Chapter 2: Young Lady of a Prestigious Family (1)_2
Translator: 549690339
Ye Shaohua: "mmp."
After hearing what was said, Ye Shaohua's complexion wasn't particularly good, as she found herself unexpectedly played by someone else.
Ye Shaohua, an internationally top-notch hacker special agent, capable of manipulating computers across thousands of miles to toy with the entire Alliance System, was the FBI's most troublesome subject. They had once cast a wide net just to catch her alone, yet she still managed to escape.
Her name remained at the top of the international assassination bounty list, with the reward climbing to an astronomical 500 million dollars, yet no assassin organization dared to take the risk lightly.
Ye Shaohua knew that the truth behind her sudden rebirth into this body was surely more complex than she had imagined.
The first quality of an excellent special agent is super strong adaptability.
Since she couldn't return for the time being, she would complete this mission well, and once she had enough points, she would return to reality.
To see who it was that dared to move against her.
The car gradually came to a stop, and the luxurious gate was now close at hand.
Ye Shaohua knew that the whole plot was just beginning, and the person in the passenger seat was her half-brother from the same father, Ye Han, who had just picked her up from the small town back to the Ye Family today.
She lowered her gaze, following behind Ye Han as she got out of the car, and in the instant her eyes were lowered, the temperature inside the vehicle suddenly dropped to a freezing point.
It was still morning, and sunlight filtered through the clouds, casting her eyebrows and eyes in a particularly delicate light, yet nobody saw the trace of cold and sinister mischief in her deep eyes.
As soon as they got out of the car, a line of people emerged from the mansion, led by a middle-aged man who looked at Ye Han with loving eyes, "Young Master is back, the lady and Young Lady are waiting for you inside the house, and Young Master Fu Jiachen is here too, please come in quickly."
"How come Brother Fu is back?" Seeing the butler, even Ye Han's cold face displayed a hint of a smile.
"He finished the collaboration ahead of schedule and rushed back from Imperial City," the butler explained, leading the way with a side-step, his gaze turning cold as soon as he saw Ye Shaohua, his voice also becoming indifferent, "Young Lady, please come this way."
Ye Shaohua casually put her hand in her jeans pocket, obediently following the butler inside.
However, the path she was led on differed from Ye Han's; Ye Han went straight through the front door, but the butler took her through the back door to the upstairs, then pointed at a room on the floor and said, "This is the room that the lady prepared for you. There are new clothes and shoes inside. Change and come out again. Today, Young Master Fu is here too, and he is the fiance of the second Young Lady. Do not offend the honorable guest."
Ye Shaohua entered the room with a downcast gaze, never lifting her head the whole way, appearing like a country girl who had suddenly arrived at a wealthy household from a small county town.
Appearing fearful, in reality, she was organizing the information given to her by 008.
The butler retracted his scrutinizing gaze from her.
Ye Shaohua closed the door and glanced around the room that the Ye Family had prepared for her before changing into a white dress.
The dress was slightly big.
But Ye Shaohua wasn't the original inhabitant of the body, devoid of the gloominess associated with it, and the pure white dress, a bit too large, underscored her slender figure. Her black hair that reached her waist draped behind her, making her eyes and brows even more delicate and exquisite.
The butler had already started urging from outside the door; Ye Shaohua slightly narrowed her eyes, retracted the sharpness around her, and opened the door to leave.
The butler had looked up her information before Ye Shaohua's arrival. In his memory, Ye Shaohua, due to her mother's early death and her upbringing with her grandparents, was filled with melancholy and had an ordinary temperament. Yet now, as he looked at her, he felt the person before him was different from the one investigated.
However, good-looking people always have privileges. After seeing Ye Shaohua's somewhat stunning face, he softened his tone for once, "Young Lady, please follow me downstairs."
Downstairs, a group of people sat in the living room, discussing mall matters in a harmonious atmosphere.
Ye Shaohua immediately noticed the girl sitting with her back to her, still wearing a Ning City No. 1 Middle School uniform; she knew that she was her half-sister from the same father, Ye Ke.
