Chapter 63 Second Update!!

  Ye Haiyi got angry again, "Then what are you going to do now?"

  "I don't know. I really don't know what to do..." Ji Xiaowan said, getting more and more bewildered as she spoke. That feeling of helpless bewilderment was like a huge black hole, swallowing up her entire soul.

  "It's come to this and you still don't plan on speaking up?"

  "Why should I speak? Why would I want to talk to you?" Ji Xiaowen knew they wanted to lend her money, but she didn't want to borrow.

  Ye Hai rubbed his brow, he really wanted to have a few drinks now to calm himself down. "I know you don't want to owe us a favor, but Xiaowen, can't you just treat us like ordinary friends? Borrowing money from ordinary friends is a matter of course."

  Ji Xiaowan fell silent, her head lowered, her hands clasped together on her lap, and she didn't make another sound.

  "Xiao Wan, I know that in the past we did those things and deeply hurt you. However, I don't want us to be sentenced to death because of that one incident. We want to make it up to you, so as long as you speak up, we will definitely help you."

  His request was not much, just wanting her to open her mouth and say a word, make a request, they were all willing to unconditionally help her with anything, they just wanted to let her know that behind her back, there were two men who could be relied on.

  But why is this woman so stubborn? She refuses to open her small mouth no matter what.

  Just like now, she was silent and left him with no way to deal with her, he really wanted to strangle her to death!

  Yi Ling assigned the task of persuading to Ye Haiwei, but that didn't mean he wasn't anxious in his heart. Seeing Ye Haiwei unable to persuade her no matter what, Yi Ling also had a bellyful of fire in his heart.

  Ji Xiaowan's silence finally made Yi Ling speak up, "Xiaowan, your mouth can be a bit tighter." When Yi Ling said that, the smile on his lips was truly evil.

  Ji Xiaowan suddenly sat up straight and said, "I don't need your help, I can handle it myself."

  "So tell me, what do you want to do?" Ye Haiyuan suppressed his anger, and the veins on his forehead were bulging.

  Ji Xiaowan softened again, like a deflated balloon, "I don't know."

  Ji Xiaowan finished speaking, Ye Haiwei immediately stood up, walked to the bar, and poured himself a drink.

  He really needs to calm down now!

  Why is this girl so capable of driving him to such a state? He has never encountered anything that makes him feel so helpless and angry before, but he just can't deal with her!

  Why is it like this?

  Ye Hai poured an entire bottle of red wine into his stomach in one breath, and after the alcohol stimulated his brain, he calmed down a lot.

  Ye Haiwei closed his eyes, remained silent for three minutes, then walked back to Ji Xiaowan's side in three steps, sat down on the tea table opposite her, looked at her and said warmly, "Or so, Xiaowan, I'll give you a few suggestions?"

  Ji Xiaowan raised her eyes and looked at him, saying, "What?"

  "You can choose to leave your mother behind. Don't care if she lives or dies!"

  Ji Xiaowan fell silent for a moment before saying, "I can't do it."

  "Your mother is like this, can't you just let her go? She's addicted to gambling and that stubbornness will never change. Today she owes 300,000 yuan, if you think of a way to help her pay it off, as soon as she turns around, she'll go gamble again and owe another huge debt. Xiaowen, how many 300,000 yuans do you have to fill in these holes for her?"

  Ye Haiyi is right, Ye Haiyi said these things, Ji Xiaowan knows them all, she understands them all!

  But...

  Ji Xiaowan closed her eyes in pain and said, "You're not me! Ye Haiyuan! You don't know what I'm feeling right now!" The huge stone in Ji Xiaowan's heart was forever stuck in her throat, but her face remained calm and serene. "I can let you guys kill my father because he doesn't have any place in my heart, but my mother... she's also a pitiful woman. You haven't seen how my father beat her up, you haven't seen how desperate she was when she wanted to swallow a whole bottle of sleeping pills, you haven't seen how she chose to drown herself in liquor and sleep on the streets every night. Since I was little, I've seen everything about my mother, remembered it all deeply. I don't know if she's cold towards me because she didn't get any love from my father. Indeed, she was harsh towards me, ignored me, hit me... there were many times when I wanted to strangle her to death, but every time I reached out to grab her neck, I couldn't do it. I couldn't bring myself to hurt her! Just like today, I've had countless thoughts about leaving her, not caring about her, but..."

