Ye Chengen was stunned. Although he was not the head of the Ye family now, it would be his sooner or later.
Moreover, the old man has been getting old in recent years, and he has been handling most of the family affairs. Now, in front of so many servants, where is his face as the future head of the family?
"Get out," Ye Taihe said in a deep voice.
The group of subordinates who had just arrived lowered their heads, bowed, and left.
Ye Chengen covered half of his face and remained silent.
Ye Taihe's expression softened slightly. He walked up to Ye Xingchen and showed a kind face: "Xingchen, I am Ye Taihe, your grandfather."
"I can't accept that." Ye Xingchen raised his head. "In the eyes of the Ye family, I'm just a wild child who grew up in the countryside. How dare I have anything to do with your Ye family?"
“Your Ye family is of noble status and bloodline; I am not worthy of you.”
"Are you still angry with me? I was confused back then and did such a thing. I apologize to you. Have you... forgiven me?" Ye Taihe bowed slightly to Ye Xingchen.
This scene baffled Ye Chengen. He couldn't understand why his father was so respectful to Ye Xingchen. He didn't even care about the dignity of being the head of the Ye family.
"Patriarch Ye, I dare not accept your apology." Ye Xingchen sneered, "I should thank you for not drowning me back then, so that I, your inexplicable grandson, would not have disgraced your Ye family."
"So much time has passed, and you... still won't forgive me?" Ye Taihe stared at Ye Xingchen: "If you can come back, I will immediately hand over the Ye family to you."
"Dad, what did you say?" Ye Chengen was dumbfounded. The future of the Ye family was his, so why did the old man suddenly want to hand it over to Ye Xingchen? Was he getting senile?
"Shut up." Ye Taihe glanced at him coldly, and Ye Chengen shuddered, immediately falling silent.
"Haha, forgive me? If I forgive you, can my father come back to life? If I forgive you, can the suffering my family of three has endured be undone?"
Ye Xingchen laughed in extreme anger: "Give the Ye family to me? Don't you think too highly of your Ye family? Even a dog would despise it."
"Ye Xingchen, don't go too far. He's still your grandfather, after all," Ye Chengen said angrily.
"I told you to shut up." Ye Taihe slapped him again.
Ye Chengen finally shut up. He covered his face and looked at Ye Xingchen with a venomous expression.
"What happened before was indeed my fault. Come back, child, I will find a way to make it up to you," Ye Taihe sighed.
"Go back? Ha, you're asking me to go back because you need something from me, right?" Ye Xingchen sneered.
"What?" Ye Taihe's expression changed slightly.
“I understand how to observe qi. I can see that the five elements in your body are disordered, all five qi are weak, and your essence, qi and spirit are declining, and your blood vessels are stiff. This is leukemia.”
"How did you know?" Ye Taihe asked, his expression shocked.
Only a handful of people knew that he was terminally ill: his own son and Yuan Zhengde, the head physician of the Imperial Medical Academy.
Because of his extraordinary status, if any of his secrets were leaked, the Ye family would be targeted.
The situation is unstable right now, and his youngest son, Ye Chengen, is only so-so. So he has to keep a normal appearance in front of outsiders. This matter has never been leaked before. How did Ye Xingchen find out?
"In Yanjing, the only person who could give you this disease and still keep your face looking radiant is probably the legendary doctor Yuan Zhengde, right?" Ye Xingchen sneered.
Ye Taihe was shocked and speechless for a long time. Yes, Yuan Zhengde had just left him.
"So what? What exactly are you trying to say?" Ye Chengen said angrily.
"What I'm trying to say is that Yuan Zhengde has witnessed my medical skills, and he also knows that this disease isn't incurable, but rather that his own medical skills are insufficient." Ye Xingchen raised an eyebrow: "I think he must have told you that only I can cure your terminal illness, right?"
Ye Taihe's gaze sharpened as he looked at Ye Xingchen: "That's right, he told me that there is a divine doctor surnamed Ye whose medical skills far surpass his. He said that my illness can definitely be cured if he takes action."
"And I learned that the miracle doctor surnamed Ye that he mentioned was you."
“If nothing unexpected happens, it will be me.” Ye Xingchen nodded. “And I can tell you with certainty that I won’t have to put in much effort to treat your illness. Xingchen Group’s newly developed Anti-Cancer No. 1 has been refining with the addition of three rare and precious herbs.”
"Then I will perform acupuncture to open up your eight extraordinary meridians and reduce the blood toxins, and your illness will be cured. The whole process will not exceed three weeks, and I can also guarantee that your lifespan will not be affected and you can live like a normal person."
"Are you telling the truth?" Ye Taihe's breathing became rapid.
He cannot fall. Returning to the Ye family is a crucial step. In Yanjing, the Ye family is indeed a top-tier clan, but if he doesn't fight for this step, the Ye family's position will be unstable.
Moreover, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that he absolutely could not miss. Ye Xingchen's words undoubtedly gave him great hope.
"Of course it's true. I never lie. After all, medicine is a very rigorous thing. If I can cure it, I can cure it; if I can't, I can't. I want patients to live happily and die knowing the truth," Ye Xingchen said with a smile.
"What...are your conditions?" Ye Taihe looked at Ye Xingchen with a complicated expression.
This grandson, whom he abandoned more than 20 years ago, has now grown to a level that ordinary people cannot reach.
He probably never dreamed that one day he would fall into the hands of this grandson. He knew that Ye Xingchen would not easily treat his illness.
"Haha, what conditions do you think I would offer?" Ye Xingchen leaned closer to Ye Taihe, his tone chilling: "Or you can offer me a condition that I can't refuse, and I'll immediately deal with you. Don't even mention handing over the Ye family to me; even if you were willing to hand it over, I might not want it."
"Ye Xingchen, name your price," Ye Chengen said. "As long as you can afford it, our Ye family can afford it."
"Shut up, you stupid son, okay?" Ye Xingchen glanced at Ye Chengen; this guy was simply an idiot.
"Get out." Ye Taihe's face darkened. His son was over forty years old, had no shrewdness whatsoever, and wasn't very bright either. If the Ye family were really handed over to him, he wouldn't be able to rest in peace even if he died.
"Yes." Although Ye Chengen didn't know what he had said wrong, he still bowed obediently and left.
"Child, I really know I was wrong about what happened that time. Please give me a chance, and give the Ye family a chance too, okay?" Ye Taihe said in an almost pleading tone.
"Why should I give you a chance?" Ye Xingchen retorted.
