Yuan Ping and Chu Ye turned around at the same time and looked in the direction of the voice.

The man was about fifty years old, dressed like a wealthy businessman, with a pair of round, high-end sunglasses on his nose and an H-marked crocodile leather belt around his waist.

Next to him was a woman who was dressed in gorgeous clothes and wearing lots of jewels. She looked much younger than him.

When he got closer and saw Yuan Ping's face clearly, the rich businessman apologized quickly, took off his sunglasses and said to Chu Ye and Yuan Ping: "Sorry, I recognized the wrong person."

He raised his hand and rubbed his eyes. "I'm old and my eyesight is blurry. I'll have to wear reading glasses next time I go out."

This person is Ye Ling's father, Ye Zhenhai.

Yuan Ping said: "It doesn't matter."

She turned her head and stared into the mirror, continuing to study the beads around her neck.

The woman next to Ye Zhenhai also saw the jade necklace on her neck. Her eyes lit up and she walked over to ask the store manager, "Do you still have the necklace she was wearing? Find one for me to try. How much is it?"

The store manager said, "There is only one of this quality, and it costs 18 million."

The woman secretly clicked her tongue when she heard this.

Seeing this, Yuan Ping reached out, took off the necklace from her neck and placed it on the velvet tray on the counter.

Jade is not in your hands.

If I hand it directly to the woman, what if she doesn't catch it and I can't explain it.

The woman picked up the pearl necklace and put it around her neck. She looked at herself in the mirror, unable to let it go, and called Ye Zhenhai to see it from time to time.

Ye Zhenhai responded absentmindedly, but he kept secretly observing Yuan Ping from the corner of his eye.

Chu Ye also helped Yuan Ping choose a bright green bead necklace, which was a lighter color and more suitable for young women.

Yuan Ping liked this one very much and the other party offered six million for it.

Chu Ye took out a card from her bag and was about to pay.

Ye Zhenhai raised his hand to stop them and asked, "Are you from outside the city?"

Chu Ye said: "Yes, I am from Kyoto."

Ye Zhenhai laughed, "No wonder!"

He raised two fingers to the store manager and helped Chu Ye negotiate the price. After several rounds of negotiations, the price was lowered to 3.6 million.

Chu Ye thanked him and wanted to give him some money in return.

Ye Zhenhai laughed a few times, glanced at Yuan Ping and said, "No need, I'm not short of money, I just think this girl looks familiar, a bit like my wild girl. That girl married to your northern country, and she never came back to see me all year round."

His voice became slightly hoarse at the end.

Chu Ye asked: "Which city in the north did your daughter marry?"

Ye Zhenhai replied: "Island City."

"Who did she marry?"

Ye Zhenhai said disdainfully: "My surname is Yu."

Skillful.

Chu Ye asked again: "Is the son-in-law's name Yu Cheng?"

The disdain on Ye Zhenhai's face became even stronger. "What son-in-law? Don't even mention it. That kid's mother...his father...he...ah!"

Ye Zhenhai sighed heavily.

I found that none of Yucheng’s family members had anything to show for themselves.

His adoptive mother, Cheng Qiong, was executed for murder, his father, Yu Di, was a playboy, and Yu Cheng was just a lazy rich second-generation.

Ye Ling has already given birth to a child, but she still hasn't held a wedding. It's so shameful!

Chu Ye raised the corners of his lips slightly, "Uncle Ye, Yu Cheng and I know each other. It's better to meet by chance than to meet by chance. Let's have lunch together at noon. Thank you for helping us bargain. You don't have to accept the red envelope, but you can't refuse the meal anymore."

Only then did Ye Zhenhai take the time to look at him carefully.

Seeing that he had an extraordinary appearance and was well-mannered, one could tell at first glance that he was a young man from a well-born, aristocratic family.

Ye Zhenhai pointed at his face with one hand and patted his head with the other. "You, I remember now. You are Mr. Chu. Look at my memory. It's been three years since we last met. You have become more mature and handsome. I almost didn't recognize you. It was you that Xiao Ling liked back then. What a pity, ah!"

It’s a pity that Ye Ling couldn’t marry him.

He looked at Yuan Ping again.

I feel that Yuan Ping is such a lucky girl, marrying such a good and handsome man. His appearance, ability, conversation, family background and parents are all impeccable.

