"Auntie!"
Delighted, Ye Ci went over to Ye Ting.
Ye Ting patted her head affectionately.
"It's been a while, Lil Ci. You've grown even more beautiful now. Did you miss me?"
"Of course, I do!" Ye Ci hugged her aunt gleefully. The two of them looked as close as mother and daughter. "Auntie, it's been a while since you came back."
Ever since Ye Ting married a man in the capital, she barely came back to Yunzhou. Most of the time, she only returned because of Ye Ci.
Ye Ci lost her mother when she was very young, and Ye Ting loved her like her own. Therefore, Ye Ting slowly accepted Su Yuan because she treated Ye Ci like her own daughter.
"Come, sit beside me."
Ye Ci also said hi to Su Pei who was playing games on his phone and simply nodded to his cousin.
Ye Ting glared at her rude son, but he simply turned a blind eye to her.
Su Pei was born when his father was quite elderly, and the boy grew up with utmost attention and care, which resulted in his arrogance and hot temper. He was in his second year of high school this year and was addicted to games, so he never really paid attention to his studies.
If it was not for his wealthy background, the boy might have already been expelled.
The reason he followed his mother here was that he was involved in a fight at school, and he was instructed to stay at home for a few days to reflect on his actions.
Ye Ting brought him here, hoping that he could learn a thing or two from his cousin. Unfortunately, the more she cared for her son, the more unruly he was. As a result of his rebellious nature, he gave Ye Ci the cold shoulder.
To him, Ye Ci was the kid next door to whom his mother would compare him, and he found it irritating.
It was not the first time she was being ignored by him anyway, so Ye Ci was not overly concerned.
She tugged Ye Ting's hand softly and switched the topic.
Ye Ming then called Ning Li over, "Ning Li, come here."
The man cared about his reputation a lot, especially at family gatherings of this scale. He tended to be as thoughtful and considerate as possible in front of everyone.
Ning Li went over and pulled a chair out for herself, then Ye Ting finally noticed her.
"Su Yuan, is this your own daughter?"
The room went silent for a moment.
Ye Ting was being overly frank, and her comment was unnecessary, However, she did it on purpose.
Ning Li looked at Ye Ting and noticed the woman sizing her up. Ye Ting might have been flashing a courteous smile at her, but behind that fake smile was cold hostility.
Ning Li understood the hostility behind Ye Ting's fake smile. Su Yuan had taken good care of Ye Ci for many years, and even after she gave birth to Ye Cheng, she tried her best to look after Ye Ci in every aspect.
Ye Ting was satisfied with Su Yuan's performance, so she did not want to be calculative anymore.
However, with Ning Li's arrival, things changed.
Ning Li was Su Yuan's own flesh and blood, and Ye Ting was also a mother herself. Therefore, she knew what it meant when it came to her own flesh and blood.
