Upon hearing Old Master Ye's words, Xi Quan raised an eyebrow and said, "From what you're saying, it sounds like you have a lot of objections?"
Grandpa Ye pursed his lips, wanting to say something, but after glancing at Xi Quan, he swallowed his words.
“If it weren’t for Ye Qing, you wouldn’t be so comfortable now.” Xi Quan couldn’t stand anyone saying anything bad about Ye Qing. Although Grandpa Ye hadn’t said it out loud, Xi Quan had seen it and couldn’t stand it either.
"I'm living comfortably now because of my son's money. Since Ye Qing took my son's money, it's only right that he lets me live comfortably." Old Master Ye didn't buy Xi Quan's words.
Although Grandpa Ye talked about the history between Ye Qing and Ye Shuang on TV, it didn't mean that he had no opinions about Ye Qing. After all, he was so old, and some established things were deeply rooted, so it wasn't easy to change them.
“The money is indeed your son’s, but if Ye Shuang had gotten that money, you wouldn’t be so comfortable now.”
Xi Quan's unhurried words made Old Master Ye's expression freeze instantly. All the words were stuck in his throat, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
After staring at Xi Quan for a long time, the old man said impatiently, "Speak, what exactly did you come here for? Ask me everything while I still have breath in my mouth."
Xi Quan didn't care about the old man's attitude, after all, his own maternal grandfather sometimes treated him even worse.
"Is Ye Qing really Ye Shuwei's daughter?" Xi Quan asked.
Grandpa Ye was stunned for a long time upon hearing Xi Quan's words. "Why do you ask that? Yes, otherwise why would we have wanted Ye Qing to have the transplant surgery in the first place? But, this child is unfilial..."
Xi Quan didn't let the old man finish speaking: "But Ye Qing's biological mother is not Xu Daye's sister. Ye Qing and Xu Daye have done a paternity test, and there is no blood relationship between Ye Qing and Xu Daye, which means it is impossible for him to be Ye Qing's biological uncle."
Old Master Ye was interrupted halfway through his sentence. To be honest, he was very angry. However, after hearing what Xi Quan said, Old Master Ye remained silent for a long time, and then asked incredulously, "How is that possible? Xu Daye even came to Nancheng to find me for his sister back then. But so many years have passed, let's not talk about these things."
Take Ye Qing for example. To find out if Ye Qing was a suitable candidate for the transplant, Shu Wei was very cautious and conducted multiple tests. He was just in case something went wrong, so he divided the blood sample taken from Ye Qing into several portions and tested them several times. Therefore, there's no doubt about it.”
Seeing the old man's confident look, Xi Quan told him what he had recently learned about Ye Qing's background.
After he finished speaking, he saw that Old Master Ye was completely stunned. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but he seemed to not know what to say. In any case, he looked extremely surprised.
After the initial surprise, she wanted to ask Xi Quan something, but she didn't say anything.
Although he didn't ask anything, Xi Quan seemed to have noticed something from the subtle changes in Xi Quan's emotions.
The old man seemed quite calm after the initial shock and surprise.
So Xi Quan asked, "Do you know something?"
Grandpa Ye didn't answer Xi Quan's question directly, but muttered to himself, "But that's not right. I know that Xu Daye's sister has a child. When I saw them, I could tell she was pregnant. If Ye Qing isn't her child, where is her child?"
Xi Quan didn't speak. In fact, this was the key question. If he knew what had happened back then, he would know how Ye Qing ended up in Xiaoyao Village.
According to Quan Zhen and the police, Ye Qing's biological mother gave birth to two children, one of whom she intended to raise herself. If that's the case, then Ye Qing must have been given away, and to someone trusted by Ye Qing's biological mother.
Since we don't know now, there's no need to dwell on this issue. Xi Quan thought for a moment and asked the old man, "Besides having a child with Ye Qing's mother, who else could your son Ye Shuwei possibly have a child with?"
"How would I know? Take you for example. Besides Ye Qing, who else have you been with? You wouldn't even tell Ye Qing, let alone tell your elders, right?"
Xi Quan didn't speak, he just stared at the old man. His expression said it all: he didn't believe what the old man said.
Moreover, when Xi Quan is silent, he exudes an imposing aura that commands respect without anger. Even though Old Master Ye has lived almost his entire life, he still feels a bit intimidated when he sees Xi Quan like this.
"No, what do you mean? What do you want to know?"
“I just want to know who Ye Qing’s biological mother might be, that’s all. And I don’t think there’s any point in you keeping it a secret. Besides, you’re only able to live so comfortably here because of Ye Qing. If you know something but don’t say it, don’t blame me for instigating Ye Qing to abandon you.” After Xi Quan finished speaking, he emphasized, “I can absolutely do it. You can ask around and see how I treat my grandfather.”
"You..." The old man was a little angry at Xi Quan's threat, but he couldn't say anything because he really had to rely on Ye Qing and Xi Quan to support him and spend money on him, since he couldn't rely on Ye Shuang at all.
Seeing the old man deep in thought, Xi Quan said, "You might not want to talk about it because it's not something to be proud of for you. But before you knew all this, Ye Qing's background was that your son forced Xu Daye's sister to have Ye Qing. That's not something to be proud of either. What Ye Shuwei did to Ye Qing is not something a father should do. Could there be anything more shameful to talk about? If you cared about your reputation, none of this would have happened."
"Xi Quan, is this how you beg for help?!" Old Master Ye questioned angrily.
With a cold laugh, Xi Quan said, "You're the one who doesn't understand the situation. I'm not begging you now, I'm just asking you what exactly happened back then. If you don't tell us, it's perfectly normal for us to stop covering your expenses at the sanatorium until we know what your relationship with Ye Qing really is."
“I told you, this money belongs to my son…”
"Most of your son's money was put into scholarships at Nancheng University by Ye Qing. How much did you spend on your hospital stay? How much does it cost for you to stay in the sanatorium for a month now? Do you think the money is still your son's? It's all Ye Qing's own money. Ye Qing never really wanted your money back then; he was just angry. So, Ye Qing didn't keep your son's money for himself."
After saying that, Xi Quan looked at the old man and stood up from the sofa: "So whether you say it or not is up to you. You don't have to say it either. Then think about the future."
After saying that, Xi Quan turned to leave.
As they approached the door of the old man's hospital room and were about to open it, Xi Quan heard the old man say, "Wait!"