  "Shh, don't say any more!" This woman really had a way with her, leaving him helpless. Ye Haiyi pressed her head against his chest, cutting off her words, and said, "We'll help her pay back this money."

  "I don't..."

  "Don't say no!" Ye Haiwei growled, his face darkening a few shades. "Xiao Wan, I'm just lending you money, not giving it to you. You think I'm running a usury business! If you have the money later, it's not too late to pay me back then. Don't worry, I won't ask for anything from you. Xiao Wan, all you need to know is that you don't owe us anything. It's we who owe you, and we're paying off our debt to you."

  He's said it so clearly, Season Little Wen has no reason to refuse anymore?

  Ji Xiaowan pushed him away and quietly looked at Ye Haiwei, as if thinking about something.

  To be honest, she really needs help from others now. Ji Xiaowan knows that she doesn't want to have any involvement with them, let alone owe them a favor. But what else can she do? Is she going to hold on for another ten or eight days and then wait for the usurer to double the interest? She can't take it anymore! No matter how strong she is, she feels like she can't take it anymore!

  Since Ye Haiyuan said he wanted to return her emotional debt, then this time she would follow his lead. Anyway, she would definitely pay him back the money.

  It's better to owe him than to owe usury at high interest rates. At least she can ask him not to add interest so quickly.

  "After thinking for a moment, she lowered her head and said, 'I'll work hard to pay you back. And... thank you.'"

  She finally gave in!

  It's really hard for her to say thank you! Both of them were sweating profusely!

  Ye Haiwei helped her pay off her mother's debt, Liu Fei was overjoyed, but when Ji Xiaowen saw Liu Fei's smug expression, she felt a pang in her heart. Ji Xiaowen warned her again that if there was a next time, she would no longer get involved in her affairs.

  But a week later, Liu Fei called her again and said she owed someone 200,000 yuan.

  Ji Xiaowan received the call and rushed home, slapping her mother in the face. "Is this how you're supposed to be a mother? Go out and see for yourself, which mother treats their own child like this?"

  "Sorry! Xiao Wan! Please help Mom one more time, just this last time! Go ask your boyfriend for help! Mom promises you, this is really the last time!"

  "Boyfriend?" Ji Xiaowan sneered, "Mom, you really think I'm a prostitute, don't you?"

  "Don't be ridiculous! Foolish child, how could Mom possibly think of you as a prostitute?! Mom just wants your boyfriend to help out with a small favor!"

  "A small sum? Is 200,000 a small sum? Was the previous 300,000 a small sum? Are you going to exhaust me for my entire life?"

  "Xiao Wan, don't be like this! I'm your mother! Besides, your boyfriend is so rich..."

  "Bang" ——

  Ji Xiaowan slapped her again, directly cutting off what she was about to say!

  Is there any daughter in this world who dares to slap her mother like this? Ji Xiaowan always thought that whoever hits their mother will go to hell! And what she's doing now, she doesn't regret it one bit, even if she knows clearly that the gates of hell are right in front of her, she still wants to heavily slap awake this incompetent mother!

  After Ji Xiaowan finished slapping Liu Fei, she stormed off. She rushed into Ye Haiyi's home and said to him, "My mom owes someone money again, 200,000 yuan."

  "Alright, I'll have someone send the money over later." Ye Haiwei said softly.

  Ji Xiaowan shook her head and said, "Ye Haiwei, I want you to help me with something!"

  Ye Hai Wei tilted his head and asked, "What do you want me to do?"

  "Get my mother into prison! Just like my father! I want her to be locked up! Only by locking her up thoroughly will she have a peaceful day."

