Chapter 236: Chapter 231: The Two Daughters Born Illegally

Ye Hai and Zhong Meifen never expected to see Ye Qiu in their own neighborhood the next day.

Watching Ye Qiu chatting enthusiastically with several old men and women, Ye Hai felt an inexplicable surge of anger. Did she even know how long he had been looking for her?

"Top scorer, indeed impressive!"

"Old Man Liu, your adopted granddaughter really brings you fortune, what blessings!"

Uncle Liu beamed with joy, "Oh, you flatter me, everyone. But indeed, my adopted granddaughter is smart and filial. When the admission notice comes, I’ll treat everyone to a meal, and you all must attend."

"Definitely, definitely."

"Ye Qiu, what are you doing here?" A surge of anger rushed to Ye Hai’s head as he suddenly shouted.

Seeing the furious couple, the merry group of old men and women unconsciously showed a look of disdain. After over a year of Uncle Liu’s promotion and their own observations, it was common knowledge about Ye Qiu’s relationship with the Ye Family, and they were very clear about the Ye Family’s attitude towards Ye Qiu.

Both had neglected their own daughter from a young age, treating the three children with vastly different attitudes, showing extreme favoritism, even heartlessly kicking out their daughter during New Year festivities, never looking for her over the year as she lived right under their noses, demonstrating how unconcerned they were.

If not for Old Liu and his wife taking in this pitiful girl, who knows how much hardship and mistreatment the child would have endured?

What, now that the child has made something of herself, becoming the top scorer, they come forward to recognize her? The elders looked disdainfully at Ye Hai and Zhong Meifen, who dared to yell at Ye Qiu, shielding her like protective guardians.

Blocked by a group of tenacious elders, Zhong Meifen’s expression turned extremely ugly. With a heavy face, she scolded Ye Qiu, "What’s the matter with you? Did your education go to waste? Seeing me and your father, don’t you know to greet us, have you no manners?"

Before Ye Qiu could respond, Uncle Liu was displeased, "Hey, who are you to scold people here? Whom are you scolding? Who lacks manners?"

"Exactly, this is the top scorer, can you just scold her casually? Who are you to our top scorer?" chimed in a nearby old lady.

Faced with a barrage of scolding from the group of elders and seeing Ye Qiu standing indifferent behind, Zhong Meifen trembled with anger, pointing at Ye Qiu and shouted, "I’m her mother, of course, I can discipline her. What’s it to you how I educate my child?"

"You say Ye Qiu is your child just like that? I don’t think she looks like one bit!" Uncle Liu retorted sarcastically, "Ye Qiu is my adopted granddaughter, and I wouldn’t know about her situation? You say you’re her mom, do you have any proof?"

"I need proof to be her mom?" Zhong Meifen glared in anger.

Uncle Liu spread his hands, "Isn’t proof necessary? Nowadays, there are too many scammers. Who knows where you came from! I won’t make it hard for you, if you say Ye Qiu is your child, her household registration should be at your place, right? Show us and we’ll believe you."

"Household registration?" Zhong Meifen was speechless, as when Ye Qiu was born, it was another girl, and her father-in-law and mother-in-law absolutely refused to register Ye Qiu under their household, so Ye Qiu’s registration was on the Zhong Family’s side.

Later, Ye Qiu grew up in the Zhong Family. Even though she found it troublesome when they took her in two years ago, she never changed her household registration, so she really couldn’t provide that evidence.

"What? Can’t produce it now? Still claiming you’re not scammers? Are you here to deceive us now that our Ye Qiu has become the provincial top scorer? Be careful, I might call the police!" Uncle Liu sneered.

"You are being unreasonable." Zhong Meifen became angry, "She is my daughter, Ye Qiu, come back with me."

At this point, Ye Hai was also glaring at Ye Qiu with a dark expression. He usually cares a lot about face, and now, because Ye Qiu teamed up with outsiders to criticize them, Ye Hai had been furious from the start. Even Ye Qiu becoming the top scorer couldn’t quench his anger.

At this moment, he felt his daughter was being completely unreasonable. What kind of child teams up with outsiders to accuse their own parents?

"Ye Qiu, you should know even if you became the provincial top scorer, it doesn’t mean you are immediately successful. There are plenty of down-and-out scholars in this world. If people start saying that this year’s top science student is a rebellious, impulsive child, who disrespects family and likes to steal, do you think that’s good for you?" Ye Hai threatened.

"Oh, you dare to threaten people?" Uncle Liu became angry, he had never seen such parents before.

"Are you even my family?" Ye Qiu stood up, looking straight at Ye Hai, "I’m seventeen this year, how long have you raised me? At most, it was just a year, right? Have you ever taught me anything? No, everything is my fault, you dislike me for coming from the countryside, for not being able to please others, and even more for being a girl, so you kicked me out of the house during the New Year."

"Isn’t this your fault? Would I scold you if you hadn’t stolen your sister’s money and refused to admit it?" Zhong Meifen accused.

"I said I’ve never stolen any money." Ye Qiu coldly denied.

"If you didn’t steal the money, how could you afford such expensive clothes?" Zhong Meifen looked at Ye Qiu still talking back, feeling that her daughter’s character was already rotten, so what if she became the top scorer? Maybe in the future, she would end up in jail.

"That piece of clothing was bought by my spouse to thank Ye Qiu for taking her to the hospital, as a New Year gift. The child only had those two worn cotton clothes for New Year, whereas your other two children had new clothes without repeats. We buy them when you don’t, and you accuse us of encouraging theft? What kind of parents are you?" Uncle Liu couldn’t believe their audacity and defended Ye Qiu with indignant shouts.

"You are so generous to buy such expensive clothes for a stranger child?" Zhong Meifen expressed disbelief, "Besides, do you even have the money to buy it?"

"I don’t have money?" Uncle Liu laughed angrily. Even though he spent his years working as a security guard, it didn’t mean that he and his spouse only lived off that salary. Not to mention the yearly living cost sent by his daughter overseas, the rental income from several properties under his and his spouse’s name was substantial. How could he not afford a piece of clothing? What a joke!

"Oh, Lao Liu, I just found out you are broke!"

"What? Did house prices fall? Are the shops under your name worthless now?"

"Or did your son-in-law’s big company go bankrupt? That shouldn’t be the case, wasn’t it just last year that they said he made several hundred million in net profit?"

Several elders teased Uncle Liu, looking at Ye Hai and Zhong Meifen with an extremely mocking expression. Today, they finally saw what kind of people the birth parents of this top scorer are. No wonder Uncle Liu was so angry; they wouldn’t swallow this kind of treatment either. But fortunately, with Uncle Liu protecting her, this girl wasn’t destroyed by her own family.
