Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 562: Do You Have No Shame?

"I don’t care if others think I’m immature, but if this makes Ding Ruoyi also think I’m immature and affects her impression of you, feeling that it’s unnecessary for you to attend our class reunion, then it’s not worth it, right?" Yu Xinman explained to Ye Ning.

Ye Ning was originally quite unhappy, feeling that Yu Xinman was just brushing her off.

If they are back, why not take her along?

But after hearing Yu Xinman’s explanation, although reasonable, Ye Ning felt even more displeased.

What does Yu Xinman’s explanation mean?

Does she think Ye Ning is petty?

Or does she think she’s particularly immature?

Does she really need Yu Xinman to teach her about social graces?

Ye Ning was angry inside but didn’t show it on her face.

After all, she still needed to use Yu Xinman to meet Ding Ruoyi.

***

B City, hotel.

Ye Fei stood at the door of Ye Dezhang and Xu Huizhen’s room.

After standing still, before ringing the doorbell, she took a deep breath and adjusted her expression.

The confident and slightly distant expression was put away.

Replaced with a timid and difficult look, only then did she press the doorbell.

Through the door, the sound of the doorbell could still be heard inside.

Not long after, footsteps could be heard inside.

Soon, the door was opened.

Ye Fei hadn’t even seen who it was.

Suddenly, a slap was swung at her.

Not having met for five years, Ye Fei underestimated how shameless Xu Huizhen had become over these years.

But fortunately, Ye Fei reacted quickly; as the shadow of the hand approached, Ye Fei didn’t have time to think, she quickly dodged sideways.

Although she came this time to deceive Ye Dezhang and Xu Huizhen.

To be convincing, but she didn’t plan to actually endure Xu Huizhen’s slap.

It’s just that Xu Huizhen’s action was really too fast.

Though Ye Fei avoided the slap landing on her face, she couldn’t completely dodge it.

Xu Huizhen’s slap landed on Ye Fei’s shoulder instead.

As a result, Ye Fei felt a sharp pain in her shoulder.

Xu Huizhen really put in a lot of force with that slap.

If it had landed on her face, Ye Fei suspected her teeth might have gotten knocked out.

However, Xu Huizhen didn’t fare well either.

Ye Fei was slim, with thin shoulders and hardly any flesh.

Her shoulders were especially pretty with a sharp angle.

When Xu Huizhen’s palm hit down, though it’s exaggerated to say it was like hitting a spike, the sharp angle did cause her to cry out in pain.

Xu Huizhen angrily said, "Why did you dodge!"

"Alright, alright." Ye Dezhang quickly pulled Xu Huizhen back, "What are you doing? Why hit the child as soon as you see her? Won’t even let her explain?"

"She ran off without a word back then; after five years without seeing her, she left us worried; why shouldn’t I hit her? Not hitting her is unworthy of my five years of worry!" Xu Huizhen said shrilly.

"Alright, do you really need to hit her before you can talk properly?" Ye Dezhang pushed Xu Huizhen inside, "Besides, aren’t you afraid people can hear us arguing loudly in the hotel corridor?"

Ye Fei followed inside, rubbing her shoulder while pretending to gaze around the room in awe.

As if she had never seen such luxury before.

Xu Huizhen sneered with disdain and said, "You’ve been in B City all these years, don’t look so provincial like you’ve never seen the world!"

Ye Fei shrank back her neck but couldn’t help but sneak a peek around.

Then her face lit up with surprise, "Dad, Mom, you’re staying in such a good hotel in B City? This hotel must be expensive, right?"

Thinking about Xu Huizhen’s greedy expression, Ye Fei mimicked it, "How much is it per night?"

Ye Dezhang frowned slightly; after five years, how did Ye Fei turn more and more like Xu Huizhen?

She wasn’t like this before.

They say, ’you become like those you are close with.’

But in these five years, Ye Fei hadn’t lived with Xu Huizhen.

Xu Huizhen’s face tensed, suddenly suspecting Ye Fei wanted to ask them for money.

Xu Huizhen was still thinking about asking Ye Fei for money herself; how could she give Ye Fei the chance to ask for it?

Xu Huizhen immediately said, "First, tell us how you found us."

"You left without a word back then and never kept in touch with the family. We don’t even know your contact information, so if we wanted to see you, we’d have to go watch your games. You sure are capable, knowing we’re in B City and finding us directly."

"It was Shi Jiumei who told me," Ye Fei said, "She has my contact information and told me."

Ye Fei frowned slightly and said, "I also wondered, she clearly has my contact information, why didn’t she tell you?"

"What?" Ye Dezhang exclaimed in surprise, "She has your contact information?"

"Yes," Ye Fei nodded, "Didn’t she tell you? Otherwise, how would I know you came? She was the one who told me."

"And she only told me at midnight yesterday. It was too late, so I couldn’t come then; that’s why I came over early today." Ye Fei explained with plausible detail.

Upon hearing this, Xu Huizhen suddenly slapped her thigh, "I knew it, that Shi Jiumei must have tricked us out of money!"

"Tricked you? What money did she trick you out of?" Ye Fei immediately asked.

Xu Huizhen fell silent.

She was always shrewd; how could she reveal that she was scammed?

Ye Dezhang awkwardly recounted the ticket-buying issue.

"Tickets aren’t supposed to be that expensive," Ye Fei said, "You actually spent that much. Even if official channels sold out, finding a scalper wouldn’t be this outrageous, just a bit more expensive, a hundred or two at most."

Ye Fei cried out in heartache, "Oh, what a pity, the extra money you gave her; it would have been better if you had given it to me."

"What did you say?" Xu Huizhen immediately snapped at her sharply.

Sure enough, Ye Fei did come to ask for money.

"We haven’t even asked you for money, and you’re already plotting to take ours; do you have any shame left!" Xu Huizhen’s eyes widened at hearing Ye Fei dare to plot for her money.

She raised her hand to hit Ye Fei.

How could Ye Fei let her succeed? She lifted her hand and grabbed Xu Huizhen’s wrist.

Xu Huizhen was surprised to find that Ye Fei’s strength had increased so much.

Ye Fei used to help out at the family restaurant, learning to cook from Ye Dezhang, carrying pots and utensils, so she wasn’t weak back then either.

But her strength wasn’t as it was now.

It’s all due to Ye Fei caring for Xiao Mo since he was born.

When Xiao Mo was sick and cried, he needed to be held by her.

She would hold him all the time.

When Xiao Mo was young and unsteady on his feet, they would go out to play; after walking some, he’d tire and want to be held by Ye Fei.

Not to mention even now, Xiao Mo still loves to act spoiled with her when no one is around.

Even as Xiao Mo grew heavier, Ye Fei would still hold him.

Over time, naturally, Ye Fei’s strength increased.

Xu Huizhen found her wrist clenched firmly by Ye Fei, unable to move it at all.
