"Have you finished reading? If you have, why aren't you getting out of here?" Xia Hanyue stepped forward, her expression icy.
"I have a few words to say to my nephew. Does the Xia family intend to stop me?" Ye Chengen smiled and pointed at Ye Xingchen: "Xingchen, come here. I have a few words to say to you."
Ye Xingchen did not move.
Judging from Ye Chengen's attitude alone, it's clear that he and his mother's branch of the family are irreconcilable enemies.
If it weren't for his grandfather, whom he had never met, his father might not have died, so he didn't have any good feelings towards the Ye family.
"Say what you have to say here. There's no need to stand up close to say it," Ye Xingchen said calmly.
“Boy, the Ye family is your home. In the Xia family, you are just an outsider.” Ye Chengen frowned.
"Watch your mouth. Everyone in the Xia family is my relative." Ye Xingchen glanced at him coldly.
"Heh, after all, he grew up in the countryside and doesn't know any manners." Ye Chengen sneered, "If my elder brother knew his son was like this, he probably wouldn't rest in peace even in the afterlife."
"The reason I'm talking to you is because you're my elder. I don't want to make things difficult for you out of consideration for our blood relation."
Ye Xingchen's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "But I'm giving you face now. Are you trying to escalate this to the point where I want to slap your face?"
Ye Xingchen was so angry he was almost ready to kill someone.
Twenty years ago, the Ye family separated his parents and abandoned him in the countryside. Now that he has returned, the Ye family still wants to cause trouble.
Even a clay figure has some temper; do you really think Ye Xingchen is a pushover?
"How dare you, brat..."
Ye Chengen was furious and was about to arrogantly reprimand Ye Xingchen when Ye Xingchen slapped him across the face.
"I'm now reunited with my family. If you don't want to die, get out."
*Slap...* Ye Chengen's mouth was filled with blood from the slap. He wanted to say something, but Ye Xingchen immediately slapped him again.
"Are you all dead? Didn't you see me getting beaten?" Ye Chengen was furious. Were all the men he brought idiots?
His bodyguards then realized what was happening and rushed forward to attack.
Just then, Zhou Fuwen stepped forward, made a gesture with his right hand, and struck out with his palm.
Thud, thud, thud—the Ye family's bodyguards all fell to the ground.
After all, he was a peak Heaven Realm expert. With a grab in the air, he locked Ye Chengen's neck.
"You..." Ye Chengen was speechless. He felt his neck being choked so tightly that he was almost suffocating.
"Young man from the Ye family, today is my senior brother's family reunion. I don't want to kill anyone on this joyous occasion. Don't make trouble for yourself."
As Zhou Fuwen spoke, he withdrew his internal energy. Ye Chengen clutched his neck and coughed violently for a long time before he came to his senses.
He nodded and grinned maliciously: "Good, good, now your Xia family has the confidence. I'll just say one sentence and then leave."
"Go ahead and say it," Zhou Fuwen glanced at him.
It took Ye Chengen a long time to recover. He loosened his buttons, took a few breaths, and then walked up to Ye Xingchen: "Xingchen, after all, you are a member of the Ye family."
“Your father passed away early, leaving you as his only bloodline. If you don’t introduce him, you’ll be coming back with me now.”
"I'm sorry, but I mind." Ye Xingchen sneered, "When the Ye family went to such extremes back then, did they ever consider that I was my father's only bloodline left in this world?"
"How can you be so stubborn? The Xia family all have different surnames, and your surname is Ye. Can't you tell the difference?" Ye Chengen's face was somewhat unpleasant.
"I'm not a child anymore, of course I can tell the difference. Tell me, why is the Ye family so eager for me to go back?" Ye Xingchen asked.
"Star Group is yours?" Ye Chengen had no choice: "We just want to get some shares of Star Group from you. It's our own family, I think..."
"Don't even think about it." Ye Xingchen laughed: "I understand, so that's what you were planning."
"The Ye family has a good business sense. They can see how strong the future of Xingchen Group is. But I'm sorry, I'm not buying."
"Don't think we're after those shares in Xingchen Group. After all, you're surnamed Ye. The bigger your company grows, the more people will be watching you. We're here to protect you." Ye Chengen said, somewhat embarrassed and angry.
“That’s even less necessary. He’s my own son, and I will naturally protect him. I guarantee that within ten years, no one in the domestic Xingchen Group will be able to match him, and we will even be able to expand into the international market.” Xia Jingyi said coldly, “The Ye family’s wishful thinking has been heard across half of Yanjing City.”
"Are you really not going to consider this? The Ye family will offer you a price you can't refuse." Ye Chengen looked at Ye Xingchen.
"Oh, I'd like to know, how much of a price would I be unable to refuse?" Ye Xingchen smiled: "Ye Chengen, I don't owe the Ye family anything."
"Maybe if you try to appeal to family ties, I'll be more polite to you because of our blood relation with the Ye family."
"But now, you've shattered even the last vestige of my attachment to the Ye family. Now, get out of here."
Ye Chengen's face was extremely ugly. Given his status, being beaten by Ye Xingchen in front of everyone and then being driven away was something he couldn't swallow.
But seeing the cold glint in Ye Xingchen's eyes, as if he was about to make a move again, he quickly distanced himself from Ye Xingchen.
"Fine, Ye Xingchen, you chose this path yourself, so don't regret it." Ye Chengen gritted his teeth and said, "I don't think you can resolve your grudges with the An family on your own."
"You mean the An family?" Ye Xingchen laughed: "If An Zhiguo is not satisfied, he can come to me. I have a hundred ways to kill him."
"Arrogant! Just you wait. Sooner or later, you'll learn to back down from your arrogant attitude." Ye Chengen glared at Ye Xingchen with hatred before turning and leaving.
He couldn't swallow his anger and came here arrogantly, only to get beaten up and fail to complete the task the old man had given him.
He sat in the car for a long time before letting out a long sigh. Then he took out a cell phone and dialed a number: "Dad, he refused."
"He refused? That's only natural. The Ye family treated him like that back then, so it's understandable that he feels this way now." An old voice came from the other end of the phone: "Come back first, and we'll discuss this further."
"Dad, I just don't understand. So what if Xingchen Group is powerful? Is it worth our Ye family being so humble to them?" Ye Chengen said, looking indignant.
The Ye family is considered a top-tier aristocratic family in Yanjing, so he was truly wronged by the beating he received today.
If they don't get their revenge, the Ye family will likely be trampled on by the Xia family in the future, which is not a good thing.
