Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After learning that she would have to tolerate all these, Ye Ying’s tears started flowing.

But she was still able to heed Ye Zhifan’s advice. She cried while replying, “I understand, I understand. Dad, I will pay attention to all that. I’ll wait for you to act.”

“Dad will definitely settle it for you! But not now.” Ye Zhifan was extremely worried that Ye Jian’s return would disrupt his daughter. After sighing heavily, he gripped on to the receiver, as if he had suddenly thought of an idea. He whispered softly, “Yingying, you must hold on to the jade properly! Dad can tell you that it’s extremely useful! Even if Ye Jian has someone supporting her, she is just a normal citizen who has a bit of an achievement.”

“You will definitely not be just an ordinary citizen in the future. Believe me, stay calm and take a step back, and things will be better! Wait until we have checked and we will deal with her. It won’t be too late by then.”

Ye Ying was stunned. Why was the jade mentioned?

It felt like it was more important than it seemed to be. Was there a secret behind the piece of jade? This jade... was Ye Jian’s!

“Dad, is the jade really important? I heard you mention it countless times.” Ye Ying took out the jade. She wore it as a pendant as it was pricey and she used it to show it to the high-ranking officials when she went to her classmates’ house to play.

Ye Zhifan had wanted to conceal the truth all the way until she had graduated from university. After keeping quiet for a while, he nodded. “Yes, it’s very important! It’s a symbol of identity!”

A symbol of identity?

Ye Ying was exhilarated and overjoyed. “Does it mean that as long as I have this jade, I would be better than Ye Jian? Is it, Dad?! Is it?!”

She was eager to get a confirmation and her tone was jagged with excitement.

“Yes, Yingying, that’s why...”

Before Ye Zhifan even finished speaking, Ye Ying cut in, “That’s why I don’t have to be jealous of her results right? Because no matter how good her grades are, she will never be better than me?”

After laughing, Ye Ying became curious and asked, “But, I don’t quite understand. How does this jade represent one’s status? Dad, tell me. I need comforting, I don’t want to be compared to Ye Jian.”

Ye Zhifan knew it. Once he had revealed that the jade was a symbol of status, his daughter would definitely ask him till the end.

After a slight sigh, he whispered, “I’m not too sure myself. When your aunt sacrificed herself, the jade was one of the things that she had left behind. Soon after dad became the village leader, I received a call that told me to keep the jade safe and never to tell Sun Xueqing’s daughter.”

Sun Xueqing was Ye Jian’s mother.

“As for this jade, I kept it because it was valuable until I had a smooth sailing career and became the town mayor. The leader personally came down to have a conversation with me, and I knew that someone was secretly helping me in the dark.”

Everything happens for a reason.

Thinking about it, Ye Zhifan guessed that the man behind that piece of jade... was the one helping him in the dark.

That was why he said that the piece of jade represented one’s status. If it was not someone with status, how could he help him?

“But Yingying, this is all just a guess. You need to work hard too! If her results are good, you will have better results than her! My darling is so smart, how can she be defeated by someone worse than her?”