  Ji Xiaowan finished speaking, and Ye Haiyi finally revealed a faint smile.

  The little girl finally agreed to make a request to him, what does this mean?

  This shows that he is not completely useless in her heart, at least she still knows that he has the ability to help her.

  "Xiao Wan, it's really easy to put your mother in prison, just one sentence from you and I can make her get a life sentence. But is this really what you want?"

  When Ji Xiaowan heard Ye Haiyi say the four words "life imprisonment without parole", she visibly stiffened for a moment, but in the blink of an eye, she firmly said, "Yes."

  Ye Haiyi still smiled faintly and asked, "What if I said that I have the ability to make your mother quit smoking from now on?"

  "What's going on?" Ji Xiaowan muttered in surprise.

  "Yes, I have the ability to make your mother never dare to touch you again. In other words, I don't need to put your mother in jail to make her stop."

  Ji Xiaowan never thought that one day her mother could quit gambling, she felt that only by locking up her mother could she make her completely stop. Now Ye Haiwei actually told her that he can help her mother quit gambling, what does this mean?

  Ji Xiaowan seemed to have suddenly seen a glimmer of hope, and her eyes began to shine brightly too. "Do you really have a way?"

  Ye Hai nodded slightly.

  Ji Xiaowan involuntarily smiled with joy and hastily said, "Ye Haiwei, help me."

  When Xiaowen said those five words, Ye Haiyuan knew that he was really saved! He heard those five words and his whole person was immersed in crazy joy! He felt that at that moment, he was her everything, he was her only one!

  For these five words, he spent how much heart and time, this girl will never know.

  Ye Haiwei closed his eyes, trying to calm himself down, then he said, "Xiao Wan, don't blame me for making a request of you."

  When Ye Haiyuan said that, Ji Xiaowan was not surprised at all. She knew that Ye Haiyuan would never help her unconditionally. After all, this time she was the one who spoke first, so she must be in a passive state.

  "What do you want?"

  "Come on, come sit over here." Ye Hai patted the spot beside him and said.

  Ji Xiaowen sat obediently by his side, quietly looking at him.

  Ye Hai gently picked up her wrist and kissed the scar on it, saying, "Forget all about what happened in the past. Don't hate us anymore, okay?"

  Ji Xiaowan originally thought that Ye Haiyuan had called her to his side because he wanted her to kiss him, but she didn't expect that he only asked her to forget the origin of the scar on her hand.

  Ye Haiwei wanted her to forget the hurtful things they had done to her in the past. In fact, Ji Xiaowan never hated them because the mastermind behind these things was Luo Meiye, and Ji Xiaowan had been using that incident to hope that they would not touch her again.

  If she were to tell the truth... If she told them that she didn't actually care about their mistakes, it would mean that from now on, her personal safety could no longer be guaranteed. They wanted to get close to her, and she lost the qualification to refuse.

  Ji Xiaowan is now thinking, for that incompetent mother, is it necessary to push herself to the forefront?

  Her current days are not easy either, but at least she knows they absolutely won't do anything to her. However, as long as she nods her head now, her future days will be even more unbearable.

  Ye Haiyu looked at her when she was silent, and he felt particularly anxious. He lifted her wrist high and pressed it against the back of the sofa, turned over and straddled her legs on both sides, one hand supporting her occipital bone, forcing her to raise her head to look up at him. He didn't want to scare her, but he really couldn't wait any longer.

  "Xiao Wan, my request is not much, as long as you agree with me, forget about the past grievances between us, let me have the chance to get close to you, you can ask me for anything, don't mention helping your mother pay off her debts, whatever you want, I will try my best to satisfy you."

  Ji Xiaowan fell silent for a moment before speaking up, "I... have never hated you. Never hated you."

  Ji Xiaowan's words left Ye Haoyu stunned for a moment, and then a wave of wild joy surged up in his heart. He really hadn't expected that her simple sentence would have such a huge effect. He was even more surprised that this girl didn't hate them? No matter whether she was telling the truth or not, he would take her words as true.

