Everyone Hates the Substitute Until He’s Reborn

In his previous life, when Ye Chaoran was 16 years old, he was suddenly visited by a rich man who told him he was the young master of the Fang family who lived in a different city.

Little did...

Chapter 42 Feng Shui Master

Early the next morning, Ye Zong received the news that Fang Qishan had also relented last night.

In Cai Lianhua's confession, she cleared herself of all charges and said that everything was caused by Fang Qishan's coercion.

How could Fang Qishan tolerate her throwing all the dirty water on him?

Although this matter was indeed planned by Fang Qishan, Cai Lianhua also contributed a lot to it.

If they were not separated by an interrogation room, the two would have wanted to confront each other and curse each other, and they would have fled when disaster struck.

After Ye Zong hung up the phone, Tan Zheng sat up.

"What's going on now?"

Ye Zong briefly explained the matter to Tan Zheng.

They didn't stay in the hospital too late yesterday, mainly because they didn't want to disturb Ye Chaoran's rest.

He had just gone through such a big thing, and it was hard for him to rest in the hospital. After the police finished questioning, Ye Pei and Song Ya decided to take Ye Chaoran home.

Before leaving, Song Ya invited them both to go home together. Ye Pei stood next to Song Ya, neither saying yes nor no.

In the end, Tan Zheng smiled and rejected the suggestion. It was already late. If they went back with them, they would probably have to spend half a day there. It would be better for them to go back first and go back the next day.

Before Song Ya could speak, Ye Pei nodded first.

Before leaving, Ye Chaoran called out to someone in a low voice, "Goodbye, Grandpa and Grandma", which made Tan Zheng so happy.

Ye Zong was also happy, but because Ye Pei was still there, he forced himself to put on a happy face.

After the family and Jiang Xunmo walked away, Ye Zongcai said happily: "Our precious grandson calls me grandpa!"

Tan Zheng was also happy, so she didn't mention those unhappy things anymore.

After returning to the hotel and resting for a night, both of them rested well. Tan Zheng said, "Then shall we go see Ranran now?"

Ye Zong nodded first, then quickly shook his head: "Would it be bad if we went empty-handed?"

Tan Zheng was more thoughtful than he thought: "I had someone bring the gift here before I came to South City."

Ye Zong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The two of them packed up a little and went to the Ye family with the gifts.

I thought they came a little early, but I didn't expect Jiang Xunmo to arrive earlier than them.

As soon as they entered the door, they saw Jiang Xunmo sitting at the dining table, eating breakfast with Ye Chaoran.

When he saw Tan Zheng and Ye Zong, Ye Chaoran immediately smiled and greeted them.

Ye Zong's eyes narrowed into slits, and Tan Zheng was also very happy.

When Song Ya saw that the two of them had brought so many gifts, she couldn't help but say, "Mom and Dad, you can just come over, why bring so many things?"

"These are all prepared for Ranran," Ye Zong said, "We didn't buy him anything when he was a child, so we prepared a little more."

As soon as he finished speaking, the living room suddenly became quiet.

Ye Pei snorted and rolled his eyes rudely at his father.

Song Ya patted him and glared at him.

The smile on Tan Zheng's face froze. Ye Zong smiled awkwardly, knowing that he had said the wrong thing and stopped talking.

Ye Chaoran glanced at Jiang Xunmo, and Jiang Xunmo winked at him.

"Ranran, have you and Xiao Jiang finished eating?" Song Ya asked first.

After all, it was a conflict between their fathers, and it wouldn't be good for Ye Chaoran and Jiang Xunmo to listen here.

Ye Chaoran nodded and looked at Jiang Xunmo again.

Jiang Xunmo finished the noodles in his bowl in a few bites, stood up and said, "I'm done too, thank you Auntie."

"Then you guys go to the room and play for a while." Song Ya smiled.

Jiang Xunmo nodded and stretched out his hand to Ye Chaoran: "Can I help you?"

Ye Chaoran was about to reach out his hand when he suddenly thought of something and quickly glanced at Song Ya beside him.

As expected, Song Ya gave him a meaningful smile.

