Chapter 41
Ye Shaohua changed the book of hand. After hearing the words, she lowered her head and smiled : “Calm down ah, Jie 1.”
“Calm down an egg 2!” Older cousin apparently seemed very angry. After this, you could hear her pant roughly. “You went to Su clan’s competition and made a substitute play. Grandfather went over, your well-behaved substitute actually beat people and they want you to hand him over. Otherwise, Su Clan will not let you off!”
Ye Shaohua raised an eyebrow. “Don’t ah, how can I find a substitute to play, I myself am equal to five of them.”
“You?” When Older cousin heard this, even if the circumstances were not too encouraging, she still wanted to jeer at her a bit. “One Cheng Yaojin can beat you to death with a red buff, and you still say you can beat five? Hurry and explain, or I will beat you up!”
There seemed to be something happening on Older cousin’s side. Finally, after leaving a sentence asking to give the substitute’s information, she hurriedly hung up.
Ye Shaohua touched her nose, put the cellphone on the book, and opened the door to go in the house.
**
Ye Family’s study room.
Xu Feifei looked at her mobile phone, and she put on the appearance of someone who didn’t dare believe the shocking thing she saw. “Dad, I didn’t expect Shaohua meimei3 to actually do such a thing. The netizens transferred the recordings. After all, we are sisters, although she was watching me… and was desirous of my live broadcast, but after all, we are sisters, I don’t want to see her fall from grace in such a manner. Now Su Clan must be awfully furious. I can still say a few words to Su Clan’s leaders, how about I help her plea for leniency?”
Ye Zongguo sat in a chair at his desk, his expression very gloomy.
After this scandal broke out, Su Clan and Fang Clan received a very big impact, especially Fang Clan.
Although the effect on them was not great, Ye clan’s stock still fell a bit.
Hearing what she said, he only coldly returned two words. “No need. Remove your emotions for that person. It is not worth it to waste it on her.”
Xu Feifei was obedient and sensible. Not only had she good achievements, but her live broadcast of The King’s glory and her skills as a female anchor were all top quality. She was very promising for Ye Clan.
Ye Zongguo was planning on recommending her to Su Clan. She was not like Ye Shaohua who only knew how to impassibly read books and didn’t understand anything.
Xu Feifei had already expected this outcome, so she was not surprised at all. “But meimei was just too impulsive. Young people may just act in a fit of pique. Dad, you should persuade her, maybe she will listen.”
“You, don’t get involved in this matter. Su Clan always disliked people who used substitute player the most. The Su Head’s methods are always ruthless. This time, Fang clan will unavoidably have to shed a layer of skin. He will not be willing to take things lying down. You should do your things nicely, don’t let her weigh you down.” Ye Zongguo shook his head.
Although Ye Shaohua was his daughter, she had not made something of herself. This time she even caused a great disaster. He could not risk offending Su Clan by sending her plea for leniency. How was she worthy of this.
Since Fang Family liked this maternal granddaughter so much, let’s just give her to them.
Xu Feifei heard what he said, and regretted turning around to leave the study room. When she went out, the corner of her mouth raised with a smile.

Ye Shaohua returned to her room. On the way, she only saw a few servants who didn’t even open their eyes to look at her.
That’s right, this family had changed to a new mistress, and her, that daughter of a deceased wife, had no authority behind her words.
She reached out and flipped the book on the table. Before it was over, there was a servant who knocked on the door in a peculiar way and said that her maternal grandfather had come.
When Ye Shaohua went downstairs, she heard the very ample voice of her maternal grandfather.
“Now Fang clan is watched attentively by Su clan and unable to help Shaohua. That child wants wholeheartedly to be an anchor, Zongguo, you open a small live broadcast room, let her have what she craves for.” When her maternal grandfather said this sentence, his attitude was very humble.
“You know yourself, with Shaohua’s technique our company’s fans will just spit on her impassively,” Ye Zongguo sneered. “I don’t dare to let her ruin the reputation of our tiger live broadcast.”