  Since she said she never hated them, then he should have the right to kiss her now.

  At this thought, Ye Haiyuan directly lowered his head and pressed her into the sofa back.

  Ji Xiaowan hastily turned her head and said another sentence, "It's what you said yourself, as long as I'm willing to make a request, you'll definitely agree to it."

  Ye Haiyi nodded and stepped back, saying in a deep voice, "Alright."

  "I don't want you to touch me. Will you promise not to?"

  He knew it! He knew she would say that!

  Ye Haiyi let out another stifled breath, stood up, closed his eyes and nodded, "I agree. Whatever you say, I'll agree."

  Ji Xiaowan's heart widened a bit, and she said, "I will pay you back the money. I just hope you don't add interest so quickly."

  "No interest, you can repay whenever you want. Don't just focus on making money and ruin your own body, or I will punish you."

  Ye Haiwei's words made a warm current flow through Ji Xiaowan's heart, and she felt that the huge stone in her heart had finally fallen.

  She was grateful to him! Really grateful for his understanding and the help he gave her when she needed it urgently!

  Ji Xiaowan looked at Ye Haiyi's eyes and slightly relaxed a bit.

  "I want to go back to my room and rest."

  "Go."

  Ye Haiwei watched her walk into the bedroom before going to the balcony to calm down his excited heart.

  Yi Ling followed Qi Xiao Wan back home, and then went to the bathroom. He hid in the bathroom and didn't come out, just eavesdropping on their conversation. Even when he saw Ye Hai Wei kissing her, he didn't plan to walk out of this door to disturb them, what was his purpose?

  Yi Ling heard the conversation between Ji Xiao Wan and Ye Hai Wei, he smiled comfortably. He took two cans of beer, followed Ye Hai Wei to the balcony, one for him, one for himself.

  Two people opened a can of beer, clinked them together, as if celebrating something.

  Yi Ling took a sip of wine and said, "I originally thought I would lose to you, but unexpectedly today, you pulled yourself down to the same starting point as me. Ye Hai Wei, I really want to thank you."

  Ye Haiwei's hand, which was originally going to hold a drink, paused, and he asked, "What do you mean?"

  "Ji Xiaowan doesn't know what you've done to her, but I'm not a fool! Now in this entire Qing City, all the underground casinos, which one doesn't have your shadow, Ye Haoyu? Out of ten loan sharks, seven are your people, Brother Yu! The remaining three still have to rely on your face to survive. Why did Ji Xiaowan's mother suddenly borrow money from someone at an exorbitant interest rate? And why is she being chased so tightly?"

  Ye Hai's hand holding the beer was pinched flat by him, and the beer in the bottle spilled all over the floor instantly.

  Ye Haiwei's silence made Yi Ling's mouth open even wider, "If I tell Xiao Wan that it was you who told someone to corrupt her mother and go gamble in the underground casino, do you think Xiao Wan would be grateful to you or hate you to death?"

  Ye Haiyu's face turned cold as he said, "Yi Ling, from the moment you hid in the bathroom to eavesdrop, you lost your chance to negotiate with me! Don't you understand?"

  "I know! I know everything! If I were to expose all your secrets, Xiaowan would hate me just the same as she hates you! Because I knew everything but chose to keep quiet, in her eyes, I'm already an accomplice of yours. It's just like back then when you knew I was going to put that photo on the blackboard to embarrass her, and you just stood by and watched with a cold eye. Both of us have hurt her! So I won't say anything."

  Ye Haiyu let out a cold snort, tilted the twisted wine bottle to his lips and drank the rest of the wine in one gulp.

  "It's not easy to get close to her! I understand that I've fallen behind you by a big margin, in Xiaowen's heart, I'm just a bad guy! And you've been playing the good guy from start to finish, what's your purpose? No need for me to make it clear! Ye Haiwei, you're despicable and base, I've seen through you long ago! But there's one thing I want to tell you."

  "What?"

