Ye Zhen knew that Mother Ye didn't like her.
"Ye Zhen" had a cowardly, dull personality, mediocre ability, and taciturn personality. Compared to the lively and cheerful Ye Qing, who had a strong personality and knew how to make people happy, not only was she not liked by Mother Ye, but she was also not liked by Family Ye's friends and relatives.
The main reason was that she didn't know how to make people happy.
During the holidays, Ye Qing would smile and ask the adults in the family for red packets in a sweet and coquettish tone. However, Ye Zhen would only blush and stand helplessly at the side. She would stammer for a long time without saying anything that would make people happy.
Therefore, when people mentioned the Family Ye's twin daughters, they would praise Ye Qing again and again. However, when it came to Ye Zhen, they could only smile awkwardly and couldn't bring themselves to praise her.
Under such circumstances, Ye Mu's thoughts towards the two daughters were naturally different. She liked the outstanding Ye Qing and focused all her energy on Ye Qing. Ye Qing was her pride. In the long run, it was inevitable that she would favor one and discriminate against the other.
Perhaps for a mother, they were both her daughters. Why couldn't she treat them equally?
However, when Mother Ye gave birth in the hospital, Ye Qing gave birth smoothly, but Ye Zhen's birth almost took Mother Ye's life. Because of this incident, Mother Ye never held Ye Zhen again after she was born. Every time she saw Ye Zhen, she would think of herself on the operating table, just one step away from the gates of hell.
If she could choose again, she would definitely choose to give birth to Ye Zhen again. However, at the same time, she wouldn't pour too much love into Ye Zhen.
Just like the operation on the operating table twenty-two years ago, Ye Zhen had exhausted all her maternal love.
After chatting politely for a while, they ate the lunch prepared by the Family Ye. Alcohol was a must, but Lu Beichuan's health wasn't good, so Father Lu downed the entire bottle of alcohol. He was drunk and kept calling Lu Beichuan a good son-in-law. He dragged Lu Beichuan to the study. Lu Beichuan was well-cultivated in the Family Ye and had a good temper. He was neither servile nor overbearing and was very polite.
In comparison, Father Ye seemed like an impolite nouveau riche.
Actually, he didn't seem like one. The Family Ye was indeed a nouveau riche. Father Ye inherited the Family Ye coal mine in his early years and earned his first bucket of gold. He came to the prosperous city to show off his skills, but in the end, he invested all his money into it and didn't make a splash. After a few years, the Family Ye was slowly drained. Just as the Family Ye was about to go bankrupt and their house was about to be auctioned off, the Old Master Lu found Father Ye and invested money to save the Family Ye's life.
Now, the only thing left was the Lu Clan. If it weren't for the Lu Clan, the Family Ye would really go bankrupt.
Lu Beichuan was dragged into the study by Father Ye, while Ye Zhen was brought into the bedroom by Mother Ye.
Clothes make the man. Ye Zhen was different from before. She was dressed in expensive clothes and jewelry, with her head held high and her chest puffed out. She had an extraordinary aura, and when she walked beside Lu Beichuan, she really did look like Mrs. Lu. It was as if she had been reborn as a different person.
Mother Ye sized up Ye Zhen. Her daughter had become outstanding, so she should be proud. But in Mother Ye's eyes, it was a bit of an eyesore.
If it were Ye Qing, Mrs. Lu would be even more outstanding. Mother Ye thought.
"Mom, why are you looking for me?"
Mother Ye suppressed the bitterness in her heart and forced a smile. "You've been married to the Lu Family for more than a month now. Mom just wants to ask if you're doing well in the Lu Family."
Ye Zhen answered half-heartedly, "It's alright."
"Lu Beichuan immediately took you back to the Lu Family after you woke up. I could tell at a glance that the gifts Mrs. Lu prepared were meticulously prepared. It's clear that the Lu Family values you. Zhen Zhen, what do you think? Can you talk to Lu Beichuan and ask him to help look for Ye Qing? "
At the mention of Ye Qing, Mother Ye sighed. "That child has been gone for more than a month and there hasn't been any news of her at all. The money I transferred to her bank account hasn't been touched at all. She probably doesn't want me to find her. But she's been pampered since she was young and can't take any hardship. How can she live without money? Your dad and I only know a limited number of people and haven't been able to find her until now. The Lu Family knows a lot of people, so they might have a way."
Ye Zhen listened in silence.
"I don't ask for anything now. If she likes it, so be it. As long as she comes back, I'll agree to her marriage with that boy. But right now, there isn't even any news. What is this? Zhen Zhen, can you talk to Lu Beichuan later and ask him to think of a way? "
To Ye Zhen, it was actually more advantageous for her if Ye Qing came back than if she didn't.
After all, the sooner she came back, the sooner she could get away. The big villain Lu Beichuan wasn't causing trouble now because his leg hadn't recovered. Once his leg recovered, who knew how he would torment people? The first person he would deal with would be his father!
