Queen of Group-Pampering: Mr. Ye Fights for Attention Every Day

Chapter 17: Her Son Had An Eye for Things

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The genes of the Ye family were very strange—men of the bloodline were averse to casual contact with women.

No matter how many outstanding and beautiful women appeared around them, they would not even take a look as long as they did not fancy the woman.

Fourth Young Master was no exception—he was the Ye family’s little weirdo. Many socialites fawned over him, but he would rather play with building blocks alone than pay attention to them. Yet, he was suddenly holding the hand of a pretty girl now?

Strange things happen every year, but there were really many this year!

Shen Xu clicked his tongue silently.

Ye Mohan’s deep eyes were like a pool of ink. No one could tell what he was thinking.

After a while, he said coldly, “Go and find out if the girl holding Fourth Young Master’s hand is called Xia Jinmian.”

Last night, Ye Moliang had mentioned Xia Jinmian—the orphan who was about to be adopted by his parents—many times in the ward.

Ye Mohan guessed that the SWAT team had arrested Xia Jinmian, and that Ye Moliang and his mother had come to bail her out.

Not long after they arrived at the detention center, Shen Xu found the answer. “Master Han, your guess is really accurate. That pretty girl’s name is Xia Jinmian, an orphan in the orphanage.”

Ye Mohan gave a faint acknowledgement and did not say anything else. He strode over to the interrogation room.

Orphanage.

When the three of them arrived, both Ye Yelin and the Director pulled a rather long face.

“Daddy, is the paperwork done?”

Ye Moliang sensed it acutely, but he still ran closer to ask with an expectant expression.

Ye Yelin ignored Bubba and looked at his wife. He shook his head gently.

Dou Manni frowned. She and Xia Jinmian had chatted quite a bit on the way here and she really liked this forthright and sincere lass. She had thought she would have a daughter who could share girl talk with. Why was it a no-go now?

“Hubby, what’s wrong? What can’t you handle? If you can’t do it, I’ll ask Big Bub to come over. He can definitely do it!”

“…” Ye Yelin’s face darkened. His wife actually said that he couldn’t do it? That lad, Ye Mohan didn’t even have a woman. What’s so great about him?

Ye Yelin was angry. He was intent on proving that he—the father—was more competent than his son!

He looked at Tang Zhuang coldly and said in a dignified voice, “Director, we are intent on adopting Xia Jinmian. Even if the file is incomplete and the household register can’t be transferred, I can create a new file for her.”

Tang Zhuang was overwhelmed by Ye Yelin’s aura. This was the first time in his life that he had encountered such a domineering adoptive parent.

“Sir, I know you really want to adopt Xia Jinmian. We’re all happy that Xia Jinmian met an adoptive parent like you, but now she…” Tang Zhuang glanced at Xia Jinmian and sighed helplessly. “Her file is incomplete now and she’s already an adult. The law doesn’t allow an adult to be adopted. We are really in a tight spot.”

Ye Moliang clenched his fists angrily. “Sister is an orphan. An orphan has the right to be adopted! Moreover, this orphanage’s management is flawed. There have always been cases of adult adoption. Why can’t Sister Xia Jinmian be adopted by the Ye family when she’s an adult?”

Tang Zhuang was stumped by the question. He looked at Ye Moliang—who was barely five years old—in shock. How did he know so much?

Xia Jinmian was also surprised. She walked closer and stroked the little munchkin’s head. “How did you know?”

Ye Moliang’s anger was instantly extinguished upon hearing his Pretty Sister’s question. He said shyly and proudly, “Since we want to adopt Sister, Bubba will definitely do the homework! So don’t worry, Sister. With Bubba around, you will definitely become a member of Bubba’s family!”

Dou Manni and Ye Yelin were not surprised by Ye Moliang’s question. All their sons were very outstanding and would definitely put their best foot forward once they set their mind to something.

That was why Dou Manni and Ye Yelin trusted the five-year-old Ye Moliang’s judgment. If he felt that Xia Jinmian was good, then Xia Jinmian must definitely be good.

Her son had an eye for things.