Ye Chaoran: “…”

Ye Chaoran suddenly thought of the hug in the ward yesterday. His ears instantly turned red. He stood up by himself, holding on to the table, trying not to reveal any flaws in his expression. He smiled and said, "It's okay. I can walk by myself."

Jiang Xunmo didn't force it anymore. He just frowned and watched Ye Chaoran limping towards the bedroom with some worry.

This scene fell into the eyes of others. Tan Zheng's eyes seemed to understand something. Ye Zong was very surprised. He opened his mouth, but then he thought of the inappropriate words he had just said, and swallowed the words back.

The living room was silent until Ye Chaoran and Jiang Xunmo returned to their room and closed the door.

The temperature on Ye Chaoran's face boiled. He sat down at the desk and glanced at Jiang Xunmo cautiously.

Jiang Xunmo's gaze turned directly over here.

The boy's pupils are very deep and his eye sockets are deep. When he looks at someone intently, he always gives people a strange look.

Ye Chaoran's heart skipped a beat and he pretended to be calm and looked away.

So many things happened yesterday. After returning home, Song Ya said she would make dinner for Ye Chaoran and let him rest first. As a result, Ye Chaoran lay down on the bed and slept until the next day.

When she woke up in the morning, Song Ya first knocked on the door and asked about Ye Chaoran's injury.

Seeing that the wound had stopped bleeding, she breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Ye Chaoran's face again, a trace of heartache flashing in her eyes: "Your father said that he would ask his friends later to see if there is any suitable scar medicine."

Ye Chaoran was just about to say that Jiang Xunmo had also said yesterday that he would send him scar medicine, but before he could open his mouth, Ye Pei poked his head in and said, "Ranran, Xiao Jiang is here, and he brought scar medicine."

Song Ya was stunned at first, then she looked at Ye Pei and they both smiled.

"This child is so sweet." said Song Ya.

Ye Pei nodded: "It's good for us."

"Okay, then change your clothes and come out. I'll go make breakfast first." Song Ya stood up and went out with Ye Pei.

Through the door, Ye Chaoran could still hear the laughter of Song Ya and Jiang Xunmo as they talked.

Ye Chaoran didn’t think so much at all at that time!

Now that I realized what was happening, the temperature on my face increased even higher.

How to explain this to his parents?

And Jiang Xunmo probably didn’t notice it, right?

Ye Chaoran felt confused and thought of the hug in the ward yesterday.

He was still crying on Jiang Xunmo's shoulder! it’s done!

Ye Chaoran was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a hole to hide in. Suddenly, he heard Jiang Xunmo ask, "Did you put medicine on your face today?"

Ye Chaoran cleared his throat and nodded: "My mother gave me the medicine this morning, and I applied it after washing my face."

Jiang Xunmo looked at him.

Ye Chaoran: "Avoid washing your face while avoiding the wound."

The wound on Ye Chaoran’s face was not deep and had scabbed over after one night.

Jiang Xunmo took out the scar medicine: "I checked and found that this medicine can be used now. Can I help you apply it?"

Ye Chaoran said hurriedly: "No need, I will apply it myself."

Jiang Xunmo handed him the medicine without forcing him.

Ye Chaoran took the medicine and went into the bathroom.

Jiang Xunmo was sitting on a chair and when he turned his head, he could see Ye Chaoran standing in front of the sink applying medicine in front of the mirror.

In the mirror, Ye Chaoran's ears were a little red, and Jiang Xunmo curled the corners of his mouth.

rare.

Ye Chaoran is already shy, it seems that he is not far from falling in love with me.

living room.

Ye Zong and Tan Zheng sat on the sofa on one side, and Song Ya and Ye Pei sat opposite them.

Seeing that Ye Zong had no intention of speaking, Tan Zheng spoke first and briefly explained the situation on Fang Qishan's side.

"…Although Cai Lianhua wants to throw all the dirty water on Fang Qishan, she is also involved in this case after all, so she can't just stay out of it. The police may contact you again during this period and ask you to go to the police station to take a statement. There's nothing else to do, just remember to ask Ranran to wear a mask every time he goes there."

There are still many residents living near No. 1 Middle School, and all the surrounding residents have heard about such a big thing.