As the villain's wife, she probably wouldn't have a good ending either.
But Mother Ye's biased words made Ye Zhen bitterly disappointed.
Back then, for her own selfish desires, she sent Ye Zhen to the Lu Family without any explanation. She had never thought about her own daughter, nor did she care about how her daughter would be treated in the Lu Family. She had placed all her thoughts on her sister, who had eloped with someone else. If only Mother Ye had called her to comfort her during the time that Ye Zhen had been married into the Lu Family, she wouldn't have been so bitterly disappointed.
"Mom, you've seen what's on the surface. When I was in the Lu Family... Mrs. Lu actually didn't like me very much. She felt that we weren't compatible with each other in terms of social status. Why would a family like the Lu Family care about me?"
Ye Zhen cleverly used the word "in the past."
Mother Ye frowned. "But I've seen that Lu Beichuan is quite attentive to you. He's been holding your hand ever since he came in and even put food in your bowl. I saw him once more a year ago, and he's never been as attentive to the women around him as he is to you."
Ye Zhen sighed. "Mom, do you really think that someone like Lu Beichuan would like a wife that he married without his consent so soon after waking up?"
Naive! Too naive!
She didn't know what was on Lu Beichuan's mind, but she knew that this ruthless and insensitive villain was definitely using her to plot something big!
Wife, pawn. She was just a pawn.
"This... Then why don't you mention it? The Lu Family won't reject you with just a few words. It's just looking for someone..."
"It's just looking for someone... If you really think it's that easy to find someone, then why haven't you found anyone yet? What's more, Sister eloped with someone. She was deliberately trying to escape. Instead of secretly looking for someone, why don't you release an advertisement saying that you've agreed to her marriage with that man? They'll come back when they see the news. "
"No way!" Mother Ye said sternly, "How can that be?! If word of this gets out, how will your sister live? "
"Then how will I live in the Lu Family?"
Upon hearing this, Mother Ye was slightly taken aback. Her daughter, who had been quiet since she was a child, was now talking back to her with a glib tongue. She couldn't believe it, and the anger in her heart rose.
"Ye Zhen, you have to know that your sister was originally going to marry into the Lu Family. Lu Beichuan was also going to marry your sister! All of this originally belonged to your sister, so what? Now that you've married into the Lu Family and become Mrs. Lu, you think you can throw your weight around? If your sister hadn't left, would you still have the chance to speak like this in front of me? "
Ye Zhen didn't care at all. She even yawned out of boredom. "Fine, then ask my sister to come back. I'll give everything to her."
She couldn't ask for more.
What was so good about being the wife of a villain? She was destined to have a miserable ending.
"You..." Mother Ye was so angry that she couldn't speak.
"Mom, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
Ignoring Mother Ye's flustered and exasperated expression, Ye Zhen opened the door. Lu Beichuan was sitting in a wheelchair very close to her.
Ye Zhen was shocked. She quickly pulled the door shut and secretly prayed that the room was soundproof.
"Why are you here?"
The study was on the second floor. This was the third floor. How did Lu Beichuan get up here?
Before Ye Zhen could think further, Lu Beichuan said coldly, "Your father is drunk in the study. I can't take care of him."
"I'll go now." As she spoke, Ye Zhen couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Did you hear what I said to my mom just now?"
Lu Beichuan looked at her in confusion. "What did you say?"
His expression didn't seem to be fake. Ye Zhen smiled easily. "Nothing."
Father Ye was drunk and snoring on the sofa in the study. Ye Zhen rudely shook him awake and told him to sleep in the room.
Father Ye woke up and saw Ye Zhen. He grabbed her hand and asked, "Where's Beichuan? Where's my good son-in-law? "
Ye Zhen rolled her eyes at him. "Your good son-in-law went upstairs."
Father Ye sat up and slapped his forehead to wake himself up. Seeing that there was no one around, he pulled Ye Zhen to the sofa and sat down. "Zhen Zhen, can you do me a favor?"
He reeked of alcohol. Ye Zhen quietly moved away from him. "What favor?"
"I saw that Beichuan treated you very well today. How about this? When you go back, tell Beichuan to increase his investment in my company. I've been thinking of a new project recently. It's guaranteed to be a winning deal!"
... Another one.
Ye Zhen thought about it and said helplessly, "But Dad, Mom just looked for me. She wants me to talk to Lu Beichuan and ask him to help look for my sister. I just got married not long ago. It's not good to keep making requests..."
Father Ye panicked when he heard Ye Zhen. "Why do you care about your mom? Who doesn't know how to look for someone? Don't help your mom? Your sister has been spoiled rotten by your mom. Now she even dares to run away from home and elope with someone. If this gets out, how can I still keep my face? Dad's company matters are more important. You should talk to Beichuan, okay? "
Ye Zhen looked conflicted. "But Mom..."
