The Visit

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ye Leng'an had just returned home when she received a call from Ye Shen telling her that he was going to visit her. She could not help but sigh. Then, she rushed back to the old house.

By the time Ye Leng'an arrived, Ye Shen and Li Zhaohui were already waiting outside the door. There was also a boy beside them. The boy, looking quite a bit like Ye Shen, was about twelve years old. At this moment, he was standing there, looking around with a hint of impatience on his face.

"Leng'an, you're back!" Li Zhaohui was the first to see Ye Leng'an. She gave a big smile and immediately went up to her. "Why did you come back so late after school?"

"Something came up." Ye Leng'an said calmly. Then, she went forward to open the door and let them come inside.

A moment later, they all sat down on the sofa, and there was a bottle of mineral water in front of each of them.

Ye Leng'an was a little surprised by their sudden visit, but this was not totally unexpected. However, she wasn't in the mood to entertain them. It was already good enough that they were offered mineral water. She wouldn't make tea for them.

Both Ye Shen and Li Zhaohui seemed a little uneasy. They didn't know why they were so nervous in front of a teenage girl. However, even so, they were still reluctant to let go of their scheme.

Previously, they thought that the old house Ye Leng'an mentioned was just a small one. But after seeing it with their own eyes, they were even more excited.

Although this residential area was developed a long time ago, it did not seem old. Also, the facilities in this neighborhood were very complete. Ye Leng'an's house was in a good location. It had three bedrooms and two living rooms. Compared to their house, this one was better. They became more determined to get this house.

"Leng'an, look, this is your younger brother." Ye Shen pulled Ye Ping over and winked at him. "Pingping, don't you always want to see your sister? Now you finally meet her. Say hello!"

"Hello, sister, I'm Ye Ping." Ye Ping got the hint from Ye Shen and quickly said, "You're really rich! Living alone in such a big house."

While he was talking, his eyes darted around. The greed in his eyes could not be hidden. Before coming here, his father had already said that this house would be his soon.

Ye Ping was still too young to hide his thoughts.

Ye Leng'an naturally saw it too. She sneered secretly. Indeed, he was evil at the root. Ye Ping was so spoiled at such a young age, so she knew he wouldn't be able to amount to much in the future.

"Leng'an, your brother isn't good at communication. Don't blame him." Li Zhaohui tugged at Ye Ping and then looked at Ye Leng'an with a calculating look in her eyes. "However, your younger brother is right about one thing. Don't you feel lonely living alone in such a big house? Since you've already left that Ye family, you should come back to us. Why don't you move back today?"

Li Zhaohui had no intention of letting Ye Leng'an move into their house at first. But now that she saw this house, she changed her mind. Only when Ye Leng'an moved out would they have a chance to take this house for themselves.

"That's true!" Ye Shen quickly chimed in, "Your mother is right. You're not an adult yet. It's too dangerous for you to live alone outside. It's better for you to live with us."

"Do you really want me to move back?" Ye Leng'an rested her chin on one hand and said with interest, "If I move back, this house will be left empty."

"No, your dad can help you rent it out!" Li Zhaohui hurriedly said, "This is a small matter."

Ye Shen kept nodding.

Ye Ping wanted to say something, but he was stopped by their warning glares.

"Oh, that's good." Just as the three of them thought that Ye Leng'an was about to agree, she suddenly changed her tone. "The plan is pretty good. It's just a pity that I don't plan to move back. I'm already used to living alone."

The sudden rejection stunned the three of them.

"Leng'an, we are your parents and also your guardians." After hearing Ye Leng'an's words, Ye Shen said in a belligerent tone, "You have to move back home."

Initially, he had planned to have a good talk with Ye Leng'an. After all, the other Ye family had raised her for so many years. He didn't know if they would help her in the future.

However, he could no longer continue pretending to be kind and patient when facing her impervious attitude.

"How do you know that you're my guardians?" Ye Leng'an gave them a faint smile, her tone mocking. "Besides, even if you claim to be my parents, you have no proof, right?"
