Ultimately, Ye Shilong flipped the table and then gave Ye Tong a severe beating!
Wails echoed throughout the entire villa, but Zheng Cai never ca down.
This made Ye Tong fully realize what she truly ant to this family.
She was their daughter, sure, but in the face of various interests, she was nothing.
Exhausted from the beating, Ye Shilong eventually let her go.
After he left, Zheng Cai and Zheng Siyu ca down from upstairs.
Ye Tong never knew that in her mother’s heart, she couldn’t even compare to Zheng Siyu.
She used to think that if she could just get rid of Yuning, the whole Ye Family would be hers alone, with no one left to compete with her.
But she was wrong!
If Zheng Siyu really got together with Xiao Linye, then what status would she have in this family?
Zheng Cai looked at Ye Tong, who was beaten so badly that not a single part of her body was unhard, and felt a sharp pain in her heart.
She instinctively wanted to step forward, but Zheng Siyu grasped her arm. "Auntie," Zheng Siyu said softly.
Zheng Siyu’s gentle call made Zheng Cai instantly snap back to reality.
The eyes that had been filled with heartache for Ye Tong now turned cold and indifferent. She straightened her back and said, "Do you realize your mistake now?"
"Mom, you...!"
Ye Tong looked incredulously at Zheng Cai.
She couldn’t believe that even in this state, her mother could still say such things.
How cold could her heart be?
Zheng Cai said, "Rember, the Ye Family’s interests co first! It’s a good thing Siyu didn’t deliver the items to the Xiao Family today. Do you understand what would have happened if she had?"
With Yuning’s situation uncertain, the Xiao Family was their only remaining option.
Did she want them to lose the Xiao Family too?
Thinking of this, Zheng Cai grew angry, and any lingering sympathy in her eyes for Ye Tong completely dissipated.
Ye Tong said nothing.
She had co to understand clearly.
In this family, if one had no value to offer, they were ultimately nothing.
Her determination to win Xiao Linye’s heart solidified.
Zheng Siyu’s triumphant gaze made Ye Tong even more aware of how crucial this situation was for her.
Zheng Cai didn’t want to look at her anymore and said indifferently, "I’ve called a doctor to treat your wounds. Go back to your room."
With that, she turned and walked outside.
Zheng Cai didn’t even tend to her wounds. Ye Tong never imagined that in such a short ti, her standing in this family could plumt so drastically.
Zheng Cai left, but Zheng Siyu stayed!
She walked towards Ye Tong, her lips curling into a smile as she said, "Sister, do you now understand the rules of this house?"
Ye Tong looked up, glaring fiercely at her!
That gaze looked as though she wanted to tear Zheng Siyu to shreds.
Zheng Siyu didn’t mind.
She added casually, "It’s okay. Life in this family is completely different from what you’re used to. If you don’t understand, I’ll slowly teach you!"
She delivered the last sentence with heavy emphasis and a hidden, malicious intent. Ye Tong understood perfectly well that Zheng Siyu ant her no good.
Zheng Siyu then hurried after Zheng Cai.
Zheng Cai had an appointnt with a lady, and Zheng Siyu wanted to accompany her.
Now that Ye Tong had returned, she couldn’t afford to miss any opportunity to go out with Zheng Cai.
After all, her own parents were incompetent; her future was almost entirely dependent on the Ye Family.
Seeing Zheng Siyu co out, Zheng Cai told her to hurry up and get in the car.
「Inside the car.」
Zheng Cai sighed. "The way your sister is now, it really worries ."
Zheng Siyu replied, "I’ll teach her properly, Auntie. Don’t worry."
Zheng Cai said, "You also wanted to teach her today. But look at her state; she must have been corrupted by those people from her past."
When it ca to Ye Tong’s forr upbringing, Zheng Cai, who used to feel heartbroken discussing it, now only felt imnse annoyance.
Before Zheng Siyu could respond, Zheng Cai continued, "Also, you should visit your sister Yuning more often."
As for Yuning, Zheng Siyu wasn’t particularly fond of her. However, back when they were all in the Ye Family, Yuning boarded at school, so the two of them hadn’t interacted much.
But now that Ye Tong, the biological daughter, had returned and posed a threat to her, Zheng Siyu knew exactly which side she should favor.
She nodded obediently. "Yes, Auntie, I understand."
"You’re still the obedient one," Zheng Cai said, her mood lightening sowhat.
Seeing Zheng Siyu’s agreent made Zheng Cai feel a bit more relieved.
Finally, there was soone who brought her so peace of mind.
Yuning was still in great pain.
She had no idea about the major events unfolding at the Ye Family, nor that Zheng Siyu was planning to throw herself at Xiao Linye.
She was also unaware that Xiao Linye had caught Ye Tong’s eye.
For this reason, those two were now secretly competing.
Xiao Linye had returned from Nanjia Peak Mountain quickly, obviously worried about Yuning’s injuries.
"You’re back so soon?" Yuning looked at him and mumbled.
She had been so exhausted last night that after Xiao Linye left, she had fallen into a deep sleep.