The butler proudly introduced at her side in a low voice, "That is the lady, this is the second Young Lady, your sister, an IT genius praised by Master Lian Cheng."
Upon hearing this, Ye Shaohua couldn't help but stretch out her slender fingers to press against her thin lips, then she simply laughed.
IT genius?
Alright, she would meet this world's IT genius.
Ye Ke seemed to have heard the Butler's voice, her gaze turning toward Ye Shaohua, her tone restrained and polite, "Big sister has returned."
Fu Jiachen, who was standing next to her, had only heard from Ye Han before returning that the Ye Family even had an elder young lady, his curiosity piqued as he turned his head to glance over.
Ye Family's young lady, Ye Ke—talented since childhood, even professors of the national laboratory had invited her; who in Ning City doesn't know her?
Ye Shaohua kept her head down, wearing a mix of assorted clothing that hardly seemed remarkable.
On the way here, Fu Jiachen had heard some rumors that the Ye Family had spent a large sum to send Ye Shaohua to First Middle School, where the teachers, after seeing her grades, shook their heads, not wanting her—a unique situation in their social circle.
Although this young lady bore the title, privately, who in the circle didn't snicker a time or two?
A good hand, played terribly by her own actions.
Both from the Ye Family, yet the gap between them seemed a bit too vast, didn't it?
Fu Jiachen cast a look at Ye Shaohua, who was lowering her eyes, then indifferently withdrew his gaze.
And then he continued to speak softly with Ye Ke.
His expression amiable.
The noblewoman standing next to Ye Ke also turned her face over, and once her gaze met Ye Shaohua's, the smile on her face faded slightly, "You've returned just in time, Jiachen has just come back from Imperial City, and he brought a gift for you, too."
Following Mrs. Ye's gaze, Ye Shaohua saw the man in a well-tailored black suit sitting next to Ye Ke—she knew this was Fu Jiachen.
Fu Family's Young Master naturally had an extraordinary demeanor, with distinct facial features, sword-like eyebrows reaching into his temples, a countenance that would be first-class in the Entertainment Circle, and no wonder the original Ye Shaohua fell for him at first sight.
The Butler was right beside Ye Shaohua, sensing her gaze toward Ye Ke and Fu Jiachen, especially how her gaze lingered on Fu Jiachen for a moment.
His eyebrows instantly knitted together, then he looked at Ye Shaohua with a very cold gaze, whispering sternly, "Young Lady, Young Master Fu is the second young lady's fiancé, and the Fu Family and the madam's family have been friends for generations. Now that the madam has decided to bring you back, you should just behave yourself as the Ye Family's elder young lady."
After hearing the Butler's words, Ye Shaohua couldn't help but narrow her eyes.
The Butler was knocking on her door, warning her, reminding her to remember her place and not to harbor any foolish fantasies.
Ye Shaohua chuckled softly, turned her eyes slightly, and whispered, "Rest assured, my taste... isn't that poor."
Her eyes, filled with a cold light, swept over the Butler.
Just one glance and then she looked away.
The Butler, however, noticed the piercing chill in her clear eyes, and his pupils shrank.
No, it wasn't right; he was aware of the origins of this young lady, a girl brought up by a conservative, feudal elder, who was quite timid and gloomy when he first met her, definitely not a facade.
In less than an hour, she shouldn't have such... sharp eyes, should she?
The Butler furrowed his brows, it must have been an illusion.
Mrs. Ye leisurely sipped her tea and noticed that Ye Shaohua was still standing by the staircase, not daring to come over.
Indeed, quite petty, such a person Mrs. Ye didn't take too seriously, which emboldened her to bring Ye Shaohua back home.
She lowered her eyes to hide a hint of mockery in them and opened her mouth lightly, "Come over and sit."
Ye Shaohua complied and walked toward them, a gleam flitting through her pitch-black eyes. If she were truly the girl who grew up with her grandfather, she might have been intimidated by the glorious Ye Family and the extraordinary presence of the people around her.
However, sorry to say, this current bunch... just doesn't have what it takes, for now.
