Chapter 705 - 694: The Male Supporting Character’s Bai Yueguang
Seeing Ye Jian Country’s guilty expression, Ye Qiu knew he had misunderstood again and quickly said, "Dad, what are you thinking? That’s not what I meant!"
"Then what is it? Don’t tell me you’ve broken the law? Sweetheart, do as I say, don’t follow those people in the industry indulging in that messy stuff, they’re no good," Ye Jian Country became even more anxious at the thought.
"Oh, Dad!" Ye Qiu was both amused and frustrated, "Do you really think so poorly of me?"
"How could that be? My sweetheart is the best!" Ye Jian Country assured vehemently.
"Then why would you guess that I do those things?" Ye Qiu rolled her eyes, "I just want you to agree to stop buying clothes, bags, and cosmetics for me."
"Why?" Ye Jian Country asked, perplexed, "Don’t all girls like these things? Sweetheart, don’t you like the brands Dad bought for you recently? It’s fine, we can just switch to other stores."
"That’s not the point. I think I already have enough of those things, and it’s a waste to buy more to just let them sit there."
"Waste? I see those female celebrities in the circle buying a lot, and you shouldn’t have less than others. Daddy has the money to buy for you," Ye Jian Country promised. "Dad will work hard to make money for sweetheart."
"Dad!" Ye Qiu felt both helpless and touched. Seeing Old Ye like this, she felt even more guilt surge within her. In her last life, if it wasn’t for her, Old Ye’s company wouldn’t have gone bankrupt, and he wouldn’t have committed suicide because he couldn’t handle the pressure, which turned his hair white overnight.
It was all because of her, his unfilial daughter, that Old Ye was lonely and miserable.
But in this life, it won’t happen. Since Old Ye dotes on his daughter, she will be a good girl, indulging in his affection.
"Dad, daughter means to use the spare cash to invest in making movies. If we make more money, we can enjoy life better, right? Daughter also wants to rely on you to buy a luxurious cruise ship! Then we, father and daughter, can sail around the world on the cruise ship!" Ye Qiu cooed while leaning against Ye Jian Country.
"Sweetheart wants a cruise ship? It’s not that Dad can’t afford it right now," Ye Jian Country felt like he grasped the key point and started to mentally calculate his assets.
"Dad, daughter doesn’t want to buy it now, but to wait until we are very, very rich before buying. What’s the point if we buy a cruise ship now and don’t have other money to spend? It wouldn’t be fun to play like that," said daughter, sticking her lower lip out.
Ye Jian Country furrowed his brows deeply: "Sweetheart, what you said makes sense. Should we focus on making money first?"
"Yes!" Ye Qiu’s eyes sparkled as she looked at him, "Let’s work hard together. Our goal is to buy a big oil tanker soon. As for the money you planned to spend on clothes and bags for me, let’s invest it instead. We don’t need to buy unnecessary things now."
"How can they be unnecessary? Aren’t all female celebrities..." Ye Jian Country’s voice got weaker under Ye Qiu’s gaze.
"Dad, I have enough of those things, and some clothes I haven’t even worn! And even if I need them, doesn’t our company have a wardrobe department? I can just get them from there when necessary."
"But how’s that the same? The clothes from the wardrobe department have been worn by others." Ye Jian Country was reluctant for his daughter to suffer, feeling extremely distressed.
"What’s the issue? It’s just clothes. Oh Dad, just listen to me, I will handle my expenses; you just focus on earning money for the cruise ship," coaxed Ye Qiu, knowing that this was the most effective method with a father who was a daughter-slave like Ye Jian Country.
"Alright, Dad will listen to you, but you mustn’t suffer any hardships. Let Dad know if you need anything."
"Hmm, daughter knows, Dad, when have I ever suffered losses!"
"Hmm, my sweetheart is the best!" Ye Jian Country affectionately ruffled Ye Qiu’s hair.
Ye Qiu affectionately leaned on his shoulder and smiled, "My Dad is the most awesome too!"
Ye Jian Country was so charmed by Ye Qiu that he laughed heartily, feeling extremely warm inside, while his resolve to earn even more money strengthened.
While they enjoyed this warm moment, little did they know that someone had been waiting for news from Ye Qiu the entire day.
To fulfill the promise of helping Ye Qiu with her upcoming game competitions, Su Sui spent the whole day and night familiarizing himself with several wildly popular online games, not even sparing the time to play the small standalone game Happy Eliminate. He was all set to impress Ye Qiu, but why was there still no news from her when they had already agreed that he would accompany her in gaming?
Could she have forgotten?
Su Sui pursed his lips tightly, the veins on the back of his slender hand becoming more pronounced, then the video in front of him switched to the moment Ye Qiu drove away from the residential area.
Where has she gone for so long? Mingming had checked and she didn’t have any schedules lately.
Has she gone to see Jiang Yao?
Thinking of that handsome man, Su Sui’s lips grew even paler, and a struggle kept flashing through his eyes.
Jiang Yao is a Best Actor, not only from a privileged background but also very accomplished himself. Most importantly, he maintains a clean lifestyle. It’s no wonder that Ye Qiu would like someone like him!
But what about himself? Having no connections at all with her social circle and only skulking in dark corners to spy on her, how could someone so contemptible as himself be worthy of her?
Perhaps it would be best for her to be with Jiang Yao?
Tormented by pain, Su Sui struggled, not knowing whether he should let go or not. He felt unworthy of her, but did Jiang Yao love Ye Qiu as deeply as he did?
"Ding..." Just as Su Sui’s thoughts were running wild, Ye Qiu sent him a message.
His train of thought disrupted, Su Sui’s lips curved up when he saw the message.
"Su Sui, are you free today? Can you teach me how to play games?"
With just this short sentence, Su Sui felt as though he could already see the beautiful and vivacious face of the woman on the other end of the phone.
"Yes."
After typing this word, he added another line: "Anytime is fine."
"Great, I’m just about to get home. Come downstairs, let’s go to my place."
Seeing this line of invitation, Su Sui got up in a fluster, and in his haste even knocked over a trash bin, but he didn’t have the mind to pick it up now. The first thing he did was to change into a set of neat clothes in his room, looking at the handsome face in the mirror, his smile grew wider. However, as he left the house, he pursed his lips and put on a hat.
When he arrived downstairs, he found that Ye Qiu was already waiting at the edge of the open lawn. He hurried over, simultaneously cursing himself for being too slow, how could he let her wait?
"That was quick!" Ye Qiu looked at him in surprise. In fact, she had sent the message after parking her car, not expecting him to come down so soon.
"Not quick." Su Sui said softly, "Next time, I won’t make you wait."
"Huh?" His voice was too soft, Ye Qiu couldn’t hear clearly, her expression somewhat bewildered.
Stealing a glance at her, Su Sui quickly lowered his head again: "Nothing, let’s go."
"Oh, okay." Ye Qiu led the way, holding a bag of vegetables. Su Sui followed behind, feeling at a loss, hesitating whether he should take it from her. But by the time he decided, they had already arrived.
Su Sui was filled with regret.
