Chapter 617: 620: Atonement, Not a Gift

“I’m coming over right now.” Hanging up the phone, Ye Xinglan’s expression was full of despair.

Disregarding his still throbbing wound, he changed his clothes and went downstairs.

Living on the third floor, he walked downstairs when Ye Xingli came out of their parents’ room on the second floor. Seeing him hurrying down, he complained, “Aren’t you supposed to rest in bed? I can handle the household affairs, why are you coming out again?”

“Beibei and Taotao had a conflict,” said Ye Xinglan, “at the South Hill Manor, I’m going to check it out.”

“It must be Ye Tao bullying Beibei again!” Ye Xingli exploded at once, catching up to him in a few strides, “I’m going too!”

The two got into the car and rushed to South Hill Manor.

When they arrived, Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei were sitting by a window in the hall, chatting while eating.

Gu Junzhu had a lazy smile, and Ye Xingbei also seemed relaxed, not showing any signs that they had just had a conflict.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The manager, knowing Ye Xinglan was coming, had already been waiting at the manor’s entrance.

Seeing Ye Xinglan’s car drive into the manor, he hurriedly ran after it.

He helped open the car as soon as it stopped.

Ye Xinglan got out of the car, and the manager immediately began to apologize in terror, “Young master, it’s my fault. Seeing that Miss Beibei only had two people, I thought it was a waste for them to use a room for ten. Just as Miss Taotao came to dine with her friends and there were no VIP rooms available, I carelessly mentioned that Miss Beibei had reserved a room for ten people and asked Miss Taotao if she wanted to share a room with Miss Beibei. Then, Miss Taotao and Miss Beibei started arguing because of this…”

The manager was now full of regret.

If he had known better, he definitely wouldn’t have said that.

If there were no VIP rooms, they still had luxury rooms. Why didn’t he just let Ye Tao and her friends use the luxury rooms?

He had been foolish to say what he did, which resulted in the current situation.

“You think it’s wasteful for two people to use a room for ten?” Ye Xingli kicked him, “Since when have you had the right to criticize Beibei’s affairs? Even if she wants to rent the whole manor, I’d be willing to oblige. When is it your turn to make decisions?”

“Yes, yes, yes!” The manager was miserable and continually wiping sweat, “Today’s trouble is all my fault for not thinking properly.”

“It’s not that you didn’t think carefully, it’s that you look down on me.”

While they were talking, they had already walked near Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei.

Hearing the manager’s words, Ye Xingbei casually responded, “You think that whatever is mine should be given to Ye Tao as a matter of course. You think so, and Ye Tao thinks so too.”

Ye Xingbei looked up, his gaze falling on Ye Xinglan, “Brother Lan, I asked you to come today to clarify with Miss Taotao and you. I don’t owe the Ye Family anything. Please make that clear to your other siblings as well, from now on, don’t mention trivial matters in front of me. Every time I hear it, I’ll hit back. Don’t say that I don’t give face to the Ye Family!”

Ye Xinglan’s face was pale, his voice hoarse, “It’s my fault, Beibei, it’s all my fault, I apologize to you.”

He took a card out of his pocket and handed it to Ye Xingbei, “This is the supreme membership card of the Ye Group. From now on, you can enjoy the highest privileges in any Ye Group enterprise globally; just show this card.”

Ye Xingbei shook his head, “I don’t want it.”

Ye Xingli grabbed the card from Ye Xinglan and stuffed it into Ye Xingbei’s hand, “Take what you’re given. It’s wasteful to refuse it, why wouldn’t you want it?”

Looking at Ye Xingli’s face, which read “you’re an idiot if you don’t take advantage when you can”, Ye Xingbei could not help but smile wryly.

“I’ll keep it for you,” Gu Junzhu took the card from Ye Xingbei and casually flicked it to Xueno, “This is not a gift, it’s an apology. You don’t need to feel embarrassed.”

Ye Xinglan chuckled bitterly, “Right, it’s an apology, not a gift.”

“Eldest cousin brother,” Ye Tao seemingly appeared out of nowhere behind them. With burning eyes, she retracted her attention from the supreme card in Xueno’s hand, looked at Ye Xinglan, and bashfully said, “Eldest cousin brother, I also want a card like that, can I?”
