Chapter 386: Chapter 386 The Princess Gracefully Arrives_1
Ye Yiyi’s eyes lit up, revealing a sinister smile, "You’re right. Is it that easy to be Ye Yiyi’s father? Let him die a horrible death."
The siblings conspired for a while before confidently coming out.
Ye Yiyi held up her head and said to Ye Lu, with a patronizing tone, "Since everyone here begs me to go, I will reluctantly visit the Gu Family."
Ye Lu was baffled. It was as if Ye Yiyi spoke as if she was a queen on a tour, with others begging her to go.
However, she was very suspicious of this little girl, "Yiyi, have you changed your mind so quickly? You’re not scheming something naughty, are you?"
This girl was always a troublemaker, full of wicked ideas; she was skeptical that she would behave herself.
"Mommy, what kind of talk is this? It makes me sound like such a villain. I have figured it out. You like him, and I can’t do anything about it. If he treats me well and sees me as his real daughter, then I will accept him."
For Ye Lu, this was a breath of relief. It was good for her dear child to think this way; she did not want her children to have a bad relationship with Gu Yan. After all, her feelings for both them and Gu Yan were equally loving.
"Then you promise mommy not to cause trouble after you go there, and to listen obediently."
"Mhm." Ye Yiyi nodded vigorously with a grin. But she was always one to break her promises.
Ye Lu smiled in relief. She stroked Ye Yuan’s head, "Take good care of your sister. Mommy knows Yuanyuan is the most sensible."
Ye Yuan also nodded, thinking to himself that he and his sister, one would be good cop, and the other bad. He would simply pretend to be the good baby.
After packing their things and about to leave, they turned off the TV that was casually switched on.
Suddenly, they saw the news anchor on the TV seriously broadcasting a news story. The news featured Old Sir Shang’s portrait.
Ye Lu was surprised. Why was Old Sir Shang on the news? She then saw the headline and her pupils dilated in disbelief.
The TV showed the Shang Family holding a memorial service for Old Sir Shang.
"Old Sir Shang passed away?" She collapsed in front of the TV in shock, her heart almost stopping.
How could this happen? The kind old man who treated her so well, helped her regain custody of her children, and freed her from the cruel grasp of Ye Wanli, had passed away.
How did this happen? She couldn’t believe it, the last time she saw him turned out to be their final meeting.
Ye Lu was tremendously grieved. Although she knew Old Sir Shang was critically ill and his passing was inevitable, it was still a shock and hard to bear.
"Babies, wait here at home, mommy has to go take care of something," said Ye Lu, leaving the two of them and changing quickly into a black outfit. She hurried out the door, heading to Old Sir Shang’s memorial service.
She owed Old Sir Shang so much. Naturally, she had to mourn and bid him a proper farewell now that he was gone.
The memorial was crowded. After all, Old Sir Shang, the head of the Shang Group, had great prestige and was immensely liked; therefore, many people came to mourn him.
Ye Lu arrived at the entrance but was stopped.
"You cannot enter," said a frosty welcome staff.
Ye Lu was taken aback. Being stopped at the door as strange looks surrounded her was very embarrassing. Her face turned pale. But she couldn’t make a scene at such a solemn place and had to swallow her anger.
"I’m an old friend of the deceased. It’s my duty to attend his memorial," she said.
"Oh, I thought who it was," came a sarcastically cold female voice from inside. A woman in black emerged from the entrance - it was Yuan Jiayin.