  Yi Ling's evil smile cracked open, "I respect Ji Xiao Wan's final choice, even if she chose you in the end, I still won't tell her about those despicable things you did to her! However..."

  Ye Haiyu narrowed his eyes and quietly waited for him to finish what he was saying.

  "I'll have her! No matter if she chooses you or me in the end! I'll still want her! As long as I haven't had her, I'll never give up." Yi Ling added with a hint of a smile, "Even if it means using force."

  Ye Haiwei took a deep breath, with a thick anger burning in his heart. "If she finally chooses you, don't you mind what happened between me and her?"

  Yi Ling burst out laughing and said, "Saying I don't mind is a lie! But just as you said, from the moment I hid in the bathroom to eavesdrop on your conversation, I didn't have the qualifications to negotiate with you. Ye Haiwei, you let me do all those bad things to Xiao Wan, wasn't it to force me out of her heart? I'm not a fool, I naturally know what you're trying to do. You think that the worse I am, the better you'll look, and you've been working hard to maintain your image in her heart. She's also slowly getting closer to you. I have to say, you've done a great job! Hehe...". Yi Ling laughed slyly and continued, "I don't have a perfect impression in her heart, and she really dislikes me. But I don't mind, even if she dislikes me more, hates me more, I'll still cling to her shamelessly! But you, Ye Haiwei, can't stand losing! You've worked hard to maintain your perfect image, but once I expose your lies, Xiao Wan will hate you to death, more than she hates me!"

  "You dare to threaten me?" Ye Haiyun growled in a low, ominous tone.

  "Not a threat, but I'd like to make three rules with you."

  "What did you say?" Ye Haiyun frowned and asked.

  "We each pursue her in our own way, no matter what means, no matter whether we can get her into bed or not, neither side is allowed to sabotage the other."

  Ye Hai fell silent, as if thinking about his proposal.

  Yi Ling didn't care whether he nodded or not, and continued to say, "As long as Ji Xiaowan doesn't say she wants to be with someone, none of us are allowed to force her to leave the other person."

  On this point, Ye Haiyuan was in agreement.

  "Once Xiao Wan makes a decision, then whatever is left must unconditionally withdraw."

  Yehai Wei also agreed on this point, because when they faced Lu Mei Yue before, they had said the same thing.

  Ye Haiyi agreed, but he couldn't nod his head. He felt that the perfect ending he had worked so hard to create was being snatched away from him by this kid, who was taking half of his victory. So Ye Haiyi couldn't bring himself to nod.

  Yi Ling saw him hesitating, and laughed wildly by himself on the other side. "Wei Ge, think carefully about it! Either we both get the right to approach her, or we both accept her hatred! I know my chances of winning are relatively low, but if you say losing, it's not necessarily that you'll lose less than me!"

  Yi Ling this kid is just calculated that he doesn't dare to shake out the matter, so he dares to threaten him like this!

  However, Yi Ling is right! He really can't afford to lose. Once the truth comes out, Ji Xiaowan will definitely hate him to death, even more than she hates Yi Ling!

  Ye Haiyi closed his eyes, nodded heavily and said, "I only have one request."

  "What?" Yi Ling raised an eyebrow and smiled.

  "Xiao Wan doesn't like it, you can't force her." Ye Haiwei wasn't afraid of anything else, just this kid's stubbornness.

  Yi Ling weakly said, "I'll try."

  "Hey, you!" Ye Haiyun got angry, "Stop always thinking with your lower body! Your actions are too big, and you'll end up hurting her."

  He flashed his white teeth and said with a smile, "I'll try my best."

  "Do you want to fight?"

  "Come on, am I afraid of you?"

  The two brothers started fighting again as they talked.

  In recent days, Qing City's economy has gradually recovered, and the city's public security has also become more stable, no longer as turbulent as it was before.

  Yi Ling almost messed up the Qing City stock market, he knew he couldn't be too impatient, so since he acquired that brokerage firm, he hasn't been reckless anymore. After all, if the Qing City stock market crashes, he won't have a good ending either.

