The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 609: Chapter 610: Ye Lianchen’s Awakening

”The strength of your family is indeed not to be underestimated. Even our Zhou Family can at best look up to it. But so what? Money isn’t the most important thing in my eyes,” said Yue Qingshan indifferently.

Ye Lianchen laughed. Too many women have said things like this around him. Those women all thought themselves extremely lofty, untouchable by money. But later? After discovering Ye Lianchen’s true identity, didn’t they all surrender one by one?

Thus, Ye Lianchen believed there wasn’t a single woman in the world who wasn’t greedy for money—it all came down to the amount.

On the other hand, the M Country Ye Family had the capital that could make all women swoon.

”Money may not be important to you, but the danger your Zhou Family is currently facing is due to a lack of funds, isn’t it? That’s why you can’t handle it,” Ye Lianchen sneered.

The problems facing the Zhou Family now had also been exacerbated by the Ye Family from behind the scenes. Therefore, to some extent, the Zhou Family and Ye Family were adversaries standing on opposing sides.

Yue Qingshan looked at Ye Lianchen and said, ”Now that you’re clear about the problems the Zhou Family faces at the moment, you should also understand what your Ye Family has done behind the scenes. Do you think in such circumstances I might develop a liking for you?”

”If you are willing to be with me, I could easily say a word and have those troubles of the Zhou Family taken care of for you,” Ye Lianchen boasted.

Yue Qingshan showed disdain. While Ye Lianchen was part of the Ye Family, Yue Qingshan was aware that he was nothing more than a playboy with no authority to participate in any Ye Family decisions. All he enjoyed now was the halo given by the wealth and original status of the Ye Family. Within the Ye Family, Ye Lianchen had no real power.

”Are you sure you have the authority to decide matters in the Ye Family?” Yue Qingshan said with a smile.

Ye Lianchen, feeling somewhat insecure inside but showing no trace of it on the surface, indeed had no authority to interfere in the operations and strategies of the Ye Family now. Nevertheless, he excelled at lying. As long as he could deceive Yue Qingshan, whether he could deliver after success wouldn’t matter.

”I may not have control now, but I am the son of the Ye Family Master and will inherit his position in the future. Do you think I won’t have any say in the Ye Family’s affairs?” Ye Lianchen laughed.

Yue Qingshan didn’t fully understand the internal workings of the Ye Family, but he knew that whenever there were significant events or gatherings, the Ye Family Master would usually appear with Ye Qingcheng. This indicated that Ye Qingcheng’s status and influence in the Ye Family were greater than Ye Lianchen’s.

”You’re talking about inheriting the Ye Family, but I believe Ye Qingcheng is more qualified than you,” Yue Qingshan said.

Ye Lianchen laughed. He never thought Ye Qingcheng would become the Ye Family Master. Despite her great capability, she was still a woman, and a woman could never be the head of the Ye Family.

This was exactly why Ye Lianchen never cared about Ye Qingcheng’s accomplishments. He believed that just by being a boy, Ye Qingcheng could never surpass him.

”Don’t you know the difference between men and women? No matter what, my sister is still a woman; she can’t become the Ye Family Master,” Ye Lianchen said.

Yue Qingshan was full of disdain. Ye Lianchen thought that being a male in the Ye Family meant he could act recklessly, but in a noble family like the Ye Family, even a playboy like him couldn’t be the one calling the shots.

”My sister is particularly good to me; she wouldn’t compete with me for the family head position,” Ye Lianchen continued.

”In what way is your sister particularly good to you? Does she let you do whatever you want?” Yue Qingshan asked.

”Of course, I can do whatever I like to do. My sister never bothers me, and she often covers for me with our father. If I mess up, she will put in a good word for me. As an only child, you probably don’t understand what sibling bonds are like,” Ye Lianchen laughed.

Yue Qingshan shook his head wordlessly. Ye Lianchen’s behavior was foolish; he naively believed Ye Qingcheng genuinely cared about him.

What Ye Qingcheng was doing was only to train Ye Lianchen into a useless person so that in the future battle for inheritance of the Ye Family, he’d be powerless to resist. Yet Ye Lianchen was proud of how Ye Qingcheng treated him.

”Why are you shaking your head?” Ye Lianchen asked.

”I think you’re really stupid. All these years, what Ye Qingcheng has been doing is probably only related to playing, right? Hasn’t Ye Qingcheng often encouraged you to enjoy yourself, have fun, and not waste your youth?” Yue Qingshan said.

”How do you know so much?” Ye Lianchen was surprised, looking at Yue Qingshan. Although her words differed slightly from Ye Qingcheng’s, the meaning was the same.

Yue Qingshan laughed heartily. How could Ye Lianchen be so naive? Had he really not noticed any danger? He couldn’t even see through Ye Qingcheng’s little tricks.

”Ye Qingcheng is quite good to you indeed, slowly turning you into a useless idler, making you unable to inherit the Ye Family. What do you actually know about the Ye Family right now? Do you know what the core business of the Ye Family is? Or the future plans of the Ye Family?” Yue Qingshan asked.

Ye Lianchen furrowed his brow. All he could do was spend money. When he didn’t have money, he’d get it from his parents, and if they wouldn’t give it, Ye Qingcheng would. For so long, the only thing he excelled at was indulging in pleasures. But when it came to the current affairs of the Ye Family, he was like an outsider, only aware that their family had a lot of money; he knew nothing else.

Ye Lianchen hadn’t noticed this until now, but when Yue Qingshan brought it up, he realized something was wrong.

”Are you saying my sister intentionally has me do nothing so I can’t inherit the Ye Family?” Ye Lianchen asked.

”You haven’t been completely idiotic. Think about it. If you’re not even aware of your family matters and have never asked about the Ye Family’s business, how can your father let you inherit the Ye Family? Even if your father agrees, wouldn’t the other people in your Ye Family not recognize you? Although Ye Qingcheng is a woman, once she has enough strength to take charge, you won’t even be a threat,” Yue Qingshan said.

Ye Lianchen clenched his fist and smashed it on the table with a bang, face cold, ”You’re trying to destroy the sibling bond between me and my sister, aren’t you? You’re trying to sow discord!”
