Almighty Daughter Runs The World

Chapter 5: First Pot Of Gold

Upon hearing that, Ye Zhuo raised an eyebrow ever so slightly.

From the remark, it was not difficult to tell that Ye Sen had a strong opinion of Mu Yourong. It seemed that there were still some hidden stories she had yet to unravel.

Ye Shu spoke up, "Let's stop talking about whether she is ungrateful. I can guarantee that Zhuo Zhuo is definitely not that kind of person! Oh right, you must be hungry after delivering packages until so late. There are noodles in the pot. You can get yourself a bowl while I prepare the bed for Zhuo Zhuo."

"I shall go with you, mom," Ye Zhuo uttered.

"Alright."

Then, the mother and daughter went to the room and took out the bed sheet to prepare the bed. It would be fine to leave the bed sheet spread out on the bed in the summer under normal circumstances. However, they were in a basement. The basement was extremely dim and cold all year round, regardless of the weather or season on the outside.

Ye Shu was still very unfamiliar with her daughter, Ye Zhuo. As a result, she was slightly reserved in her behavior and speech. She was even feeling at a loss for words when making the bed, so the atmosphere became a little awkward.

Ye Zhuo sensed Ye Shu's cautiousness; so, she smiled and searched for mutual topics of conversation.

She was not the original owner of her current body, so she was certain that she would not disappoint Ye Shu. In fact, Ye Zhuo was an orphan in her past life. Therefore, she would certainly protect the motherly love she now had that did not come easy to her before.

After the bed was prepared, Ye Shu wanted to serve Ye Zhuo some cut watermelon. However, Ye Sen stopped her. It was obvious that he was displeased. "Sister, she is the eldest daughter from a wealthy family, and she even uses Evian mineral water to wash her face! Why would she eat the watermelon in our slum? Don't you get snubbed despite your good intentions!"

Ye Sen was present when the Evian mineral water incident took place. He wanted to beat Ye Zhuo up at the time and only held back because Ye Shu stopped him. The girl had truly gone too far!

Ye Shu furrowed her brows ever so slightly and said softly, "The child has already admitted her mistake As her uncle, why do you still want to fuss over this matter?"

"A human's mind is unpredictable! Sister, the child you raised all by yourself turned out to be an ungrateful brat; what more of this child who was raised by someone else!? I'm just afraid that you'll be hurt!"

Even though Ye Sen was a rather foolish person, he was genuinely very concerned about his elder sister, Ye Shu. He was afraid that she would be hurt once again.

"Don't worry; it won't happen." Ye Shu said with a determined expression. "I can tell from the child's gaze that she has changed for the better."

Ye Sen heaved a helpless sigh, but he did not attempt to stop Ye Shu anymore. "Sister, you refuse to give up until all hope is gone."

Ye Shu smiled and carried the watermelon while she walked to Ye Zhuo's room, not forgetting to turn around and remind Ye Sen, "Rest early after you're done eating. You lose nine out of ten times at gambling. You're not allowed to gamble."

Ye Sen nodded in response.

Then, Ye Shu arrived at Ye Zhuo's room with the watermelon. "Have some watermelon, Zhuo Zhuo."

"Thanks, mom."

Ye Zhuo used a toothpick to pick up a chunk of watermelon. She gave it a taste and found that it was very sweet because it was the middle part of the watermelon's flesh.
