ON!IBESAFL | Chapter 8 – Apologize to them

As someone with zero real-world relationship experience but maxed-out theoretical knowledge, Ye qinya could tell at a glance—

Ou Minghan did not truly love her.

Whether a CP was sweet or not, whether they had chemistry—she knew. As a former hardcore shipper, she had once believed in them completely. Now? She had already gone from fan to anti-fan.

From her perspective, Ou Minghan’s gaze toward her was never genuine affection. It was performance. He was simply acting the part of a domineering CEO who loved her.

“Sis, this is my boyfriend, Ou Minghan,” Ye qinya said sweetly. “I used to hide my identity while working at his company, and then—”

“I’m not interested in your story,” Ye Zhi interrupted calmly.

She knew their entire mess better than Ye Qinya did. In fact, she even knew how many times they had slept together—though the exact details weren’t in the novel, since the website wouldn’t show that kind of content.

Ye Qinya looked toward her boyfriend with grievance.

But Ou Minghan wasn’t even paying attention to her emotions anymore.

His gaze was locked on Ye Zhi—dark, heavy, and wary.

This woman felt wrong.

Completely different from Ye Qinya.

Ye Qinya was simple, naive, easy to manipulate. A few vague sweet words and some gifts were enough to make her happy.

But Ye Zhi—

She was sharp. Dangerous. Hard to control.

For some reason, it even felt like she could see straight through him, like he had nowhere to hide.

Was she here because she had already noticed something?

Ou Minghan’s expression darkened.

He decided to test her.

After greeting Ye family’s parents, he turned to Ye Zhi with a rare polite smile.

“You must be Qinya’s older sister. I’ve heard a lot about you. Nice to meet you.”

Ye Zhi raised a brow.

The more she looked at him, the more she confirmed one thing—this scumbag was truly fake down to the bone.

Smiling faintly, she replied, “How nice is ‘nice’ exactly?”

Ou Minghan: “……”

He couldn’t respond.

A flicker of irritation flashed in his eyes. He hated women he couldn’t control.

But he quickly composed himself and ignored her remark.

“I heard from Qinya that you studied abroad since high school and have been gone for eight or nine years. Why did you suddenly come back? Could it be—”

His eyes turned slightly cold as he joked half-seriously,

“—to fight for the family inheritance?”

Ye Zhi was genuinely speechless.

He might as well have written “you’re here to steal the family fortune, aren’t you?” on his forehead.

What a disgusting man. He wasn’t even married into the family yet, and he already acted like the Ye family assets belonged to him.

Smirking, Ye Zhi turned to Ye Yongxian.

“Dad, why don’t you just hand the company over to me?”

“Then come work at the company,” Ye Yongxian replied cheerfully. “I can train you as the successor—”

“No way!” Ou Minghan instantly panicked.

He hadn’t expected her to actually bite.

If Ye Yongxian trained her as an heir, then everything he had done to win over Ye Qinya would be completely useless.

“Mr. Ou,” Ye Zhi said lightly, “you’re not even married into the family yet, and you’re already trying to interfere in our household affairs?”

Ou Minghan quickly regained his composure.

“Miss Ye, you’re misunderstanding. Of course the Ye family matters are decided by Uncle Ye. I just feel sorry for Qinya—she’s too kind and innocent to fight for her own interests. And as for Yuzhe… shouldn’t he also have a share?”

“Brother Minghan, I—” Ye Qinya started, touched, but he stopped her with a look.

He was waiting for Ye Zhi to take the bait.

She had siblings. Surely she wouldn’t dare claim everything for herself.

And if she did get angry and start arguing? Even better. He could push Ye Qinya to subtly provoke her, and Ye Yongxian would naturally grow disgusted with this “greedy eldest daughter.”

But Ye Zhi only smiled more brightly.

“Ah, Mr. Ou, you still don’t understand Qinya,” she said casually. “She’s so kind and innocent—how could she possibly fight me for inheritance?”

She tilted her head.

“In fact, I’m doing this for you both.”

“Qinya told me her greatest wish is to marry you and live happily together. She has no interest in managing a company, so as her sister, of course I should help her achieve her dream—so she can enjoy a carefree life with you.”

“Big sister… you’re so good to me…” Ye Qinya said emotionally.

Ou Minghan, on the other hand, was grinding his teeth in anger.

She was too easy to fool. Too stupid.

Then Ye Zhi continued smoothly.

“As for Yuzhe—there’s no issue at all. He’s only in eleventh grade. He still needs to go to university, then maybe a master’s degree. By the time he graduates, it’ll be seven or eight years later. Even if he doesn’t want to work in the company, I’ll personally drag him there.”

She raised her fist slightly at him.

“Ah?!” Ye Yuzhe shrank into the sofa pitifully.

His big sister was terrifying.

Old memories resurfaced—she had always been the strictest one. His parents couldn’t bear to hit him, and his second sister was too soft. Only Ye Zhi—

She really would hit him.

Seeing the once-rebellious boy reduced to this, Ou Minghan’s expression darkened further.

He hadn’t expected her to shamelessly take control of the entire Ye family right in front of everyone.

By then, the company would already be full of her people.

What inheritance was left to fight for?

Just as the atmosphere turned increasingly unfavorable, Ou Minghan immediately changed the subject.

“Uncle Ye,” he said smoothly, “I came today to return the car. The Toyota has already been repaired. Someone will deliver it this afternoon…”
