“You don’t have to say it. I already know,” Ye Li said, giving Ye Xiyuan a fierce look. “But winning the championship isn’t that easy! Do you think all the judges are on your side?”
Ye Xiyuan didn’t respond to Ye Li’s words. Instead, she took out her phone, operated it for a moment, and then handed it to Ye Li.
Despite his lingering anger, when Ye Li caught a glimpse of the designs on Ye Xiyuan’s phone, his eyes lit up. He even reached out to snatch the phone from her hand, his gaze fixed on the screen displaying the design drawings.
“Dad, what do you think of these designs?” Ye Xiyuan’s eyes gleamed with pride. “Do you think these designs have what it takes to win first place in the design competition?”
“These designs are truly exceptional!” Ye Li’s earlier anger had completely dissipated now. In fact, he appeared rather excited. He raised his head to look at Ye Xiyuan, his eyes filled with enthusiasm. “Xiyuan, where did you get these design drawings?”
As long as they could identify the designer responsible for these drawings and bring him or her into the Ye Group, victory in the upcoming design competition would be assured. Moreover, having such a designer on board would significantly boost the Ye Group’s development.
“l drew these designs in my free time.” Despite her efforts to contain it, there was a trace of excitement in Ye Xiyuan’s voice. “It looks like they’ve captured your attention!”
“Hahaha, Xiyuan! I never expected you to possess such talent,” Ye Li exclaimed. At this moment, he was no longer angry but rather filled with contentment. “Dad knew you would never disappoint us. If those people knew 1 had such a gifted daughter, they would be incredibly envious.”
The more Ye Li looked at Ye Xiyuan, the more satisfied he felt. Though losing the support of the Nangong family was regrettable, if Ye Xiyuan indeed possessed such remarkable design talent, it would be a tremendous asset for the Ye Group.
Observing Ye Li’s change in mood, Lin Wanqin couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. She smiled and suggested, “Honey, so much has happened today. I think Xiyuan must be tired. Why don’t you let her rest?”
“Yes, Xiyuan!” Ye Li beamed at Ye Xiyuan. “Go upstairs and get some rest. Tomorrow, come with me to the company. You can head directly to the design department to assist.”
“Honey, what are you saying?” Lin Wanqin playfully nudged Ye Li with her elbow. “Xiyuan is still a high school student! Her studies are crucial. And don’t forget, she’s about to participate in the National Mathematical Olympiad Competition; she can’t afford to take time off.”
“Oh, I almost forgot about that.” Ye Li slapped his forehead and smiled kindly at Ye Xiyuan. “Xiyuan, I’ll arrange a nominal position for you in the company’s design department! Right now, your top priority is the math competition.
After it’s over, you can focus on preparing for the design competition.”
“Alright, I understand.”
Ye Xiyuan rose from her seat and headed upstairs.
Once inside her room, her smile instantly vanished, replaced by a mocking expression.
She had long known what kind of person Ye Li was and had prepared herself for how he might treat her if they lost the support of the Nangong family. So, when she saw Nangong Xuyao’s decreasing favorability, she had been ready. As expected, Ye Li’s attitude had changed as soon as he realized she could still benefit the company.
However, if Ye Li chose to treat her this way, she wouldn’t blame herself for being unfeeling. She would enter the Ye Group, but she wouldn’t serve the Ye Group’s interests without reason. She would take control of the Ye Group, making Ye Li bow before her. She was determined to show Ye Li that she, Ye Xiyuan, wasn’t so easily manipulated.
After a night of commotion, Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Lengan didn’t head straight home after leaving the banquet. Instead, they went for a late-night snack. After eating, Ye Lengan impulsively took Huangfu Ruiling for a walk along the beach..
