. It’s impossible for him to stay in the background obediently. He’s only putting on a show for Old Madam Mu and Mu Chen.”

Chen Chen looked at his boss through the rearview mirror. “Are you thinking of joining forces with him to deal with the Ning Group?”

Ye Cheng looked outside the window as he said, “Originally, my plan was to form an alliance with the Ning Group. If we can obtain Zhuang Ji, it’ll pave the way for us internationally in the clothing industry.”

Although Ye Cheng did not explain much, Chen Chen knew in his heart it was not possible to ally themselves with the Ning Group. There would be a day when that secret would be brought to light. At that time, it would be even more troublesome if they were linked with the Ning Group. Moreover, with Ye Xin around, it was likely the matter would be exposed sooner rather than later.

Ye Cheng’s tone was rather bleak as he said, “Chen Chen, sometimes

“Chen Chen, sometimes we have to destroy the things we can’t obtain…”

Chen Chen nodded. Then, he said, “Ning Dong is now very dependent on Ji An. Ji An is keeping an eye on him.”

Ye Cheng stroked his chin as he said, “We can only destroy the Ning family from the inside. This is very important. Tell Ji An if Ning Dong needs money, just give it to him. Continue supporting Ning Dong even though he has confessed to orchestrating his father’s accident. I really didn’t expect the kid to be so scheming and ruthless.”

Chen Chen sighed. “Ning Zhe has really failed in this life.”
