Chapter: 2972
The Ye family has many relatives spread across the country and even around the world. While they all share the same surname, the wealth of the Ye family is much greater than that of their distant relatives. Because of this, Zhong Tianyu knows he shouldn’t mess with a direct member of the Ye family, but he feels confident when it comes to their more distant relatives.
Zhong Tianyu’s own Zhong family is respected, and they have a good relationship with the Ye family. He won’t let anyone from outside look down on him.
At that moment, Charlie Wade grinned and asked, “You mentioned knowing Ye Changmin. Are you close with her?”
“Of course!” Zhong Tianyu replied quickly. “Aunt Ye is good friends with my father. We even had dinner together a few days ago!”
Charlie, curious, asked, “Since you’re so close to Ye Changmin, has she ever mentioned me to you?”
Zhong Tianyu scoffed, “You’re just a cousin in the Ye family. As far as I know, there are many young people like you in the family. Aunt Ye would never mention you to me.”
Charlie smiled and suggested, “Why not grab your phone and call her? You can ask her yourself.”
Zhong Tianyu felt a bit uneasy at Charlie’s playful demeanor. He started to wonder if Charlie might actually have some important connections. But then he thought that being able to call Ye Changmin could work in his favor.
So, he nodded eagerly, “Alright! Give me your phone, and I’ll call Aunt Ye to find out who you really are!”
Wade winked at Chen Zekai and said, “Old Chen, can you have someone bring him his mobile phone?”
At the same time, the Zhong family was trying to find out more about the situation. They learned that Zhong Tianyu had been taken directly to Buckingham Palace by some strong men at the airport. This news shocked the Zhong family. Everyone knew that Buckingham Palace belonged to the Ye family. Now that Zhong Tianyu had been arrested and taken there, the Zhong family wondered if the Ye family was involved.
The Zhong family had no issues with the Ye family, and their relationship was a bit complicated, so it was strange that the Ye family would take Zhong Tianyu. Zhong Tianyu’s father, Zhong Zhengtao, decided to call Ye Changmin right away. In his phone, Ye Changmin’s name was simply saved as “Chang Min,” showing that they had a close relationship.
When Zhong Zhengtao called, he felt anxious. He greeted her gently, saying, “Changmin, what are you up to?”
Ye Changmin sounded happy to receive his call and replied, “Oh, I’m just doing some skincare.”
Zhong Zhengtao was surprised. “Why are you doing skincare again? Didn’t you just do it yesterday?”
Ye Changmin laughed and explained, “Well, I was busy with work on my last trip and didn’t have time for my skin. So now I’m taking care of it.”
As she spoke, she stretched and yawned before playfully asking, “Why did you call? Did you miss me?”
Zhong Zhengtao quickly replied, “Of course I miss you! But the main reason I called is to ask you something.”
Ye Changmin giggled, curious about what he wanted to know. “What is it?”
Zhong Zhengtao suddenly said, “Tianyu was taken away right after he got off the plane for a performance.”
“Really?” Ye Changmin exclaimed in surprise. “Tianyu is a public figure. Who would dare to do that in broad daylight?”
Zhong Zhengtao sighed and replied, “I heard he was kidnapped and taken to the Buckingham Palace Hotel in Jinling. I can’t help but wonder if it has anything to do with your Ye family.”
Ye Changmin was shocked and exclaimed, “What did you say?! Jinling?!”