“Not necessarily playing games,” her grandfather smiled. “She looks good, she sings well, and she will earn money for your company…”
“Father is capable but, a bright man does not speak obscure words4. How much potential she has is clear in your heart, but she still offended Su Clan. Openly using a replacement to play against a professional player, this kind of person, it’s unlikely they will let her off..” Ye Zongguo directly interrupted him.
Ye Shaohua stood on top of the stairs, her heart felt somewhat disgusted.
In the original body’s memory, maternal grandfather was an extremely prideful person. This was the first time he spoke in such a low voice and humble way.
She took a deep breath and went downstairs to stop the grandfather who wanted to say something. “Grandfather, it’s not worthwhile for us to ask him for a favor. Now I am serious. What’s the use of their cheap Ye clan? Go, let us return home.”
She said that she wanted to return home, return to her maternal grandfather’s family.
“But, you…” The grandfather didn’t want to go at all. Now it was safer for Ye Shaohua to stay in Ye Family.
“Grandfather,” Ye Shaohua still did not forget to take the book she brought back. She lowered her eyes and smiled. “You believe me, en?”
This was a Ye Shaohua whom her grandfather has never seen before. This way of looking disdainfully at the whole world, it almost even made him shake. Only when she was outside the door did he finally react.
In the house, Ye Zongguo’s voice was still loud. “Roll5! Hurry and roll out of Ye Family for me! Ye Family doesn’t need your existence. Ye Shaohua, you should have listened well to me. When you are at the end of your rope, don’t come back to look for me !”
“You…” Ye Shaohua’s grandfather opened his eyes wide and took a quick look at Ye Shaohua. He felt that she shouldn’t have been so impulsive.
But after all, she was a big granddaughter that he spoiled from childhood. In the end, he was reluctant to open his mouth and find faults with her.
He just sighed, “Let’s go back, but go to Su Clan before going home. Your older cousin is there. Go, speak nicely and apologize to Su clan’s people. Hand the substitute over to them and let him confess. You’re, after all, someone my daughter gave birth to, they probably won’t make things too difficult for you.”
Ye Shaohua: “…”
She couldn’t help but want to rub her temples. Predecessor ah, predecessor, what did you do, letting people all over the world think that you were always playing using a substitute?
But looking at her grandfather who worked hard for herself, Ye Shaohua didn’t oppose him and quietly followed him.
Ye clan investigated the recordings, only to see Qin Feng and Ye Shaohua on the screen, but when Qin Feng later came out, they only thought that Ye Shaohua had once again found a new substitute player.
Because the need for new blood in the professional team was pressing, Manager Su met Ye Shaohua and her cousin that very night.
“I have searched everywhere for the person on the recording, but I still didn’t find him. You, tell me who that person is. Speak and I will no longer look into the matter.” Manager Su looked at Ye Haohua.
This was very important for the world tournament, and Young Master also cared about it a lot.
“Yes ah, Shaohua, I didn’t expect you to know such an e-sports expert,” said her cousin, she was a tall, high-pitched beauty, but her temper was a bit impatient. She slapped her favorite Ye Shaohua’s head. “I didn’t see him ah. Who is that person in the end, do I know him?”
Almost everyone in the room looked at Ye Shaohua.
Ye Shaohua, neither quickly nor slowly turned her mobile phone to them. She leaned her head and smiled: “That person, you may not believe it but, the me right under your nose can beat him 1 to 5.”
Manager Su’s full of expectation appearance suddenly turned cold.
Footnotes
1.Jie is Big sis, but cousin is not SH’s real big sis. It’s an affectionate way to call her
2.I’m not sure if the author wanted to say this but : SH says 淡定, so I translated it to calm down cause it means calm and collected, and cousin answers 淡定个蛋 so ‘calm down an egg’, but egg ‘蛋’ is also used as ‘testicules ‘ in internet slang and dan ding 淡定=蛋腚 [Unusually] calm/calmly. The alternative homophone expression is 蛋腚 “balls+butt.” In internet slang too. So it’s a bit of word play haha source : https://hahachn.wordpress.com/internet-slang-glossary/
3. little sister
4. 明 is bright, wise and it’s opposite is 暗dark, secret, obscure so : wise people don’t use words with hidden meaning
5. roll is ‘get lost’
