Chapter 483: Chapter 483: Stay Here Tonight
In terms of being infuriating, Helan Tianyou indeed has so talent.
“Helan Tianyou, stop trying to scare here. I’m not buying your act!”
“Tsk tsk tsk, so impolite. You’re not even calling brother, considering I’m older than you.”
When Helan Lingshuang called him by his full na, he found it quite pleasant to hear, but when it ca from Helan Yaoyue, it was unpleasant, and he felt like snapping at her a bit.
“…”
Helan Yaoyue was a little princess pampered at ho; when had she ever suffered such grievances?
It was bad enough being slighted by Helan Lingshuang, but now to be provoked by this playboy—it was unbearable!
“Helan Tianyou, your mother’s leg was broken by that bitch Helan Lingshuang, and yet you have the mind to waste ti with here? Just how big is your heart?”
She didn’t believe he didn’t hate Helan Lingshuang and wouldn’t seek revenge on her.
They were all the sa, just as bad as each other.
“You’re not just waiting to reap the spoils, watching from the sidelines, are you?”
Helan Yaoyue suddenly realized, “I’m telling you, that’s not going to happen!”
Helan Tianyou looked at her with a nonchalant expression. “I’m not as petty as you, causing trouble here. My mom’s leg was indeed broken by Shuangshuang’s arrangent, but the premise was my mom was in the wrong first. She broke Aunt’s leg first—it’s just returning the favor, isn’t it now?”
“So, you see, I’m not like you. Don’t lump in with you—bad luck.”
“Helan Tianyou, you…”
“What ‘you’? Call Brother Tianyou. No respect at all. Acting up, are you?”
“You…”
Helan Yaoyue was so angry her hands were trembling.
“I told you to stop with the ‘you you you.’ Call brother. What, don’t you understand human language, or are you hard of hearing at such a young age?”
“Aah!” Helan Yaoyue was so furious she almost exploded. “Helan Tianyou, get lost!”
“Why should I leave? It’s not your territory, and your na isn’t on it.” Helan Tianyou said with a cheeky grin, hands in his pockets. “Besides, brothers don’t roll. Why don’t you give a demonstration, Sister Yue?”
“…”
At that mont, Helan Tianyu’s n arrived.
“Young Master Tianyou.”
The man greeted Helan Tianyou first, then looked at Helan Yaoyue.
“Miss Yue, the Second Young Master asked to take you to see him.”
Helan Yaoyue panicked slightly when she heard it was Helan Tianyu who sent him.
“How did my brother know I was here?”
After asking this, she looked at Helan Tianyou.
“Don’t look at like that. I don’t have a habit of tattling.”
“…”
Without seeing Helan Lingshuang, Helan Yaoyue had no intention of leaving, but…
In the end, she left with Helan Tianyu’s people.
As she was leaving, she glared fiercely at Helan Tianyou.
“Crazy! Big eyes don’t an anything, just like fish eyes!” Helan Tianyou mocked.
Once Helan Yaoyue was gone, he headed straight for Ella’s office.
He only dared to push the door open after hearing a voice from inside in response to his knock.
“Shuangshuang, busy?”
He headed towards Ella, who was sitting at the office desk.
Ella didn’t even look up, “If you have sothing to say, say it.”
He pulled out a chair, sat across from her, and said with a smile, “Helan Yaoyue left; her brother’s people took her.”
Ella responded with a nonchalant “oh.”
Helan Tianyou continued, “I just avenged you, left her speechless, almost blew her top in anger.”
“Should I thank you then?”
Ella put down her pen and looked at him.
Helan Tianyou waved his hand, “No need. I’m not here to take credit; I have sothing serious to discuss.”
Ella leaned back, “What’s the serious thing? Speak, I’m listening.”
“Aren’t you competing with the Second Young Master for the DK partnership project?” He shifted his chair closer. “I happen to know a project director at DK headquarters. I can connect you; how about that?”
Ella thought he had so explosive news but said, “No need.”
“Why not? Do you really know so high-ranking person in DK?”
He asked because of sothing the old master said the other day at the old house, which had struck him as odd.
And over these few days, this girl hadn’t made a move at all, as if not worried that the Second Young Master might snatch the DK partnership first.
Ella gave him a deep look.
Helan Tianyou imdiately raised his hand, held up three fingers, and swore, “Rest assured, I’m reliable. If I leak a single word, may thunder strike , may I choke on water, or get hit by soone when I step outside…”
Ella frowned and interrupted him, “Enough, enough, stop cursing yourself in front of .”
He shut up imdiately, “Oh.”
It was clear that when he was arguing with Helan Yaoyue outside, he was a completely different person.
He looked at her curiously, “So, do you really know soone at DK? Or does that Ye boy know soone?”
“This issue doesn’t really concern you. The less you know, the better. Don’t go getting yourself involved by accident,” Ella kindly warned him.
Hearing this, Helan Tianyou knew she must have sothing in mind to be so calm.
That reassured him.
