Chapter 17
Ye Tong had just returned from a date with Xiao Shuo, a joyful look on her face.
Seeing the furious Zheng Cai, her heart lurched, and she immediately rushed over. "Mom, what happened?"
When Zheng Cai saw Ye Tong, she tried to suppress her fury.
But her expression darkened instantly when her eyes landed on the hickey on her neck. "You haven’t even married yet, how could you let Xiao Shuo..."
In reality, the Ye Family was truly reaching above their station by associating with the Xiao Family. But even so, Zheng Cai looked down on Xiao Shuo; everyone in Upper City knew that the second son of the Xiao Family was the most disappointing. Because his father, Xiao Li, was so irresponsible with business, old Mr. Xiao never allowed him to meddle in the Xiao family’s affairs. Besides a monthly allowance of 200,000, their family branch’s shares only yielded a few million at year’s end. To this day, she still couldn’t understand what her astute daughter saw in Xiao Shuo. Were it not for the child in her belly, she would have taken her time to find a more suitable match for her, no matter what.
She bit back her words several times, only able to redirect her anger toward Ye Yuning.
"What else could it be? That little bitch Ye Yuning is demanding a dowry of two hundred million!"
She’d always said that little brat wasn’t the obedient type; she couldn’t believe she was waiting here to pull something like this on her. What should she do now? At this critical moment, she’s demanding two hundred million—should she give it or not?
When Ye Tong heard Ye Yuning demand two hundred million, she gasped. "What? Two hundred million? Is she insane?"
Someone like her is worth two hundred million? She should take a good look in the mirror and see what she’s really like!
