The big star has a prince syndrome

Chapter 147 Disillusionment

It was inconvenient for Ye Yan to go out, so she could only arrange for the driver to let Xiao Rui take Ye Youcheng and Qiu Yuan out for a walk.

After lunch, he was the only one left in the huge house, which was really boring.

He half-lay on the sofa and read the entertainment news. The photo of his new hairstyle taken by paparazzi at the airport last night was indeed on the hot search again.

Ye Yan cut his hair. There are actually only a few photos of him leaving the airport in this topic, but it doesn’t stop his fans from being crazy excited.

[I told you not to mess with him, but now, the icy beauty looks even more handsome after getting a haircut!]

[The movie star instantly turned into an idol, my wife stepped on me! ]

[So handsome, so handsome, so handsome! ]

[Ahhh Xu Qingran, I'll fight you to the death! The vengeance of having my wife stolen is irreconcilable!]

[Finally showing the back of the neck, who knows how skinny and sexy it is]

Without exception, all the comments were positive and licking the screen, which made him feel refreshed and his lips curled up unconsciously.

Since he was free anyway, he opened the photo album to give his fans a treat. There were a few photos in the album that he took at the beach yesterday.

He was carefully choosing which one to send out on a whim when a sudden phone call interrupted his choice.

When he saw the note on the caller ID, tension and anxiety instantly spread from his chest.

It was Lin Anyi. This was their first private conversation, and it definitely wasn’t about the endorsement.

What is there to be afraid of? Her son must have me, Ye Yan comforted herself silently. Xu Qingran had said that if his mother wanted to use the breakup fee to persuade him to leave, she should accept it and give him her share of the money.

With the assurance Xu Qingran had given him in advance, Ye Yan adjusted his breathing and answered Lin Anyi's call as confidently as possible.

"Hello, Mr. Lin?"

Perhaps because she knew that Lin Anyi did not agree with them being together, Ye Yan's throat was tense, causing her voice to be a little stiff.

"It's me. Is it convenient for us to meet? You know I'm a businessman and don't like to beat around the bush. Let's talk about you and my son."

A woman's confidence comes from her identity, which is like a mountain pressing down on Ye Yan, making it hard for her to breathe.

He was sure that he didn't like talking to someone like Lin Anyi, but he seemed to have no right to refuse, because this was Xu Qingran's mother, and he had to pretend to be polite no matter how rebellious he was in his heart.

"Okay, when?"

"The day after tomorrow at 2pm, I'll come to S City to see you in person. Of course, I don't want Qingran to know about this. It's just you and me, is that okay?"

"Of course, you are the elder and you have the final say."

"You're quite sensible. I hope you'll always be this sensible. See you the day after tomorrow."

Lin Anyi hung up the phone first and gave unilateral orders. Ye Yan, who had not been educated by her elders since adolescence, felt very bad. She took a deep breath and slumped on the sofa.

So should I tell him? This is a problem that Ye Yan must consider. If I tell him, Xu Qingran's personality will inevitably cause him to repeat his rebellious period at home. He already has a tense relationship with his parents, and this will only make him more tired.

After thinking it over again and again, Ye Yan decided not to say anything for now. He wanted to hear with his own ears the purpose of Lin Anyi meeting him, just in case it wasn't to persuade them to break up.

"He said before that he had no interest in the company, but now he suddenly wants to take over the company. Is his condition for inheriting the company to be with me?"

He suddenly thought of this possibility, and after being surprised, his expression actually looked better.

"He's so tough, I feel embarrassed to let him down..."

He collapsed on the pillow, mumbling with a faint smile, and found a reasonable reason to comfort himself. The tension in his body instantly relaxed. He took a look at the schedule for the day after tomorrow and found that there was no announcement.

Lin Anyi confirmed the meeting address with him on the day of the meeting. Ye Yan didn't tell anyone about this, but only told Ye Youcheng that he had to go out for work.

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but these past two days he always felt that Ye Youcheng was not as energetic as before.

He asked more than once, and every time Ye Youchengdu said it was because big cities were too boring, unlike his hometown where he could meet old acquaintances just by going downstairs and they could chat and drink tea.

Ye Yan understood that although his place was expensive, it was indeed isolated and he had more opportunities to see couriers than to see his neighbors. He could only transfer a large sum of money to Xiao Rui and ask her to accompany the two elders to go shopping, relax, eat, drink and have fun.

He went to meet Lin Anyi by himself without even calling a driver.

It was a coffee shop with an average consumption of four figures per person. It was located on the top floor near the ATIM Group branch building. It had a wide view and an elegant environment, like a sky garden.

