Ye Kong's reputation in Yuzhou's upper circles is indeed very loud, but it is a mixed reputation.

Naturally, the people who were involved in that incident were extremely displeased with her and even watched her covetously.

Even if it has nothing to do with that incident, there are many people who, for the sake of self-protection, have ordered their children not to associate with her - for example, Zhou Song and Wei Zhiyu, both received orders from their parents, and therefore, they have to come to the coffee shop quietly recently.

However, apart from this, there are also families like Xu Yang and Tu Wan who encourage their children to interact more with Ye Kong.

After all, the wealthy families in a city are always closely connected. When things are bad for some families, there will always be another group of people who benefit.

For example, the second generation who have been gathering at "a newspaper office" recently.

But the Wen family is different from them.

The Wen family was forcibly dragged into this by Ye Kong.

As the invisible richest man who has always stayed out of everything, this was the first time he was dragged into such a dispute. This matter obviously touched the bottom line of the head of the Wen family.

Therefore, Ye Kong's arrival today was not welcomed by anyone in the Wen family. Even the housekeeper received them with a serious face.

"It seems that your face as a young master is useless."

Ye Kong whispered as he pushed the person.

"After all, I am the eldest young master, not the head of a large family." Wen Can said indifferently, "Besides, I no longer have any real power in my hands."

"please."

The butler made an inviting gesture to them in front of him, with a formal smile on his face: "By the way, there is a sudden guest in our house today, I hope..."

He glanced at Ye Kong obscurely and said in a polite tone: "I hope Miss Ye can... give our Wen family some face and not be too lively like she was in the Qin family."

Ye Kong almost laughed at his choice of words.

"What if I don't give you face?" she said casually.

housekeeper:……

Fortunately, Ye Kong did not continue to tease the poor old man with an ugly face. She pushed Wen Can into the door.

The first thing I saw was the familiar and unfamiliar members of the Wen family scattered in various corners.

Sitting in the center position on the sofa, Wen Lian, who was surrounded by everyone, even smiled at her. Her attitude was gentle and calm. Ye Kong felt that she looked familiar, but he also felt a sense of nausea.

It took her several seconds to realize that this was how Wen Can usually behaved when no one was around. It was just that this person had learned the skin but not the bones, and the whole person exuded a greasy smell of forced pretense.

Ye Kong's eyes hurt from watching this. He followed the sound of footsteps coming from upstairs and saw Old Man Wen, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

The old man is still as energetic as ever.

Although he was leaning on a cane with one hand and his face was full of wrinkles, his neatly combed silver hair and the sparkling look in his eyes all showed that he had an oppressive aura that was different from that of an ordinary old man.

But this time, Ye Kong's eyes only swept over him and were attracted by another person.

It’s Qin Jianbai.

And it was Qin Jianbai who was wearing a mask.

He was supporting the old man's left arm and walking down the stairs, laughing and talking about something.

He looked down on the way and paused when he saw Ye Kong. He didn't say anything until he came in front of them. He smiled and said, "I heard that you were coming today, so I put on a mask. How is it? I didn't break your rules, did I?"

Ye Kong: ...

"Miss Ye is here."

The old man's calm voice sounded, and Ye Kong looked away.

Old Master Wen greeted her in a normal manner, but only glanced at Wen Can indifferently, raised his head and gestured: "Please take a seat. The time you came is quite coincidental. It's just dinner time, not even a minute early."

The old man was obviously indifferent, but the people following him became enthusiastic instead.

"A-chan is back?"

After hearing this, Ye Kong noticed that Wen Rong was there too.

He dressed more and more elegantly. Even at home or at family dinners, he was spotless from head to toe, with oil on his hair. He smiled brightly at Wen Can, as if he wanted to fill every wrinkle on his face with longing.

"I heard that you've fallen in love with desserts recently? I specially invited a master to make dessert today. You can try it later to see if it suits your taste. If it suits your taste, you can go home more often."

He walked over very naturally, wanting to take Ye Kong's place, and at the same time lowered his voice and said to Wen Can: "Don't be angry with your grandfather, apologize to him in front of everyone later and move back home, he will act as if nothing happened."

As he said this, he patted Wen Can's shoulder, as if it was a tacit hint.

But his next move to grasp the handle of the wheelchair was hindered by Ye Kong who stood still.

Wen Rong turned his head and looked at Ye Kong deliberately.

Ye Kong returned the direct gaze and tilted his head, his eyes seemed to ask "What do you mean?"

Wen Rong: ...

"What are you still standing there for? Come over here and eat!"

A stern scolding came from the old man in the restaurant over there.

The Wen family members who stayed in the living room stood up and hurried over. Among this hurried crowd, his steps were the most leisurely and slow, but his status could be seen.

Wen Lian also slowly walked to Ye Kong and the others, and also persuaded softly: "Brother, uncle is right, you should apologize to grandpa. You haven't seen him for a few days, and he was really angry. He even took medicine once."

"Really? Then didn't you good sons and grandsons comfort him?" Wen Can said expressionlessly, "How dare you live in this manor if you are so unfilial? You should move out like me."

Wen Rong and Wen Lian: ...

Ye Kong: ...

Wen Rong gave up the idea of ​​pushing him, just shook his head, sighed and left.

Wen Lian also smiled bitterly and quickened her pace. She looked helpless for Wen Can, but her steps were very casual.

"Your family is really interesting." Ye Kong said, "It's more interesting than singing opera."

"Is it good to look at or to listen to?" Wen Can asked, "You said a few days ago that this kind of drama is hard to watch."

"Things that are related to you are ugly, but things that are not related to you are of course interesting."

Ye Kong said this and pushed him into the restaurant.

He met the eyes behind the mask again. As a guest, he sat in the first seat below Mr. Wen, but there was only a glass of water in front of him, and it seemed that he had no intention of eating.

Ye Kong's eyes moved slightly, then he retracted them and looked somewhere else.

The restaurant today looked very different from the last time she was here.

There were two more long dining tables, and most of the people from the side branches sat at the other two tables. There were still only those few people at the main table where the old man was sitting.

But Wen Can's position was taken by Qin Jianbai, and opposite Qin Jianbai was Wen Rong, and below Wen Rong was Wen Lian.

If Wen Can and Ye Kong wanted to sit down, they could only go to the table next to Qin Jianbai - but there was not even a chair there.

It's obviously a warning.

Ye Kong lowered his eyelids, looked at the person in front of him, and asked calmly: "Where are you sitting?"

Wen Can's tone was calmer than hers: "It's up to you."

Ye Kong: "Okay."

She pushed the wheelchair straight towards Qin Jianbai and looked down at him: "Get out of the way."

"Miss Ye." The old man said without even raising his head, "This is our Wen family, not the Qin family."

"Hey, it's okay. I'm not eating anyway."

Qin Jianbai was the first to stand up and persuaded with a smile: "Come, Miss Ye, please sit down."

When he stood up, he was in a sideways position. The bright light shone through the two holes in his eyes and fell into his pupils. Although the shape of his eyes could not be seen clearly, the smile in his eyes could be seen.

This eye contact lasted throughout the entire process of him giving up his position, and was magnified in Ye Kong's perception like a slow motion.

She looked down at him with a blank expression, but her grip on the wheelchair tightened little by little.
