1928: The Rise of Giants

Chapter 64 Waiting for Me to Marry You
In the room on the second floor, Li Shuzhen was comforting the crying Bai Xiuzhu with soft words.

Bai Xiuzhu felt extremely aggrieved.

After learning that the Northern Expedition had come to an end and the Feng clan warlords retreated outside the customs, and heard about Lu Yongxiang's overnight escape from her brother Bai Xiongqi, she immediately rushed to the Ye family to find her brother Ye Luo, worried that he would be implicated.

Bai Xiongqi bluntly said that even if the Ye family survives the catastrophe this time, they may not be able to escape the fate of falling into the dust. She and Ye Luo are planning to slow down their marriage.

Bai Xiuzhu promised, but secretly asked her sister-in-law to borrow money. The two women took out all their personal money, scraped together a total of [-] US dollars, and rushed to the Ye family for help.

Who knew that this was what I was waiting for!

"Okay, okay, my dear, you won't be beautiful anymore if you cry." Li Shuzhen felt sorry for Bai Xiuzhu, and secretly scolded her son for being irresponsible and messing around.

She originally didn't agree with the marriage. After all, there was a gap between the Bai family and the Ye family. Bai Xiongqi's so-called finance minister was in name only, and it was the Bai family who let Bai Xiuzhu into the Ye family.

But now that the Ye family is in trouble, Bai Xiuzhu still persists and even pooled a large sum of money to help Ye Luo.

Li Shuzhen had already identified Bai Xiuzhu as her second young mistress.

It doesn't work if anyone opposes it!
"It's useless no matter how beautiful you are, he doesn't like it! He doesn't like me at all! Wuwuwu" Bai Xiuzhu cried while wiping her tears, "How could he be like this? I never want to see him again in my life!"

"Ah? Sister Xiuzhu, if you really think that, I'll go out." Ye Luo was holding the bag and just pushed the door open when he heard Bai Xiuzhu scolding him. He laughed and closed the door again.

"Come back here!" Li Shuzhen glared at Ye Luo angrily.

Ye Luo pushed the door open again and came in.

"Mom, go over there and talk to Qingqing and the others. We don't plan to leave." Ye Luo briefly told Li Shuzhen the conclusion. Seeing that he was talking about business, Bai Xiuzhu sniffed and stopped crying. Listen quietly.

Hearing that he didn't plan to leave, Bai Xiuzhu felt anxious and sat over to hold his hand: "Brother Ye Luo, you are crazy. My brother said that the Ye family must be the highest on the list of people to be liquidated in Jinling. The one in front of you, if you don’t leave, it will be too late!”

"Okay, you stay here with Xiuzhu, I'll go talk to them." Li Shuzhen was very straightforward, got up, went out and closed the door.

She is a hot-tempered woman from Sichuan and Chongqing. She has been through many ups and downs with Ye Yuqiao over the years. No matter what the men decide, she will always obey them when it comes to major issues.

Because she knows that the power is greatest when there is only one voice in a home.

"Xiuzhu, I'm really touched that you can come to my house." Ye Luo stood next to her and gently pulled her shoulder.

Bai Xiuzhu looked at him up close, her cheeks flushed slightly, she wanted to sit further away, but couldn't move her legs.

Ye Luo tentatively held her in his arms, and when he saw that she only struggled a few times and then stopped moving, he boldly lifted Bai Xiuzhu's chin and tasted her fragrant lips.

"How could you do this!" Bai Xiuzhu weakly pushed Ye Luo, and finally leaned into his arms obediently.

She really likes Ye Luo so much.

I like her so much that even if I know he has a woman outside, I can't help myself.

"I promise you, Xiuzhu, I will marry you after your birthday this year." Ye Luo winked at her and said with a smile.

If he wants to build a new force in Shanghai, a family is essential.

Now that the Northern Expedition has come to an end, Bai Xiongqi is getting closer and closer to taking the throne. Becoming an in-law with the Bai family will be a good thing for the Ye family, himself, and his career.

And among his women, Bai Xiuzhu is also the most suitable to be his wife.

"What about that woman?" Bai Xiuzhu's head was buzzing, "Oh, who promised to marry you! I don't want to marry you!" Ye Luo didn't answer, just hugged her gently and comforted her in a low voice. After a few words, he asked about the origin of the money.

He was afraid that Bai Xiuzhu had stolen Bai Xiongqi's money and came to help him.

Ye Luo breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that it was Bai Xiuzhu and Mrs. Bai's private money, and then was stunned.

These two women from the Bai family are not simple.

Mrs. Bai looks virtuous and gentle, while Bai Xiuzhu looks delicate and rude, but they are not ambiguous at all on major matters, and their wealth is far beyond Ye Luo's imagination.

Seventy-two thousand US dollars, almost 17 oceans!

I really don’t know how they saved it.

The two were affectionate for a while, and Ye Luo took the blushing Bai Xiuzhu downstairs, and happened to meet Li Shuzhen coming down with a group of women.

In the past, if something happened at home, the Ye family would quickly become one. Men would listen to Ye Yuqiao, and women would listen to Li Shuzhen.

However, now, almost all the people in the Ye family who can run have run away, and Ye Yuqiao, the mainstay, can't hold it anymore.

Fortunately, the presence of Ye Luo and Ye Hao made these women feel more at ease.

They all looked at Ye Luo.

Now that they've decided not to leave, they wonder how else they can help.

"Brother, please immediately take someone to send Mom and her friends to the British Consulate in Shanghai. I have many acquaintances there. George will help." Ye Luo did not hesitate and glanced at the door, "I will send Xiuzhu back. It's too late." I'm afraid the minister will have to bring someone to our house to ask for someone. Dad, Ayuan, please go to Ye's Automobile Company to reassure them. As long as our Ye family doesn't leave, they won't be completely separated."

After giving these instructions, Ye Luo pulled Bai Xiuzhu out of the door, called Ma Yongzhen and drove towards Bai Mansion.

Before getting into the car, Bi Yunxia came running with small steps: "Second Young Master, wait a minute."

"What's wrong, little mom?" Ye Luo looked down at her.

Among Ye Yuqiao's women, when the disaster struck, only Li Shuzhen, Li Wenting and Bi Yunxia remained, while the other mistresses and even his third concubine, Peifen, ran away.

Li Wenting has been following Ye Yuqiao for a long time. Ye Luo can understand why she doesn't leave.

Bi Yunxia was just an actress who escaped south from an accident in Peiping, and was bought by Ye Yuqiao at will to serve as a maid. In recent years, her status in the Ye family has been slightly better than that of Xiaoli and others, and she has been following them and never leaving.

Thinking of her every move during these days, Ye Luo felt relieved.

It suits her temperament quite well.

"I know there is nothing I can do to help the second young master. Here is some money that I have saved. The second young master can use it. This is the little thing I can do. Second young master, please don't dislike me." Bi Yunxia secretly gave it to the second young master. He has a small cloth bag.

Ye Luo weighed it and found it was quite heavy. It was probably worth a lot of money.

He took a deep look at Bi Yunxia, ​​then looked at the garage, and then asked lightly: "Mom, did you sell your car?"

"Well, I didn't get used to driving it, so I sold it." She lowered her head and said.

Ye Luo clenched the small cloth bag tightly and put it in his arms: "When this thing is over, I will give you a better car. Thank you, little mom."
