490 Is This How You Do It?

When the CEOs heard this, they indeed did not hold back. They each found a high-class seat and sat down. They chatted with one another and made some business friends.

After the CEOs finished paying their respects, Ye Hongliang also brought his children forward. The Old Master looked at them without any change in his expression. Then, he looked at Old Master Lei and Young Master Lei not far away and spoke earnestly to their Big Sister, Ye Wan.

“Ye Wan, I’ve arranged a good marriage for you. You should have heard from your cousin that this marriage is very suitable. You’re compatible and will bring unimaginable benefits to both the Ye and Lei families. You should understand.”

After saying that, he stood up with his wooden cane and waved at Young Master Lei. Young Master Lei immediately came forward and the Old Master continued.

“Nephew Lei can be said to be a dragon among men. He’s handsome and elegant. Moreover, he’s a returnee from overseas and has engaged in many businesses. Now, he has three companies under his name with a market value of tens of millions. He’s an upright and gentlemanly person. If you marry him, you’ll definitely enjoy life.”

“Nephew Lei, this is the eldest daughter of the Ye family’s branch family, Ye Wan. She’s currently the vice-president of Southeast Securities. She’s talented in poetry and is graceful. She’s also beautiful and gentle. If you marry Ye Wan, you’ll be a match made in heaven. You’re very suitable.”

Old Master Lei was also leaning on his walking stick at the side. There was no expression on his face. The wrinkles on his skin that had aged due to his old age had already appeared in layers and were covered in spots.

He looked at Ye Wan and didn’t pay much attention to her. After all, both families knew that this was just a marriage alliance. To put it nicely, it sounded like a marriage alliance, but to put it bluntly, it was just using the marriage of two juniors as a bargaining chip to build a foundation of trust for the business cooperation between the two families.

Therefore, he only took a few glances at her and spoke.

“Yes, our families are indeed compatible. It’s indeed not bad for Ye Wan to marry the descendant of the Lei family. I’ll wish the two of them a long life together and be united forever.”

“I’ll wish the two of them a long life together and be united forever.” These words were probably meant for the Old Master of the Ye family. In other words, he wanted the business to continue and not have any problems.

Ye Xuan also knew that there were many benefits for the main family after the marriage, in terms of their business and status, as well as various connections and so on. Moreover, they could obtain so many benefits by sacrificing a collateral relative. There was nothing to worry about.

However, after hearing the words of the two old masters, Ye Wan’s expression did not change. She lowered her head calmly and spoke without any hesitation.

“I’m sorry, I refuse.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.

Everyone was stunned on the spot and could not react for a moment.

The noisy voices in the entire banquet hall immediately disappeared, and the air instantly fell silent. Everyone was silent as they looked at Ye Wan in a daze.

After a long while, they came back to their senses and discussed this.

“Eh, no. Why are you rejecting the marriage?”

“I think this marriage is quite good. What is the collateral relative thinking? Marrying the Lei family will bring a lot of benefits.”

“It’s too rude to reject the marriage in front of so many people, especially the Old Master and Old Master Lei. No wonder she took a taxi.”

“Indeed, she’s really too uncultured. Seriously, she actually rejected such a good marriage.”

“Moreover, I heard that the marriage was already decided long ago. Now, she’s actually rejecting it. Isn’t she too disrespectful?”

“I did hear from the Ye family that the marriage has been arranged. However, from the looks of it, there might have been some mistakes in the middle. Who knows?”

While everyone was discussing this, Old Master Ye couldn’t stand it anymore. It was really embarrassing to be rejected by his junior in front of so many people.

Meanwhile, displeasure appeared on the faces of the people from the main family behind. They reprimanded Ye Wan gloomily.

“Little girl from the Ye family, what’s wrong with you? Are you rejecting the marriage we agreed on? Even if you’re willful, you can’t be so willful, right?”

“It’s such an important occasion. Are you not giving us any respect at all?”

“Why aren’t you sensible at all? Aren’t you aggrieved to marry Young Master Lei?”

“That’s right. Young Master Lei has such good conditions. Do you know how many people are fighting to propose to him outside? The threshold has been broken. You really don’t know what’s good for you.”

“Moreover, you were born into the Ye family. Why don’t you think about your family at all? In this state, the marriage between the Ye family and the Lei family is the best choice. You’re already an adult, but why aren’t you sensible at all? Don’t you think about your family?”

“This is simply nonsense! Everyone in the family is thinking of a good place for you. You really don’t know what’s good for you!”

Hearing the members of the main family saying that it was for her own good, the sister were furious. Ye Chan was even fuming with anger. Unable to suppress her anger, she shouted angrily.

“Why didn’t you ask someone from the main family to marry him? Why did you call us? Usually, there might not be any benefits for us. You don’t even remember us. Now that you’re looking for your benefits, you thought of us. Sacrificing Big Sister’s lifelong happiness for your benefits? Pfft!”

Seeing that his daughter had already spoken, Ye Hongliang naturally couldn’t let his daughter fight alone. He pointed at his peers in the main family angrily and scolded them.

“Don’t you know what kind of people you are? You’ve done so much business, but I haven’t seen any dividends from you. You usually come to cheat me and ask me to settle all kinds of lousy things for you. Now, you actually want my eldest daughter to marry into the Lei family and bring benefits to you. What about us? Even if there are benefits, I won’t agree to the marriage. Even if the person my daughter likes is a poor boy, I’ll agree. You’re worse than animals. Are you still family? Pfft! Do you want my daughter to marry someone else? No way!”

Ye Hongliang vented all his long-standing anger. The atmosphere was exaggerated to the extreme, causing the other sisters to speak up and shout angrily.

“I’ve never seen anyone as shameless as you!”

“You only know how to sacrifice others for your own benefits. What family? Are collateral relatives like us destined to be sacrificed and consumed by you?”

“What a selfish group of people. I’ve long been angry with you. What do you mean by family? It’s fine if we don’t stay in such a family! Without you, our lives won’t be bad. Instead, our lives will get better and better!”

“Shameless and selfish. Is this how the main family does things?”

“Hmph, what a funny group of people. They even say that they’re doing this for our Big Sister’s own good. They’re really hypocritical and selfish. It’s disgusting to look at them!”

The sisters vented all their anger without caring about the consequences. They were completely furious and lost their rationality.