"I'll talk to your mom!" Father Ye stood up in annoyance. A drunk man's temper was especially irritable. "Your sister deserves it. She didn't want to be Mrs. Lu and had to elope with a poor boy. Don't worry about her! Let her go! "
As he spoke, he went up to the third floor noisily.
As for how Father Ye told Mother Ye in the end, Ye Zhen wasn't too sure. She only knew that during dinner, Mother Ye's eyes were red and swollen, and Father Ye was timid and didn't dare to speak loudly.
At the dinner table, Lu Beichuan occasionally mentioned, "I heard from Ye Qing that she has a younger sister called Ye Zhen, right? Why don't I see Ye Zhen? "
The family immediately became vigilant.
"She... went overseas... Sigh, she was born with a playful personality. Don't worry about her."
Lu Beichuan looked at Ye Zhen and picked up a piece of beef for her. "A playful personality? Twin sisters have quite a big difference in personality. "
Ye Zhen awkwardly took Lu Beichuan's beef and chewed it slowly.
Before returning home, Lu Beichuan had planned to spend the night in the Family Ye's room, but Mother Ye clearly didn't want Lu Beichuan and Ye Zhen to sleep in Ye Qing's room. However, Ye Zhen's room didn't seem presentable, so they had to prepare a new guest room for the two of them to sleep in.
Ye Zhen was in the bathroom preparing to run hot water for Young Master Lu to take a bath. Lu Beichuan turned his wheelchair around and blocked the bathroom door. He suddenly asked, "Doesn't Lin Zhan like you? Why did he elope with your sister? "
Ye Zhen, who was bending over to measure the temperature of the water, suddenly stiffened. She forced herself to calm down and turned around. She pretended to be surprised and said, "You investigated me!"
"I woke up with a wife, so of course I had to investigate thoroughly. Besides, this kind of thing isn't a secret."
Ye Zhen was slightly angry. She seemed to have been provoked to the point where she spoke without thinking. "Even so, you can't investigate my private affairs. You can ask me directly if you want to know anything!"
"Okay, then let me ask you." Lu Beichuan leaned back in his wheelchair and looked at her leisurely. "Lin Zhan likes you, and you like him too. Why did he elope with your sister?"
Ye Zhen looked at him silently.
A suicidal question! This was a suicidal question!
How could she answer this?
She was now Ye Qing, and the real Ye Qing eloped with Lin Zhan. The Family Ye secretly looked for people in the name of Ye Zhen and Lin Zhan eloping. However, if you casually asked Ye Qing's friends, you would know that Ye Qing and Lin Zhan loved each other to death.
She loved her older sister deeply, but in the end, she eloped with her younger sister. How could she explain this?
And looking at Lu Beichuan's attitude, it seemed like he was going to get to the bottom of this.
Ye Zhen thought about it for a long time, but there was no other way. She bit her lip and suppressed her grief as she said in a low voice, "I... I don't have a good relationship with my sister. Although my sister didn't speak much since we were young, she always liked to steal things from me. Lin Zhan and I were truly in love, but... but my sister also liked him. She repeatedly came between me and Lin Zhan, and in the end... in the end..."
Ye Zhen choked with sobs after saying these few words.
"I really loved Lin Zhan, but Ye Zhen was my sister. I couldn't hurt her. Since she also liked Lin Zhan, I could only back out and let them be together. But I didn't expect that my sister would love Lin Zhan so much that she eloped with Lin Zhan because her parents didn't agree. "Ye Zhen's eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Lu Beichuan." I just talked to Mom. They're willing to let my sister and Lin Zhan be together. Can you help me find Ye Zhen? "
"Your sister stole your sweetheart, and you still want to help her find her?"
Ye Zhen said in a low voice. "No matter what, she's still my biological sister from the same mother. No matter what happens, I have to forgive her, right?"
What a double entendre.
Ye Zhen was really proud of herself for being so quick-witted.
Not only did she make Lu Beichuan a cuckold, but she also belittled herself and raised Ye Qing's status. She even found a way out for herself!
Moreover, what she said was the truth. "Ye Zhen" really did like Lin Zhan.
Lu Beichuan looked at her from his wheelchair. Although he was sitting in a wheelchair and was shorter than Ye Zhen by half a head, his aura didn't diminish. Under his straight and thick black eyebrows, his eyes were slightly narrowed, and the corners of his mouth were curled up into a half-smile. Just looking at him made one's heart tremble. He looked like he was watching a show.
"Do you like Lin Zhan that much?"
Ye Zhen gritted her teeth and nodded. She added fuel to the fire. "Yes. I'll never be able to forget him in this lifetime! "
How could a normal man sit still after being made a cuckold in front of his wife?
This was a matter of dignity and face. Even a ninja turtle wouldn't be able to tolerate it, right?
What's more, he was an extremely ruthless villain, the heir of the Lu Family.
Lu Beichuan smiled and unbuttoned his shirt from his Adam's apple. "Let go of your sweetheart first. Come and help your husband take off his clothes and take a shower."