“Alright, I’ll listen to you,” he agreed readily.
Ella: … “I only have one brother, don’t try to cozy up here.”
“Ah, a cousin is also a brother. We share blood ties, after all. Don’t quarrel over this. Until Mr. Ze wakes up, I can take on this role.”
“…”
On the DK side, Ella had already talked with Su He.
So she wasn’t anxious.
Having connections makes things easier and more efficient.
Hospital.
“Helan Yaoyue, have I been too lenient with you lately?”
In the hospital room, the man’s face was extrely grim.
Faced with her own brother’s scolding, Helan Yaoyue felt extrely wronged.
You should know, Helan Tianyu used such a harsh tone towards her for the first ti.
Her eyes reddened with grievance instantly.
“Brother, I didn’t do anything. I just…”
Helan Tianyu suddenly felt a headache.
He harshly ordered, “Shut up, swallow your tears!”
Helan Yaoyue flinched at his shout, tightly pursed her lower lip, and didn’t dare to make a sound.
“Helan Yaoyue, I think you’ve been playing too wildly lately, leaving your brains outside, haven’t you?”
Helan Tianyu was nearly driven insane by her.
“I…”
“With a brain like yours, do you still hope to compete with Helan Lingshuang for favor? Can you compete? She’s the group’s Deputy CEO now. What are you? You’re just a vase who only knows how to buy clothes, attend ridiculous shows, and spend money. Do you think the old master will look favorably upon you?”
Helan Yaoyue’s delicate face crumpled into a frown.
Helan Tianyu was never one to hold back when criticizing soone.
Listening to her brother’s harsh words, her hatred for Helan Lingshuang grew even stronger.
“Brother, I know I was wrong. I… I was just upset that she actually had soone hit you.”
Helan Tianyu slightly frowned, sharply looking at her, “Who told you she had hit?”
“Sister Fei said you were injured. I guessed it myself. We’ve never had a good relationship with the main branch, and now that Helan Lingshuang is back fighting for the heir position with you, she surely hopes for trouble the most. Who else could it be? Besides, as soon as she returned, you were injured. How can that be a coincidence?”
“You’ve been with Helan Yaofei?” He asked.
Helan Yaoyue: “Yes, Sister Fei invited to this show.”
Helan Tianyu maintained a serious face, sternly warning her, “In the future, stay far away from those people in the third branch!”
“Why? Sister Fei is very nice. She hasn’t done anything…”
Helan Tianyu fixed a sharp gaze on her, “Are my words useless now?”
Helan Yaoyue was ultimately fearful of her brother’s anger.
Scarefully, she swallowed and said, “Oh, I understand.”
“Alright, go back. Just don’t provoke Ling Shuang that woman for a while.”
Helan Yaoyue, though reluctant, had no choice but to comply.
But before leaving, she still said, “What if she cos to provoke ? I can’t just let her bully without fighting back, can I?”
However, Helan Tianyu replied flatly, “She doesn’t have as many issues as you do, nor is she as free as you! Just watch your own mouth, or else you’ll regret it when you’re at a loss with no ti to cry.”
Helan Yaoyue: “…”
After she left the hospital room, Helan Tianyu turned to Zhuo Xiao, “Send soone to keep an eye on her, don’t let her stir up trouble at this critical mont.”
The assistant nodded, “Understood, Second Young Master.”
Helan Yaoyue and Helan Lingshuang are different.
The forr is just a spoiled rich girl who spends money, while the latter is a capable and strategic heiress.
Moreover, Helan Lingshuang is currently the old man’s designated heir, although both bear the Helan surna, their minds are not shared.
That day when Helan Yaoyue was sold out by her, she probably wouldn’t even realize she’d been counting money for soone else!
“Did you get to the bottom of the relationship between Ye Jiuqing and Helan Lingshuang?”
“Reporting to Second Young Master, according to what they say, there’s no special relationship between the two, maybe just closer than ordinary friends.”
Helan Tianyu frowned, “Then why does the old man frequently et with him?”
The assistant replied, “We’re not sure yet, there’s no information leaking from the old man’s side at all. The people we’ve planted in the old house couldn’t find any useful information, only that every ti he enters and exits with Miss Lingshuang.”
Helan Tianyu didn’t believe there was no relationship between these two.
Zhuo Xiao boldly speculated, “Second Young Master, could it be that the old man wants to cooperate with the Ye family? Like a marriage alliance, after all, Miss Lingshuang isn’t married yet, it’s not impossible.”
This statent reminded him.
If the old man intends to find a family of equal status for Helan Lingshuang, it’s not impossible.
But, the Ye family’s field of involvent isn’t in the financial industry.
This equality in status is likely to be the old man finding Helan Lingshuang a backing.
After all, the field Ye Jiuqing is involved in indeed makes people wary of him.
So, if the main branch’s people receive support from Ye Jiuqing, then they…
No, this must never happen.
“Zhuo Xiao, arrange a eting with Ye Jiuqing for . I want to et him.”
“Okay.”
