Chapter 79: Chapter 79 I Won’t Touch Wanwan’s Things

"I’ll adopt it if I like it," Ye Wanwan said perfunctorily.

Bai Xiuzhu made a face in disgust, "Those cats and dogs are filthy, full of germs, and they shed hair everywhere, making a mess!"

"Taozhi has been checked and there’s no problem at all. And as for shedding, the maids will clean it up."

Although Bai Xiuzhu was her elder, Ye Wanwan couldn’t help but want to retort. She was already being quite diplomatic; if she said what was really on her mind, she would’ve asked, "What’s that got to do with you?"

But Bai Xiuzhu seemed oblivious to the mood of those around her, continuing with a heavy heart, "That may be so, but it’s still not good, especially once you have children it will be even more inconvenient."

"What if you get scratched by accident? I’ve heard you can die from rabies!"

"Ah, Shen Yi, it’s the twenty-seventh today, right?" Bai Xiuzhu suddenly changed the subject to Shen Yi.

Shen Yi glanced at Bai Xiuzhu and then nodded, his tone indifferent, "Hmm."

"Yo, when do you young couple plan on having kids?" Bai Xiuzhu asked further.

Before anyone could respond, Bai Xiuzhu continued on her own, "Your parents have only you as a son, and they’re counting on you to carry on the family line."

"Plus, Jinghong is such a large company; there has to be someone to take over, right? It would be so worrisome to leave it in other people’s hands!"

Bai Xiuzhu spoke with an air of concern for their welfare, yet the underlying message was crystal clear.

You must have a son!

Shen Yi saw his mother-in-law’s expression getting uglier by the moment.

He looked at Bai Xiuzhu once again, his gaze heavy as he said, "Great Aunt, are you insinuating that I’m coveting my in-laws’ property?"

Bai Xiuzhu’s face stiffened; that was obviously not what she meant.

The living room fell silent once again, the atmosphere thick with awkwardness.

Ye Shiying was so angry her lungs hurt. Does her mother even have a brain?

But the mood was so bad right now that Ye Shiying had no choice but to smooth things over.

"My mom didn’t mean that." Ye Shiying forced a smile that looked more like a grimace, "She..."

"You don’t have to worry; I won’t touch Wanwan’s things," Shen Yi interrupted Ye Shiying, pausing for a few seconds before continuing, "I won’t touch it, and neither will anyone else."

His demeanor was calm, giving away no emotion, but his words were far from polite.

"When father steps down, there will be many shareholders in the company, and there are always people who can get things done. Wanwan just taking dividends every year will be enough."

"Of course, if Wanwan doesn’t want to be involved, she can just sell her shares."

"How can that be!" Bai Xiuzhu suddenly raised her voice, her expression turning fierce, "That’s the Ye Family’s company; how can it be sold!"

"Mom!" Ye Shiying shot to her feet, glaring at the foolish woman beside her, suppressing the rage in her heart, "What nonsense are you talking!"

Bai Xiuzhu, yelled at, realized she had spoken out of turn, but the words were already out, beyond recall.

"It is the Ye Family, that’s correct, but this Ye Family belongs to me, Ye Zhenhua!"

A voice suddenly interjected, and everyone turned their heads to see Ye Zhenhua standing at the top of the stairs, looking down, with Ye Zhenlin’s stern face behind him.

Watching the expressions of her husband, who looked as if he wanted to eat her alive, Bai Xiuzhu realized the utter foolishness of her actions today.