Many people uploaded short videos and photos online. Although Ye Zong contacted people to deal with it as soon as possible, some photos were inevitably leaked.

They must protect Ye Chaoran's privacy, but other aspects cannot be ignored.

Song Ya nodded to indicate that they had taken note.

Ye Pei asked some more details about the case.

Tan Zheng didn't know as much about this matter as Ye Zong, so it depended on Ye Zong.

Ye Zong coughed lightly and repeated to Ye Pei and Song Ya everything the lawyer had said to him this morning.

"…Although they haven't succeeded in the kidnapping, it is still a premeditated crime, and there are many people involved. Fang Qishan, as the mastermind, will be sentenced to a heavier sentence. The lawyer said it should be around five or six years. As for Cai Lianhua, the accomplice will not be sentenced as heavily, but it will not be less than three years."

When Ye Pei heard this, a flash of hostility flashed across his eyes, and he said coldly: "It's a bargain for them."

Ye Zong rarely did not argue: "Don't worry, this matter is not over yet."

Not only Fang Qishan and Cai Lianhua, but also the entire Fang family hiding behind them, he will make them pay the price they deserve.

Everyone was silent for a while, and then Ye Pei asked, "By the way, how did you know that they would come and take Ranran away by force?"

Ye Pei and Song Ya wanted to ask yesterday, but they couldn't open their mouths in front of the children.

After returning from the hospital in the evening, Ye Chaoran was so tired that he fell asleep, but Ye Pei and Song Ya couldn't sleep all night.

The two of them got up early today just to meet Tan Zheng, but they didn't expect Ye Zong and Tan Zheng to arrive first.

Hearing this question, Tan Zheng sighed: "It's not that we didn't want to inform you in advance, but your father and I didn't expect that their family would be so cruel."

Ye Zong was silent for a while, then took over the conversation: "We knew about this half a month ago."

After learning this shocking truth, Ye Zong and Tan Zheng were both extremely shocked.

"Ranran... after all, she is their own flesh and blood. How could this family..." Tan Zheng was so angry that her whole body was shaking uncontrollably.

Ye Zong was much calmer than her. He thought for a moment before saying, "I remember the Fang family believes in Feng Shui?"

Tan Zheng was stunned: "You mean..."

"I'll ask someone to find out who was the Feng Shui master who calculated the Feng Shui for their family when Ranran was born." Ye Zong said.

Seventeen years have passed, and it is not easy to find another Feng Shui master.

It took Ye Zong's people nearly half a month to get the news that this Feng Shui master was now in prison.

Ye Zong and Tan Zheng were very surprised: "Prison? What crime did he commit?"

“Economic crime.”

Ye Zong and Tan Zheng met the "Feng Shui Master" in prison. The man was over sixty years old, but he looked particularly energetic.

After hearing the purpose of Ye Zong and Tan Zheng's visit, the man was stunned at first, and then burst into laughter.

Ye Zong and Tan Zheng looked at each other, somewhat confused.

The man laughed for a long time, until tears came out of his eyes. He stopped laughing and asked the two people, "Did the Fang family go bankrupt recently?"

Ye Zong thought of something and frowned: "Do you hope their family will go bankrupt?"

The man smiled, his eyes showing hatred without disguising: "I dream of their family going bankrupt!"

Afterwards, the man told the two of them a story from the past.

The man’s surname is Zhang and his given name is Xiong.

When he was almost forty years old, he married his wife and had a daughter.

My daughter has been very pretty since she was young, and she has become an elegant young lady when she grows up.

When he was in high school, both husband and wife were by his side and could take care of him. After the college entrance examination, my daughter will go to City A to attend university.

Zhang Xiong's family is not wealthy, but they are well-off. Zhang Xiong also opened a company in the local area, and his daughter has been raised in wealth since she was a child.

The couple is not worried that their daughter will be cheated of money by bad people, but they are worried that men with bad intentions will target her.

So on the day their daughter left, they told her again and again that she could have a boyfriend, but she must get their parents' approval before doing so.

My daughter is cute and innocent. She was very shy when she heard her parents say this, but she still nodded and agreed.