…
That afternoon.
Ye Jiuqing happened to arrive at HL Group’s underground parking garage.
Ah Gui turned to him and said, “Young Master Jiuqing, Helan Tianyu sent soone to the Ye Residence, saying he wants to et you.”
Ye Jiuqing rolled up his sleeves and said four words, “Not eting, no ti.”
Ah Gui: “Okay.”
Helan Tianyu’s people truthfully conveyed these four words.
“…”
“Second Young Master, Ye Jiuqing is really not giving you any face, rejecting you so straightforwardly!”
“If he didn’t reject, he wouldn’t be Ye Jiuqing.”
Helan Tianyu pondered for a mont and then said, “Keep trying to arrange a eting with him, I don’t care what thod you use.”
“Second Young Master, even if he’s willing to et us, what if he still sides with Miss Lingshuang? What would we do then? And it might easily alert them.”
Helan Tianyu had indeed considered this.
But, every man has ambitions, as long as his offer is big enough, he’s not afraid the other won’t agree.
——
“What did you say?”
“Since he wants to et you, why not go? You could go undercover, for instance.”
Ella had just gotten into the car when Ye Jiuqing told her about Helan Tianyu wanting to et him.
At this ti, Helan Tianyu wanting to et Ye Jiuqing surely ant he found out sothing and wanted to win him over.
Ye Jiuqing said leisurely, “Don’t worry, he’ll co looking for a second ti. Agreeing to et him right away isn’t my style.”
Ella: “…”
Alright, it seems she was worrying for nothing.
This scheming guy wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity.
He even said she was cunning, his mind was even more intricate than hers.
“Did President Ling have any instructions?”
Ye Jiuqing looked at her, smiled slightly, and said,
“I wouldn’t dare to call them instructions.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t charge you, no strings attached, completely free.”
Ella raised her elegant eyebrows, her face full of disbelief, “You’re being so kind?”
“Do I have such a bad reputation with you?”
“Ha…” Ella laughed, “What do you think?”
Unconsciously, Ye Jiuqing’s gaze turned more gentle, even with a hint of affection.
“Then should I do more good deeds to improve my image in the future?”
When Ella t his gaze, her heart skipped a beat.
She raised her hand to touch her ear and shifted her gaze away.
“Up to you, as long as you don’t cause trouble.”
Ye Jiuqing saw how uncomfortable she looked and didn’t say anything more, just smiled.
These days, he almost ca to pick her up from work every day.
Each ti, he would stay at her place for dinner before leaving.
But today, even though it was late, he showed no intention of leaving.
“It’s getting late, aren’t you going?” Ella bluntly told him to leave.
“I’m not leaving tonight, I’ll stay here.”
For a mont, ti seed to stand still.
“What did you say?”
She didn’t know this yet, at noon, Ye Jiuqing had already moved his luggage to the Helan household.
He was planning to stay here temporarily for a while.
Ye Jiuqing stared at her with a lazy expression and slowly said, “I’ll be staying here for a while, and both Dad and Mom know about it, they were the ones who asked to move in.”
He purposely ntioned Mr. and Mrs. Helan because, even if she was unwilling, she wouldn’t have much to say about it.
“Impossible!”
Ella flatly denied what he said.
How could her parents agree to let him move in?
Ye Jiuqing wasn’t flustered at all, “If you don’t believe , you can call and ask.”
He even glanced at the ti on purpose.
“At this hour, Dad and Mom should still be awake.”
Because Helan Xunzheng had to stay in the hospital to take care of Ling Xiyuan, he was also staying at the hospital.
Ella actually took out her phone and called Ling Xiyuan.
But it was her father who answered.
“Hello, Shuangshuang, is sothing wrong so late at night?” Helan Xunzheng asked.
Ella said, “Dad, nothing’s wrong, I just wanted to ask why is he moving in with us?”
Helan Xunzheng nearly didn’t understand what she was asking, but he quickly caught on.
“Oh, you’re talking about Xiao Ye, right? We’re all family, it doesn’t matter where we live. You won’t move into the Ye residence with him, so he can only co to our place. You two are married, isn’t living together normal? It’s also your mom’s idea, she suggested it. Now that we’re not ho, we feel uneasy with you alone at ho, having soone with you makes us feel better.”
“…”
Ella felt her dad was seriously making up an official-sounding story.
What did he an by they weren’t at ease with her alone at ho?
It’s not like this was the first ti she’d stayed ho alone, and besides, she wasn’t a kid, they still had the housekeeper and servants around.
“No, Dad, I…”
Before she could finish, Helan Xunzheng interrupted her.
“I can’t talk for long, your mom needs to use the bathroom, I have to carry her.”
With that, he hung up.
“Hey, wait, Dad…”
Ye Jiuqing watched her, his handso features displaying a hint of a smile.
He spread his hands, “See, I’m not deliberately moving in. It’s because your parents are worried about you and want to accompany you.”
In his bright blue eyes, Ella saw the words “smugness.”
