Chapter 1290: Chapter 1290: I Love You So Much, Do You Know That? (6)

Seeing the empty safe, Old Master Ye stared in disbelief, looking again and again.

How is that possible? He had made a point of checking it last time, and everything was there. That was before moving to Qingmu Garden, and then moving back, he had forgotten to check the safe. It wasn’t until today, when he urgently needed money, that he opened it to find.

After waiting for a long time without Old Master Ye coming out, Abao sent someone to hurry him. Not long after, Old Master Ye came out, his face not so cheerful: “I don’t have any cash on hand, give me a couple of days and I will…”

“Old Master Ye, this is where you’re wrong. You said a mere twenty million was nothing, and now you’re telling me you have no money? You don’t have cash, you can write me a cheque.” Abao saw right through Old Master Ye’s stalling.

Old Master Ye’s face turned red, and he was speechless for a long while.

Seeing Old Master Ye like this, everyone felt disheartened.

“Since you’re out of money, then take this villa for the debt. Old Master Ye is here too, so just sell the house directly to Madam Ye.” No sooner had Abao finished speaking, than the doorbell rang.

The servant, seeing the person standing outside, was both shocked and scared; it was a man who looked exactly like Ye Qilan.

She instinctively opened the door, and then felt it wasn’t appropriate, as after all, this wasn’t Ye Qilan. With his arrival at the Ye Family at this time, one could not fathom his intent.

Ye Qilan quickly appeared in the living room. He saw the living room full of people and said in a gentle voice, “The Ye Family is indeed lively. As it happens, I heard that a house is being sold here, and as I haven’t yet bought property in Taicheng, I specifically came to take a look.”

“Who told you the Ye Family is selling the house?” Abao blurted out in disbelief.

“Taicheng is such a small place, I naturally have my sources, and there’s no need for you to know the specifics.” Ye Qilan glanced around, saw Lin Zhi there, and politely nodded his head: “What a coincidence, Madam Ye is also here. Are you here to buy the house too?”

Lin Zhi looked at Ye Qilan for a good while and replied indifferently: “Well said, I didn’t expect to meet President Ding here at the Ye’s.”

“Wherever there is excitement, that’s where I go,” Ye Qilan, acting as if he were the host of the home, picked the chief seat to sit down.

He looked around and saw everyone including Old Master Ye standing; his thin lips parted slightly: “Please, everyone, have a seat, don’t be polite.”

His tone of voice made it seem as if he were the true master of the house.

Old Master Ye watched Ding Ye with a cold eye: “Ding Ye, this is the Ye Family, not a place you should come to…”

“Old Master Ye is mistaken! As I said earlier, I’m here to buy a house. If this villa changes hands, if I become the owner, wouldn’t you all be my guests? I am hospitable, not like Old Master Ye, who is both vulgar and stingy.” Ye Qilan’s gaze was cool as it lingered on Old Master Ye.

Old Master Ye felt a shiver down his spine under Ye Qilan’s stare. He had always prided himself on being a good judge of character, but the look in this young man’s eyes made him inexplicably uncomfortable.

In fact, in Ye Qilan’s eyes, all these people before him indeed were no more than insects, after all…

Seemingly recalling something amusing, the corners of Ye Qilan’s mouth curved slightly. He turned to Lin Zhi: “Madam Ye, I reckon your trip here has been in vain.”

“President Ding is speaking too soon. Until the dust settles, we all have a chance. Confidence is good, but if it’s arrogance and conceit, then it’s unwelcome,” Lin Zhi replied coolly.

She had never taken Ding Ye seriously before, but now it seemed she had misjudged him. She couldn’t see through the man before her.

“I have never failed to get what I want. Madam Ye, just wait and see. I will certainly win this round!” Ye Qilan’s lips curved elegantly.