  Recently, the stock prices of those companies in Qing City have been rising one after another, and many people have started to invest in the stock market, preparing to make a fortune during this period.

  Ye Haiyi's territory, the force is becoming more and more solid, with more and more people, the more people, the greater the force, but at the same time, the number of people who are mixed in with pearls also increases, many unknown thugs, relying on themselves as Tower Masters, swaggering and deceiving everywhere.

  The tower is too tall, and many places are out of reach. He can only try his best to keep the hands and feet of middle-level personnel clean, thinking that he can deal with them one by one through the way of superiors pressing down on subordinates, but there will always be a few fish and shrimp causing trouble everywhere.

  Moreover, Ye Hai's power is too great, and it will attract the attention of those with ulterior motives.

  For example, the deputy mayor who has just been stripped of his power, Luo Tang!

  Luo Ren is the boss of a transportation company, although it's not multinational, but also domestic across provinces. Luo Ren's younger brother Luo Tang is a government official, and his wife has an uncle who works in the central government as a third-level cadre. In fact, Luo Ren himself doesn't have much ability, when operating the company, he often makes mistakes in decision-making, and the company's profits and losses are full of loopholes. However, Luo Ren has a strong background, he has his younger brother to back him up, even though his younger brother currently doesn't have much real power, but he knows that Luo Tang won't be demoted, and it's very likely that he will be promoted to the next level soon.

  Yi Qingtian and Ye Nan naturally had their eyes on Luo Ren's extensive political connections, so they went all out to curry favor with him. As it happened, he had a precious daughter, whose age was very close to that of their son. From a young age, they arranged for their son to be in close proximity to Luo Mei Yue, with the aim of forming an alliance between their companies through marriage. Coincidentally, their precious son seemed to like Luo Mei Yue and took good care of her, but Luo Mei Yue was always unwilling to settle on a fiancé, wavering indecisively between Yi Ling and Ye Hai Wei.

  Lu Mei Yue hesitated, and Lu Papa also hesitated along with her.

  Who would have thought that this matter dragged on and actually took their two sons away!

  Those two rascals! They actually dared to run away from home! They thought these two little beasts would come back after having fun, but who knew they even refused to return home for the New Year!

  What is the reason for this?

  Yi Qingtian was curious, Ye Nan was curious, and even Luo Ren was quite curious.

  Lu Mei Yue has been complaining to her father on the phone, complaining that her classmates at school are bullying her, and complaining that Yi Ling and Ye Hai Wei won't contact her. Lu Ren finally couldn't bear it anymore, he asked his dear daughter what had happened, why Yi Ling and others would treat her like this.

  After Luo Mei Yue was silent on the phone for three or four minutes, she said, "It's all Ji Xiao Wan's fault! It's that cheap woman, she seduced Yi Gege and Ye Gege, sowing discord in our relationship, making Yi Gege and Ye Gege both dislike me! It's all Ji Xiao Wan's fault!"

  Lu Mei Yue couldn't stop once she started, and she began to scold Ji Xiao Wan everywhere, saying that she was no good, speaking ill of her, saying that she had no shame, and calling her a cheap person.

  Lu Renyue's frown deepened as he listened, he had no idea that there was such a woman causing trouble in the middle!

  Luo Ren made a phone call to Yi Qingtian and Ye Nan immediately after hanging up the phone, telling them everything about Ji Xiaowan.

  Lu Ren told them about Ji Xiaowan, all from Lu Mei's mouth, so when Yi Qingtian and Ye Nann heard Ji Xiaowan's name, the first deep impression was that the woman was shameless, only knew how to seduce men, and liked to stir up trouble. They also began to think that it was that woman who incited their son to run away from home, not even letting them come back for Chinese New Year. Yi Qingtian and Ye Nann were thoroughly disgusted with Ji Xiaowan's existence.

  Yi Qingtian and Ye Nan successively sent out private detectives to investigate all the information about Ji Xiaowan.

  Digression

  Got a lot more, poor ticket?

  Hehe...