Ye Ling was not so lucky.

The woman shouted that she wanted to buy the necklace.

Ye Zhenhai scolded, "What are you buying? There are so many at home that I can't even wear them all. Let's go and have dinner with Master Chu."

The woman was a little unhappy, but still put the necklace down.

The group went to a relatively luxurious seafood restaurant nearby.

After ordering the food, Ye Zhenhai still couldn't help but glance at Yuan Ping.

He knew it was impolite to keep staring at her, but he couldn't help it.

He was very curious, how could two people who were not related to each other look so alike? The more he looked at them, the more they looked alike.

Besides, he missed that naughty girl Ye Ling, but Ye Ling hadn't come back to see him for several years.

He was also angry and didn't go to the island city to see her.

After a glass of wine, Ye Zhenhai couldn't help but ask Yuan Ping: "Miss, where are you from?"

Yuan Ping was not familiar with him and did not know his character, so she could not tell him her true background. She replied, "Uncle, I am from Kyoto."

"Oh, you're from Kyoto, what's your last name?"

"The last name is Yuan."

Ye Zhenhai rubbed his temples slowly with his fingers, thought for a while and said, "Kyoto, surname Yuan, Yuan is quite rare in Kyoto. To be able to marry Mr. Chu, you must have an extraordinary background, you must be a member of the Yuan family."

You can find out about this kind of thing by just asking.

Yuan Ping no longer concealed it and nodded, "Yes."

Ye Zhenhai suddenly realized, "No wonder, no wonder Xiao Ling lost."

Chu Ye didn't like to hear such words.

He liked Yuan Ping because she was more feminine, graceful and elegant, capable and efficient, and her thoughts were in line with his.

Ye Ling is carefree and unfeminine, making her more suitable as a friend.

Halfway through the meal, Chu Ye made the excuse of going out to answer a phone call, settled the bill, and went to the front desk to ask for four boxes of Moutai and four cartons of good cigarettes, and asked the clerk to deliver them to Ye Zhenhai's car.

It was considered as repaying him for helping him bargain.

He doesn't like to owe favors to people he doesn't know well.

After the meal, they exchanged a few pleasantries, exchanged contact information, and then parted ways.

Back at the hotel, Ye Zhenhai dialed Ye Ling's number and said loudly, "Xiao Ling, I came to Yuncheng to look at stones. Guess who I met in the mall?"

Ye Ling asked: "My mother?"

Ye Zhenhai was annoyed, "Your mother is a fairy! Your mother has been dead for many years. If I were to meet her, I would meet her at night. If I met her in broad daylight, wouldn't it be like seeing a ghost?"

Ye Ling was even more annoyed, "If you have something to say, say it now!"

"Chu Ye's wife looks a lot like you."

"She is much more beautiful than me, don't flatter me."

"You're not ugly, you just lack femininity." Ye Zhenhai sighed, "If your mother were still alive, she would have taught you to be like her. Unfortunately, your mother died early, and I was busy with business in those years. I didn't take care of you, and you became a wild girl."

Ye Ling was getting impatient. "Is it useful to say all this nonsense? Old Ye! You are really old and have reached menopause! Since you are old and confused, I will not invite you to my wedding to avoid embarrassing me."

Ye Zhenhai sighed, and suddenly said quietly: "Your aunt's family also has a daughter. If she is still alive, she should be about the same age as Yuan Ping."

Ye Ling was stunned. "Didn't they say my mother is an orphan? Where did my aunt come from?"

Realizing that he had let the cat out of the bag, Ye Zhenhai quickly slapped his mouth and covered it up by saying, "I'm drunk. You don't have an aunt."

Ye Ling didn't believe it and asked, "Did my aunt break up with us, or is she dead?"

Ye Zhenhai said nothing, thinking about how to make this matter go away.

Ye Ling thought he had acquiesced and continued to ask, "She's dead, right? How did she die? Old Ye, tell me quickly! If you dare to lie, Xinxin and Xiaoze will never call you grandpa again in this life!"

Seeing that he couldn't lie to her, Ye Zhenhai had to tell the truth: "When your aunt was young, she married a drug enforcement officer. They were busted and killed. Your little cousin was also killed when she was only a little girl."