Nothing happened in the three years from freshman to junior year.

Although there were many men pursuing my daughter, she didn't particularly like any of them until her senior year, when she started her internship.

The company where she interned was Fang Qishan’s company, and the tragedy began from then on.

Fang Qishan relied on his status as a boss to make advances towards Zhang Xiong's daughter. College students who have just entered society are particularly easy to control.

Until their daughter called them and asked them fearfully what to do if she was pregnant.

Zhang Xiong and his wife only then realized that their daughter had been bullied for so long!

Zhang Xiong was furious and immediately took his wife to City A.

But what they didn't know was that in the short few hours when they flew to City A, Fang Qishan and his men came to their door, forcibly took their daughter to the hospital, and aborted the baby in her belly.

After the operation, the daughter did not believe this fact and fell from the hospital building during an argument with Fang Qishan.

When Zhang Xiong and his wife arrived, they saw their daughter's body.

The Fang family deleted the hospital’s surveillance footage and tried to attribute the death to an accident. No matter how Zhang Xiong and his wife appealed, they were unable to clear their daughter's name.

That memory was so sad that every time Zhang Xiong mentioned it, his eyes were filled with tears.

"I hate them so much, I wish they would die sooner! But my ability is limited, my small company is like a gnat trying to shake a tree, it won't have any impact at all."

"So you heard that their family believes in Feng Shui?"

Zhang Xiong raised his lips when he heard this and chuckled: "Yes, this is a good idea, but if I don't make myself famous, they won't believe it."

It took Zhang Xiong five years to make his name famous, and then Mr. Fang came to him through someone.

At the beginning, Zhang Xiong was only involved in some simple calculations. Zhang Xiong did have some skills in swindling people over the years. In order to make them believe in himself, he did give some good suggestions.

When the Fang family's trust in him deepened, Old Man Fang took him to meet the twins.

At that moment, Zhang Xiong knew that his chance had come.

He looked at the baby in the cradle and could no longer suppress the overwhelming hatred in his heart.

"When twins are born, one is a blessing and the other is a curse. A lucky star can bring prosperity to a family business, while a curse can destroy a family and cause the business to fail."

"If there are two men, keep one. If there are two women, kill them."

After leaving these two sentences, Zhang Xiong left.

Not long after, he heard that only one of the Fang family's twins was left, and he heard from others that the other child seemed to have been lost by the nanny.

At that time, Zhang Xiong only felt satisfied and disappointed, but this was far from enough.

His daughter and his daughter's child, those are two lives.

But if he only relies on this vague "fortune-telling and feng shui", when will he be able to avenge his daughter?

So Zhang Xiong went to apply for a job at the Fang family's rival company. He had some real talents, otherwise he would not have been able to run a small company on his own.

The reason he went to jail was because he stole the Fang family's business secrets.

Hearing this, Ye Zong recalled the case from two years ago.

The latest product developed by the Fang family was patented and launched on the market by another company first. The Fang family suffered a huge setback that time.

"Did you do it that time?" Ye Zong asked.

Zhang Xiong laughed heartily. "Of course it was me! It's just a pity that what I did was not perfect at that time and I left clues, so I am here now. But it doesn't matter. I won't be locked up for many years. When I get out..."

After asking this, Ye Zong and Tan Zheng also learned the truth of that year.

Just because of a liar's words, the Fang family abandoned the child.

But why is it Chaoran?

Hearing Ye Zong's question, Zhang Xiong smiled even more happily: "Of course it's because the other sickly person won't live long! Heart disease, so what if he stays by his side? The Fang family is selfish and self-interested. For their own future, they will definitely try to keep the sickly person alive. But the source of heart disease is not so easy to wait. What if they can't wait? If they can't wait, they will be desperate and will do whatever it takes."

Zhang Xiong did not hide the malice in his eyes at all: "When I left, I told them that this lucky star is tied to their family's luck. So as long as they find a way to cure this sickly kid, there will always be some handle that they can catch, right?"

"Someone came to visit me last year and told me that the Fang family had already started building an operating room. I told my friend to think of a way to tell other people that the sickly person was the lucky star of the Fang family, and to inform the sickly person as well!"

