Chapter 774: Asking for Help

Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation

Thats right! Lengan, lately Ive been reminiscing about the past, Lin Wanqin quickly chimed in. Back then, we truly poured all our efforts into you because you were our biological daughter. We

Ye Lengan raised her hand, halting Lin Wanqins words. Theres no need to play on emotions here. We all know the state of our relations.h.i.+p. Its unnecessary and frankly tiresome.

Ye Li and Lin Wanqins faces turned visibly sour at her blunt words. Although they had antic.i.p.ated this reaction before coming here, facing it directly was still difficult.

Straightening his expression, Ye Li got to the point. Lengan, we came here today with a request for your help.

I refuse, Ye Lengan interjected without hesitation. I dont agree.

This immediate rejection caught Ye Li off guard. You havent even heard our request yet. Why reject it so hastily?

Thats right, Lin Wanqin added anxiously. Its just a small matter, and it would be effortless for you. Hear us out before deciding.

No need, Ye Lengan replied coolly, shaking her head. Regardless of what you want, my answer remains the same. Our relations.h.i.+p is over, and I have no interest in rekindling it.

Lengan, dont be so quick to refuse, Ye Li urged. This could benefit you as well. Its a win-win situation for us.

I highly doubt theres any win-win situation between us, Ye Lengan retorted with a hint of sarcasm. Youre not fooling anyone by suddenly being humble. We both know the reality of our relations.h.i.+p. Your sudden humility is merely a result of needing something from me.

Lengan, let us finish, Ye Li persisted urgently. The Ye Group is currently facing financial difficulties. If you invest, I can arrange for you to receive a 10% stake in the company. Its a good deal for you, isnt it?

Ye Lengan suddenly realized the purpose of Ye Li and Lin Wanqins visit. Previously informed by Huangfu Ruiling, she knew the Ye family was on the brink of collapse. It seemed that moment had arrived. Otherwise, Ye Li and Lin Wanqin wouldnt have swallowed their pride to seek her help.

Understood. Ye Lengan nodded. And I still refuse. Theres no need to convince me further.

Why? Ye Lis voice rose in frustration. This could benefit you too. You know the Ye Group is profitable. This is just a temporary setback.

Lets cut to the chase. Ye Lengan reclined lazily on the sofa. You think the Ye Groups situation is a secret? Everyone who needs to know already does. If there were truly good prospects, why would you turn to the wrong daughter? And dont a.s.sume Im unaware of your intentions. Your confidence in reviving the Ye Group through my investment is solely because of Huangfu Ruiling. As soon as the news of Huangfu Ruilings fiance investing in the Ye Group spreads, the company will have substantial backing. Your flattering words are just an attempt to exploit me.

This blunt truth left Ye Li and Lin Wanqin red-faced and speechless. They felt exposed, unable to hide their intentions.

Lengan, please help us, Lin Wanqin pleaded, standing up and kneeling before Ye Lengan. Consider it a token of grat.i.tude for my years of care for you. Isnt that reasonable? Besides, its not difficult for you.

Dont bring up the past, Ye Lengan replied coldly. Remember, you accepted five million to sever our ties. We have no relations.h.i.+p now, and theres no need to reminisce. I wont waste any more time.

Ye Li and Lin Wanqins expressions darkened considerably, and when they looked at Ye Lengan, there was a hidden but palpable sense of resentment in their eyes.

Some feelings cannot be bought. Lin Wanqin addressed Ye Lengan, still unwilling to give up. From childhood to adulthood, I took care of you. Have you forgotten all of that? Do you remember when you were sick as a child, and I took care of you tirelessly? None of this can simply vanish because of a few words from you.

As Lin Wanqin recounted the past, Ye Lengans expression remained unchanged, showing no signs of being moved. In fact, she continued to eat the snacks prepared by Sister Li as she listened.

Her relaxed demeanor stood in stark contrast to Lin Wanqins emotional plea.

Seeing Ye Lengans response, Lin Wanqin found herself at a loss for words. She felt like a clown, dancing in front of Ye Lengan and becoming the subject of her amus.e.m.e.nt.

In front of Ye Lengan, she had lost all her dignity.

Youre done? Ye Lengan remarked as Lin Wanqin fell silent. Setting aside the pastries in her hand, she brushed off the crumbs and continued, You can leave now. Goodbye. I wont see you off.

Ye Li and Lin Wanqin exchanged a glance but showed no intention of leaving. Clearly, they were not willing to depart just yet.
