"Didn't we just give Mom that money? Could we have bought a 200-square-meter luxury apartment in Jinling with it?"
Li Mengyao trembled.
The housing prices in Jinling had brought despair to many young people.
A luxury apartment, even in her dreams, she had never dared to imagine.
But Ye Yun, to protect her, had thrown away five million without batting an eye?
"It's just five million. We can earn more slowly. We'll have luxury apartments and money. As long as you and Keke are not harmed, I'm willing to spend any amount."
Ye Yun smiled.
"Are you planning to buy a house?"
Li Mengyao hesitated for a moment, asking uncertainly.
"I have that intention. It shouldn't be too long, at most a month, and we can move into a new house." Ye Yun nodded.
He only mentioned a new house, not what kind of house it was.
Li Mengyao certainly didn't know that the new house she mentioned and the house Ye Yun spoke of were two different things.
But even so, she was already very happy.
At their age, the number of young people who could afford to buy a house in Jinling based on their own efforts was few and far between.
"Then... what about work?"
Li Mengyao's eyes held a glimmer of hope.
She now believed Ye Yun could handle the housing matter, so next, as long as Ye Yun could find a reliable job.
For her, a family of three, this would be the greatest happiness.
"I plan to start my own business, focusing on pharmaceutical research." Ye Yun said.
Hearing about medicine, and remembering that Ye Yun himself was a talented graduate from a medical university,
Li Mengyao's face broke into a smile.
"Keep going!"
"In fact, the experimental results have already shown initial success. In the future, I plan to develop towards establishing a pharmaceutical processing plant."
"What? You already have results!"
Li Mengyao was greatly surprised.
She knew that the direction of the medicine Ye Yun had researched in his previous ventures was related to strengthening the body with traditional Chinese medicine.
Now, Ye Yun saying he had results, did it mean that
the most crucial step had been successfully taken?
"Of course, once the licorice medicine I developed is truly released to the market, it will undoubtedly sweep the entire pharmaceutical market!" Ye Yun's eyes flashed with strong confidence.
Determined, assured of victory.
The success of licorice medicine had already been proven by facts in his previous life.
With his experience reborn, it would surely be faster and more powerful!
Watching the confidence flicker in Ye Yun's eyes, Li Mengyao was momentarily stunned, then gradually entranced.
It was precisely this confidence that had attracted her back then.
Even when life had beaten her down, she was unwilling to give up.
Now, had the Ye Yun of that time returned?
Li Mengyao instantly sobered up as she thought of something, and quickly said.
"You're buying a house and starting a business, why did you still give my mom over five million? How much pressure will you have in the future!"
"No! I must get that money back for you, every single cent!"
At this moment, she seemed to have forgotten that she had given up on Ye Yun half a month ago, even considering divorce.
Instead, she was wholeheartedly considering Ye Yun.
In fact, this was her consistent belief.
A wife follows her husband, living is Ye Yun's person, dying is Ye Yun's ghost.
From beginning to end, her heart belonged only to Ye Yun.
As long as there was a one percent chance, she would not give up on Ye Yun.
Willing to start anew with Ye Yun.
In fact, if Ye Yun hadn't gone mad and gambled away Keke's tuition, leading to Keke being unable to attend school due to lack of funds,
she would not have chosen to divorce Ye Yun, nor would she have moved out.
Even though she had been beaten by Ye Yun multiple times when he was drunk, she still would not have chosen to give up on Ye Yun.
It was just that between Keke and Ye Yun, she chose Keke.
Now, the Ye Yun who was once vibrant and full of confidence had returned, not to mention that
he had proven his ability to change everything.
All of this made her have to make up her mind to resolutely continue with Ye Yun.
"Mengyao, there's no need. Just give that five million to Mom. As I said, consider it your filial piety for these years. As for the house and the business, don't worry, I can handle the funding." Ye Yun quickly said.
Now that Haixin Group was nearing its collapse, the stock market crash was not far off. Shorting it would ensure an income of at least over a hundred million.
Combined with the principal, that would be close to three hundred million.
After using 75 million to acquire all the land in Gaohai Village, even buying a villa would leave over a hundred million.
So, whether it was starting a business or anything else, after these few days, he would not be short of money.
"Even for filial piety, it doesn't have to be this much. No matter what, I must get some of it back."
Li Mengyao said firmly.
After speaking, Li Mengyao quickly drank the warm milk in her hand and said, "It's almost time, I'm going to work first. You take Keke to school, I'll wash the dishes when I get back."
As she spoke, Li Mengyao hurriedly put on her bag and walked out the door.
"Mengyao, I'll pick up Keke from work tonight. Come back early, I'll wash the dishes!" Ye Yun bravely called out to Li Mengyao's retreating back.
Li Mengyao stumbled, was silent for a moment, then slowly shook her head and walked out.
Ye Yun didn't have time to be disappointed before Li Mengyao's slightly trembling voice echoed in the air.
"Can't be early. After work, I need to go to Menghan's place to pack some things. The weather is getting cold, and there are no spare clothes for Keke here."
With that, Li Mengyao ran out completely, not daring to meet Ye Yun's eyes.
"!!"
Ye Yun jumped three feet high, clenched his fists, and shouted.
"Yes! Yes! Yes!"
"Daddy, don't jump, you spilled the milk..." Keke reminded him kindly.
"Cough, cough, cough, eat quickly, Dad will take you to school after you finish, you'll be late!" Ye Yun said awkwardly, immediately transforming into a strict father.
However, this was useless to Keke. The little girl made a funny face and giggled.
But clearly, she still sped up her eating.
An hour later.
At the entrance of Ruitai Kindergarten.
After Ye Keke, carrying her pink bear backpack, finally entered the kindergarten, Ye Yun withdrew his gaze, his eyes full of relief.
In both of his lives, this was the first time he had accompanied his daughter to school.
Of course, it would not be the last.
In the future, if he had time, this would be one of his greatest rewards.
Just as he was about to leave Ruitai Kindergarten,
his phone rang.
"Mr. Ye, do you have time now? I've arrived at the intersection near Ruitai Kindergarten. The white Alphard next to it is mine." As soon as he answered, Wang Wenwen said.
Ye Yun looked at the time, good heavens, it was 8:55 AM.
But since Wang Wenwen had arrived and Keke had been safely sent to school, there was no need for him to wait until nine o'clock.
"Okay, wait for me a moment, I'll be right there."
"Okay!"
Everyone had their favorite cars. Wang Meiling, who was in business, loved Bentleys, and the nouveau riche Lin Shiyou was fond of Rolexes.
On the other hand, Wang Wenwen, as a big star,
first considered two points: privacy and comfort.
And a modified Toyota Alphard was definitely the most suitable, bar none.
But sitting in this Toyota Alphard, famous for its comfort, Ye Yun only felt a headache.
Why?
It was precisely because the big star Wang Wenwen was currently chattering endlessly, like a nosy neighbor!