Ye Yan had never had the chance to come here for coffee, and today was his first time. Even though he was wearing a cold hat and a mask and standing in such a luxurious space, he was still so unique.

He had never been here before, but even so, when he saw the empty cafe, he didn't think that business was bad. It was obvious that Lin Anyi had booked the whole place.

"Are you here? Considering your status as the spokesperson for our ATIM Group, it's better to keep your private conversation private. Come and sit down. Their desserts are made by the country's top pastry chefs. You're so busy and a public figure, you probably don't have much chance to relax, right?"

Lin Anyi, who had arrived early, smiled and invited him to take a seat. Ye Yan did not hesitate and immediately walked over and took off his hat and mask before sitting down.

"Hello, Mr. Lin, long time no see." He had to face the awkward situation, and he would only be so willing to accept the appointment if it was related to Xu Qingran.

Lin Anyi smiled, cut a piece of mousse cake with her own hands and handed it to Ye Yan without saying a word.

It was the sweet food he hated the most, but he had never made his taste public. It seemed that Lin Anyi did not want to make trouble for him on purpose, so she politely said "thank you".

Lin Anyi stared at him, trying to find something about him that fascinated Xu Qingran.

He really has advantages everywhere. He looks even more unreal in person without makeup than on TV.

"No wonder Qingran likes you so much, Snow Mountain Fireworks, it really lives up to its reputation."

The sudden praise made Ye Yan's hands go into a mess and she started scratching her thighs.

"It's just fan praise, it's not that exaggerated, but thank you Mr. Lin for the compliment."

As he said this, he picked up the coffee and took a sip. It was not that he didn't like coffee, but he had a headache and the doctor had told him not to take anything stimulating to avoid aggravating his condition.

So he would rather risk a recurrence of his headache than touch the cake he didn't like.

What exactly does she want to say to me...is she going to agree that Xu Qingran and I should be together?

Ye Yan was nervous and expectant, but he couldn't openly confirm Lin Anyi's expression. With his lowered eyes, he could only look left and right.

As if she could see that he was uncomfortable, Lin Anyi put down her coffee spoon, restrained her smile, and brushed her long wavy hair behind her.

"You're nervous, so I won't beat around the bush with you. If you break up with Qing Ran first, maybe you can still retain your celebrity pride and dignity. But if you wait until he hurts you, it will be too late to regret."

What it feels like to be disillusioned.

When Lin Anyi said an answer that was completely opposite to what Ye Yan had guessed, he could even clearly hear something in his heart fall to the ground and shatter into pieces with a bang.

At that moment, the hope in his eyes was instantly extinguished and shrouded in gloom.

"I know you don't agree. Qingran told me that he wouldn't hurt me. He..."

"Don't jump to conclusions. Women don't believe men's lies anymore. Most love is just a passing passion. It's not easy to expect it to last forever. People can't just indulge in the happiness of the moment. Reality is the truth. You're not from the same world."

Lin Anyi interrupted him, her words were profound but harsh.

What followed was the expected "breakup fee". Lin Anyi took out a check from her bag and put it in front of Ye Yan before he could think of refutating his words.

Two hundred million, more than he had imagined when he was joking with Xu Qingran.

"Because you are excellent, you deserve this figure. You'd better accept it."

"What if I don't? I want to hear how you will threaten me and how you will convince Xu Qingran to give up on me."

Ye Yan looked at her firmly, without a trace of fear in his eyes, only confidence, the confidence that Xu Qingran would fight the whole world for him.

Perhaps it was within Lin Anyi's expectations. Facing Ye Yan's rejection, she remained calm and composed with a smile on her face.

"It seems that you are very confident about Qingran's feelings for you. I hope you can still be so confident after you know his true feelings."

Ye Yan didn't understand what she meant, and thought to herself, isn't his real intention to give up everything and be with me? How dare he have any other thoughts?

He felt that he could no longer talk to Lin Anyi, so he decided to accept the check as planned and then give it to Xu Qingran to discuss further.

He was about to pretend to agree to Lin Anyi's conditions, but the moment he looked up, Lin Anyi touched the screen of her mobile phone, and his voice, which was so familiar to him, rang out of nowhere without warning.

"I can not be serious with Ye Yan, but I have one condition."

"I want to take power. You must hand over the decision-making power of the group to me. I want to show you that ATIM Group can dominate the world without relying on marriage to consolidate its strength. If you agree, I promise that within five years, you and Dad will have grandchildren. Otherwise, the efforts of three generations of the Xu family will be wasted."
