【New Red Mansion】Perfect World

Chapter 255 Why don't you let me pass? My true nature is exposed

As the saying goes, don't speak short words in front of a dwarf!

The biggest reason why these two dragons and phoenixes in the bridal salon were so at loggerheads was because of face. Ye Shuyan felt that she had no face. When other people got married, the grooms accompanied them to look at wedding dresses, but she chose and tried them on her own, without anyone accompanying her. But the good thing was that she could tell the staff that Li Hanlan was busy with work, and everyone would understand.

However, she should never have met Xue Baochai. She saw Li Hanlan's attitude towards her most clearly, so Ye Shuyan also began to hate Xue Baochai. Now she understood why she hated Lin Pin'er so inexplicably. First, it was because she saw that she was not favored in front of Li Hanlan, and second, she had snatched away the favor of Madam Li. To put it bluntly, Ye Shuyan was angry at Lin Pin'er because he failed to win favor.

However, now Xue Baochai is just as unpopular as herself. Ye Shuyan can see that Li Shuirong doesn't like her, and Madam Li doesn't treat her well either. Now Ye Shuyan has found a balance, and she is finally not the only one who is unpopular.

In the old house of the Ye family, the floor of Ye Shuyan's bedroom was a mess. After Ye Shuyan came back, she learned that her marriage with Li Hanlan had not passed the examination, and she was so angry that she swept all the bottles and jars on the table to the floor.

The servants stood at the door and looked out, not daring to go in, thinking that they would wait until the young lady had finished venting before going in to clean.

Old Mr. Ye walked over tremblingly with a cane. Ye Shuyan had been raised by Old Mr. Ye since he was a child, and later he was trained and educated by Ye Shuo, so he could be considered closer to his grandfather and second uncle.

"Come with me." Old Master Ye knocked on the ground with his cane, and Ye Shuyan stopped crying and stood up reluctantly. She followed Old Master Ye into the study and closed the door. The servants swarmed into Ye Shuyan's bedroom to clean up. Why did they say crowded? Because Ye Shuyan smashed all the famous cosmetics. The young lady would definitely not want the outer packaging, but the cosmetics inside could still be used, so in a few seconds, the things on the ground were snatched away by everyone.

"What are you making a fuss about? Where have you learned the cunning that your second uncle taught you?" Mr. Ye asked as soon as he sat down.

Ye Shuyan sobbed and then answered intermittently: "The review for my marriage to Li Hanlan did not pass."

Mr. Ye was also stunned after hearing this, and then began to think.

Ye Shuyan suddenly asked, "Why? Why don't you let me pass? Who did I offend?"

Ye Shuyan usually pretends to be a lady from a noble family in front of everyone, and speaks in a proper manner, intellectual and elegant. But that is just a gorgeous robe she puts on when she goes out to face everyone. When she gets home and takes off the robe, her true nature is completely exposed.

After hearing what Ye Shuyan said, Mr. Ye started to panic, but he had to pretend to be calm. However, Ye Shuyan was still acting like a spoiled brat regardless of anything.

The reason for panic is: with Li Hanlan's current position, the person he wants to marry must pass political review. The Ye family now relies on Ye Shuo and holds a lot of power, not to mention that the power of Mr. Ye when he was young protects Ye Shuo's position. It stands to reason that it should not be rejected. Although Ye Shuyan's translation work has not yet transformed into a career, it can be said that it is not worth it!

But this inexplicable failure made Mr. Ye, who was extremely sensitive to politics, start to panic.

Otherwise, why do they say that old ginger is still spicy! Mr. Ye’s panic is very reasonable. Because Li Hanlan took action in advance.

In fact, Li Hanlan has always known about the cooperation between Ye Shuo and Li Haoze, but he did not dare to touch Ye Shuo. He wanted to borrow his political power, so he had been suppressing his engagement with Ye Shuyan.

But the superiors are very suspicious. Ye Shuyan should never have loosened up the people around Li Hanlan. In fact, his purpose was just to check the style of his wedding dress. But in Li Hanlan's eyes, he felt unsafe. The people around him were bribed, which made him feel dangerous, just like losing protection.

The information exposing Ye Shuo was sent out by the secretary bribed by Ye Shuyan. Li Hanlan also quickly changed his secretary. Everything happened so quickly without any warning.

Li Haoze had recently sent people to keep an eye on Madam Li's movements, fearing that he would miss any news about equity changes. He was so eager to gain control of the aircraft manufacturing base that he even wrote a development plan for the next five years.

He visited the aircraft manufacturing base more than once. It was like a small country with complete facilities, self-sufficient and able to operate normally.

Li Haoze really desires power, but he was not originally trained for a career in officialdom. Especially after he started doing business, the more officials he came into contact with, the more he wanted to become one of them. Currently, only the aircraft manufacturing base can satisfy all his fantasies about power, so he will get control at all costs.

The phone screen lit up, and messages came in one after another. Li Haoze looked down and flipped through them, then impatiently turned off the screen.

All of them were messages from Xue Baochai, reporting Li Shuirong's situation to him, and hinting that she went to try on the wedding dress by herself today. In fact, Xue Baochai had hinted to Li Haoze countless times, with the purpose of asking Li Haoze to help him. Xue Baochai knew how to show weakness and play dumb. She would not say what she wanted directly, but showed weakness and let Li Haoze solve it.

In fact, Li Haoze knew nothing, and Xue Baochai was too clever for her own good. He would have known that Xue Baochai wanted to use him, but Xue Baochai should also have known that Li Haoze was using her.

Li Haoze didn’t understand why these women cared so much about marriage. He was a person who was willing to use marriage for business, but unfortunately his marriage had no value to be exploited, so he took advantage of his third brother’s marriage.

When Li Shuirong and Lin Pin'er were preparing to get engaged, Li Haoze got a message that Madam Li was willing to give 10% of the shares to Lin Pin'er. After that, Li Haoze tried several times, but when her proudest grandson Li Hanlan got engaged, Madam Li did not mention the 10% shares again. Li Haoze revealed that she was not very excited about the fact that she would soon have a great-grandson. That meant that the problem was with Li Shuirong, so Xue Baochai arranged it.

If Madam Li favors her youngest grandson, then she can arrange a fiancée for him who can be controlled by her. When they get married, Madam Li will give away the 10% of the shares, and she can control Xue Baochai. With the shares she acquired before and the shares she owns, she can control the aircraft manufacturing base. When she controls the aircraft manufacturing base, the industries outside will have the power to operate in the future.
