Chapter 710 Mr Chu, Please Hop In!


    After that conversation that night, Ye Fan and Ye Xi-Mei never brought it up again.


    Ye Xi-Mei knew that her son was extremely obstinate, so once he had decided on something, nobody


    could change his mind.


    She could only pray that he wouldn''t do anything rash.


    Ye Xi-Mei didn''t bring it up, so Ye Fan wasn''t going to talk about it either.


    It was enough for him to bear the weight of this hatred by himself. Telling his mother was useless and


    only made an additional person worry.


    So for the next few days, Ye Fan quietly apanied his mother every day.


    They wrapped dumplings together and went to the market to stock things up for the new year holiday.


    At night they would watch TV together and just chat.


    Sometimes, just a few cups of tea, a short nap and some pleasant music was enough for the two of


    them to spend the afternoon.


    Of course, besides apanying his mother, Ye Fan would also bring Lu Wending along to visit Shin


    Yu-Xiang.


    Now that he had married the woman of his dreams, Shin Yu-Xiang was in an excellent mood.


    The four of them would y mahjong or go fishing by the river.


    They lived a quiet but happy life, and it reminded Ye Fan of their childhood days.


    Sometimes Ye Fan would hope that life would just go on like this.


    But whenever he thought about such things, he would shake his head and justugh.


    This sort of life was just a dream to him.


    He was carrying too much on his shoulders.


    There were no peaceful times for someone who had to plod through life with so much weight.


    But that was also why Ye Fan really cherished thesest few quiet and peaceful moments.


    As for his two uncles, they became quieter after that spat and didn''te and pick on Ye Fan


    anymore.


    But it didn''t mean that their attitude towards Ye Fan had changed at all.


    Instead, this created a bigger rift between themselves and Ye Fan''s family.


    Theypletely ignored Ye Fan and his mother even when they saw each other on the street.


    This had confirmed Ye Xi-Mei''s suspicions. A leopard couldn''t change its spots after all.


    She knew these two younger brothers of hers only too well.


    To them, Ye Fan was a cowardly live-in son-inw, while Ye Xi-Mei was a woman abandoned by her


    husband. So it was only normal for most people to look down on them and be unwee anywhere


    they went.


    Ye Xi-Mei was already long used to this.


    Ye Fan wasn''t bothered at all.


    If these uncles were kind and caring towards them, Ye Fan would not have minded helping them out.


    They were rtives after all, so he would help them.


    Ye Fan''s position in Jiangdong was such that one word from him could secure the future of his entire


    family.


    But after all that happened, Ye Fan saw his rtives'' true colors, so he wasn''t going to give them any


    opportunities.


    They didn''t care about him, so why should he try so hard to gain their favor?


    Time continued to pass like this.


    New year wasing soon, and this quiet little town was beginning to get busy.


    Everyone who worked in other cities were alling home.


    One day, Ye Fan received a call and it was actually from Lei Ao-Ting.


    He said that he was from Jingzhou, he wanted to bring Ye Fan around Jingzhou to have fun and have a


    meal as well.


    Ye Fan had nothing else to do and Lu Wending kept wanting to go, so Ye Fan agreed to it.


    "Mr Chu, you''re agreeable? That''s great! Send me your address and I''ll get a car to pick you up!" Lei


    Ao-Ting was overjoyed that Ye Fan had agreed to this.


    This was a great opportunity to get closer to Mr Chu, so Lei Ao-Ting was over the moon.


    After he hung up, he quickly prepared to pick Ye Fan up.


    Meanwhile, Ye Fan went over to visit his grandfather.


    When he got there, the rest of the Ye family was actually in.


    "Dad, since you don''t want to go, then we won''t force you. We''ll be heading off first. Yu-Yan''s teacher is


    a general, so we can''t let him wait.”


    Everyone behaved like they hadn''t seen Ye Fan step into the house at all.


    They ignored him while Ye Tian said bye to Old Master Ye.


    It seemed like something big was happening.


    "Sure, you all can go ahead. I''m old and I won''t join in," Old Master Ye waved his hands to tell Ye Tian


    that they could leave.


    After Old Master Ye was done talking to Ye Tian, Ye Fan asked, "Grandpa, I''m going to the cityter. Is


    there anything you want? I can buy it back for you."

    Old Master Ye was surprised. "You''re going to the city too?"


    Ye Fan nodded. "That''s right. My friend asked me to go over for the day."


    Old Master Ye replied, "Sure, go ahead and have fun. What a coincidence, your uncle and family are


    also headed to the city to treat Yu-Yan''s teacher to a meal. Why don''t you take their car as well? They


    you don''t have to spend money to take a bus."


    Old Master Ye then called out to Ye Tian, "Wait for Fan! He''s going to the city as well, let him take a ride


    from you!”


    "Dad, the car is full, he can take the bus," came Ye Tian''s reply.


    It was followed by the low rumble of engines as two cars drove off without waiting for Ye Fan.


    Old Master Ye''s expression darkened.


    He didn''t expect them to ignore his instructionspletely.


    "Fan, just sit here and wait, I''ll call them back right now. Once I get angry, they wouldn''t dare to disobey


    me!”


    Old Master Ye was furious. He didn''t believe what Ye Tian said.


    They were taking two cars and he knew there was no way either car was full. In his anger, the old man


    wanted to call Ye Tian toe back and take Ye Fan with them.


    But Ye Fan just shook his head andughed. "Grandpa, there''s no need to do that. Take care of


    yourself and don''t worry about me anymore. Besides, my friend ising in a while to pick me, so


    there''s no need to bother them."


    After that, Ye Fan walked out.


    Old Master Ye watched worriedly as his eldest grandson walked out on his own and he let out a long


    sigh.


    He was still alive but this family was already in pieces.


    Once he passed on, life for Ye Fan and his mother would be even more dire.


    "It looks like I should try and think of a way to help Xi-Mei and her son.”


    But while Old Master Ye was busy worrying, a blue sports car had stopped outside the main gate of the


    estate.


    That deep blue car body was stylish and breathtaking to look at. From the moment it drove in, it


    became the brightest star along the street.


    Many passersby looked over and their eyes sparkled with envy.


    The car window was wound down and Lei Ao-Ting stuck out his handsome and respectful face. "Mr


    Chu, Ao-Ting is here to pick you! Please hop in!"
