Sweet Wife in My Arms

Chapter 333: Distance Makes The Heart Grow Fonder

“You’re saying I am very handsome, aren’t you?” Ye Xinyu pinched the little cat’s ear. “I knew you would have good taste, this face of mine looks so good. It is a pity my family wouldn’t let me be a star, if not, I would have been famous a long time ago.”

“Meow…”

Idiot.

“I knew you were a cat who recognizes something good when it sees one.”

“Meow…”

Stupid human.

“Since you have such good taste, let me give you a kiss. I will give my first kiss to you. But, I need to see if you’re a male or female cat. If you’re a male then it is fine, if you’re a female, I can sacrifice a little.”

“Meow…”

Gangster, pervert. No matter what the cat called him, shouted and struggled, his hind legs were pried open. The cat looked at him with a set of desperate eyes but Ye Xinyu laughed at him with a predator-like face.

“Okay, I know, you are a female. Okay, I will give my first kiss to you. Really.” With that, he puckered up his sausage-like lips and went forward to give the cat a wet kiss.

“Meow…” All of the fur on the cat stood up as he lunged his paw forward onto the back of Ye Xinyu’s hand, giving it a few good scratches.

This was the first time he was this shocked.

Damn it, even the cat is bullying him

“Why did you bully it?” Ye Shuyun came to apply medicine for Ye Xinyu. She was a little speechless at the scratch marks on his hand. The swelling on his face hadn’t even gone down and there were more wounds at the back of his palm. Did this boy offend the gods or something? Why was he in such a bad state?

“When did I bully it?” Ye Xinyu wanted to cry this time. It was fine that he was beaten up by someone else but even the cat wanted to scratch him. Was he not pitiful?

“Auntie, should I get a rabies jab? Will I get rabies? Didn’t the news say that if one is bitten by a dog, one could die even with a rabies vaccination. Will I die?”

Ye Shuyun looked at the ceiling and rolled her eyes.

“You were scratched by a cat. Moreover, this cat has been vaccinated, you will not get any rabies. Relax.”

As she said this, she pinched his face out of habit. However, she forgot that he no longer had that pretty face of his. His face had swell to that of a pig.

With a yelp, Ye Xinyu shouted again as the meat on his wounded face trembled.

Who had he offended, really who did he offend?

Not long later, Ye Xinyu laid sprawled on the sofa. If his eyeballs weren’t moving and he wasn’t breathing, one might really think that he was dead.

Lu Yi walked over and sat down. He crossed his legs and stared simply at him.

Ye Xinyu sat upright and placed his hand on his knees. He had a sturdy posture and a straight back and looked almost like a soldier. If one overlooked his swollen face that is.

Lu yi placed the cup to his lips and took a drink.

“Brother can I ask, how did you take out $2 billion like this?”

Ye Xinyu almost couldn’t believe it when he heard that the $2 billion was from his elder cousin. His respect for Lu Yi was like the flowing river, never ending.

“I borrowed it.”

Lu Yi said calmly.

Ye Xinyu was speechless

“Then how did you borrow it?”

“Just like this.”

“What about interest?” Ye Xinyu asked again. “It must be a lot right?”

‘No interest.” Lu Yi took another sip of water. Perhaps no one might believe this when he said it. $800 million from the $2 billion was his but the other 41.2 billion was Yan Huan’s. It was the money that she had earned little by little in the past few years.

He hadn’t even opened his mouth but Yan Huan had already transferred the money over. The Ye family had only managed to overcome this crisis with this money. That was how they saved the Ye family and Ye Jianguo.

His grandpa had asked him to remember this favor from Yan Huan. Lu Yi had remembered it too.

Ye Xinyu pouted, looking incredibly pitiful.

He was thinking if he actually went to borrow money, he might only be able to raise a few hundred million dollars. Counting here and there, perhaps not even $10 million. Hence as compared to Lu Yi, he was really useless.

Lu Yi extended his arm and patted him on the shoulder.

“Connections are formed over the years. You are the Ye family’s future and everything that the Ye family has now, you must hold onto it. It is fine if you’re beaten now, we won’t kill you. But if you were to end up in some other people’s hands in the future, you can only wait to die.”

Ye Xinyu…

Was full of tears.

“Brother Lu Yi, how can you say that about your younger cousin?”

Even though Lu Yi’s words were hurtful to one’s pride, it was the truth. If it were other people, they would definitely crush Ye Xinyu. Ye Xinyu was very obviously a piece of tender meat and didn’t have much fight in him. He didn’t have much to show for himself these few years and if this carried on, how could the Ye family be passed to him? He was the Ye family’s only child and was a boy. If he was a girl, no one would be this demanding of him. But who asked him to be a male and to take on the Ye name?

He could have been thinking too much and was distracted and didn’t realize he was using too much strength.

Ow….

Ye Xinyu screamed.

Lu Yi finally moved his hand away as he stared calmly at his younger cousin who had broken out into cold sweat all over his swollen face. He was covering his collarbone.

“Relax, the bone didn’t break.”

Lu Yi stood up and walked over to Little Bean. He bent over to pick the cat up.

“Meow…”

Master lets quickly leave, far away from that gangster.

Lu Yi walked away in big strides as he left Ye Xinyu pressing his face.

Tsk, pain. It hurt everywhere. His flesh hurt; his skin hurt. Why was he so pitiful? Could it be that he was beaten, strangled and scratched by others when he was born too?

Lu Yi closed the door and placed Little Bean on the floor. However, it jumped up his leg and wouldn’t let go at all.

Lu Yi gently tapped its head. He had no idea how she was doing, she should be back by now.

At this moment, Yan Huan was still performing around the country. With this round of performances, her popularity had grown again but it was tough on her to travel around the country like this. However, she had shown off her face sufficiently in front of others.

She became famous last year.

Her popularity exploded this year.

What would happen to her next year, she couldn’t wait to see.

This was their last stop, they could return home tomorrow.

She took out her phone; she really wanted to call that man. But after thinking for a while, she decided not to. It was already this long, and she wanted to let the heart grow fonder with distance.