"You coming to me now proves that what I did back then was not wrong!"

“Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha—”

"Now that we know the Fang family's motives, the next step is to protect Ranran well," Ye Zong said with a sigh, "but we were a step too slow and Ranran got hurt."

When Song Ya heard the word "heart transplant", she couldn't control her whole body and trembled. After hearing Ye Zong talk about this ridiculous motive, she was so angry that tears came to her eyes.

"No wonder... I was wondering why their family wouldn't give up. Ranran had told them several times that she would not go back with them, but they kept sending people to harass her. Yesterday, they even..."

Ye Pei was also furious. He and Song Ya just felt strange at the time, wondering why their family was like a dog-skin plaster that could not be shaken off.

Now that the truth is out, Ye Pei feels not only angry but also uncontrollable fear.

Fortunately, fortunately Ranran suddenly changed her mind and did not follow them home.

otherwise--

Ye Pei couldn't help thinking, otherwise they might never see Ranran again.

"This matter can't end like this." Ye Pei said, suppressing his anger.

Ye Zong nodded, he had the same idea.

"The Fang family is in City A. I have already informed all the partners. I have also obtained some information about their illegal acquisition of medical equipment. When I return to City A, I will hand it over to the police," Ye Zong said in a deep voice. "As for the case from more than ten years ago, I will ask the lawyer to check the information from that year. If the verdict can be overturned, Fang Qishan can stay in prison for the rest of his life..."

Moreover, Ye Zong always felt that Zhang Xiong's daughter was not the only girl harassed by Fang Qishan. If other victims could be found, Fang Qishan would be adding insult to injury.

As for Mr. Fang.

I heard that the old man was admitted to the hospital last night. He had no involvement in Fang Qishan's case. If we want him to go in as well, we have to make the operating room public.

But Ye Zong always felt that sending him in like this would give that old immortal a bargain.

Ye Pei listened and looked at Ye Zong: "What do you want to do?"

Ye Zong leaned back on the sofa and shook his head.

He just hasn't figured it out yet!

If he had thought it through, he would have sent someone to trip up Mr. Fang long ago.

Simply bankrupting the Fang family would not be enough to relieve Ye Zong's hatred.

Ye Pei was silent for a while, then said, "Actually, I think we don't need to intervene now, just let them fend for themselves."

Ye Zong and Tan Zheng looked at him at the same time: "What do you mean?"

Song Ya was also a little confused.

Ye Pei expressed his own analysis: "Without Ranran, their family will definitely not let Fang Yan's condition get worse. In addition, Fang Qishan and Cai Lianhua are in prison. The remaining Fang family members and other collateral branches don't really care about old man Fang's life or death. They only care about their own interests. When the company suffers losses for a period of time, they will definitely not sit idly by. At that time, the fact that Fang Yan is a lucky star will definitely be brought up again..."

Ye Zong immediately understood what he meant: "Are you saying that they will find someone else to give Fang Yan a heart?"

Ye Pei nodded: "And this person can only be someone from the Fang family."

Blood relatives are less likely to reject the heart.

More importantly, Mr. Fang is now in the hospital.

An old man in his sixties, who knows if he can survive this?

Song Ya and Tan Zheng figured out the key point, and both of them were full of disbelief: "... After all, Mr. Fang is still the head of the Fang family, so no one should be so blatant, right?"

Ye Pei didn't say anything.

Ye Zong looked at Tan Zheng and laughed: "Have you forgotten? Zhang Xiong said that he had someone tell Fang Yan that she is a lucky star."

Tan Zheng widened her eyes in horror: "You mean——"

Ye Zong and Ye Pei nodded at the same time.

Human nature is evil, let alone the Fang family, who are complete egoists.

In order to survive, Fang Yan was even willing to transfer schools on his own initiative, which shows that he is very scheming at such a young age.

Fang Qishan's plan failed, and he was thrown into prison together with Cai Lianhua. Fang Sheng was nowhere to be found. Now the only one left in the Fang family is the pampered Old Lady Fang.

In order to survive, will Fang Yan really not have any other thoughts?

The author has something to say:

You’re late!
